It’s all part of the price one pays for an education. But considering the results, it's a pretty small price for what you're getting. Let us explain. Learning is a part of life, whether you work to learn or whether you learn by accident. Everyone learns something everyday. SAME PAGE, ABOVE: Lisa Short wonders if chemical equations arc worth it. ABOVE RIGHT: Tonya Thompson in language lab looks like TWA's next air traffic controller. RIGHT: The choir rehearses for the patriotic concert. OPPOSITE PAGE, ABOVE RIGHT: Still working on cursive HuH!! BELOW LEFT: Rob Thomas and Rod Lawrence doing yesterday’s homework. BELOW RIGHT: Lisa Fisher models the fashion of the day. 2 Before you start school, you learn by experience, example — if the stove is hot, don't touch it. A slap on the hands from parents makes sure you don’t forget. But in school you learn to study. There are no more slaps to remind although poor grades may be considered reinforcement to learning. Education is your responsibility. 3 Crack The Whip; Crack The Books In high school you really start cracking down on the books to pass your classes, for here you cannot just goof off. The teachers are not slave drivers, but they expect to get a certain amount of work and respect out of each student. And they work to get the students motivated enough to work. 4 OPPOSITE PAGE, UPPER LEFT: Jonna Waltz, Cindy Stilwell, Cristi Croylc, Annette Rees and Kim Harrett watch Kelly Fox do fashion design. RIGHT: This banner made in ICE class showed WC’s support for the band during state finals. CENTER: Jenny Daly is busy at work in Mrs. Fine’s typing I class. FAR LEFT: Ronn Shumaker is a character and in this case for pep session. Miss Donna Huber. SAME PAGE, LEFT: Mrs. Parker teaches some gymnastics moves to Amy Wood. BELOW: Bonnie Bailey learns how important the sense of touch is to those without sight. Your high school years are the most important. They are your stepping stone to college and life. The work you put in is the deciding factor on what you get out of it. If you work hard, you'll probably reap a good education. If you take it easy, you may not fare so well. And hard workers find each day an interesting challenge. 5 Friendship Is Work Of course another part of school is interacting with people. Relationships can be rough going at times and peer pressure immense. So being able to talk to, and share with others, to really develop close ties with others, while maintaining some self-worth and individuality is another part of learning. School isn't just books. SAME PAGE, ABOVE: Ferocious Mrs. Fine takes a hunk out of Ron Byrd’s hand during Halloween. MIDDLE: Chris Romack as a serious clay artist. RIGHT: Lisa Short, Tammy Terrell, Kim Holloway, Monte Gcgenhcimcr, and Shari Baker discuss their computer exercise. OPPOSITE PAGE, ABOVE RIGHT: Andy Sullivan as the world famous Carnac of Johnny Carson fame during the pep session. BELOW LEFT: Ellen Peperak with the machine of the future. BELOW RIGHT: Kelly Fox, the artist with pizazz. 6 i There are fun aspects of school also. Meeting your friends and talking to each other between classes is fun. Also there are dances, sports, and other amusements at high school. There are proms and parties to attend. Moreover there is that constant playing around each day to keep a humorous perspective about the serious business of education. 7 Expensive Produce; Valuable Inestimitable One of the forms of leadership in school is joining organizations. If you're a joiner, you are showing an ability to work along side others for a common goal. In addition you show confidence in yourself and pride in your school and its tradition. Finally you want to learn and share that knowledge with others. Voa Buy a Use OPPOSITE PAGE, FAR LEFT: Craig West shows Mr. Gibson who is really boss. BELOW LEFT: Jim Burge lakes power mechanics. TOP MIDDLE: Students have 5 minutes passing which may be reduced to 4 in 1984-85. MIDDLE: J.C. Craig and Craig Sarna experiment with the Spanish cuisine. SAME PAGE, LEFT: Teachers play a joke on Mr. Hedden. BELOW: Marc Clevenger and Amy Hcrs-berger played Hooverville bums in ANNIE. The result of all this work is that you are a more mature individual. Certainly you will get your diploma, but you will also have the memories both good and bad, your friends, and the knowledge that you have learned by your hard work. Yes, you pay a price but it is small in comparison to the results you eventually gain from WC. 9 ONLY NOW WE BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND Graduation. The best thing that could happen to anybody is happening to the Class of '84. Through all the years of high school, the senior year is the most exciting but also the most expensive. Receiving announcements, cap and gown, Rossburg Rock, and Grad Nite made for a colorful senior year. It is always something special to think of your senior year and getting your diploma, but when it finally happens it is a very special feeling. Pride is the emotion of all parents and friends, but the graduates beat everyone else in that department. They have a feeling of earning this big prize, and it is a very good feeling. So now we begin to understand why the classes before us felt pride and joy at graduation and throughout their senior year.

His name is David Singh. He will be in Winchester for twelve months and will attend WC again in the fall. David is presently staying with Chip and Ruth Loney. During the summer, David will move to Ridge-ville to stay with Tom and Betty Her-old. In the fall David will move in with his third family. David has represented his home school in swimming at the local sectional-regional-state and Australian level competition. He was also in track and cross country at regional level. David admits that he likes WC and has made many friends. He also enjoys swimming, other sports, meeting people and computers. He has joined our Model Legislature and FBLA. In school David is presently enrolled in English literature, accounting, civics, U.S. history, calculus, chemistry. With this heavy schedule, he manages to bring home many A’s. In the future David plans to study medicine, law, pharmacy, or computers. He has already matriculated to two universities.

The seniors seem to be glad too. None of them will ever forget the things they have done like working on Homecoming, selecting announce- ments, caps and gowns, and collecting class dues. They also thought of a new motto: We've been taught, now we will teach. We've been led, now we will lead. Good luck. Seniors, in whatever you do.

KELLI JOHNSON Kiss A Pig Sure enough, in April, the Student Council sponsored a kiss a pig contest to raise money for the cancer fund. Money was put in the students' favorite contestant's jar, and whoever had the most money at the end of the week had to kiss a live, squealing pig during the lunch hours. Our contestants were freshman Michelle Hogg, sophomore Todd Hollingsworth, Mrs. Long-necker, and our own Mr. Gibson. The money donated for this event totaled $39.00 and the kissing began. Some consider this fun, others cruel and unusual punishment. 18 TIM JOHNSON CHERYL L. JONES: FHA 1; FBLA 1; Wrcstlercttcs 2; ICE 4-Treasurer 4; Honor Society 4; Choir 1,2; Musical 2.

They shared a big part in graduation, scheduled graduation speakers, sold grad night tickets, and collected for caps, gowns, and prom bids. Officers are ultimately responsible for the direction a class takes. They are the motivators and leaders of those who put them into office. A class is only as active and united as the classmates who lead them. The officers are from left to right: Craig West, Treasurer; Betsy Harrell, Vice-President; Diana Neu-decker.

BRENDA McCORMICK MORP Is Backwards Prom FHA gave a dance called the MORP, the reverse of Prom, to raise money and stimulate student activity. The Halloween dance proved to be a great success with almost 200 students attending. Prizes for the best costumes were awarded to Mindy Shawver and Stan Winningham dressed as Mickey and Minnie Mouse. The Electric Dance and Video Company provided music and visual entertainment for the couples. As a finale to the evening. Sue Shoopman and Jeff McKissick were named Queen and King of the MORP. 27 SCOTT WELCH LEFT: Mike Riley and Angie Keys escorted in the Class of 84.

The 168 strong class entered to the band's traditional “Pomp Circumstance.” When seated Mike Stilwell gave the invocation followed by Craig West’s introduction of Rev. Kim Mills from Bear Creek Friends Church who emphasized, “You are somebody.” Betsy Harrell provided the introduction of class salutatorian Amy Frazier. Amy’s speech stressed that each individual must believe in himself herself.

They are motivated by the thought of being out of school, even just for a little while. But right now, their dreams are pushed back as they look forward to upcoming events for their class. Juniors look forward to Prom and to facing the task of civics. Sophomores are looking forward to class rings and class jackets. Freshmen have all these things to look forward to, but right now they are hard at work getting to know the school and their place in it. Oh, it will be hard, sometimes frustrating, often painful; but most assuredly exciting. And when all is said and done, it will have been a small price to pay for the alumni title.

Naturally this may mean more of a class load for our Freshmen. But it also increases the amount of subjects they can choose from and in turn take during high school.

But even special events are only as outstanding as the sponsors and students that create and work at the event. The cast of this year's musical “Annie” performed before a sold-out crowd on both Friday and Saturday. Homecoming pulled the student body together to back the victorious Black Attack in its busy pregamc week of activities. “We've Got Tonight” provided one lovely formal affair before school’s end. And again a junior class mobilized itself to fashion a beautiful evening many could enjoy. Musical festival after a trip to the Kentucky Derby was a big success for the band and a change of pace from Extra-vaganza.

Preliminary to that the usual Fun Games took place. The Junior class, full of enthusiasm throughout the Homecoming week, was rewarded the Spirit Stick. During the half-time of the football game senior Angie Stuckey was crowned the 1983 Homecoming Queen. Her court consisted of the other senior candidates who were Missy Cline and Kelli Bolding.

This musical brought a lot of firsts to the musical history at WC. This year was the first time a freshman took the leading role, and it was also the first time both nights were completely sold-out. But despite all the good things that happened, the cast still had some bad luck. “Annie” caught a sore throat one week before the performance, fortunately it was gone by Friday night. Several members of the stage crew were injured during practice and clean-up, including a cut thumb. But it turned out to not be serious. Unfortunately Miss Hanni-gan was hospitalized with pneumonia one week before the performance and was unable to go on Friday night. Luckily she was able to perform Saturday. Miss Sandy Buckley, a freshman at Butler University, was her replacement. The cast of ANNIE included Joni Jackson as Annie, David Fouse as Daddy Warbucks, Sherri Harris as Grace Farrell, Janice Jarrett as Miss Hannigan, Chris Shaneyfelt as Rooster Hannigan, and Jackie Baker as Lily St. Regis. President Roosevelt was portrayed by Dave Kelly the new dramatics director, and Sandy the dog was played by Lady whose owner is Bill Sheppard. The orphans were Amy Byrum, Sharon Beck, Jodell Hendrickson, Michelle Hogg, Jill Gray, Gwynne Fields, Kay Johnson, and Tonya Meeks. Minor characters were Marty Cross as Drake Bundles, John Auker as Fred McCracken, Marc Clevenger as Jimmy Johnson, Curtis Bruce as Bert Healy, Kevin Helton as The Sound Effects Man Louis Howe, Valerie Turner as Cecille Sophie, Becky Dillow, Julie Chowning, Rena Hendrickson as the Boylan Sisters.

The stage band jazzed up the evening with IN THE STONE and SPANISH FEVER colorfully fronted by our dancing majorettes. Next on the agenda was the film of state band contest in Terre Haute where WC placed second. In tribute to seniors, a slide presentation followed. A stirring finale of THE NAVY HYMN and ANCHORS AWAY with majorettes flying the colors, brought the crowd to its feet. Drum major J.R. Spancer handed over his authority to his successor Tim Ray; and as a climax, Mr. Roberts announced that THE FORCE had been formally invited to the Macy’s Day Parade in New York. The band will begin planning for this exciting trip over Thanksgiving but on May 13 it was off to the Kentucky Derby Parade. 50 LEFT: The majorettes hold the American flags for the NAVY HYMN.

The theme was taken from the popular song of the day by Bob Seeger. Couples walked over a bridge which spanned the front pit flooded with water. The sunset wall provided a colorful backdrop to the sign-in area from which students proceeded to their candle lighted tables. Each couple had a photo taken by Mr. Keever in front of a mobile of silver stars. Guests danced to Sounds Unlimited, others enjoyed refreshments of punch, cookies, and mints. The King and Queen were announced — Mark Moody and Angie Stuckey. Their court was Robin Bolinger and Missy Cline. At 10:30 the grand march paraded the lovely guests before parents and friends. Prom ended at midnight while after-Prom began at 1:00 A.M. Baskets of balloons now decorated the tables. Hungry guests ate nachos, ham sandwiches, fruit, vegetables and dip, and ice cream. Between dances door prizes were awarded. At 3:00 A.M. the Prom was over. But breakfast in Muncie or Richmond was the last step in this long, lovely formal evening.

Mr Mock himself is considered an invaluable Mr. Fix-It around WC. What motivates the teachers at WC? Why do they always show' up for school at least three days before it officially starts? Students may complain about getting up early and getting to school by 8:00 A.M.. but when they are arising some of our teachers are already on their way to school. Teachers give their time to plan for class, provide tutoring for individuals. grade papers, and create new approaches to old problems. They are also busy helping with club sponsorships, special events, sports, and committee work. This all takes time. Look around at our busy involved faculty. Better yet, see what a help they can be to you! Teachers can make a difference if you let them. ACADEMICS 54 LEFT: Brian Lowe works with the WORLD ALMANAC during library orientation. BELOW: Krista Campbell takes part in language lab repeating phrases in the Spanish venacular. 55 Administration As you know there are going to be a lot of new changes this year and next. Nationwide schools are required to increase the number of credits for graduation. And WC was making plans to fulfill these new standards. The new requirements will have no affect on this year’s seniors or next. Credits will remain at 34. But for the Class of '86 and on, requirements will increase by at least eight credits. This will give an additional year of math, science, and English to those students affected. The school day is also lengthening. All students must be in class for 360 minutes per day not counting passing time. This causes a major dilemma for our student body. No longer will there be time during the school day for extracurricular events like activities period, pep sessions, convos. Fun Games, school pictures, and so on. This is all new to everyone, and maybe someday we will get used to all these new changes. Everyone should work so they can strive for what they want. Probably there will be more changes in the future just when we have gotten used to the first. TOP: Mr. Gary Kecsling. our school superintendent at Randolph Central.

And 1 think that that is the most distinguishing characteristic of WC teachers - their concern for, interest in, and active involvement with students, quotes Mrs. Varner. Mr. Bush goes on to say, “When teachers are involved in extra-curricular, it gives them a chance to sec students in another environment and work with them in a different way.” Mr. Brueckheimer encouraged, All teachers with special abilities or skills should get involved in whatever areas they feel they can contribute to help the students.

We asked if school had changed much in all her years, to which she replied, “Yes. We have gone through three consolidations during the 39 years I have taught at WC. Regardless of the obstacles, the key to educational success still lies with the relationship between the student and the teacher. We just have more students.” When a teacher has contributed 40 years to education, they are sure to be remembered. But how does Mrs. Gardner want to be remembered? “As an active, interested, dedicated, and compassionate teacher.” That description fits her very well after the active participation in all student activities. “Teaching and working with students in intercurricular (FHA) and extracurricular (class sponsor) activities have been a large part of my life,” she adds. “The satisfactions have been many, the disappointments no longer important. I think I could not have had any profession to equal the joys of teaching. Home Economics has been very challenging in that it is ever changing, and I must continually be updated to meet those changes.” Many occassions have made an impression on Mrs. Gardner but as she says, “There are many events that have had an impact but to see students mature and develop to their potential, to see them complete their education, and become responsible citizens is important to me.” WC won’t soon forget our Mrs. Gardner and the style and grace with which she performed each duty. She is really going to be missed, and as one staff member put it, “It just won’t be the same without her.” 60 9 TOP LEFT: Mr. Gary Ainsworth shared Mr. Mrs. Williams’ classes.

Ball State furnished WC with student teachers, and this year it was the training ground for four Ball State students: Brad Key, biology; Gary Ainsworth, social studies; Sarah Reed, English; and Tony Meinerding, P.E. Working with the students was the number one priority of all, and Mr. Meinerding pointed out, “This is a very good school with well-behaved students. 1 was surprised — pleasantly- Each teacher shared the same philosophy about their apprenticeship as Mrs. Reed, “1 have learned more in the last four or five weeks than in all five years of my college education.” When asked what was the most difficult part for them, Mr. Ainsworth laughingly said, “My sixth period World History class. If any gave me a hard time, they’re the ones.” Mrs. Reed found the studying and preparation quite a task. “It was scary when 1 stood in front of the class wondering if I was really prepared to give the lesson.” All three have plans to teach upon graduation. Mr. Meinerding is looking in the south eastern or southwestern U.S. But he would consider WC at any time. 61 A Face In The Crowd LEFT: Krista Comer, Jenny Daly and Eric Durbin roam the halls as usual before class.

The 2’s and 3’s enjoy toys, games, and dancing while the 4’s and 5’s like coloring pictures, mat jumping, and walking the balance beam. The high schoolers learn how to be good parents by overseeing at least one of the kids. They serve the chil- dren a daily nutritious snack, put on a puppet show, and direct play. By the end of the week even the shyest child is getting into the activities and having a good time. “It’s really something when you are out and one of the kids comes up to you and says hi and calls you by name and wants you to hold them. It feels wonderful,” says Jonna Waltz. 64 ABOVE: Here are some of (he ehildren who participated in the program.

French club, Spanish club, FHA, and FBLA, for example. What do they have in common? Well, the common denominator is the time you must put into each of them. For instance, if you belong to FHA, you have monthly and district meetings, father daughter dinners, Daddy-Date Night, mother daughter dinners. the Mrs. Claus project, the candy stick sales, and many others. Multiply these time consuming events by the number of clubs one student belongs to, and you get a rough idea of the amount of involvement a student has in school organizations. It really is a commitment when you join one of the WC clubs. You must be ready to give up a lot of your free time — time that you might spend with your best friend, your date, the TV, or even your books. Instead some of that time goes into your organization activities. It is a big sacrifice but one the majority of students accept with enthusiasm. = ACTIVITIES 66 LEFT: Mrs. Nancy Chalfant and Andrea Walters. as a Student Council service, paint decorative Christmas scenes for the holidays.

This growing group managed to take two rewarding field trips. During Christmas the group visited the Randolph County Developmental Center providing a party for those individuals. Robin Bolinger, dressed as Santa, awarded presents to the bingo winners. Near the end, participants in the developmental center took our Health Careers people for a tour of the center and explained the jobs they each perform there. A trip to Butler University was the second field trip our group made. In this all day exercise members listened to professors explain health careers. From LPN to mortician, lab tech to neurosurgeon, students learned what they should take in high school to prepare for a career in health services. One segment of the day was spent watching Dick Gregory host the BRAIN GAME on stage before health careers. Make History The Junior Historical Society was formed this year as the high school equivalent of our elementary Little Hoosiers program. The purpose of the historical society was to assist the Randolph County Historical Society. On Saturdays our members help at the museum by mowing grass, raking leaves, cleaning and dusting. The museum houses clothes, uniforms, and other memorabilia of this county’s history. Our members attended meetings where they learned how to restore antique furniture and prepare stained glass. Also each student of the society developed their genealogy. FIRST ROW: Mrs. Wilma Hahn, sponsor; J R. Spencer; Robin Bolinger; Amy Frazier; Lisa Sipe: Angie Jenkins; Joe Whitesel.

Another outside bonus came from Andrea Penrod for her poem assigned to the closing page. Four deadlines came and went accepting the 140 pages comprising the GOLDEN ERA. FIRST ROW: Dee Cochran; Cindy Stilwell; Julie Johnson; Janice Jarrett: Miss Polly Roberts, sponsor. SECOND ROW: Scott Kramer. Lori Florence. Jane Stalcup. Jonna Waltz. Kevin Helton. Not pictured: Angie Downing and Craig West. The Youth Advisory Council strives to meet at least once a month. The student participants are the ‘ambassadors’ for the food service program serving as a laison between the student body and Mrs. Terrell. In meetings these students provide suggestions and note preferences in food choices. It is the purpose of the program to make our food program the best it can be and to hopefully teach students something about nutrition. As a result of the YAC meetings our alternate offerings in the lunch line have come directly from the student survey. Snack items such as Debbie Cakes and apples have also been added due to this group. Moreover, the decorations brightening up our cafeteria are compliments of YAC. Next year Mrs. Terrell hopes to offer food tasting as another feature to members. They will be asked to taste different brands of one item, hamburgers for example, and determine the one with the best flavor. 75 Success Has A New Face FORCE 1 The 1983-84 school year has been one of new beginnings and fresh starts. It all began with Mr. Roberts as the new band director. Band started off the year winning at the Mermaid Festival in North Webster. During July the band went to Carmel showing more of THE FORCE and bringing home the trophy. Then the real pressure built up at the Brazil Invitational where the band placed fifth. Tension grew fierce for the district competition which was held at WC. The work paid off as THE FORCE brought home all the honors except inspection. Then it was off to Miami University for the postgame preview. Finally it was a trip to Charleston and another clean sweep of all the honors. With practice done, it was time for state competition. It was what the band had worked for all year. It was a tough break loosing first place by a mere .7 of a point to Lawrence North. The biggest and best event of the year was a trip to Louisville, Kentucky to march in the Derby parade (Pegasus parade). Our FORCE brought back the prized GRAND CHAMPS.

Close to 100 students attended this retreat. This was WC’s third year. Winchester’s students went to many group sessions which were based on how to manage one's time, becoming a better person, and on how students can strengthen their leadership abilities so that they can become better leaders.

They started out with their initiation of new members, which was held at Goodrich Park. In November, FHA had its annual “Daddy Date Night”, pictures were taken of the members and their fathers. The year also consisted of the Christmas party, the Sweetheart dance, and the state Leadership Conference. The state Leadership Conference (April 5, 6, 7) was a lot of fun for the six members, two parents, and Mrs. Gardner. The three days were TOP RIGHT: Karla Rheinscheld rocks the night away at the FHA Rock-a-thon. MIDDLE: Hams Todd Peters. Lisa Fisher. Kyle Bush, and Missy Cline take time-out to pose for a picture.

The self competitive proficiency events turned out to be a great success. WC's FHA chapter brought home three gold medals received by Karla Rheinscheld, Lori Florence, and Lesia Dillie; and two silver medals received by Theresa Dillie and Joyce Harris. Lisa Bo-linger also received WC’s Honorary Chapter award. On the last night of the conference, the 1984-85 state officers were installed.

Locally students elect government officers. At the leadership election, our candidates compete against those of five other schools. At this time all are divided into house and senate committees. Next the students in the house and senate review the bills coming out of the committees. The last event places these novice legislators in the state house. Bills are passed or vetoed. And those which make it are presented to our own governor. This year’s journalism class has been very busy. Besides doing class studies, they put out a school paper once a month and write two stories a week on current events. In addition they help teachers with typing. Their special feature each year is the SENIOR EDITION with wills and most-likely-to sections. The main objective of this class is to teach skills in newspaper writing and editing. But next year this class will hopefully expand to cover interviewing, photojournalism, theme development, etc. And most importantly, it is hoped that the yearbook staff will become a part of this class for at least the first semester. Both classes will benefit from this. FLOOR: Ncdra Hines, Annette Rees. SITTING: Kim Harrell, Monica Hotmire, Cindy Miller, Tammy Terrell.

Some of the songs were “Lift Up Your Eyes, “Up Where We Belong, and “Life Is A Celebration. This concert and others, have helped the Local Vocals gain recognition in the community.

The sports year at WC was very successful. The football team was a super success and earned the name “Black Attack.” The wrestling team sent Larry Hunt to state competition. During our regular basketball season the Falcons upset rival Jay County. Of course, these are not all the sports. There are volleyball, cross country, track, golf, and baseball. And the main ingredient common to all sports is practice. Every day after school. rain or shine, our athletes are out there running the halls, doing laps in the gym, pounding the pavement, batting into nets at the fieldhouse, and so on. They work hard and that work pays off. Even our fans put forth a lot of effort by appearing at events and cheering for our Falcons. All this amounts to a WC spirit. And whether a participant or spectator, everyone is a part of that rich spirit. No one is a loser.

TEC On August fourth at 12:00 PM the WCHS varsity football team began their new season as being one of the first teams to practice in the state of Indiana. This practice started the many summer practices in one of the hottest summers in years. The football team picked up the nickname “BLACK ATTACK and successfully put it to use as they had a season record of 8-2. They finished the TRI-EASTERN CONFERENCE with a 6-0 record and first place. After beating Hagerstown (who had made it to the final four in the state last year), WC was ranked in the top fifteen in the state in class AA. Thanks to our twelve seniors who stuck with our program, WC improved from a 1-9 record in 1981 to a 8-2 record in 1983. The state play-off cluster was a new dimension to high school football this season. The 320 football schools in the state were divided into four classes according to enrollment. Each class is divided into sixteen clusters. WC finished their cluster with a 3-2 record and 3rd place. WC's cluster consisted of WC, Hagerstown, Centerville, Shenandoah, Knightstown, and Yorktown. Winners advanced to state play-offs.

The 1983 Cross Country season was a pleasant turn around from 1982. The Falcon runners displayed a topnotch competitive attitude as they were 7-1 in dual meets compared to 3-5 a year ago. The team had a strong finish in the Tri Eastern Conference match as they were runncrups. Craig Sherwood was named to the fist all TEC selection from WC in cross country since 1980. The team also had a strong finish in the County as three WC runners received All-County honors, they were: Craig Sherwood, Terry Thornburg, and Gary Elleman.

Because we were starting up a new team, our main objectives were to gain experience, work on the fundamentals, and learn to enjoy the game of golf. Now with these things achieved, I am hoping our girls will show up next year with some self-confidence and a competitive spirit. Coach Polly Roberts After two long years without a girls golf team, WC got a fresh new start this year. Being an inexperienced team, the girls put in a rough season. But the highlight came when our girls defeated Monroe Central by a 2-stroke lead. Invitationals added some fun too. Seniors Robin Bolinger, Janice Jarrell, and Kathy Wallace will be missed in our 1984 season.

SECTIONAL RUNNER-UP 103 WRESTLING ’83-84 The 1983-84 wrestling season got off to a rough start but finished with a number of fine performances and many highlights. As a team the Falcon wrestlers had a super season finishing 10 and 3 in dual meets. The wrestlers were crowned both county and conference champs. With these achievements, the wrestlers upheld the fine tradition as WC has been county champs for the last 5 out of 6 years and has won the TEC title the last four of our five seasons. We also had strong individual efforts as we placed wrestlers as far up as semi-state and state. These great performances started with sectional as Todd Gullett, Jim Doughty, and Larry Hunt received honors to go onto regional action. Freshman Todd Gullett and Senior Larry Hunt came out of this regional as champions. When the semi-state was over, Larry Hunt qualified for the state finals.

Although our record does not show it with four in sixteen, the Falcons did some outstanding things this rebuilding year with a new coach. Outstanding individual efforts were honored as well. Brad Burelison and Steve Jarrett were selected to the all county team. Brad went on to be selected to the TEC. One highlight of the season was when the Falcons defeated arch rivals Jay County and Union City back to back. And these much cherished victories came on the opponents home courts.

We’ll remember all the years we’ve waited for this day And look ahead to see if it was a small price to pay. We’ll look back on Monday mornings and homework we had And gym class and lunch and the latest fad We’ll think of initiations we went through to belong And class rings and ball games and the latest hit song. Trips we’ve planned and taken will seem like only dreams As twelve years of school has gone so fast, it seems On the threshold of freedom and responsibilities we face There will always be the ceremonies the future can’t erase. Together we will say goodbye and wish luck to our friends As we plan our seperate futures and our school life ends With hopes and future plans we’ll break free and say And as individuals, we know it’s been a small price to pay.
