Ypsilanti High School - Ypsi Dixit Yearbook (Ypsilanti, MI)

Text from Pages 1 - 208 of the 1971 volume:

Apathy dominated Ypsi High students this year. It stirred up many controversies and enabled small groups of concerned stu- dents to rise up and take over the ‘‘reigns of power’’ at YHS with relative ease. Disgusted and amazed that they could take over so easily, these small bands of class officers put their power to use in order to wake or frighten the students from their lethargic states. A cry of alarm arose from the faceless ranks of YHS students when they were faced with Jim Spike’s constitu- tion, along with various other actions and proposals. The light began to shine in their hazy minds and they realized their negli- gence in voting and in getting involved in student government. A communications breakdown also added to the problem. The posting of announcements proved futile as many students didn’t take time to read them and the announcements over the Public Address system seemed to fall on dead ears as many students preferred to talk through them. Dissatisfaction on the part of the officers and the students led to a general disillusionment and questioning of student government’s relevancy. academics activities .... athletics seniors — CN Aer ree te D i tealin as adaell o YHS’ Big Three Heavy financial pressures were perhaps the most serious con- cerns this year’s administration faced. With a curriculum demanding a wide variety of individual expenditures, Mr. Grimes was faced with the difficult job of figuring out the budget, making cuts wherever they could not be avoided, and then informing each department that they had to work within a lim- ited budget. Increased enrollment caused Mr. Moore, assistant principal in charge of attendance, and Mr. Meuller, assistant principal in charge of discipline, several headaches. A new schedule of classes was put into operation this year, eliminating study halls and creating the 6th hour activity period. Although this schedule presented a bit of strain on teachers and students alike, the activity period proved to be a big success. The two separate bus runs allowed students to remain in the building after school to take part in any sports or projects they chose. Mr. Grimes, opposite page, looks over comments he wishes to make, preparing to address the student body through the PA system. Below, Mr. Moore, and Mr. Meuller discuss some sched- uling procedures.

Such courses as Negro Literature and Advanced Creative Writing were newly introduced, while Drama and Play Production were combined into one class.

The classes were divided, half of Mr. Schmidt’s classroom traded places with half of Mr. Althouse’s class. Imaginary political parties were formed. Party conventions were held and party platforms were drawn up. The campaigns were fierce and elections were held. Mr. Schmidt and Mr. Althouse feel that the exercise was a good expe- rience for their students. Fine Arts The Fine Arts Department is a very important part of our curriculum. Through the Arts, stu- dents learn to express feelings and to appreciate the various forms of beauty that can be found everywhere. Through music, many gain pleas- ure and enjoyment. Classes in art provide for physical expression through painting, sculp- ture, ceramics and other art forms. Mr. Racine Mr. Skinner and Mr. Matis observe Lee Osler’s painting skills. Science and Mr. Buccos, department head, top picture; Mr. R. Wilbanks, Mrs. Klark, and Mr. Kielwasser, middle picture; and (left to right) Mr. Bashier, Mr. Taylor, Mrs. Frye, Mrs. Bryce, Mrs. Lawrence, and Mrs. Beuche, bottom picture. Mathematics Due to a lack of funds, the science and math departments were combined this year. Mr. Buccos was placed at the head of the depart- ment. Faced with crowded classrooms and lack of space, they found it hard to add on to the curriculum. The department felt the pinch of the money shortage in the school system, as did many of the other departments. Mrs. Mooar, top p icture; bottom picture.

They have the opportunity to improve their study skills as well as acquire personal typing ability. The stu- dents participating in the Cooperative Education program get practical, on-the-job experience. Physical Education The physical education department offered a well-rounded program last spring. Courses included: gymnastics, swimming, track, field hockey, football, soccer, basketball, volleyball, and wrestling. There were three new members to the physical education staff this year: Mrs. Pare, Mr. Simpson, and Mr. Bradley.

Members of her court include: Senior princesses (top) Michelle Ouellette and Judy Wolf; Junior princesses (middle) Nancy Parks and Levada Reid; Sophomore princesses (bot- tom) Dawn Hoobler and Neci Hawkins. Angela’s ANGELA BARFIELD REIGNS OVER HOMECOMING first duty as queen was to announce the results of the float competition. Seniors captured first place with their ‘‘Double Feature’’ float. Junior’s ‘‘Easy Rider”’ took second place and Sophs came in third with ‘“‘A Fist Full of Zebras.’’ Highlights of Homecoming Week included Nationality Day, Music Day, Snack Day, the traditional parade from YHS to Shadford field, and an abundance of posters and school spirit. The YHS Student Council plunged into the year’s activities by preparing for Homecoming Week. This year’s Homecoming was termed a success, as the Council initiated special days during the week, and sponsored a parade and dance to add to Homecoming excitement. To function more effectively as a representative body, the Student Council, as a result of the great increase in student enrollment, increased the number of representatives to ten. They also organized the standing committees for the rest of the year, and a meeting was held in order to determine SC priorities and goals for the year. The Council sponsored many well-attended dances, and held fund-raising activities to help needy groups. Kim Heumann and Pete Kingston look over agenda Marilyn Opland and Bill Shepard find the Student Council Meeting amusing. ® Ist Row: Cheryl Lundy, Emma Hawkins, Mollie Guantlett, Gary Court—Treas., Pete Kingston—Pres., Mr. Moore, Angela Barfield—Vice-Pres., Carolyn Underwood—Sec., Mignon Clayborn, Shelley Franklin 2nd Row: Tom Byrum, Dave Byrum, Bill Shepard, Brenda Smith, Denise Lewis, Wanda Greene, Mari- lyn Opland, Norma Gillis. 3rd Row: LaFerne Duckworth, Molly Power, Vanessa Etchison, Julie Beutler 4th Row: Barry Fancett, Kim Heumann, Dean Martelle, Leah Bass, Steve Kerr, Krista Wheatley, Connie Milligan, Marshall Brown, Brad Shepherd, Marcy Ouellette, Karen Weiss Steve Kerr served as this year’s Homecoming Chairman (right).

The number of students was increased this year by six, and Francine Patillo, a junior, was elected chairman. The Forum has been involved in such issues as student rights in relationship to the faculty and administration, exam and building schedules, the deplorable condition of the lavatories, and general problems facing the school and com- munity.

No longer was the NHS just an honors group, but an active, functioning club, in the real sense of the word. This seemed only natural, as the group was sup- posed to be composed of students who were outstanding in scholarship, as well as in leadership. Under the compe- tent leadership of Mrs. Trim, the club’s advisor, the group was able to ‘‘get it together’’ and start functioning as a real service group. Officers were elected—Mike Sayers, President; Rick Moore, Vice President; Gretchen Foust, Secretary; Tom Beaver, Treasurer. The NHS then partici- pated in such projects as selling t-shirts and address labels in order to wipe out previous debts. Its members helped at the Open House in November and did phone work for the spring millage election. Mrs. Trim, busy at work in the library, coordinates the activities of the NHS in her “spare time.” Debate The Debate team, under the supervision of Mrs. Horst, entered 180 rounds this year and tied for second place in the 7-A League. The leagues that they participated in were: 7-A, I-94, Wayne Coun- ty, WCTM, Sauk Trail, and Neophyte. They entered nine tournaments and Ingrid Sponberg came out with top honors at the Dearborn Tourney and at WCTM. The members of the team are: Mark Angelocci, Mike Birdsall, Marshall Brown, Gary Court, Helen Fogk et, Stefan Gerganoff, Angelo Johnson, Nancy King, Cathy Murray, Carol Mur- ray, Jim Ogden, Nancy Parks, Joel Rutherford, Ingrid Shicsllaieg eulk Shiny Conert uals theca Kent Seimers, Bill Shepard, Ingrid Sponberg. behind the podium while the other members of the debate team do research or receive help from Mrs. Horst The Y psilantian— A Memorable Media of Madness...

The Sem’s reporters consisted of a motley crew not all together influ- enced by the mass media, but merely concerned with telling it like it is and can be. Their first step was to devise a statement of purpose of the Sem. The staff searched for a reason for their existence and set up goals that they hoped to reach dur- ing the year. This statement of purpose brought the staff’s ideas and the paper together. The source for conveying these ideas and getting other people’s opinions would be the Sem itself. There were some major changes in the Sem this year. It was distributed to everyone, free of charge, because the staff felt that it might bridge the communication gap that plagued Ypsi High this year. Another change was that of the Purple Feather Award, a brainchild of the sports editors. This was an award given to the outstanding sportsmen. The photography classes provided the Sem with better pictures to go along with the greatly improved coverage. PALLADIAN Outlet for Creative Works First Row: Lynn Graves, Melanie Perreault, Krista Wheatley. Second Row: Marsha Vercelli, Karen Buccos, Sally Ogden, Mr. Court, Teri Adams, Molly Power, Mrs. Goff. The Palladian staff worked hard to ensure the success of the creative arts magazine in a number of ways. YHS students were urged, both by colorful posters and announcements, to contribute their talents in the fields of writing, art, and photography. The Palladian aimed for a high standard of quality in addition to a variety of interesting material. The staff also solicited patrons for the Palladian as an added source of income. jail HRY | First row (sitting) Krista Wheatley, Michelle Hays, Gary Court, Pam McLeod, Mike Sayers.

They began preparations and plans for the new year on the annual trip to the famous National Music Camp at Interlochen, Michigan. The marching band took part in pre- game and half time shows at football games, YHS’s own homecoming parade, and Band Day. Drum Major for the 70-71 year was senior Steve Lindner. When concert season started the band began to prepare for the winter con- cert, individuals and ensembles for the solo and ensemble festival, and the band festival. Due to an increase in students at YHS, the band, for the first time, competed in AA com- petition held at Lincoln High School. The Band received a second division rating, on an excellent performance. The Bands’ spring ac- tivities included a Spring Concert and March- ing in the Memorial Day Parade. The Year closed with the performance of the underclass Drum Major at commencement ceremonies. The Pep Band performed at all home basketball games and Steve Lindner pep assemblies, under the leadership of Mar- shall Brown.

Money was needed to provide deserving orchestra members with scholarships. To meet this need, orchestra members sold stationary throughout the year. Many new members joined the orchestra, coming from the junior high schools, and provided the orchestra with new life and spirits. As a result of this new spirit, the orchestra entered the float competition during Homecoming and won first place in the club division. Because this year’s orchestra had many new members and lost many graduating Seniors, there was a lack of experience and the orchestra had to work extra hard to gain continuity within the group. Many of its members parti- cipated in Solo and Ensemble, bringing back many first and second division ratings.

DBC Flings Along With Flynn The DBC successfully recruited several new underclassmen to fill the va- cancies left by departing seniors. In order to fully train the new members, the first show was not presented until midway through the season. The DBC, led by drum majorette Debbie Flynn, presented a pre-game show with the band at Homecoming, and performed the popular and traditional Highland Fling. The DBC closed out its fall marching season by again performing the fling at the Belleville game, and afterwards attended the pajama party held at the home of President Jackie Caldwell.

Sophomores who won letters this year were Mike Wilson at 185, Greg Boik at H.W., and Grady Rice at 126. The J.V. cheerleaders added to the spirit at football and basketball games this year. They also sold pep buttons and painted posters which brightened the halls and covered up the cracks in the plaster. At pep assemblies they put on skits to liven up the spirit.

This year unveiled one of the most interesting projects ever attempted by Ypsilanti High School photography students. With the supervision of student teacher Mr. Stokus, the movie ‘‘Diary of an Unborn Child’’ was designed, taking approximately three weeks. Eight days of a baby’s life were constructed—partly through magazine pictures and partly through those taken by the students themselves. The movie was then put on video tape. Finding the right pictures and not having a script to work with were only two of the problems to be overcome by the tireless workers. The work was done at Eastern Michigan University’s Television Studio. Students rotated their jobs to try their hand at all the processes involved in film-making. The final tape was then proudly shown by the now experienced photogra- phers to journalism classes here.

It is the Literary Exploration Organization (LEO), and Miss Garner is_ the advisor. The club worked hard to raise money selling candy and holding bake sales, car washes, and a rummage sale. Then dur- ing Easter vacation they went to London, visiting Madame Tus- saud’s Museum, Westminister Abbey, Canterbury, and Shake- speare country. Miss Garner said ‘‘The Club is an outgrowth of English literature. Reading literary works is a good experience but to have the opportunity to visit the landmarks, see the coun- try where the various authors received their inspiration, and mingle with the people is most valuable.’’ Officers of LEO are Mark Hamilton, president, Shelly Franklin, vice-president, Jennifer Crittenden, secretary and Barb Brower, Treasurer.

Football has traditionally been a large part of the high school atmosphere, and this year was no exception. Coach Ralph Perriello’s ‘‘Purple Gang,’’ as the team was nicknamed, compiled an 8-1-0 record for the season, losing only to Wayne Memorial. They were rated 10th in the state and finished tri-champs in the last year of the Sauk Trail League, before moving into the 6A League. The 1970 record is the finest in 22 years, and is the best record in Class A competition. They renewed an old rivalry with Ann Arbor Pioneer, and proceeded to show the ‘‘power of purple’’ as the Braves won a close game by a score of 21-19. Outstanding players of the year included Amen Bow, Fred Trosko, and Rufus Powell, who were named to the All-Sauk Trail League offensive team, with Jeff Jentzen, Bruce Ibbetson, Wendell Lewis, Steve Jentzen, and Jim Buelow, named to the all-league defen- sive team. The Junior Varsity team members slated a 7-2-0 record, and are sure to fill many posi- tions in next year’s varsity squad. Their record of 7-2-0 is the best in the history of J-V. football at Y.H.S.

The team carried away the Sauk Trail champi- onship for the fifth time, making them undefeated in league competition. Records were broken by individuals throughout the season. Larry Walls set a record for 32 rebounds. Steve Rhodin set a new assist record, 165 assists in one season and 420 assists for a new career recor d. Steve also set a record for field goals in a single game with 18, and in the same game scored 39 points overall to come within one point of Craig Larson’s record of 40 points. Ron Gardner, who started in all but the final games averaged over 23 points per game. The 15 win 2 loss record of the whole squad made for a good season overall. To top it all off, Coach Dick Ouellette was voted Coach of the Year by the Michigan High School Coaches Association. The junior varsity showed great promise with a 12 win 4 loss record.

A balanced team and _ outstanding individuals have made this year’s wrestling team one of the finest in Ypsilanti’s history. The proof is in the 14 win I loss record, the loss coming from Lansing Eastern. The team was first in the league, district and regional competition, placing third in the state finals. Six wrestlers went to the state tournaments, and of the six, Bob Stewart and Wendell Lewis emerged as state champions, at 98 and 155 pounds, respectively. The other four wrestlers who went were Steve Jent- zen, Amen Bow, Charles Wells and Nehemiah Weston. Coaches Roy Wil- banks and Mike Bradley have a right to feel proud of their team. The junior varsity earned a 10 win 2 loss record for the season.

The team really pulled for him, too, coming in _ second place in the league. This year the diligent team proudly replaced all but one of the var- sity records, and outstanding swimmer Doug Knapp was the first to break a pool record in quite some time. The swim team really put out and wound up with eleven meets won out of fifteen, a fine job done by all.

The varsity squad consists of six players, who compete, and of the six scores, the four best are counted, and the winning team is determined by that. The two more permanent members of this year’s squad were team leaders Jim Bue- low and Fred Trosko. The other four spots were usually up for grabs. The golf- ers were also out to get their third league title in a row. The golf team was coached by Roy Wilbanks.

The year’s biggest goal was to better last year’s 4 win 5 loss record and the third place finish in league competi- tion. The team was led by co-captains Lurie Davis and Dane Fortney, and coached by Levi Simpson. Below Left: Lurie Davis hands off the baton after his leg of the relay.

The team was also looking forward to the first state high school tournament in baseball. A third league championship was another goal for the season, having won the 1969 and 1970 titles. The squad featured ten returning letter- men, with ten more coming from last year’s jr. varsity and three transfers from St. John’s. Included in the re- turning lettermen are veterans Steve Rhodin, Bob Moffett, and Jeff Washington. Working to improve bat- ting averages were Bob McSpadden, who averaged 412 last year, Jeff Washington with .382 last year, and Steve Rhodin with .344 last year. Rhodin was also out to beat his pitching record of 8-1 for last year.

Reaching the pinna- cle of secondary schooling, we celebrate by having senior pictures taken, announcements made up, skip day for legal truancy, a glittering prom, senior week, and lastly—graduation, with its following string of parties. We had the most capable direction of Mr. Parker as class sponsor, President Tom Byrum, Vice- President Lorraine Holman, Secretary Brenda Fuller, and Treasurer Diane Hall to assist the seniors in our many projects, as did the executive committee made up of interested ‘‘71”’ers. As spring of our great year approaches, the seniors grow closer together. Friendships blossom and there is a sense of unity never before shared. Yet as soon as the graduating class finds itself growing closer, we must seperate.

Keith Dumas and Connie Brothers yrk on a pinata in Spanish Club (at right) Juniors: Along with the new school year came a new and different President for the class. Finally someone came along who put up a hard fight against apa- thy. The result was a year of many challenges for the Juniors. Numerous attacks were made on the effectiveness of traditions, one of them being a Senior Prom. New ideas as to earning money cropped up: a concession stand in the Teen Cen- ter and the selling of food during the football season. But the most challenging idea presented to the class was a constitution. The opposition against President Spike grew immense and the constitution was defeated. Later, a new proposal for a class Senate and a set of resolutions was given. It is through these challenges that the Juniors will look towards the new year. A Year of Challenge ts take advantage of the after-school art cl work on their pottery.

When he got himself elected Junior Class president last year, he had very little idea of what strange paths he would be travelling in that role. ‘I ran for president for the practice in human relations, to see if I could get the students concerned about something and to have a position of ‘power’ from which I could talk to the administration about changes in the whole system’’ he said. ‘‘I wanted to change the system so that there was less of a law-and-order atmosphere in the schools. Why me? Nobody else was trying.”’ Jim found out early in the year that his goals would have to be more specific than chang- ing the school system, which he decided was impossible given his resources and time. He looked at the class structure and found it was without structure. “I could only be stopped by being gotten rid 196 of,’’ he recalled. ‘‘So since I was class presi- dent, I abandoned the old goals and tried to give the classes some structure.”’ His constitutions were the structures that he framed, and they were rejected by the class. Jim then embarked on a series of acts designed to awaken the Juniors to the danger of being without rules; he ignored Home- coming, did not work on the float, ignored the Prom, and staged takeovers of the Junior Class by its president. The class responded as he had hoped and passed resolutions provid- ing for a structured Student Senate. He said ‘“‘I would like to see a tradition of class legislatures started, so that eac__ class frames its own government.” An individual tool has been the Odyssey, an underground newspaper he edits and pub- lishes. “Its value lies in what it can do,’’ Jim noted. “It can get across to a lot of students without any administrative control.”’ INSPIRATION When the final bell rings this June, Mrs. Mooar will lock the door of 111 for the last time and head for the sunsets of Montana; head for an unfettered existence in the mountains like a magnificent dream. Behind her is over forty years of teaching, study and research. Ahead is a life free of external compulsion and full of promising challenge. For many summers Mrs. Mooar has gone to Montana to collect plants, and she looks for- ward to returning. ‘‘It is like going home,”’ she said. ‘‘I’m so well acquainted with the area and I have a lot of good friends out there.’’ Why did she become a teacher? Mainly, her liking for young people and enjoyment for biology combined naturally in a ca,eer that informed the one of the other and ‘spread the word.’ She has particularly enjoyed Ypsi High because of the high qual- ity of students she encountered. In her teach- ing Mrs. Moocar tries to foster self-discipline, self-motivation, and self-direction in stu- dents. She noted, ‘‘I don’t get irritated by people who work with what they have and can’t get anywhere, but I hate to see someone wasting their ability.’’ Throughout her life she has been closely and passionately involved with ecological and conservation causes. The same_ central philosophy—hatred of waste, whether of human potential and ability, or natural resources and beauty—is evident in her concern for the environment. Mrs. Mooar hopes to become involved with ecology in Montana, where the level of con- cern is not high, by writing and research. She has the time to devote herself to environ- mental protection, as well as to some unifin- ished research on clams and wet plants of Montana. “I will miss seeing all the places I haven’t been,”’ she said. ‘‘I want to see the desert in bloom, be in Baja, California when the gray whales come in, and go the Great Band, the Tetons, and the valleys of Western Montana in the winter. I will miss most of all an out- let, somebody or some class to talk to about my experiences and the beauty I see.”’ “Do I have a philosophy?’’ she responded to a final question. ‘‘First, I would say that anything worthwhile has some tedium mixed with it, like the 13,000 plants I have col- lected. Secondly, someone has said ‘ you pass this way but once’ so make the most of it!”’ COMMUNICATION Why be a Why go _ into counseling? Why get tied up in all that red tape and try to help people who hardly know you and don’t always appreciate all of your efforts? Why? ‘‘Because I like people. Because in order to be successful in life and to attain a successful position, one needs to be willing to give of himself fully.”’ Miss Bernice Inwood finds satisfaction and fulfillment through counseling. It challenges her and enables her to become involved with people. She _ especially emphasizes the importance of knowing the whole student and knowing some of his background; his hobbies, his interests, his likes, his dislikes. Just knowing one’s grades and past record isn’t enough if a counselor and counselee hope to establish some kind of rapport. To gain rapport is Miss Inwood’s goal. Admit- tedly, this type of relationship cannot be reached with all counselees, because of the large number of students that Miss Inwood must handle, but she is able to gain rapport with a very large proportion of her counse- lees. How did she decide to go into counseling? While attending Olivett College, she majored in English and minored in history, looking forward to a career in teaching. She received her Bachelor of Arts degree from Olivett and counselor? i . te : —_ _— : J ; = | £ : ! a } nee i al a A —— ate! - decided that teaching wasn’t exactly what she wanted. Miss Inwood wanted to get from behind the desk and to come in closer contact with the students. She went on to get a Mas- ter’s Degree in Guidance and Counselling at The University of Michigan. It was through the U of M Placement Center that she obtained her position as counselor at Y H S. She was especially attracted to this area because of the cultural opportunities that both Eastern Michigan University and The University of Michigan offered. Miss Inwood has helped many Ypsi High students to find their place in society and purpose in life. Many students have come back to Ypsi’s Counselling Office to search out Miss Inwood and ask for help on their particular problem, as they know that if anyone can help them quickly and efficient- ly, it will be Miss Inwood. This is one of the most gratifying aspects of her job. What will she do after she retires from Ypsi High? She plans to travel and to catch up on some reading. She also looks forward to tak- ing in much more of the community’s cul- tural activities and to devote more time to her church obligations and activities. She plans to be very busy, but she will never forget her many rewarding experiences at Ypsilanti High. 9? : ‘ Le OF VS OS SRE 4 A fais Sis SA a b LIP” P =, “ttn —eN Dia = 5 ay AND Lo ss, SS aoe : See ' ; ye ieee 4 ants Cy A Up ina tree. That’s where I seemed to be most of the year. With deadlines to be met, cutlines and copy to be written, and pic- tures to be taken, our staff was ‘‘up to their ears’’ in work and I had to coordinate the various activities. Since the Ypsilantian staff was composed of many new and inexperienced members, we had many new innovations along with many challenges. Some of the innovations were solarized pictures and a new tex- tured cloth cover. The challenges were meeting deadlines and having the necessary pictures developed on time to meet the deadlines. Creativity dominated the Ypsilantian, but sometimes at the expense of quality. The great bulk of our photography was done by students. They experimented and tried to capture their subjects in new ways. They provided fresh outlooks on old sub- jects. There were some problems in the development of the pictures, as they were occassionally blurred and not too distinct, but the majority of them were excellent. Many people were involved in the writing of copy for the var- ious articles and pictures in the Ypsilantian. The culmination of the varied styles and viewpoints of the writers gave the book a broader outlook and a wider scope. Special articles on this year’s retirees and a large amount of candids gave the Ypsilantian a personalized touch. Working on a yearbook is a valuable experience, as one finds out how much work must be put into such a large operation as the Ypsilantian. It is a very flexible media and is conducive to crea- tivity, as long as the staff and student body are willing to con- tribute something to it. I hope that in years to come, more peo- ple will take an interest in it and develop its potential even fur- alice rae lamiman
