I am not afraid of the future; I have the rest of my life I Destiny is not to be waited for; it is to be achieved. It is not the quantity of life that we live, it is the quality. In a quality life, a person participates, loves, learns, and shares. Anyone can have a long live, but only a special person can have a quality life.

Dr. Harrington, principal, handles the financial situation along with the overall outlook for the future. Dr. Harrington feels that the lack of money is apparent to the students and that graduates are t more serious about planning for a future because of this lack of money. Student interest in grades has increased and the administ- ration attributes this partly to the new attendance policy. Mr. Stine is the man who makes sure things run smoothly day by day. One of his greatest concerns is student attendance. Another job Mr. Stine does, is to schedule, monitor and evaluate detention. All in all, these men take the time and the responsibility to make things work for the improvement of our school.

One new advanced woodworking course and one new advanced machine tools course are being added. Mr. Cook, Mr. Humphreys and Mr. Marcetti are teaching Industrial Arts this year. They hope that by the end of the year, every student is able to demonstrate his or her mastery of each basic skill, at their own rate of development. The Art II and Art III students are in combined classes this year. Mr. Rod Dewey, our art teacher, teaches Art I, II, III and also photo- graphy classes. Before Mr. Dewey grades his students, he talks with each to determine what they feel their grade should be. Mr. Dewey grades his students on their finished product and also the amount of time spent on the pro- ject. Top: Jeff Campbell does some last minute measuring for the bookshelf he is constructing.

Some of the sports played in physical education classes are: basketball, floor hockey, soccer, track and skeet shooting. This year new equipment has been added in the scooter hockey and health units. Health is one unit offered in the Physical Education de- partment. Alcohol, drugs, and nutrition are some of the topics covered. Guest speakers are also brought in to in- struct the class. This year ' s teachers are: Mr. Darin, Mr. Egan and Ms. Goodall. New this year, to the department, is Mr. Nagy. With all of the new equipment and the variety of classes offered, P.E. can be fun and educational. Top: Mr. Darin gives directions to students in skeet shooting class. Above: Gerry Krenke has mastered the sport of skeet shooting; he is participating in the final competition. Above Right: Ms. Goodall is horrified to see the new scooter hockey equipment getting its first use. Solid Foundation This year the math department objectives include aiding the students in the development of logical and orderly thinking, pre- senting students with fundamental mathematical ideas and con- cepts useful in daily living, preparing students with fundamental understanding of high school mathematics and to enable students to study higher mathematics in college. General Math, Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, Trigonometry and Consumer ' s Math are all offered to help students reach the goals. Logical and orderly thinking is taught in Geometry and Advanced Topics. In these classes, students make hypotheses and use deduc- tive logic. Students think for themselves and learn fundamental principles. Useful, daily math skills are an important part of Consumer ' s Math. In this class, students learn unit pricing, correct completion for income tax forms, and comparative shopping. Useful, daily math skills are an important part of Consumer ' s Math. In this class, students learn unit pricing, correct completion for income tax forms, and comparative shopping. With the combined efforts of Mrs. Hedge, Mr. Hunt, Mr. Rathje and Mrs. Silverthorn, students gain better mathematical under- standing. This year the Math Department has a new computer, a TRS-80, model III. This computer will be used for self-paced computer programming instruction. Students will greatly benefit from the computer. With the teachers and resources available, Yale High School students will have the necessary mathematical foundation. Science: New Outlook The Science Department at Yale High has a new outlook. They not only have a new teacher, Mr. Egan, they also have new text books for Biology I and a class called Advanced Topic in Physi- cal Science. The science teachers this year include: Mr. Dams, Mr. Egan, Mr. Hunt, Mr. Johnson, Mr. Little, and Mr. Smith. Each of these teachers ' goal was to acquaint the students with varied forms of the natural world. The teachers this year were very pleased with the classes and hope next year will be as good as this year. 24 New Dimensions This year the Social Science Department has added sev- eral new dimensions. Miss Allam, Miss Bromberger and Mr. Nofs have added Social Science classes to their regular schedules. World Geography, American History, Government, Economics and Citizenship are some of the offered courses. One new class, Sociology, has been added. The department has received new American History texts, Economics texts and World Geography texts. The new books are more up to date and contain relevant in- formation. With the addition of teachers, books and a course, the Social Science Department has new dimensions. Above Left: Mr. Presnell pauses fora moment during his American History skits. Far Left: Mr. Robinson ' s class teams about the three branches of government. Hear Left: Mr. Nagy proudly states, During the second semester, I ' ll show you my infamous Viet Nam slides. Below Left: Made a mistake? Correctotype is the answer. Practical Education Business classes help prepare stu- dents for the future by offering classes that may lead to successful jobs. The classes that are being offered are: Shorthand, Typing I, Typing II, and Of- fice Practices. Typing II, Office Machines and Office Practices are being taught on an indi- vidual manner. This is for the students ' benefit, so they can learn at their own speed. The Business Department has re- quested a few new typewriters for the years to come. Hopefully the students that take these classes will benefit and take care of them. 25 Job Experience Gained The St. Clair County Skill Center is equivalent to on the job training, which is a great asset in the working world. The Skill Center offers many programs for students including business, nursing, welding and small engine repair. At the Skill Center, the students work at their own pace, which the students like. While at the Skill Center, students work at their own pace to reach ultimate job performance. After reaching this level, stu- dents participate in a job placement program. After high school, those students then can enter into their profession with little, if any, transition difficulties facing non- skill center students.

They do this through hard work and practice. They are taught Spanish like we were taught English. But they also h ve a lot of fun learning about Mexico and Spain by film strips, movies and Ms. Sworthwood ' s slides of other class trips to Mexico. Ms. Sworthwood also makes different kinds of fam- ous Spanish dishes which the students get to taste. Spanish is a fun and interesting language to learn. It may also help you in the future. Variety Offered The goals of the English Department are to expose students to a variety of areas in English. There are many different English classes offered this year. The variety includes: American Literature, which is about famous American writers; Humanities, a new class about fine arts; Jour- nalism, which puts out our newspaper and yearbook; Senior College English, which covers proper grammar and Reading Techniques, which helps one read faster and better. These goals of the English Department are reached through working hard and participat- ing in class. Top Right: Spanish teacher , Miss Sworthwood uses the language lab to instruct Spanish I students.

Under the direction of Miss Shafer, the band always plays during half time at the home football games. The band also puts on a Christmas concert and a Spring Concert. They also play at graduation and in the Memorial Day parade. The band has worked hard this year and the improvement is greatly noticed. A ' Cappella Choir Dazzles Crowd The Yale A ' Cappella Choir is a talented group of students under the direction of Mrs. Sopha. The choir performs a Christmas con- cert each year. This year ' s concert in- cluded traditional carols and religious songs. At their Spring concert, the A ' Cap- pella Choir performed lively music featuring solos and ensembles. Another Choir-sponsored activity is the annual Talent Show. This gives all students the opportunity to de- monstrate their talent. With the assistance of Mrs. Sopha and their own talent and determination, the Yale A ' Cappella Choir is worth seeing. Top: 1981-82 Yale High School Band. Above: Yale Cappella Choir.

Friendly Secretaries Serve YHS ' s Needs When a person thinks of a secretary, he thinks of someone who types, takes dictation and sets up ap- pointments for the employer, but the average secret- ary at YHS does all this and much more. Mrs. McMurtrie works in the counselor ' s and assis- tant principal ' s office. She must schedule appoint- ments for students with their counselors, help with the grade keeping and mails out the progress reports. In the main office, Mrs. Edgerton and Mrs. Halsey take care of things like answering the phone handing out working papers, locker distribution and schedul- ing appointments. Both women deal with the money exchanges between the clubs and organizations and take inventory at the end of each school year. YHS ' s student body owes their secretaries a big thank-you for helping keep our school running smoothly. Top: Betty and Rose count and record the profits made at the last dance.

Home Makers The Home Economics department is used to prepare students to be good consumers and to prepare them for their life roles. The Home Ec. teachers Miss Carpenter, Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Wilier think that every year their department gets better because no matter what occupation or direction students go into the skills ' taught in Home Economics classes. This year there is a Home Economics class being offered to the Freshmen. The Home Ec. Depart- ment also has a new food processor this year. Top Right: Miss Carpenter. Lower Right: Mrs. Taylor. Above: Mrs. Wilier. Counselors Aid Students With a ratio of more than 330 students to one, counselor time can get a little short during one week. The counselors have more responsibilities than seeing just the students. Mr. Coetze and Mr. Little must organize skill center schedules, testing programs, make sure seniors are given the opportunity for many different scholarships. Both counselors, in addition to these duties, have the responsi- bility of seeing students several times a year and making sure their files are in order. Left to right: Mr. Catanese , Mr. Goetze, Mr. Little. 30 Puppeteers Perform There is a group at Yale High School that has nothing to do with sports or any school activity. The group of student volunteers put on a play to make people aware of the handicapped. They accomplished this through the understanding and the acceptance of all persons with a hand- icap. Mr. Frank Johnson and the puppeteers put on this play at the Yale Elementary. They took this play to Capac where students really enjoyed it. The handicaps covered in this play are: Cerebral Palsy, Retardation, Deafness, Blindness, and Learning Disability. This play was to help people to understand others with a handicap; for they have a special gift.

The float competition for the 1981 Homecom- ing was very fierce. Judges, Miss Diane Allam, Mr. Albert Kimmel and Miss Kathy Olson, choose the Juniors ' float for first place, with its theme, “Snoopy ' The imaginative, well- constructed float consisted of a dog house, airplane, horse and raider. The Seniors won second place with their car- toon theme, “Big Bird. The float showed Big Bird laying an egg and hatching a Bulldog vic- tory. The float ' s rotating panels were destroyed in a pre-parade accident, but the class of ' 82 ' s creativity and hard work could be seen. The Sophomores were awarded third place for the float “Spike from the Tom and Jerry Show. The float consisted of Spike attacking the Almont Raider cat. Fourth place went to the Freshman class for their float “Tom and Jerry. The freshmen float included a Bulldog, Tom and Jerry and a score board. Each class had two weeks to complete their float before judging. All classes worked hard and long to enter award winning floats. Top: The class of ' 82 ' s entry of Big Bird earned second place.

Thisyear ' s court consisted of two freshmen representatives, two sophomore representatives, four junior representatives and six senior representatives. This year ' s king and queen are Todd Kaatz and Laurie Hayes. A new tradition was started this year in the Kaatz family. Twenty five years ago, Todd Kaatz ' s mom was Yale ' s Homecoming queen. Another tradition kept this year was when voting representatives were chosen by their class. King and queen were chosen by the whole student body. The 1981-82 Homecoming Court, was traditional like always, with a new tradition added. Back Row: Kent Porter , Todd McCallum, Todd Kaatz , Walt Cowhy, Jim White , Carl Rumsey, Larry Cowhy.

The two teams were the Sophomore-Junior and the Senior- Freshmen. Mr. Al Nagy and Mr. John Presnell exchanged their coaching brillance to bring the game to a 7-7 tie. The grueling game could not dampen the spirits of the teams. As time ran out, the score remained 7-7. Yes, another Powder Puff tie. 37 New Drill Team The 1981-82 Pom Pon Squad has had a very successful first season. Under the direction of Ms. Sally Stiles, the 13 girls have performed at home basketball games. Be- fore they could perform, practice, hard work and fund raisers had to occur. Practice for the squad meant staying after school to choreograph new routines and then practicing the routines. Although the work is difficult, the Pom Pon Squad gave their all, and perfected routines. To help cover the cost of their new uniforms, the squad sold pens and had a Sexy Legs contest. With several underclassmen on the squad, next year ' s Pom Pon Squad will have valuable experience. Right: The 1981-82 Pom Pon Squad entertains a spell-bound bas- ketball crowd.

Twirling Up a Storm The 1981-82 Yale Majorettes have worked hard practicing and twirling their batons for performance at parades and pep assemblies. The majorettes meet after school to develop and create their routines and then begin practice. Several hours of drilling, changing and perfecting go into a routine before it is performed for the student body. The girls who have put in all this time and effort include: Sue Bowen, Jackie Chandler, Linda Criger, Sue Gorski, Diane Kettlewell, Lisa Kettlewell and Lynda Osier. In addition to their work performing, the majorettes have had fund raisers, which include bake sales and selling cheese and crackers. Although there is a great deal of work involved in being a majorette, the satisfaction of a successful routine make the work worthwhile.

The office assistants have many jobs, including: greeting people who come into the office, running errands and answering the telephone. Students working in the office earn one half of a credit each semester for their efforts. With- out the assistance of these office assistants, the school would not run as well. Front: Lisa Kean , Michele Capanda, Teresa Sutphen, Barb Burns , Therese Kean, Mary Hyde, Anne Quain, Cindy Charney, Nancy Normandin. Back: Mark De Mar, Brian Priehs, Tim Brackenbury. Attendance Aides The attendance office aides perform many duties for our school, including: picking up at- tendance slips, recording absences, and filling and handing out detention notices. Attendance office assistants also run errands for Mrs. McMurtrie and Mr. Stine. Attendance office assistants are rewarded with one half credit each semester. The assis- tants ' assistance is appreciated. Front: Linda Criger, Theresa Nuss , Denise Pattenaude. Back: Tammy Mankey, Laura Witalec, Kim Tuschling, Theresa Clark, Jackie Russell , Kristy Joslin, Nancy Davidson. 40 Library Runs Smooth The Library Aids are a great help to Mrs.Vesper and the student body. The assistants check books in and out, catalog materials and help keep the library neat and clean. Students check out more than 150 library materials each week, which keeps the library assistants quite busy With so many books being checked out, library assistants must also check materials back in and shelve them properly. When they aren ' t busy with books and supplies, the stu- dent assistants can be seen dusting and straightening the library. All of their effort makes the YHS library a well-run facility. Cadet Teachers Assist This year ' s cadet teachers are a busy group. Correcting tests, running ditto masters, typing and recording grades are just a few of their several duties. With the services cadet teachers provide, classroom teachers have more time to spend with students. Mrs. Taylor stated, I enjoy my cadet teachers; their help is greatly welcomed. The amount of work I take home depends on whether I have cadet teachers. For all of their hard work, cadet teachers earn only a half credit per semester.

The job required a lot of work and determination. At the beginning of the year, the staff was divided into six groups to work on different sections of the yearbook. Ms. Kathy Olson, adviser, selected people who would fit the necessary qualifica- tions to be able to help organize the groups. Steve Davis and Jackie Click were chosen editors-in-chief. Their job was to organize division pages, look over body copy and layouts for mistakes. Student Life is a very important part of the yearbook. This section covers clubs, organizations, teachers and office aids. They also write body copy and layouts. The Sports section covers all Yale High School athletics. The Underclassmen section covers the classes of 83, 84 and 85 pictures. The Senior Section covers making sure senior pictures have been taken and placed on a layout, and also covers the senior index. The major section of the yearbook is the business section who helped com- plete the payment of the yearbook and make it cheaper for you.

Promoting continuous growth in programs fostering horsemanship education, sponsoring activities to encour- age interscholastic participation and deriving enjoyment and benefits as a result of participation are the goals of the 1981 Yale Horsemanship team. The Horsemanship team is able to reach these goals through competition with other schools There are a total of 14 teams (schools) in District II, Division B. This year, Yale finished in fifth place with 102 points. The nearest com- petitor had twenty fewer points. This year ' s team features two veteran riders along with two freshmen. Each of the riders has her own horse and must constantly work with it to perfect courses. All four team members have been riding for years, which enables the team to do well. Yale not only finished in the top five of the district, the riders also had an opportunity to work together, experi- ence good leadership, fair play, horsemanship, a sense of honesty, character, pride and good sportsmanship. Through teamwork, pride and dedication, members of the Yale Horsemanship team represent Yale well. 47 Spanish Club The 1981-1982 Spanish club worked hard to raise money for their organization.

The team ' s goals were to play every one, and to improve the defense and press. They met their goals since almost all the girls started at least one game. The team improved their defense and the press helped them win several games. The team worked well together, when there was a problem they talked it over and it was taken care of. The goals for next year ' s team are to work more on free throws, rebounds, and to improve their record to over, 5 00 . Coach George Champion enjoyed his first year coaching Girls J.V. Basketball.

The cheerleaders improved their appearance with new uniforms, furnished by the sports fund. The cheerleaders have had many money mak- ing projects, including selling balloons and stuf- fed animals. With the money made, they plan to help repay the school for the emblems on their uniforms and put the rest toward cheerleading camp for next summer. This year was Ms. T rudy Brown ' s first to coach Varsity Cheerleading. She feels the girls were an exceptional group who did a great job. Ms. Brown feels the most outstanding cheerleader is Kathy Reid, who has been cheering for six years. According to Ms. Brown, the most improved is Sherri Beschoner, who is in her first year of cheering. All in all the girls looked great and did a super job.

They were enthusias- tic and hard working. This year they sold stuffed animals so they could buy new uniforms for next season. The Freshman Cheerleaders showed spirit and pride throughout the season. They im- proved greatly and showed a promising future for Yale cheerleading. Cagers Break .500 The Girls Varsity Basketball team had a successful year with 11 wins and nine losses. The goals this year were to be competitive in the league and to win more games than last year. They met these goals, finishing near the top of the league. They won two more games than last year. The Bulldogs had a well-balanced attack, with four players averaging seven points a game or more. The girls know how to win close games and had the instinct to put games out of reach of other teams. These were two of the reasons the Girls Basketball team was one of the top 12 teams in the Blue Water Area. Their goals for next year are to improve faster and go farther next year. Coach Joe Nofs likes the satisfaction of watching the improvement of the team, and the athletes. He also likes the well-deserved recognition of girls ' sports. Above: Karee Rock goes for two.

They cheered their hearts out. They passed on a certain fever, and really sparked the excitement. 69 Spirit Showers The Varsity Cheerleaders had a very fine and busy season. They had a very hard job keeping the players happy and the spectators entertained. They did this by writing pep notes and by putting in new routines and cheers. They also put on a few pep assemblies to try and involve the student body. The girls on the team were very spirited and fun to watch. They were very vocal, showing their emo- tions in the close, exciting games. Front Row: Janiece French. Second Row: Kim Bently, Lisa Kean , Tammy Wellman , Kathy Reid, Nancy Donnellon.

In three months, that group turned into an im- proved 1981-82 Junior Varsity Volleyball team. The improvement in the team is caused by several factors. One, is the work of Coach Tom King. During the season, King used every motivational tool possible to develop the team. Dur- ing games, Coach King encouraged the girls to play well and to enjoy them- selves. Another factor which helped in im- proving, was more playing time for each team member. The greater the oppor- tunity to practice and play, the greater their improvement. The team ended their season with a respectable six wins, seven losses re- cord. With continual good coaching, grea- ter practice and playing time, the mem- bers of the 1981-82 Junior Varsity Vol- leyball team will be assets to Yale athle- tics. 1981-82 Junior Varsity Volleyball Team.

Wrestling The 1981-82 Junior Varsity Wrestling team has a good year. The team ' s goal was to groom young, inexperienced wrestlers to fill Varsity spots. Due to the lack of Varsity wrestlers, would be J.V. wrestlers had to be moved up to face tough Varsity competition. The team worked well together, once it got down to the dedicated, serious wrestlers. A wrestling family-type atmosphere was estab- lished. Coach Mark Humphreys en- joyed coaching very much. Last summer, Coach Humphreys travelled to Virginia to the Gramby Clinic and learned new ideas. This year he used some of these ideas and progress the team made was enough reward. The major goal for next year is to develop a strong feeder program for the Varsity team. 75 Mat Men Move The 1981 Varsity Wrestling team had a respectable season with a dual-meet record of 8 wins and 3 losses. The team ' s goals for this year were to improve the quality of re- turning wrestlers and develop new wrestlers from 98 pounds to the heavyweight. This year ' s goals were met with a good amount of success. This year ' s team had three reg- ional qualifiers: Paul McClelland, Ken Peltier and Chris Vore. McClel- land also qualified for the State Meet. Next year ' s goals are to have a strong lineup throughout the weight classes, win some tourna- ment championships and have more state qualifiers and a state champion.

The teams triumphed over their opponents on many occasions to finish the season with 11 wins and three losses for the boys and 10 wins and four losses for the girls. Three records were broken by Rick Walgrave in the high jump, Larry Clark in the pole vault and Pete Kavanaugh in the discus. The girls also had some record breaking performances by Julie Stansberry in the two mile and 880, Marie Alexander in the shotput and discus, and Lynda Osier broke the old high jump record. The coaches were Mr. John Presnell, Mr. Jim Rathje, and Ms. Linda Florine. All three felt the season was a very good one and expect good performances in the years to come.

Competitive and Serious The 1981 Varsity Tennis team had a well- balanced season with six wins, five losses and one tie. Their goals were to win as many meets as possible and to win a tournament. The team accomplished these goals, by win- ning six meets and winning the Yale tournament and tieing for first at the Imlay City Tournament. Yale ' s team also placed fifth at regional competi- tion and was the top Blue Water area team at regionals. Coach Steve Hunt is looking forward to future teams who will be serious and competitive like the 1981 Yale Tennis team.

Successful Softball Season The 1981 Varsity Softball team had an impressive season with 16 wins and five losses over-all, and 14-2 in the S.T.A. Coach Robinson thought the team worked well together and that was one of the reasons for their successful year. Coach Robinson and the team ' s goals were met very well. Their goals for this year were to win more games than last year and win the S.T.A. Championship. Denise Pattenaude received an award as S.T.A. Player of the Year. The awards were not limited to just the players; Coach Robinson was honored as S.T.A. Coach of the Year. Several returning lettermen will help lead the Bulldogs to another successful season.

The YHS victory cheer could be heard all through the school. During the pep assemblies, juniors tried hard to out yell the seniors, sophomores and freshmen, and won the spirit yell once. Beginning in October, the class of ' 83 began going to flower making parties, working all night filling garbage bags with flowers. They went to help work on the float each night as well as to participate in other Homecoming activities. The day of Homecoming the juniors were excited over their magnificent float. At half time the floats paraded around the football field, and the junior float won a well-deserved first place. The Powder Puff football game between Senior-Freshmen and Juniors-Sophomores was a highly disputed game. The juniors played a close game, however, in the last minutes, the game was still tied. At the beginning of the year, many juniors took the PSAT exam in anticipation of looking for the college of their choice. Working together with growing spirit, the class of ' 83 takes the final step to their senior year. Junior Class Officers, Front Row: Tammy Jones, Roseann Grace, Karen Meharg.

The seniors also showed their spirit the rest of the year when they took first in most of the compet- ition yells. The class officers organized for the seniors, car washes, dances and the senior play. This money was spent on the Christmas dance, the prom and most of all, graduation day. Graduation day was June 5 in the park. Many proud relatives and friends came to see the class of 82 at the proudest moments of their lives. The class of ' 82 would like to thank the class officers and advisors for helping them make this a rewarding year. The class of ' 82 was one of the most memorable classes to graduate from Yale High School and one well worth remembering.

Reppert 143 This year the Bulldog yearbook was constructed and produced in a class. Yearbook class was offered for the first time. This class made it easier for the transportation of the staff, and students involved in sports could help produce the yearbook. The class was taught by Miss Kathy Olson; the class consisted of 34 students who made up six sections of the yearbook. We were assisted at running the class by Miss Olson; the staff couldn ' t do all the work by themselves. The staff appreciated help from community businesses for buying advertisements, Marion ' s Studio of Brown City for photographic supplies and photos, and the Yale Expositor for sports photos. Ap- preciaton also goes to Mr. Al Weatherly of Graphic Creators. Without his help, we couldn ' t have made the yearbook. We would like to thank the teachers who cooporated with us (and those who didn ' t), the coaches, parents and most of all, the students who bought the book.
