Notable academic achievements, award win- ning spirit, runner up in A.C.A.C. basketball, and speech team championships (the list is endless) were all accomplished by students of a small time school. Suddenly larger schools were aware of the Woodlan name. Greater school awareness bonded the stu- dents, creating expanded pride, spirit and attitude to- ward school activities. This change in the attitude and feeling for the school made it inevitable that finally we were BREAKING THROUGH. For the second time in its histo- ry the cheerleaders and fans re- ceive the ACAC Sportsmanship Award.

Newly elected President Ronald Reagan, immediately following the taking of the oath of office, was informed of the news and quickly pre- pared for their return. After 444 days of captivity these brave souls were brought to Washington and treated to the best wel- come home the United States could muster. The celebration was not limited to D.C. The trees sur- rounding the front drive way were tied in yellow, and on the National Day of Thanks- giving, (declared by Rea- gan), the German Club circu- lated yellow ribbons for the students and faculty to wear. These contributions to the celebration made Woodlan feel just a little bit closer to the real world.

(A. P. Laserphotos) Current Events student Life Change became a way of life for many students with the modification of several irre- versible rules. For the first time the Juicy Fruit did not have to be hid- den between the cheek and gum when teachers passed. Many times they were chewing too. The privileges did not stop with gum. Six inches between people in the halls was forgot- ten after the upheaval of stu- dents against the hand hold- ing rule. The administration decided to lift the rule and al- lowed those of the opposite sex to communicate not just by talking but also by holding hands. These privileges made the atmosphere much more re- laxed and helped to give a feel- ing of peace throughout the school. Student Life 9 Revolting against tradition, ' Punk Rock ' hit its peak. Alligator and fox shirts were handsomely displayed as designer clothes hit the halls. Indiana leads the nation in drawing fans to basketball games. Warpaint has become a way in which Warriors support their teams. FEATURE : TADS 1980 was a year for bringing back the fad, Some were fun some were daring and some were just plain bad. We paraded around in Gloria Vanderbilt and Calvin Klein, Orson Wells told us not to drink wine before it ' s time. Every city slicker became an Urban Cowboy Mechanical horses were elected the latest toy. AC-DC was Back in Black, and Shook Us All Night Long. Kenny Rogers made the charts with Lady his hit song. Disco started on its way out, and New Wave became a must. But rock-and-roll was still going strong with Another One Bites the Dust. At the flicks, horror films made it big All we wanted was blood, guts, and one more grave to dig. Everyone ' s fantsy was to become a perfect 10 We braided our hair, drank Perrier, and took up jogging again. We forgot about Farrah Fawcett who we once used to adore Now everyone loves Miss Piggy, America ' s favorite boar. Just when we began to think earth was one big place People decided to take a cosmic trip to space. Space Invaders, Star Trek, and Star Wars hit the scene The Empire Strikes Back with, what else, a laser beam. Revolting against tradition, Punk Rock hit its peak With purple hair, leather pants, and safety pins in their cheek. And every Friday night on Dallas we watched to see which star, Could answer the age old question of Who shot old J.R. Some things people said when they were feeling especially daring, Were What a Trip, That ' s Cosmic, and Thanks for Sharing. So if you hate the Muppets, and Cowboy boots, never fear, Just wait for another fad to come around next year. By Renae Keifer Cars seem to be as big with teachers as with the students with the Z-28, G-2, and Rally Sport Camero attracting the most atten- tion. Plain old blue jeans never die. they just fade a little. Fads 11 Warriors Dim Kniglits ' Liglits Active, excited competition be- tween classes highlighted Home- coming Week to the theme Knock Out the Lights of the Nor- well Knights. Over 50% of the school personnel participated in the various activities which had been pre-chosen by the students. The uniforms of the days were: Monday: Blue and White Day Tuesday: Sweatshirts and Stuffed Animal Day Wednesday: Hats, Socks and Shades Day Thursday: Dress Down Day Friday: Dress Up Day Excitement mounted as stu- dents filed into the gym for the Friday afternoon pep session, fea- turing Mssster Woodlan Home- coming. All this enthusiasm and student participation boosted the morale of the team as they plunged into a well-fought battle against Norwell. In the first quarter of the game, it was evident that it was going to be a rough game. The Knights held 8th place in the state; how- ever, the Warriors ' determination to score over-came even the slightest thought of being intimi- dated. They ended the game with a 26-12 score. During the halftime activities, Denise Myers was crowned Homecoming Queen, and the sophomore class won the float competition. Featuring the band Dream, the dance following the game helped round out an active and successful Homecoming Week.

Homecoming 13 Final Vote Cast After 25 Years The Presidential election inten- sified the 25th annual mock elec- tion. AC DC, ACE, TOGA, KEG, and MAGIC symbolized Mr. Briegel ' s five government classes that campaigned for top offices. Preparation for the event be- gan three weeks prior to the elec- tion day. Each day proved to be more exciting and competitive. When November 4th finally ar- rived, everyone anticipated the announcement of the winners. As quickly as the enthusiasm had risen; it died. By 3:15 on elec- tion day candidates had torn down posters and taken off but- tons . . . mock elections had end- ed .. . for the last time. Winners Pres.: Brent Wells V.

Mock Elections 15 Pep Sessions Provide Popular Cliange Unlike past years, pep sessions this year had an added twist. During football season, the Mssster Homecom- ing contest entertained the students. Following the structure of the typical beauty contest, evening gowns and swimsuits were modeled by brawny football players. The talent phase featured Mark Pusey doing a boogie with modern dance and Steve Frecker singing an aria from TOSCA. Brent Wells twirled his baton into the hearts of the judges while Todd Davis showed his ballet talents, and Scott Thompson shook his stuff to the Hawaiian War Chant. Later in the year the Student Council provided the first hour long pep session called the Basketball Feud. The arch rivals, the Leo Lions, headed by Dingy Daddy (Mark Pusey), got off to a great beginning when they answered the first question correctly. The success was short lived when the Warriors took over with Coach Martin (Sheryl Engle) leading the way. In the past, pep sessions were a routine mixture of cheers and introductions, sprinkled with an occasional dash of pep. This year with changes in the format and content of the pep sessions, students broke through with new and creative activities which aroused school spirit. The Leo Lions, Mark Pusey. Krista Eager, Laura Stutzman, Jerry Hammon, Tammy Mullett, map out their strategy in order to out guess the Woodlan Warriors.

Pep Sessions 17 As Time Goes On As Time Goes On, memories of the Junior-Senior Prom will remain. The summer sun and the evening breeze provided the perfect setting for the elegant occasion. Approxi- mately 270 students and faculty members gathered at the Lantern to create a memorable evening. Dinner consisted of New York strip steak, baked potato, corn, tossed salad, and a variety of cakes. Follow- ing the dinner, junior class president Anita Huff welcomed the guests. Maintaining the tradition of giving joke awards to the seniors, Devin Anderson presented the coveted honors. Todd Davis walked away with the two most notorious awards — Most Conceited and Class Flirt; Kim Bearman received Most Con- ceited for the girls, and Alicia Waiko was voted Class Flirt. Kurt Bremer and Laura Stutaman were named Biggest Penny Pinchers. Terry Bush was awarded two prestigious awards — Most Likely to Succeed and Most Studious; Kathy Mull and Lyn Rowel! also received these awards respec- tively. Todd Shanebrook and Vickee Bergman were voted as the two who showed the Most School Spirit, while Mark Pusey and Vicky Nicole were honored as the two with the Most Pleasing Personalities. Renae Keifer and cowboy-clothed Jeff Hen- sely were named as the Class Clowns, and David Petry and Jean- ette Quinn were embarrassed to find they had been named the two who Blush Most Easily. During the intermission, students posed for keepsake pictures taken by Watters Studio. During the coro- nation ceremony, former king and queen Brent Wells and Gina Hans crowned Devin Anderson and Anita Huff as the new prom king and queen. Pan Arnos and Mark Ander- son were named first runners-up; Rick Gerig and Teri Gerig were sec- ond runners-up; and Jeff Berning and Fay Yoder were third runners- up. The newly elected royalty danced to the music played by Swango. When the sun had set and the night had grown cooler, the long awaited prom ended, and As Time Goes On, the memories of that night will live in each person ' s mind forever.

Grover Cleveland once said, Honor lies in honest toil. Many high school students were honored at the annual Honor Night for their hard work and accomplishments in the areas of academics and for out- standing extra-curricular perfor- mances. Lyn Rowell and Cindy Clark were presented as valedictorian and salu- tatorian respectively; Laura Stutz- man received the citizenship award; and Brent Wells was the only senior who was honored with a senior blan- Runners: Mike Faith, Rick Harris, Roger Baeumler, Trina Chapman, Tim Tracey, and ket. Honor Night was very successful. Over 500 people turned out for the event, and with the organizational skills of the student Council it ran smoothly. During the day junior high stu- dents were honored for their achievements. Many students re- ceived awards to be proud of. One such award was given to Mike Fuell- ing for becoming a finalist in a na- tional art competition. Neal Lenacher are presented by Mr. Steven Holt as the cross country team. Individual members of the boys track team broke many school records during their sea- son. The letter winners consisted of Mitch Armbruster, Kevin Swartz. Kent Hoffm an, Gary Vondran, Devin Anderson, Todd Davis, and Craig Bontrager. 20 Honor Night A certificate for being on the all A honor roll was just one of the many awards given to Cathy Crestinger during Junior High Honor Day The National Honor Society golden chord IS awarded yearly to graduating members- Becky Bnttingham witnesses as Terry Bush is presented as part of this presti- gious group.

Promptly as 7:30 p.m., the seniors took the short walk up the aisle that would turn them out into the world as young adults. The Reverend Lynn Soughan gave the Baccalaureate address, and Dr. Otis Bowen was the honored guest who gave the commencement ad- dress. Salutatorian Cindy Clark ex- panded on the theme, WE KNOW WHAT WE ARE, BUT KNOW NOT WHAT WE MAY BE, and Valedictori- an Lyn Rowell gave her speech on growing up and living in Christ. Mr. Dewayne Heckley and Mr. Jerry Bush presented the Class of 81 with the diplomas that declared them official graduates. The class chose royal blue, light blue, and white as class colors and a white silk rose as the class flower. WE KNOW WHAT WE ARE, BUT KNOW NOT WHAT WE MAY BE was chosen as the motto, in hopes that the members of the Class of 81 would be everything that they want- ed to be. We know what we are, but know not what we may be. We have our entire lives ahead of us. Please Lord, we ask you to keep an eye out for us and to guide us through the rough times. We know there will be some. Help us to live to the fullest, and help us to see things and be able to un- derstand and accept things which we cannot control. Help us to help other people in the way that we would help ourselves, and above all Lord, we ask you for the power to love and care for our fellow man, and to love you with all our hearts. — KKB May 21, 1981 fer gi }i | H tt rt n r( m .

Graduation 2.3 Magic Mystery Possess Productions Kim Bearman teaches Todd Brown not to mess around with her at rehe arsal. With the stage darkened, the actors ready, and the audiences waiting, the casts of the drama productions real- ized the late, late nights of rehearsals were worth the effort and energy ex- pended. The moment to show off act- ing, singing and dancing talents had come. There was no turning back; it was time to break a leg. The fall dramatic production, THE CRUCIBLE by Arthur Miller, focussed historically on the 17th C. Salem witch trials. Each of the characters in the play came to life through the apt por- trayals by students. Directed by Louise Jones with help from student director, Kristi Miller-THE CRUCIBLE enabled students to exper- ience the demands and rewards of per- forming a heavy, historical drama. No less demanding or rewarding — the spring production of PIPPIN re- quired actors to don dance shoes and dance clothes and beat, twist and pound muscles in to shape in order to perform intricat e dance numbers. PIPPIN was produced with the com- bined efforts of four people: Louise Jones, drama; Joan Phillips, music; Kelley Pierce, dance; Dean Ray, techni- cal. Among them they transformed the gym into a theatre complete with spe- cial effects, glitz and actors commit- ted to creating an evening of magic for the audiences. PIPPIN dazzled the crowd with fantastic costumes and outrageous make-up, and the company wowed audiences with their talent. With Magic to Do the outlandish dance company emerged through the darkness of the stage with glowing fas- cination — gaudy, accomplished yet sensitive in their portrayals of the char- acters. PIPPIN deals with one man ' s search for identity and meaning in life. After sampling all of life (the highs and the lows). Pippin discovers the essence of life sometimes is found in our own backyards. PIPPIN was a courageous undertak- ing — a difficult and complex musical to produce. The glamour and glitter of costumes, sets and actors shone dur- ing performances because of love, tal- ent and a huge amount of hard work. While Rebecca Nurse (Kathy Mull) and Ablgai Williams (Marcia Rosene) contemplate the dis- turbing possibility of witchcraft, Betty Parris (Wendy Miller) lies afflicted by these supernatu- ral powers. The courtroom members are stunned as Abi- gail (Marcia Rosene) leads them to believe that the spirit of a witch is in their presence. 24 Drama As dead bodies clutter the battlefield, Charle- magne (Jon Gerardot) and his followers pro- claim their victory. Deciding that war is not the place to find life ' s fulfillment, Pippin (Kyle Farmer) wishes he could take back the life of the soldier (Tami Von Gunten) that he has slain. As Berthe (Lynn Engle), Pippin ' s grandmoth- er, tells him to relax and enjoy life, she enjoys a little frolicking herself. Musical 25 Theme Songs Enhance Performances What does a rose, a gypsy, and a patent leather sneaker have in com- mon? As theme songs for the year the swing choir entertained with The Rose, I Can See It All, and The Old Soft Shoe, throughout their performances. The swing choir, made up of 25 members, grew in size and also in capabilities. Not only participating in Christmas and Spring programs, the swing choir joined six other choirs at the Northrop Swing Choir Spectacu- lar finding themselves critiqued by Walter Lamble from Glenview, Illi- nois, and in the evening performing in front of 535 people. The swing choir practiced at 7:00 in the morning Monday through Thursday each week. Practice was a time for learning songs, dancing, and growing closer to other mem- bers. Not only did they have a rose, a gypsy, and a patent leather sneaker in common, but they also had com- raderie.

Inflation has decreased the buying power of all Americans. Webster defines inflation as an increase in the amount of money in circulation, resulting in a rela- tively sharp and sudden fall in its value coupled with a rise in prices. All kinds of prices are rising rapidly such as gas prices which continue to rise ap- proaching $2.00 per gallon. We have been warned to slow down on the highways, drive conservatively and use car pools, yet Americans continue to drive single cars. Rising gas prices didn ' t stop people from travelling some distance for enter- tainment. Teenagers really couldn ' t do anything without spending the bucks. Going to movies, pizza parlors, rollerskating rinks, basketball games, football games, bowl- ing alleys and the arcades were the princi- ple forms of entertainment for teenagers. David Dingledork ' s plight typified the economic situation for teenagers in 1981 . Dingledork was an active member of his marching band at Dudley High School. Winning the band fund raising sale by sell- ing the most Cracker Jack, Dingledork ac- quired a $100.00 prize. Finally he had enough money to ask Suzie Stuckup for a date — something he dreamed about all year. The big night arrived and David was ready. He wore his brand new $30.00 Cal- vin Kleins and new $30.00 Izod sweater which left $40.00 for one single night of paradise. Suzie decided that a quiet din- ner for two at Mountain Jacks and then a quiet, romantic movie would be just splendid. David figured two movie tickets at $3.75 a piece would be $7.50, and two Mountain Jack dinners would cost be- tween $20.00 and $25.00 which he could easily cover. No . . . No! First he had to fill his gas tank up which cost $1 5.00 and left only $25.00 for the evening. How could he tell Suzie that he couldn ' t take her to a movie and dinner both? What a dilemma! Amazingly Miss Stuckup took the news very well telling Dingledor k that spending money wasn ' t the only way to have a good time, and she ' d rather see a movie than eat out anytime. The days of the night on the town had passed. People had to make choices about what form of entertainment to choose.

The mixed chorus sang for various churches at Christmastime with the cantata For God So Loved ... This cantata was basically a combi- nation of some favorite Christmas carols in a joyful combination glorify- ing Christ ' s name. The mixed chorus also sang for the Golden Years Nurs- ing Home, as well as for many other concerts. The girls ' glee, made up of ninth and tenth grade girls, also pleased many people with their music. They sang for various concerts during the Christmas season and in the spring. Both choirs consisted of people who enjoyed singing and who en- joyed making people happy through the magic of music and song. Mixed Chorus members relax between songs.

They participated in the Win- ter and Spring Concerts, the Sen- ior Citizen ' s Dinner at Christmas, the NISBOVA contest, and a Ju- nior High Choral Festival in the spring which Included all East Al- len ' s Junior High Choirs. Mrs. Phillips expressed how nice it was to have an enthusias- tic choir and an especially fine barritone section of 13 guys. The Junior High Band was also very spirited. They played at the Winter and Spring Concerts, NIS- BOVA, and the Carroll basketball game. Mr. Taylor commented The band was made up of 2 3 guys which is unusual, and, he contin- ued, The band as a whole was better than an average junior high band. In the NISBOVA contest, each person competed against himself for a superior rating. Some stu- dents who received superior rat- ings in Fort Wayne wer eligible to perform at the state level in In- dianapolis. Paul Camp.

Jr. High Music 33 Rhythm Raises Spirit Many elements were involved in the rise of spirit within the student body. One of these elements was the Warrior band. Sitting in the stands for both football and basketball seasons, the band played row- dy, spirit-raising songs which engulfed ev- eryone in the excitement of the games. Directed by Mr. Ted Taylor the band worked in close association with the drill squad which was sponsored by Mrs. Deb- bie Roth. All through the summer, both groups worked hard in preparation for the many upcoming summer parades. The Warriorettes strutted their stuff with the band following close behind to the tune of Breakthrough for the Wood- burn Days, Harlan Days, and Three Rivers Festival parades. During the football and basketball seasons, half-time entertain- ment was provided by the band and drill squad with flag, pom pon, dance and marching routines to such music as A Chorus Line, Dim All the Lights, and Hot Stuff. the JV drill squad also per- formed for various half times of varsity basketball games. The girls performed to the music of Vegas, Peg, and Wade in the Water which was performed with the varsity drill squad. Both groups sold Polynesian Tan suntanning products in order to raise money to provide a summer band camp program. In addition, the drill squad sold M M ' s to raise money to attend the Fred J. Miller camp, designed especially for drill teams. The Warriorettes attended the Defiance, Ohio Fred J. clinic in July and returned with many ribbons and hon- ors won in competition. Even though the drill squad began the season with twenty members, for various reasons seven girls had to drop out, leav- ing the Warriorettes with a thirteen mem- ber squad. This gave the girls the chance to prove that quality outweighs quantity. In addition to the marching band, mem- bers also were active in a concert band and a pep band. The pep band consisted of only a minority of the marching and concert band members, and they pro- vided music for pep sessions throughout the year. The concert band gave Christ- mas and Spring concerts and also attend- ed NISBOVA contest at West Noble where they received a second place rating. All band and drill squad members prac- ticed long and hard to give a good show, and they proved that a good performance is essential. Teresa Wahl gives it her all while perform- ing with the varsity drill squad during a pep session as Mike Hetrick enjoys the show. 34 Band Drill Squad JV Drill Squad: (Front row) Teresa Logan; Sandy Doan; Karin Koch; Rhonda Strieker; (Second row) Melody Malfait; Greta Har- ris; Violet Brown; Amy Getting; (Back row) Shelley Phillips; Meri Ruckman; Jill Ne- whard; Anita Steury.

V Like standing on one side of a glass window, looking at possi- ble experiences, clubs gave students a chance to BREAK THROUGH and learn skills that could later be used. These skills were developed through clubs ranging from the medical careers club to the drama club, helping in the de- velopment of hobbies as well as occupational knowledge. These experiences were not limited to the surrounding area however. Travel became com- monplace, as the ski club found the Colorado mountains and the Spanish club, Mexico. Through differing methods of gathering experience and skill, clubs became an important as- set in many students ' lives. Clubs 37 Sport Spirit Coordinate Efforts Recreation and exercise motivat- ed students to take part in the Intra- murals Club. Mr. Gay Martin and Mrs. Norma Gilbert helped these students learn about such sports as volleyball, dodgeball, and soccer. The Sportsman Club, sponsored by Mr. Dennis Miesle and Mr. Tom Harris, allowed students to partici- pate and learn about outdoor sports such as hunting, snowmobiling, and fishing. Sponsored by Mr. Don Myers, the Spirit Club devoted one hour a month to designing and painting colorful posters to excite the stu- dent body and athletic teams. All high school cheerleaders were re- quired to participate in this club, and anyone else who wished to join were welcomed.

Di- rected by Student Council Presi- dent Cindy Clark, members planned Homecoming and Spirit Week. For funding they sold cheese with a $1147.90 total profit. With that money they held a dinner for senior citizens and a Valentine ' s dance with free re- freshments. NHS stands for National Honor Society. Juniors and Seniors were chosen by the staff members on the basis of character, scholar- ship, leadership, and service. In order to be chosen each of the students had to maintain a B or better grade average. Both organizations proved that leadership and scholarship are two big steps to becoming a bet- ter person. Individual growth was the most important thing gained by all members.

Sponsors for the F.H.A. were Mrs. Shirley Deetz and Mrs. Julia Wil- son. The Future Farmers of America was sponsored by Mr. Donald Hefty and Mr. Richard Grubaugh. Members of both clubs were very active and participated in many ac- tivities. FHA ' ers accompanied their dads on Daddy Date Nite, blessed their mothers with roses at the Rose Banquet, held Easter egg hunts, and muddled through candy sales. FFA ' ers attended the Spring Awards Banquet, and the chili sup- per. They built an energy wagon and held a consignment auction. Although these were important and fun, Mark Pusey boasted that the fruit and seed sales were the most popular ever. In the spring, officers from both clubs attended state leadership con- ferences. They met new friends and brought back many fresh ideas for the following year. Those things helped them strive Towards New Horizons; and by Learning to learn; Earning to live; Living to serve; they strived for the future.

It was a year for initiating new ideas and setting new records. The Drama Club ' s top priority was the production of a variety show, Star- shine Review ' 81. Twelve students per- formed various acts for a chance to win in one of the five categories. The win- ner of the Best Dance was Pam Arnos; Kim Hatcher received Best Vocalist; the award for the Funniest and also Most Original was given to Kristi Miller and the band Deadline , consisting of Todd Brown, Mike Kouder, Kerry Mc- Kinley, Keith Ort and Eric McKinley, composer of the group ' s songs, re- ceived the Best Instrumental award. The recipients of the awards were determined by a panel of five highly qualified judges including Woodlan ' s own Jane Sullivan. Jim Schmidt, drama director at Heritage High School, Kel- ley Pierce, choreographer of Wood- lan ' s musicals, volunteered their ser- vices, together with two area celebri- ties-Mike Barnard of Channel 15 and Tony Robinson from Tony ' s Place on WOWO Radio. Todd Davis hosted the evening and added to the variety by not only intro- ducing the acts but also by amusing the audience with jokes and humorous personal stories. The show which sold out with standing room only was a huge success. The Speech Team had an outstand- ing season winning eight individual tro- phies and 101 ribbons with 17 of those being blue. The 16 members also com- bined their efforts to acquire eight team trophies. The team attended 17 meets around Indiana. The members beat the sun up every Saturday morning in order to begin speaking at 8:00 A.M. They often spoke into the late afternoon for ribbons and points to be recorded at the National Forensic League. Sheryl Engle, Kristi Miller, Bill Brown, Terry Bush, Cindy Clark and Kathy Mull lead the team in their accu- mulation of points and ribbons while Mrs. Louise Jones coached from the side. After a great deal of hard work, dedi- cation, late nights and early mornings, things finally paid off. Both groups had a remarkable year and had a great deal to show for it. 44 Drama Speech Clubs DRAMA CLUB (Front Row) Terry Bush; Kathy Mull; Rene Hege; Sheryl Engle: Kristi Miller; Mrs. Louise Jones, advisor; Lynn Engle: Troy Brown: (Second Row) L isa Gorrell; Krista Ea- ger; Joni Luenberger; Diana Gustin; Kelly Smith; Kathy Waiko: Lisa Hoeppner; Teri Geise; Debbie Barnes; (Back Row) Cindy Geary; Shan Vogtman; Renae Keifer; Marcia Rosene; Kim Hatcher; Jeanette Lomont Trudi Cretsinger; Chris Plott; Tammy Mullett Lori Colpetzer; Veronica Reeb; Chris Logan Tami VonGunten.

The Graphic Arts Club made a vari- ety of products, such as T-shirts, bumper stickers and tickets for exper- ience and profit. Mr. Michael Roy spon- sored the club and oversaw all pro- jects. The Photography Club ' s members used their time to learn the proper techniques of taking and developing the perfect picture with the assis- tance of Mr. Keith Pierson. The mem- bers of these two clubs learned skills that may possibly aid them in their ca- reers or earn them a little extra money. The Chess Club, sponsored by Mr. Alvin Waldron, increased their knowl- edge of a game that has been around since the 600 A.D. ' s. The members de- veloped skill, imagination, logic, as well as had a good time. The Rocket Club learned how mina- ture engines worked, not only in rock- ets, but in small race cars. They were under the supervision of Mr. Dean Ray. These clubs allowed students to de- velop skills, enjoy themselves, and profit in many ways.

In clubs, members obtainded skills in deal- ing with people in the community. Students who were curious about ca- reers in medicine were organized with Tom Adams to form the Medical careers club. The- Fellowship of Christian Athletes was an organization to provide athletes, not only with ideas of sports, but with Christian beliefs and service to the com- munity. For the juniors and seniors, prom is probably one of the most exciting and colorful events of the spring. The prom committee was credited with organizing decorations and the menu so that every- one might enjoy the evening. When friends joined together to share feelings and indulge in Bible studies, the purpose of Maranatha Fellowship was full- filled. In all, these clubs contributed some- thing to its members. Skills in communi- cation and relating to others were gained through times together. Involvement in activities provide initiative for involve- ment in the community.

The club also held their notorious initi- ation, this year by initiating its new members with manure. The Card Club, also sponsored by Mr. Briegel and Mr. Herman, con- sisted of approximately 37 mem- bers. The members of this club used their meeting times to learn the fun- damentals of the games of bridge and euchre. The German Club, headed by Mr. Steve Holt, increased its member- ship to 70.

Even after sponsoring ski trips, a trip to Frankenmuth, Michigan, an Octoberfest, and an end-of-the-year banquet at the Hei- delberg Cafe in Huntington, it re- mained the richest club. The club began a scholarship program and awarded Becky Brittingham, Trina Chapman, and Rose Carpanter $100.00 each for their outstanding achievements in their German class. The Spanish Club, headed by Mrs. Fickle, was 31 members strong. This program has proved to be very suc- cessful with its activities. The club held its annual Christmas party with Spanish customs, and for the sec- ond year in a row, it sponsored a trip to Mexico. 50 Communication Clubs Spanish Club members discuss the day ' s business.

The Wrestllng Matmaid Club had its re- strictions as to who could join; whereas the ski club drew up an in- terest among many students in trav- eling down the treacherous slopes of Swiss Valley. The Ski Club recruited many new skiers by sponsoring a 4- day trip to Breckenridge, Colorado. Many came back with souveniers to show, stories to tell and romances to dream about, but fortunately no one returned with injuries. The Wrestling Matmaids Club was a club which did its best to promote the sport of wrestling. This promo- tion created a great amount of sup- port by fans. The matmaids also sold seat cushions to help send the wres- tlers to state. As the ski season came to an end, faithful skiers looked forward to hit- ting the slopes again. The wrestlers prepared their bodies for grueling meets ahead while the matmaids thought up new promotional gim- micks. Wrestlers demonstrate their strength by arm wrestling. Matmaids work on creative ideas ' help support wrestlers.

Clubs 53 Academics Out in the farm country, one would think that the only sub- jects learned would be farming, home cooking, hunting, and sewing. Contrary to this belief, students of the hick school studied a wide range of sub- jects from analytics to zoology. The farm flavor, however, was not lost. The ever popular agriculture classes maintained their enrollment and gave a chance to those who wanted t o stay in the community to farm. Students who wished other occupations were also given that chance. Academic experiences were endless, giving the students a chance to BREAK THROUGH and become the people they wished to be. Language: A Vital Role Language plays a vital role in to- day ' s society. One must be able to read, write, and speak English cor- rectly in order to function well in this country. Nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, and many other seemingly for- eign words kept English students ' minds turning over. Students also wondered how everything would fi- nally fit into place, but it all did, and they made it through alive. If English alone wasn ' t enough to boggle one ' s brain, there were students who decided to study a for- eign language of either German or Spanish as well. When foreign lan- guage students finally recovered from the shock of conjugation, mixed-up word order, Sprechen Sie Deutsch?, and Que Pasa?, they realized that their foreign lan- guage study had helped them to gain a better understanding of their own English language. Students who wished to put their writing abilities to the test joined ei- ther the ARROW or the ROW WOW staff. Would-be writers who thought that they wrote fairly well learned that they did have room for im- provement when Ms. Jane Sullivan literally ripped their copy and arti- cles apart. There were also the voices of the notorious editors, Sheryl Engle, ARROW, and C.J. Geary, ROW WOW, screaming and ranting hysterically that a deadline was near. Members of both staffs were many times running around for sto- ries and typing so fast that they thought their fingers would fall off. Both staffs survived though, and the staff members produced two top- notch publications.

Language 57 Social Sciences Open Doors To Understanding From junior high to high school students were required to take so- cial studies. Many things were learned in this area of study. A course in world history was offered. History of the United States and its important documents were studied which started with 8th graders memorizing the Gettysburg Ad- dress. Then when students reached U.S. history in the 11th grade and government as seniors, the Declara- tion of Independence and the Con- stitution were brought into perspec- tive. There was even a course that studied important current events. Social Studies also included the field of economics. 8th graders were introduced to economics through a J. A. sponsored program called Pro- ject Business which involved bring- ing area businessmen into the class- room to talk about banking, stocks and bonds, and future careers. Sen- iors who weren ' t seventh semester graduates got another taste of the concepts of economics as they tried to make sense of the goals in their lives and how to reach them. Sociology and Psychology were two other important areas that could be studied. These courses dealt with the behavior of human be- ings and the societies they com- pose. Finally, starting with the seventh grade students, the importance of geography was stressed. Based on the principle that noth- ing strengthens a nation like learning about its past, the goal of the social sciences was to challenge students not to allow history to repeat itself. The Gettysburg Address Isn ' t only the name of a famous document. It ' s also familiar to the 8th graders as the name of an entire section of Mr. Donald Gundy ' s history class. The last minute of finishing up chapter work- sheets IS a struggle c ommon to Mr. William Mull ' s history students. 58 Sociai Studies ♦♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ J J J Seniors have mixed emotions as Mr. John Briegel explains how they are to take turns teaching each other the rest of the book tor the final five weeks. 7th graders keep Mr. James Sharron hopping as he tries to focus their attention on world affairs. Social Studies 59 Feature: Teachers are people tec! Teachers exhibited as many individual dif- ferences in teaching styles as did students in learning styles. This uniqueness created a diverse atmosphere in which students learned. Mr. Mike Roy headed the graphic arts area where the class stressed basic graphic skills. Students were introduced into a new area of design called super graphics where they could express their talents on the walls of the room; the designs brought the room to life. With Mr. Roy ' s animated face and the articulation of Lawrence Welk, there was al- ways a lively atmosphere in his room. Another very real to life teacher was Ms. Jane Sullivan. Being a down to earth person, she was good in relating to the students who passed in and out of her doors. Because of her ever flowing and hec- tic activities, students had to frequently re- mind her which class she was in. Mr. Howard Baulkey ' s extraordinary use of volume helped students grasp the skills of algebraic equations and other aspects of new math. Stepping into another world students be- came orators and actors as they walked into Mrs. Louise Jones ' room. Students debated issues, persuaded opponents to their posi- tion, pretended they were bacon or Iguanas, ranted and raved and generally were able to step out of their own personalities and take on the characteristics of another person or thing. As the teaching techniques varied from teacher to teacher, so did their personal- ities. The teachers were not to be feared; they were real people too — just different.

Feature 61 Career Classes Introduce Real Job Problems Vocational Courses contributed to students ' opportunities before they un- derwent life in the working world. Students had first hand experience as the typed mock business letters in typing class and hand crafted tables and other useful projects in woods class. They were baffled by the com- plexity of copy and duplicating ma- chines; they had to practice many safety methods in order to keep all their fingers. Although it took a great deal of time and practice, these obsta- cles were overcome with the help of the fine instructors. Students tackled such courses as typing, shorthand and bookkeeping with Mr. Joseph Bell assisting. In Office Practice students could temporarily portray secretaries with Mr. Keith Pier- son playing the role of the boss and demonstrating the most efficient method of operating adding machines, typewriters and duplicating machines. Mr. Ray Gilbert lead instruction of re- cordkeeping, making payrolls and oth- er techniques of business operations. Industrial Arts students learned to make products out of wood and metal. They learned the safest method for op- erating the machines and using the tools. The students finally could operate the various machines both in the In- dustrial Arts department as well as the business areas. The students will be able to use these skills as they contem- plated the working world. Mr. Dean Ray feels at home among the dril presses.

Vocations 63 Challenge: A Major Element Challenge was a major element in the study of mathematics and sci- ence. The classes that were offered in the science field were general sci- ence, Biology I II, advanced biol- ogy seminar, living chemistry. Chemistry I 11, physics, and eighth grade science. The students who attended these classes dissected animals, mixed chemicals, and viewed slides through a microscope. There were also the projects of collecting leaves and insects, mak- ing models of various elements, do- ing experiments, and preparing the courtyard for a new greenhouse. Observation was a necessary skill in science classes in order to not miss any stage of a plant or animal at growth or any chemical ' s reac- tion. Mathematics, a subject which doesn ' t change in content, required junior high students to learn math fundamentals as they prepared for the higher math courses in high school. Elective high school mathematics courses such as general math. Alge- bra I II, geometry, trigonometry and analytics gave high school stu- dents the background needed for further college study. Both the mathematics and the science courses offered, prepared their students very well for their fu- ture college courses. Ir.

The students taking part in each ar- tistic area, expressed special talents throughout the year. Out of the National Scholastic Judging Contest, 84 were chosen to be sent to New York. Mike Fuelling, Scott Irwin, Lisa Szjana and Micky Osmun were entrants with Szajna receiving the Kodak Medallion of Ex- cellence. Scott Irwin also had three editorial cartoons printed in the News Sentinel. Other art projects completed by students during the year included creating unusual kites, making sun dials, drawing self-portraits and studying the process of batik, pho- tography and silversmithing. The theatre arts class performed for the eighth grade classes, Wood- burn Elementary and the second grade of Leo Elementary. During a class session in make up, students became panda bears, seals, and ba- boons. Other activities included practice session in the art of panto- mime, improvisations, and acting in play cuttings from 16th C. Shake- speare to 20th C. Neil Simon. Music classes taught appreciation of baroque, classical and romantic musical styles and completed the year with a study of 20th C. and pop music. High school students studied music theory on an individual level- attending concerts and reporting about them. The arts is an area of study vital to the progress of society-without art there is no appreciation of beauty. Mrs. Phillips searches for an answer re garding 20th Century music.

The Arts 67 Teamwork: Not Only For Sports Teamwork, a requirement in sports, also became a large factor of many classes. Home economics headed by Mrs. Julia Wilson in the high school, and Mrs. Shirley Deetz in the junior high school, undertook ambitious projects inside and out- side of the classroom. Cooking pro- jects included canning, preserving and bread making with young chefs evidenced an energetic try-try-try again spirit. One creative aspect of cooking included tackling interna- tional quisine and sampling foods from Mexico to Germany. Sewing projects allowed students to creatively produce garments which were also economically prac- tical. Some students even turned their talents into money making pro- jects for teachers or other students. Health classes used teamwork in group discussion. Mr. Bill Bollier en- couraged and coached classes into interesting rap sessions. With America running into the physical fitness scene, the gym classes exercised this fad and built up muscles and coordination while developing friendships as well. Teams sided up to participate in group sports such as basketball, vol- leyball and Softball. Team coopera- tion was necessary for a victory. When the weather t urned warmer, gym classes migrated outside; how- ever, during the time when the weather wasn ' t at its best, the classes intergrated to become the scene of a big square dance. Stu- dents who had never been ex- posed to dancing before, found themselves do-si-do ' ing around the big gym. The members of all of these classes found that the experience of working together was the most valu- able skill learned. After the patterns and sewing machines are put away, sleep seems to be the next thing in mind for Lanell Chaney and Jeanette Quinn. Steve Frecker sets his team up for another point. 68 Health Related Classes Health Related Classes 69 Sports It has been said that farm people get their strength from lifting bales of hay. Whatever t he reason, strength and stam- ina played a large part in the sport ' s seasons. Football, wrestling, basket- ball, track, and cross country were only a few of the sports recognized for excellence. These teams gained recogni- tion through hard work, not only noticed by schools of a much larger population, but also backed by fans of the sur- rounding area. These accomplishments proved once again that the hick school was BREAKING THROUGH to the attention of many. Sports 7 1 Warriors Tackle All But Two The 1980 football season was a challenge met victoriously. The Warriors presented a respectable record — 8 wins 2 losses. The only defeats were against excel- lent teams, Norwell and New Ha- ven. With most of the team being re- turning letterman, the Warriors had the experience. Mike Hetrick led the team in scoring — 9 TD ' s 54 points and came in second in rushing 623 yards. Devin Ander- son also played a major role on offense with 4 TD ' s 24 points and led the team in rushing 667 yards. The backfield was definitely bal- anced. Todd Davis led the team as quarterback. Todd ' s speed played a big role, but the threat to throw the ball always kept the de- fense on edge. Warrior defense was led by line- backer Greg Diehm. Greg led the team in most tackles 95. Jeff Berning was also a major defen- sive player; he contributed 59 tackles. The result in most of the defensive damage was done by our outstanding tackles Jon Ger- ardot and Steve Frecker making the action happen. The Warriors had six men se- lected to the All Conference team. They were Todd Davis, Mike Hetrick, Devin Anderson, Craig Bontrager, Greg Diehm and Steve Frecker. Honorable men- tions went to Scott Thompson and Jeff Berning. The Warriors definitely had a season to be proud of. The crowd and the cheerleaders were a great support to the dedicated men on the field. As the season came to an end respects were paid to those graduating seniors with recognition night at the last home game. In all we will miss them, but as coach Etzler would say, Start counting the days to next year. Scott Thompson gives a vicious hit on the tacklematic during a grueling Warrior practice.

This squad missed the size and speed of past years, but they had the desire to win. J.V. players prepared themselves for next years varsity spots, rec- ognizing the key words to success as being: hustle, hard work, and determination. As Coach Bollier put it, Preparing yourself mentally and physically make putting on the Blue Jersey where its all at.

The season as always in Freshman football, was built around funda- mentals and preparation for for upcoming years. The team ' s strength came from their passing game and teamwork. The exper- ience the men gained was valuable, but as Coach Lehrman put it. The thrill of inter- scholastic competition, success and failure with your teammates, is something you ' ll never forget. The Junior High Football teams also did well. The seventh grade finished with 2 wins and a tie, and the eighth grade had the thrill of victory twice. mgr.. Row 3. Shane Mumma, mgr,.

The handicap of a very young team and not having the summer train- ing to compete against the strong com- petition in this area cost them every meet they ran. Out of only seven runners, sopho- more Neal Lengacher proved the most valuable, and he paced the team all season. Senior Trina Chapman, the team ' s only female runner, proved that women can stand up to the grueling pace as well as the men can.

' Cross Country 77 Setters Spikers Bump Into Trying Season The boys ' Varsity Volleyball team finished fairly well. They ended with an 8-9 record at the end of the season, including tourna- ments. Coach Gay Martin said that one of the team ' s biggest problems was the lack of experience. The guys played some very tough teams such as Harding, Heritage, and Westville, all of which had many returning players as well as returning lettermen. Said Coach Martin, I think that the team worked very well together. Volleyball is more of a team sport than either basketball or football. It ' s more fast moving, and if one person is out of position we could lose one or more points. In basketball or football, however, one man can be slightly out of place and the team can compensate for it fairly easily. Through all of the rough times, the team fared well. Two juniors. Rick Gerig and Todd Wiedemann, were named honorable men- tion on the All Conference team, and the team itself finished fifth in the state.

Volleyball 79 Girls Set Up For Tough Opponents As the net loomed high between them, two teams stood facing to pit their volleyball sl ills against each other. Six starters on a 12-girl squad battled strong odds during the 1980 season. A rebuilding year for the girls volleyball proved evident, as they lost their six senior starters and had only one senior returning among a very young squad. Coach Norma Gilbert led her warrior ladies to a 4-11 re- cord. According to Gilbert, all the girls exhib- ited fairly equal playing skills. As one player stated, I think the whole team would agree, we started out slowly. As the season pro- gressed we learned to work together as a team, and we played much better volley- ball. With a squad of mostly sophomores and juniors, next year ' s season looks very prom- ising with a young yet experienced team.

The Varsi- ty girls had a rather disappointing season, however, with a record of 2 in 6. Kelly Lothamer, their coach, explained, As soon as the girls realized that the only way they were going to win any games was to work together as a team, they all started looking sharp. The 8th grade girls basketball team had many exceptional players. All of them put forth much effort during the season and the tournament. The 7th grade girls gained ex- perience as they learned how to be aggres- sive and learned never to give up. Neither team had a very successful season, but there are high hopes for next year. Playing and competing on teams provided a new learning experience for most of these young girls. They learned about their game and gained respect of their coaches, but most importantly they learned about them- selves. As a player put it, Just one of the things I learned was how to control my tem- per . . . somewhat.

Girls ' Basketball 83 Team work Growth Prove Successful In the past, student spirit during basket- ball season rated about 65 percent involve- ment, but last season surpassed 100 per- cent, in the Blue Pit, the crowd, represent- ing the sixth man on the floor, cheered and gave standing ovations which awed op- ponents. In a family atmosphere, team members supported each other-celebrating victories and accepting defeats. Teamwork consisted of players on the floor and of the potential of the bench. Games consisted mostly of key confer- ence bouts. The first conference win against Leo set the Warriors on the right track in ACAC standings. The next challenge came against top rat- ed Carroll. In a game filled with adrenaline, the pride of the student body emerged as the sixth man on the floor and once again brought the house down with standing room only. The ACAC tourney gave the thrill of being in the final game and the experience of play- ing in the coliseum. The third quarter against the Knights was the downfall to vic- tory lane. The Warriors were out-shot and out-scored, but the sportsmanship kept the boys poised throughout the play. In the sectional play it was a rematch against Harding. The Hawks started off with the fast offensive charge that they were known for. The Warriors worked hard in a defensive surge to keep in the game. The success of Martin ' s Machine came from a theory of 4-7-52-four hours a day, seven days a week, and fifty-two weeks a year. The Junior Varsity squad that pushed the varsity team to its success deserved recog- nition. Although the overall season had its ups and downs, players such as John Hans and Todd Gerbers moved up to varsity po- tential from the playing time they received on the JV level. The lack of key players played a role in the offensive attack while the well-executed de- fense improved throughout the season. The reserve level, often the stepping stone to varsity success, challenged players as they successfully realized their poten- tials.

Basketball 85 Offensive Charge Defensive Man-To-Man — A Winning Connbination The girls basketball team presented a very forward looking season. The experience was there but lacked in a few minor places, such as learning to work together at the start of the season. Once that was accomplished the unity could not be beat anywhere. The season as a whole had its ups and downs, but they pulled it all together for the ACAC tourney. The girls took the first game with little difficulty against Churubusco, which advanced them on to the semi-finals. This game brought out the old Leo-vs-Woodlan rivalry. The tension was high throughout the entire game, but the Leo girls were just too much to handle. The teams overall season record came to 5-13. The girls were close in almost all of the games. In conference play they went three and three. The offensive attack kept the girls in the game at all times. The team difinately had the abily to score. Leading the charge was Anita Huff who put the key points on the board when they were most needed. These points gelled together quickly and kept the team strong throughout the season. The defensive surge was best at the Man- to-Man. With all the hustle and determina- tion it was better expressed as Warrior Pride. The team has projected optimism for next year with the varsity team only loosing one senior. The girls returning will have the ex- perience needed to posses the victory tri- umph. The reserve squad had a trying but learn- ing season. With most of the team being freshman, they laid the foundation for step- ping up to the varsity level. The most out- standing freshman was to be Holly Hirsch. She moved into a starting position on the varsity team in only a few weeks. As the season closed the reserves also began to look to next year with optimism for suc- cesses in the future.

Roundballers on the 7th grade team set the highest season record with 12 wins and 2 losses. Height, talent, and hard-working attitudes carried the team into the final game of the ACAC with an unfortunate shot at the buzzer. The 7th grade Warriors lost to Norwell, 22-20. The 8th grade team showed much im- provement over the season, but also lost the ACAC to Norwell, 28-21, in a close game. With a sigh, they closed the season, 7-7 split. Coached by Charlie Hissong, the fresh- men basketballers paced their record with six wins and four close losses. The overall record for the season was 6-9. Improvement also shined in the freshmen, preparing them for future basketball. Freshmen; (front row) Shelley Cullen; Tonya Ludwig; Cheryl Sadlon; Robin Gaskill; Sarah Miller; cheer- leaders.

Grapplers Wrestle Season ' s Challenges With bodies twisted, arms and legs entan- gled, often was hard to tell who was who during a match. The Warrior grapplers saw their share of ups and downs during their 5-6 season, and many wrestlers accomplished personal goals they set to conquer. Rod Fry acheived the best individual record with a 16-4 finish. Barry Ehle broke through with a 17-6 re- cord, followed by Mark Pusey; 16-6. Dennis DeFreese was next with a 14-7-1, and Chip Rademacher; 13-8-2, and also breaking a school record, with a 20-second pin. Highlighting the season was the Wrestling Invitational. Barry Ehle and Mark Pusey reigned victorious in their own weight classed with Woodlan placing 4th in overall competition. In the ACAC, Warriors walked away with a 3rd place, and Rod Fry was named to All-Conference for placing 1st in the 185 lb. weight class. Personal effort proved that a small school could shine in the face of a tough season.

Rang- ing from the basketball court to the fairway at Pond-0-River, the athletes ran on many types of ground surfaces. As the athletes who initiated the sport season, the football players found muscles which had been dormant for many months. They participated in two practices per day — early morning and late afternoon. Between running for conditioning and run- ning the tires, the team logged over three miles per day. Football was a game of inches and over a complete season those inches turned into miles. Dotting the scenery along the country side, the cross country team began the ar- duous task of building endurance. Initially the training was a surprise of agony to mus- cles grown flaccid over the summer. Soon covering the miles came easily to runners, and the team ultimately put in many mills in just a few months. The self-satisfaction and physical exhiliaration of getting out and run- ning every day was what attracted runners to the cross country team. As the winter season opened, the basket- ball and volleyball teams hit the courts. The familar sound of basketballs echoing with every bounce and the loud booms from vi- cious volleyball spikes struck the courts once again. The basketball family covered much ground with constant jumping and running down the courts for a fast break. The setters and spikers took much wear and tear from charging the net and leaping great heights to block that spike. Adding to the variety of athletics offered each year two groups used a different sur- face-the mats of gymnastics and wrestling. Gymnasts ran and leaped across the mats as they learned grace and agility in perform- ing routines and exercises. Meanwhile all the young grapplers jogged for approximately 15 minutes each night before they hit the mats to improve their wrestling skills and techniques. As the weather warmed and signs of spring approached, baseball, golf, and track squads went into training. Starting in Febru- ary baseball players began conditioning in the gymnasim. Pitchers ran at least two miles per day in early training to assure themselves of strong legs. During games, batters were required to sprint around bases; therefore, they needed to be in top running conditioning also. Chip shot, divits, and sliced balls were ad- jectives used by the golf team. The 18 holes of golf courses required golfers to walk three miles per meet. Hampered by very rainy and wet courses, this activity proved to be chal- lenging. The season demanded dedication and self-discipline, golfers had to shoot their best scores to help the team in final stand- ings. The men and women track teams were comprised of sprinters, milers, long jumpers and field positions. Fighting blisters and shin splints, the teams ran three to five miles daily in preparation for their first meets. With a goal of qualifying for sectionals and regionals, sprinters and long jumpers tore up the asphalt with their spikes and blazing speed. The ususally warm sun was replaced by the cold and rain. Meets and games for the spring sports were cancelled and postponed all through the season. As the school year ended, the athletic fields and arenas were left barren and emp- ty, and the groans, moans, and cheers of the fans were left to echoing chambers of silence. 92 Sports Feature Waiting for the opportunity to break out to the lead, runners pace themselves.

Sports Feature 93 Gymnastics: More Than Just Routine Gaining control of muscles and coordinat- ing this with graceful tactics, confidence eminated from the lady warriors ' gymnastic meets. The girls displayed fantastic talent and co- ordination on the mats, vault, uneven paral- lel bars, and the beam. Muscle control and coordination was not enough for a success- ful performance. The long, trying practices and self discipline provided background for mental concentration and a fine showing at the meets. Because the team was too small to com- pete on a team basis, team members en- tered events on an individual level. It was a building year for the varsity team. However, in the junior high a new team was built. The junior high members did very well and won all but one of their meets. Monica Zelt showed leadership in directing the junior high team to their victories. Meanwhile the varsity team operated very well. Several gymnasts walked away with the blue ribbons during the season. Becky Brit- tingham was named the most valuable play- er. As the mats were folded up and pushed into storage, and the beam and uneven par- allel bars were set aside, confidence was gained as the most important factor of the meets. Balance is a challenge met with triumph by Heidi Wietfeldt on the uneven bars.

Twenty girls in cold gray sweats, Circle the track that ' s slick and wet, The high bar rattles, the discus spins. The sprinters test their battered shins.

Sprinters and hurdlers couldn ' t wait to be outside. Adorned in their favorite Nike and Adidas running shoes, sweat socks and warm-up suits, members of the track team prepared to run the best season possi- ble. Comprised of many returning lettermen, the boys ' track team looked forward to a full season ahead of them. Overcoming more obstacles than just hurdles and bad weath- er, the boys conquered sore muscles and shin splints to set new school records and accumulated many ribbons. Todd Davis and Devin Anderson ran over the old records and established new and more concise times with Todd Davis slashing the old 100m ' . dash record of 11.2 to 11.1. In the 400m. relay, the Warrior four; Todd Davis, Devin Anderson, Ron Kashner, and Keith De- legrange broke yet another record making the new time 45.2. Finishing fourth in the conference was also an accomplishment the team was proud of. The thrill of accomplishment applied to the runners as they passed the finish line in great strides. Rounding the final corner alone, Devin Anderson had ■ ' run ahead of all his competition.

The boys ended up with second place in the A.C.A.C. tourney. The junior high deserved first place for their first place effort, stated Richhart.

Expressions such as Hey batter, Fore and Where did the ! ball go? rang through the spring air. Baseball games and golf matches battled the elements some- times losing out to the rain. When the sun did manage to peek through the clouds, the games were played without fail. In the field of baseball, Barry Ehle and Mark Anderson ran away with the highest batting averages. During the course of the golf matches, Doug Bowers often snatched the title of medalist, having the lowest score. Both baseball and golf teams showed im- mense talent and depth. The baseball team was a young team and showed great prom- ise for the future despite the slow start at the beginning of the season. The golf team was young, but, without a doubt, it was one of the best ever in the history of the school. Regardless of their records, both the baseball and golf teams broke through with a vast amount of athletic spirit. The performance by the spring teams reflected the skill and attitudes which was way above par, or rather below par in golf terms. with a mighty swing, Mark Hoeppner tees off for an- other hole-in-one.

Many people didn ' t realize that being a cheerleader required more than just having a loud voice, pep, and gymnastic ability. The job also required dedication, creativity, and leadership abilities. These skills paid off for the Varsity squads who received awards at summer camp and contests at Glenbrook Mall, placing second and third, and Southtown Mall, placing third and fourth. These awards and the many dedicated hours spent in prepara- tion refuted the misconception that cheerleading was more than just leading cheers.

Cheerleading 105 -% at People Walls, ceilings, rooms, desks, and blackboards were not the only things that made up the foundation of the school, but also the people who populated it. This population, consisting of many differing personalities and lifestyles, servived through the joys of sports ' events, par- ties, ten o ' clock break, and friends and also the agonies of tests, caferteria lunches, and late passes. Nervous seventh graders be- gan the year, as they searched for classes and learned a differ- ent format from that of ele- mentary school. Eighth grad- ers used valuable time search- ing for insects and baring trees, while freshmen looked toward responsibilities of high school. Sophomores received drivers ' licenses and dreamed of Trans Am ' s and Z 28 ' s while Juniors were also dream- ing but of graduation only one year away. Seniors were not unusual as thoughts of college or facing the real world be- gan. Many students experienced these typical events in high school life but individual situa- tions were also taking place. People of the hick school showed larger schools that tal- ent and skill did not have to go with a large community. Teamwork and Sportsman- ship along with a great deal of pride gave the school and its students a break through to remember. Peopie 107 pp ATI |r)p First date n€t vliat ■ - ■ - it«$ made cut tc be When Barbie dolls are wrapped in tissue paper, and toy trucks are stuffed into attic boxes, children begin growing up into blemishes, Noxzema, rock and roll, high school and first dates. Adolescents encounter various unique exper- iences on the first date. Initiation into dating the opposite sex often proves to be an exciting, yet nerve racking event. Examples of a first date can be as casual as going to a movie and McDonalds or as formal as an invitation to the prom. In either case, the first date is nervous. Girls spend hours choosing a zingy outfit so as to make a spectacular first impression. Amid the aroma of perfume and the bustle of preparation, females experience nervousness and butterflies as they wait for the date to arrive. On the other hand, boys tend to have sweaty palms about the situation. Instead of worrying so much about out- ward appearances, males worry more about where the date would like to go and, more importantly, how much it ' ll cost. Complications of the first date syndrome occur as soon as the date arrives to pick up the girl. The boy ' s nerves are taut as he confronts the girl ' s parents for the first time. There is always that remote possibility of parental disapproval. Another awkward moment occurs when the couple realizes that she has dressed up for the date, and he has merely worn jeans. Just for a moment, let ' s imagine that perfect first date through the eyes of the individuals. As the light turned green and the car sputtered and started to roll, the first-daters sat in utter si- lence as they drove through town. The tension in- creased as the lack of conversation hung heavily in the air. Trying to improve the silence, the girl at- tempted to brighten up the conversation with a scin- tillating comment about the weather, stumbling over the words and sticking her foot in her mouth. The boy, feeling equally uneasy, asked if she would like to catch the latest movie and a Big Mac afterward. By the time the movie started, the pop- corn was long gone; awkward feelings once again arose as each of them wondered what the other was thinking. Should they move closer? Should they hold hands? These and other thoughts of first-date problems flooded their minds. As a result of a hard day at school, the girl felt sleepy, and halfway through the movie she closed Trotting through the hall to get there on time, Alicia Waiko es- corts Troy Gerig to his class. her eyes for a minute. The next thing she knew the movie was over, and her date was shaking her awake as the rest of the theatre filed out. Deeply embarrassed, she apologized for falling asleep. To cover her embarrassment, she quickly asked her date if he ' d like to grab a Big Mac. At MacDonald ' s the couple felt uneasy as they thought the other was watching every move they made. The boy reached over to snatch the salt shaker for his fries, spilling his root beer in the process. Breaking into laughter over the mess, the girl giggled, There, now we ' re equal. After this ice breaker the first-daters felt a little more at ease with each other on the way home; they were now able to talk like old friends. When they arrived in the girl ' s driveway, she invited him into the house. Remembering the parent ' s conge- niality, he thought this was a good idea. As soon as he stepped out of his car, the girl ' s monster of an animal, commonly called a dog, lapped at the boy almost knocking him over. Attempting to maintain his macho image, he suppressed a scream as he ran into the house. Again the girl laughed as she ap- proached her door, calmly petting her docile pooch. When a favorite TV show, Saturday Night Live began, the boy hinted, Wouldn ' t the atmosphere be a little better if I hit the lights? . Good idea, replied the girl. The boy, not trying to be a comedi- an, indeed, hit the lights. Diving to retrieve the lamp, the girl caught it and smiled broadly. You have one over me now, she laughed. After the show was over, the boy had to leave. Both first-daters wondered, Will I get that good- night kiss? Suddenly the boy reached over and shyly kissed his date, slammed the door, and ran to his car. In a daze, the girl sat on her couch trying to remember all of the feelings which had been ignited during the course of the evening. The awkwardness had been worth it when she realized he had been as nervous as she. For everything there is a time and a season, and fortunately the awkwardness of the first date recedes to a thing of the past as once did Barbie dolls and toy trucks. 108 Feature Anticipating the prom.

Feature 109 Seniors Break Out Into Real World In the age of the energy short- ages, ever-increasing inflation, un- employment, and the draft registra- tion, seniors broke through barriers making their lives the best they could be. Temporarily leaving their everyday problems behind, they en- joyed themselves during the sports games, homecoming week and oth- er extra-curricular activiites. The ultimate year had arrived, and many things made it worth the wait. The basketball team played in the A.C.A.C. championship game; seniors participated in not only sports but in swing choir, THE CRU- CIBLE, PIPPIN, F.F.A. and F.H.A. They received national awards such as scholarships, and many were honored in WHO ' S WHO AMONG AMERICAN HIGH SCHOOL STU- DENTS. Seniors had the opportunity to learn what it is really like to apply for college and experience gov- ernment. The Class of ' 81 survived the senioritis that hit many at the se- mester. Even though they looked forward to graduation, the Class of ' 81 wondered how they would han- dle the real world. JEFFREY C. AKERS MARK W.

Composed of sixty-five hope- fuls, Wandering Wheels, a Christian organization, be- gan its 21st coast to coast bike tour. Confidence paved the road which the riders hoped to cover in the 2800-mile trip. With their wheels in the Pacif- ic at San Diego, the group was determined to place their front wheels in the Atlantic one month later. During their trip, the group had to deal with the heat of the desert, the mountains, and the food poisoning which struck all but seven of the riders. Kyle fell into this group. Despite obstacles, Wandering Wheels, finished their trip as they arrived in Jacksonville, Florida at the Atlantic Ocean. As the sun set and others put away suntan lotion and hung beach towels out to dry, Kyle set his bike to rest. Memories remained vivid, as daydreams reign in anticipa- tion of next year ' s trip.

Be- coming a sophomore entitled one to order a class ring (one ' s own cre- ation) and possibly to earn a letter jacket. One month after they turned the magic age of 16, they also be- came maniacs of the driving world. Boring did not describe the class of 1983. The traditional boredom was still around, but on the inside, these students matured and pre- pared themselves for the future.

Freshmen faced new responsibil- ities, and the 10:00 break offered a new reward allowing them to relax. New faces appeared on the scene, as parochial kids invaded and al- lowed students to make new friend- ships and renew old ones. The class of 84 proved the mid- dle of the book can be as interesting as the first and last.

While in the hustle and bus- tle of insect collecting and learning the Gettysburg Address, there was the anticipation of the 9th Grade. There were also thoughts of new classes — How hard would they be? What would the teachers be like? How much homework? The 8th grade students looked forward to the year ending and starting over again in the 9th grade with its fun times, new friends, and the joy of finally being in high school.

We even had problems finding time to goof off. With no recesses anymore and a noon that flew by so quickly that there was very little free time, the days flew by until we sud- denly found ourselves 8th graders before we ' d become used to the 7th grade. On their spare time Judy Webster and Becky Cook practice for an approaching concert. Seventh Grade 139 Diversities Complement Styles Amid the early morning yawns, teachers gathered in the lounge to wake up over a cup of coffee or a coke. Some teachers said little, others rehashed the game of the night before, and still others gig- gled over editorial cartoons. United by common denomina- tors of roll call, books, lesson plans, reports, projects, meet- ings, papers, grades, and unique students, the teachers exhibited diversities which complemented one another. As diverse in teach- ing styles as in personalities, teachers handled their individual areas of expertise with enthusi- asm and creativity. The enthusiasm and creativity of the teachers was possible only because of their love of teaching young people and respect for a profession which demands as much as it rewards.

Just as ingredients in a recipie and puzzle pieces contribute to the whole, the administration contributed to the entire perspec- tive of the school community. The administration was responsible for maintaining smooth school management — from juggling schedules of students to seeing that the physical plant ran smoothly. Management positions dele- gate responsibility and authority. As in the past the maintenance crew, cafeteria workers and teachers were responsible for the management of specific areas. Heeding the cry from the student body for more involvement in school affairs, the administration allocated more duties and re- sponsibilities to the student gov- ernment. Success of this experi- ment produced positive feed- back. As success breeds success, the administration felt the atmo- sphere of the school changed from one of why bother to one of let ' s see if we can solve the problem as students and teach- ers sought to create a positive learning environment. Administrative personnel worked long hours, sometimes odd hours, in an effort to help the school atmosphere grow toward creating one in which learning could be fun. school Board Members: Front row: o ert Beerbower Merle Ger, d row: Mary Barksdale, David Hockemeyer, David Sharp.

Administration 145 Ads Supporting a yearbook be- came the main concern for the staff throughout the fall and winter months. Selling ads to community businesses proved to be enlightening as well as of- ten disheartening. Area propietors became the sole income of the yearbook and supported many new sec- tions such as color pages, spot color, and experiments in fea- ture stories. Although inflation played a large part in ad sales, local businesses were appreci- ated for support and encour- agement not only during the campaign but also throughout the entire year.

From the traditional lemonade stand-5it per cup. Martin has devel- oped the concept into a lucrative sum- mer business. The Martin Lemonade Shake Up (a lemon, ice water, sugar and ice cube concoction) cooled the thousands of carnival goers over a three-state cir- cuit where Martin and his family played nine carnivals. The operation was a family affair with Martin ' s wife and four children supplying the man power. In addition to quenching the thirst of fair goers, Martin provided merry-go- round and ferns wheel rides as well as a team of ponies for pony rides. The ponies ' names and personalities suited each of them individually. The most un- usual name was Mail Carrier, and the most active ponies were Rusty and Dusty who did a team act with a cov- ered wagon. Index 171 Courtyard A Bloom For the second year, Don Myers continued to turn dirt and seeds into lush green plants in the courtyard where he spent many hours enhancing the landscaping in order to see the courtyard used-not just looked at through windows. to that end he planted a large variety of flowering plants and trees, such as sunflowers, marigolds, cannas, redbud, dog- wood, and fruit trees. Myers ' efforts created a profusion of color which aggreeably improved the view. Anticipating the completion of the planned greenhouse, Myers, said, It ' s been a long time getting here; I ' m really excited about having it to use. He plans to grow plans to sell-the proceeds to go toward mainten- ance of the greenhouse. Since plants live and respond to electrical stimuli, Myers has always felt that plants must be treated like you ' d like to be treated yourself. One of his favorite plants-the Crown of Thorns-has an historical background. The Crown of Thorns, which was used to make Christ ' s head crown, originally bore white blooms; since the crucifixion, it has bloomed in red. Although Myers has easily evidenced his green thumb talents, he rec- ommends the Jade Plant to novice growers- you ' d have to really work hard to kill it. 118 Herman. Robert 50. 141 Hermann.

Moments of success in sports and academics and memories of classes, friends, and special exper- iences were all tucked away in drawers to be enjoyed at a later date. Size of school, never be- came a factor when stu- dents recalled winning var- ious sports ' awards, produc- ing and presenting difficult dramatic and musical shows, and having cheer- leaders who raised the spirit of spectators to the point of award winning recognition and raised an attitude of winner in the players. Size never mattered to the students of the hick school; it only made the ac- complishments more im- pressive to those of a larger population. .74 Theme t£ ' .0 « - «ifc '  ' ' ' .-• ' ■■• • ' -M Theme 175 The hick school was finally BREAKING THROUGH! 176 Theme x
