The team was young, with only two sen- iors, Jasper Copey and Benedict Yazzie; but they ended with an im- pressive record. The Bears placed either first or second at all the meets. Despite Jasper Copey’s slow start due to injuries, his teammates filled the gap by placing at the top in the various meets. It was a satisfy- ing year to have a first place finish in state, after settling for second last year. The future looks bright for the cross country Bears, with all but two returning for the 87 season.

Faces From Dorm 11 The Athletic Dorm (D-11) is unique because it is home to most of the athletes at Wingate in grades 9- 12. It’s unique because everyone supports everybody else. On away games, Dorm 11 tries to take the rest of the students so they can cheer for their teammates. The staff’s concern for the student’s academic standing is evident. They keep a close watch on grades and failing lists so that Dorm 11 students remain academically eligible. The kitchen staff cooperates with the demands of the athletic schedules and provides hot meals before and after games when needed. Mr. Milliken, the Dorm Supervisor, has been at Wingate for eleven years. The Athletic Dorm was formed two years ago and has proven itself successful. Pictured on these pages are: Mr. Choyou, Mrs. Draper, Mrs. Sage, Mrs. Keevama, Mr. Jefferson, Mr. Hildreth and Mr. Martin. 74 Varsity: Coach Stall, Victor Begay, Howard Billy, Russ Antone, Richard Chester, Lew Harrison, Coach Keevama.

The Bears won the match which came on a snowy Thursday evening in January and left the Bernalillo team stranded at Wingate for a couple of days. They were guests of Dorm Il, and learned the ropes of Gi living. They finally managed to head for home on Saturday morning. Veterans + Rookies = A Winning Combination Grapple To Success The wrestling team had an interesting mixture of first year people and re- turning varsity lettermen together with those from last year’s junior varsity to provide for an exciting and somewhat surprising season. Lew Harrison at 185, Henry Nez at 119 and Victor Begay at 138 were the returning varsity lettermen. Craig Duncan at 126, Russ Antone 155, Merle Shorty 105 and Howard Billy 145 carried with them their junior Left: The team watches intently as Derrick Joe goes against Ber- nalillo’s only female wrestler. varsity experience. Rich- ard Chester and Tom Chatto, both seniors, were new to wrestling but fared well in their matches. Individually, Richard ended the regu- lar season with a 12-10 re- cord and 4-2 in district action. Although Tom lost his first 14 matches, he won by pin and deci- sion in the Navajo Acade- my - Shiprock triangular to give him a 2-3 district standing. Others qualify- ing for district seeding (3 JV: Coach Stall, Paulson Thom- as, Michael Newman, Clint To- dacheenie, Tony Smith, Derrick Joe, Jeffrey Begay, Coach Kee- vama. Or more wins) were Merle Shorty, Victor Be- gay, Howard Billy, Rich- ard Chester and Lew Har- rison.

Although there weren’t many participants, some teachers, most notably Ms. Schwenig, made up the gap with some cute outfits. Tuesday was Punk Day and there was a lot more participation from the students as well as staff. Ms Ashbrook looked divine in her imitation of Rosanna Banana (see page 107) in a tight skirt, with a long seductive slit in the back. Her hair was wild along with her make-up. Mr. Bull, Mr. Yoder and Mr. Bonnett echoed the past with their late 60’s get-up. Wednes- day was backward day and for some, it was fun but confusing. The schedule was reversed, with 7th hour being first in the morning and Ist hour being last. Thursday was dress-up day and many students and staff took the extra time to look a little nicer for the occasion. That afternoon during the Coronation assembly, the candidates and their escorts were presented and the new royalty announced. 79 Enthusiasm ... ‘‘Our season wasn’t too good, but the team kept their pride and spirit - for each other and for them- selves. ’’ Johnny David, Senior Top: Football players wait for the parade to start.

The students learned the parts of the stage, the types of plays, and the qualities of an actor. After learning about the- atre, they put what they learned to work. The first play they performed was The Ugly Duckling (next page) in December. In January they per- formed The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe.

The Recreation Staff provides many activities for the students during the long hours following the last ring of the bell. Besides keeping the canteen going (The Student Union Building), there is plenty to do with movies, skating, weightlifting, aerobics and exercise class, arts and crafts, and dances for special occasions. It’s a big job trying to entertain almost 700 people on a daily basis. Pictured above: Ray Spencer, Judy John, J.J.

This is what the kitchen staff faces throughout the school year as they serve four times daily; breakfast, split lunches, and dinner. On weekends, the schedule is changed slightly to three meals on Saturday and a brunch on Sunday for those who do not go home. During the weekdays, certain classes ' are required to help serve chow at lunch. For breakfast and dinner, the different dorms take turns every month. When there are school sponsored trips, the kitchen provides sack lunches for the students who seem to enjoy their goodies. Family members are invited to eat with the students at the cafeteria for Thanksgiving and Christmas with staff members helping to serve. The kitchen is the scene for special event banquets such as Prom, ROTC Ball, and the Athletic Banquet.
