ABOVE: Freshmen girls show their talent with frisbees in this new competition at FUN AND GAMES. 2 “A New Look At W.C.” The school year of 1980-81 was a year of change. We started the year with anxieties of having a new principal and vice-principal. Mr. Fox, our principal, has improved the relations between students and the administration. He has allowed gum chewing and also asked the teachers to keep homework down to a minimum over vacations. Our vice-principal, Mr. Gibson, has the hard task of keeping discipline in the school. In-school detention was a new form of punishment to be used. Being out of your classes for a day sounds like the ultimate dream, but when in detention you cannot talk to other students, walk with them, or even eat with them. Alienation is complete. Is it really a piece of cake sitting in a small room without windows, staring at the blank cement walls? Seven and one-half hours of classes is plenty long enough, but seven and one-half hours of detention is unbearable. As the custom goes, the freshmen found WC bewildering. The first few weeks were experimental, as they became familiar with the school, its policies, and the faculty. The freshmen saw many new faces and made several new friends. This is the first year that they had a chance to choose some of their classes. The lunch schedule was also a new experience. This is the first year that the freshmen had two separate lunches in which they were intermingled with upperclassmen. 3 ABOVE: Ronnie Genius Shoemaker experimenting in Biology class, and taking a Falcon's serious view of academics.

MIDDLE: Laura Wilson, the next Pierre Cardin, showing her latest designs for the French class sale. BOTTOM: Grayson Cox as Honor Society president leads initiation ceremony. It Takes All Kinds Each individual in our school has a certain uniqueness which is combined with the other students to form WC. There are students who show leadership through the different organizations they are involved in. There are the athletes of our school who strive to accomplish victory and help heighten the spirit of WC. There is a great band which devotes hours of hard work and determination in order to retain the state championship year after year. The studious people set high standards for themselves and also encourage other people to do so. Along with the good comes the bad. The troublemakers of the school are always getting into mischief, but what student doesn't see the humor in a harmless prank played on a teacher? Even the Joe Schmoes play an important part at WC. Without the average student, our school would be like eating an Oreo without any creamy middle. And last but not least, there are always the clowns of WC. These people provide entertainment and add a touch of happiness to everyone's heart at one time or another. All of these unique people linked together make up the overall personality of WC. 5 RIGHT: Robert King helps Mrs. Varner videotape In the Spotlight.'' Robert has an interesting hobby which includes a home computer. BELOW: Early to bed, early to rise means early to school for some. ABOVE: Mike Richardson enjoys English class perhaps because he has learned to know Thoreau well. RIGHT: Susan Shriver and Bill Vore are ready to dive in for the noon hour. 6 Obvious Contradictions The often complained about lunches seem to be the biggest spectacle of the day as the students race to the front of the line. Isn't it amazing that when the noon hour bell rings, students risk life and limb to stampede down the halls at a break-neck speed, trampling one another to be the first in line . . . for a lunch that the same people will inevitably say is awful? The use of horsemeat and hog kidneys in the hamburger is only a myth. In fact, the school serves one of the most nutritional lunches that can be purchased. Where else can you get a well-balanced meal for such a low price? Apples, bananas, and cookies are now offered in the new a la carte line. There has even been a juice machine installed in the commons. The cooks have also added a spice to WC life by serving pizza and tacos. Another deception at WC begins in the parking lot. Mornings at WC are extraordinary. Not only do students who drive come to school at 7:30 A.M. to sit in the parking lot, but they rush madly to class at five till eight. What has caused this strange phenomenon to take place each year? Is there a new love affair developing between students and school? Is the truth of this matter that the students would rather be talking to their friends, getting a good parking space, or doing a little smoking and kissing instead of watching Captain Kangaroo' at home? 7 TOP: Typical senior, Bobby Hesser, chowing down on cafeteria food. BOTTOM: Susie Ward, Sharon Barr, and Marsha Younger led by Gay Fetters are the hottest “rock” group since Queen. Close Encounters Of The Falcon Kind Our Falcons wanted to prove they were really different—like none before and certainly like none to come. But was this really the way to go about it? This case in point comes to mind. An innocent parent comes to visit WC for the first time. He looks down a dimly lit corridor and what does he see? Tweety birds, old men, monsters, pigs, and other strange characters. Immediately he wonders if he is in the right place. What are these assaults on his eyes? Are these human, animals, or something from outer-space? He rushes into the office and asks for the principal. The secretary, Sally Smith, calls out, Mr. Fox! The parent upon hearing this breaks out in a cold sweat. To his relief, the principal is human. Mr. Fox, a sly man, instantly solves the mystery. He explains to the parent that this is Spook the Patriots Day and all the students dress up to show their spirit. They really are normal and great students underneath those costumes. The students at WC have definitely proved that they are set apart from other schools and in a class of their own. TOP: Mr. Simmons is living proof that wrinkles come fast as a teacher. ABOVE: Tweety bird thinks studying is for the birds. RIGHT: The WCHS majorettes do their thing'' during halftime at the basketball game. Lots of laughs from the crowd. 8 Jim Woolf is out of the contest when his water balloon bursts and showers him with moisture as Jeremy Galbreath looks on. A from the Falcon's view. There are activities ranging from the Annual Staff to the Youth Advisory committee at W.C. All types of clubs and organizations are open to students. Homecoming, Prom, and other activities will forever bring back a treasured memory of friends and good times at W.C. But most importantly these activities add life and color to our school which would otherwise be all work and no play. And when Falcons play, they really play. Take a look for yourself. 9 i ! Homecoming: j Rain On My Parade | Oceanography seemed to be an appropriate theme for Homecoming 1980. But what the heck ... if we got wet with water balloons, we were all soaked to the bone anyway. Despite the cold weather the Juniors were hot. The Class of '82 walked away with their first spirit stick. Unfortunately the Homecoming parade was a wash out. The class floats stayed in their prospective garages and barns while the storm passed over. The WC football team had its share of bad luck in the game against the Union County Patriots. Although they gave it all they had, the final score was 14-8, in favor of the Patriots. But Falcon spirit wasn't dampened by the turn of events. After the game we danced to the beat of Waterstreet, the band's name being apropos to the evening. TOP RIGHT: By popular vote the honor of becoming Homecoming queen went to Miss Tina Norton.

Oh sure, it was hectic at times, like Mike's millions of lines to memorize, breaking in a new make-up crew, who did a really good if not GOOPY job, all that sticky gray hair spray (Yuk!) and trying to teach Neil to say Irrelevant ; but those only made it all the more exciting. With Miss Garner behind us (what strength!) all the way, we worked and memorized, and shook like leaves on opening night. Hugs all around and whispers of Break a leg, and we were on. With the help of Mr. Farlow, Rev. Merriman, and Mr. Drill and his famous tech crew, we did a really good job that night. After the house had cleared and the make-up was Noxemaed off, we all breathed a big sigh of relief and said Thank God it's over, and secretly, Thank God there will be another play next year! a fl U f I • • • • = sz ii ff • f f f • f • • s= = f f • • = — ff • • Although the props were few the message was conveyed vividly through the talents of the cast.

In The Spotlight In the Spotlight , a television show sponsored by Mrs. Varner, is a new innovation at WC. This show's sole purpose is to present the high school's activities to the community and is pre-recorded and televised on cable channel 12 on Tuesday evenings. These versatile cast crew members gave up their time and started from scratch, knowing very little about producing a TV show, and have become polished producers. Mrs. Varner says, Our cameramen are all Freshmen and they too are learning as we go. In a few years I believe our TV show will really be a polished and superior program, but as with all new things, there are 'bugs' to work out, and experiments to try.

She hopes the club will be able to make several field trips to art museums and arrange for art students to talk personally with practicing artists in our community. Mrs. Rosenberg realized a need for such a program as there is an artistic potential at W.C. She pointed out, I see a growing interest in art which makes our potential greater. And with students starting the program sooner and getting involved in community art projects, that potential will become more visable. The art program itself is making some improvements in class offerings. Now art will be open to Freshmen with Drawing I and Design. After the first year of art, classes become advanced level with more specialization. Semester courses to follow are Drawing II, Painting, Printmaking, Jewelry, Ceramics, and Textiles. Fellowship of Christian Athletes Has A Game Plan F.C.A. sponsored by Mr. Bush and Mrs. Knasinski is the inspiring nucleus for our school's athletic program. Mrs. K. explains, F.C.A. provides positive leadership based on Christian principles. Huddle meetings held in homes are a combination of Bible readings and a discussion of athletes' frustrations, anger, and attitudes as they relate to sports. This sharing will enable athletes to deal with problems in a Christian fashion and become good leaders for younger students who look up to them. Choir Goes On Tour The Concert Choir traveled to Indianapolis on December 16 to perform at Monument Circle. They enjoyed a wonderful day shopping, skating on the Circle, eating at Paramount Music Palace, and they even saw Santa Claus. The Concert Choir as well as the Mixed Chorus had a successful year. They managed to keep quite busy with the fall concert, Christmas concert, and preparing for the musical, Anything Goes. Also there are those songs for Extravaganza. 20 ABOVE: The Winchester Community High School Concert Choir with Mr Buckley as choir director.

American for the transatlantic cruise. The 1934 Cole Porter musical, ANYTHING GOES ' was a delightful story of romance, mistaken identity, gangsters, and priests performed by a talented cast. Billy (Terry Mays) is a young stowaway on a ship attempting to win his girl Hope (Wendy Prescott) back from an Englishman, Sir Evelyn (Scott Hill). Billy soon finds out that he is traveling on the ticket of Public Enemy No. 1, and turns to his friend Reno (Stephanie Whitesel), an evangelist, turned night club owner, for help. With the aid of her four angels, she keeps the trip exciting. Moonface Martin (Mitch Myre) who is Public Enemy No. 13 and his gun-chew-ing sidekick Bonnie (Sandy Buckley) are able to disguise Billy from his boss, Mr. Whitney (Jack Markley) long enough to win back the love of his girl. ABOVE: Scott Hill caught with his pants down. RIGHT: The Four angels are Chastity (Sherry Cummings), Virtue (Melissa Locke), Purity (Debra Neudecker), Charity (Naomi Spade) posing with Reno (Stephanie Whitesel). 22 Oops ... I can't believe I said that! The cast reflects on light-hearted moments of practice and performance. Stephanie Whitesel is embarassed when she recalls the time she walked off stage and yelled for a snot rag unaware that her body microphone was still on. Scott Hill admits that Stephanie wasn't the only one who goofed. He got his tongue tied and said one of his lines backwards, as did Terry Mays. Terry got the words suit and outfit mixed up, and asked Sandy Buckley for a sailor outsuit . Sandy replied, Sure, I'll get you a sailor outsuit. And then there was Tom Dillow who yelled, All aboard, that's going ashore. When asked what line he would remember, Mitch Hyre simply grinned and said, There's something wrong here. 23 Three Clubs that provide Law, Order, and Support Model Legislature is an organization in which students learn the basics of state level politics. The students begin the year with writing bills and assigning the bills to the proper committees. The students participate in either the House or the Senate where the bills are debated, amended and considered for passage into laws. Offices held by WC students were, Speaker of the House, Trent Champ; Assistant Minority Leader in the House, John Burkhardt; Assistant Majority Leader in the Senate, Dan Clevenger; Assistant Whip in the Senate, Tom Ret-ter. The Principal's Advisory Committee was a new idea at WC this year, consisting of selected Student Council members, as well as class presidents, and various athletic and organizational representatives. This committee met monthly with Mr. Fox to discuss school policies, activities and ideas for improvement. Among the improvements were a new fruit juice machine and a planned conversation area for seniors. Established to close the communication gap between the administration and the student body, the group has proved very successful. Health Careers Club is made up of students interested in pursuing health related occupations. Their activities this year included a visit to the Randolph County Development Center, as well as the school for the deaf in Indianapolis. Two senior members, Gynnie Keesling and Pam Longworth attended a two day nutrition seminar in Indianapolis. 24 The Nucleus The officers of Student Council this year are: Liz Snyder, president; Sheryl Meek, vice-president; Shelley Alexander, secretary; and Royce Cole, treasurer. Mrs. Chalfant and Mr. Howell are the sponsors for this group. Activities this year have included the annual Homecoming dance. Donut Days, a collection for Muscular Dystrophy, and Carnation Day along with the All-School Carnival. Convocations sponsored by the Student Council this year were the Gospel Couriers, Freedom Jam, Bob Reans (hypnotist), and the Air Force Jazz Band. Because of their extensive activities this group is the center around which the Student Body revolves.

Yet the carnival served the purpose of providing a fun evening on a cold February night. ABOVE: The Carnival although primarily for children, attracted all ages. 25 r M The WCHS chapter of FBLA has acquired a knack for winning. The State Leadership Conferences held, at Ball State, provided a chance for outstanding high school business leaders to compete in their special field. Some specific areas include typing, accounting, shorthand, and public speaking. For the fourth consecutive year our chapter has been named the most outstanding chapter in the state. This award was received by Vice President, Kelly Moore. WC also received many other awards. Brian Minnich was named Who's Who in FBLA, which is one of the highest honors attainable, and was also named Mr. FBLA. Phoebe Short was honored by being named Ms. FBLA. FBLA's initiation ceremony was held this fall with guest speaker Joe Stanley who was a former WC basketball coach. He spoke on Positive Mental Attitude. After the presentation, refreshments were served. This Organization provides more than competition for its members. This year FBLA has taken many field trips and toured office complexes such as General Telephone, Warner Gear and Ball Corporation. Our students were particularly impressed with their visit to North American Van Lines in Fort Wayne. They also sponsored an interesting convocation featuring Michael Broome, who has a delightful way of presenting his speech on Positive Thinking. FBLA does not stop with the local organization but is very active on the state level. Many of our chapter officers have the double task of local and state business affairs. The WC chapter, having only been initiated for seven years has grown remarkably fast and brought about many positive changes for the students here at WCHS. 26 UTURE USINESS EADERS MERICA FBLA OFFICERS BOTTOM LEFT, FRONT ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT: Kelly Moore, Vice President; Rhonda Rook, Historian.

This year three senior members (Laura Wilson, Betsy Hyre Stewart, and Bill Clark) participated in an elementary teaching program; teaching Spanish to third, fifth, and sixth graders. A trip to Mexico is in the making for the summer; including such glamorous stops as Puerto Vallarta (like on Love Boat ). And many interested students are busying themselves, preparing for the trip. Raising Funds!!! The Spanish Club's fund raising projects this year included, selling Christmas greenery, Chocolate candy bars, and the group brought a new innovation to WC by playing cupid with a computer dating system. Initiation this year was rather unusual. The initiates experienced the humiliating, but humorous day, wearing bull horns on their heads and rings through their noses. Each proved his dedication by tolerating ridicule of the student body, to become a devoted member. What a price to pay!!! 28 MIDDLE RIGHT: Spanish Club initiates, Nancy Keener and Shawna Marquess wear their horns on their heads and rings through their noses with pride. LOWER LEFT: Sehoritas eat authentic mexican cuisine during a Spanish Club party. LOWER RIGHT: Mrs. Knasinski stresses the importance of enunciating Spanish syllables. Francais The French Club has an even bigger heart than the Val-o-grams they sell, make and deliver on Valentine's Day. They have sponsored a Haitian orphan, Fritx Augustin, through World Visions International, for three years now. And it's safe to say—they bring joy to someone other than the sweethearts at WC. With a vivacious president, Laura Wilson, as their example, the French Club has been a fun-loving group. A day of Christmas shopping and a meal at an elegant French restaurant is one of the many activities the group has done together this year. It is no wonder this Club plays a significant role in the extra-curricular life of WC. LEFT: All members participate in the candlelight ceremony at the French Club initiation. National Honor Society Initiation of the Honor Society was held on the evening of November 18. Mr. Fox, our principal, was the guest speaker for the ceremony. Honor Society participated in their annual badge sales for Sectional, as well as helping tour eighth graders around WC, in order to familiarize them with their future setting. The organization also sponsored a panel discussion for alumni Honor Society members to answer senior's questions concerning college. 30 Future Farmers of America This year has been very successful for the FFA. They did well in judging contests and received first in the poultry contest. Hoosier Farmers Degrees were awarded to Ted Thornburg and Jon Peacock. For the first time in the chapter's history, two members were elected to a district office at the FFA State Convention. John Burkhardt was elected Vice-President and Dan Clevener was elected Treasurer. During the convention, Dan also received second in the State Poultry Contest. In November, chapter members John Burkhardt, Dan Clevenger, Ted Thornburg and Jon Peacock, attended the National Convention in Kansas City. The convention was attended by over 22,000 FFA members from across the Nation. The officers for this year were; John Burkhardt (President), Dan Clevenger (Secretary), Jon Peacock (Treasurer), Jim Lewis (reporter), Jeff Baldwin (Sentinel), Joe McKinley (Chaplin), Gay Fetters (Sweetheart) and Mr. Snyder (Advisor). no. 1 again ! The people of our community, as well as the state and even the nation, recognize the successfulness of the Winchester Community High School Marching Show Band. However, a few are aware of all the painstaking ingredients that make this band No. 1. The ingredients of DESIRE, DRIVE, DISCIPLINE, and DEDICATION are what really make the band tick. The members practice for long hours, work to raise funds, perform with every fiber of their beings, and above all they stick together. In the end, all these things pay off. For when our band enters the field of competition all else is forgotten but the captivating performance of the Indiana State Champs for the fourth consecutive year.

The band and majorettes captured the mood of each music era, with such well known favorites as In the Mood, Charleston , and Sentimental Journey . Mr. Glenn Weil, music director of Driver Jr. High School, added to the jazz age atmosphere with a trombone solo, and the Swing Choir contributed to the spectacular performance with a Barnum Circus salute. Of course, the Wonderful World of Disney, kept the little ones entertained with Goofy's birthday party, as the characters went into the audience to sing and shake hands. The 1980 film of the band's State Championship Review sent a thrill through the crowd, and emotions were stirred with the photos of the senior band members. The limitless talent of this year's band was displayed with the solos of the Stage Band: Trent Champ, flu-gelhorn; Gay Fetters, tenor sax; Marsha Younger, alto sax; and Dan Clevenger, trombone. Directed by Mr. Max Jones the band attracted crowds for miles around. After experiencing a performance like this it is no surprise that people look forward to the Extravaganza each year.

The guests entered from the patio decorated with a trellis and lanterns. Upon entrance they found a park bordered with a stone wall and shadowed by a midnight blue sky. The trees, plants, and fountains added a realistic touch. Tammy Addington was crowned queen by Mr. Fox, and Jon Peacock began a W.C. tradition by being crowned the first king. As they led the Grand March, people of the community admired the guests in their formal attire. Cross Winds provided the music for the Prom. The merchants, civic clubs, and junior mothers provided a successful after-Prom, serving a variety of beautifully prepared foods as well as donating several door prizes.

Ralph Waldo Emerson The 154 member Senior class graduated in a lovely one and a half hour ceremony on Friday, May 22. Seniors were involved in making their graduation a memorable event with class officers all taking part by presenting prayers, and introducing speakers. New to the exercises were short speeches by the 1981 Valedictorian, Robert King, and Saluta-torian, Jonathon Edwards. Seniors arranged for speakers such as Rev. James D. Jones of the Methodist church who encouraged the graduates to realize their potential and use it for great things in their future. Also Frank Basile was asked to be commencement speaker and he expanded on Rev. Jones' theme by admonishing graduates to decide what they wanted most in life and to set short- and longterm goals to achieve these ends. Seniors Trent Champ, Sarah Merri-man, and Gay Getters added musical background by each conducting the band in numbers they had arranged. And Stephanie Whitesel sang a solo for guests. Then seniors were called forward by Mr. Fox to receive their diplomas as well as a red rose from class sponsors Mrs. Laura Northcutt and Mrs. Margo Varner. Graduation completed, graduates filed out to be congratulated by family and friends as our newest alumni of W.C.

It’ an ATOUAL event Dear Students of W.C.: The goal of the Annual Staff this year was to capture the personality of Winchester Community High School. We began working on our Golden Era at the start of the second semester. Selling advertisements to the merchants, however, began much earlier. A yearbook is much more complicated than it appears to be. Write-ups must incorporate the main idea of each team or organization and the photographs have to be eye-catching. Being on Annual Staff is a team effort and cooperation with one another is a must. Within these pages, we have tried our best to provide YOU, the students of W.C., with a rather unique Golden Era. Sincerely, Annual Staff of 1981 41 When it comes to spirit, W.C. has what it takes. Sectional week has always been an exciting event, and this year was no exception. The halls were decorated, as were the students, and the classes competed with skits. Individually or as a student body, the message was the same, Yea-Rah, Golden Falcons! This year there were a number of fun-loving highlights. For example, Tim Brown got lots of whistles as Sue Ellen Cheerleader. The Senior class raised the auditorium roof with their imitation of the Blues Brothers . And the starting-five got a little sugar from their . . . MOTHERS??? 42 As a person is made of a head, a trunk, and appendages, so is the body of our school. The seniors are the Heads , showing leadership and setting examples for the underclassmen. The juniors are the Trunks , preparing themselves for accepting the responsibility of next year's leadership. The sophomores and freshmen are the Appendages , following and helping support the rest of the body. The students work both alone and together to achieve their goals of good grades, good times, and graduation. The final result is the combination of each separate part to build the BODY of WC. When the 8:00 bell rings, how would you like to stand at the top of this ramp and meet this mob? 43 Seniors Make Their Last Year The Best For twelve years we work toward our senior year. When we were underclassmen, we looked up to the seniors. Now, the underclassmen look up to us. We are expected to be leaders and to set good examples for the underclassmen. But along with these responsibilities comes a few fringe benefits. We got to go three minutes early to lunch, during convocations seniors were announced to go to the auditorium first, we were the guests at prom, we got out two weeks earlier than the underclassmen, and finally, we had clout. As the year slowly came to an end, thoughts were turned toward graduation and anticipation of what lay ahead for us seniors, whether it be college, marriage or work.

Hand over heart, Tammy Addington stands proudly as THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER is played. The Issues Of Today Will They Affect Us? Most people don't think that today's youth care about the events happening in the world, but we seniors looked around us and realized that today's issues will most likely affect us tomorrow. We became concerned about the rapid rate of inflation and the high gasoline prices ($1.40 per gallon). We cried over the death of John Lennon and rejoiced when the American hostages in Iran were finally released after 444 days in captivity. We watched helplessly as President Carter announced that we would not send any athletes to the 1980 Olympics in Moscow, because Russia had invaded Afghanistan. We saw a new President elected, President Ronald Regan, and then we saw an assassination attempt on his life two months after he took office. And finally, as we write this, black neighborhoods in Atlanta live in fear of the person or persons who have been killing their children (22 to date). We, as seniors, can only hope to make this world a better one than it is right now.

When it came to songs, REO Speedwagon's KEEP ON LOVING YOU was the unanimous winner, followed by BACK IN BLACK by ACDC, THE BEST OF TIMES by Styx, COCAINE by Eric Clapton, and John Lennon's WOMAN. In movies, the seniors taste leaned toward comedies, like STIR CRAZY, ANY WHICH WAY YOU CAN, or 9-5. We also seemed to like horror flicks like FUNHOUSE, HALLOWEEN or CARRIE. And finally on our list came shows like KRAMER VS. KRAMER, or ORDINARY PEOPLE. Apparently, the high price of tapes, and albums and movie tickets doesn't stop seniors from buying their favorites.

Dwight Rines, Joy Robbins, Joy Roberts, Wanda Schott The junior year is always a challenging one, and for this year's juniors it was no exception. There was a spirit stick to be won and a princess to be chosen at homecoming, concessions to be sold at basketball games, and a prom to be put up and torn down. For the lack of profits off the concessions, the juniors resorted to selling pizza kits and having a cake walk at the S.C. carnival. For the college bound juniors, the SAT was taken over Spring break. Most juniors looked forward to next year with great expectations of being a senior, and all the privileges that go along with it.

But tradition didn't last as the sophomores received the booby prize at homecoming which traditionally went to freshman. Joetta Braun was chosen as their princess this year. And as the year rolled on thoughts were turned toward next year's traditions of concessions, prom, and the SAT.

Not really knowing what to expect at Fun and Games, they still came through with a win on their float. At the pep session they rallied together and helped their class be one of the first freshmen classes not to win the booby prize in a long time. They have a bright future in front of them if they can keep up the spirit that they have shown this year.

FUN7 A There are teachers who art familiar from year to year, but there are always those who are new to our school. Being a teacher involves making lesson plans, maintaining order in class, and grading papers, even on weekends. Above and beyond all that, many of the teachers get involved with the activities of the students such as being class sponsors and organization leaders. These jobs involve a lot of hard work and time. Just being a teacher isn't easy, but most teachers will testify that it brings rewards. They are asked to help out as chaperones at dances, work at ball-games, decorate halls for spirit, etc. If you notice a teacher's hair is graying, thinning, or just plain dropping out, maybe you'd better think about what they go through each day of the school year. 71 BELOW: Mr. Parker teaches his Econ. classes the very best finger exercises.

Mr. Fox was a principal for eight years at Tri County High School prior to his new position at W.C. He obtained his bachelor's Degree at Purdue University, his Master's Degree at St. Francis in Fort Wayne, and his Specialist in Education at Ball State University. The New Regime Mr. Fox brought many new ideas to the attention of the students. He would like to make foreign language a four year course and change the agriculture class so the students could gain experience by taking part in various projects. In his spare time, Mr. Fox likes to golf and do remodeling. Most of his time, however, is spent with beef cattle and 4-H work. In comparison to other schools, I feel that the students at W.C. are better behaved, friendlier, and more responsive to set directions. W.C. has a good teaching faculty that spends a lot of extra time with the students ' The overall community is conservative, which I like ... I enjoy Winchester, quoted Mr. Fox. Mr Bush enjoys reading his English book when there's nothing else to do. 73 Administration Mr. Myers, along with the school board, has brought expansion to WC. Toward the end of April, noticeable changes were taking place around the school. The serpentine wall was removed to make way for a bigger and better cafeteria. The lunches will now be prepared at the high school instead of being transported from the junior high. The industrial arts department is also growing. A new power mechanics room is being added. On the inside, the vocal classes will be held in the lecture room enabling the instrumental department to have the extra space which was needed. The total cost of these projects is $512,953. Probably one of the most talked about changes this year is the construction of a new elementary school near Deerfield. This will consolidate the students from Ridge-ville and Saratoga. The completion of the school is scheduled for the fall of 1982-1983. Mr Ron Myers, Randolph Central School Corporation Superintendent.

ABOVE LEFT: Mrs. Irma Wysong, Secretary. BOTTOM LEFT. Mrs. Betty Howell, Treasurer-Bookkeeper ABOVE RIGHT: Mrs. Reita Durbin, Secretary. The Vice-Regime The next most important change was the addition of a new vice-principal, Mr. Gibson. Mr. Gibson taught math at South Carolina, was a counselor and a physical education teacher, as well as a coach, at Martinsville, and was the Dean of Boys at Perry Meridian. He obtained his Bachelor's and Master's Degrees at Ball State University. Mr. Gibson feels that there are no extreme changes needed, but spirit and participation are lacking. He would like to see more of the students attend sports events and activities, maybe even involve the elementaries. The kids are fantastic, overall a really great group of students. The school itself has a great staff, says I Mr. Gibson. 75 The Chauffeurs The Go-Fers Behind the scenes are people seldom heard of but as important to the school as teachers and students themselves. A bus driver must get up with the roosters five days a week in order to transport students to school. The cafeteria workers are important to those who get hungry about 11:30. These women take time out from their daily schedule to come to school and prepare lunch for 650 famished students. These people definitely deserve an expression of gratitude.

A Computer Career Robert King, a senior at WC, is well on his way to a successful career. The computer age that has affected many businesses has also affected Robert's life. Robert became interested in computers in elementary school. He began by reading articles in magazines that pertained to computer programming and furthered his knowledge by learning to operate the computer at the high school. Robert has even written some of his own computer programs and games. Robert has attended the Purdue Academic Leadership Seminar, Rose Hulman's Camp Re-tupmoc , and Ball State's Student Science Training Program. Robert's experience with a computer goes even farther than the school. He has his own computer, TRS 80, Model 1, Level 2. Robert's future goal is to design and build an entire computer system. Among some of Robert's hobbies are astronomy, band, and FBLA. He attended the FBLA State Leadership Conference at Ball State and placed first in Data Processing. Robert plans to enroll in Purdue University and major in Electronic Engineering or Computer Science. The best of luck to you, Robert! 77 ABOVE LEFT: Mr. Drill and Mr. Simmons helping with the musical.

If students were asked what a teacher's job involves, many would probably answer making daily lesson plans, lecturing, grading papers, and assigning homework. A teacher does spend hours doing this, but many put in almost the equivalent of time working on projects outside of their regular school day. Every year around the month of March, many of the industrial arts teachers volunteer to help build props for the musical. The English department also gets involved by helping with the dramatic part of the musical. The list of activities that a teacher participates in goes on and on. Planning for the school play, prom, being a coach, and even spending their summer working with the band or being a driver education teacher. The faculty of WC has shown devotion and dedication by participating in extracurricular activities as well as contributing to the education of the students. 79 80 ABOVE LEFT: By this smile, you can see that Mr. Anderson enjoys teaching.

Mr. Anderson: I like kids and athletics, and this is one way to work with both. I feel that education is important and this is one way that I can contribute to it. Miss Garner: I was interested in psychology, but teaching was the only major offered at the University of Alaska. Mrs. Varner: To try and make learning (especially English) more fun for students. I remember sitting in senior English class and hating every minute. I kept saying to myself 'There must be a better way!' Miss Wickes: I enjoy teaching history ancj coaching, but my three main reasons are June, July and August! 81 Industrial Arts keeps Aaron Hyre busy.

A Falcon’s Eye-View of Change Each year students are scheduled for the same familiar courses such as math, English, history, etc. This year the Home Economics department has added a new phase to teaching. The child development classes are getting first hand experience at working with children. The students bring a young child within the age group of 1 to 5 to school three days a week. The children participate in games as well as coordinated learning. Before their day is finished, the children are treated with popcorn, Hi-C, and other goodies . Being a senior one often wonders, Where was this program fourteen years ago? 82 ABOVE LEFT: Brian Pierre Minnich giving it all he's got.

A new program, Interdisciplinary Cooperative Education (ICE), was introduced to WC. This program is composed of students studying business, agriculture, electricity, health, and apartment maintenance. Mrs. Chalfant is the sponsor of ICE and sets up the various training stations. This program enables the students to prepare for a career following high school. ICE also involves a related class which consists of working from a textbook, practice sets which correspond with each student's job, and various worksheets. The typical work schedules for the students are from 1-5, Monday through Friday. Each student earns one credit for the class and two for the hours spent on the job. The year is concluded with a banquet held for the employers to show appreciation for their participation in the ICE program. 84 ABOVE LEFT: Robert Cox is working at Cox Manufacturing, which specializes in furnace production.

Two student teachers were added to the staff this year. Mrs. Spear taught business education and Miss Hoover taught physical education and health. Mrs. Jones was added to the guidance staff as a counselor. She previously was the physical education teacher at Driver Junior High School. Miss Adams was introduced to W.C. as a new special education teacher. Along with detention comes the necessity for another teacher. Mrs. Leach has filled this position. W.C. would like to welcome the new teachers and wish them the best of luck! 86 Kevin Mock exerts strength and energy as he runs for a WC victory. H € From the Falcon's view. When the last bell of the school day rings, a special group of students come to life. The athletes, carrying satchels, are getting ready for practice. As others go home to relax, these people go through strenuous practices to achieve their goal • • VICTORY! Whatever the outcome, all groups of athletes at WC are winners in their own special way They generate spirit among all the students and encourage each other to excel in competition and sportsmanship. 87 Hit ’Em With Your Best Shot The W.C. football team was lacking when it came to hitting with their best shots, but the future holds an abundance of inspiring underclassmen. This year the Falcons ended their season with a record of 2-8. The highlight of the year was defeating our rival Union City 19-14. When asked what our team thought of U.C., most of them replied, We hate 'em! Can't be anymore blunt than that, and they proved it. Why when you're having a losing season, would you want to devote your time to the team? Shawn Hunt, Jon Peacock, and Mitch Hyre, our team captains, all seemed to have the same thing to say. We were elected captains because the team thought we were leaders. Being a senior, you're expected to guide the others in sportsmanship, and hard work. Awards received: Jon Peacock-Defensive and Offensive Back and Lineman, Brett Woznicki Defensive Lineman, and Danny Tucker-Offensive Back. Falcon Football in 1981 looks hopeful!

Coach Jay Myers took on the Freshman football position this fall although he teaches in the Junior High. Last year he was the Junior High coach so this makes his second consecutive year with the same boys. Says Myers, These boys have only lost four games since they were seventh graders. They are a solid team, working with a total team effort to achieve victories. There is no one outstanding super-star to mention as the boys are evenly talented and work well as a team. Wins take all of their talents ' With this background and an '80 record of 7-2, the upcoming years will be hopefully sequel to this success story.

While at W.C., Sharon competed in AAU Junior Olympics placing 4th and 6th in the butterfly compeitition. Her Junior year, she placed 2nd in the sectional which qualified her for the state meet where she placed 14th. This year Sharon won top honors in the preliminary meet at the sectional.

County Champs No Sweat Winning a county Championship for the fourth time seemed to be a breeze for our cross-country team. It took a lot of strenuous hours of practice, sweat, and devotion to obtain a winning record of 7-3. Ron Anderson, coach, and runner sets a brisk pace for the team to follow. By running with the boys, Coach Anderson has created an atmosphere of dedication and a spirit of winning. Mosier became the first crosscountry runner to advance to semi-state. There, he placed 17th out of 124. The close bond between the boys will be broken next year when we lose three respectable seniors. John Mosier, Joe Hines, and Don Mock will be a loss, but the upcoming talent is plentiful. TOP RIGHT: Mosier wins county for 3rd year. MIDDLE: Steve Millares takes a breather.

As new county champions, the girls volleyball team showed sportsmanship and dedication throughout their long and hard, but winning season. Starting in a slump, the girls proved themselves by gaining the title of Randolph County Volleyball champs for the first time in four years. Team awards were given to Kim Pigg for good defense, Joy Robbins for her offensive ability, and Rhonda Miles for her serving skills. We regret in saying that we will be losing only one, but a fine senior, Holly Fraser. Holly was selected for the county all-star team two consecutive years. The reserve team had a fine season of 7-8. We will be looking at their talents for the years to come. 95 The 1980-81 wrestling season was very rewarding for the W.C. wrestlers. With nine seniors gone from last year's team, there were many question marks. However, the young men came through in championship fashion to contribute to the establishment of a fine tradition in wrestling at W.C. The team finished 9 and 2 overall and 5 and 1 in the TEC. In addition the wrestlers won their third Randolph County Championship in a row. Eight school records were broken by John Mosier, Rob Moland, Kevin Jones, and Mark Ramsey. John Mosier became the third W.C. wrestler in history to win a Regional Championship and also advanced to the Semi-State meet for the second year in a row. Seniors contributing to this year's success were John Mosier, Brett Woznicki, Don Mock, and Jon Peacock. In the future it looks as though this tradition of good wrestlers will hold true.

It was thought that things would just not make any improvements, but to the suprise of just about everyone, our team rocketed straight upward. They won 9 out of their last 15 games to end with a season record of 9 and 12. Not a winning record, but this evolved from an earlier season record of 0 and 6. After being rated last in the tri-eastern conference, W.C. gained the title of Co-Champs. Although they were disappointed by their defeat in the County Tourney, they gave their opponents a rough game.

Sectional time came with alot of disappointments. After last year's big win, our Falcons had a great deal of pressure on their shoulders. The boys were ready, but with the competition on the floor, things were a little more competitive than were expected. With a little bad luck, the Falcons were unable to pull off a victory. The first game against Union City was won 49-47. The second game, senior Dave Wall received a hard blow to the face. In need of stitches and a little stunned, Dave was unable to give one of his better performances. We hope our Falcons can again take the Sectional title. Many valuable seniors were lost this year, but talent is upcoming in the other grades. LEFT: Tim Hart looks for an open man. RIGHT: Kirk Comer: He's up, he shoots, and it's good for the Falcons. 99 Freshman Are On Their Way Up. With alot of hard work and potentially talented, aggressive, and good shooting boys, next years B-team should make a very dominant showing. The freshman team worked well under coach Gary Kiser to gain a season record of 4-10. The record doesn't say much, but most of the games were lost by 10 points or less. This maturing team is ready to prove themselves next year. wc 35 Wapahani 57 wc 42 Richmond Dennis 48 wc 36 South Adams 19 wc 47 Jay County 56 wc 38 Delta 41 wc 68 Northeastern 48 EASTBROOK TOURNEY WC 27 Mississinewa 28 WC 43 Eastbrook 39 WC 34 Lincoln 44 WC 55 Hagerstown 58 WC 65 Centerville 32 WC 40 Union City 45 WC 42 Muncie South 45 FIRST ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT: Manager Craig Sarna, Coach Gary Kiser, Manager Mark Moody SECOND ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT: Brad Burelison, David Tucker Andy Sullivan, Kevin Jacobs, Danny Waber, Bob Speed, Mike Stilwell, Don Reeves, Jim Alexander, Steve Farmer, Larry Detro, Jeff Warvel, Ron Shoemaker.

The team was led in scoring by guard James Lewis who averaged 11 points per game. James also led the team in assists with 60 for the season. 5'11 sophomore Dean Woodbury was the teams leading rebounder with an average of 6 per game. Stan Winningham was the team's second leading rebounder at 5'8 . Danny Tucker was the teams second leading scorer with an 8 point average per game.

LEFT TO RIGHT: Angie Clevenger, Karen Byrd, Gynnie Keesling, Katie Williams, Robin Bolinger, Coach Parker W.C.'s intermediate gymnastic team had an exceptional season, taking home a county championship for the first time in W.C.'s history. Above the excitement of the championship, the season record was something else to talk about. Losing only one meet the whole year was an accomplishment. The meet was lost by only .15 of one point which made the season record 8-1. Highlights in the intermediate division were Robin Bolinger's dynamic beam routine and Gynnie Keesling's lead in team point scoring. Gynnie also placed 4th in the sectional competition. Gynnie Keesling and Katie Williams are two seniors that will be missed. Gymnastics needs a much bigger turn-out for next year. 102 KNEELING: Jackie Beam, Mary Ann Wright.

Above all, the team did well considering there were four freshmen and four sophomores. The season record ended with 5 wins and losses. W.C. is working with their beginning team through Mrs. Sulc, who is preparing her team for future competition. 103 The Spirit Behind the Falcons ABOVE: Karon Klem full of laughs at Sectional TOP RIGHT: Katie Williams and Rhonda Rook showing much concern for their team LOWER LEFT: Debbie Neudecker and Joetta Braurr get it together. LOWER RIGHT: The gang's all here. Contrary to popular belief, a cheerleader's job goes beyond the Friday and Saturday night ball-games. There's a lot more involved! On top of weekend games and weekly practices, there's a mountain of responsibility placed on the cheerleader's shoulders. Fixing and serving breakfast for the athletes, serving cake and icecream at every awards banquet and working long hours on posters and decorations are a few of the time consuming tasks. Keeping the crowd enthused though, is the main obligation of a cheerleader. Although the cheer-block is small, it's full of spirit, said senior Rhonda Rook. I know that I as well as the other members of the squad truly appreciated the support we got from our cheerblock. Mrs. Fine was the new sponsor this year. The girls all agreed that the new rules were tough! All in all, it got the squad in uniform style, which enabled them to catch the spirit behind the Falcons. 104 VARSITY CHEERLEADERS: Katie Williams, Melissa Hawley, Karon Klem, Kathy Crowell, Karen Byrd, Rhonda Rook. FRESHMAN: Lisa Sipe, Robin Bolinger, Diane Neudecker, Jackie Beam. 105 At W.C. it's not how many we won, it's how we played the game ' said senior Holly Fraser. The team record does matter, but we were proud that every game we put out 100% effort. Most of the games were lost by a very small margin of points. This can prove to be discouraging, but our girls kept their heads high and fought all the way to the finish. Mr. Howell, the coach, said this was the best quality of mental attitude that Winchester has ever had. Although a disappointing season record of 6-10, the W.C. Girls' Basketball team showed a lot of enthusiasm and spirit. Two seniors, Holly Fraser, and Rhonda Eley will be greatly missed next year. Hopefully the experience gained this year will pay off in the upcoming season. FIRST ROW, FROM LEFT TO RIGHT: Kim Hill, manager, Coach Steve Howell, Coach Melissa Wickes, Rhonda Pigg, manager.

For the fourth year in a row the team won the Randolph County meet and this year finished third in the T.E.C. School records were set by John Mosier in the 1600 meter run (4:32.5) and in the 3200 meter run (10:07.2).

Ill Golfers Gradually Gain The Boy's Golf team had a slow year finishing with a 3-7 record. But as the year progressed our boys improved until finally they come in sixth in the T.E.C., second in the Randolph County Meet, and eighth out of seventeen in the sectional. As an individual, Scott Cas-person, did well coming in first at the County tourney and being named to the all-conference team. Hopefully with a summer to polish their golf our team will return winners for the next season. LEFT: Scott Casperson gained more experience this year and will return next year.

Mr. Bush agreed that this year's team was well-balanced in talent as well as the numbers from each class represented on the team. This year three Freshmen played varsity with one Freshman, Eric Durbin, pitching a no-hit, no run game against Blue River. Team players making All-Conference were Kirk Comer, pitcher; Andy Holloway and Eric Durbin as outfielders. By team vote and stats the following were voted most outstanding in their positions: Andy Holloway, Outfielder; Shawn Hunt, Infielder; Neil Hobbs, leading hitter; and Kirk Comer, pitcher.
