Yorktown High School - Episode Yearbook (Yorktown, IN)

Text from Pages 1 - 192 of the 1983 volume:

f V big deal. We ' re just a small country school in an average-sized community. We ' ve never produced an American President or had a Nobel Prize winner walk through our hallways. The Who didn ' t find it necessary to include ML Pleasant Township on their 1982 Farewell Tour, and a world famous athlete who does Wheaties commercials hasn ' t graduated from Yorktown-yet. However, the makers of the Breakfast of Champions might not be aware of Senior Jay Neal ' s 1,589 yards rushing this season, making him one of the top high school fullbacks in the Midwest. Nor would most people recognize Senior Tim Hall if he passed them on the street, V P J ' 0- ■ r , ALLEN COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRAI 3 1833 03088 4248 Gc 977.202 Y82e 1983 Ep i sode i v n °TO 4a c-£ C £ v- - Tiaev even though he is the National Vice- President of the Future Business Leaders of America. Furthermore, Senior Liz and Sophomore Laraine Snider would never have expected national television to come to Yorktown until Actor Producer Henry Winkler decided to base an ABC television series on the Sniders ' PBS documentary A Family Business. In fact, everything happening at York- town-from Junior Mike Corya ' s painting talents to Senior John Cargile ' s imitation of a beached whale-says something. It says that when you walk into our school, what you see, what you hear, and what you feel are NOT WHAT YOU MIGHT EXPECT. -Damon Brawn OPENING - 1 CLUBS ACADEMICS - 18 STUDENT LIFE - SO SPORTS - 84 PEOPLE - 126 INDEX -172 CLOSING - 178 (Clockwise, from left) Exploding wllh prldt tnd itthuiltim.

Yorktown High School Yorktown, IN 47396 Volume 60 1983 Cat ' A Afeou 7:00 am Got up early this morning. Couldn ' t sleep. Too excited. Today was going to be a big day, the biggest of my life. I had an inter- view with a big star. A superstar. My assign- ment: interview Garfield the Cat. 10:00 am I ' ve been reading up on the cat, he ' s quite a guy. Movies, TV, magazines, books. Quite popular, but he has a smart mouth and hates dogs. Loves lasagna, but hates dogs. Can ' t blame him, lasagna tastes much bet- ter. 12:45 pm Couldn ' t eat lunch. Too excited. Inter- view ' s ready, so am I. Start up the car. Pull away from the curb. I ' m on my way. 1:05 pm Arrived at bookstore. Walked in. There ' s a huge line to see the cat. Hundreds of people. I buy a book for the cat ' s owner, Jim Davis, to sign. Garfield ' s amazing, but even he needs someone to clean his litter box. 1:20 pm Two ladies got in a fight in front of me, so I cut in front of them. They didn ' t notice, too excited. This gave me about an hour to wait. 2:25 pm It ' s about time. I ' m almost there. My hands are shaking and my knees are cold. I didn ' t say that right. Too excited. 2:35 pm Hello, Mr. Davis, I ' m Damon Brown and I would like to interview you and Garfield for our Yorktown High School Yearbook. Now, the first question is ... Sorry, no interviews. Oh, never mind. think he ' s hilarious because he reminds me of the things I ' d do if I was in that situation. — Jeff Davis, senior I enjoy reading about him because the things he says and does are what I ' d like to. — Julie Hochstetler, sophomore He ' s neat! He ' s everything depressing in life that you don ' t want to tell pe ople you feel. — Sherri Stevens, senior I like him because he reminds me of my own cats. — Scott Brassart, junior He ' s cute ... he really gets into his food! — Jodee Crisman, junior He gets you thinking because he stands up for what he believes. — Debbie Bronnenberg, junior Greetings from Garfield are received by Tracy Dillon, senior, every time she opens her locker. The increasing popularity of Garfield has pioneered masses of Garfield items. Tiger Paw becomes symbol of pride, spirit You ' ve seen it all over the place by now ... Its presence adds a touch of enthusiasm throughout the Yorktown community, and a feeling of pride to be a Tiger. Of course, this revolutionary emblem that has enhanced the community is the Tiger Paw. Our school seemed in need of Tiger Pride and the arrival of our paw emblem has moved us in the right direction, commented Cheerleading Sponsor Mrs. Claudia Wuthrich on her feelings about the paw. Pride within our school system has definitely in- creased, and the Tiger Paw has proven to be effec- tive in producing greater pride. Paws can be spotted abundantly all around the school, ranging from the Tiger spirit is the cat ' s meow as displayed by the popularity of Garfield, the awesome tiger paw, and the enthusiasm of the Yorktown crowd at the Muncie Sectional. The recent increase in tiger spirit has really helped to improve the morale around York- town, explained Senior Trish Hodson. bright, gold-colored paws on the street leading to the high school, to the bumper stickers that display the paw emblem and the phrase, I Love My Tigers! These are just a few of the many examples that accentuate Tiger Pride within our school system. Students have also sacrificed some time to make the Tiger Paw and Tiger Pride more emphasized at Yorktown. Junior Amy Hammersley displayed her creativity for students and faculty members by painting two large paws and the phrases exclaiming, Tiger Pride .. We ' re Great! on a wall near the front office. Amy commented, I think it ' s nice for the students to come into school and see it ... it makes the school look better. From bumper stickers and Tiger Pops, to the paintings and paw designs, Yorktown has discov- ered an emblem and the pride that comes with it . . . the Tiger Paw. Cindy Keller Opening 3 Docott Like, there ' s this really rad song on the radio called Valley Girl and, it ' s like about these girls that live in Encino, in the San Fernando Valley outside of Los An- geles. This song is kind of like, sung by Frank Zappa and his 15 year old daughter Moon Unit. I ' m so sure that this song is really popular, I mean, like, ya ' know no- body ever talked like that before. I guess there are, like, these val girls and val dudes who think that any person who isn ' t like, into the val scene, is like a total geek. Vals think that Tom Selleck and E.T. are, like, totally awesome. They also drive these really tubular Rabbit convertables with, like, their very own Valley-Girl Van- ity License Plates on them. Like, ohmigahd! Some of the flakey things that val girls do totally barf me out. Like, they have this valley-girl diet where they eat things like: one roll of sugarless mints, one can of lobster paste, one head of iceberg lettuce, and some other grody to the max things. Vals also have this totally gnarly club called the Honorary Vals where, like, Princess Di is a Member so is Brooke Shields, Cheryl Tiegs and Olivia Newton-John. Like, I guess if someone wants to be a member they can, like, buy this book called, How to be a Valley Girl and, like, read it and then answer these questions and if you answer them right, you ' re a member of the Honorary Vals. But, like, why would anyone want to be a member of such a grody to the max club. Like I said, nobody ever talked like that before. But, I guess it ' s like, the tubular craze or something. Gag me with a spoon. Kim North All valleyed up and no place to go, is Junior Kris Jacobsonas she wears several of t e pes of clothing that have become a common sight in the Yorktown hallways. A Opening k i ' k ' What do you mean, borrow a kleenex? ' I gotta tell ya something later! Lisa shouts down the hall. Instantly big thoughts pop into your brain. Maybe Steve wants to take you out! Maybe John wants to take you to the game and told Lisa! Oh No! What has she got to tell you!!! Lisa, what is it? Tell me now!! (you ' re begging) Oh forget it. It wasn ' t anything big. How many times has this happened to you? you wait in total suspense for two hours and they say forget it! This is just one example of expressions used at Yorktown High School. Can I borrow a Kleenex? Now there ' s a good expression. It ' s just one of those things said without thinking. But how would it look if you used a Kleenex and gave it back? Not too pretty. Have you heard this one? Your hair looks good. What did you do to it? That ought to make you feel great. This person is saying you must have went to extreme efforts to get your hair to look good and you ' ve never done it before. You look just like your brother. This statement should boost a girls ' ego. Especially if her brother plays football! This one ' s a favorite of mine You look nice to- day. What the person is saying is you ' ve never looked nice an entire day in life until today. You didn ' t look nice yesterday or the day before but you look nice today. I heard this one the other day: Your sisters are so pretty. You don ' t look a thing like them. Boy if that wouldn ' t give a girl a complex. She might think she has some genetic disorder or something. These are just a few of the expressions people use to unintentionally degrade, insult a nd injure their friends feelings. Maybe you don ' t think you use any of these expressions but believe me, you do — and I ' m dead serious. Amy Hammeraley Consulting a valley dictionary to brush up on their square pegs vocabulary are Freshmen Kelly Anderson and Chris Cle- venger. Also, Juniors Michelle Orcutt and Tracy Etchison display some of their favorite tubular fashions. ft Pkottei and PkoHieA 3-D Secretary Susie Ober discovers that using the new phone sys- tem brought out the split personality in her. Mrs. Ober was only one of the many teachers who found out the hard way that York- town ' s phone system was not what you might expect. To me, a phony is someone who comes up to me at a party and pretends to know me just so their friends will be impressed. — Liz Snider, senior I think I at most phonies are people that are so inse- cure that they Feel they have to put up a front so that everyone will like them. They don ' t realize that by do- ing this, peoplf. like them even less. — John Cargile, senior Hey, look, I ' m not a phony. I mean, gosh, I ' m no better than anyone else. To be totally honest with you, there isn ' t one hood, leech or low-life creature that I won ' t smile at when I pass them on opposite sides of the hall. I mean, gosh . . . Phonies have been around forever, and it ' s doubt- ful that any force will ever be strong enough to remove them from the Earth. Webster ' s Dictionary defines a phony as a slang term meaning sham or counterfeit, but when you ask people around York- town what they consider to be a phony, the answers will be a little different. A phony is someone who is so insecure that they feel they have to put up a front to impress people, stated Senior John Cargile. Junior Amy Goodpaster added, I feel sorry for phonies because they only talk to people who they feel are in the same class as they are . . . they act friendly to you when you ' re alone with them, but then they turn right around and ignore you in a crowd. If you want a simple definition, just ask Sopho- more Todd Walker. Chances are, he will reply, a backstabber. Even if you know how to define a phony, it won ' t do you any good unless you can pick one out. Here are several of the most popular methods around our high school. Senior Sherri Stevens advises, See if they act natural around you. If they do, then you ' ve probably made a friend, but if they don ' t, then chances are you ' ve confronted a fake. Another method, according to Senior Kathy Swin- sick is to See if they try to impress some people and then ignore others . . . also, some of them will start spreading rumors about people they don ' t like, whether they ' re true or not. If all else fails, just walk up to a person that you don ' t know, introduce youself, and kindly say, Par- don me, but you look like a phony to me. You are, aren ' t you? Your immediate lack of teeth will show you that this is a stupid method. Damon Brown Did you see that foxy guy in chemistry class, questions Senior Doranda Hoy as she engages in a pastime which has reached epidemic proportions at Yorktown; a love affair with her telephone. Opening ew phone system creates chaos for all Welcome to Mass Confusion, greeted Principal Jerome Secttor one September morning, as a school which was undergoing numerous changes, received yet another arrival: an (Jltracom phone system. The new system, which replaced Yorktown ' s dilapi- dated, one-line, crank starting, outdated antiques, cost an estimated 10 thousand dollars to install. This cost, however, was offset by the variety of functions gained through purchasing the equipment. Some of the capabilities of the system include: 3 simultaneously operating call-out lines; a hold and double hold call waiting option; an intercom speaker which allows conversation without a phone receiver; and most importantly, Doorbell music waiting on hold. When you ' re put on hold, it sounds like the Frog- ger game from Atari ... I love it! squealed Millie Barnhart, secretary. As fun and useful as (Jltr acom may be, though, it ' s a difficult piece of machinery to understand. When it was installed, several school administrators were baf- fled by the number of keyboard possibilities. After devoting a futile attempt to conquering the new phones, Keith Spurgeon, dean of students, joked, If anyone can guess the right buttons, they win the grand prize. Following several more attempts to figure out the superior piece of machinery, Spurgeon turned up his nose, sniffed, and said I wasn ' t really trying, you know. Opening 7 ll km tveg t She thought it was going to be easy. After all, how tough could it be to diet for one day; one measly day. But second period rolled around and with it came that familiar urge, that relentless compulsion to eat. No, she told herself, I ' m not hungry. Maybe if chew on my fingernails the grumbling will go away. The grumbling didn ' t go away, but her fingernails did. Study, she thought, If I study for my calculus quiz, then I won ' t have to think about food. Just as she began to study, though, a wonderful scent entered her inflamed nostrils — Cinnamon Rolls! She turned around in time to see Mrs. Saxman plop the last one thoughtlessly into her mouth. As she slumped down in her chair to cry, the bell sounded. It was time or recharging the system. It was time for her to get rid v jt j- bearable hunger which raged inside the heai t of r ■ ■■ i .- it was time to forget her diet unti her next class, it v _•■: me for lunch at the automat . . . Damon Brown Victim of the ' Sugar Fix 9 Most people absolutely hate going to the dentist. Of course it ' s nothing against the doctor; but it ' s just not fun having some guy poking around in your mouth with drill in hand, ready to fill any cavities. Many patients leave vowing never to indulge in sweets again. Like New Year ' s resolutions, the vow is soon forgot- ten when It happens. Your hands begin to sweat as drool escapes the corners of your mouth and you develop a nervous twitch. You know there ' s no turn- ing back now — you need a sugar fix. Okay, I confess. I too suffered from that undeniable urge to sink my teeth into something sweet; but I never drool. Anyway, it was in that moment of des- peration that I got my brilliant idea. I conned my advisor into assigning me a story on sugar. She actu- ally thinks I ' m out to save the school from cavities, but why should I care if 800 people walk around with holes in their teeth? Oh well, it worked. She was impressed and I tried to appear humble. I left the room with visions of sugar plums and staff promotions dancing in my head. Since I had no money, I spent my last 35C on a candy bar at lunch, I immediately had to eliminate the candy machines and go for the big bargain. It awaits Biting into one ofBaskin Robbin ' s 31-derfui flavors is Junior Amy Garrett at the ice cream booth on Carnival Day, while Fresh- man Todd Applegate catches The Pepsi Spirit at the annual Homecoming spirit day games. These were just two of the ways Yorktown students found to curb their appetites during the long days in school. in the front office, otherwise known as Candy Dish Alley. Here I struck it rich! It ' s great because it kills that gross taste in your mouth after eating lunch, claimed Senior Pam John- son, office aide. I was unable to comment because my teeth were adhered with peanut butter kisses. I did, however, agree. My next destination was the guidance office. Unfor- tunately, 1 was not welcomed with candy. Mrs. Donna Daniel, guidance secretary, recently had her supply wiped out by other greedy sugar addicts like myself. Dejectedly, I wandered into the office of Asst. Prin- cipal Barbara Underwood. BANAZAI! This was what I had been waiting for! Dr. Underwood is the proud owner of not one but two decorative, and full, candy dishes. I was happily devouring Russell Stover sour balls when she walked in. Go right ahead, she greet- ed. I keep it there for the kids ... I don ' t eat it . . . well, occasionally I do. I guess I ate quite a bit around Christmas, she finally confessed. I then realized the time and knew my candy-collect- ing adventure was at an end — at least for now. I grabbed another fistful of sweets and headed back to the journalism room. For some strange reason my teeth began to hurt. Cavities? No way! I tried to block out the pain and shuffled my notes in a convincing manner. I ' m glad my little scheme worked. Who knows? I may get that promotion yet, but first I ' ll have to make a date with a dentist. We were parking with another couple. When it was time to leave, I acted like the car wouldn ' t start. Everyone was getting all upset; my date was worried about making a bad impression on my mom. I waited until the last minute to finally start it. They didn ' t think it was as funny as I did. — Junior girl We were parking and another car came up. We didn ' t know what to do, so we just left. — Junior guy The night of the Sweetheart Ball, we went parking in a field before the dance. The car got stuck in the mud. We were covered with mud after pushing it out. We had to walk through two fields all dressed up to get to the dance. — Senior girl Vwtk We ' ll just talk . . . Want to go for a ride? ... 1 promise we ' ll just talk . . . Do you believe in ghosts? . . . Let ' s go talk . . . Sound familiar? These common lines and other sweet nothings have brought more cou- ples to the locally famous Hawk Cemetary than anywhere else. But what is Hawk ' s attraction? It has, like most cemetaries, a few dusty, old tombstones, a narrow gravel road, and a dragon. A what?! Okay, the dragon is pretty unique. Actually, it ' s only a tree that amazingly resembles a dragon in the moonlight. Of course, this moonlight affects more than trees. We went out there to drink but wound up parking, which is what I planned on in the first place, admitted one senior boy. A junior girl explained, My boyfriend and I wanted to be alone but our parents were home. We just ended up there because nobody else was around. No matter what reason, or excuse, is given, Hawk Cemetary provides that special place for many Yorktown students. The sentiments were best expressed by one sophomore boy who bragged, You remember those old fa- shioned submarine races? Well, we ' ve got ghost hunting! However, when asked if he has ever caught one of these ghosts he laughed, Nah, I ' ve always been too busy to look.

Working through lunch pays off as you fin- ish by 4:45. But before you can go home you have to get a few shots of play practice, a ball game, and Denny ' s Diner where the aroma of down-home coo- kin ' sends you on your way. It is then, after you reintroduce yourself to your parents, that you can devour the charred ruins of your dinner. It ' s all taken in stride because you know it ' s part of being on the negative side of life. Forgotten meals, last minute deadlines, and hours in the darkroom are nothing new to photographers. Photogs, as they ' re affectionately called, have things a lot rougher than what they are given credit for. Senior Mark Scholer explained, Everywhere you go and no matter what you are doing, photography invades your life. He did, however, admit to there being advantages. I like getting into everything for free, he laughed. There are disadvantages as well. Senior Tim Thom- as doesn ' t like, everyone banging on the door want- ing their pictures. But not all pressures come from inside the staff. People always want their picture taken, but if it doesn ' t make the paper they get mad and act like you ' re not their friend. That hurts, expressed Wendy Baker, senior. Time heals all wounds, and hard work pays off in the end. When the year is over, it ' s going to be great going through the yearbook and knowing I took those pictures. Besides, I ' ll know the story behind each one, concluded Senior Lorrie Stout. Lynn Miliar In the dark, is Senior Wendy Baker as she looks over a set of negatives. After choosing the best pictures, a photographer has the tasks of printing contact sheets and the actual pictures.

Yorktown students discover High Cost of Friendship 9 Do you feel the bulk of your wallet dwindling in size lately? Has it been six months since your car ' s gas tank has touched F instead of E ? Has your finan- cial picture become so bleak that you ' ve started using food stamps at McDonalds? If you ' ve answered any of these questions yes, you may have become an unwill- ing victim of the High Cost of Friendship. The High Cost of Friendship (HCF as it is common- ly known) is an old problem around Yorktown. Howev- er, with the economy plummeting and unemploy- ment skyrocketing, it seems that epidemic proportions are arising. When asked to take a survey on the problem, several students had interesting opin- ions. times you go out to see movies and get pizza with your friends: after a while it starts getting expensive, remarked one senior. It wouldn ' t be that bad, but when you have to use all your gas to take friends home from practices and games, then you don ' t have any money left for your- self, revealed another. Not everyone felt that having friends was a costly investment. Replying to the same question, one soph- omore felt, If I thought that having friends cost me a lot of money, then I wouldn ' t have any. While most people were very decisive on the ques- tion, Senior Barry Kimbrough explained, A friend- ship can cost as much or as little as two people want. The cost isn ' t important, though, it ' s the people. Whether or not friendship is expensive isn ' t rela- tive. Having friends is an important part of growing up and coping with life, and most of us are glad to spend money on our friends from time to time. But when you put out five bucks on pizza, three on a movie, two on video games and five on gas; watch out for the symptoms of the High Cost of Friendship. Damon Brown If A You ' ve had a really raunchy day. You were kicked into the rubber room for talking dur- ing second period, you flunked a geometry test that had been forgotten, and you were the only person caught throwing pudding pops at the first food fight of the year. As you start home you feel relieved, but suddenly you real- ize the worst is yet to come — your little fresh- man sister is going home to tell on you. The problems of going to school with broth- ers and sisters have been stereotyped by tele- vision, books and magazines. Showing that two people can ' t live together and work to- gether is a comical, but often inaccurate de- scription of family life in the 80 ' s. My brother and I get along great at school and at home. We joke around and talk things over. More than anything though, we ' re really good friends, stated Junior Kris Jacobson. We get along pretty well at school, added Senior Londa Shively. Even though we fight a lot at home, we still are pretty close to each other. Freshman Phil Starsky gave a comical de- scription of his relationship with his sister by saying, We get along better at school. At least my sister says Hi to me there. Showing a different view, Senior Tom Wei- lant explained, My brother and I have a pla- tonic relationship at home and at school. I don ' t bother him and he doesn ' t bother me. If you don ' t cherish the thought of spending eight additional hours a day only a few rooms from your brothers and sisters, you ' re not alone. If, however, you don ' t mind sharing the bathroom, bedroom and school, then you ' re in a large group of people who are quickly learn- ing to adjust to the reality of going to school with part of the family.

' Juniors Colleen Coulon, Debbie Moore and Steph- anie Bean discover that going back to their earlier days at Yorktown can be a good way to have some fun. They talk at school too? While most brothers and sisters find it almost impossible to get along. Junior Sam Schlagel and his twin sisters Kathy and Kelly share each other ' s company. Opening 13 Having a Hale of a time Q. I understand you ' re a part of an infamous dog act here at Yorktown. How did you get the idea to teach your dog tricks? A. One day I said to myself, Hey, this dog ' s got potential! Q. Have you ever considered going professional with the act? A. Well, I keep waiting for David Letterman to write me to be on his Stupid Dog Tricks seg- ment of his show, but he hasn ' t so far. Q. Have you ever written to him? A. Gh, no comment. Q. I guess that ' s a yes. Is there anything particular- ly outstanding that has happened to you since you came to Yorktown? A. There ' s been so many, but now I can ' t think of one. I guess the biggest adjustment I had to make was green. Q. Wait a minute. A green adjustment? I don ' t un- derstand. A. Well, I hate green! It was really hard to go out and buy anthing that was green. Q. Did you ever get over it? A. Let me put it this way, I ' m still adjusting. Lynn Miller That ' s right, I ' m bad, insists Senior Brian Thise as he pre- pares to peel out of the high school parking lot. Put your hands on your hips! exclaims Dr. Hales ' dog Scrappie. If you do it right this time, I ' ll give you a biscuit. faAt 7UK£4 It ' s a well known fact that school can ' t always be fun. In fact, sometimes it seems like school can ' t ever be fun. Maybe someday though, we ' ll all realize that some of our greatest moments and best times were spent at school — times most of us will never forget. I think one of the greatest times I ever had was when the marching band placed in the top five at state finals, reflected Junior Jeff Sanders. Freshman Tim Hayworth commented that Seeing the computer exhibition that FBLA put together go over as well as it did was super. It made me feel like all that work that went in was worth it. Giving a different twist on the subject, Junior Cathy Owens unexpectedly commented, Nothing ever made me as happy as when I finally passed one of Mr. Gay- lor ' s history tests. Not all of us will remember high school as being a nonstop party. But whenever we have the chance to look back on the year just behind us, we ' ll remember that it was a year that brought about a lot of fast times that are not what you might expect. Damon Brown The best thing that happened to me this year was performing in front of over 18,000 people at state marching finals. — Alisha Patterson, freshman I doubt if I ' ll ever forget having two bus wrecks during the girl ' s swimming season. — Chris St. John, freshmen It was great to have a winning football team this year. Watching us defeat South- side at Homecoming was super. — Darrin Fogle, senior To tell you the truth, nothing that great happened this year. It was sort of boring. — Todd Young, sophomore Going chic or going sheik? Principal Jerry Secttor receives an unexpected addition to his wardrobe as he celebrates his birthday.

Now that you ' ve read through the opening, let ' s go on to the Clubs and Academics section, alright? Don ' t rip this section out of your book though, because you might be surprised to see some of the achieve- ments that Yorktown groups have accomplished over the past year. You might not remember, for in- stance, the national award winning computer exhibition entitled, Technology for the 80 ' s, Business and Home, that Yorktown ' s Future Business Leaders of America presented to the community last March. Then there was Colors in Motion, the first drill team competition sponsored by a Delaware County school. The contest was hosted in late February by Images, Yorktown ' s own flag and rifle corp. And who else but Yorktown ' s Radio TV class would take a field trip to soul radio station WTLC to talk with disc jockey Tony LaMont and pick up their Fantastic Plastic game cards. So there you have it, Clubs and Academics. It may not seem that exciting to you, but give it a chance. If you read on, you may see some things that are not what you might expect.

This has without a doubt been a Cin- derella Year. ' ' so to speak, said Mr. Stisher. A division I rating in the Winchester Dis- trict Competition, a high ranking finish in the Greenwood Invitational, and a fifth place finish in state finals, are achieve- ments you might not expect from a band with 34 freshmen and a rookie director. A new director was not the only addition this year. For the first time a the band had a mascot. Fred was a great inspiration and a great example for the band when they were down, explained Senior band member Laurie Russel. Fred didn ' t come out of no- where though, actually Fred is Mr. Stisher ' s cat, and when the band was down, it was Let ' s do it for Fred! Fred was not only an inspiration to the Marching Band, but also to the Concert Band, which performed in the Christmas Concert and Spring Rhythms, and also competed in the ISSMA High School Orga- nizational Contest. If you were at the basketball games you heard the Pep Band, which brought to you many popular tunes during the home games. In addition to Concert Band and Pep Band, there is also a Jazz Ensemble which for the first time this year gave a Jazz con- cert. The Jazz Ensemble not only performs for the public, but also participated in Di- mensions in Jazz at Ball State University and Elmhurst Jazz Festival in Fort Wayne. The officers for the band this year were Michelle Dorethy, president; Doug Mount, vice president; Nancy Hanson, secretary and Laurie Russel, treasurer. Just what you might expect from Junior Dean Ja- derston is trombone excellence as he entertains the crowd at the annual alumni parade. Brass — Freemar - Nottinghar Sanders, . ' ■ ' ston, Simpson.

Long hours pay off for Choral Department When you ' re backstage you can tell when the curtain is about to open because t ' s so silent. There ' s so much excitement and electrictiy that if you were to touch someone sparks might fly, admitted Choir President Londa Shively. But when the curtains opened audiences were entertained with the singing and danc- ing talents of the Yorktown High School Choral Department. This year Swing Incor- porated, Modernaires and the Tiger Con- nection showed off their talents and skill in the Variety Show, at Spring Rhythms, on Carnival Day, and other various perfor- mances such as a Christmas Concert at Muncie Mall. Performing for entertainment and enjoy- ment of others was not the only thing ac- complished by the 1982-83 Choral Depart- ment. The three choirs, competing in their first contest at Ball State, received several first places in Divisions I, II and III in both solo and ensemble performances. Moder- naires traveled to Butler University, to com- pete in the State Solo-Ensemble Contest where they received a first place in Division I. Competing in the Watseka Swing Choir Invitational at Watseka, Illinois, Swing In- corporated was one of the seventeen swing choirs chosen to compete. Swing Inc. placed 8th. Modernaires and Swing Inc. combined their talent s at a choir contest in Wabash where they received a Division I first place rating. Where do the choirs get their talent and skill? Practice, Practice, Practice! When we prepare for a show the practices last until the whole show is perfect, admitted Freshman Lisa Huffman. All the time and effort put into choir really pays off. Starting with day one some of the kids are really backward about get- ting on stage, and in the end you can tell they really love it! commented Choir direc- tor JoAnne Keesling. Looking back on the 82-83 choir year, Junior Bret Cook admitted, The best thing 1 like about choir is me! Swing, Inc. — Row 1: J. Fahl, J. Cargile, L. Murdock. Row 2: T. Walker, M. Beuoy, R. Davis.

In addition to painting the town, Kal- lida also sponsored the popular Nickel pitch and ever famous Dart Throw on Carnival Day in March. Club members also traveled to Ball State University for a sculp- ture and drawing exhibit. Kallida ' s officers included President Sheri Dillard, senior; Vice-President Eric Rahe, senior; Treasurer Stephanie Bean, ju- nior; and Secretary Debbie Williams, sen- ior. Art classes and clubs were not the only creative outlet for talented students. Oper- ating a lathe, drawing house plans or just learning to repair automobile parts are only a portion of what Industrial Arts classes have to offer. Junior Rick Harris commented, Draft- ing will help me in my vocational field. That same idea was echoed by Industrial Arts instructor Willard Cheatham when he justified, . . . even if it ' s for a practical or vocational use, these classes come in handy.

Broadcaster staff chows backwards while episode absorbs Creepshow Fifteen minutes and counting! shouts a staffer and almost instantly Room 137 begins to click with chaos as bustling bo- dies of the Broadcaster and Episode staffs add finishing touches to their final products. When applying for their positions, some staffers didn ' t quite expect the work it takes to put forth a newspaper or yearbook. Angie McCartney, Episode staffer, ad- mitted, There ' s much more to it than ap- pears and sometimes it ' s difficult. Broadcaster staff member Stephanie Bean agreed with Angie by adding, I didn ' t realize how much work it takes to put a newspaper together. Besides the work, the staffers didn ' t ex- pect all the other events that highlighted an active year for newspaper and yearbook staffs. Episode staff members piled into cars and headed to Tex Critter ' s Pizza Jamboree to chow, then took in a view of Stephen King ' s Creepshow. Broadcaster staffers kept in shape and worked off frustrations when they broke away from deadlines and put on their sweats and tennies to run a few laps. So both staffs took part in informal staff meetings to break up the routine where food was readily consumed as new dead- lines were discussed. The Christmas holiday was celebrated by the publications staffs when they took part in a backwards progressive dinner that started with desserts and worked up to ap- petizers. Wrapping up her thoughts was Sports Editor Kim Guinn when she stated, Be- sides all of the hard work, yearbook is really worth the effort because of all the good times shared. Newspaper — Row 1: D.

Who else Dut Drama Club. This year Yorktown ' s own Drama Club started off the year entering a decorated car n the homecoming parade entitled, Tiger Spirit is Out of This World. Drama Club ' s next project was the fall play Visit to a Small Planet which was recommended to perform at State Contest and received 1st alternate. The Indianapolis Repertory The- ater then drew the attention of the Drama Club when its feature was the play You Can ' t Take It With You, which was the spring play the club was putting on. It helped me see how another person would interpret my character and get ideas from the way they use acting techniques, stated Junior Carol Cooper who played Pen- ny in You Can ' t Take It With You. At the end of the year the club held the traditional Ozzie Banquet. The mock Oscar awards banquet was highlighted this year by all people attending dressing as insects and aliens. Another performing club at Yorktown is the Speech Team. Competing in nine speech meets, includ- ing Sectional and Regional, the speech team had a surprise year, according to sponsor Bruce Gaylor due to the fact that almost all members were new. Placing in Sectional and advancing to Re- gional for the speech team were Sherri Ste- vens in Radio Broadcasting, Tim Hall in Im- promptu, Pam Ober and Colleen Riggs in Dramatic Duo, Tonya Siewart in Poetry, and Dave Lotz received alternate in the Dra- matic category. Officers of this year ' s speech team were Meg Williams as president, Tom Weilant as vice-president, John Whitenack as secre- tary and Michelle Orcutt as treasurer. Final touchups are given by Senior Lynn Miller to Delton-4, alias Carol Cooper, as she prepares for the fall play. Visit to a Small Planet.

There ' s a dance at the high school and the Radio and T.V. Club will be spinning the discs! You walk in the door with four of your best friends and already your fingers are snapping and your feet are shuffling. The lights are flashing, people are dancing, the beat is bouncing and suddenly you feel this is a Saturday to be remembered. This year the Radio and T.V. Club played the sounds for 16 dances just like that one. With their $2,500 set-up including speak- ers, turntables, records, and various lights the club made those dances a bit more ex- citing than usual. The club also played mu- sic during both lunch hours and on Carnival Day. At Yorktown High the Radio and T.V. Club isn ' t the only section dealing with sights and sounds. The Audio-Visual De- partment at Yorktown is headed by Jane Schmottlach, but where would she be with- out her aides. Yes, those friendly people who bring the filmstrips, films, VTR ' s, and records to our classrooms for our viewing. They ' re the ones we thank for delivering those educational materials into our lives. Let ' s not forget the other aides. In the library we have the ones who check out the books and put the returned books to their proper spots. In the office, the aides collect attendance, run errands, take phone calls, and do other tasks to help out.

This was a highly successful and active year for FBLA starting off with the National Leadership Conference and Chapter Lead- ership Conference during the summer. FBLA ' s most successful activity was the computer exhibit entitled Technology for the 80 ' s Business and Home, which was held at the Lions Delaware County Fair- grounds. The club raised its finds by $3000 selling merchandise from Kleinhenn Greeting Sales Kits. Other activities such as work- shops, conferences and meeting with other FBLA chapters were accomplished by Yorktown ' s FBLA chapter. FBLA was 10 years old this year and celebrated with an anniversary dinner and entertainment. A Halloween party featuring the movies Halloween II and Death Val- ley was held at Mrs. Stephens ' house. The Christmas holiday was celebrated at Y.M.C.A. with dinner and use of the facili- ties. With the popularity of Vocational Educa- tion, the week of February 6-12 was entitled National Vocational Education Week. On this week FBLA, DECA, OEA and FHA had a display in the front hall and sold suckers during lunch, donating the money to the soup kitchen. Also during that week, the organization members wore badges, held a Blue and Gold day, a dress for busi- ness day, Teacher Appreciation Day and a breakfast served on Friday.

Clubs provide ' a touch of class 9 Cadet Teaching Three periods of each day at Yorktown High School, 31 students file off their seper- ate ways to tackle a roomful of kids be- cause they enrolled in a class entitled Cadet Teaching. I think its great, replied Mr. Dave McGalliard, art teacher of Pleasant View Elementary, when asked about the cadet teaching system. He added, It gives the student teachers a chance to see how they were at that age. Kim Harke, fifth grader, also liked the system. When asked about it she stated, I think it ' s kind of neat ... I ' d like to be one when 1 get in high school. Cadet teaching is just one of the on-the- job training courses at Y.H.S. Another out- of-school job training course is Career Cen- Career center, DEC A Every day the Career Center students load a bus and travel to the Muncie area Career Center where the 14 job training courses range from Cosmetology to Weld- ing. DECA, Distributive Education Clubs of America, is a club related to the class DE. DECA students experience business oper- ations when they take turns working and operating the Tiger ' s Den. DECA students also get jobs throughout this course. Like many DECA students, Senior Todd Holloway who is president of DECA, re- ceived his interview at Hoyt Wright in Mun- cie through DECA and got the job. When asked how he decided to join DECA, Holloway replied, Some people were talking about DECA and me and some of my friends decided to join. OEA OEA, Office Education Association, is another course that deals with job training. OEA members participated in many busi- ness competitions and workshops to deve- lope business skills and office practices. District officer Pam McCall wrapped up her thoughts on OEA when she comment- ed, OEA was a challenging experience for me. I was able to plan all kinds of social activities during the year.

He ' s been going with Cindy Jones for three months. Tomor- row is Cindy ' s birthday; she ' ll be 16. To make it special Joe ' s baking her a cake. Joe works hard on his cake and invites her over. They sit by candlelight and begin to eat. After the first bite, Cindy breaks up with Joe. The next day, Joe signs up for Foods 1 and 2. Not all home economic students sign up under these circumstances but according to Exploring Childhood instructor Donna Bookout, Home-economics is about daily living and kids need to learn about it. From kids to clothing there are 13 Home- ec course to help a student prepare himself for the big world. If its children you want to know more about then Exploring Childhood is for you. Every Tuesday and Thursday tots come in for two hours and are cared for and enter- tained by a student. It ' s great when these kids come in ... I love it. admitted Junior Rick Harris. If you ' re like Joe and don ' t know a rolling pin from a cheese grater maybe Foods 1 and 2 is more your thing. The more involved home-ec student may join Future Homemakers of America. The highlight of FH A ' s year was the annual FHA Sweetheart Ball on February 12. The semi- formal dance was held in the cafeteria which was decorated in pink, red, and sil- ver. The dance was a highly successful as many sweethearts ... got deck-out to boogie as recalled by Junior Lisa Heath. Sophomore Todd Phelps mentioned, I had a great time but afterwards I was broke! Senior Doranda Hoy was Queen of the 1983 Sweetheart Ball. Doranda was crowned at the dance then led off a spot- light dance to the theme song Truly . Miss Hoy ' s court consisted of Junior Robin Davis, Senior Sue Bothel and Freshman Connie Bousman. Congratulations! ' .

A moment to remember is treasured by Senior Carla Snodgrass and her date Eric Heistand at the 1983 FHA Sweetheart Ball. The reason I joined FHA is I wanted to become more involved in the Sweetheart Ball and to get more involved in Home-Economics, — Junior Linda Nelson. In a couple of years I ' m going to be on my own so I need to learn a few things. I took Foods so I could learn how to cook some other things be- sides cereal. — Junior Bret Rudbeck.

Physical Education builds body, character Pumping iron, snow skiing or just strech- ing some tense muscles can really break up the monotony of a hectic day. Going seven hours without something to motivate your system really gets rou- tine, claims Freshman Nancy Thise, phys- ical education student. Maybe this is why so many students add weightlifting, ad- vanced lifesaving, advanced phys. ed. or elective swimming to their more brain-baf- fling courses. Your system really feels clean after a good workout, admitted Junior Amy Mc- Coy, weightlifting stundent.

Brenda White, freshman P.E. instructor, followed up that statement when she claimed, I ' m trying to teach the kids how to keep their bodies in shape, even after the teenage years.

This story problem sound familiar? It ' s a Jack Jorden original. Mr. Jorden, Algebra 3 4 instructor, has his own way of adding :est to the mind-boggling course by tossing n mother-in-law jokes and other whimsical junch lines. Math also has it ' s serious side. Although, someone may not come upon you one day jnd ask for the cube root of 9,642,483, the jge of computers is coming on strong and according to Phil Kammerer, ... math las it ' s importance with computers. Math and science lead into each other, ioted Kammerer. Maybe this is why so nany students load up on the science and math courses offered. An individual ' s future will be deter- mined directly or indirectly by the new sci- entific discoveries and their application. stated Terry Nusbaum, biology teacher. On the more casual side of science is the Science Club, sponsored by Dave Parker, astronomy instructor. I just thought since I was so involved in science at school, I might as well join a club that is a part of it, admitted Junior Meg Williams. The club had a successful year as they received 3rd in the Homecoming Float con- test, held a plant sale at open house, trav- eled to Mooresville to visit Link Observa- tory and visited Ball State University ' s planetarium. Leaving the numbers and formulas be- hind was the Chess Club when they broke away activity periods to involve them- selves in one-on-one competition.

Officers, Council get jump on society I hope my students learn some survival information and skills and some under- standing of political science, so that they may be better citizens, commented Gov- ernment Instructor Steve York. One way a student can directly exper- ience government is to run for a class of- fice. The four offices include president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer. The junior class has a business officer. Some duties of a class officer include planning the class float for homecoming, raising funds and planning for prom, setting up graduation activities, and other class events. When asked why he wanted to be an offi- cer, Freshman Class President Danny Flynn admitted, I ran to get experience in leadership and responsibility. Student Council is another way a student can involve himself in student government. Two great powers hang side by side in harmony as Juniors, Mark Harris and Melinda Blanch finish a pro- ject in history class. With six representatives from each class, student council consists of twenty-five members. I like the way we work together and cooperate ... stated Sophomore Member Kara Debord. The council this year began with an over- night retreat to Brown County State Park. Other activities planned and sponsored by student council included homecoming dance, spirit games, Sadie Hawkins dance, Christmas decorations, Teacher Apprecia- tion Day, and a canned food drive for the needy. I think that a student government such as Student Council is beneficial to both the school and students, stated Student Coun- cil President Scott Brassart. Government plays an important role in today ' s society and at Yorktown, students get an introduction to this system. As a senior, students are required to take a semester of government. This class is de- signed to inform the student about the sys- tem. Slam ' em!! and get some points as Sophomore Lyd ia Dulaney enjoys Yorktown Night at Tex Critter ' s sponsored by Student Council.

Honor Society Quill and Scroll 70 pints collected in drive To me visiting the County Home was the best thing Honor Society did. At first we were nervous about going, but after we were there and saw how happy it made the elderly, it made us feel really good, ad- mitted Senior Cindy Keller. Starting off the year, the Society treated 40 children of the Daleville Day Care Center to Halloween goodies and trick-or-treat bags. During the Thanksgiving holiday Hon- or Society furnished 4 baskets with turkey and other Thanksgiving trimmings for 4 needy families. January was the month for the popular Honor Society blood drive at Yorktown High. Nearly 70 pints were collected over the two day drive and was donated to Ball Memorial Blood Bank. Following the Blood Drive, Honor Soci- ety members spent a day playing bingo at the County Home with the residents, and giving away prizes. During March and April, the Society col- lected money for Muscular Dystrophy and Cancer Society. Their last monthly project took place when the members took more than 20 orphans on a picnic and wiener roast at the Ball State Stadium park. The 82-83 year was completed at the car- ry-in banquet, which consisted of the initi- ation of new members and officers, a good- bye to the seniors, and the receiving of gold tassles and cords. Another honorary society at Yorktown is the Quill and Scroll. This year the journal- ism honorary had 9 members with Liz Snider as president. Their annual banquet was held at the Carriage House. Raggedy Ann and Andy, alisa Honor Society mem- bers Rick Kelly and Liz Snider, treated Daleville Day Care Center children at Halloween. Quill and Scroll — Row 1: M. Scholer, Secretary Treasurer D.

Nothing about student life at Yorktown would really raise you from the dead, (for more information see Ghost Hunt- ing, pages 10 and 11). We ' ve never been recognized for donating a six-digit sum of money to charity, nor have we ever tried to clean-up all of the sewers in Delaware County. But, when you think about it, the student body at YHS has accomplished afew things thatare a little bit out of the ordinary. Most schools in Indiana hold their annual Junior- Senior Prom in the romantic setting of the high school cafeteria, but Yorktown decided that a more appropriate location would be the ballroom of the Anderson Sheraton Inn-complete with indoor pool, sauna and the Electric Dance and Video Company. Yorktown seniors are no different from any other class when they hold their yearly skip day, but when radio station Q95 dedicates part of its programming to the guys at the pit, the event takes on a special meaning. And where else but at YHS could you be witness to one of the most hotly debated issues in North America-the issue of the Honor Society Golden Robers at commencement. Our school may not be ready to set the world on fire with dazzling accomplishments and feats of amazement, but with a student body that ' s always ready to try something new, Yorktown student life is not what you might expect. Student life 51 Homecoming thrills and chills It was cold in Yorktown, but plenty of excitement and thrills warmed the crowd as the Tigers burned Southside, 19-16. Homecoming festivities and preparations began long before the October 16th game. Pre- game dress days brought about twins, togas, grass skirts, pros- titutes and an epidemic of green and white. The seniors over- came the other classes during the Spirit Games to win the Spirit Stick. Sophomore Tracey Etchinson stated, I think all of the classes did a great job of supporting the team and the staff did a good job of organiz- ing. Saturday ' s activities began at 10 a.m. with the parade. The senior class float placed first with their Green Crush and DECA and Science Club also re- ceived awards. Following the parade was a carnival in the school parking lot, sponsored by the high school choirs. People flocked to the 2 p.m. game and many had trouble finding seats. The Tigers fal- tered in the first half but once they gained momentum just be- fore the onset of halftime, they could not be stopped. Blanket covered fans showed their Tiger pride throughout the game. Senior Cindy Keller was named Homecoming Queen during halftime and the Seniors walked away with the Alumni ' s Tiger Spirit Award. 1 was ner- vous before they announced it and shocked afterwards. said Cindy, I wanted to cry but I knew 1 shouldn ' t right then. I was very excited and happy. Filled up with pride is Senior John Cargile as he participates in Anything Goes Day during the judging in the gym.

Homecoming 53 Kreton comes alive A small cast, but plenty of enthusiasm tagged the fall play, Visit to a Small Planet, as a very successful and lucrative play. The play characters, such as Kreton, General Tom Powers, Roger Spelding, Ellen Spelding, and others, actively displayed an imaginative affair which in- volved beings from outer space, insisting they are not from Mars. One of these beings named Kreton, played by Sen- ior Thespian member John Car- gile, came to earth hoping to see a war. Unfortunately Kreton lands on earth following the Civ- il War, and misses his wish. Junior Jeff Sewell who played Conrad Mayberry com- mented, I really enjoyed work- ing and being a part of the play . . .

Valleyview Sounds from Southern Indiana were the D.J. ' s for the evening, another change from the tradi- tional band dance.

The single ring ceremony began with a walk through a flower filled arch and down the aisle to the tune of the Wed- ding March . Brides received straw boquets for the duration of the ceremony. Three new Marryin ' Sams were seen this year, Dean of Students Keith Spurgeon, Senior John Cargile, and Principal Dr. Jerome Sect- tor. I couldn ' t stop laughing! said Junior Angie Arthur, It was really fun. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of the Corn King and his court. Senior Brian Condon was the King and Ju- nior Jeff Barr, Sophomore Kurt Debord and Freshman Danny Flynn were the Niblets. The dance, sponsored by the Student Council, brought in around $800, according to Stu- dent Council President Scott Brassart, junior. It went really well this year. stated Brassart. It ran smoothly and the new location was great.

Lights, cameras, action! . . . and the show begins with a pre- sentation of Musical Jambo- ree. Choreographed dance rou- tines combined with vocally impressive songs continued to spread excitement throughout the audience. The choreogra- phy was great!

Following the song, Musical Jamboree were many songs written by such popular artists as Manhattan Transfer, Billy Joel, The Beatles, Earth, Wind, and Fire, Willie Nelson, and The Carpenters. A country-western medley and a gospel medley were also incorporated into the show. Many hours of preparation were spent for the Fall Preview, starting the first day of school, remembered Senior Choir Mem- ber Damon Brown. Preparing the set as well as the music required plenty of time by the choir boosters, and proved to be a beneficial asset to the performance, Brown concluded. Raise ' em high!

Your home away from home from September to June. There are lockers that won ' t open and lockers that won ' t shut, microscopic gym lockers and lockers shared by two. It gets crowded at times, admitted Senior Janet Rott, but it ' s convenient for me when Shelly (Reed) already has the locker open. YHS students have definitely shown their locker decorations. Senior Barry Kimbrough ' s place has been known to catch more than a few male glances with his array of females clad (barely) in beachwear. It makes me look forward to pass- ing period, stated Barry with a devilish grin. As most Tigers have figured out, gym lockers are not meant to be shared. Quite to the con- trary! For those lucky enough to nab them, two of the little cubes do quite nicely. Just think, you can keep two pair of shorts at school instead of one and if your feet are small enough, you might be able to squeeze in an extra pair of socks. Freshman Wendy Caron was heard to remark, They ' re just about the right size ... for midgets. Somedays, you just don ' t feel like facing the daily hassles of sticky lockers. See if this sounds familiar: Mom, I don ' t feel too good, you say as you struggle out of bed. Can I stay home today? This scene is repeated day after day in millions of homes across the nation. An epidemic? Perhaps. It is the dreaded Sick of School Syndrome. SOSS can strike anywhere at any- time. Victims ' complaints range from headaches to stomach pains to a possible heart attack if you don ' t return to bed imme- diately after self-diagnosis. After a nap, you do feel a lit- tle better but you assure your mother that you should remain home for the rest of the day in case you suffer a relapse.

A fistful of snow is deposited on Soph- omore Michelle Belleau by Senior Eric Henderson as a few inches of white stuff fell. Fickle Mother Nature takes it easy on us As summer turned into fall, the thermometer rapidly dropped. Rumors of an early and hard winter were rampant throughout Yorktown. Football games were times of warm jack- ets, mittens and blankets as fans raced to reach the warmth of the gymnasium during the season. Once again Mother Nature changed her mind and granted us with one of the easiest win- ters that Yorktown has seen in recent years. Hopes for snow days were soon squelched as only a few inches fell each time it snowed. It was a good win- ter, stated Senior Ami Barlow, but I wish that I could ' ve used my snowmobile. 1 really missed the after- school snowball fights, ad- mitted Junior Kris Jacobson. 1983 rolled around, after a Christmas in the low 60 ' s, and with it what appeared to be spring. Temperatures in late February and early March reached up into the seventies and short sleeves began to make frequent showings in the halls of Yorktown High.

Immediately following sec- ond period, the fifth annual Car- nival Day began, with students and faculty members busily working to prepare their individ- ual booths or activities. Among the newest and most original ideas incorporated into Carnival Day were the Junior ' s Ice Cream Parlor, where flavors of chocolate, strawberry, chocolate chip and mint choco- late chip ice cream could be purchased. Also new to Carni- val Day, the Student Council sponsored a dance with the vid- eo equipment and sounds pro- vided by the Electric Dance Company. Many music artists such as Billy Joel and Tom Pet- ty sang their popular songs over a wide screen television to add to the musical enjoyment. Many students agreed that Carnival Day has improved over the years. Senior Minnie Oommen stated, Carnival Day was better this year than the years before . . . It ' s a break from being in class all the time. In addition to Minnie, Kurt Debord, Sophomore Class President, commented, I think the students enjoy Carnival Day. It ' s much better than school! Of course there were others who expressed a different point of view toward this annual event. Senior Mitch Marlow ad- mitted, Since this is my last year in high school, I think they should do away with it. Sophomore Mike Jeffers also added, 1 like Carnival Day, but I don ' t think it should last all day; maybe it should just be a half-day. As students participated in indulging in various kinds of food, such as pizza, ice cream, funnel cakes and tacos, they could also venture into one of the two movies shown, which were Rocky III and On Gold- en Pond. If you felt like you wanted a little more excite- ment, you could move on to one of the Senior vs. Faculty bas- ketball games or the Honor So- ciety Pepsi ring toss. Among all of the choices of things to do, the most popular activities were the movies, the dance and the places with food. Senior Tracy Dillon com- mented, The activities that were time-consuming such as the movies and the dance, kept me busy and made the day go fast. Student Council Jailers busily pre- pare notices for their victims. Fresh- man Eric Jacobson, student council member, has his hands full filling out slips for the jail. Carnival Day 65 Daytona 83: Fun in the sun The smell of Hawaiian Tropic scents the air. Bodies in various shades of red, white and brown decorate the courtyard of the El Caribe Motel. Cars and motor- cycles can be heard on the near- by beach. It ' s the week you ' ve waited for and dreamed about since your freshman year. Spring Break, Daytona style. It ' s something nobody should miss, admitted Senior John Whitenack. Throughout the area, fris- bees are whizzed through the air as far as the Foster-Granted eye can see. Others with less adren- aline choose to catch some winks while catching some rays. Brave seniors strive valiantly for the ultimate tan withstand- ing the burning sun beams that usually results in the ultimate burn. Solarcaine is in abun- dance and the distinct smell lin- gers long after the last blistered shoulders are soothed. Aside from getting a tan, many seniors made new and lasting friendships. Senior Laura Mark explained, We met the girls from Alexan- dria High School on the airplane on our way there.

On March 17 and March 18, audiences of You Can ' t Take It With You were humored by the antics of an unusually ' aver- age ' American family. The stage was set as a basic living room, but everything from writ- ing plays to a spectacular fire- works display occurred there. This Pulitzer Prize winning play is a comedy with a theme. The family in the play, the Vander- hofs, have their quirks, but they stick together because they are a family. This classic production, how- ever, didn ' t happen at the snap of a finger. The first step to any play is the auditions, but after Director Terry Nelson selected her cast, practice began. For six straight weeks we practiced. Sometimes we didn ' t get out of there until midnight, admitted Junior Jeannie Col- lins, but I still loved it! The night of production final- ly arrived and cast members were transformed into a Grand Duchess, a Russian ballet in- structor and an internal revenue investigator to name a few. When asked about the play, Director Terry Nelson replied, The theme of the play was the American family. And I feel that ' s what the people involved with the play became — a fam- ily. During the practices we had our ups and downs but we stuck it out and that brought us together. Cast left to right: D. Lotz, D. Lamir- and, J. Cargile, S. Miller, C. Cooper, M. Beuoy, J.

Forces combine at Rhythms In their last performance as one, the Band and Choral De- partment combined forces and put on the fourth annual Spring Rhythms. The successful event took place on two nights at the Y.H.S. auditorium. Starting off the show was the Concert Band, under the direction of first year instructor Mr. Mickey Stisher. The band played some real- ly great songs. Usually people think of high school bands play- ing songs their great-grandpar- ents might know, but the music our band plays is really up to date, commented Junior An- gle Arthur when asked about the show. The Choral Department with its three sections: Swing, Inc., Tiger Connection and the Mo- dernaires, displayed their tal- ents on stage also. A number entitled, Fanta- sy was produced by the Swing, Inc. which contained special choreography effects according to Swing member Carol Cooper. What a Day was the Tiger Connection ' s performance number. The Modernaires did a little song and dance to the 60 ' s favorite, Don ' t Cry Out Loud. After the show was over and the excitement had come to a conclusion, the performers de- cided not to end it there. As a tradition, the members went for a bite at Shakey ' s Pizza Parlor and took in a midnight movie. With a little help from Sophomore Laura Adams and her talent at the French horn, the band sounded profes- sional at Spring Rhythms.

Beep! Yes? The Magna Carta was signed in 1778. I ' m sorry, but that ' s not the answer I ' m provided with here. Okay, next question ... Yorktown ' s Skill Bowl team consisted of 16 participants, broken down into an A and a B team. Members then trav- eled to the six other area high schools to compete in a variety of subject areas. This was the first year that Skill Bowl was added to the extracurricular ac- tivity schedule at the high school. For the varsity meets, each team submits 50 questions put together by the sponsors from each team. Such questions must cover language arts, so- cial studies, math, science, art Sharing answers during a Skill Bowl meet are Juniors Susan Ganion and Scott Brassart. and music. Yorktown ' s Skill Bowl Spon- sor Miss Carolyn Lucas feels that the Skill Bowl ' s arrival has been both enjoyable and frus- trating for the members. Miss Lucas admitted that the stu- dents started to rely on memori- zation of the answers after sev- eral meets. Practices for Skill Bowl were held two times a week before school in the morning, accord- ing to member Gary Taflinger, senior. Taflinger commented, From the practices we learned a lot that we did not know. In addition to Taflinger, Ju- nior Scott Brassart replied, Skill Bowl was a conflict with my swim practices in the morn- ing, but it was beneficial be- cause Skill Bowl made you think faster since you had to an- swer quickly. Will Skill Bowl be back next year? According to Miss Lucas, We will definitely be more suc- cessful next year. Skill Bowl 73 Choir clowns around Variety Show ' 83 proved suc- cessful as the theme Clownin ' Around amused the audiences on the April 28 and April 29 per- formances. Many fun-filled acts were part of the show, along with the interruptions of P.T. Barnum, Senior Tom Weilant, and the Ring Master, Junior Dean Ja- derston, to distribute prizes. Acts such as the Tootsie Re- port, Man on the Flying Tra- peze, Magician, and Short People were performed along with many musical numbers which included popular songs. Of course the planning and preparation of the Variety Show involves many long hours of practice to produce satisfac- tory results. Stage Manager Senior Londa Shively comment- ed, It ' s a lot of hard work, but I think it was one of the best ever! My name is Chubby, expresses Senior John Cargile during the Variety Show. Singers abound at the Variety Show as demonstrated by Junior Amy Good- paster, Senior Kathy Swinsick, Sopho- more Todd Walker and the choir par- ents. 74 Variety Show Short people Freshman Hinda Mitch- ell, Junior Merae Daniel and Freshmen Jenni Shaw and Nanci Sears rock to the music of the song Short People.

After going through a photo session with your mom, you ' re off to an evening of dance, mu- sic, games and fun sometimes known as the Junior-Senior Prom. This year, the 1983 Prom was held at the Sheraton Inn in An- derson with a live band playing the tunes. The theme Just You and I was sung by Swing Choir members Bret Cook and Melis- sa Beuoy. Prom Queen Cindy Keller was accompanied in a spotlight dance by her court of Liz Snider, Jane Starsky, Laurie Russel, Amy McCoy and their dates. But the excitement didn ' t end there. The Post-Prom, organized by the parents, contained such activities as a casino room, free pizza, use of the swimming pool, and a movie room. When the evening comes to its conclusion and the early morning hours begin to take over, you think back and realize that it was a night to remember. As you walk in the door from your big night, there ' s mom asleep on the couch, camera in hand. Put your head on my shoulder could have been the theme for these prom couples.

Class officers and top two academi- cally in the Class of 1983 are Todd Tay- lor and Scott Ferguson, who addressed members of their class on the past and the future. Dr. Jerome Secttor, princi- pal, also spoke to the class during com- mencement ceremonies in Emen ' s Auditorium.

' The End is Here 9 The end has finally come for he graduating class of 1983 as he commencement ceremony it Emen ' s Auditorium conclud- ed the seniors ' high school ca- eer. Many different features pro- ided a changed atmosphere at :ommencement. Changes in- :luded the addition of gold obes for the Honor Society nembers, among the tradition- il green robes for the guys, and he white robes for the girls, rhe administration chose to wear black robes, rather than vhat had originally been worn )ver the previous years. Another difference in the rommencement exercises this ear was the absence of a guest speaker, which is usually a min- ister. Principal Dr. Jerome Sect- tor commented that the reason for omitting the minister was to provide an atmosphere which involved the graduating class more. Dr. Secttor stated this at a senior class meeting to ex- plain commencement to all sen- iors. The student speakers includ- ed Todd Taylor, valedictorian, and Scott Ferguson, salutatori- an. Todd and Scott are also class officers with Todd the sec- retary and Scott the vice presi- dent of the senior class. Commenting on his speech during commencement, Scott Ferguson replied, I think it made my parents proud, and I was really glad to have this op- portunity to speak in front of a large crowd. Scott spoke on success dur- ing his speech and Todd spoke of the past years during high school. The combined choirs pro- vided music which included the songs, All the World, and How Do We Say Goodbye? Senior choir members Damon Brown, Melissa Beuoy, Londa Shively and Eric Henderson sang a quartet number titled Everybody Has A Dream. Picking up graduation robes in an- ticipation for May 27 are Seniors Julie Buck, Carla Snodgrass and Cindy Kel- ler.

Nobody has ever really thought k 0, about Yorktown High School as be- V J «4 mg a world champion powerhouse in sports-because wearen ' t AYork- town swimmer has never won a medal at the Olympics, nor has a wrestling or girls ' volleyball squad ever brought home a state title. But if you dig a little deeper, you might see some athletic accomplishments the average person would overlook. Coach Steve York and the boy ' s tennis team might not compete at Wimbledon over the summer, but after compiling a four-year record of 49 wins and only 11 losses, a lot of people found out that Yorktown ' s netters are no pushover. Finding a successful combination seemed to be an impossibility this year for Bob Harrold ' s boy ' s basketball team, but after turning a horrendous 2-8 start into a 10-12 season finish, the squad showed that having a winning record isn ' t the only way to earn respect. And finally, who would have thought that a small country school with less than 800 students would have 12 of its 17 athletic teams turn in winning slates for the 82-83 year? When someone views the surface of the YHS athletic program, they see an average-looking county sports school. What the person doesn ' t see are the many personal achievements and team accomplishments that make sports at Yorktown not what you might expect. Going through a lot of pain is an everyday task for weight lifters as Junior Gary Johnson demonstrates the effort needed to make a lift. Eat the ball! Senior Todd Conklin and Junior Tony Brown head a hustling pack of Tigers to put heavy pressure on a Southside Rebel. Although the contest was close, the Tigers dropped the game by 3 points. t 84 Sports 3 ■ l r '  • (IHD HTV COOTDHII IHomecomingwictory over Soutnside comestrueM Football Strike, WHAT!? They can ' t do that, what will we do on weekends? This strike wasn ' t true for the Yorktown Tigers as they finished the season with a record of 7-3, a complete turn around from the pre- vious year. Highlighting the Tigers year was the Homecoming victory over Muncie South- side. The score was 19-16 with running back Jay Neal making the three touch- downs. Another success occured when the Ti- gers beat Delta for the first time in five years at the Eagle ' s Homecoming. The players dedicated the game to Senior Rick Kelly who had suffered a knee injury and spent that night in the hospital. Head Football Coach Dave Tanner com- mented When we lost Rick 1 felt it was a big loss to the team. We had to make adjust- ments and put players in that weren ' t ex- perienced for that position. After the game, two busloads of Tiger football players traveled to the hospital and waited while Coach Tanner and three team captains: Seniors John Whitenack, Steve Wuthrich, and Randy Rhoades presented the game ball to Rick. But that wasn ' t the end of the victory celebration. A fire truck had met the buses and escorted the team through town and back to the high school, where over 500 anxiously awaiting fans were there to greet the winners. Senior Mitch Marlow boasted, Every game this year was like our previous home- comings. The spirit was the best the school has ever had. The Football Booster Club which consist- ed of many concerned Tiger fans, also con- tributed to this year ' s football spirit. One example of the Boosters spirit came during the game against Delta. At a tense mo ment in the contest, the fans broke into a wild chorus of cheers as an airplane flashing Love to Munch them Eagles flew by. It ' s not what you might expect for mem- bers of our football team to appear on the Channel 13 Sports News, but they did. Jay, John and Jesse Neal were interviewed by WTHR for their performance in the first game of the season against Winchester. Each brother made at least one touchdown. The Neal brothers were also pictured in the October edition of Sports Illustrated in the column Faces in the Crowd. This year the Tigers had a chance to ad- vance to Indiana State playoffs for the first time in Tiger history. All they had to do was to beat Pendleton Heights in the final game. Coach Tanner stated, The team was too play-off conscientious. They overlooked the Pendleton game, their minds were thinking about the play-off excitement not about the game itself. The Tigers lost the game 9-6 and their hopes of advancing to play-offs disap- peared. For the first time in gridiron history a player was named to the All State team, Senior running back Jay Neal. Nominations for All State went to Junior Jeff Barr. Aca- demic All State went to Seniors Todd Tay- lor, John Whitenack, and Scott Ferguson. During the ' 82 season, four players made All Conference. They were Seniors Richard Green and Jay Neal, Juniors Jeff Barr and Robert Scott. Honorable Mention went to Seniors Steve Wuthrich, Randy Rhoades, and John Neal. The awards received at the Football Ban- quet went to Steve Wuthrich, Mental Atti- tude; Most Valuable: Jay Neal, offensive back; John Whitenack, defensive back; Richard Green, offensive linemen; Randy Rhoades and John Neal, defensive linemen. The Head Hunter Award was received by John Whitenack. The Booster Scholarship Award was giv- en to the most valuable senior, Jay Neal. Asst. Coach Dave Lewis summed up the season by saying, This was the first year that a winning attitude was achieved. I think the season was most successful. This season set the ground works for future years in football. VARSITY FOOTBALL Winchester W 50 — 13 Eastbrook W 33 — Alexandria w 20 — 14 Mt.

Rick injured his knee during practice at the first part of the season. He was unable to participate in the rest of the ' 82 football season. Consulting other coaches is Head Football Coach Dave Tanner, as he contemplates the errors made during a previous play. Another Tiger Touchdown, is executed by All State Running Back Jay Meal, who has compiled a record breaking number of touchdowns for the tiger team. Varsity Football 87 Pain is a part of the game as it is experienced by Freshman Matt Rosinski in their battle against East- brook. The Tigers defeated the Panthers by 36 points. Practicing to allude his opponents, Freshman Run- ning back Grant Zgunda moves down the field, gaining stamina for his next game. Reserve Freshman Football CflflTDllll rjesnmer utscore DDonen oponents Hard work and dedication are two neces- sities for a winning season. Another vital part is practice. Practice as they say makes perfect. But practice time is not always available. The reserve football team finished the season with a 2-4 record that was deceiving, as the Tigers showed a lot of work and dedication. The essential part missing was the practices. With only two reserve prac- tices, which were held on Saturdays, the JV squad just wasn ' t able to put it all together. The record doesn ' t show the ability the :eam had. stated Sophomore Greg Apple- jate. As Most Valuable Player for the team, pplegate also commented, The Reserve ust didn ' t have enough practices. We didn ' t even know who would be on our earn for the next game because of the var- sity. This is a problem on the reserve level because some of the JV players also play n the varsity level regularly. If the player jets in three quarters on varsity, he doesn ' t jet to play reserve. Coach Dave Lewis commented on the ieason The guys really improved and earned a lot. Their record is deceiving. In the game against Mississinewa, the Ti- lers beat the Indians with 3 touchdowns ind two extra points. On the other hand the Freshman seemed o have a nearly opposite season from the Jeserve, as they reached a 6-1 record. Due to outstanding play by Grant Zgunda and Eric Jacobson, the team outscored their opponents by 90 points. Coach Ed Mirer had some things to say about the team. This team has a good atti- tude. They like to play football and they get along well together. But most of all they are confident in their abilities. And indeed they are, as Zgunda showed by receiving the Most Valuable Player award along with achieving leading rusher, receiver, scorer and being tied for the most tackles. He was followed closely by Jacob- son who was the second leading scorer and rusher. The teams only loss came from Muncie Southside. A team that was the Tigers first game and had much more experience then the freshman. They lost 14-6 in a hard fought contest. Coach Mirer reflected on the game by saying, We improved so much through the season that if we were to play South again we would beat them. The freshman co-captains were Danny Flynn and Eric Jacobson. Flynn summed up things by saying, We played well as a team. Resting during the Mississinewa game is Junior Mark McKibben. While resting McKibben usually thinks of ways he can help push his team onto victory.

I knew it would be a rebuilding year, ronfessed Varsity Volleyball Coach Trudy Iheatham, but with the talent I saw that he girls had, my expectations were high. Although the season sounds like it was ill disappointing, that wasn ' t the case in ieveral matches. One of the highlights was he Wes-del Invitational. The Tigers beat he Northside Titans 2 out of 3 matches, rhat win led them to runner-up in the tour- lament. They were defeated in the final natch against Pendleton, the 3rd ranked earn in the state. Another highlight occured when Stacy stout, junior captain of the team, made All Zounty and All Conference teams. Steph- inie Bean, junior, received honorable men- ion. The reserve team, although young, fin- shed a gratifying season with a record of 12-5. Second-year Coach Lori Marling com- mented, At the beginning of the season I didn ' t know what to expect, not that many girls tried out, she went on to say, I had to work with what I had, but it turned out to be a winning season as I had hoped. The Delta tournament, which included all the county teams, seemed to top off the season. It was the first tournament the re- serve team had ever participated in, and they received runner-up. The girls entered the tournament undefeated which really made the pressure build up. At the Fall Sports Banquet awards were given to Stacy Stout, Most Valuable Spiker; Jill Winkle, Most Valuable Defense; Laraine Snider, Most Valuable Setter and Liz Snider, Mental Attitude. The Most Valuable Reserve award was received by Julie Hoch- stetler. Concentration and the determination to win are the key words to a good volleyball player as Sopho- more Amy Garrett has proven to the Tiger team. Here she is. Head Coach Trudy Cheatham still enjoy ing the thrills and excitement of Girls Volleyball as she leads the Tigers for her 9th season. •I got it, No I got it, exclaimed Jill Winkle and Stacy Stout, junior co-captains, as they both attempt to save the ball in order to stop the other team from scoring a point against them. Girls Volleyball 91 fcirlfwzomplete best record mchool hisfonHl A remarkable season was displayed by the 1982 girl ' s swim team as they complet- ed their year with 15 wins and 1 loss — the best record in Yorktown High School histo- ry- Traveling on to the sectional, the girls swam ' ' away with a 3rd place finish. A second place was neede d to qualify the en- tire team, but the 200 medley team, consist- ing of Sophomores Amy Brown, Amy McNeely, and Juniors Lisa Heath, Kris Ja- cobson, made state cut and the 400 free- style relay team of Jacobson, Heath, and Freshmen Pam Ober and Colleen Riggs placed second. This qualified both relays for state competition. In the state meet, the 400 freestyle med- ley team earned an 18th place finish be- cause of a starting block violation, but the 200 medley relay was disqualified. One of the swimmers who went to state was Sophomore Amy Brown who claimed, We really had outstanding team unity. The state meet was an especially good ex- perience and I think everyone had a lot of fun, too. Freshman Pam Ober agreed, It was an excellent swim season. Enthusiasm helped us through the rough times, and Coach Thomas was great. She was always there when we needed her. Freshman Diver Chris St. John stated, Sectional was exciting. The work was hard, but it paid off in the long run. In an outstanding season, equally out- standing times are nearly inevitable. As a second year swimmer for Yorktown, Amy McNeely broke her own breaststroke re- cord by two hundredths of a second. The 200 medley relay team also set a school record by one half of a second. We had desire, a goal we set, Coach Tracy Thomas explained. They had the willingness to improve and be successful. We reached all of our goals. One of our sayings was ' working wins: wishing won ' t. ' They worked for this. Hard work was also a key to other victo- ries captured by the Tigers. A first place was their reward in the Yorktown Relays and a 1st place trophy was gained at the Classic Athletic Conference meet. The only loss of the year was to Ander- son High School. A possible cause of this defeat was given by Coach Thomas, An- derson had quality plus quantity, where we had only quality. Brown prepares herself for competition medley relay.

They are one of he hardest working teams I ' ve ever had. The varsity team wound up their season ith an excellent record of 13 wins and only losses. These losses were to ranked chools, Anderson Highland and Anderson ligh School. Senior Brian Thise remarked, I think ev- ryone contributed to the team ' s success, nd everyone had the winning attitude, hat ' s why we were so tough. Thise made ll-conference as an individual player and he dynamic duo of Jeff Davis and Dean laderston made all-conference doubles. Coach York boasted on the results of the team. I was very pleased with the way the season came out. The reserve team com- pleted their year with a near perfect record of 11 wins and only one loss. He continued by saying that the team effort was stronger this year than in the past, especially with Tennis is a good racket to get into, — Jeff Hunter the number 2 doubles team. Reflecting on his tennis success with his partner Jeff Davis, Dean Jaderston cited, It (the success) was due mainly to the fact that we really work well together. The most valuable player award was giv- en to Brian Thise; the mental attitude to Jeff Stout and the honorable mention for conference to Jeff Stout and Kraig Schmottlach. Coach York showed his pride and confi- dence in the team by saying, It ' s quite an accomplishment for a team of this size to have the ability to play with anyone in the state — but I think we could have. The team members also had a great deal of pride in themselves. This year ' s team came together quicker than any other team I ' ve played on. We never had any conflicts and everybody backed each other during the year, stated Senior Damon Brown. A backhand crunch is demonstrated by Junior Jeff Stout.

The team finished 6th out of the 12. The girls were up against some of the toughest competitors in the state. I was not disappointed in the girls; all I ex- pected was for them to do the best they could, stated Coach Dunn. One highlight of the season was winning the Classic Athletic Conference title for the 9th time out of the past ten years. This year for the first time, however, that CAC victo- ry was not achieved on the home course at the Muncie Elks, but rather at the Jay County Country Club. Ami Barlow, senior, stated, Winning at home is always great, but when you can go to a new course and still win you feel that you ' ve achieved something special.

The 1982 cross country team didn ' t always win, but the effort was still put forth by all the runners. Individual achievement was attained by three-year Harrier Steve Clouse in the coun- ty meet when he slashed the school recor d oy 29 seconds, running the five kilometer :ourse in 16 minutes, 22 seconds. He con- :inued in good form at the Anderson Sec- onal, placing 8th out of 91 varsity runners, qualifying him for regional competition. Cross country Head Coach Charlie Dwen, who has led the Tiger team for the sast 15 years, commented, This year ' s earn didn ' t have a lot of depth ... no one lad a lot of experience (with the exception )f Mark Scholer and Steve Clouse.) Mr. Owen also stated that this year ' s team was young and this season served as a rebuilding year for the team. Sophomore Steve Hellman agreed, Our team was lacking in experience this year. We only had two seniors, one junior and four sophomores running varsity. ' The best thing about cross country is the great feeling I get after running a good time. Mark Scholer The varsity finished the season with 22 wins and 35 losses. In the county meet, the team placed 5th out of 6 teams participat- ing. Returning varsity lettermen this year were Seniors Steve Clouse and Mark Scholer and Sophomore Joe Dee. Other members of the team were Junior Bret Goodpaster and Sophomores Craig Ayers, Steve Hellman and Dave Sissom. Bret Goodpaster summed up the year by saying, The record shows that we didn ' t have a good year, but we had a lot of fun and gained a lot of experience. Chuck Newman, reserve cross country coach, stated, The reserve team was com- posed of all first year members, and several sophomores out for the first time, which was a contributing factor to our losses. They finished their season with four wins and seven losses. On the reserve team, the top runners were Craig Ayers, who was moved up to varsity, Brian Luke and Ron Phelps, all of whom are sophomores. 9- - +■ l.

It ' s exciting when you hear the crowd roar after you make the shot. Entering the 1983 Muncie Sectional, the Tigers drew the Cowan Blackhawks in the opening round. The odds looked pretty good as Coach Bob Harrold commented, We beat Cowan in the beginning of the season by 18 points and by that time had Harrold and the gang discuss the strategy for the next quarter during the County Tourney when they faced the Cowan Blackhawks. Reaching for the sky, well, at least the goal is Junior Tony Brown as he attempts to rack-up a couple more points for the Tiger team to lead them to a win. won more games than they had, so the odds favored us to win. The Tigers proved the oddsmakers cor- rect by beating the Blackhawks 65-59 in a hard fought contest. Now the Tigers had to face the Muncie Southside Rebels in the 2nd round. In the first half of the game the score was close as the Rebels had a tough battle to go into the locker room with a 32-28 lead. Going into the final quarter the score was 45-44 with South ahead. The Tigers made a gallant try to get back into the game, but their efforts were unrewarded as they lost a 58-52 deci- sion. The Yorktown Varsity Basketball team finished the 82-83 season with a 10-12 re- cord.

The high point of the season was win- ning the Freshman City Tournament, commented Freshman Coach Chuck New- man. Coach Newman ' s explanation of suc- cess for the Tigers is as stated, Our team possessed all the physical advantages — size, quickness, talent. We had an aggres- sive defense and our bench strength was very good. I kept telling this team that they ' d never realize how good they could be; but I think, looking back I ' ll come to appreciate just how good they were! The Reserve team wrapped up a stun- ning season also, with a final tally of 15 wins and 3 losses. I think we had one of the best reserve teams in the area. It was a great season because we won and got along so well to- gether, claimed Junior Bret Goodpaster. Coach Baldwin is a great coach, too, he added. Goodpaster apparently was not the only one who felt the team ' s support, Our first loss was actually a great experience for us. We all helped to cheer each other up which pulled the team closer and gave us confi- dence in each other, Sophomore Ron Weaver cited. Sophomore Greg Applegate reasoned, We knew each other well enough to antici- pate each others moves. Most of us have been together since middle school and that ' s enough time to get to know someone really well. Coach Baldwin gave us a lot of confi- dence. Without the coach ' s confidence, a team can have excellent potential and nev- er show it. We had everything going for us and we carried it out, stated Sophomore Steve Small. We also tied Mr. Baldwin ' s record for wins in a season and we were his first team to win a triple overtime game. FRESHMAN AND RESERVE FROSH Reserve Basketball — Row 1: G. Applegate, B.

The Eagles have the ball and a four point lead. After trailing twenty points early in the third quarter, the Tigers have come roaring back into the game. Now it seems like the Tigers won ' t win the Delaware County Tourney, but their second half charge will long be remembered. In that game a county record was almost broken by Stephanie Bean, junior, who scored a total of 27 points to help the team to their comeback. She missed the record by one point. First-year Varsity Basketball Coach Bren- da White admitted, Our slow start in the County Tourney hurt us — but those things are to be expected from a young, inexperi- enced team. Our talent made the game close in the second half. At Sectional, the girls beat Burris by 9 points in the first game. The next day, they were well on their way to a second win against the County Champion Delta Eagles. Earlier in the season, Yorktown was beaten by the Eagles by 4 points. Delta was fa- vored to win, but Yorktown proved this as- sumption wrong when the Tigers clipped the Eagles 44-40. The final game pitting Northside against the Tigers arrived. Fol- lowing a close first half, the Titans surged ahead in the final two quarters to hand Yorktown a 58-40 defeat. At the end of the season, the Tigers re- cord was 9 wins and 8 losses. The Reserve team pulled out a 10 — 5 season. Dave Parker, reserve basketball coach, expressed, I was very pleased with the performance of the reserve team this year. They worked hard and played together as a team. Receiving All-Conference for the Tigers were Sophomore Tracy Etchison and Ju- nior Stephanie Bean.

The 400 free relay also captured a first place at Delta in the same conference. Continuing their streak, the tankers placed 3rd at Sectional. Sophomore Robert Werling was the only 1st place winner to qualify for State, but a new state regulation allowed the 400 free relay of Senior Andy Grim, Juniors Doug Fullenwider, Brad Hicks, John Rosson, and Sophomore Rob- ert Werling to compete. Werling finished 25th place with a time of 22.88 in the 100 butterfly and the relay finished 24th with a time of 3.26 at the state meet, despite the fact that Grim broke his hand in an earlier practice. Summing up the Tiger team, Andy Grim stated, We were just like a family. State was an exciting experience and we all had a good time, asserted Junior John Rosson. The state meet was a good experience because we all learned a lot about dedica- tion and the will to win, added Sophomore Bret Yarborough. The will to win paid off, as Mr. Ettl point- ed out, everyone dropped in times throughout the season.

Most of them would have been starters too, continued Coach Ingermann. This appeared to be the case, as the grapplers rounded out the year with a record of 0T0. Although the record wasn ' t desirable, Yorktown produced some winners at Coun- ty. Gary Johnson grappled his way to a 2nd place. 3rd place winners included Tiger Okeley, Mike Weilant and Mark Reno. The Tigers also captured a pair of firsts at Sectional by Tiger Okeley and Gary Johnson. Mike Weilant received a second place. This qualified all three for Regional, where Gary Johnson placed second and ad- vanced to semi-state. The most valuable player award was giv- en to Junior Gary Johnson. Other honored juniors were Tom Neal, Most Improved and Tiger Okeley, Best Mental Attitude. Troy Sissom was awarded for being the Out- standing Senior and Mike Weilant claimed the Outstanding Freshman award along with the Most Quick Wins. When questioned about the losses, Inger- mann reasoned, In any sport you can look for improvement. We needed to improve. Our next two years should be exceptionally strong. Stating his overall opinion of wrestling, Junior Tom Neal asserted, I think that wrestling is the best sport because you ' re one on one with your opponent and no one else can help you. You have to push yourself to the utmost limits that your body can withstand, is how Rodney Morrow described a good wrestling goal. The winning team isn ' t always the hardest working one. — Tiger Okeley The most exciting part of wrestling for me was making it to semi-state, was how Junior Gary Johnson summed up his wres- tling season. Some views were deep but Freshman Tom Kemp ' s ideas were simple. Being for- tunate enough to be able to wrestle as a freshman was the best thing about wres- tling for me, he cited. Manipulating his partner to a helpless position. Ju- nior Gary Johnson shows his aggressive style that got him to semi-state. In a desperate situation.

To a few little girls, dreams turn into reality as they become members of the 1982-83 cheerleading squad. According to Senior Tracy Dillon, It takes dedication and work . . . there ' s a lot of sweat behind the glamour, but there is something that keeps you coming back for more. The sweat started early as both the boy and girl Yorktown cheerleaders attend- ed summer camp at Purdue University. While at camp, the Varsity cheerleaders re- ceived the distinction of being the most im- proved squad. Additionally, the Junior Var- sity squad were named District Champions, the highest award given at camp. We learned new cheers and different mounts at camp, it also helped us to work better with the guys. It was worth all the time and work, stated Senior Cindy Keller. In addition to camp, the cheerleaders sponsored fund raisers and held practices throughout the summer. The cheerleaders responsibilities ranged from decorating the team and fan buses, planning pep sessions, to hosting breakfasts and teas for the differ- ent athletic teams. The captains for the 1982-83 squads were Seniors Cindy Keller and Steve Clouse, Varsity; Sophomore Julie Fallis Re- serve, and Freshman Jana Barr, the mascot was Senior Lynn Miller. Tiger alternates for this year were Junior Becky Southerland and Senior Scott Fergu- son. Lynn Miller, Senior, summed up the year by saying, I ' ve enjoyed trying to do new things as mascot, like wearing a head band and sunglasses to the Homecoming game and stomping on blue and gold eagle feathers in the middle of the basketball court. That made it worth all the while.

The second game proved to be even more of a success as they beat Wes-del 17-2. But the final game turned out to be a disappointment; they lost 12-3 to the Delta Eagles. The varsi- ty team received 2nd in the County Tour- ney held at the home of the Blackhawks. The Tiger baseball team completed the 1983 season with a 16-10 mark, 5 of the 10 losses were by a one run loss. Leading the team in number of hits was Juniors Jeff Stout and Scott Francoeur. Senior Mitch Marlow led the team in RBI ' s. The reserve baseball concluded the sea- son with a 5-7 tally. For the first time since 1976 the J-V team beat the tough Anderson Highland team. Allen Hahn, freshman reserve baseball team member, expressed his feelings about the season by saying, I think our record Varsity Baseball — Row 1: S. Craig, B. Goodpas- ter, J. Stout, S.

An ambitious season was complemented by the new additions added to the Yorktown baseball program.

Usually a track team will have a few problems with injuries. Sometimes a track team will have quite a few problems with injuries. But seldom do injuries strike a team as severly as Yorktown ' s girl runners were hit this year. During this ' 83 season the Tigers suf- fered a high number of injuries ranging any- where from shin splints to pulled muscles to the pain that the members achieved at the daily practices. The season wasn ' t a total loss however as the girls compiled with a 7-8 mark. Girls ' track coach, Dave Lewis, stated, This year we were a young team; out of the 30 members there were only two sen- iors. He went on to say, It was a pleasure working with these athletes this season; es- pecially the seniors. They proved what could be accomplished through hard work and dedication. Two records were broken this season, both by Senior Laura Mark, 4 year track runner. In the County Tourney Laura broke the 100 meter dash record with the time of 12.87 seconds. The record was previously held by Rhonda Bell in 1977 at 12.9 sec- onds. Laura received first in the 100 and 200 meter dashes in the County. The Tigers finished 3rd out of the 6 teams. Two relays, 1600 and 800 meter runs, acquired 2nd place in the Tourney. The other record Laura set was at Sec- tionals in the 400 meter dash, her time was 6 1 .38 seconds. The record in 1 976 was held at 62 seconds by Melissa Cox. To sum up the season Sophomore Kelly Underwood commented, Overall the year was good but sometimes 1 wasn ' t too sure if we would make it; but we did and it paid-off in the long run.

The 6-3-1 record may not seem outstand- ng, although some outstanding events did Dccur. First year track member Mike Coo- 3er set a new freshman school record in the 300 run, while Senior Jay Neal set one in :he discus. Also the team finally defeated Delta — :he first time in six years. This meet was lot only important for this reason, but also secause it marked the 100th victory for Coach Charlie Owen while here at York- town. Equally outstanding, if not more so, was Jay Meal and Jim Hood ' s qualification for regional in the discus and quarter mile run, respectively. Not only were these facts outstanding, but equally unexpected. This season was much stronger than we expected. It was not due to any one person; it was a team effort. It was due to both the unexpected upper- classmen who joined and to the upperclass- men ' s fine performances. We were basical- ly strong in everything except maybe the longer distance races, stated Coach Owen. This was my first year in track and I am really glad that I joined. It was a great exper- ience and a deviation from the norm. It also got me in good shape. All I can say is that it was different, but it was worth the effort 1 put into it, admitted Junior Mark Harris. Summing up the 1983 year in varsity track, Mark Scholer, team captain, stated, I was really proud of our team this year; because we were really competitive, de- spite the fact that we were such a young team. Reach for the sky is Senior Jay Meal ' s motto and method for throwing shot put as he demonstrates in a meet against Daleville. A straining leap is accomplished by Sophomore Bob Ellis during CAC which was held at Yorktown again this year.

I didn ' t think that this team could possibly com- pare to last year ' s, but they not only equalled last year ' s performance, but sur- passed it in the conference and sectional. I believe that the reason is because these guys don ' t put pressure on themselves. They just have a good time. Not only did the team have a good time, but they also did a good job. The varsity team ended their dual meet at 14-2, also winning the county meet and the sectional. I was pretty surprised that I was able to play varsity as a freshman. I had trouble Heading for ihe links is Junior John Rosson getting ready for a round during the home meet against Win- chester. A look of confidence is expressed by Junior Mark McKibben before he takei on a fairway shot to the green. with my mental attitude in the beginning, but as the season progressed, I became both mentally and physically apt, cited Randy Mercer who played varsity a few times during the season. Continuing the positive attitude, Junior linkster John Rosson remarked, If some- one had walked up to me a month ago and said that they thought we ' d win the section- al and go to regional, I would have laughed at them. But now we really look good! I don ' t think any of us expected this. 1 thought the season was a total suc- cess. I ' m really glad that 1 decided to play this year. Coach Bellar (Bear) helped me with my game and I was able to play varsity my first year. The guys were a lot of fun too, related Junior Eric McNeely. It ' s a great feeling to know that out of fifteen teams in the sectional, your team is good enough to underscore every one of them, explained Junior Mark McKibben when asked how he felt about his success. These guys knew what they had to do, and they got out there and did it. They played a smart game of golf — they thought their way through their games, concluded Bellar. 1 3 Boys ' Golf Boys ' Varsity Golf — First row: A. Bricker, R. Quirk, E. McNeely, K. Schmottlach, G.

The varsity team of one senior, two ju- niors and four sophomores pulled out of their season with a two win and eleven loss record, while the reserve won six matches and five losses. Although at times the girls became dis- appointed with their accomplishments and became somewhat frustrated, I detected no let-down in effort or desire at anytime, stated Girls Tennis Coach Steve York. The team as a whole just lacked the exper- ience, he continued. When a team loses ten of twelve players between seasons, a lack of experience is more than expected. Experience is important! We only had one senior on our team and she couldn ' t teach us experience, we had to live it, ex- claimed Junior Angie Arthur. Sophomore varsity member Kara De- Bord added, At least we can learn from our losses. By the end of the year we were tell- ing ourselves to bend our knees instead of Coach York having to tell us. We ' re beginning to gain the ability to anticipate our opponents. All we need is time and practice, DeBord continued. Coach York showed his optimistic view by saying, The general attitude was good. Add this to hard work and constant deter- mination and we can look forward to suc- cessful days ahead. Varsity Girls ' Tennis — Row 1: A. Arthur, S. Meyers, L. Snider. Row 2: C. Davis, K. DeBord, C.

None of the people you meet at Yorktown are the same. A YHS chemistry student has never dis- covered a miracle cure for the Asian Flu, nor has a Yorktown girl ever had Rick Springfield give a perform- ance for her 16th birthday party. This doesn ' t mean, however, that we haven ' t accomplished several things that make us stick out in a crowd. For instance, it isn ' t just every 80 pound freshman boy who would commit himself to studying the art of karate. But Andy Axsom, who is now a yellow belt, decided last year that it was time to stop being just a little kid. And how many schools can claim thatthey have a member of the All-American Flag Corp in their student body? Well, YHS Senior Deanne Blink makes Yorktown one of the few schools that can. Finally, it takes a special person to be accepted into the United States Military Academy atWestpoint, but it just goes to show you that Senior John Whitenack has the abilities that set him apart from the crowd. So even though we may not be ready to lay claim to a national president or a world reknown nuclear physicist, we have some people that know what they want and how to get it. These people are you and me, and we make life at Yorktown not what you might expect.

Fantasies fulfilled for Mr. Spurgeon Magic is the world of illusions and fan- tasy. Mr. Keith Spurgeon, Dean of Stu- dents, has been fulfilling these fantasies and doing illusions professionally for six years. It doesn ' t matter, I ' ll do wed- dings, funerals, anything. As a member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians, Mr. Spur- geon does shows at parties; for large groups, such as schools; and he even does some street magic, which is a show performed outdoors in the public. He became interested in magic as a child, by watching television and playing around with card tricks. Of course, his favorite magician is The Great Harry Houdini, but he also likes David Copper- field and Mark Wilson. Some illusions don ' t always go as planned. Once, when Mr. Spurgeon asked to borrow a handkerchief from an audience member, he received a used one. Mr. Spurgeon stated that his main goal is to entertain the audience. It gives me an excuse to get up on the stage and be funny. Mr. Spurgeon got his start in magic while still in college, when a banker wanted a magician for his daughter ' s party. Local Samurai Warrior Dean Spurgeon looks over the blueprints for a Chinese Wate r Torture Room. He also showed his acting ability when he starred in the teacher melodrama during the Christ- mas convocation.

Faculty vs Seniors The record book was demolished ac- cording to Faculty Softball Coach Chris Goodwin, who stated, Any evidence that we lost was destroyed. That loss was the 16-11 thumping the teachers took in the Second Annual Faculty vs. Seniors Soft- ball game. Trying to explain their five run loss, Mr. Chuck Newman, shortstop, admitted, Our hitting in general was poor. The Sen- iors were more organized this year than we were. Trying to compensate for the senior ' s eight run lead, second baseman Ed Mirer hit one out of three during the second annual Faculty vs. Seniors Soft- ball game. Controversy arose when equal rights in- filtrated the normally all male competi- tion. The teachers might have lost by an even larger margin, according to substi- tute catcher and Women ' s Lib advocate, Mrs. Terry Nelson, if it hadn ' t been for the two female additions to the team. Pickell agreed as he said that the two women (Nelson and second baseman Brenda White) hit and played as well as anyone. White commented, The preseason de- bates were the most fun. Next year I think the female faculty should play the Seniors and the men should be the cheerleaders. Susan Land — Bachelor of Science and Master of Art from Ball State University.

Gaylor turns Dungeon Master Walking down a long, dark corridor, wondering what might be around the next corner, may just be what is happening during a game of Dungeons and Drag- ons. Mr. Bruce Gaylor, along with a few Y.H.S. students and graduates play Dun- geon and Dragons once a week usually for ten to twelve hours. The longest Mr. Gaylor ever played at one time was eigh- teen hours straight. He has played for about a year and has reached the Master Level with his character, the Archer, Fighter, Magic User, Thief. He first started playing when some stu- dents suggested that he would probably be good at it and would like it. When asked why he likes the game, he said, Because it is always different and exciting, and because it stimulates my imagination. Imagination is the key to playing Dun- geons and Dragons, and the object is to survive. With the role of the dice you are ready to begin by creating a character, choosing from different races of humans, elves, and dwarfs. From there you use your imagination in developing their char- acteristics. One person is the Dungeon Master. He creates a world for the other players. The adventure begins by entering the world as the characters take over cities, conquer other races, or fight ar- mies, but watch out for that Basilisk! as you continue through your adventure. You never know what might be around the next corner or what lurks in the dark cor- ners of a cave in the land of the Ores, Goblins and Thieves. Never argue with the Dungeon Mas- ter, especially if it ' s Mr. Bruce Gaylor. Suzy Ober — Assistant Nurse. Jessie Odom — School Secretary and Treasurer.

Teresa Marie Logan — Drama Club 1 1 , Library Aide 1 1 , c ' Chubby ' at large My name is Chubby, states Senior John Cargile as he keeps Yorktown stu- dents in stitches with one of his many impressions. A beached whale, Bud, Skinny and Zit are a few of his favorites. John is active in Drama Club and has participated in the plays Thurber Carni- val in ' 79, Caught in the Villain ' s Web in ' 80, Heaven Can Wait in ' 81 , and he played the lead in Visit to a Small Plan- et in ' 82. John laughed about his first production, Thurber Carnival. I was the only freshman and was hog-tied 14 times to such things as trees, park benches, chandeliers, and posts; but I always managed to free myself. When students throughout the nation were selected to travel to Europe to play with Jazz Abroad, John was naturally chosen. In his modesty he claimed, How I got selected I ' ll never know! But everybody knows that John not only plays the piano in the school choir, but he also sings for musical productions and variety shows. He generously helps out students with their auditions. He ad- mits the auditions get a little hectic but in his own words, I wouldn ' t have it any other way. When asked why he gets so involved in dress days, John commented, I ' m crazy and I like to raise school spirit. I think Yorktown ' s a great school. To sum it all up, John Cargile jokingly boasts, I ' m great, what can I say. David Michael Lotz — Episode Staff 12, Broad- caster Staff 12, Drama Club 12, Radio T.V. Club 1 2.

Advertisements 147 Wheel of fortune stops at 1 million for Juniors What would you do if you were handed one million dollars in cash? The Episode staff surveyed 100 juniors to see just what they would do. Everything from Barb Ot- to ' s, A house in the Bahamas and Tom Selleck, to Johnny Dee ' s, A nice house in Westbrook for my mom, dad and Grandma, showed a wide sp an of student wishes. Although some of the purchases are pure fantasy there were some that you might not expect. Tom Neal would, invest my mon- ey in stocks and money market certificates and put the rest in the bank. Dean Jaderston disposed of his million by putting, about half or more in the bank. The rest of it would be used for a car, house, college education, and whatever else I want. Whatever else was left would be in- vested.

I want to be in control of food and make a lot of money too, was her reply. Now that most of the juniors have their license, the thing they need is a car. Doug Fullenwider would purchase, a Lambor- gini, because it ' s a sharp, fast car, and Lynn Rodriguez would purchase a, 1983 Porsche, for the same reasons. Stephanie Bean ' s choice of a 1983 Camaro was sim- ply because, I need a car to drive. Tony Brown had no priorities to the make, he just wants, a car to drive. All in all, The wants of the Juniors were almost the same. Carol Cooper ' s request was straight to the point. It was not elabo- rate or magnificant, she just plainly and simply wanted, Mr. America — Why not!

Everyone would like to make good grades, participate in a lot of activities and win awards in something they are good at. But could just anyone take the heat, the pressures and the responsibil- ities that go along with it? Junior Susan Ganion is just that type of person who can take the heat, handle the pressures and love the responsibil- ities. Susan participates in the Yorktown Tiger Marching Band and Concert Band. This year she is one of the drum majors for the band which is a responsibility she reall y loves. In her own words Susan states, It ' s not always fun, but if you want the band to be good you have to be able to take the heat. Susan loves music which is not only obvious because she is a drum major but also because she is a member of the all- state band, placed second in honors band and plays four different instru- ments. When Susan was asked what she en- joys most about her activities, she says, I like to perform and meet new people! Susan was voted the outstanding fresh- man and sophomore band student. She also made the All-State Marching and Concert Band and has a long list of first places at the Ball State and Solo and Ensemble Contest. Other activities she participates in are the German Club and the Skill Bowl Team. Susan also maintains straight A ' s except in Driver ' s Ed. she jokingly added. Susan most likes to spend her free time playing the piano, singing or spend- ing time with her family. In the future Susan plans on becoming a pediatrician in a major children ' s hospital. As far as continuing her hobby in music, she would like to play in an orchestra. How does Susan reach all of her goals? I push myself.

Inspired by a past football player, Kim and a friend had originally planned to try out to play on the football team. Coach Tanner made Kim a manager instead. Kim stated that they picked on her because she was the only girl working with the team. At first they didn ' t like me, but I did a lot for the team and now they respect me as a person. But she said it was different for wrestling. They accepted me better than the football players did at first because most the wrestlers were football players, and they were already used to me. Even though her duties are not earth- shaking, she does things like bring drinks to the players, set up practice equipment, and check to see if the play- Always a smile comes from Junior Kim Ellis, whether she is managing football, wrestling, help- ing with a float, she enjoys doing many things. ers ' equipment is right for the game.

The Sophomore class was asked this and they gave some very imaginative answers. Pat Benetar, so she could sing to me and give me the companionship I would need. — John Durbin I would like to be marooned with my boyfriend because he is the one person that I would be able to tolerate over a long period of time. — Julie Kennedy I would want to be marooned with 500 pounds of macaroni and cheese due to the fact that this is my favorite food. — Charmaine Balsley A beautiful girl in a grass skirt with a coppertone tan. — Mike Fuller Loni Anderson and no sisters. — Steve Hellman Time magazine so I will be up on the time with Time. But make sure I get my three free books and the year in Time. — Robbie Quirk If I would get the lucky chance to be marooned, I would take my sun tan lotion and a beach towel, because I would get plenty of use out of them. — Candy Fogle The ideal island to be marooned on would have every need of a typical teenage girl including tons of guys, no parents and an excellent house! — Julie Hochstetler The Skipper, Mary Ann, Gilligan, Gin- ger, Professor, and the Howell ' s. Why? Be- cause they are funny and they make a good TV show. Besides, if they ' ve been on TV this long, surely it would be a good choice to be on an island. — Brad Holloway Sophomores Sour faces go along with the concentration and strength that it takes Sophomore muscle man Greg Stewart to successfully lift.

Sean has been playing the trombone in the band since fifth grade. When ques- tioned why he started, he replied, Actually it was the Lawrence Welk Show. He then explained Mom and Dad used to watch the show every now and then and I ' d see the trombones and thought it would be neat to learn how to play. He participates in approximately nine contests with the band each year. The best place the band has received so far was in the fall of 1982 when they placed fifth in the state. It was one of the greatest feelings I ' ve ever had, he admitted, We ' d worked so long and so hard to be able to make it to state. I think the thing I felt most was pride. Sean has also been entering Solo-Ensem- ble contests since sixth grade. Each time he has received first place. He entered his first solo in 1982 and received a first for that. Although he doesn ' t directly participate in sports he does help raise the spirit by playing in the Pep Band. He stated, We can play loud, and we seem to get the crowd fired up, or I hope so. One of the most embarrassing things that Sean remembers was during the 1981 Band Banquet. Mr. Wadman was introduc- ing the band and I was in back greasing up my slide. Right when he got to the part where he said, ' . . . and I ' m very proud of this band . . . , ' the slide slipped out of my hand and crashed down the risers. Sean hopes to be able to carry on his music career outside of high school. He added, If anything I would teach but music is a hard field to get into. Strike up the band. Sophomore band mem- ber Sean Williamson puts forth his all to keep in beat with the musical tempo along with the rest of the band.

Since one of Kurt ' s favorite hobbies is talking on the phone, he finds a little spare time to have a conversation with one of his many friends. Okay, when I go out to wipe a wet spot off the floor, cheer for me! insists two year varsity basketball manager Kurt DeBord. He ' s hilarious, exclaims Junior fan Kim Guinn, He ' s got a bubbling personal- ity and always cheers me up. I especially like it when Kurt and Greg Applegate go through poses for the Sears Catalogue, stated Junior Amy Hammers- ley. This King of Comedy who incidently moonlights as the Sophomore Class Presi- dent, ranks in the top of the academic stan- dards of the Sophomore class. Kurt really likes his sophomore year — except for the work. Kurt was also named recipient of the Hugo O ' Brian Award, given for leader- ship and scholarship, an award based on an essay. Kurt, however, is not all studies, as he likes to attend school dances — especially after we win the game, and spirit dress days as evicenced by his Punk Day dress. It (Punk Day) was really fun to get into, because my hair was like, real funky! Besides being active in school, Kurt en- joys moped riding, midnight movies, his church ' s youth group, talking on the phone, and jamming out. With jamming out as his favorite, Kurt calmly said, I love to do that. Besides all this, Kurt is also the other half of the only fraternal twins in the high school. Kurt and his sister, Kara, argue like all brothers and sisters do, but there is a different side to that. We get into argue- ments, but we are real close. I can confide in him with things that 1 wouldn ' t even say to my friends. I love the way he can get along with almost any body. He can just go up and start talking to any body with no problem, admitted Kara.

This year ' s freshmen class had a hard time deciding exactly whom they admire most. But after taking some time to think about it, each person finally decided upon someone they admire. Of course there are family ties: Mom. for being an example and for be- ing a Christian. — Kelly Schlagel My mother and father, because they are always telling me not to look down on my- self and to stick up for what I believe in. — Heidi Hamme Then there ' s always the stars: I most admire Tom Selleck, because with all his money and good looks; he doesn ' t smoke, drink, or use bad lan- guage. — Kris Kammerer Olivia Newton-John, cause she ' s done so much with her life and she ' s a great actress and singer. — Lisa Huffman Brian Abrell Jean Achtermann Faye Amburn Kelly Anderson Todd Eric Applegate Jimmy Astemborski Maria Michell Aul Andy Axsom Dawn Barber Paul Barney Jana Barr Brian Bartlett Brian Beard Mike Beaty Bryan Beeson Karen Bell Shelly Bell Michael Bemis Bryan Bennett David Blanch Debbie Blink Julie Bogg Doug Borror Connie Bousman Jeff Brantley Sandy Brewer Todd Bridgman John Bright Michelle Burton Mike Burton mmie Callahan Kent Campbell Shonda Campbell Carey Wendy Caron Believe it or not, but some people even admire teachers: I most admire Mr. Newman, because he stays up with the times and understands teenagers. I hope that I can change with the times like him. — Kris Jones Mrs. Keesling, I admire her because she has a lot of patience with us, the choir stu- dents, and is a very sweet person most of the time. — Tracy Walker Last but not least, there are the people who admire not one person in particular but admire traits in people: I don ' t particularly admire a certain per- son, but I do admire people who are kind and try their best at anything they do. — Lisa Rosson Plenty of time to talk while waiting to be shipped home on the buses after a long day of studies gives Freshman Regina Mills a chance to catch up on some of the latest gossip. : 4 Freshmen Oh, like totally different head!

It ' s fun being twins. It ' s something different, quoted Kelly Schlagel while her identical twin sister, Kathy, agreed. The sophomore twins are identical at first glance but after looking twice you can see little differences. Most people can ' t tell Kathy and Kelly apart. Even their parents and relatives have trouble telling them apart. In order to remedy this they just refer to the twins as Sis instead of trying to figure out who ' s who. Kathy and Kelly say their friends can tell them apart better than their parents can. Kathy and Kelly have two classes together in school and enjoyed the teach- er ' s confusion at the beginning of the year. Kathy and Kelly get along well togeth- er, like the same things and do just about everything together. Kelly said, We sometimes have misunderstandings but we seldom fight. The twins say that one advantage to having a twin is always having someone there to be with and talk to like on the first day of school. Kathy and Kelly like to dress alike sometimes for fun to fool people. Howev- er, their mom dressed them alike until they were in 5th grade and the twins begged her to let them dress differently. They also purposely got matching glass- es, which also makes it hard to tell them apart. Kelly and Kathy are twins by heredity. Their mother is a twin so she was very pleased at having twins. Both Kelly and Kathy hope to have twins. Kelly and Kathy get along well and have a lot of fun together. They also have a lot of fun fooling other people. Who else would you want for a sister and friend but someone just like you!?

I started taking pictures when 1 was eight years old and I haven ' t stopped being a ' shutterbug ' since. Brian Marsh, although only a fresh- man, is definitely a most welcomed member of the Episodestaff. We need- ed the help in photography and he lend- ed a helping hand, commented Angie McCartney, Sports Co-Editor. Being on staff created a challenge for me and I have tried to do the best I can and pro- duce quality, stated Brian. In 8th grade Brian had his first photo- graphs published in the Junior Jour- nal, a publication sponsored by Ball State students that includes all city and county Middle Schools. During the summer of 1982 Brian at- tended the National Journalism Work- shop at Ball State University. During the two weeks he was there he studied photo composition. He received an award for the Most Improved Photographer for those two weeks. Brian ' s second favorite hobby is sing- ing. He has been in choir for the last 5 years. Choir is something that I really enjoy. I like singing because it gives me a happy feeling and brightens my day. While many people were sun-bathing on the beaches of Daytona during spring break, Brian was visiting the countries of Japan and Korea. It was like I was dreaming when I got overseas, Brian admitted, because it was so different. He is looking forward to going back in 1988 to see the Olympics. Brian ' s main ambition in life is to be able to put his photography to use and become a professional photographer. Steady aim is what it takes to be a good photogra- pher as Freshman yearbook photographer Brian Marsh focuses in order to snap a picture.

Not to be outdone, Yorktown also has a couple of things in its favor — although they come in somewhat different forms. Who can deny the fact Mrs. Donna Daniel and Mr. Willard Cheatham are companion joggers, and that Mr. Bruce Gaylor and Mrs. Terry Nelson take pride in being rebels? And who hasn ' t wondered just what kind of schemes are being carefully planned by Mr. Chuck Newman and Mr. Chris Goodwin in the English ha between classes? Then there ' s always Freshman Pam Ober and Senior Rick Kelly — need we say more? Remember the Loud Family on Saturday Night Live? Our version is good friends Amy Hammersley and Kim Guinn, juniors, who can be heard in the cafeteria — while you ' re on the soccer field for gym class. The list wouldn ' t be complete without mentioning the two Pepsi ' s you can get for the price of one from the overworked pop machines — when you know the right technique, and the couple of overtimes that kept the Yorktown crowd in suspense at the football game against Anderson Highland. And you can ' t overlook the couple of Z ' s you try to catch in class or the couple of tardies that send you to the rubber room. ouple of friends, a couple of bucks, and a couple of laughs can add up to a lot of fun.
