Deja Vu Retraced

Retrospect retraces blue
Winding through "Heavenly Dreams" and
the Powderpuff stalemate between '84's Killer Time and '85 Alive on a muggy August 15
night flared Deja Vu and refreshed the
"we're gonna be better" ambition. Individuals finally eyed the "I's Have It" and retraced '83-'84's treasured friendships, dreaded trips to 109 and New Voice sock hops.
Panic had swelled when the Josten's Publishing Company nearly missed the Classic delivery date, yet its arrival spurred optimistic
outlooks on returning to academic rigor and
Trojan blue.
While the promises of acing Computers II
and Comp. for College splashed scholastic
enthusiasm across the east and west corridors, school spirit and sock hop attendance
waned and were replaced by parents-out-oftown parties. Close friends dictated no one
wanted to be different. At 4 p.m. on October
30, no more than 15 lonesome dancegoers
loitered after the football State pep rally; no
army fatigues during Spirit Week on March
20. It became "in" to be out-of-synch with
what everybody was doing.
In spite of the carbon-copy air retracing
the apathetic '70's, classes battled prior to
October 19 for top-notch Homecoming float
blueprints. However, Black Watch bandsmen

quired attitudes and paraded true Trojan
hurrahs on "Killing Rams is Our Forte," a
barren cardboard float. Members in uniform,
also, recalled the scant numbers showing for
Bradford's Homecoming and confirmed a noshow for either school.
'while the psyched Trojan football squad
oozed a near shut-out record, boisterous
chants of "All the way to State" provoked
vandalism. The Zion Benton culprits, once
again, surfaced the 1981 trail to the State
Championships with four-foot "ZB" insignias, two broken windows and a broken glass
door on November 7.
More glass, however, shattered ordinary
Commons decor with a 10-foot trophy case.
It remained empty of trophies and plaques
through May, for excess senior class treasuries had ironically located the walnut box
backwards.
School pride flashed its intellectual muscle
when 20 Tremperites congregated to depict
four foreign nations at UW-Parkside's mock
OAS General Assembly on December 7 and
8. From Kenosha and Racine, 125 delegates
obliterated local school differences and narrowed in on foreign turf. Yet, Tremper-sponsored resolutions swept OAS votes and showcased Trojan speakers in the collective forum.

Change assembled Tremperites once more
at the last official senior class bash on Friday,
May 17. The slide show, thematically titled
"Changes," retraced best friends, four statebound wrestlers, long-lasting couples, Sadie
Hawkins's Hayfever Hop and scores of social
and personal memories from the big events to
important little moments. Blasting off from
David Bowie's smash single, high-fashioned,
low-waisted frocks and bow tie and sporty
suit combos sophisticated the zany humor of
the night.
The daily high school scene resurfaced
come Monday morning. The Commons incrowd sported penny lo?fers, bobs and untucked shirts that overshadowed the Con
hightops, small-rod perms and polos of '84.
The 50's surged revival in '85. After an appointment at Marietta's Hair Studio to don
the undercut, gals decked out in peddle pushers and Santa Cruz "biggies" flushed out
dates at Cinemas 5.
Over and over, Tremperites recalled past
decades in vogue fashion and fun and retraced their own steps from sophomore to
senior. Being there before etched every happening with Deja Vu, a familiarity that felt so
good to repeat again and again. Deja Vu
revived hazy memories and seared '85 alive.

Deja Vu Retraced

Deja Vu sparks reflection
After three glorious months of late nights
at the Keno and lazy days spent soaking up
the rays, reflections of Great America, double cheeseburgers at the Spot and waterskiing
at Twin Lakes glimmered in students' memories as August 26 ended summertime bliss.
The start of school sweltered with temps
peaking in the 90's for eight days, while the
all new no-shorts rule stifled all hope for a
"no sweat" day. Donning shirts that barely
nipped the waistline, beachcomber pants and
mini-mini skirts, reflections of Silver Lake
splashed across the student body as bronze
skin faded to September's blue.
Faced with new policies, ideas and expectations that mirrored Deja Vu, returning upper class members shed light for incoming
sophomores. Acting as the leaders of the
pack, juniors assembled bare frames to an
Eastern gateway for "An Evening in the Orient." Seniors precedented the high rollers
when lunch hour collections converted to $20
bills bought off the Barrel Drive.
Swinging into the academic sector, In
School Suspension ingrained a new meaning
in the art of learning. Last year's idle days of
watching "General" were over; suspended
students, instead, spent their "term" with a
stack of books, Mr. Larry Hartung and a
guilty conscience.

Unfurling stars and stripes, speaker Dave
Roever sparked partiotic values. The impact
of this grenade-torn body exploded any aversion to his frank committments about God,
country and teens. Roever's quick-witted humor about his handicap and the Vietnam
War eased students into self-reflections, as
seniors, unabashed, led the standing ovations
in the 2A/2B assemblies.
Students also stood up to be counted in
coins for the Ethiopian cause. Rolling in the
Barrel Drive on December 17, new principal
Mr. Richard Regner challenged students to
pitch in 17¢ per day for one week to stack up
$1700. Jars of jingling pennies echoed
through the Commons as each class raced to
claim its title. Aspirations overflowed, along
with barrels, as seniors again aced first place.
More importantly, the Ethiopian cause prospered, even though $1700 disintegrated to
$1000.
The smash single "Do They Know It's
Christmastime" blasted through the Commons as European music group Bandaid, too,
synthesized their efforts for the Ethiopian
cause. They flew Christmas spirit to Ethiopia
via the 45's bought at disc shops like Mainstream.

ty basketball players. Stockings full of candy
canes and chocolate kisses, snowman shaped
Christmas cookies and a homemade card reflected pride in the team's season rebound as
they crushed Bradford, 59-34.
Inhibited but eager sophomores sliced into
the magic of "Moonlit Rainbows" while mirror-magic juniors, for the second time
around, rocked to their "fav" Madonna tunes
at Friday night dances. Seniors, though, were
on the move, by March, to college life as
basketball games and Spirit Weeks were
readily replaced by ACT tests and dorm decor.
Rushing towards upperclassmen status,
sophomores stepped into the six pack scene as
the drive to a license loomed as the ticket to
"maturity."
Accelerating the quest for the top of the
heap, juniors boasted their wild-n-crazy freedom through such Friday night specials as
the long underwear-shorts combo or neon
free-on reflections.
Seniors, too, hurled themselves into the sophisticated regimen of exercising the "Fifth
Amendment," particularly at 26th and 60th
Streets.
All that rushing suddenly forced a gasp for
pause. Then, and only then, the reflection
occured, and Deja Vu hit home.

Dianne Thompson jam like the stars do as they lip
sync at the Blood Drive dance featuring Shout.

Spin-offs refresh old routine
From experiencing baggy, pleated pants to
the 19 vintage-1965 teachers, 17 51 students
refreshed the events that forever feel like they
have happened before. Faces, fashions and
facts mirrored Deja Vu from the 50's and
60's, yet accented refreshing twists as 1985
set itself apart from the rest.
Autumn's crispness propelled fans as far as
the football team. Enthusiasm bubbled over
at the Muskego playoff as the red and blue
striped beach ball bounced attention between
the game and the action in the stands.
Shout, too, reverberated through the gym
as the band and its lip synch-ers refreshed the
"best dance ever." Plasma d roplets, rather
disguised seniors, ran about with giveaways
and reved up the donors to "give a little bit"
for the 762 pint Blood Drive.
Setting another, but less positive record for
togetherness, seven students on Ski Club's
Powderhorn weekend trip discovered the joys

of in-school suspension when they brought
along their own liquid "refreshments." It
earned them a three-day stay with Mr. Larry
Hartung in room 203.
Thanks to the smoking ban passed by the
school board in August, fresh air filled the
smoking area west of the Commons. Smokers
then retreated to the corner of 26th Avenue
and 85th Street for a lunch hour hit.
Upperclassmen returned to a "fresh face"
as Mr. Richard Regner replaced Mr. Robert
Clark as principal. Meanwhile, "fresh" sophomores encountered nerd day and the soccer
squad's first trip to state.
Sportlovers refreshed memories of the
state championships of '79 and '89 as the
Trojan football squad smashed through the
MAC with a 10-0 record and outlasted Muskego 14-9 to advance to the semifinials. Although the team Jost to Madison Memorial

optimism into the school year.
In the fashion arena, top name brands battled for supremacy with the "in crowd." Izod
alligators were swallowed by the French and
Italians. The Guess triangle squared off
against the ever popular Esprit, while Forenza designs popped up in "abundanza"
where the cafeteria amassed 400 students in
seventh hour studyhall.
Even at lunch, Rocky Rococo invaded
Pizza Hut's home territory among 52nd
Street fast food spots for seniors with wheels.
Spin-offs of the past whirled for nine
months toward convocation. As retraced and
reflected capped the Deja Vu of the people,
events and news of the year, refreshed epitomized those ecstatic feelings conjured by diplomas, graduation parties, moods and
memories.

during Spirit Week between October 15 and
19. As the week progressed, nerds, Greeks,
Hawaiians, sockhoppers and inside-outers all
had their chance to cruise the halls with the
latest apparel. Nerds and Hawaiian mainlanders dotted classrooms with the latest
imaginative costumes. Senior Dianne
Thompson was the center of attention as she
scuffled around in her green vinyl jacket,
slicked back hair, plaid pants and custom
"milk mustache."
"I was really surprised at how people reacted to my costume. I guess I must have typified what a nerd seemed like to everyone so
they couldn't look at me without laughing
their heads off," chuckled Thompson.

However, Ireland's poetry flew by most of the
audience as attitudes of anxiety presided.
With the colorguard at full salute, candidates and escorts filed onto the elevated
stage, and M.C. Matt Jones announced that
student balloting had named Carrie Sykes as
Homecoming Queen.
As early as 5:30 p.m., students slipped into
the Commons for pizza and later spilled into
the courtyard for the "Big Brute" bash. As
New Voice fired up the crowd with Prince's
"Let's Go Crazy," Noel Clausen captured
the "Big Brute" title and flaunted the "X-tra

Cheerleading Captain Noelle Hintzman. Juniors and seniors surpassed the Deja Vu of
the 1983 Homecoming, while sophomores
envisioned events that were to fill their weekend with everlasting memories for years to

Around 6:30 p.m. as the brass presented
the first fanfare and the jesters bounced from
table to table escorting guests to their seats,
many newcomers studied the colorful banners and grandly decorated table settings.
Second or third year feaste-goers, on the other hand, seemed to center their attention on
the smoked fish or the green salad tantalizing
their hungry appetites.
Suddenly, the Steward of the House,
played by Mr. Terry Lawler, burst into the
ballroom, calling everyone to attention. He
explained that the "Liege lord and king" had
been trapped by French forces and the outlook was grim. He then announced that in
place of a feaste, the time was to be devoted
to prayer and fasting.
The guests showed mixed reactions to the
sullen news. While some burst into nervous
laughter, still others appeared to be completely perplexed with the whole situation as
they obediently bowed their heads.
Suddenly, a jester dashed over to the Steward's side. After a brief look of irritation,
the Steward's eyes grew large with surprise.
"My lordes and ladyes," he happily announced, "the mighty French were forced to
yield before the might of England's men. As
trumpets call us to our feaste of earth's great
treasures, plant and beast, let every corner of
our hall resound with merry madrigal!"

Winter reflects joy
B raving a temperature reading of 28°, head Kim Evans clarified, "We had 20 dozen
150 couples mirrored, through bubbling
conversation and dressy clothes, the winter
festivity of Sub Deb's twentieth annual formal, "Winter Reflections," on December 22.
Although winter had already witnessed two
days, Jack Frost held snowfall back. As a
result, supper reservations at Racine's Corner
House, Milwaukee's Pieces of Eight and
Gurnee's The Village Smithy did not have to
be cancelled because of icy highways or frozen engines. Reservations at 6:30 p.m . safely
allowed couples time for arrival at the Eagles
Club by 8:30 p.m.
Slipping in from the frigid temperature,
early couples were not greeted with live music, but instead by the faint sound of a stereo.

Because the band 99 mistakenly thought
their "gig" was to open in the school gym,
they set up late and opened with "Footloose"
at 8:45 p.m.
The crowd was tempted to socialize around
the refreshments, consuming Christmas
cookies, pastries and punch until they exhausted the supply. Refreshment committee

cookies, 12 bottles of 7-UP and eight cans of
Hawaiian Punch, which is enough for a normal dance, but people didn't start to dance
right away, so we ran out."
After all the expected arrivals had entered,
there was ample room to twist and mingle as
the dance was held in the more spacious upstairs ballroom instead of the usual downstairs. A colossal Christmas tree decorated
with colored bulbs and strings of silver garland greeted couples dressed in wool sport
jackets, pin-striped suits and chiffon and taffeta dresses. Red and silver streamers twinkled on the dance floor in the glow of 99's
backdrop of green and red flashing lights.
As some couples strolled over and scanned
the decorated Christmas trees to find personalized sleigh bells, others bebopped to the
beat of 99's version of Huey Lewis' "The
Heart of Rock 'n' Roll." "I thought the band
did a great job once they got there and started playing. They livened up the place more
than a record player ever could!" chuckled
senior Micki Peltier.
As the sounds of 99 flowed through the
halls of the Eagles Club, couples either
swayed to Bob Seeger's "Mainstreet" or retired from the floor for the evening to confront the outside bitter cold. With the Deja
Vu effects of "Winter Reflections" and of the
Christmas spirit, the moments melted into
memories as the couples braced themselves
against the icy chill at 11 p.m.

Retiring from the dance, junior Carol Kalvonjian and
graduate Tom Burke relax with personalized bells.

Hootin' and hollerin' of wild hillbillies
quickly paced the night through its events.
Traditional games like the licorice-eating

he surprised many a folk when he showed up

hitched about 60 partners, officiating the ritual of pipe cleaner rings. Couples sealed up

faithfulness, at least 'til midnight. Shouts of
"see y'all" spread from many determined to
make the most of married life as they dodged
out early around 10 p.m. to spend the remaining hours out on the town.
Many students wore themselves to weariness as romping rowdiness took its toll. Couples swayed off into the night as Phil Collins'

Since January, ten weeks previous to showtime, the cast devoted itself to lengthy one to

Powder-puffers on May 24. As the score a touchdown for '% Kicks. However, understand the expectations concerning rules
6 p.m. game time rolled around, football fans
filed onto the bleachers to watch the battle of
the classes. Besides the fight-to-the-finish
football game, nine male cheerleaders, two
juniors and seven seniors, performed kicklines and constructed pyramids to appease
and liven up the crowd.
Yet, out on the field the air thickened with
nervous concentration. The '86 Kicks junior
team took the field with four weeks of organized practice, compared to the senior team
which only had two weeks. Nevertheless, the
seniors assured themselves of victory. "We've
got it made!" senior center Dianne Thompson
exclaimed before the game. "They'll never
get past our front line!"
During the first half of the game, the score
remained 0-0 as the junior defense fought to
keep the stubborn Body Busters from scoring.
The Kicks attempted their Express and Overload plays to no avail, while the senior team
also gained little ground with left and right
sweeps.
Within ten minutes of the second half, both
teams faced surprise. The second-string defense of the Kicks team allowed senior halfback Cindy Dejno to scramble through on a
left sweep. She ran 60 yards to set the score at
6-0. Again stunning the junior defense with
another left sweep, senior quarterback Debbie Holland sneaked around the line to raise
the score to 8-0.
Feeling, the crunch, halfback Ann Colter

the referees called a holding penalty, erasing the seemingly victorious moment.
Crushed by the disappointment, the juniors
attempted to bounce back with their pitch
right plays to Colter, yet the Body Busters
fought a tough defense. In the final quarter,
the Kicks managed to hold back the touchdown-hungry seniors from scoring again. The
game concluded with an 8-0 score.
Although the traditional senior victory
weighed heavy on junior minds, the classes
merged once again at 8 p.m. in a different
manner. The Last Fling dance erased many
spiteful feelings as all classes "boogied" to

songs like Prince's "Let's Go Crazy" with
oldies-but-goodies such as "Mony, Mony,"
the band kept the crowd moving.
Though most hard feelings had been discarded, some Powder Puff skeptics, including
administration, questioned the roughness of
the evening's game. Principal Mr. Richard
Regner insisted, "This year the game was
much too aggressive. Next year the administration is planning to meet with both teams

and regulations, as well as the consequences
that will result if the rules are broken."
Referee Gregory Brand agreed. "The
game was the most violent one I have ever
seen," he contributed. "As a referee, it was
extremely difficult for me to call penalties
since both teams were playing very unfairly!"
Players also concurred, recalling cases of
bruised arms, sore necks and even split lips.
On the other hand, some senior players remembered the '84 game as much tougher.
"Sure, I thought the game was rough," stated
senior Mary Blake, "but actually I got more
bruised up last year."
Whether or not hard feelings existed, or
whether or not the game had been played
fairly, the '86 Kicks team broke the barrier of
animosity. Dashing over to the lingering seniors, they shook hands and hugged their previous competitors. Parents and friends laughingly snapped pictures of the tousled team
members, and both classes left together, leaving their anger and bitterness back on the
football field.
Later, after the Last Fling, juniors found
themselves looking ahead to the future, finally realizing that the senior label was now
theirs. As they wished the best of luck to
departing senior friends, a reflection on the
last two years of trials and triumphs aroused
Vu. Seniors had looked back over their
shoulders at those same moments only one
year earlier.

'Changes' awakens Deja Vu
ruising into the Elks Club from sum-

C mer-like outdoor temps, 240 seniors
heated up with spring fever on Friday, May
17, during "Ctianges" Senior Banquet.
As the ballroom doors opened at 5:30 p.m.,
preparations for the banquet brought back
memories of team work and class achievement. Only a lucky eight slipped out during
school hours to decorate, although early rumors had outlined plans for an all day picnic
for at least 25 courageous classmates.
"We wanted to have a barbeque for everyone who helped to set up," commented senior
Dianne Thompson. "Only eight kids ended up
being excused so that kind of blew our plans!"
Shortly after 6 p.m., Student Activities Director Mr. Gary Paulauskas introduced Senior Class President Mary Blake who then
conducted the evening's festivities from the
podium with other class officers and reps.
After numerous rehearsals among friends,
Matt Jones nervously conducted tht> invocation as classmates anxiously drifted toward
lines forming at the roast beef buffet.
After feasting on salad, melons, cheeses,
chicken and roast beef, Tammy Hamblin
sang her rendition of the "Cheers" theme for
the ballroom audience, while preparations for
the awards ceremony commenced.
"Tammy did a great job," praised Noelle
Hintzman. "It took a lot of concentration to
overlook the commotion of the crowd."
Fueled by a constant flow of wise-cracks
and crack-ups, "the dynamic duo" of Dianne
Thompson and Kris Wavro coasted through
serious awards such as Most Intelligent bestowed upon Mary Blake and Matt Jones and
Most Likely to Succeed earned most successfully by Megan Kingsley and Todd Smolinski. With "the duo's" humor, Bookworm
and Real Man/Real Woman awards stirred
up major crowd applause. Mike Lindsay's
Party Animal identity contrasted that of a
minister's son, although friends were quick to
second the motion and a hesitant Lindsay
stepped forward to accept his party hat and

horn.
Chants of "Boris! Boris!" echoed as Mark
Boris displayed a quiet but effective demeanor on his way to the podium, as did fellow
Bookworm Award winner Eve Weipert.
Brown-noser winners Noelle Hintzman
and Matt Schroeder vowed to "wipe it clean"
as toilet paper rolls were carted under arm.
Shortly after a duet by Tammy Hamblin
and Bob Bistrick wrapped up awards ceremonies, preparations came into focus for the
Class of '85 slide show.
Memories of nine preceding months
flashed before amazed faces as one memory
after another exchanged itself between
friends. Top 40 hits accompanied portions of
the presentation, while adding to the fun and
flair. "Just a Gigolo" by David Lee R.oth
typified Tremper's male student overview,
while "The Heat is On" by Glenn Frye reflected hot rods on the street, with violations
and rule breakers in full focus.

Principals weaved in
and out of a lengthy
conga line of seniors.
Familiar senior couples, the student-faculty game, prom, Sadie Hawkins, Black Watch,
Homecoming and school sports rounded out
the show.
Blasting a variety of 60's and popular hits,
Cool Hand overcame the rowdy crowd with
renditions of Bryan Adam's "Somebody" and
Cindi Lauper's "Money Changes Everything" as principals Dr. Hains, Mr. Regner and
Mr. Marescalco hooked up with the "conga
line" and trounced in and out of packs of
students. Minutes ticked by, and high school
memories were tucked into the back of students' minds, as the impact of "Changes" led
to
Vu images for the Class of '85.

Principle balance of job and family

Getting personal
"One day a student came up to me, apparently not knowing who I or Mr. Clark was
and said, 'Mr. Clark, is it true that Mr.
Regner is the new principal?' and I answered,
'WeJI, it could be true,'" related Mr. Richard
Regner, Principal. Apparently neither Mr.
Robert Clark nor Mr. Regner was recognizable to this student.
After completing a five year stint as Coordinator in the Vocational, Technical and Career Education Department, Mr. Regner was
"extremely excited and very satisfied" with
his appointment as principal of Tremper.
He and his family moved from Green Bay
where he taught in Ashwaubenon and later
taught at Appleton East High School.
"I have to laugh when students come into
my office to be disciplined and say, 'Who are
you anyway?' In the hall I hear students whispering, 'Who is he? Is he the new principal?' " remarked Regner.
With reference to a principal disciplinary
role, students sometimes compare Tremper
to a jail; yet Regner feels that "it could be
worse. We could have policemen and security
guards at the doors or have the principals
using walkie-talkie as they patrol the haJls."
Regner feels realisticaJly that the students
and staff are trying to make Tremper the best
senior high school in the state. "In order to
have a quality high school-ranked as one of
the best-students have to be achieving at
levels that are appropriate for them. The climate of the school has to be comfortable for
the students. The quality of the extracurricular program has to be considered as weJI,"
concluded Regner. Students boarded four fan

buses without charge and journeyed to Madison for the footbaJI state semi-finals on ovember 3. Regner intended such activities to
get students involved. In the future, the administration wiJI also be working with samples of students to develop feedback as to
what the weaknesses and strong points of
Tremper are. "We wiJI develop a committee
to find out what activities students would like
and what we could do to encourage more
participation in extracurricular activite ,"
Regner explained.
Regner attended five events weekly after
the school day. As principal of one of Wisconsin's largest high schools, Regner balanced job and family. "Homecoming got my
sons involved in the parade, and my family
and I got to see the game. I was reaJly happy
that they could share in a big part of my life
that normaJly takes me away from them," he
stated.
Concluding his thoughts on hi position,
Regner discussed the administration's policy
on rules and regulations. "Students should be
able to live within the rules - and they do. If
there are problems, the administration does
review the policy and debates on whether a
change is needed.We have to create an environment in which all students can work."
In dealing with the cliche principal image,
Regner concluded, "PersonaJly, I don't think
that kids should only get to know the principal when they are in trouble. That's why I go
to games and other after school activitie to
meet students on an informal ba i and to
show them that I want them to know me a a
person, not just a principal."

"I go to after chool
activities to eet students
on an inform 1 basis to
show that I ant them to
know me as person.,,

Stepping up and out for a breath of reality

On-the-job pays
Reaching beyond the scope of classroom
texts and desks, basic and advanced aviation,
child development, office and marketing COOP students charged across school yard
boundaries to conquer new academic challenges.
After a full year of prepping for their day
in the skies, basic aviation students, under the
instruction of Mr. Clet Feunfinger, familiarized themselves with aeronautical charts,
flight computers and plotters. Once the needed skills were mastered and the necessary
cash, $31 per student, was produced, students
were ready to board the plane.
To assure a non-turbulant flight, one of the
three students in the plane aviated as the
other two navigated. From the Kenosha Airport, the novice pilots performed take offs
and landings under the watchful eye of a
Gateway Technical Institute aviation instructor.
The advanced class followed the same triangular course as the basic students, Kenosha
to Watertown to Beloit and back to Kenosha.
In contrast to the basic flight, advanced students navigated across the heavens through
the use of radio. "Sitting behind the control
panel and actually being in command of the
plane was an exciting experience which I'll
never forget," recalled junior Louis Saldivar,
advanced aviation student.
Child Development II participants also
stepped off school property four days a week
for their hands-on experience. While working
at Jane Vernon, Jeffery, Roosevelt and other
Kenosha schools as teacher aides, the stu-

dents learned from kindergarteners, first, second and third graders. "Acquiring an early
knowledge of children, their behavior and the
most effective methods of dealing with them
will put me a step ahead in the world of
parenting," explained senior Kathy Clapp.
A more recent addition to the curriculum,
office or secretarial CO-OP, taught by Miss
Caroline Aiello, numbered 18 students in its
first year of existence. After meeting the requirements of one year of typing and the
completion of office management, these 18
pupils employed their bookkeeping, accounting, typing, filing and receptionist skills at
Snap-on Tools Corporation, J. I. Case, Kenosha Unified School District No. 1 and other
offices throughout Kenosha.
Laying the ground work for secretarial
CO-OP, sales and marketing CO-OP trained
14 participants to better their future business
lives. With Miss Mary Ann Searle assisting,
these students exercised marketing and salesmanship skills. "The knowledge I've gained
by working for USA Today will help me in
the experience department for a future job,"
emphasized senior Paul Pignotti.
The students in both CO-OP classes received two credits, one for their classroom
work and the other credit was awarded for
their on-the-job-training. All received at least
minimum wages, $3.35 per hour.
Kim Brownell summarized the Trojan outlook on applied education when she concluded, "Getting out there and really handling a
secretarial job sure beats reading about it in a
text book!"

Pressure steams up
" Pressure pushing down on me pushing
down on you . No man asked fo r" rocked pop
star David Bowie and Queen in a 198 1 hit
titled "U nder Pressure," echoing D~ja Vu to
1985 Bowie fans . Pressure, whether it be
school, parental or peer, bombarded and often squashed students.
As a pressure barometer for teens in Kenosha, Kenosha Youth Development Services
treated 350 family-cases . Their 24-hour hotline connected callers to professional counselors. While only 12 were regarded as schoolrelated and less than one percent presented
serious long-term problems, KYDS continued to relieve even minor cases. Even though
KYDS counselors made a major difference.
For some students, pressure continually bombarded others who did not find professional
counseling necessary.
Worries and concerns from parents about
incomplete term papers or low geometry
scores plagued teens. Like a rare tropical disease that strikes unpredictably, resulting tempers soared to unbearable degrees.
"My parents have already made it quite
clear that if I don't get a 'B' or better in
Physics, I won't be going to the Van Halen
concert in July," stated junior Mark Grapentine.
This parental strain began when high
school students were elementary age, and
even then conflicting priorities existed. For
the teen today, mother pressed Tom to study
for his history test while, in the background,
father urged Tom to practice the curve ball in
order to make the varsity team. Why'? Their
pride and joy must succeed in life, no matter
what the kid thought of their plans for his
life.
Pa~ents slipped into Deja Vu remembering the opportunities they had missed out on.
Molding their children to be what they have
not been, mom and dad contributed clashing
"advice" which was bound to force their
child to be a victim of pressure.
As the son or daughter changed with age,
so did the headaches and responsibilities.
Education, in some cases, had to be encouraged by parental dollar bribes for 'A's' or by
promises of extended curfews. Parents
stressed hopes of their teenager making the
grade or joining Student Congress or Key
Club, all to make certain that Tom was up to
par, a "spitting" image for friends, relatives
and even dad's boss.

Junior M arie Priebus remarked, " My parents used to give me a special present for a
good report card. They don 't anymore, but I
don't really mind because grades mean more
to me now than before."
Even chasing proper friends challenged
some students and augmented parental
strain. If mom or dad found a flaw in the
friend 's character, poof, out the door went
the friend .
" I had this friend who was a straight 'A'
student. Laura liked the Rolling Stones, and
because of that, my mother didn't want me to
hang around her. When my parents realized
she wasn't on drugs, we became best friends,"
recalled junior Dellene Holzschuh.
Dealing with parental authority opted several different escape routes. One road traveled was the hallway down to the Guidance
Office where problems could be discussed
confidentially.
"I have many students who come in to see
me about parental pressure. My best advice
to them is communication. If people could
release their feelings, there might not be as
many problems," explained Counselor Mrs.
Mary Lou Bauer.
Some chose other paths. "After fighting
with my mother about cleaning the house, I
usually crank up my stereo and tune in a
heavy metal station. Actually, I hate hard
rock, but so does my mom. That makes it all
the better," laughed junior Laura Nighbert.
Shooting baskets, reading a good mystery,
and to the extreme end, contemplation of
suicide relieved mental weight for some. "At
KYDS we treat suicide as a serious matter. In
an attempted suicide or mention of it, the
person actually pleas for help. Our job is to
acknowledge this as a cry and then try to
solve existing problems," commented Mrs.
Ginny Fennema, Coordinator of Crisis Inter·
vention.
Inevitably, stress and pressure culminated
like a geyser. Consequently, persons sought
constructive means of releasing them. Ser·
vices such as Crisis Intervention, Women's
Horizons, KYDS and local churches offered
guidance to those seeking help. Personal con·
tacts, though, most often soothed frayed stu·
dent egos.
Senior Kim Brownell concluded, "When
my parents get on my nerves, there's nothing
better than a talk with my best friend. She
always seems to understand."

Lighting Device

Shedding light on the subject

•

Left lll the dark
"Why couldn't we have received a decent
heating system instead? " argued junior Debbie Herr. "Can you guys hear that buzzing
noise? That irritating sound disturbs my
hearing aid," complained senior Steve Shend .
egative comments, such as these, lingered
throughout the school in response to the automatic lighting controls, which were installed
over the summer.
Along with a handful of vocal complaints,
the controls had been causing problems for
faculty and students alike. Several of the
units gave off a high-pitched tone, which aggravated some concentrating students and
teachers. Particularly students with hearing
aids picked up the annoying pitch . Also, Mr.
John Musser's fifth hour geometry class was
forced to hike over to an empty lighted room .
The two devices in his room were being stubborn and refused to turn on the lights.
As of October 15, thirty units were already
part of the "need to be repaired list." Yet ,
Principal Richard Regner said there was no
major problem with them. "When you impose something like this on such a large
group, there are sure to be some difficulties,"
remarked Regner .
Another of the most popular student gripes
was that the money could have been put to a
better use. "Since we can't wear shorts to
school and several of the windows don't open,
I think an air conditioning system would have
been appreciated more. Bradford has air conditioning, and so should we!" pointed out junior Mary O 'Conner.
This project was quite expensive, boosting
the grand total to $58,859. However, the Kenosha Unified School system was not forced
to fork up the big bucks. With hopes of conserving electricity, a federal grant funded the

whole lighting control system.
Tranquility though stirred its own turmoil.
"I've been sitting at my desk after school
finishing up my work, and all of a sudden the
lights will turn off. But if they are truly saving
electricity, then I'm all for them!" responded
English teacher, Miss Francis Werve.
This was the first school in Kenosha County to possess the energy-saving devices in every room, excluding the gym, cafeteria, auditorium . locker rooms, library, Student Activities Office, and the Classic and Tempest offices .
"I wouldn 't be surprised if the devices increase the electric bill instead of taking a
slice out of it," commented Economics teacher, Mr. Max Bair. This theory was supported
by the idea that, depending on how long they
remain in use, it takes more energy to turn on
and off flourscent lights than to keep them
going.
Another supporting factor of this theory
was the twelve minutes of a tranquil room
required before the devices automatically
turned off the lights. If a teacher left the
room for fifteen minutes, the lights would not
turn off until twelve minutes later. When the
teacher entered the room, he or she triggered
the lights back on, leaving only a short three
minutes of darkness . Energy was being wasted.
As opinions and view points changed from
person to person, the electric bill, accumulating through the year, was said to be the only
measure that decided if the devices were a
worthy project or not.
This left behind the unfulfilled request for
air conditioning and an efficient heating system. But, who ever said the game had to be
fair? Certainly not Uncle Sam.

Clean Indoor Air Act closes outdoor area

•

Student space up lll smoke
Plagued by the unhealthy smoking habit,
students found themselves more anxious than
usual to leave school as the day came to a
close. For some, without smoking a cigarette
to tie them over, seven hours of school study
and guidelines seemed to last forever.
An abundance of people had been smoking
in the parking lot before school, while others
chose the yards of nearby houses to get their
last "puff." A few found it easier to just give
in to the school district's no-smoking plea and
quit the habit altogether.
On August 14, 1984, the Kenosha Unified
School District No. 1 voted unanimously to
pass a no-smoking policy which was governed
by the Clean Indoor Air Act, also known as

the 1983 Wisconsin Act 211. The district's suit, students chose to go elsewhere to smoke.

American ways amaze Germans

Foreign farewells
Jetting over the Atla ntic's stormy waters ,
34 German teenagers and their three chaperones planned a mini-tour of the United
Sta tes. Sponsored by the German American
Partnership Program and the National German Government, the Wolfenbuttel citizens
visited Philadelphia, Washington D.C ., Boston, Madison, Chicago and their sister city
Kenosha. During their three week stay from
August 15 to September 11, the students
boarded in various Kenosha households for a
total of five days and thus discovered family
life in the U.S .A .
The exchange students found that Kenosha
was not as foreign as they had imagined. To
their amazement, rock singer Billy Idol had
yelled equally loud at Milwaukee County
Stadium in August as in Wolfenbuttel the
previous year. Also, basketballs and soccer
balls bounced in both the Eastern and Western hemispheres. However, because of the
great emphasis put on academic studies in
Germany, the 34 students explained that athletes engaged in sports outside of school. "Because my school doesn 't have a football team
or basketball team, cheerleaders, jocks and
pep rallies don't exist. There just isn't any
school spirit like in American schools, "add ed German exchange student Petra Korff.
German school differed from American
school in numerous other aspects. Going to
school from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., the German
teens tackled 10 to 14 subjects including two
to four foreign languages, while Americans
attended only five to seven classes from approximately 8 a.m. to 3 p.m . with no standard
requiring foreign language enrollment.
The exchangees also found the United
States' grading system less challenging than
theirs. "High school in Germany equals high
school plus two years of college in the United
States. Because of this higher level of education taught, few German students ever re-

ceive higher than a ' B' or 'C' on tests," stated
German teacher Mrs . Michelle Nielsen .
Besides the gym and choir classes, Driver's
Ed . was another class German students
yearned for. "In America, teenagers can't
wait to turn 19 or 21 because that is the
drinking age. However, in my country, turning 18 means being able to drive, which is
something my friends and I generally value
more than drinking beer," remarked German
exchangee Marc Gummert.
Unexpected impressions of America and
its people flew back to Wolfenbuttel with the
German visitors. "After a few days in Kenosha, Marc, my exchange student, noticed that
Americans have no individuality. Everybody
wears practically the same style clothes, and
they cut their hair to match their favorite
rock singer," stated junior Paul Koch .
"The strictness of American schools compared to that of German schools amazed Petra . In Wolfenbuttel she's allowed to walk
outdoors between classes, but while here, she
was confined indoors. Also, the dress code
was strict to her because at her school students dress as they please and don't worry
about getting a referral for wearing shorts or
studded belts," added junior Esther Marianyi .
Before the exchangees departed back
home to Wolfenbuttel with a new perception
of American life, local business generously
colored memories of a friendly community
with pens, pencils and keychains while the
chaperones each accepted a nylon briefcase
from Jockey International and a yearbook
from Bradford and Tremper as momentos.
As the end of their stay neared, a Germanstyle picnic roasted brats and sealed their
journey with American memories.

uEven thoug the Germans
benefited the ost from the
exchange, thei stay was just
as rewarding t me.,,

Driving to school was just not enough.
They had to have it their way. The perfect set
of wheels was created through imagination
and experience or sought through "classified" signs.
To the enthusiast, a car was not merely a
mode of transportation, but rather a hobby, a
thrill and an extension of his or her personality. The way one got from point A to point B
could be more important than getting to
point B at all for some, while others stressed
dependability and practicality. On January
31, roughly 200 automobiles representing
11 % of the student body braved sub-zero cold
to flare their own style.
Squeals and peels were as much a part of
noon hour as lunch itself. The "power freaks"
had a simple "the bigger the better" philosophy to follow. Why settle for a 350, 390 or
even 400 if there was room for a 454? To
handle the power add a Posi rear end, 16 inch
tires, turbo exhaust, center lines and dual
tanks to make it across town without having
to refuel. Luckily, gas prices dived under a
dollar from the beginning of '85 to soften the
effects of weekend cruising.
These street machines required money,
time and experience. "Since my dad is an
auto mechanic, I picked up the interest and
experience needed to precisely construct the
car I wanted with all the power it could handle," remarked senior Scott Lundy about his
black Javelin. Senior Guy Trecrosi added,
"Souping up my Javelin required months of
work and hundreds of dollars, but the 'stock
car like' results were well worth it."
Avant garde Trojans who had big bucks to
spend went all out for the contemporary styling of '84. Advancements included fuel injection, computer analysis, HO V-8's and turbocharging. Senior Margie Freund speculated,
"Buying our new Camaro was an investment
undertaken by my parents. We didn't want to

deal with the extra maintanence that olde
cars require. Of course, I didn't argue wit
them!"
Financially independant students wer
forced to satisfy their desire for a car on thei1
own. Possibly through long hours at mini·
mum wage, $60 checks added up tc
$300-800 or so-needed to buy the belove
bomb that mom and dad did not want ani
part of.
Some parents who wanted a say in the mat
ter, granted their minor full-time privileges t
the family car. Back and forth from school
and out on the weekends, this all purpose
vehicle proved priceless for independence,
thanks to the folks! "Driving my mom's sta·
tion wagon wasn't so cool, but I wasn't about
to waste money on my own car since I'm
going away to college next year," commented
senior Kevin Kollman. "I guess I'm going to
have a car accessable without having to pay
for it."
On the other hand, using a parent's car
could be quite hip. Senior Steve Prince had
access to Dad's '83 New Yorker for Home·
coming and spent hot summer nights cruising
cool in the "Midget". Meanwhile, junior
Chris Osmond relished thoughts of a night
out behind the wheel of Pop's '85 Mercedes
Benz 190.
No matter how dependable a car was, periodic maintainance was always a must. It
could entail an oil change and lube job or
tune up including points, plugs, distributor
cap and adjustment. Power Mech. gave stu·
dent mechanics the opportunity to learn and
complete repairs on their own cars.
Whether students used their car mainly for
getting around in their own style or for show·
ing off, they utilized a simple mode of trans·
portation as a social tool reflecting personal·
ity and individuality.

Technology outputs food for thought

An Apple a day
"I had to learn another language in order
to communicate," recalled junior Bob
Owens.
"The way they think is almost human. It's
fascinating!" exclaimed junior Jim Santerelli.
Such sentiments might relate to an outer
space colony on Mars and its green inhabitants. For some, this idea did not seem so
"out of this world" as the comments depicted
those ever popular devices, computers.
With Apple lle's and Hewlett Packard
computers, teenage programmers utilized
floppy discs to expand beyond computer
classes on a "user friendly" approach to music, drivers education and physics.
On August 29, 1984, Mr. James Firchow's
first hour music class sauntered into the band
room only to be confused by the presence of a
computer. Before they could say, "What, a
computer?" they found themselves face to
screen, deciphering "C" scales from "B" flat
scales. "When I signed up for this course in
the spring, I had no idea that I'd be working
with a computer," stated senior Shelly Shirven. The students employed a traditional keyboard and one which resembled that of a
piano, as they linked the world of musical
scales to the world of syntax errors.
Along with the music theory class, Mr.
Robert Warren's driver's education students
stripped away the mumbo jumbo to find computer's pavement-practical. Warren adopted
three programs to coach the future drivers
with lane changing and executing right and
left turns.

Computers

The scholars in Mr. David Tuttle's advanced physics class turned to computers,
too. Instead of writing a term paper, physics
students authored a computer program.
Left behind was the drudgery of thumbing
through thousands of periodicals, encyclopedias and dictionaries. The students instead
adopted more twentieth century materials, as
they applied "loop techniques," "subscripts"
and graphics in programming the composition and resolution of vectors, or the calculations of periods of a pendulum. "It's equally
challenging to write a computer program as it
is to write a term paper," commented senior
Dave Maurer.
In a more traditional application, the Computer I and II classes were introduced to
software within the second week of class.
Some realized from the beginning that the
relationship between themselves and the
computer was doomed. "When the first word
the computer spelled out to me was 'syntax
error,' I knew it would be a long semester,"
insisted junior Kari Sch ulz.
The modern obsession with computers
mystified and frightened many other minds.
"Just the word 'computer' scares me," admitted junior Polly Keyes. However, to the
technological mind, a computer represented
a "right hand man" who flawlessly stored and
retrieved previous programs. "Our Apple
computer at home has helped me through
many term papers. I wou ldn't trade it for
anything," conclu ded j unior Candy Ba umgarten.

On the up and up
Even for Kenosha's hometown university,
Parkside, a scholastic rank of 50 percent or
better is required for standard admission.
Class rank is "definitely" evaluated by college admissions and some scholarship review
boards according to Dr. Audrey Haines, Assistant Principal. Ivy league colleges and
scholarship committees go so far as to limit
selection to the top ten percent scholastically.
In a survey of 170 basic, regular and honors students, 87 percent of the polled students
agreed that class standing ranked high among
their priorities. "My scholastic rank is a priority in my mind because my future is important to me. Preparing myself to have good
study habits will prime me for my future college classes," acknowledged senior Karen
Stanton.
Homework apparently overwhelmed the
honor student's weeknights. Conditioning
oneself to tackle several hours of schoolwork
required discipline, patience and study time.
Fifty percent of the fellow classmates were in
accordance with the question that honors students spend too much time hitting the books.
However, senior Matt Runde expressed,
"Ranking high and maintaining a social life
can be accomplished if you work at it. When
I get home from school, I do my homework
right away so that it doesn't intefere with my
leisure activities."
According to 50 percent of the 28 teachers
who responded to a survey, the amount of
homework inflicted extra pressure on top
ranking students. Also, parent and counselor
demands of a student who perhaps were not
capable of handling honors courses asserted

additional pressure.
"It is the duty of an honors class to provide
constant stimulation for students, so that they
are not just satisfied to get their 'A'. Selfmotivation is an important, if not a necessary
requirement for any student in an honors
class. An inquiring mind and a desire to strive
for more than mediocrity is a must. If an
honors class teacher provides stimulation, the
student's end product will naturally follow,"
commented English teacher Mrs. Candy
Stein concerning the role of the honors teacher.
Survey "other" blanks were filled in to label honors students as "geeks," "queers,"
"Einsteins" and the like, but on the opposite
end favorable characteristics such as hardworking, trustworthy and reliable were
checked by 63 percent. Fifty-two percent of
the students questioned agreed that above
average classmates gave the impression that,
along with their standing, they "were better
than other people." The majority of the votes
backing up this conclusion was attained from
71 percent of the basic level students who
a lso picked out the qualities of hardworking,
but stuck-up for high-ranking students.
Although scholastic achievers may have to
suffer with less "fun" on weeknights, many
are rewarded with good grades, awa rds and
scholarships. "As an inductee of the National
Honor Society, I feel that even though I did
have to struggle to get all of my homework
done and pass by chances to go out once in
awhile, it was all worth it," reasoned senior
Dave Salituro.

Comical classroom foul-ups, bleeps and blunders

Crackups tickle doldrums
Flowing against current beliefs that teachers created nothing except deadlines, due
dates and headaches, let alone laughs, staff
members and students experienced that
learning and laughter occasionally coincide
in the classroom. Behind teenage visages
lurked the desire to break up the monotony of
education, sometimes at teachers' expenses
and sometimes in the sheer insanity of expressing high school humor.
Throughout the span of high school educators' careers, they could expect to deal with a
dazed junior falling out of a desk for laughs, a
"wise" senior with "all the answers" or ... or
an underfed sophomore craving small white
containers?! Still in disbelief about sophomoric humor, Mrs. Helen Dahl recalled,
"During homeroom a student walked into
class holding an empty milk carton. I didn't
think anything of it, until he ate it, cardboard
and all!"
eighboring the Spanish rooms, the
French classes of Mrs. Mary Gamache encountered a "weird" incident which left them
winded. Typically, it was a normal 1984
spring school day, that is, 90 degrees and a
broken univent. Strolling towards the machine in an attempt to relieve classmates and
Mrs. Gamache, a student opened the window,
not realizing the wind was blowing 50 miles
an hour. Naturally, the entire window blew
off, leaving a cold gale pouring through the
room and about 5,000 pieces of paper flying
around.
Even American History teachers shared
with their students moments which might not

have gone down in the records, but etched
indisposable memories . In a class taught by
Mr. Paul Fennema, graduate David Bisciglia
jumped out of his desk to do an impersonation of Elvis Presley. The King lives on in
Fennema's laughter.
Visual aids flashed a new meaning to
American History oral reports during
March, according to an anonymous student.
While an unsuspecting substitute sat in the
front row of the room, three guys in the back
rows bared their bottoms to moon the speaker. All the sub knew was that the class was
rolling with laughter.
Since weirdness, embarrassment and
laughter knew no boundaries, Mr. Charles
Bradley met all three on the track. During a
meet, a runner who waited for his turn with
the baton accidentally took off his trunks as
he pulled off his sweat pants, a lasting imprint
in spectators' minds. "The poor kid there in
front of the spectators in his jock strap," Mr.
Bradley revealed with a half-smile.
Although students supplied hilarious actions, teachers also created laughter or something. Mr. Terry Lawler recollected, "Once a
bunch of us pretended that we erased a tape
that another teacher was going to show. We
made a tape that began with the first few
moments of the original film. Then, five of us
came on the tape to tell him we had erased
it." This group intended to stimulate creative,
but impromptu teaching for the last 40 minutes of class.
Teachers embarrassed teachers, then
again, teachers embarrassed themselves. Ms.

Francis Werve sent papers and books flyin
as she slipped on a piece of chalk. "I had ju
apologized to the kids for making so man
mistakes that day explaining that since I w
so excited about my sister's wedding da
coming up I had not been able to sleep. Aft
the fall, I heard one kid ay, 'Boy, she
tired!"' Ms. Werve, who flew to Californi
during the April 5-15 spring break for th
wedding. She concluded, "All my classes a
strange so it's difficult to say which is th
strangest, but I have always counted on th
strangeness of strangers. I have never bee
disappointed."

Teenage Logic

Teenage logic stifles reason

Aftermath ignored
"I have to do it, my friends are." "Well, if
everyone's doing it, then why can't I?" "We
won't be graded on it, so forget it." "Don't
worry, it will be the other guy."
The dangers of such laissez-faire attitudes
and questions were minimized by students'
logic. Porky's, Fast Times and Risky Business
justified high school logic by showing that
anyone could throw wild parties without getting hassled by the law, school administration
or parents. When the lead of a movie crashed
the family Chrysler or came home plowed
after a night out with the guys, he received a
short lecture from mom and dad explaining
what he did was not up to family law, and it
ended at that with no punishment whatsoever.
However, when students accidentally
scratched their dad's Bonneville at a Friday
night sock hop, they found themselves working extra hours to pay for the "microscopic"
mark on the fender, or confining themselves
to the house for a string of weekends.
Upon entering high school, teens' deceptive logic intensified because of added responsibilities and new opportunities for decision. They discovered how secret messages
could be shuffled from desk to desk and how
candy bars could be munched on without
catching a teacher's watchful eye. Even
though no selling and buying of candy bars
officially became enforced on November 28,
the exchange often continued in the hallways.
It seemed everyone sold the sweet stuff, and
"if everyone else was doing it, hey, why can't
I?"
Likewise, students often allowed homework to slide because of clubs, soccer, the
Christmasse Feaste, dates or even the movies.
Consequently, students went to school with
unfinished assignments and depended on the
buddy-system for the final answers. Some began to question why teachers assigned homework. Especially if it was not to be graded,
copying was okay.
The value of completing assignments overwhelmed many students. How was finishing
two or three proofs, much less a character
analysis of Tom Sawyer, to help them in later
life? "Why I took Chemistry, I'll never know.
I'm almost positive I'll never have to recite
the elements of the Periodic Table to anyone," laughed junior Nibya Rivera.
Eventually, students thought that if they
could get away with "fluff stuff' such as
passing notes or eating candy in class, maybe

they could escape the discipline of more serious stunts. As a consequence, teens carried
over from the weekdays to the weekend
their logic that since everyone was doing it,
and nobody got caught, then it must be okay
to do.
.
Whether cruising in a 391 Javelin or the
family beater, car racers were ready to show
that their Mustang or Trans-Am could outdrag any other car. However, no one was
ready to face the police or pay the fine.
Speeders received tickets for their risks to
public safety as they edged their way toward
the 12 point state limit. The speeding continued regardless of the tickets and lost points
because the general rule pondered: "It will
most likely be the other guy." "I couldn't
believe I got a ticket for going 5 m .p.h . over
the speed limit. Almost everyone goes that
much over," remarked junior Kevin Sampica.
The logic behind skipping school, passing
notes and selling candy left evidence in
household life. Teens kept the minor and major incidents away from parents for fear particular values would not be understood because of the generation gap.
Young adults were practically the only
ones possessing these "proper" forms of logic.
Parents constantly questioned, "Why do you
have to always do what your friends do?
Think before you act!" If parents would only
slip back into Deja Vu to remember that, in
fact, they experienced teenage logic also.

"The O.A.S. was an incredible and fascinating way to simulate the actual arbitration
of disputes. The hard work included in the
program was well worth the learning experience," reasoned senior Mark Hufen.
The Model O .A .S. General Assembly educated students as to how uch a governing
body operated while it expanded their perception of the role, structure and performance of the Organization of American
States. Participants gained a broader and
clearer understanding of how each country
executed its foreign policies.
Approximately 125 students from the public and private high schools of Kenosha and
Racine spent five to six weeks in preparation
for the actual O.A.S. debate which took place
on December 7 and 8 at the University of
Wisconsin Parkside.
Twenty Tremper students represented four
countries. Participants from the same school
were grouped in fives when research began.
Each group represented one country. Advisors who briefed each group on actual policy
views also informed them of the current issues they would discuss and resolve. "Some

In-School Suspension

Forced advantages cut consequences

Suspended freed om
In-school suspension, for some unfortunate, misbehaved students became a new horror word. Being sent to Room 203 had a more
negative connotation than the infamous
Room 109.
Where did in-school suspension originate?
Superintendent Dr. John Hosmanek proposed his plan four years ago and set it into
effect on a trial basis at Lincoln Junior High
in 1980. Here, it proved successful by decreasing suspensions even in its first year.
From there, it proceeded to spread through
the junior highs, on to Bradford, and eventually reached Tremper.
Administrators and teachers, too, had no
doubt about its effectiveness in handling disciplinary situations. "Suspension out-ofschool was more of a vacation than a deterrant for behavior problems. This way forces
the problem to be dealt with," explained Assistant Principal Dr. Audrey Hains. "Students don't like being kept in one solitary
room all day, or being deprived of lunch room
privileges,"

The only break in the day was a 12:45 p. m.
bathroom run during which the students were
constantly supervised. "Being in ISS in 9th
grade made me definitely think twice before
attempting anything else out of line," recalled senior Mickie Peltier. "The enclosed
desks and plain room lead to a really boring
day."
Whether students showed up for fighting,
sneaking a cigarette on campus, or peeling
out in the parking lot, they did not have to
sacrifice their grades. ISS had its advantages,
also. Under the supervision of Mr. Larry
Hartung, students were allowed to make up
the assignments that were missed throughout
the course of the day, although not always for
full credit. Many class activities could not be
duplicated in assigned work. "Basically, the
program is set up so as to keep the student up
with the rest of his classes and to be doing
something constructive during the term of
his/her punishment," emphasized Assistant
Principal James Marescalco.

As students wore down the pavement looking for the ultimate employment, more and
more teachers began insisting that schoolwork was suffering because of it. A survey of
seven questions pertaining to working was
given to 99 teachers, 30 of whom replied.
Responding to the survey, 87 percent of the
faculty answered that schoolwork sometimes
has suffered because of jobs . 13 percent insisted that schoolwork has always suffered .
One reply stated: "The students are tired, and
thus inattentive in class. They usually do not
have their homework completed. Worst of
all, their attitude is one of indifference to not
caring at all about the quality or completeness of their work."
When asked if parents should stop their

Sidestepping studyhall blues
Mrs. Beth Schwartz
Attendance Office Secretary

Seniors pitch 10
Escaping the monotony of silent studyhall,
165 seniors flocked to favorite teachers for
relief. Receiving the necessary teacher consent forms, satisfied seniors entered the world
of the student aide or foreman.
The duties of aides ranged from answering
phone calls in the attendance office to watering plants for Mr. Charles Bradley. Grading
multiple choice papers and checking off assignments also reduced teachers' tasks.
Although student aides were helpful in doing much of this busy work, those wily few
found their way to the lunchroom returning
from an errand or even zipped into White
Hen after filling up a drivers ed. Buick. Hilarity, too, waltzed in when one teacher discovered the kid who had been "hanging
around" for two weeks was his aide.
Nevertheless, aides, not so furtive in their
ways, still found it more eye opening than any
quiet studyhall.
"Being an aide in Mr. Schmidt's American
Lit. class was not only better than sitting in
complete silence for an hour, but it also gave
me a chance to refresh my memory with
terms that I had already learned in my junior

lit. class," explained senior Tammy Hamblin.
While student aides remained behind the
scene correcting papers and running errands,
foremen interacted directly with the classes'
daily activities. This accounted for the reason
why foremen would continue to receive work
experience credit, and credit for aides would
be terminated beginning in the fall of 1985.
After completing at least four semesters of
an industrial arts course, seniors became eligible for foreman selection by class related
teachers.
Chosen for their knowledge and abilities in
the field, foremen took on a leadership role
with class responsibilities. General Metals I,
Machine Shop I and II, Woods I and II,
Power Mechanics I and II, Printing I and II ,
Vocational Printing, Electricity I and Electronics I and II, all used shop foremen.
"Demonstrating the use of computers and
advising students in correcting their mistakes
on the press took most of my time in class.
The remainder was spent helping people design layout and explaining offset printing
techniques, or j ust helping out Mr. Dehart,"
concluded printing foreman R odney Koepke.

"I really didn't like taking the
bus, but since my parents didn't
have a car to lend to me, I really
didn't have a choice," commented
senior Ron Ancevic. Both public
and Jelco buses transported a
large portion of the student body
to and from school while the rest
either walked, cycled or car
i)OOled towards first hour classes.
City buses cruised more than a
dozen routes as the common fare
of 35 cents was replaced by passes
which were distributed throughout the year at the attendance office. All except forgetful commuters rode for free. Students who
had destroyed or lost their pass
were forced to dish out the 35
cent fare at least temporarily
while a new pass was is ued.
"Jelco buses really aren't as
bad as some people make them
out to be," added junior Mike
Blust. "Once you get to know the
driver, the route and the people, it
gets to be a little repetitious but
not anything too radical."
J elco buses were lettered from
A to G and covered routes ranging from the State line, to Lakeshore Drive, to 67th street and all
the way out to 1-94. The area covered easily matched city bus services and provided students with a
form of transportation daily that
is for "students only".

All in all, even though each student that lived outside the two
mile radius surrounding Tremper
was provided with the opportunity
for free transportation, one wellknown remark still remained the
same from incoming sophomores;
"I can't wait to get my license so I
can drive to school!"

Screaming down sidestreets
and into major roadways towards
the west side of the boiler room, a
courageous few braved seasonal
winds, winter's sub-zero temps
and an occasional rainstorm or
two. These few cruised into the
parking lot on "scooter power",
which was both economical and
time efficient.
For a mere 50 cents a tankful,
half gallon tanks loosened up tight

way to avoid mom and dad's gas

he or she wanted to go. At 60 to

maximum of two or three per

Switching into high gear

Pedal pushers move in
Fall and spring clicked into
high gear as bicycles from all corners of the Tremper district
flooded the bike rack north-west
of the cafeteria. All different models, colors and sizes were intermixed to form a combination of
racers, moto-cross and the ever
popular "beater bike."
"I enjoy riding my bike just for
the exercise," commented junior
Amy Wells. "Anyway, gas costs
so much a lot of kids want to save
at least a few bucks a week by
riding to school instead of driving," she added.
High classed Peugeot, Trek

moto-cross circuit. These bikes,

Although winter months forced
even the most dedicated biker into
sticking to the bus system, summer school's sweltering heat invited sun lovers to add on a few miles
to the old two wheeler and burn
off a few extra calories.
"During summer school I rode
my bike almost every day," remarked senior Julie Rosko . "I
didn't have a car to drive, and my
house was too far to walk from, so
biking was my only real alternative," she added.
Overall, bikers represented the
most inexpensive of all modes of
transportation along with the ever
popular method of "hoofin' it."
As far as students were concerned, bikers would continue to
glide near the front of the pack of
over 1000 students who "trek" to

"We are a prevention agency - prevention of unwanted pregnancies, prevention of diseases
and prevention of bad experiences
centered around sex. We exist because we care," explained Ms.
Michelle Eisenhauer, pregnancy
counselor at the Kenosha Chapter
of Planned Parenthood.
Besides Planned Parenthood,
there were other organizations
who offered counseling and advice to kids who need help. Concerned groups such as Catholic
Social Services and Parenthood
Incorporated were also available
for the confused teen. Both
Planned Parenthood and Catholic
Social Services provided guidance
to individuals and couples on the
options open to pregnant teenagers. Parenthood Incorporated
also aided in giving information
about pregnancy and childbirth in
general.
Misinformation regarding teen
sexuality and birth control swept
through the city. In addition,
pressure to have sex at an early
age starts to increase as kids enter
into their adolescent years. Over

50 percent of the country's teens
had sexual intercourse before the
age of 19. "Everyone experiences
pressure during teen years. When
those pressures suddenly include
sexual intimacy, it is the young

woman that carries the burden.
For less than l percent of the teen
women at Tremper, parenting is a
new and frightening responsibility," verified counselor Dr. Mary
Scharmach.

Planned Parenthood counselor Michelle Eisenhauer advises a problematic teen.

As stated in Teen Sex: It 's OK
To Say No Way," most sexually
active teenagers have sex for all
the wrong reasons. It can stem
from loneliness or just the need
and the urgency to have someone
around who cares. Some use sex
as an escape from the world that
pushes in from all around them,
while still others find physical
closeness as a method of avoiding
a close, emotional relationship."
However, there were also 50
percent of teens who had not had
sex and believed whole-heartedly
in waiting until they were ready as
individuals. "It's not easy to take
a stand about sex, but defending
the ideals that are best for me
gives me a good feeling about being myself," expressed junior Polly Keyes.

driver's license; if a policeman
stops a driver, the driver is expected to produce a valid license. If he
cannot, he is ticketed. This is
much the same policy used with

All in all, having lunch passes
issued by parental permission and
having teachers who waited to
check passes was a successful system for maintaining discipline.
Yet, for some students a lunch
permit system merely extended
endless school days.

Brown baggin' goodies
"It's wilted, and the salad
dressing is so watered down that
you can barely identify what
you're eating," described junior
Lisa Nielson about the salad bar.
On the other hand, sophomore
Stacey Stanich praised, "I live on
the salad bar, it's great. I have it
about three times a week."
Hot lunch was catagorized as
decent by junior Dan Wikel.
"When I don't go out, I may get
hot lunch. It's not too unbearable
and definitely worth the 80
cents."
The other line referred to as

to its enticing title in the eyes of
junior Sue Dahl. "It's too expensive for one thing, $2 for three
items is ridiculous. Also, where's
the French cuisine? The closest I
ever saw was the French bread

"a

with the so called Italian spaghetti."
The ultimate rejection of these
courses proved to be the ever-familiar brown bag. Double-decker
subs and cold Luigi's pizza tantalized some brown baggers choosing the special-just-for-me lunch.
Hoho's, Fruit Roll Ups, Almost

Hands off!

P.D.A. proves touchy
"What's the big deal?"
"You've always been old fashioned." "Things have changed
since you've been in school."
These three phrases all typify
responses of dating couples
hooked on one another and not
afraid to show it. While in school
or on the town, students insist that
one kiss or a hug is normal behavior for people in love (or so they
say).
Yet another rule among the 38page student handbook, and commonly phrased as P.D.A., for
Public Display of Affection,
young men and women alike do
their best to take full advantage of
one of the few rules that is not
over-enforced on students.
Unlike other guidelines in the
handbook concerning such rules
as obtaining a pass, student l.D.'s
and in-school suspension, a simple
kiss or a walk down the hall arms
entwined is more likely to result in

a verbal reprimand rather than a
referral.
"When I went to Lance, teachers used to get upset when they
caught a guy and a girl arm in
arm or something like that. Ever

since I've been at Tremper, I've
never seen a real problem with it,"
laughed junior Dave Gallo.
The ideal location students recognized as impeccable when it
comes time to "score" is almost

always a Friday night out on the
gym floor swaying to a ballad by
Lionel Richie or Foreigner strung
out by New Voice. Although
watched regularly by faculty and
sheriffs deputies (in case worse
came to worse), students flexed
freedom as both teacher and pupil
recognized an academic week's
end and the start of weekend fun.
"I sometimes get a little shook
up when teachers start patrolling
the gym floor and mixing with us .
I think they could at least stay in
the Commons while we enjoyed
the dance," added junior Chris
Turco.
If Friday still wouldn't cut it,
there was always a night on the
town Saturday. Free from both
parental and school judgements,
love struck cupids tended to "go
for the gusto" while hoping to hit
it off and develop a long lasting
relationship.

Fifth hour, junior Dwayne Murawski and Sue Zuzinec share a P.D.A.-free laugh.

How sweet it was!
Sweet-toothed students suffered under the taut pull of administrative strings, as the sale of
candy in the classroom was prohibited in academic wings early in
the year. Always present, but never actually enforced, the ruling
caused losses to fund-raising clubs
and various organizations who
previously were accustomed to
large sales before classes and at
passing time.
Due to faculty complaints over
·students disrupting or littering
classrooms by eating candy, most
administrators soured on fundraisers and announced that all
candy sales were to occur "either
in the Commons or lunchroom
and were not to be brought into
academic wings at all."
"I think it shouldn't be allowed
in class if students keep littering
so much," remarked Frances
Werve, adviser to both the Latin
and Chess Clubs. "Candy is a

good motivator for students, but it
also causes teachers a lot of hassle
and extra clean-up."
Student reactions varied from
strong support to empathy towards the faculty and food staff.
"I can understand where it
could be a problem for the lunchroom, because lots of kids pick up
a candy bar rather than eating hot
lunch which is nutritional," added
senior Mark Johnson.
As the year progressed, fundraising sales continued outside the
classroom, teacher complaints
were less frequent, and students
grew accustomed to the newly enforced ruling.
"The effectiveness of the rule is
due mostly to teachers and some
advisers to school clubs or other
organizations in cooperation with
the student body," claimed Student Activities head Mr. Gary
Paulauskas. "It's been a real positive thing."

Prior to the candy ruling, seniors Julie Rosko
and Anne Schoor carry out a candy deal.

"One of my favorite times of
my whole year was sharing stories
with my friends back in the U.S.
of crazy things I did overseas. My
friends were really surprised at
some of the jams I got myself out
of, and so was I!" began senior
Chris Benbow. Benbow and two
other seniors, Stacy Emon and
Thad Jensen, were sponsored by
the Rotary Club of Kenosha to
spend a year in France, Australia,
and Finland.
Sarrebourg, France, was the
home of Benbow where he "parlez-vous-francaised" his way
through a "tres bien" year. While
the students were abroad, they
were expected to attend school as
well as Rotary functions .
A sports club also occupied
much of Benbow's time. "I had
the good fortune of being part of a
championship volleyball team in
my town," declared Benbow. "We
won the Eastern France tournament but lost in the second round
of the French championship."
Outside of school and sports activities, Benbow also disc jockeyed at a local nightclub. ·
"I received the job through a
connection of my host brother.
We played American and British

rock, and , even though most kids
couldn't understand the words,
they had fun ," recalled Benbow.
Stacy Emon lived in Ballina,
Australia. "School was really different in Australia; even seniors in
high school still had recess and
ate lunch on the playground! The
first class wasn't until 9 a .m . With
that, and being free by 3 p.m ., I
loved it."
Emon traveled on fifteen excursions and learned much about
Australia. "The exchange students took a 17-day tour in the
dusty, barren outback which was
very different from the coastal
town I lived in," remarked Emon.
Emon lived with four families
in Ballina. "I really loved my last
three families - they were more
friends than parents," recalled
Em on.
Finnish customs such as sauna
rituals highlighted Thad Jensen's
stay in Kaunianen, Finland. "My
favorite trip was to Lapland organized by the Rotary Club. Lapland is the home of Santa Claus,
and we exchangees were inducted
as honorary .elves on our week's
visit," reminisced Jensen .

However, it was hard to follow th
events because I could only un

Sometime the student's yea
was such an emotional high, i
pushed the harshness of reality fa
away. Jensen explained, "Just be
fore Christmas I was a witness t
a car accident where an eight
year-old boy was thrown throug
a windshield - it jerked me bac
to reality in a hurry."
Many times, natural parent

received visits from their parent
toward the end of the year. "I
was fantastic to see my mom an
dad - they finally had the chanc

ing home about for seve
months," explained Emon.
Each student came away wit
different feelings, but one senti

Emon concluded, "It was one o
the best years of my life, and I'
do it again if I could. I' ll neve

Conferences control cultural shock
"Aside from having been able
to meet other foreign students,
the two or three pre-trip meetings
helped me to adjust to my new life
in another country," declared
Stacy Emon. Emon spent her junior year in Australia and has returned to finish her senior year of
high school.
The conferences that Emon
spoke of were only a part of the
program which exchange students
experienced before departing for
their homes away from home.
These conferences consisted of
study sessions which discussed
problems such as culture shock,
homesickness, the language barrier and the ability to live with
another family or group of families.
"I was really thankful for one
discussion on culture shock that I
had a chance to sit in on. It was a
big help in being able to accept all
the cultural differences in another
part of the world. When I arrived
in a country where men carried
purses, women didn't shave, and
there was no drinking age, I have
to admit that it was a slight
change of pace," commented senior Chris Benbow, an exchange

student to France during his junior year.
"My system of learning Finnish
was very challenging and fun .
First I had a two week crash
course to learn as much of the

language as possible, and that was language previously or not," adit. On the other hand, after having ded Thad Jensen, who spent his

ent whether you've studied the living in, two rounds of interviews

also gave the student an opportunity to respond to questions concerning government, society, and
world affairs. Youth exchange
coordinator from Kenosha Rotary West Mr. Al Barber concluded that Kenosha has a strong exchange program and hoped to
continue in that direction .
"I have had the opportunity to
work with the young people in this
program for many years, and the
interest seems to be spreading. In
the last three years, all eleven candidates from Kenosha have been
accepted for the exchange program and have participated with
much enthusiasm . I sincerely wish
that this trend of interest continues and that the program will
benefit from this strong support."

S.A.D.D.
Songs

So much
Stating the facts on S.A.D.D., Jim Jones explains why drinking and driving do not mix.

"Consider this, each day 14
teenagers are killed in drunk
driving collisions, and 360
more are injured," pointed out
S.A.D.D. Director Jim Jones.
"I'm here at Tremper so that I
may spare some of you the
pain, confusion and loneliness I
went through due to alcohol."
Jones conducted several
meetings over the year in order
to pick up the support for the
Students Against Drunk Driving program. K.I.C.K.S (Kenoshans Involved with Chemicals and Kids) also kicked in a
share of publicity and backing

to help the campaign.
S.A.D.D. was founded in
Wayland, Massachussetts in
1981 and was nationally recognized when Wayland High
School's Health Education Director Bob Anastas took control in late 1982. Under him,
the widespread acceptance of
S.A.D.D. hit home with many
schools and their students.
"S.A.D.D. wouldn't have
survived these last four years if
there hadn't been some kind of
student support," remarked junior LuAnn Bauer. "Obviously
the resources are there for a

successful organization."
"It is important that the student and his or her parents arrive at an agreement," enforced Jones. "The studentparent contract is the most vital part of our program."
No bigger than a sheet of
notebook paper, the contract
consists of a mutual promise of
understanding. Students who
may get too wasted are able to
ensure themselves of a safe ride
home from mom or dad or
both! Questions are saved for
later and lectures on responsibility are set on the back

burner at least for the next 24
hours. This simple piece of paper has been proven to save
lives and prevent drunk drivers
from ever getting behind the
wheel of an automobile.
"Hopefully, S.A.D.D. won't
force you into situations in
which there is the possibility of
an argument between the parents and the students. We pray
that it will hit the kids with the
hard facts about drunk driving
and that they will be more cautious," added Jones. "Most importantly it will save lives, and
that's what we're all about."

Patriot proves
life invaluable

Playing at the 2A-2B assembly, U.S. Veteran Dave Roever recounts his trauma in
Vietnam and his victory over depression and physical handicaps.

Poised and ready to pitch a
phosphorous grenade into an enemy bunker, veteran Dave Roever
kneeled in his boat about to
launch another offensive with fellow River Patrol Division members in South Vietnam. Suddenly,
the crack of a sniper's bullet skimming Roever's grenade set off an
explosion of fire and debris that
sank his boat and pinned the soldier underneath. With phosphorous particles continuing to flame
underwater, Roever sustained
burns over 80 percent of his body
before being rescued and shuttled
to a hospital via helicopter. Over
a period of 14 months and a long
list of 15 operations, Roever almost miraculously recovered and
tours the country reminding audiences how valuable life is.
Supported by his wife and two

children that doctors said he
could never have, Roever leads a
normal life, although he has lost
vision and hearing on his right
side and the use of three fingers
and a thumb.
On Tuesday, November 13,
students laughed, clapped, cried
and cared for Roever as he recalled his tragedy and insisted
that everyone should be thankful
for what they have, even though it
may not seem like much at time.
Roever's closing melody on piano touched many students
through its power and grace.
"Mr. Roever gave me an optimistic outlook on life," commented senior Tammy Anderson. "If
he made it through all his troubles, I'm sure I can make it
through mine!"

filling cars with fuel and bags with
neces ities for a brief weekend retreat out of town.
With suitcase in one hand, fishing pole in the other, and a pack
on the back, nature lovers fled eagerly to the great outdoors. Junior
Kris Eisenhauer expressed, "It
felt great after an exhausting
week of school to go and relax in
the fresh air! My mind could be
free to wander without worrying
about pressures associated with
school."
For those with big city tastes,
the lively cities of Milwaukee and
Chicago offered entertainment in
exchange for a short drive on l94. There, window shoppers could
drown in the infinite shopping
center such as Grand A venue
Mall, Water Tower Place, Northbrook Court and Southridge. For
the sports lovers, County Stadium, The Mecca, Wrigley Field,
Comiskey Park, Chicago Stadium
and Soldier Field sported many
competitive teams. Senior Mark
Oechler commented, "As the basketball season got into full swing,
I took in a countless number of
Bucks' games since the arena was
conveniently close."
With older brothers or sisters in

college, some families took family-orientated trips to catch up on
personal news. Junior Andrea
Cornog summarized, "Going to
Twin Lakes for the weekend lets
me spend more time with my family. Sometimes during my hectic
week it is hard to spend a lot of
time with them."
Despite the most ideal weekend
plans, the dreaded Monday morning always managed to return on
time, and the only relief in sight
remained a long five days away.

Forty-eitht weekend hours blasted the monotonous school week into dances, fast-food
tops and movies for sophomore Jenny Mayer, and seniors Beth Rogan and Lisa Moser.

While a majority of students
swarmed to local hangouts, others
were content to "hit the books"
over the weekend. Whether studying for a cumulative quiz in Math
Analysis, cramming for a major
exam in Chemistry, or getting a
head start on a Comp. for College
term paper, students could often
be seen in the library, sacrificing a
cherished weekend.
As the homework load intensified with the passing weeks,
checking out the local or Parkside
library became a natural act. Because the library provided all the
gathering materials needed for
writing or research, many scholars took advantage of it. Even if
the public libraries closed, students could trudge over to the
Parkside library, which wa open
to 4 p.m. on Saturday and I 0 p.m.
on Sunday.

However, paying a visit to the
library on a sacred weekend? Junior Amy Wells responded, "Going on the weekend meant getting
a jump on a project and beating
the crowd at the same time. Because it was less crowded than a
weeknight, it was easier to find
materials; r didn't have to race
with someone to find a book."
Stopping at the library on a
weekend often resulted in a
missed dance or social gathering,
but the rewards often outweighed
the sacrifices.
"It was tough having to mi s a
dance or a party, but it's worth it
when you have completed a draft
of something. Besides, getting
your work done beats staying up
late on a Sunday night, and come
Monday morning, everyone wishes they were in my shoes," concluded junior Mark Gohlke.

DATING

Have you ever called a newly

name right during a romantic moment? Or maybe while trying to
impress a sophisticated boyfriend's parents over dinner at his
house, you spilled an entire glass
of punch, staining an antique lace
tablecloth?
Embarrassing moments often
marred otherwise good memories,
yet experiencing embarrassment
on a date surely brought out the
deepest of humiliation . For instance, one anonymous senior recalled, "I will never forget one of

trying to put my arm around her,
I punched her in the nose! I almost cried!"

"F ridays and movies are

two things that go together," commented junior Jill Nelson. The only controversy then
was the real thing or VCR.
Cinema 5 and Market Square
were still demanding a whopping
four dollars for movie goers to see
such box-office smashes as The
Flamingo Kid and Beverly Hill's
Cop. In response to that big-buck
price tag, students finally convinced mom and dad to jump on
the home video band -wagon,
heading towards a new phase in
home entertainment.
"It's cheaper to stay at home,"
commented senior Pam Artz.
"The movie only costs around two
dollars and as many people as you
want can come over to see it."
Video rental stores' business literally locked into "fast forward"

Hujik.
In addition to renting movies
and the ever-popular "work-out"
exercise cassettes, music fans also
scooped up living room style front
row seats to concerts starring The
Police, The Who or David Bowie.
These concert cassettes were music to VCR owners ears as actual
concert tickets had drained students' wallets of up to $35 a piece.
Jamming to live rock tacked on
miles too; either Chicago or Milwaukee was the typical performance location.
On the negative side, VCRs
were regarded as just another
means of entertainment by some
parents who insisted that square
eyeballs would result from continuous viewing. Watching "Late
Night With David Letterman"
reruns that had been recorded the
night before, students reeled off
more viewing hours.
Most students, though, found
useful ways in which to use VCRs
as well. Earlier in the year when
students from English classes

caught Breaking A way, VCRs
came into play as absentees rented the cassette to catch up at
home. Final tests reflected VCR

"When I missed a day of
Breaking A way, I was worried
that I wouldn't understand the
rest of the movie. Luckily, Allendale Video had a film in for me to

rent," added junior Dianne An·

Just as any new application,
both the pros and cons rendered
logical reasons. Will the VCR become as standard as other home
appliances, or will an innovation
with even more capabilities entice
student movie buffs?

playing at night and
practice sessions, Griffin synthesized for music classes and jazz
ensemble at Parkside. Music Theory and Music Composition head
his schedule. "Music Composition
is a one on one class with the professor and helps me write my own
contemporary music. I also get a
chance to write my own music at
home with my old synthesizers,"
explained Griffin.
Griffin's next step is to stick

with the band for the end of their
contract at Rumors and to keep
up with updated technology in
music equipment. "Right now
we're planning to buy new loudspeakers, mixers and a synthesizer. It seems every time I buy a
new piece of equipment, a better
one appears on the market," Griffin concluded. After the days at
Rumors expire, Griffin flirts with
the idea of going to a music school
and possibly forming his own
band.

Although early commencement
emerged as an alternative to going
through the routines for Griffin
and seven other seniors, the process for receiving it was not simple. Beginning the second semester of one's junior year, the prospective candidate filled out an
application stating his intention
for leaving school early. "We
have to have a good idea of what
the student is planning to do in
order to grant him early graouation, that's why we make the student explain what his intentions
are such as early schooling in college or special job opportunities,"
explained Principal Mr. Richard
Regner.
In spite of gaining a head start
in college, technical training or
employment, some students en· 1
countered disadvantages. Midterm grads had to wait until May
31 to receive diplomas and awards
for service, academics and music.
Also being excluded from organized school activities meant sacraficing athletics, clubs school
dances and field trips. "Although
I missed going to dances and oth·

ior's social life, I felt getting 15
hours of credit at Parkside would
be a lot more important in the
long run," reflected senior Rox·

Meeting difficult guidelines

As most of the student body

were tuning up bodies-car bodies.
Rolling in at 6:30 a.m., the early
birds who had coasted through
the prerequisite of Power Mech l
rolled up their sleeves for two
hours of dirty work.
These senior guys in Vocational
Power Mech enjoyed first priority
for working on their cars. In addition, the two hour class lengthened concentration on more complex mechanical tasks. "I thought
Vocational Power Mech was the
easiest class of my schedule since
I got two credits for doing something I really enjoy," senior Mike
Turner recalled.
While Vocational Power Mech
was the only early bird class, the
administration explored early
bird classes in all academic areas
to reduce overloaded schedules
for 1985-86. On Feb. 19, Dr. Audrey Haines surveyed faculty for
those willing to accept flexible
hours to include either zero hour
or eighth hour. Students also received a notice which tallied who
had jobs and the time when shifts
started. Since quite a number be-

gan work after supper, the administration decided to offer a limited
number of eigth hour classes to
complement zero hour.
By announcing potential class
openings in the fall, the administration planned to fill alloted
courses on a first come, first serve
basis. The early to arrive got the
early classes.

Thanks to the library's extended hours, junior Scott Grundy finishes up his U.S. History
research paper before the first hour classes arrive.

Early bird gets the bookworm
Jumping in the shower at 5:30
a.m., some students found themselves preparing to trudge over to
school earlier than the 7:30 norm.
Due to increasing demands in
graduation requirements, new library hours were established on
January 28. The hours of 7 a.m. to
3 p.m. were extended from 6:30
a.m. to 4 p.m.
After rumors of new credit requirements became a reality, parents phoned school requesting
that the administration expand library hours for the benefit of the
students. "Before the new library

hours, if you didn't have a study
hall and arrived at school late,
you could forget about getting
anything done in the library,"
commented sophomore Carla
Huxhold.
The response to these new
hours was moderate, as students
could be seen before and after
school gathering material and copying items. "Most of the people I
see come in before 3 p.m., but a
few can be seen as long as 3:30 to
3:45. Our hours, at this time, are
on a trial basis," informed librarian Miss Jean Shultz.

Because of the extended hours,
Miss Schultz and head librarian
Mr. Phillip Bruno shifted their
work schedules. Mr. Bruno
manned the first shift, punching
in at 6:30 a.m. and clocking out at
l :30 p.m., while Miss Schultz
checked in at 8:40 a.m. and
checked out at 4:10 p.m.
Junior Scott Grundy concluded, "I think that the new library
hours were convenient because I
could just go in before or after
school. Sometimes during the day
it's hard to find time to get a pass
and go there."

A.M.C. shifts into reverse
"I have visions of 20 years from
now taking my kids to see Kenosha, the town where mommy grew
up, only to find empty houses,
stores and buildings, and tumble
weeds blowing up and down 75th
Street," said junior Kris Long.
This thought threatened to become a reality when a May 24
A.M.C. concession deadline hit
Kenosha.
On November 30, Cletus Williams Jr., a Kenosha lawyer who
was president of the Greater Kenosha Development Corp., assembled leaders in business, banking
and education to organize a task
force. The force secured one common goal, keep A.M.C. in Kenosha at least until 1990.
From 1980 through 1984,
A.M.C. lost $651 million, while
G.M., Ford and Chrysler profited
in the billions. Yet, on May 16, 83
percent of A.M.C.'s union employees voted not to accept the

concessions needed to keep the
plant buckled up in Kenosha.
However, they did vote to open
June 3 negotiations to address
A.M.C. concession demands.
A.M.C. management cited 14
concessions in wage cuts, working
rules and vacation benefits.
A.M.C. proposed the "G.M.-like"
contract conditions to all salaried
and non-salaried employees in a
May 3-dated letter.
A. M .C.'s profit loss, layed-off
workers and rejected concessions
forced Kenosha to question the
city's future. Kenosha's youth
knew that they would soon have
the green light and be able to
move on with their lives. "I do
care about Kenosha, but I'm glad
that I'll be getting out of here
soon. I have no intentions of coming back here to raise my family,"
commented junior Esther Marianyi.

in landslide
In the GOP's biggest electoral win since

1936, President Reagan claimed 49 states.

President Reagan won reelection in a record landslide,
capturing 49 states and grabbing
525 electoral votes to Walter
Mondale's 13 on Nov. 6.
The 73-year-old clobbered
Mondale in the GOP's biggest
electoral victory ever, winning a
mandate similar to the one voters gave Democrat Franklin
Roosevelt in 1936.
"This is not the end of anything. It's the beginning of
everything," Reagan exclaimed
to loyalists as they celebrated
the overwhelming vote which
gave him four more years to carry out his "revolution of the
right."

Reagan, the oldest man elected president, closed by telling
the throng, "You ain't seen
nothin' yet!" - a slogan he
made the trademark of his campaign.
Mondale, who broke the barrier for women to run for high
offices, chose running mate Geraldine Ferraro. He also decided
to throw in the towel for future
elective office campaigns.
"When Ferraro came here, I
thought it showed that Kenosha
would be important for Mondale-Ferraro campaign possibilites for winning the state vote,"
added junior Rolf Schmitz.

Rapist or
victim?
On April 4, Cathleen Crowell
Webb claimed her charge that
Gary Dotson raped her was fictitious. Webb had accused Dotson
in 1977 of rape, and in a 1979
trial, Dotson was convicted and
sentenced for a 25 to 50 year stint
at the Joliet Correctional Center.
With Webb's new testimony,
Dotson exulted in a week of freedom as he posted $10,000 of a
$100,000 bond.
Webb, who proclaimed her
newfound faith in God prompted
her to free her guilty conscience,
insisted she fabricated the story
because she feared her boyfriend
had impregnated her.
On Fritlay, April 12, however,
Dotson marched back to his cell
after an April 11 hearing in which
Circuit Judge Richard L. Samuels rejected arguments that Dotson was wrongly convicted. Samuels believed the testimony of
Webb, then 17, when he presided
at Dotson's rape trial, but he did

residents' recantation.

tently pledged to help get Dotson
out of prison. Passing a lie detector test, Webb once again attempted to prove Gary Dotson
was innocent. Illinois Governor
James Thompson reserved the
right to pardon Dotson or grant
executive clemency. A pardon
would erase his conviction; execu-

tive clemency would release him
on grounds he has been punished
enough. "It scares me to think
someone could lie like that to relieve a personal problem by creating a false testimony. I guess being so close to Kenosha makes
this whole thing more real," commented junior Tony Ventura.

Major Arthur Donald Nicholson Jr. was accompanied by a
sergeant who was also fired upon
during the incident in Ludwigslust, 85 miles northwest of Berlin.
The Russian news agency
"Tass" explained Nicholson was
discovered breaking into a Soviet military installation and taking photos. According to the
Russians, a sentry warned Nicholson to stop in both German
and Russian languages. When
Nicholson fled, the soldier fired
a warning shot in the air. Still
failing to stop, Nicholson was
gunned down.
Defense Secretary, Caspar
Weinburger was convinced that
the shooting was totally an unjustified act. He alleged Nicholson was shot without warning,
then allowed to lie wounded for
a lengthy period of time without
medical treatment while his
driver was forced to remain in
his car. He added that a few
days earlier "the Soviets had an
observer in our area where he
wasn't supposed to be but we
treated him totally differently."
Assistant Secretary of State,
Richard Burt claimed the
charges that Nicholson was spying were false. Nicholson's mission was to monitor Soviet activities. Junior Chana Farr commented, "I think Nicholson
shouldn't have gotten shot. A
trip to prison or some other punishment would have been more
civilized."
Nicholson, a Russian linguist
assigned to the liaison mission
based at Potsdam in East Germany, was the first to be killed
in the line of duty by Soviet
troops.

On Thursday, March 21, riot
police opened fire on 4,000 black
marchers, killing 17 of them and
wounding 22 when demonstrators
neared a white town on the 25th
anniversary of the Sharpeville
massacre. "Bodies were piled up
on each other," verified a witness.
"Plainly, it was cold-blooded
murder."
Stories bounced back and forth
from both sides of the racially
segregated nation about the origin
of the conflict. The government
responded that marchers stoned a
19-man police patrol and police
retaliated with 27 shotgun shells,
ten pistol bullets and six rifle bullets. Black witnesses backed that
police fired without provocation,
however, and marchers were going to a memorial service for the
69 blacks killed in Sharpeville
during an anti-apartheid demonstration in 1960.
Following the shooting, witnesses accounted that firemen
hosed blood off the corpses and
police and ambulances took away
the dead and injured.

About 1:50 p.m. near a southbound No.2 train north of Chambers Street in New York City,

"self-defensive" and then downright murderous.

New life

Jarvik-7 ----A nervous and excited Bill Schroeder was discharged from
Humana Hospital Audubon in Louisville, Saturday, April 6,
to a patient halfway house across the street. He was noted as
the first mechanical heart man to live outside of a hospital.
Although the move fell short of returning to his hometown
of Jaspar, Ind., Schroeder punched his right fist in the air
when asked by reporters how he felt.
Humana, which ran Audubon and paid for Schroeder's
mechanical heart implant Nov.25, had asked reporters not to
question the Schroeders in the hope of limiting excitement
surrounding his long-delayed discharge.
In an emergency-including a failure of the mechanical heart
or a reoccurrence of the paralyzing stroke
Schroeder suffered Dec.13-help was not far.
Nurses lived in an adjacent apartment and the twostory, four-unit house was linked with the hospital
by special equipment.
Dr. William C. DeYries, who implanted all three
permanent artificial hearts, commented that Mrs.
Schroeder's judgement would govern how much
nursing care her husband would require. DeVries'
third mechanical heart patient, Murray P. Haydon, 58, of Louisville was still recovering at Audubon from his Feb.17 implant.
Mechanical heart pioneer, Barney Clark, received the world's first permanent artificial heart
Dec.2, 1982, but was never healthy enough to leave
the University of Utah medical center in Salt Lake
City. "It's great to see someone is finally living
through an artificial heart transplant. It's an accomplishment that will add years to many people's
lives, not to mention boosting medical technology,"
summarized junior Jerry Delaney.

While Bernard Goetz (center) awaited a court order for
attempted murder, Cathleen Webb (left) recinds her

across the country stressing that
all citizens must be prepared to
stand up to crime and stomp on it
once and for all.
"I think Goetz had every right
in doing what he did," commented junior Kate Wavro, "It was
pure self-defense."
However, as more and more
evidence was revealed, Goetz's
plea of self-defense was torn apart
by the opposition as the victim's
stories finally reached authorities
as well as the press. The four
youths claimed Goetz, when see-

ing one of the boys was not injured badly enough, shot him
again.
As the case headed closer to
trial, tables turned as Goetz was
suddenly catagorized under such
labels as "madman" and "murderer." The four youths who
asked Goetz for $5 began to gain
sympathy as "kids off the street"
and products of misspent childhoods.
"The public has to understand
that kids off the street may ask for
a few bucks to get by, but that's

no reason to shoot them," stressed
senior Mike Herrick.
In the end, the classic "good
guy-bad guy" rivalry had matured
into a nationwide battle between
self-defense and cold-blooded
murder. Some viewed the story in
favor of Goetz claiming the four
youths were out to hurt him, while
others believed he acted in an unlawful, uncivilized manner. This
case once again sparked debate
about whether or not citizens
should take the law into their own
hands.

Proceeds for the dance were

Senioritis arouses academic abandon
Easygoing, laidback, and relaxed
were symptomatic of a student
struck by "senioritis." It was contagious, outrageous, and struck at
a varying degree, smacking its
victims at different times.
Breaking up the term "senioritis" gave a sense of its foreboding
nature. Webster defined "senior"
as "a student in the year preceding graduation" and "-itis" as
"forced endurance of something."
Senior Roxanne Anderson commented, "I think I caught it the
summer after my junior year every day just brings me closer to
graduation."
The excuses some students
came up with to stay home ranged
from the bizarre to the believable.
"Mom, I'm sick! What's
wrong? - Everything! I just don't
feel good;" early morning scenarios similar to this plagued the
homes of many seniors. "Sometimes, especially once Spring arrived, I'd come up with the most
unique twenty-four hour diseases
just so I could spend a day away
from school - it was a good way
to catch up on the soaps, too!"
laughed senior Debbie Holland.
Senioritis hits each individual
at different times, but, for some, it
struck prematurely. They initiat-

ed plans for graduation after the
first semester of their senior year
during their junior year. "I guess
there were two reasons that I
wanted to graduate after first semester. One, it gave me the
chance to get a full:time job to
save some money for college, and
two, I was sick of school!" remarked senior Hope Gailb aith.

Early dismissal illustrated yet
another facet of senioritis. "I really like getting out at I :30. It
makes me feel like a senior because everyone else is still sitting
in their classes," offered senior
Kari Gotelaere.
For some students, however,
early dismissal did not materialize

As the June 6 graduation approaches, far too slowly for some, senior Laurie Fisher gaze
longingly at the date which will relieve her from the clutches of "senioritis."

student's senior year; senioritis
strikes again! Senior Dan Becker
declared, "School tends to get
really boring toward the end of
the year, especially now that I'm a
senior and graduation seems closer and closer. I tried to get early
dismissal for second semester, but
I couldn't swing it."
Some seniors savored the taste
of summer during their spring
break vacation, yet another way
to relieve that dreaded disease!
The trips that were enjoyed by
these students ranged from two
weeks in Florida to a weekend in
Chicago. "My two girlfriends and
I were planning our trip to Texas
for months - I just had to take a
break from school," recalled senior Heidi Fluhrer.
Although most seniors were exhilarated at the thought of tearing
up old term papers and not having
to fear pop quizzes in Mr. Tuttle's
physics class, many felt a twinge
of nostalgia when they roamed the
corridors those last few times or
began to disrobe their decorated
lockers. Once high school faded,
senior quenched all raging effects of senioritis. The incidents
which made up daily life slipped
aside to become odd occurrances
of Deja Vu.

Procrastination: 'save it for later'
Whether practicing golf, stocking shelves at Kohl's or indulging
in sheer laziness, the infamous
procrastinator molded his time
schedule around extracurricular
activities. Late nights and early
mornings marked the weekly reality of putting school work off
until the last minute.
"Track practice takes up a lot
of time. Sometimes I never ge

home until 6 p.m., by that time
I'm too pooped out to do anything
else .. . except sleep," commented junior Natalie Hujik. Athletes,
in particular, battled fatigue in
the procrastination cycle. Homework did not seem that important
to an exhaust d tudent.

day's repertoire of Night Court,
Cheers, and Hill Street Blues intensified the procrastinator's
struggle. "I don't care how much
homework I have, but there is no
way in the world that I am going
to miss Dynasty," stressed junior
Lisa Thompson. "I guess daytime soaps just aren't enough gossip," she laughed.
Employment was the best excuse to use if that late night assignment was not yet in. "Sometimes I have to get up extra early
in the morning just to finish a few
algebra problems, if I had worked
at Sentry the night before,"
moaned junior Rick Frederick.
"I really wish teachers wouldn't
assign so much homework. Just
because I am in the honors program, it shouldn't mean that I
should have twice the homework.
Honor students have jobs, too!"
stre sed junior Mark Totts.
That often tedious term paper
topped the procrastinator's list. "I
ow my paper counts an awful
lot of my grade, but I just can't
get myself to start up on it until
the week before it is due," complained senior Cliff Olson. The
"putter-offer" had better things
to do, such as cashing in on buck
night at Cinema V or going to the

K.Y.F. to shoot a few baskets.
"I swear, fourth quarter is going to be my absolute best."
stressed junior Scott Stein. How
many times has this phrase been
repeated? This and a long list of
others, all meant the same thing:
put it off for later. The student
always psyched up for the next
quarter. Once in the new quarter,
the student fell into a rut, and by
the next quarter he swore the
same commitment.
Teachers got sick and tired of
those "beggers" needing just one
more day to complete the assignment. "I really do think the students are just testing me to see
how far I will really go. By next
time, they will try to squeeze a
little more time out of me,"
laughed U.S. History teacher Mr.
Chuck Bradley.
According to the Kenosha
News, the average person has
procrastinated four and one-half
months out of the year. That totaled over one-fourth of a person's
time spent on thinking of excuses
about getting out of the work that
really should be done. "I tend to
put things off quite frequently, I
just leave myself a little slack, just
enough for me to get by," confessed junior Pat Ohlen.

Dieters swallow fad dish cutbacks
Hitting the top ten on the lists
of priorities for many teens was
being "in," that is, staying trim.
Many students grew conscious of
those extra-unwanted pounds
when others mentioned diet. They
often resorted to fad diets to lose
that bothersome five.
As the winter season crept up,
pounds crept on. Tremperites,
popping down a bowl of popcorn,
stayed indoors instead of getting
out for an afterschool game of
"hoops" or a bike ride to a nearby
friends house. The holiday season
only intensified appetites as students indulged themselves with
Christmas cookies, fudge and
stuffed turkey. Parties and celebrations often overwhelmed will
power as calorie counts toppled
the charts.
Diets, like fads, were in and
then out again. Types of cutbacks
ranged from the ever-so-popular
crash diet to the water diet. The
crash diet consisted of going with-

118

Dieting

out eating for days, or as long as
fasting could last. Following this
reduction in appetite, the student
usually splurged, gaining back all
the weight that was lost, sometimes even more.
Other dieters, hoping to
squeeze back into those Levi's,
popped pills and diet chocolates
to curb voracious appetites and
growling stomachs.
Television advertisements suggested pills that melted away the
fat while sleeping. Also, students
experimented with the Cambridge
diet, the Grapefruit 45 diet and
diet drinks.
For those who could live like
camels, consuming eight to ten
glasses of liquid a day, the water
diet helped shed unwanted
pounds.
Others lost weight through getting rid of water by sweating it
off. Since wrestling demanded
keeping consistant weight, many
wrestlers had to drop as much as

fifteen pounds to make a desired
weight class. The method used by
some was to eat a full meal, then
throw it up, eating only for the
taste of it. "Although coaches are
always against it, a few of the
guys on the team threw up their
meals to lose weight. I lost nineteen pounds by working out with
extra clothes on and going without eating," added junior Dan
Wikel.
For many these faddy diets
proved very successful, yet for
others these weight loss methods
simply meant frustration and
wasted time on trial-and-error dieting. "The best way for me to cut
those extra pounds was to cut
back on sweets and eating between meals," commented j uni or
Tami Ironside.
Checking her weight, junior prospective
blood donor Kris Long skims the scale for
the minimum 110 pound elegibility.

Fashion keen teens venture into sprees
Remote from the monotonous
weekend excitement of driving
around and scanning for action,
anxious student bargainers ventured on shopping sprees for the
latest craze in fashion . From a
survey of 45 sophomores, 75 juniors and 63 seniors, 75 percent
chose to pile into cars and head
for top-notch, out-of-town, indoor
malls .
Those shopping sites towering
in rank were Grand A venue,
Southridge and Hawthorn, although Regency Mall was only a
mere 20 miles away. The big city
atmosphere, hand in hand with its
immense malls, influenced shoppers to drive the extra miles to
Milwaukee or Chicago.
"I find shopping in Milwaukee
more adventurous. One time at
Grand Avenue, I saw the T .V.
star who played Gerry Robinson
on the Bob Newhart Show. My
friends and I immediately began
to follow him around for at least
I 0 minutes! Finally, we got the
courage to confront him, and we
ended up having a really nice conversation with him . . . But I
guess that something like that can
only happen in Milwaukee!" exclaimed junior Gina Carravetta .
Adventure was not the only

122

Shopping

thing pursued by the youths on
their out of town trips. Fashion
smart teens slipped into the most
popular clothing establishments.
Boston Store at Grand A venue
and at Regency Mall was preferred by 35 percent of both the
male and female wardrobe hunters. Comparable to th at, Bergners
in Regency Mall attracted 23 percent of the student shoppers.
Of course, in order to don the
latest rage in fashion , shoppers
had to be financially secured or
have parents that were willing to
hand over plenty of spending
bucks. Although 57 percent chose
to stuff less than $50 into their
wallets, 43 percent admitted to
splurging fifty bucks or more on
countless shopping binges.
Female purchasers had a tendency to be more lenient with
their biweekly clothes payroll. To
find them shopping for a new
wardrobe four to six times a
month, spending $30 or more on a
single sweater or on a pair of jeans
was, in fact, a 56 percent reality.
The guys, however, were pacified as the clerk tallied a $25 total
per crack. Most only hit the malls
and shopping centers twice a
month, and 39 percent of the sen- Browsing through the packed racks, sophomore Demere Kentcy inspects Izods.
ior guys found it more convenient

to blow some bucks at local department stores such as Sears,
Shopko and K-mart.
"Being in" ranked high among
the fashion smart shoppers.
Whether it was a flourescent
sweatshirt, a studded belt or fingerless gloves, students justified
draining their pocket books. Outdated designer labels were now
overshadowed by Espirt, Forenza
and Generra logos. Female investers elected Lee and Forenza as
"numero uno." To the contrary,
male tastes opted the traditional
Levis, and 42 percent slipped into
Lee and Generra brand names.
The preppy fad that had crazed
Tremperites' tastes only a year
ago with its Izod tops was stripped
from the scene, and colorful Esprit coordinating outfits along
with Georgio Marciano's Guess
line swooned in and took over.
"I used to be crazy about Izod
anything. I still like the alligator,
but I'd prefer Esprit over it any
day," proclaimed junior Kate
Wavro.
·
In the final look at the latest
fashion race, shopping garbed students in Guess and spruced them
up in neon Esprit.

"Winning the state under sixPlaying in his first tournament

to work on my game in an attempt beginning of Munroe's instant
to be seeded among the top junior racquetball success. Held in his
players in the country," stated home club, the Racquetball and
sophomore Brad Munroe.
Fitness Club of Kenosha, the

Prepping for the Kenosha County Open on April 12-14, sophomore Brad Munroe works
on his forehand smash at the Racquetball and Fitness Club of Kenosha.

State Line Open had Munroe listed in the "C" division. Overcoming first tournament jitters, Munroe won his first match. Gaining
confidence, he swept through the
next four matches and took the
division. A tournament win under
his belt merely whetted Munroe's
appetite for more competition.
After spending endless hours at
the Racquetball and Fitness Club
of Kenosha, Munroe traveled
from tournament to tourn$lment,
whipping his opposition, and rarely losing a match. Munroe had
tallied an impressive tournament
record, racking up months of
wins. On this winning rampage,
Munroe made a name for himself
as one of the top junior players in
the state.
Munroe dedicated ten to 15
hours a week improving his game.
A popular drill for Munroe was to
place a can against the front wall,
then attempt to hit it. This drill
drastically improved his overall
control. "A weakness in my game
used to be my backhand, but the
many hours that I spent improving it changed it from my weakness to one of my stronger
points," commented Munroe.
Munroe has played racquetball
for about three and a half years.
He began playing at the Racquetball and Fitness Club of Kenosha.

Learning the game from his dad
and brothers, Munroe picked up
the finer points of the game. "My
brothers and dad made me work
harder because when I lost by a
lot, I'd hear about it at home,"
added Munroe.
The experience, practice time
and lessons paid off as competition at Munroe's caliber grew
scarce in the area. Thus, Munroe
frequently made trips to Racine,
Milwaukee and even Madison to
find players in his skill bracket.
"Playing against players from Kenosha always gave me a good
match, but traveling throughout
Southeastern Wisconsin to play
some of the best players in the
state really made a difference in
my game," recalled Munroe.
Playing against the best racquetball player in the country was
one of Munroe's most memorable
moments on the court. Though
Hogan blew Munroe away, just
playing against someone at that
caliber was a great opportunity.
He rated this chance after winning yet another tournament, the
Menomonee Falls "Marty Hogan
Pro Am."
"My goal is to be one of the top
players in Wisconsin. Though I'm
seeded as a junior player, I would
like to boost my ranking to a higher level," concluded Munroe.

Determined wrestler pins handicap
Paralyzed, as Webster's defines
is "to make powerless or inactive"; this is not sophomore Gary
Nephew. Wrestler, bench press
"junkie" and student characterized Nephew. He is able to walk
short distances with the assistance
of leg braces and aluminum
crutches. With a $1000 batterypowered wheel chair as his mode
of transportation, Nephew is
somewhat restricted, but as he
sees it, he is well-adjusted. "When
I was born with spinalbifida, I
learned to adjust and accept the
minor difficulties that are constantly arising," stated Nephew.
Nephew's only special privileges consist of elevator use and
five -minute early dismissal from
each class. "I'm not looking to be
treated 'special', but just like everyone else," stated Nephew.
Commons' sessions such as

bake sales, college representatives
and class ring sales played an important role in the high school experience. Realizing this, Nephew
contacted Student Congress,
along with Mr. Regner, and requested a wheelchair ramp leading down three steps to the sunken
social center. Cutting through red
tape and building codes, construction by Mr. Ron Carver's second
hour woods class began at the
start of second semester.

Fans' spirit a red and blue washout?
School spirit. Is that sign flipping for a football team who almost made it to state finals? Or, is
it cheering on the soccer team
that did go to State? Is it watching a school play? Or, is it for
debaters against other state qualifying teams?
"That's two more points scored
by Andy Schmidtmann to make
the score 48-42!" the basketball
announcer, Fred Tenuta, exclaimed. However, his remarks
aroused little applause, for the
stands were half empty at the

game.
Friday night empty stands prevailed as the proverbial student

A survey of 170 sophomores,
juniors and seniors illustrated
over 50 percent felt that school
spirit was on the slope downward.
Senior Cheryl Wentland commented, "I think that school spirit
has declined quite a bit, but it's
not too late to get it back. Everyone turned out for the football
games-the stands were always
packed! Basketball is another story, though."
When the surveyed students
were asked what extracurricular

activities they preferred, sports
events ranked number one with 75
percent of them. Other winning
activities were designated as
plays, clubs and musical events.
In spite of these responses to
extracurriculars, 35 percent of the
surveyed students seldom attended these and 18 percent never attended. Senior Sara Madson suggested, "If there were more events
to promote spirit weeks and contests in the Commons, people
would probably become more involved in school activities."

Remaining absent from school
functions did not go without reason; however, strict rules were often cited as an excuse. "I'd rather
not go to games because the rules
are too strict, and it ruins all the
fun," offered junior Bob Oglesby.
This attitude was shared by 40
percent of the students questioned.
School spirit clearly deteriorated when the job scene was introduced. Of the 170 students surveyed, 46 percent had jobs.
Other excuses included the

Forty percent of the people

to belong to more clubs and try

These opinions were not shared

Crazed crowning of a purple Prince
"His songs were so popular, I
think even more so in Kenosha
than in Racine, that it got to the
point where we had to remove his
songs from nightly requests for
the 'Top 5 at 10'. They were continually taking the top spots and
were not giving other songs a
chance," remarked disc jockey
Zach Harris of WRKR radio.
Who was this mysterious man
of purple dominating music
charts everywhere? It was Prince
Rogers Nelson hitting the top
spots with songs like "When
Doves Cry", "Let's Go Crazy,"
"Purple Rain" and his smash
summer hit movie Purple Rain.
Mainstream Records of Kenosha sold 245 Purple Rain albums
over the summer as well as singles
from it, especially those peaking
at number one.
The movie was just as captivating to fans as the album. Roosevelt Theatre indicated it attracted
mostly young adults where its stay
of one week drew in 2, 185 viewers. In addition, Cinema 5 successfully showed the film for five
weeks.
Prince's enormous success in
both music and theatre in just a
few short summer months skied
him to overnight fame . His purple
reign continued into the '84-'85
school year. At sockhops, New

Voice Radio spun out as many as
4-5 Prince hits by request.
A concert tour was announced
for December. Prince "idolizers"
dashed to the Ticketron outlet at
Sears in hopes of obtaining tickets, many only to be sadly let
down. Within 24 hours, nearly all
the tickets Sears had were sold
with the exception of those behind
stage with obstructed view.

"I rushed to Sears right after
school the day they went on sale
only to find that even all the halfway decent seats were sold," regretfully stated sophomore Kris
Rhey.
Concert goers, mostly teens,
who could not purchase tickets,
put forth their last, determined efforts by attempting to win them.
Radio stations, such as WRKR

and WKTI raffled tickets to a
small number of fans who took a
shot at having their name drawn
or being the correct caller, riding
only on luck.
From sockhops to the concert
tour, the red and blue of Tremperites blended right into Purple

Rain.

Dodging homework, junior Andrea Cornog keeps up with the latest while tuning into Prince's "I Would Die For You."

Slang bang of 'totally awesome' gang
"Hey, make my day ... get a
life . . . let's blow this popsicle
stand ... " This was the slang
bang of the 1984-85 high school
gang.
Similar to fads, certain slang
expressions and words bombarded
the high school scene with amazing popularity. Phrases such as
"you're history" or "get a life"
surfaced in the students' language, and it was not difficult for
these expressions to circulate rapidly through the school either.
When the in-crowd caught on to
the lingo, they molded it into their
own dialect, and soon it rubbed
off onto the language of others.
Shortly it became overused and
no longer did it linger amongst the
crowd.
Like those fads that faded out
of the picture, current slang also
bit the dust. Phrases such as "take
off, you hoser" or "well, excu-u-uuse me!" tripped through the halls
during the Steve Martin and
McKenzie Brothers' obsession.
However, as these dwindled from
the scene, newly innovated sounds
like "you're outa here" or "you're
awesome" slyly sauntered into the
slang scam. "Just about every day
a new saying jumps into the classroom and manages to make its
way around the school," com-

mented junior Kate Wavro.
Despite the fact that slang had
been considered a passing fad of
language, many students had no
conception of how much slang
they actually used. Expressions
such as boyfriend, girlfriend,

deadbeat and double-cross had infiltrated daily conversation; once
these were "hip" expressions of
the in-crowd's slang.
Slang was a language of both
humor and vulgarity. Because of
comedian/actor Eddie Murphy,

best buddies ceased to "face"
each other with a higher test
score. Instead, they converted to
"psyche" friends by teasingly
withholding a sip of pop.
"Although it is fun to hear new
words when they first come out,
people often get carried away and
become too repetitioous, said
sophomore Heather Sargent.
Only when a new phrase came
along were "the guys" able to detach themselves from the broken
record habit. Then, of course, the
dilemma began all over again until it reached monotony.
Slang cemented a language for
teens. Nearly all slang was limited
to a particular group, clique or
team. From the easy goers with
their "du-u-u-de" to the academic
aces showing them up with
phrases such as "petulant, just
petulant," a variety of Jingo was
encountered within the passing
from Mr. McCarthy's Spanish 4
to Mr. Tuttle's Physics I.
Whether "you 're groovy" or
"totally awesome," slang spiraled
in a never ending cycle. In 20
years when the 1985 graduate
says "get a life," he will no doubt
be met with "That turkey is really
out of it!" reactions from the new
generation .

Buttering up the mediocre grade?
"Can I please pass out those
test papers, Ms. Werve?" "Boy
Mr. Bradley, you sure look exceptionally nice today, and by the
way, I think your new haircut
looks great on you!"
Flattering comments like these
also drifted through Mr. Glynn's
Chemistry and Mr. Covelli's
Symphonic Band class. Whether
the praising conniver was attempting to obtain better grades
or to just be a buddy with his
teacher, the brown-nosing kid hid
another trick up his sleeve. Those
extra essay test, composition or
class participation points often
pushed that borderline B up in the
desirable A bracket. "My brownnosing techniques have certainly
paid off. All I do is laugh it up
with my teachers, and I can practically get away with murder!"
confessed senior Ray Martinez.
It did not take an extremely
creative person to cajole favors
from his instructor. All that it required was a complimentary comment on the teacher's apparel or
an occasional laugh at repetitious,
not-so-humorous jokes from time
to time.
"It took me a while to figure
out how a typical teacher's mind
works. I had all kinds, mean ones
as well as nice ones. Now I can

teachers, and 1 know how to behave and just what to say," remarked junior Scott Stein.
The ancient advice still held
true: "practice makes perfect."
The brown-noser obviously had
to try out different methods of
wheedling before he found the exact line that caught his teacher's
admiration. The student swindler
kept the scoring phrase in the
back of his mind for use at that
right moment.
After smooth talking with one's
teacher, little no-no's became

quite all right, and the student's
wrongdoings were railroaded.
"One time I accidently swore, and
everybody heard me, including
my teacher. I thought I was dead,
but the teacher acted as if he
didn't hear me. If it had been one
of my other teachers, BAMM!
Right down to I 09!" recalled
sophomore Brenda Payne.
Performing special favors and
running errands for the instructor
classified the student in another
brown-nosing category. Even
though oral flattery was not a part
of this scholar's curry favoring,

more brownie points were chalke
on the student's slate.
Despite witnessing many re
fined brown-nosing techniques
teachers insisted that the stu

Controversial ruling cuts out cut-offs
"Young man! Young man!"
was heard from behind this slightly offended and completely bewildered senior. "Young man, what
are the rules on proper attire?"
stressed the administrator. "The
rule says shorts may be worn to
school if they are not offensive by
their length," spouted this confident senior. However, the new
rule nailed the heretofore confident senior. The rule stated that
shorts were "inappropriate school
wear and not to be worn."
"I think that it's inhumane to
make students sit in a hot school
with no form of relief. And the no
shorts rule makes it that much
more inhumane," stated junior
Molly Kutzke.
With the absence of an air conditioning system, and the temperature rising to 100 degrees on
August 30, students wearing
shorts extending as far as the knee
were sent home to change into appropriate school clothing. The
school board's reason for inflicting this rule on the students was to
avoid a possible distraction during
class time.
Are shorts any more "distracting" than the some of the miniskirts that many girls wear? "I

don't think the no shorts rule is
right, but I certainly don't think
that wearing a mini-skirt is
wrong," voiced junior Andrea
Cornog.
The real question is not whether the student body should be allowed to wear shorts to school,
but how much control should the
school board have over the student's dress.
As stated in the school board

policy manual, the student attire will be sent home by the
grooming rule is: "when the dress principal for appropriate wearing

the Kenosha Unified Schools go
with the times. In the 1964-1965
handbook, students were restricted from wearing "blue jeans,
sweatshirts and untucked shirt
tails." Shorts were beyond question. During 1974-1975, the "let it
be" years, specific student dress
was avoided, stating only "extremes in grooming are frequently
symptoms of social maladjustment."
The 1984-1985 student dress
code is reminiscent of " Back to
Basics" philosophy that has saturated the nation, an almost Deja
of the 60's.

Before September's no-shorts, senior Ivan Ireland plays hacky sack at NSPA camp.

Detention deters negative intention
Always, there will be a silent
majority who feels rules were
meant to be broken. Yet, when
these rules were broken, punishing consequences were faced. This
punishment consisted of a minimum of an hour after school in
the cafeteria. The so-called extracurricular class usually drew anywhere from 60 to 90 students at a
session. The prerequisites of this
class varied greatly from being
tardy or skipping a class, to getting caught without a lunch hour

pass.
The bell sounded, like every
other day; it was 2:30. Most students rushed to their lockers,
gathered their things and scurried
to an awaiting bus or to the streets
for the journey homeward in hope
of arriving in time to view the last
few minutes of General Hospital.
As they raced by, some teens
reluctantly meandered slowly
down the corridors, wishing to be
a part of the swarm of students
ending their school day. These

students had just received written
invitations to spend the next two
hours in the dreaded detention.
Gathering their things, detained students headed for the
cafeteria. Upon entering, the 2:40
bell rang, signaling for all to be
silently seated. A rumbling was
present throughout the room, but
then was shuttered as detention
aids, Mrs. Dorothy Stebbins and
Mrs. Sharon Jiminez, entered,
leaving an echo of silence within
the closed doors.
Once seated, students responded for attendance. A presentation
stated how each should abide by
the rules, and had rules been followed, each would not have been
in this predicament. This was followed by one or two silent hours,
depending on the harshness of the
offense committed.
Detention rules consisted of the
same rules as those of a quiet
study hall. Students were given
the option to study, read or rest.
Talking was absolutely forbidden
as one was seated a few chairs
from the next classmate.
Some students used these noiseless hours as a study period . "The

times that I've had detention, I've
finished all the homework that I
probably wouldn't have done at
home," admitted junior Jeff Reget.
To other students this ordeal
was spent catching up on a few
"Z's" or taking endless glances at
the clock slowly ticking away the
seconds. "When I had detention, I
would usually find my seat, then
catch a few winks," added junior
Tyson Wilda.
Did detention really teach students a lesson about following
school rules? Some students felt it
did . "When I was asked for my
lunch pass and didn't have it, I
had to serve detention for it. It
was two of the longest hours I can
remember, but I never forgot my
pass again," recalled senior Rachel Rustia .
To other students, tho,,e afterschool hours did not seem to be
that bad. "I only had d Lention a
couple of times, and I hope I don't
have it again. It seems, though,
that every time I had it, the same
faces were in there, so to those
students it probably isn't that bad
a punishment," commented senior
Debbie Holland.
Detention was a place of serving time and paying for ones'
wrong-doings, but some students
felt that detention was not a deterrent in the breaking of school
rules. "I don't think detention is a
threat to students that break the
rules; all they have to do is study
or sleep for the duration of the
detention," remarked junior Dave
Blake.
"Serving detention was a restraint to some who broke the
rules, yet others didn' t seem to
care whether they had to serve or
not. However, the threat of being
placed in !.S.S. if a detention was
missed has tightened the reigns on
those who had previously skipped
out," stated Assistant Principal
Mr. James Marescalco.

Soph 'blow 'em away' marches ahead
Spirit and spunk sparked the
newest sophomore addition's ambition. Smearing the junior name,
sophomores came up with
$122.52 in donations compared to
the juniors' peak of $64.34 for the
Key Club's annual barrel drive to
rai e money for the starving people of Ethiopia.
Furthermore, sophs in Student
Congress rode neck and neck with
junior Congress members to recruit the most donors for the
blood drive. The final count was
juniors, 358; sophomores, 319.
In September, the sophs had
approached homecoming with
zilch in their accou nt. Sophomore
advi ers and girls softba ll
coaches, Mrs. Candice Stein and
Mrs. Connie Llanas, came to their
rescue. Temporarily removing
$75 from the girls softball team's

account, the coaches exacted a
promise of repayment from the
sophomore class.
With the theme "Blow 'em
Away," the tenth graders spent
three hours every night in sophomore Helen Stankus' garage constructing a massive head of the
famed Trojan blowing the defeated Pulaski Rams over the goal
post. "When we first started
building our noat, the place was
kind of dead. After a week of
building, new faces began to
show. All the hours we spent
working away paid off with not
only a second place, but also with
new friends," renected sophomore class President Heather
Sargent.
The main money-making event
of the year was the sock-hop following the Tremper-Bradford

basketball game. After rolling in
both Tremper and Bradford
bucks, the sophomore cla s account totaled $470.
Still hoping to raise some
bread, the Class of '87 tried their
hand at selling frozen pizzas,
baked goods and calendars . The
profits tallied in at a total of $308.
"Even though we didn't make as
much money as last year's sophomores, we tried our best. Consid-

ering we started out in the hole, I
think we did pretty well," commented sophomore class Vice
President Cathy Rizzo.
Wrapping up the year, the
sophs awoke bright and early on
May 11 to trudge to school to tid)

last yearly project, the underclassmen were more than ready to take

Gossip uncovers fictitious scandals
Faster than a speeding student,
able to jump class to class in a
single hour, more powerful than a
seventh-hour Phy. Ed. class - it's
gossip!
Gossip, like a plague, grew into
epidemic proportions. The most
popular rumor wafted through the
air, "Did you hear about the fight
between a teacher and student
last Friday at the assembly?" Not
only did the news travel throughout the school, but also off hours.
"Arriving home at 2:50 on my
average day, the phone would already be ringing. I'd answer to
hear my best friend's voice spouting the day's latest!" remarked junior Anne Hostetter.
Telling secrets to their best
friends "only," students revealed
a confidential version of "guess
who I danced with Friday night,
and .... " Never expecting anyone to breathe a word, the devastated student heard a totally revised story several days later. "I
remember when I told an acquaintance that I rode a wave in
with a jellyfish beside me while I
was in Florida over Christmas vacation; two weeks later a friend
questioned mmy shark attack!"
exclaimed senior Kari Gotelaere.
Locations to exchange these
ensationalized tidbits of news
aried greatly according to per-

sonal preferences. The library, the
Commons, Friday night dances
and the two favorite standbys the locker rooms and the bathrooms lead the gathering spots for
gossip. Typically, a couple of
friends had run into the bathroom, checked under each stall
for feet, then disclosed the day's
"secrets." "It's amazing what you
can hear while standing in front of
the mirror in the bathroom some stories are just too absurd to
be true!" stated junior Carol Kalvonjian.
The most warped versions of

traveling tales were often a result
of disciplinary matters. Students,
having no true notion of the matter, created a juicy scandal to satisfy even the most demanding of
listeners. Obviously, the administration gave out no details on
these matters. "Did you hear
about the guy who got caught
cheating?" or "I heard two girls
had to be taken from the dance in
a rescue squad!" started a story
which became more outrageous as
time wore on. "I remember hearing about a guy who was picked
up by the cops, supposedly for

drugs, after school one day - I
later found out his father was a
policeman and didn't have the
family car so he picked up his son
in the squad car!" laughed senior
Debbie Holland.
The possibility of stopping gossip is impossible. Only the elimination of the telephone, school activities and even human curiosity
will cool down the heat of these
stories. Wherever two or more
people gather, eyes will widen,
laughter will ring out and ears will
open as another scandal spreads.

Tossing orer a bit of gossip, junior Jackie Westplate discloses the latest version of "guess who he danced with Friday night."

Employment: a scholar's dilemma
"Wake up! It's almost 7
o'clock!" roared the angry parent.
The wage earner unhappily awakened with red eyes and a restless
yawn. The Tremperite was frustrated and, to say the least, tired.
Because closing "Mac's" posed as
an almost habitual routine, the
newly-roused employee wondered
and solemly groaned, "Is work
really worth all this?"
Together, work and school created a tough compination for
some job-laden students. Conflicting work schedules and home-

work hang-ups molded serious
havoc. "Since school began, my
grades have been going down hill.
Rather than doing my homework,
I end up working or falling asleep
on top of my books," claimed junior Eric Minkowski.
When homework and employment fell into a one-on-one competition, employment grabbed
first prize. It was unlikely for one
to be booted out of school merely
for an incomplete assignment,
while the first "no-show" could
have meant being fired. In con-

trast, junior Jeff Haines stated,
"Working is not worth throwing
away 12 years of schoolwork.
Falling grades are a pretty good
threat. Do the best you can, that is
all you can expect."
Partaking in part-time employment oftentimes pushed extracurricular activities into faraway
corners. Social lives were shorted
as boyfriends and girlfriends
griped of predetermined weekend
work worries. "Everytime I would
want to go out with Candy, she
had to work. Her managers saw

her more than I did!" complained
senior Mike Lindsay.
Part-time. employment also
curtailed a night out with the
boys. "Plans for nights on the
town were spoiled whenever I had
to go into the store. Then friends
got ticked off at me and left me
out of plans for next weekend,"
moaned junior Rick Frederick.
Being a jobber also offered an
opportunity to familiarize new
faces and reaquaint old ones. "Believe me, when you work next to
someone frying burgers, you really know them. I think I'm pretty
good friends with most of the people at Ponderosa," remarked junior Rod White. For some, the
thought of parting with friends at
work prompted employees to
think twice before resigning.
In order to balance the employee setbacks, a healthy cash flow
and sizable college fund chalked
up positive points. "I'm glad I
tarted saving for college. With a
steady money supply, I don't feel
guilty when I splurge," reasoned
junior Michelle Umshied.
Weighing the pros and cons,
however, must be done by the individual alone. Demands from
both ends pressured the pupil and
forced him to either endure his
conflicting schedules or manage
academic problems on a short
cash supply.

TV nullifies study
Television addicts tuned out
their homework, while tuning in
sets to Cheers, Dynasty and Hill
Street Blues. Reigning among the
popular reading material, the TV
Guide ruled over the dreaded
American Literature novel, The
Scarlet Letter. Teenagers, referred to as "television junkies,"
found it difficult to turn off fall
premieres, to attack their homework, and usually left it for the
following morning. Morning
erased sleepy-eyed intentions of
opening a book at all.
To students, television became
a necessity! "I feel that if I do my
homework while watching TV, it
doesn't seem to take as Jong, and
it doesn't seem as though I have
as much. I also do a lot of it, like
studying for tests, without the
tube," stated senior Mike Misamore.
Although students finished the
required work, they realized what
a distraction television was. Some
students admitted that without

the TV on, they did a better job
on their studies and retained more
of it. "When I do my homework
with the TV on, I usually do a
rush job to get it done even if I
don't undertstand it, so that I can
relax to a night of Cheers and Hill
Street Blues," admitted junior
Chris Turco.
As compared to five years ago,
teens noted obvious changes.
Clothes are skimpier, sports and
police shows are more violent,
words are more liberal, love
scenes are more explicit and there
are fewer shows portraying two
parent families.
Discriminate viewing, though,
could enable the student to get the
most out of the many hours spent
in front of the tube. In addition to
news shows that kept students up
to date on current events, channels 10 or 11 were probably tuned
in for a required assignment.
Movies such as The Day After
and Testament, both about the
terrible devastation caused by a
nuclear war, were supplemental
viewing for American History
classes. The presidential debates
were beneficial viewing for many
teens.
Teens felt that TV takes away
from their studies, yet they could
also learn from the viewing of
television. "I try not to do my
homework in front of the TV, but
watching television has helped me
with some of my homework, such
as giving me ideas for stories I
have written," commented junior
Dawn Keeling.
The choice is for the students.
Do teens continue to attempt
homework with the tube on and
watch grades slide, or concentrate
strickly on homework without the
distraction?

Leadership
shouts out
As a two year member of
Student Congress and a new
member of Spirit Board, junior
Tami Ironside developed leadership qualities and promoted
school spirit.
Representing her class in
Congress, Ironside enjoyed
teaming up to benefit students
and the school. Before Christmas break, Congress campaigned for Students Against
Drunk Driving (SADD) by
slapping flyers on cars. "Helping at least one person to turn
down alcohol is a job worthwhile to me," commented Ironside.
As co-chairperson of Blood
Drive, Ironside recognized the
hard work involved in saving
lives. "Blood Drive is the most
inspiring event of the year for

marked Ironside.
On the lighter side, Spirit
Board offered Ironside the opportunity to shout out her enthusiasm. Gripping the "T"
from T-R-E-M-P-E-R and
blaring out "Tremper" demonstrated Ironside's full support
of the Trojans. "At a football
game, a beach ball suddenly
bounced out from the stands; it
was great to see the fans join in
with Spirit Board," recalled
Ironside.
Ironside learned from both
Congress and Spirit Board the
importance of doing things for
others. "I realized how much
fun people can have by working together with others," concluded Ironside.

July 19 in Whitewater.
As the summer months transformed themselves into the school
season packed with additional
priorities, some difficulty between
the Trojanettes transpired.
"When you are with the same
people almost everyday after
school doing the same thing, you
can get sick of going to practice.
But porn pals helped the squad to
become closer to one another,"
explained junior Julie Wolf. To
rouse fallen moral, each of the

Porn pals lived up to expectations at the December 8 Badgerette Clinic where the Trojanettes
competed with more than 12
squads. Shooting off their routine
"Girls with Guns," they targeted
a second place in originality and
earned a two foot take-home trophy.
Adding a twist to the traditional Homecoming festivities, the
Trojanettes and cheerleaders, together for the first time, combined spirit and performed a dual
dance to "On the Dark Side." "It
was a really fun and worthwhile
experience working as a team because we never did anything like
that before, and I also got to know
how the other squad organized,"
commented senior Trojanette
Lorna Frechette.
Acting as ambassadors of
friendship and service, the football cheerleaders whipped up specially made cookies and sent personalized letters and assorted can-

dy to the players. Along with
these tokens of support, "Go-get
'em" locker posters were scotched
up to wish football members good
luck.
At the Homecoming pep rally
on October 19, Varsity Captain
Noelle Hintzman announced Big
Brute, Noel Clausen, amid cheers
and applause. Clausen donned the
official T-shirt and waved the Big
Brute baseball bat to rouse up the
fans.
As the final buzzer signaled the
end of another football season,
the cheerleaders' annual football
banquet dropped anchor at Captain's Steak Joynt on November

captain
Springing across the floor in
a sixth grade performance
highlighted the first year of
Donna Capponi's pompon career.
"Later at Lance Jr. High,
my favorite activity was performing at pep assemblies,"
stated Capponi.
Capponi's interest expanded
as she tried out for Trojanettes.
In her senior year she chachaed her way to captain.
Dance choreography, runons, run-offs and practices
stacked up as major duties.
Through many practice hours,
a captain also burns time and
patience; yet Capponi accented
benefits. "Because I like meeting people, Trojanettes was an
ideal experience. Later, we become one big family," explained Capponi.

Even if everything seems to
be going right, a technical mishap spells disaster. "We were
all set with this difficult pose.
The tape played; it was the
wrong song! I had to run up to
the stands and find the right
song," recalled Capponi.
Because performing is so important to Capponi, she prepared for a big step in pomming. "I plan on trying out for
a Badgerette staff member.
I've always dreamed about it,"
concluded Capponi.

Former traditions renew vigor
Both Sub Deb and Quad
School renewed their memberships' vigor with former traditions. Years had elapsed since either tradition had been practiced .
While the candlelight induction
dinner struck a dramatic contrast
to donkey basketball, these activities were a refreshing change in
'85.
On April 8, 1970, the Sub Deb
Service Club became an official
organization at Tremper. The
purpose was to serve the school,
set an example for the students,
cooperate with school matters,
and be in charge of the annual
winter formal. This club was
formed by girls and composed of
girls with the following qualities:
S-sincerity; U-uniqueness and understanding; B-bubbly and cheerful; D-determination and desire;
E-earnest and B-beautiful.
While twelve 1985 members
donned polka dot, striped and
plaid apparel to clown around for
the October 19 Homecoming parade, the rest released the 300 red ,
white and blue helium ballons.
After capturing a third place for
their "Roast the Rams" banner
and boosting another successful
homecoming, the girls launched
their "most exciting year ever,"
according to Vice President
Vanessa Ebner.
Anxious for a _chance to get to
know each other better, the club
marked December 2 as their initiation ceremony which took place
at the progressive dinner.
Starting out at sophomore

Brenda Payne's house, the girls
delighted themselves in the variety of hors d'ouvres. From there
they cruised to sophomore Sue
Becker's house for salad and then
to senior Sue Bisciglia's for the
main entree of mostaccioli . In the
light and informal atmosphere,
they watched a video of the homecoming parade and of half-time
and then sat down for a game of
" Pass the Fork ." Junior Michelle
Cairo had the unfortunate honors
of downing the "delicious" concoction of jello, tuna cassarole,
chicken skin and au gratin potatoes.
The club concluded the dinner
with the dessert and the induction
at junior Tami Ironside's house.
As the lights were dimmed and
the candles lit one by one, twenty
new members took the Sub Deb
oath . "After not having a formal
induction for the last three years,
it was nice to know that at last it
was finally official," commented
Secretary Bisciglia.
After spending nine hours trimming the Eagles club in silver and
red, the girls dashed home in time
to get decked-out for an evening
of "Winter Reflections. " Although the formal started at 8
p.m., in spite of Sub Deb preparations, the band sauntered in at 9

Choirs crescendo
at group contest
Decorating the auditorium with
the sounds of the season, Concert
Choir and Treble Clef Singers debuted on December 20.
Accompanied by sophomore
pianist Julie Peltier, the Treble
Clef Singers harmonized to "Be.fore the Paling of the Stars" after
opening with "Agnus Dei." As
their portion of the program progressed, the 41 female voices concluded their performance with
"Do You Hear What I Hear?"
Concert Choir added to the
evening with passive numbers
"Break Forth, 0 Beauteous
Heavenly Light" and "Comfort,
Comfort Ye My People." Their
final selection, entitled "Come to
the Manger" was directed by
choir president Bob Bistrick.
The Treble Clef Singers and
Concert Choir combined vocal
strengths with the Choraliers and
A Capella Choir for popular carols. "O Come All Ye Faithful,"
"Joy to the World" and "Silent
Night" echoed throughout the
sparsely populated auditorium.
The carols revived the spirit of
Christmas in the hearts of the audience as they ventured out into
the brisk winter air near I 0 p.m.
Finally, Treble Clef and Concert Choir tucked away Christmas
tunes, and they pulled out more
challenging pieces. The Wisconsin Schools Music Association
Group Contest date of April 23
rapidly approached. Difficult passages were repeatedly rehea.rsed
and drilled from January through
April.
Practice made perfect as Concert Choir earned a Class B I
ranking and the Treble Clef Singers tallied the same in Class A.
"We worked extremely hard
during these preparation weeks. It
was great that, as a sophomore, I
could experience this kind of sat·
isfaction," commented alto Treble Clef Singer Kristine Rhey.

public schools. Guest conductor,
Dr. John Windh, Choral Director
at Carthage College, directed the
choirs and symphonic orchestra to
"For the Beauty of the Earth"
and "With a Voice of Praise."
May 16 blossomed in spring
with the Twenty-First Annual
Spring Choir Concert. Concert
Choir slow tunes, "Light Everlasting" and "Blow the Candles
Out," led to upbeat songs of
"What a Day" and "Ev're Time I
Feel The Spriit." Solos featured
sophomores Mike Davis, Dan Kaley and Mark Lovell.
The Treble Clef Singers took
the stage to sing the well-known
"Ave Marie." Jackie Paura on piano and Sue Bisciglia on flute accompanied Treble Clefs easy-listening number, "Movin' On."
"It's Raining Men" featuring
dancers Kirstin Powell, Julie Peltier, Amy Martens, Debbie Minshall and Lea Dellise under the
direction of student choreographer and dancer sophomore
Sue Aceto ended the Treble Clef
Singers' portion of the concert.
Plunging into a dramatic finale,
the Treble Clef Singers and Concert Choir joined the Choraliers
and A Cappella Choir in reflection toward Ethiopia. Arranged
exclusively for the choirs by Mr.
William Balcom, "We are the
World" signaled the unity of musicians and concern for others.
"Being in Concert Choir is like
being in a regular class. We learn
music just like you learn math or
English. Our lessons, for example
aggressiveness in music, we can
apply to our lives, too. The only
difference is we don't have tests.

Triple talent
directs song
Harmonizing his triple talent with Choraliers, A Capella
and Concert Choir, senior Bob
Bistrick spent most of his senior year in song.
"Because I was voted to be
president of the choir, I had a
lot of responsibilities. Mr.
Chalgren and the students depended on me to always be
there for warm-ups. That
means I couldn't be absent,"
remarked Bistrick.
Showing his ability to be a
leader at the Christmas Concert on December 20, Bistrick
conducted the choir to the song
"Come to the Manger."
On February 16, Bistrick vocalized in the annual Choral
Festival. "Choral Festival is a

May 16, Bistrick "gave his all"

"Spring Concert is the most

choirs will be together. It

Musicians feast on royal excellence
"This is a time for joy and celebration! Let the feast begin!" As
the Lorde High Chamberlaine
started to speak, the audience
hushed in anticipation of the Olde
Englishe adventure at the Elks
Club on December 7,8,9 and 10.
Then, the brass ensemble burst
into simultaneous fanfare, signalling another Christmasse Feaste as
the Madrigal Singers slowly encircled the hall singing "A Great
and Mighty Wonder."
The Feaste embellished the already festive holiday cheer that
was seen throughout the school.
The Madrigal Singers, however,
began the season back in September with a deliberate and precise
rehearsal schedule. Every Tuesday and Thursday evening from
6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. rigorous
practice time was spent drilling
madrigal selections such as "Fair
Phyllis," "La, la, la, Je Ne L'Ose

Dire" and "Since First I Saw
Your Face," each singer working
towards the common goal of perfection. "Madrigal Singers is a
really worthwhile experience.
Sure, it's hard work, but when we
start to think and act together, we
create a product that we can be
proud to display to the public,"
expressed singer Jorge Macias.
A new addition to the musical
portion of the program presented
itself in the form of the Lorde's
Ladyes, who roamed the crowded
hall, singing songs of praise and
rejoice such as "Lo, How A Rose
Ere Blooming." These nine girls
rehearsed Wednesday afternoons
from 2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. starting
in late September.
Instrumentalists, including
strings, brass, krummhorn musicians and recorders, added a definite medieval air to the evening.
In early October, interested or-

chestra members auditioned for
the string ensemble. The final
group was comprised of seven
members: two cellos, three violinists and two violas. Rehearsals
were held weekly under the direction of Mr. Stanley Nosal. Moving through the Elks halls with
elegant finesse, the strings appeared as the royal musicans who
played throughout the night.
Performing alternately with the
orchestra were thirteen recorder
players. Recorder player Heidi
Impola commented, "Practicing
twice a week from 6:30 p.m. to
8:30 p.m. took dedication and
meant squeezing in homework between rehearsals, but, as a first
year member, I made new friends.
It was a really fun experience to
add to my sophomore year."
The brass section of seven completed the music with renditions
of English fanfares and back-

James Firchow, they held practices daily during second hour
Wind Ensemble from October until Feaste nights.
For most of the 250 individuals
involved in the Feaste, the experience ended on the night of December 10. The Madrigal Singers,
however, continued to make appearances around the city during
the holiday season. Performing at
a Kiwanis Club luncheon on December 20, strolling later in the
day through the entire Elks Club,
and for a grand finale, singing
their program in the annual
Christmas Concert closed the
Madrigals' season. "We set our
goals high and made sure we
achieved them. The achievement
is what made it all worthwhile,"
said singer Tim Prince.

Music notes
success
"I've always enjoyed singing.
Somehow, though, I never
thought about being in a school
choir or anything. Band was always a priority in my life. I just
enjoy using my voice creatively
and I guess that was why the
Madrigal Singers captured my
attention," explained senior
Kurt Hackemer.
"But I'm a band member,
not a choir member," emphasized Hackemer. Ever since
fifth grade, Hackemer has matured as a trombonist in bands
at Lance Junior High School
and in Concert, Symphonic
and Wind Ensemble bands.
Even though never involved in
a school choral production,
Hackemer is also a two-year
member of the Madrigal Singers.

Hackemer toasts tidings.

Success in music is not the
only thing that Hackemer is
proud of. He has continually
achieved academic excellence
as reflected by his winning
three school letters in debate.
His goals are high and his
ideals are set. "I know I will
keep up with my music as an
extra activity aside from academics. My ultimate goal is
law school and the advantages
it has to offer me," concluded
Hackemer.

Comedy crowns
medieval meal
"Die, Die, . .. Die." These final
words echoed through the Elks
Club banquet hall as the hero
Pyramus slumped to the ground
at the close of "A Midsummer
Night's Dream," pre ented by the
actors and actresses of the annual
Christmasse Feaste. For the first
time in the Feaste's nine years,
these players were added to the
repertoire of talent displayed on
December 7, 8, 9 and 10.
With a comic version of this
Shakespearean production, selected drama members treated
the listeners with a flavor of Renaissance and Romanticism. Portraying the plight of Pyramus and
Thisbe, ten players provoked
chuckles and smiles throughout
the entire performance.
Aside from this talented group,
fencing masters lunged into a rehearsal schedule in early November. Ten thrusting and dodging
fencers parried in the school cafeteria every Thursday from 3 p.m.
to 4:30 p.m., challenging each
other with difficult jumps and
lunges.
Coordinated jugglers, all five
under the guidance of Mr. Kurt
Chalgren, charmed the spectators
while maintaining complete concentration on the balls they juggled. "Being a juggler was more
than just fun sometimes. It was
something we had to take the time
to master. We couldn't just go out
there and hope that things went
okay, we had to know and be
proud of the things we'd accomplished," explained juggler Keir
Powell.
Inevitably, each of the jesters

added bits of humor to the Feaste,
amusing the audience with antics
and teasing each other endlessly
with mime. After auditioning several months before for adviser
Mr. Terry Lawler, five jesters
practiced weekly in order to perfect improvisations, joking mannerisms and special techniques involving the shining of a bald head
or simply the pestering of an innocent guest. Begging for minute table scraps consisted of head
stands, somersaults and other
clumsy antics. Jesters peaked the
performance with an outrageous
mime of "The Twelve Days of
Christmas."
Acrobats punctuated every
evening as each of the 11 tumblers flipped down the narrow
aisle, springing to greater altitudes with every leap. "After
opening night, the main goal was
to make our moves high enough to
touch that central flag hanging
from the ceiling. With that accomplished, we were really proud
of our performances," noted tumbler Dawn Boyd.
Two silent beefeaters stood
guard at the banquet hall doors,
adding a touch of poise to the already vibrant surroundings.
As the evening closed with "Silent Night," students reflected
upon the quality of previous
Feastes blended with the new additions this year. "The things added to the Feaste this year only
enhanced it more. Bagpipers, actors, the Lorde's Ladyes. All of
these new ideas came together in
order to make it the best Feaste
yet," concluded fencer Julie Nice.

As Pyramus, Riley Wheeler vows his love
to senior Dianne Thompson , alias Thisbe.
While crossing with j unior Ken Mccarron, sophomore Scott Pecha dodges a

with royalty
As had been tradition for the
past eight years, the pages and
wenches of the Madrigal
Feaste once more played an
important role in its success.
Although they seldom received
the recognition given to the
other performers, each devoted
himself to attaining excellence
in the service of the food.
"As my first year in the
Feaste, I was really honored to
be chosen as head wench. My
partner Scott Theilbar had
three years of experience, so he
was an excellent choice for

"Cats." Dancing and prancing
across the junkyard-set stage, the
"Cats" cast dazzled the choir with
its talents and special effects. To
lessen the $45 expense, the Choir
Boosters split the cost with students for tickets and travel. "Going to watch 'Cats' was probably
one of the best educational musical experiences I'll ever have," declared alto Donna Bloom.
As the most advanced group in
instrumental music, the Wind Ensemble, directed by Mr. James
Firchow, highlighted Tremper's
portion of Band-o-rama and performed the articulate movements
of classical selections in two concerts.
Starting out on the right note,
Wind Ensemble opened their season with a fall concert on November 15. Performing compositions
like "Stargazing" and "Armeniel)
Dances" brought Wind Ensemble
expected crowd applause and
praise for their efforts.
· Accelerating toward a citywide performance, Wind Ensemble prepared for the annual Bando-rama on February 2 and 3 at the
Bradford Fieldhouse. The band
peaked the evening with "January-February March" after having heralded the Olympic fanfare
earlier in the program. In a mass
high school selection, Wind En-

semble joined talents with the
four other bands of Bradford and
Tremper to perform "Lamp of Liberty."
" Band-o-rama is always fantastic for all of the bands involved.
But this year's opening, program
selections and overall effect created by the musicians was overwhelming," commented French
hornist Gina Carravetta.
As the year came to a close, the
May 14 Spring Concert drew
near. Trombone soloist Greg VanPatten was spotlighted in
"Thoughts of Love," and the concert concluded with a Spanish
dance piece and a performance by
the Blue Jazz Ensemble. On May
23 at the Symphonic Band Concert, awards were presented to deserving seniors. In recognition of
individual musicianship, the
year's efforts added up to the presentation of the George Manupella Award to trombonist Kurt
Hackemer. The John Philip Sousa Award was given to Greg VanPatten for outstanding achievement and contribution to the band
program. "I don't plan on music
as a lifetime ambition, but the experiences I have gained as a member of Wind Ensemble are invaluable to me," said Kiwanis Award
winner Dave Gosch.

"Whether it's through band,

senior Greg VanPatten.
Studying trombone for the
past eight years, VanPatten
glided from the Lincoln Junior
High Symphonic Band to the
Tremper Concert Band and on
to Wind Ensemble. "High
school band helped me when it
came time to grow up. It gave
me the disciplined and structured atmosphere that I needed," said VanPatten.

major.
"I want to be a performer. I

Bopping through the Big Band
era into the Flashdance craze, the
Choraliers and Red and Blue Jazz
bands bounced colorful instrumental and vocal rhythms into
events ranging from Super Show
'85 to the City Wide Jazz Festival.
Under the direction of returning director Mr. Kurt Chalgren,
18 Choraliers studied lighter music for interested students who

Louis Covelli confirmed that "it's
nothing someone can go home

"When we start preparing for a

After a switch from the

to the trumpet in fifth grade. "I

drums, and there would be too
much competition between
us," explained Ruffolo.
In the summer after ninth
grade, Ruffolo joined the Band
of the Black Watch. "When
first joining Black Watch, it
just gave me something to do
over the summer. But meeting
people and getting the satisfaction out of a show I've worked
so hard for really made it a
worthwhile and a great experience," commented Ruffolo.
Ruffolo displayed his ambition in trumpeting as he volunteered to play for the musical
"Oklahoma." "This musical

was another good experience
for me. Being one of the few
sophomores in it made me feel

that could strengthen my abilities," remarked Ruffolo.
As a goal for the year, Ruffolo jammed to the State Solo
Contest at the UW-Whitewater on May 4. He received a
one with a star playing "Trumpet Concerto" by Haydan.
"I really enjoy being in Concert Band. It takes up a lot of
my time, but it's worth it all,"
concluded Ruffolo.

McLeod arrangements premieres
While the 90 member symphony orchestra bowed their way
from the Mid-Winter Symphony
Orchestra Concert in January to
the final presentation at graduation , the year climaxed with
world premiers of James " Red "
McLeod arrangements.
Polishing technique every day
of the school week, the symphony
orchestra rehearsed for the fall
audition for chair positions . "It
took a lot of concentration and
hours of work, but seeing my
name on the list as first chair
made all the practicing worth it,"
recalled senior Traci Dennis.
The first concert, on January
25, featured a world premier performance of a Harold Arlen Medley written by the famed composer James "Red" McLeod. The

Arlen Medley spotlighted such familia r songs as "Over the Rainbow," "I Love a Parade" and
" Stormy Weather. " " Executing
this medley was a special experience for us since we had the premiere performa nce," stated junior
Dawn Fisher.
The symphony orchestra accompanied choirs for the District
Choir Festival on February 16 at
Tremper High School. Two solo
numbers showcased by the orchestra prior to the concert.
Guest conductor, Dr. John
Windh, choral director at Carthage College, directed the choirs
and symphony orchestra to "For
the Beauty of the Earth" by John
Rutter and "With a Voice of
Praise" by G.F. Handel.
Once again, on March 16, the

symphony orchestra wowed the
a udience with their rendition of a
Harold Arlen Medley at the Orchestra Festival, according to Director Stanley Nosal.
Regarding the Festival, Senior
Sharon Knautz commented ,
" There were many levels of ability ; the talent ranged from the elementary school beginners to the
experienced senior high school orchestras. Even though the festival
was not a competition, each
school attempted to achieve the
peak of perfection."
McLeod restaged the success of
the Harold Arlen Medley by arranging another piece especially
for the Symphony Orchestra. The
piece was composed of the Verdi
Waltzes from "La Traviata ." It
was the second song played by the

orchestra for the Spring Concert.
Pianist and violinist Kristy Parham merited the outstanding senior musician award , given annually at the Spring Concert. The National School Orchestra A ward,
presented by the Western Kenosha Kiwanis Club, recognized
Parham for her outstanding participation in Golden Strings and
Chamber and Symphony Orchestras, where she played the piano
and violin .
Mr. Nosal proudly concluded,
"We' ve had many successful musicians graduate from Tremper,
and I am quite positive that with
the talent we have this year, there
will be many success stories."

During yet another arousing performance, Symphony Orchestra executes a
"Harold Arlen Medley."
Violinist Megan Bernard concentrates on
making her part of the Overture to "Russian and Ludmilla" by Michael Ivanovich
Glinka an overwhelming success.

At the spring concert, Mr. Stanely Nosal directs the Symphony Orchestra in
performing Verdi Waltzes which was orchestrated by James "Red" McLeod.

where he received a rating of
"Superior." Kleist's practice
for these contests came from
performing 85 times per year.
"Golden Strings is my favorite group to perform with, although I enjoy them all because they are all very different. Our performances for
Golden Strings are much more
relaxed, and we also have the
chance to travel," Kleist revealed.
Although Kleist enjoyed
many exciting performances,
his favorite was the trip to Europe with the Strings. "Seeing
all the different countries was a
new experience for me. The
European audiences were
much more responsive, also,"

commented Kleist.
Kleist attributed much of
the Orchestra's success to the
director Mr. Stanley Nosal.
Kleist offered, "The orchestras, expecially Golden Strings,
would not be as good if it weren't for the music contacts, the
world-wide directing experience and the skill of Mr. Nosal. We're very lucky to have
him."
Often, music takes up spare
time which would normally be
devoted to social activities.
Kleist does not feel as though
he has missed out on anything,
however. He laughed, "At
least we don't spend Friday
nights sitting at home. We
have a really good time performing together and the experience is unbeatable."

Strings flavor European culture
Whether strolling from table to
table or swinging around the
country, the Golden Strings, under the direction of Mr. Stanley
Nosal, captivated audiences of all
walks . The Strings consisted of 15
violins, six violas, six cellos, three
double basses and a duo piano
team doubling on the violin, all of
which discovered that the countless hours of both personal and
group preparation paid off in the
end . " The best part about performing is seeing the pleasure we
bring to so many people," commented senior violinist Mel
White.
Attending a six day camp from
June 7 to June 12 at the Eastern
Illinois University, the group began their season familiarizing and
then memorizing the music for
the upcoming year. Mr. James
" Red" McLeod, who is the entertainment director of the Minnesota Vikings team, wrote the entire
show.
Camp was not all work, no play.
In one week, the inevitable family
feeling that so often takes hold of
many group organizations embraced the Golden Strings. Also,

Renoir, Monet, Manet, van Gogh ,
and others," summarized junior
Shamice Rogers .
To buy ingredients for the Les
Choux (cream puffs). Eclaires,
and the Mousse a u Chocolat, the
club spent the rem a ining money
in an "appetizing" way . The annual Mardi Gras party featured
these desserts on February 28. "I
couldn't believe the turnout. Almost 90 percent of each club was
there. I really had fun trying all
the different foods that the clubs
prepared, and our chocolate
mousse was 'delicieux'," complimented junior Laura Nighbert.
The Spanish club, too, highlighted its agenda with their second place award for their banner,
"Mata Los Rams, Viva Los Trojans" during the Homecoming
festivities in November.
Money from bake sales and a
Spanish taffy sale prepared members for a "fiesta" with all the
other language clubs on October
24. The 152 "dolores" earned by
the members from the dance

Mardi Gras crowd. "Mardi Gras

all kinds of food from four different cultures and talk with my

senior three-year member Diane

Mardi Gras, the festival which
signifies the last days of revelry
before Lent celebrated by New
Orleans, and the Foreign Language Club dance were two major
happenings into which the French
and Spanish Clubs invested their
time and money to add to their list
of meetings and fund raisers .
French Club gathered 62 students in September for their bimonthly meetings. The agenda
first slated building a banner for
Homecoming. As the rival team
was the Pulaski Rams, the club
decided to "Guillotine the
Rams!"
The Foreign Language Club
dance on October 24 lured 75 percent of all members. Colorful costumes abounded as male "cheerleaders," "jellybeans " and "crayons" be-bopped through the night
to earn money for the clubs. Even
though French Club's share of the
profits amounted to $150, more
money was needed to finance the
group's "extraordinaire" field
trips .
Bake sales and an M&M candy
sale totalled $500 which bussed
the members to the Chicago Art
Institute on December 11 to view
the exhibit of French impressionists. "I was really impressed by
the large collection of French impressionists art at the Institute.

Studying Spanish as a freshman prompted Spanish Club
President Jill Bergerson to join
the club as a sophomore and
continue through her senior
year.
"Because [ had two years
experience in the club and
knew how it was run, I was enthusiastic about being president as a senior. My goal was
to get more people involved in
school activities," explained
Bergerson.
Since Spanish enrollment
was not a requirement, membership was open to anyone. "I
think that we had more of a

very much. This year we had
more fund raisers and people
had more of a positive attitude
so they attended more meetings."
"My largest presidential responsibility, and the most fun,
was when I had eight club

of Advent calendars from November 26 through the Christmas
season, participation in the annua l Foreign Language Club Dance
on October 24, and a German

the finances for the Hof Brau

Ea sing its way slowly into the
foreign language arena , the Interna tional Exchange Club made its
debut. Members willingly saw
that new exchange students were
welcomed and made to feel at
home through welcome and farewell parties .
As a special Mardi Gras contribution, seniors Philippe Michel
and Scott Thorburn gave slide
presentations about life in their
home countries of Belgium and
South Africa.
"I was really impressed with
both presentations . It was touching to see how much their native
land really means to them," observed junior Laura Nighbert.
Clubbers also sponsored a car
wash in May in order to raise
money for parties honoring these
exchange students . On May 18,
members treated each to a day at

Six Flags Great America in Gurnee, Illinois.
"After spending so much time
making each student feel comfortable in the United States,
each becomes very special and it's
really hard to finally say goodbye," remarked club Vice President Diana Alfano.
Maintaining its reputation as
the largest language club, Latin
Club and its 142 members stacked
up both fund-raising and fun-raising activities.
Beginning with the Foreign
Language Club Dance, continuing with an M&M sale from December 10 to 15 and selling black
licorice on the Ides of March during fourth and fifth hours, Latin
Club pulled in a total of $500.
Half of this money was put aside
for one $500 scholarship given to
a deserving Latin Club senior in
the area of service and achievement. Selected by adviser Ms.
Frances Werve, senior and Latin
Club President Michelle Paszek
received this honor. Funds were
also donated to Ethiopia, the
American Cancer Society and the
production of Oklahoma.

In addition to fundraising , Latin Club played an active part in
Homecoming festivities. Seizing
first place in the banner competition for the third year in a row,
Latin Club swept up victory with
"Doris Daisy" in the limelight.
The "Daisy Defenders," representing the Four World Powers
and protecting this flower , were
also organized by Ms. Werve.
Latin Club also entered a group
to represent them in the Physical
Fitness Challenge. Latin Club
Team I consisted of four people:
Dawn Heins, John Margetson,
Thad Jensen and Damien Marhefka . This team ranked first
place all around, setting two individual school records for sit-ups
and pull-ups. "As a member of
the Daisy Defenders, I, along with
Dan Kaley, Mike Erickson and
Corey Niles, took my commitment to Daisy very seriously.
Aside from that, though, just being a member of Latin Club is a
lot of fun! It's unique because
even if you don't speak the language, you can still be part of the
fun ," commented sophomore Tim
Prince.

"Spending two years in German class and two years in

As a member during her
sophomore year, Derwae

of the club each month as she
conducted meetings, organized
fundraisers and planned activities to promote club participation. Distributing German candy to members and representing German Club during Mardi Gras preparations were only
two of the duties Derwae performed. "At times, Mardi Gras
was an unbelieveable amount
of work, but after it was all put

Festivals, tourna ments a nd controversy over the latest news

academics for the spare time of
Forensics, Debate and New Voice
Radio members.
A change in teaching positions
prompted Mr. Stephan Kiszley to
take charge of the 20 members of
New Voice Radio . "Since I became instructor of the television
and radio classes, I decided to
take over New Voice and help
students expand their interests
outside of class," explained Mr.
Kiszley.
Putting on the hits for school
dances was the mainstay of
NVR's diet, although an entry
into the Homecoming banner
competition in October tuned in
NVR's spirit. " Because we use all
our own equipment and only have
one set of speakers, turntable and
mixers, we had to turn down our
only offer to play at a junior high
school dance since we already had
one scheduled for the same night
here at school," commented senior Steve Schuetz.
For a cost of $20 per hour, a
club could hire three "D.J .'s" to
run the equipment and rock the
night away. Money from the
dances financed equipment up-

keep in the form of new wires,
fuses and occasionally, new
speakers.
Upkeep of equipment was the
primary concern of Stage Crew
members. Putting in hours after
school at performances, plays,
concerts and in-school assemblies, members experienced working with the black lights, stage
fog , spotlights, sound board and
stage mikes used for the events.
"I'm glad that my skills and
knowledge can be used to better a
production or enhance events like
Homecoming, Prom, Oklahoma
and Senior Banquet," stated junior Laura Post.
Lack of time and distance from
competitions forced Forensics
members to venture only as far as
Milwaukee for their two festivals .
Twelve members spoke extemporaneously, interpreted poems, told
stories and play-acted in their
first meet, February 16, at Milwaukee Marshall.
"In honor of the Valentine holiday the judges gave out special
heart-shaped boxes of candy to
winners of a drawing, " explained
winner Angela Herman . This was
one of the 11 awards won at the
second and final tournament in
February 23 in Muskego.
Entrants in each of 13 categor-

ies rated a score of A, B, or C in
each composite score which determined each participant's overall placement among the 30
schools in the competition . The
team as a whole failed to place in
the top ten .
Open registration and no qualifying restrictions allowed the
team to join 68 other schools at
the State Coaches' Competition
in Sun Prairie on March 30.
" Because the meet ran all day
long, the judges started tabulating
the scores at 6 p.m. Unfortunately, we had to leave before the
scores were posted," concluded
sophomore Lisa Fermin, Consequently, the Forensics team ended
the season without knowledge of
state results.
Presenting the most logical arguement, a more persuasive
speech and superior evidence
compared to an opponent, debaters won rounds in eight tournaments on Saturdays from October
through December. The high
point of the season for the five
member Novice team was the
November 10 Tremper Invitational Tournament organized by
Coach Mary Snyder. "This tournament was outstanding because

Deadlines, stress, debuts
Just as Judy Garland faced
lions, tigers and bears in The Wizard of Oz, both the Tempest staff
and the Drama Company faced
deadlines, debuts and stress in
their task of producing entertainment and information for their respective audiences.
Starting off their season with
new director, Mr. Gerald Rogan,
the eleven cast members of "Ten
Little Indians" learned the basics
of acting and brought the director
back into the act of teaching. "I
feel very comfortable being back
in education. In Drama Company,
I have selected a number of classic stage productions that I think
the group should perform," remarked Rogan.
As it was the first play of the
year, Rogan chose a script with a
small cast. "A smaller cast is better when most of the members are
newcomers, because it allows
more time to teach each individual and for the director to see
where he or she needs to work on
character development," expressed Alyssa Simpson, Student
Di rector for the November 8-10
shows.
Three weeks in advance of the
original performance dates, January 18 and 19, Rogan chose a
script for the Children's Show.
Cast members then carefully assessed the time needed to block

scenes, memorize lines, and build
sets. Thus, the cast moved the actual performance dates to February 2 and 9. Practices everyday
for two hours after school prepared the 22 member cast of "The
Red Shoes" to amuse children
and adults alike at the Saturday
matinees. "Being in my first Children's Show was a twist from acting for students and adults. It
gave me a chance to use different
acting techniques such as voice
inflections and body gestures that
are not often used in serious acting," commented sophomore Holly Christofferson.
Plans were made for the endof-the-year' cast party at a final
meeting on February 22. The
company also scheduled a trip to
see Parkside's production of She
Stoops to Conquer on April 25.
"I particularly admire the attitude at Tremper. It is reflected in
the accomplishments of the students both in and out of school,"
surmised Rogan.
While the Drama Company
consisted of two seniors, two juniors and 20 sophomores, the
Tempest staff included 20 seniors
and two juniors. "This situation is
good because the incoming staff

skills than sophomores would be,"
explained Editor-in-Chief Tammy
Hannah.
Switching to the presses of the
Kenosha Labor Paper, the Tempest was able to improve the quality of both layout and copy styles.
A revised proofreading system
provided for last minute corrections before the paper went to
press. "Our deadlines are now one
week before the paper comes out
instead of two or three weeks.
This allows us to write more timely, up-to-date articles and include
only the most recent sports
scores," stated Sports Editor Jim
Strouf.
With a class size of 40, two
class hours were needed to allow
each staff adequate work space
and time. In order to supervise
each hour, Editors-in-Chief Ron
Ancevic and Tammy Hannah
took one class each. Ancevic was
in charge of supervising layout
procedures, while Hannah oversaw the newspaper exchange.
"We are sent copies of high
school and college newspapers
from Wisconsin and Illinois which
keep the staff current with newspaper trends," reported Hannah.
Since Tempest was a member
of the American Scholastic and
Associated Press Associations, it
was eligible to enter their contests. Along with separate awards

oh, my!
for individual staff entrants, the
paper as a whole earned a First
Place award from the American
Scholastic Press Association.
From Quill & Scroll, the international honor society for journalists, Tempest received second
place in the International Division.
Branching out in its advertising
department, the Tempest included more circulars and flyers from
community businesses. "The purpose of running ads is to encourage public relations with community advertisers by developing a
good name for the school and
vice-versa," replied Typing Editor
and advertising staff member,
Janis Christensen-Fink.
Besides selling ad space, the
Tempest staff sold candy bars,
doughnuts, Senior Wills and classified ads in their Valentine's Day
issue to cover the cost of the paper. "This is the first year that
Tempest has actually broken
even. We always had to pay back
the debt from previous years, but
this year we have extra money to
spend on color pages and halftones," cited Ancevic.
Both the Tempest staff and the
Drama Company concluded the
year with officers, editors and
ready-made plans for upcoming
fall issues and performances.

Her world's
a stage
"I really enjoyed my first
part in my sophomore year because it was the first play that I
ever did without a script to follow. The entire play was all adlibbing. I couldn't believe that
I actually pulled it off. I was so
nervous because I had a major
role as Rip Van Winkle's
daughter and later wife, that I
had to have some lines written
down for me so I could memorize them." explained senior
Alyssa Simpson.
After acting her first role in
a fifth grade musical production, Simpson decided to add
theater to her long list of extracurricular activities. Three
years of experience in McKinley Junior High School's Drama Company, prepared her to
audition for and land her first
role her sophomore year.
Because of her busy academic schedule, Simpson opted
to stay off the stage and become publicity chairperson
during her junior year. As she
was the only remaining senior

Simpson directs Drama Company.

Drama Company member to
be in the group for three years,
Simpson took advantage of the
opportunities to direct and to
play the lead roles that were
available to her. "I was lucky
enough to be chosen Student
Director for the first show and
I quickly gained the confidence
of the incoming sophomores.
The skills I gained from directing others I applied to myself
when I assumed the lead in our
second and final show."
"I was glad that I got to experience both directing and
leading a play before going to
college. I hope to ~udition for
some plays to compliment my
academic studies," concluded
Simpson.

Publications, grades merit honor
Renewing honor and merit,
spring blossomed with 56 inductees into National Honor Society
and with 35 into Quill and Scroll.
Meeting specific qualifications
proclaimed under the Quill and
Scroll constitution, 21 juniors and
14 seniors in the upper third of
their class that received recommendations by journalism advisers and approval by Executive
Secretary Richard Johns were
awarded membership. The international Quill and Scroll induction was held Wednesday, May I,
at the Women's Club banquet
hall.
President Todd Smolinski conferred initiation pins and membership cards. As each member
was recognized, his adviser cited
individual achievements from
throughout the year on Classic,

Tempest, New Voice Radio or
WGNT-TV.
Also following the dinner, catered by Simpson's Catering,
guest speaker Michael Johnson of
the Chicago Tribune Sunday
Magazine explained the trends of
modern day journalism.
To cover banquet expenses,
Quill and Scroll sold Bike's candy
bars March 18 through March 22
netting $700. Holding a sock hop
on March 15, members profitted
with $463.
"A lot of work goes into each
layout, not to mention rewriting
copy up to six times! I'm glad
Quill and Scroll recognizes us for
these achievements. People just
don't realize exactly what these
classes entail," voiced Classic reporter Laura Karges.

Smolinski, Alyssa Simpson, Dave
Gosch, Sue Bisciglia and Ron Ancevic received $I 00 scholarships
for outstanding contributions to
journalism.
On April 24 in the auditorium,
the National Honor Society initiated 6 seniors and 50 juniors after
they recited the oath led by President Cheryl Wentland.
Inductees had to have earned a
cumulative 3.5 average on the 4.0
scale or a 4.8 on the weighted
scale at the end of six quarters.
Faculty endorsements were also
required of those eligible.
Picking up the beat, A Capella
Choir vocalized to "Speak to One
Another of Psalms" and the
Golden Strings fiddled to "Or-

ange Blossom Special" to entertain old and new members and
parents.
Prior to initiations, club officers President Cheryl Wentland,
Vice President Jim Gabriel, Secretary Steve Prince and Treasurer
Michelle Paszek ignited candles
and elaborated on the topics of
character, leadership, scholarship
and service.
"As a new member into Honor
Society, I have to admit keeping
my grades up for six straight
quarters wasn't easy but well
worth it," remarked junior Candy
Baumgarten.
"Being a member in NHS is
indicative that a student has met
high academic standards and is
considered highly motivated and
performs at his best ability," concluded counselor Martha Horn.

Ranked number two in her
class and an Editor-in-Chief of
the Classic, senior Mary Blake
is credited with a two-year
membership in both Quill and
Scroll and National Honor Society.
Layouts, copy and captions
along with honors courses like
advanced chemistry and sociology filled Blake's day.
Extracurriculars also played
a major role in Blake's agenda.
Representing the Class of '85
as president, Blake chaired the
recruitment committee for the
Blood Drive on Congress. She
also received nomination for
Homecoming queen and tackled the junior body in Powder

Sharing blends
thrice into spice
A fresh myriad of clubs spiced
up the activity curriculum. The
spectrum ranged from religious to
technological.
In answer to their appeal for a
religious club, 18 students from
various Christian faiths combined
to form the Bible Club along with
their adviser, Mr. Jerry Cooper.
Their objective of receiving and
lending support to fellow members and of sharing companionship with other Christians ranked
top priority.
Unlike other clubs, members
decided not to elect officers.
Since Bible reading and fellowship activities were chosen, no
fundraisers took place.
As the year wore on, members
showed a gradual disinterest.
What remained of the organization were five or six Christians
congregating every Monday to
read and learn verses and lessons
from the Bible.
"The student body displayed
indifference toward us. We were
not questioned about our involvement in the club or even the reasons for its existence," concluded
Reuben Polina .
Advised by Mrs. Sue Lie, Ski
Club anticipated several outings
to Wilmot Mountain ski slopes,
but lack of student skiers parallelled only two trips. Those ski fanatics who were not lucky e.nough
to ski the slopes in personallyowned skis rented for $6.50 and
paid an additional $15 for transportation and lift costs, while others shelled out just the $15 for the

whole package.
Interests were boosted, however, as a weekend trip to Powderhorn in northern Michigan
marked skiers' calendars from
January 25-26 . Aided by $1000
raised from selling M & M's from
November 5-10 and December
17-22, each skier's fee was reduced to $100 for bus transportation, chalet lodging, Saturday
night's meal and lift tickets for
Saturday and Sunday morning.
" Powderhorn still turned out to
be too expensive! It was unfortunate that so many members
couldn't come up with the cash,
because it was really a lot of fun!"
expressed senior Kris Wavro.
When Mr. Cooper was not supervising the Bible Club, he programmed activities for the Computer Club. Members spent most
of their time creating their own
programs and playing well-known
games like Pac Man and other
pre-programmed software packages.
Even students with no former
training were encouraged to join
the club to gain experience and
enjoyment from working with
computers. Access to computer
terminals and informal training
were made available through
membership in this group.
From the knowledge gained
about technological and Biblical
interests to the enjoyment and
pleasure found in recreational activities, the students reaped the
benefits of their membership.
BIBLE CLUB: K. Lane, C. Dissmore, S .

Polina reads
The Word
Practicing his beliefs beyond
the walls of the church, junior
Reuben Polina expressed further faith in the Bible Club.
Through this group, Polina obtained a greater knowledge of
God and shared a religious fellowship with his peers. Unlike
most other groups, the Bible
Club did not act as a service
organization, but as a common
interest group for a few religiously concerned Tremperites.
"I feel an interscholastic Bible club is important because it
binds together Christian students outside their individual
churches," explained Polina.
Guest speakers, prayer and
song filled their weekly Monday meetings. To Polina, a lecture given by a reborn Christian revolving around the topic

Polina mulls modern-day meaning.

of salvation and its advantages
proved inspiring. "In order to
be converted into a Christian, I
had to repent and be forgiven
of my sins. I then got baptized
and went through the process
of sanctification. I was thinking about becoming a preacher, but I know I was not meant
to be one. I know that I can
still witness to people, though,
if they want to listen. I will use
the Bible as a tool to teach others about what it means to be a
Christian," concluded Polina.

State-sized hustle

Shutout defense sacks MAC, falters in State semis
"We shouldn't have had as
good a season as we did, but we
had a team of overachievers.
When we lost to Greendale in our
preseason scrimmage, we never
expected to go all the way to
State," commented Coach Ron
Davies.
Although the football team
started seven juniors and sophomores, they won the MAC Blue
Division, went undefeated in their
first ten games, and advanced to
the State semifinals. Defense led
the team, posting six shutouts, allowing only 17 points, an average
of 2.1 per game in conference and
56 points, 5.1 overall.
Playing their first game at Anderson Field after winning the
season opener against Park at
Horlick, the Trojans came from
behind to defeat South 14-10.
Three turnovers helped the Cardinals take a 10-0 third quarter
lead, although the Trojans totaled
238 yards on offense to South's
27. When QB Rolf Schmitz was
sidelined with a pulled leg muscle,

the fourth quarter. Galley rifled a
I 6-yard pass up the middle for the
first score.
The defense stopped the Cardinals, and the offense took possession. Galley, five of nine for 94
yards, hit end John Andreoli from
the South 25 for the winning TD.
Trojan defense controlled

Bradford for most of three quarters in the annual "Big Game"
between the crosstown rivals on

Recovering from a head injury,

one, 7-6. Faking the point after,
Galley threw to Bob Jesperson,
who snared it in the end zone for
the two point conversion, 8-7.
Schmitz later lofted a 46-yard spiral to Andreoli, and kicker Dan

MAC Blue Division to qualify for
the WIAA playoffs for the first
time since 1980. "We felt we had
something to prove, that we were

State championship teams," explained Clausen.
In the quarterfinals, the Trojans were outgained 284 total
yards to 97, but they overcame

the deficit and beat Muskego, the
Parkland Conference Eastern Division champs, 14-9. Halfback
Kurt Glasman found an opening
in the Warrior goal line defense
and sprinted through for the first
touchdown of the game. Muskego
kicked a field goal at the end of
the first half to make it 7-3. Safety Jesperson picked off a Warrior
pass and ran it back to the 18yard line. Dan Young dove over
from the one for the score and a

back on downs and with less than
one minute on the clock, Glasman
placed a 40-yard punt coffin-corner at the Muskego two and
buried the Warrior threat.
Outmatched by a huge Madison Memorial team, the Trojans
lost in the semifinals, 22-0, at
muddy Mansfield Stadium. Spar-

tan quarterback Mike Fueger
passed for three touchdowns and
278 yards while linemen weighing
230, 220, 215 and 230 pounds
crushed the Trojans on both sides
of the ball. The pass rush of Clausen, Young and Chris Osmon held
Memorial from scoring on their
first three sets of downs, and safety Mike De Labio intercepted.
The Spartans then kicked a field
goal and hurled two touchdowns
for a 15-0 halftime lead. The Trojans gained but four yards rushing, zero passing in the first 24
minutes.
The defense picked up in the
second half when Quilling, Pete
Olep and Young sacked Fueger
for losses, and DeLabio intercepted again.
Memorial put the game out of
reach though with a TD run, good
for the 22-0 final. The struggling
Trojans never gave up, but the offense managed only 36 yards on
the night, 18 on the ground and 18
in the air.
The Trojans' post season ended
with a 10-1 record, while the 10-1

Randy Quilling.

OT caps State trip
Team concept dominates tournament strategy
The Tango ricocheted high off
the crossbar and dropped harmlessly out of bounds, with it fell
the soccer team's hopes of a state
championship. Four tournament
wins in the last two weeks advanced the Trojans to the semifinals of the WIAA State Tournament for the first time in the history of the soccer program .
The squad had started the season with a string of wins and
goals, posting a 3-0-2 record and
second place in the Parkside Invitational. After beating Case, St.
Joseph's and Bradford, the Trojans faced Horlick for the championship of the two day Parkside
Tournament, August 24 and 25 .
Seven yellow and red cards were
given out for overly aggressive
play in a physical game. The Rebels scored first on a shot from the
18 that eluded All-County goalie
Mike Falcon. The Trojans fought
back as midfielder Dan Wikel
drilled the ball to the right rear
corner of the net to tie the game
1-1. Horlick then played for possession, running down the clock
since a tie would clinch the title
for them .
With three minutes left, right
wing Chris Benbow controlled a
pass, turned and fired a shot. The
ball beat the opposing goalkeeper,
but it hit the crossbar and
bounced straight down to the goal
line, where the goalie dove on the

ball. The Rebels then stalled away
the remaining time to capture the
trophy. " I thought Benbow's shot
was in," reflected right fullback
Won Kim.
The runner-up finish did not
deter the Trojans, who went on to
win their next four games, outscoring their opponents 12-2, and
recording three straight shutouts.
The team's winning streak ended
in a 4-0 loss to eventual conference champion Milwaukee South,
the only team to beat the Trojans
in the regular season .
Defense dictated the last five
games as the Trojans scored only
eight goals but allowed only five
in compiling a 2-1-2 record.
The Trojans then faced Mukwonego in Pre-sectionals. On a
muddy, rain slickened football
field, the Trojans ended Mukwonago's season by defeating them 31 off goals by Benbow, center
midfielder Ivan Ireland and center forward Mark Johnson. The
defense keyed the game by keeping the Mukwonago attackers
well away from the Trojans goal.
"Our defense was outstanding all
year, posting six shutouts and
having three defensive players,
goalie Mike Falcon, fullback Jeff
Reget and sweeper Mike Misamore, named to the MAC AllConference team," commented
first year coach Scott Farnsworth.
The win advanced the Trojans

the history of the Tremper soccer
program. The Trojans' first opponent was Horlick, and , once
again, the game was tied 2-2 at
the end of regulation and two five
minute overtimes. Deciding the
game on the best of five penalty
kicks, the first two Rebel shooters
missed wide to the right, while
All-Conference midfielder Jeff
Sedloff, and All-County center
Mark Johnson drilled theirs past
the outstretched hands of the
Horlick keeper. Both teams made
their third shots. As the fourth

attention was directed to AllCounty goalie Mike Falcon, for if
Falcon could stop this shot, the
Trojans would win. "I was guessing right corner, which was where
he tried to go. I dove and tipped
the ball past the post," reflected
Falcon.
The win advanced them to the
round of 16 against Janesville
Parker, where the winner would
qualify for State. The game was
close until the last ten minutes,
when center midfielder Ireland

scored on a diving header off a
cross by center forward Johnson.

earning them a spot in the WIAA
Quarter-finals.
In the first game, the team
faced tournament favorite and
host Neenah . The Trojans and
Rockets traded goals, and at halftime, the score was 1-1. In the
second half, the Trojans took
command and gained the lead on
co-captain Bob Falcon's outside
shot and held on to win 2-1.
In the semi-finals, the team was
eliminated in overtime 1-0 by the
Madison West Regents, the eventual state champions. Each team
had opportunities to win in regulation, with a Madison goal called
back and a Sedloff penalty kick
hitting the crossbar, but the Regents won on a goal in the second
overtime.
Assistant Coach Jim Quinn remarked, "The most important
thing to remember about the season is that one person does not
win or lose a game, it's a team
effort. The team, not the individuals, takes the blame and th
congratulations. We may hav
had great players, but we had a
even greater team."

Volleys break conference record, win Sectional
"We were basically a young
team but surprisingly strong nevertheless. After our coach taught
us the meaning of discipline, we
found out how tough we really
could be," commented number
one doubles player Wendy Owen.
Swinging their racquets
through a very successful season,
the Trojans aced all six Conference matches as a team, losing
only one individual match to Milwaukee Hamilton's number one
singles player Tracey Lange.
Sophomvre Sara Neuenschwander, usually a member of the
junior varsity, played varsity
number one singles against Lange
that day for the temporarily disabled Beth Barden. Barden's serious knee injury restricted her
from midseason competition for
two weeks.
Facing stronger opponents in
non-Conference dual meets, the
team concentrated on patience
and accuracy to win three out of
four matches, losing only to
Racine Case 3-4.

On August 25, the Trojans captured the Wauwatosa West Quadrangular. Julie Selsberg and
Kelley Frederick took singles
first, and Wendy Owen - Stacey
Stanich, Trish Jiminez - Tara
Mason and Courtney BenbowJackie Pileski earned first in doubles.
The girls also rallied to win the
County Quad on September 15.
They defeated cross-town rivals
Bradford, along with St. Joe's and
Wilmot.
At the Milwaukee Area Conference Championship held September 18-20, the team volleyed
their way to seize the traveling
trophy. Out of 56 points, the Trojans achieved a total of 54, an all
time record by any team in the
MAC. Barden, still playing with a
knee handicap, took an individual
second place to Hamilton's Tracey Lange in three long and painful sets 4-6, 6-1, 3-6. Selsberg,
Frederick, Jill Nelson, Owen Stanich, Jiminez - Mason and
Bert bow - Pileski all were awarded

with gold medals. "In the beginning, I thought we were decent
enough to win some matches and
to fare respectably in the Conference, but I never expected to go
41-0, or to capture almost every
championship in the Conference
tournament," exclaimed number
two doubles player Trish Jiminez.
In Sectional competition, the

team accumulated enough points
to overthrow the defending
champs, Whitewater. Coach Henry Thurman reflected, "Winning
the Wauwatosa Quad, the County
ty Championship and the State
Sectionals put the frosting on the
cake. The girls showed great competitiveness and mucho class."
Although previously blessed

with Jess challenging opponents,
the Trojans finally met their
match at the State level. The aggressive number one doubles team
of Owen - Stanich advanced to
State with a 21-0 record, but were
not seeded. At Madison's Nielsen
Tennis Stadium they were defeated by Madison Memorial, a team
recognized as a state power. With
her blazing serve, Barden also
qualified and was ranked in the
top ten. Avenging her loss at the
MAC Championship, Barden defeated Hamilton's Lange 6-2, 6-4
in her first match. She next found
herself on the court opposite Nicolet's Meg Mulcahy, who won
the match and went on to take
second place in the tournament.
"We showed our potential to
become real champions by defending our Conference title and
by winning our Sectional and
qualifying three players for
state," recalled captain Barden.
She concluded, "I think our many
accomplishments resulted from
everyone putting in 110 percent."

player Julie Selsberg gets under the ball and cranks a forehand deep down the line.

After drowning dual meet opponents in a 6-1 season, the Trojans left 13 MAC teams in their
wake at Conference Championships on October 27. Such record
shattering performances and
depth propelled them to first
places in the Conference and Panther Relays as well as the MAC
Championship.
By September 6, Trojan swimmers were quick off the starting
blocks. In their second meet of the
year against Zion-Benton, the
team captured seven first places.
Diving from the one-meter board,
Carrie Ouimet eclipsed the old
school record of 185 with 185.70.

Nudi swam to two wins in the 50
free and the 100 butterfly, and
anchored the 400 relay team of
Kathy DiCello, Ward and
DeWinter, which also finished
first. Carrie Ouimet nailed a diving first.
On October 6, Park, Horlick
and Shorewood treaded water as
the Trojans drove themselves to a
148-point win in the Panther Relays. Three firsts were earned by
the 200 free relay team of Maria
Martinez, Kris Wavro, Joanna
Dennis and Ward; Carrie and
Theresa Ouimet and Stacey Deming in diving; and the 300 butter-

fly relay team consisting of DiCello, Nudi, Denean Sturino and
Heather Malzahn .
The team drowned Bradford on
October 16, taking nine out of 11
events. Carrie Ouimet broke her
own school record with a 189.45
score. Ouimet exclaimed, "I was
overwhelmed to break the record
two times in one year! It really
built up my confidence. My sister
Thersa deserves credit for always
coming up with a close score,
though. I wouldn't have been able
to do so well without the enthusiastic training of Miss Houtz either." Nudi freestyled past the
Devils to take the 50 and I 00.
Ward glided to first in the 200

Sue Gregory in the individual

than the stride of the girl ' cros

Southside upset victory to a tenth

Coach C.W. Bradley predicted at
the start of the season, "The girls

It just takes confidence and teamwork which will develop a time

demonstrated her ability with a
strong 13:56 showing, good for
16th place. Sophomore Amy Edwards, a runner on Bradford's
squad as a freshman, came in 21 t
place with a time of 14:08.
In the Pulaski Ram Invitational, the highlight of the race
was Hunkeler beating out Bradford's Sue Lesko by four seconds
to place fourth in 13:32. The Trojans placed seventh out of 12
schools with a score of 184.

The West Allis Hale Invitational wa the low point of the
season as the Trojans placed tenth

biggest problem we had was injuries. Because of them, some of our

Draniflg u fo11/ uftl'r 1111• ,/u1t uguin't f>uhi>ki, senior Wendy Hunkcler si nks the shot and looks for
possible three-point play to tie the game at 40, late in the third quarter.

Double trouble duo
Harmon, Hunkeler crash UPI state poll to ninth
With 20 seconds left, center
Wendy H unkeler pulled down a
rebound and fired an outlet pass
to guard Michele Harmon. Harmon drove upcourt and launched
a 20-foot jumper which swished
through just as the buzzer sounded.
In stead of congratulating
themselves, the team watched as
the Horlick Rebels got the pats on
the backs. Even though Harmon's
shot had sunk, the Trojans still
lost by two, 52-50 in the first
round of the WIAA Regionals.
It was a two player game, as
Harmon netted 30 points and
Hunkeler added 20 more. "We've
seen it before this season," remarked Coach John Schmidt.
"Shelly is just outstanding and
Wendy works as hard as a nyone I
can think of." Tremper had led at
the half by three points, 30-27,
but that lead vanished as the Rebels outscored the Trojans 18- 7.
Sophomore Stacey Stanich stat-

ed, "We played a really tough
first half."
Playing their first game in Milwaukee, the Trojans had to adjust
to a rotating orth defense in order to win. Harmon had a typical
first half, scoring ten points. At
the start of the second half, orth
switched to a box-and-one defense, keying on Harmon. Going
to the open player, the team fed
Hunkeler who was posted up in
the paint. She hit eight goals and
shot eight of 11 from the line to
finish the game with 30 points and
lead the Trojans to victory, 63-56.
Playing at home on December
18 against Milwaukee North, it
was another two point game, only
this time two points were under
the name "HOME" on the scoreboard. It was a typical Harmon,
H unkeler performance with one
addition, guard Tracy Burbach.
Burbach scored ten points and
played a tenacious defensive
game before fouling out with :52

left. Ann Bolis of orth then sunk
both free throws to tie the game at
38.
After trading possessions,
Tremper had the ball out of
bounds with : 12 remaining. Hunkeler, who had ten points, passed
the ball in to Harmon who dribbled across the court and pulled

"We started the season
well, but we seemed to
fade at the end."
Michelle Harmon
the trigger on a 17 footer from the
top of the key with :02 left. These
final two points gave her 18 for
the night, and Tremper a victory.
Against cross-town rival Bradford, a month later, defense was
the deciding factor. The Red Devils came back from a nine point
deficit at the half, to tie it up after

three quarter . All five Tremper
starters contributed points in the
47-51 loss with Harmon leading
all scorers with 26 points.
"When Bradford switched from
a 2-3 zone to a box-and-one, it
confused us," renected Harmon.
One of the highlights of the season came in late January when the
Trojans, 11-3, were ranked ninth
in the state Pl poll. Stated Burbach, "It was really neat. We finally got some of the recognition
we de erve."
ine of 20 sea on games were
decided by less than a seven point
spread. Six losses in the last eight
games left only Regionals for a
shot at a title.
"Most of our games were close,
just like our two point loss to Horlick in Regionals. Our games were
pretty much endurance. I don't
know if that i the word, but we
never gave up," stated guard
Leann Huxhold.

Balanced perfortnance
Junior trio tumbles to Sectionals; one leaps to State
Landing a second in Conference, ending Candice Baumgarten to State, and dominating the
Salem Central Invitational to
capture the' title, all highlighted
the Varsity Gymnastics team's
season .
Starting off on the right foot,
the team leaped on Hamilton with
an 87 .07 total to their 56.26.
Baumgarten executed seconds on
the uneven bars, the balance
beam, all-around performance,
and tied with Captain Theresa
Ouimet on the floor exercise. Ouimet also stuck a second on the
vault; Baumgarten a close . 15
points behind, received third
place . Captain Dawn Boyd double
back handspringed to a third on
the balance beam .
The Trojans landed firmly after
Christmas vacation. On January
12, the girls captured the Salem
Central Invitational by a slight
.005. Boyd took second on the
beam with an 8.2 score, and also
added fourth and sixth places on
the floor and all-around performance respectively . Boyd remarked, "I was pretty happy with
our performance because we
hadn ' t competed since before win-

ter break ." Baumga rten also collected points, third on the unevens, fourth all-around , and sixth
on the beam and vault. Shelly
Matson 's second place on the
beam and Ouimet's first on the
vault and floor exercise also
tacked points to the team total.
Four days later, the Trojans
crushed Marshall with a stunning
95 .85 to 29 . 19. Baumgarten's
eagle caught first on the unevens,
placed first on the beam and allaround, and third on the floor.
Ouimet captured the floor with a
back layout, hit second on the unevens and tied Matson for second
on the vault. Boyd vaulted to a
first , full twisted to second on the
floor , and swung a third on the
unevens . Rodriguez added a second place on the beam, and Matson sprung to second on the vault.
The Trojans tumbled a 104.94
victory over Vincent's 95.81. Ouimet anchored the team by receiving firsts on the unevens and floor,
and tied Baumgarten for first with
a 8.25 on the vault. Baumgarten
also earned second place allaround, which posted a new
school record of 7.99, plus a third
on the unevens. Boyd tallied two

seconds, one on the floor exercise,
one on the beam, and a third
vaulting over the horse. "Even
though the Milwaukee schools
were easy to beat, we always put
in 100 percent," explained Ouimet.
The team danced past all Milwaukee Area Conference opponents except Bradford at the
Bradford Field House on February 16. Ouimet full twisted for a

"A new team record of
I 04.92 prepped us for
Regionals."
Shelly Matson
firs t on the floor with a 8.05 total,
an d fifth on the unevens. Boyd
dismounted a back handspring
back aerial for a second, setting a
new school record of 8.35, placed
third on the floor routine and allaround and sixth on the vault.
Baumgarten earned sixth place
for the floor and eighth on the
unevens. Rodriguez, Matson, Kris
Gotelaere, Chris Hines, Wendy
Norris and Lisa Roeder contri-

buted team points to the second
place finish in the MAC.
Nearing the close of the season,
Baumgarten qualified for WIAA
Sectionals. Baumgarten's handstand rolled to an 8.05 second
place beam routine . Ouimet
qualified sixth on the vault, unevens and floor . Boyd completed a
fifth place floor exercise.
Baumgarten went solo after
Sectionals, qualifying for the
WIAA State competition on the
balance beam. She earned a 7.95,
which mounted to a third place.
Traveling to Wisconsin Rapids
for the State meet, Baumgarten
recalled, "I wish others could
have qualified also . Even though I
d idn't finish too well, it was still a
great learning experience." Losing her balance due to nervousness, she fell off the beam twice,
which left her a 7.73 score, 27th in
the state.
Coach John Chase concluded,
"I feel we had a very successful
season not only in terms of our
accomplishments at each meet,
but in how each individual athlete
kept improving all year long. Every girl worked extremely hard;
that's the most important thing.

S-wept a-way
Individual wins drown in pool of inexperience
"The team was comparatively
young. We had only four seniors
on the team. Against greater
odds, they floundered," summarized Coach Jerry Burmeister.
"When the underclassmen raced
swimmers with equal experience,
as in the Freshman/Sophomore
Conference Meet, we placed
higher." He ended, "As to the 0-7
season record, what happened was
pretty much what I expected."
Despite the dismal dual meet
record, a few Trojans captured
numerous individual awards. In
the season opener against South
Milwaukee, Kurt Richter nailed a
202.43 first with his forward
somersault with a half twist in
diving to supplement a first in the
relay. The Trojans scored 83 to
South's 89, only six points short,
the closest they would come to
victory all season.
The team raced at South Milwaukee for the first invitational of
the season, placing third in the
Rocket Invitational. The 800
freestyle team of Curt Deininger,
Tim Petlock, Randy Rosko, and
Jeff Wirch and the 300 back-

stroke team of Mike Camosy,
Norb Kramer, Darin Schnabel,
and Wirch swam for silver. "The
first meets are usually trial and
error, to see which people are best
in each event. There was a lot of
'fitting' involved, and the errors
brought us down," explained Paul
Koch.
Against Racine Case, the team
again washed out, this time losing
101 to 71. "We had a few good
individual swimmers," repeated
Camosy, "but they didn't make
up for our lack of depth." Damien
Marhefka clocked a 2:07.50 first
in the 200 free and stroked in second in the 500 free. Kelly Krizmanich bettered his first place
time in the backstroke to 1:04.50,
but settled for second in the 200
IM with 2:21.66. Mike Sekuris
sprinted second in both the 50 and
100 freestyles. Richter easily hit a
first with 176 points while teammate Greg Istvanek plunged in
second. Marhefka, Sekuris, Chris
Wade, and Krizmanich ended the
meet by crawling to a second in
the 400 relay.
Conference Relays challenged

the boys to take fourth out of the
thirteen team invitational. Tech
defended its title with 346 points,
with Bradford repeating second
with 310 points. The Trojans
placed a close 272 points behind
third place Custer's 278. Istvanek,
Troy Hoslein, and Richter dove
for the team, totalling enough to
give them conference firsts. The

"Our season record did
not reflect our actual
improvement."
Kurt Richter
300 backstroke squad of Camosy,
Krizmanich, Leon Sniegowski,
and Wade powered in to second,
beating the Red Devils to the silver. Chris Lueck, Sekuris, Brian
Harper, and Marhefka butterflied
300 meters to take third.
The Freshman/Sophomore
Meet showed the team's real potential. Competing in the thirteen
team conference, the Trojans controlled the invitational with 308

points. Bradford placed second
with 234, with Hamilton following in third with 209. Eric Reiche
and Marhefka were the only sophomores to score firsts, but the
backbone of the score was the solid fourth, fifth, and sixth place
finishes the other members set.
Marhefka was the only swimmer to win a medal in the MAC
Conference Championship, the
Trojans placing third. He touched
in the 200 free with 1:56.43, besting Conference Champion Tech's
Todd Michaels, who clocked in
second with 1:56.95. Marhefka
also won the 500 free, clocking
5: 19.58 ahead of second place
Chris Camp from Tech, who
crawled in with 5:28.186.
In the WIAA Sectional, Marhefka missed a trip to State when
he trailed second behind South
Milwaukee's Mark Gouge in the
200 free, but Marhefka set his
season best with 1:55.4. Richter,
on the other hand, qualified for
the meet at UW-Madison. He
was seeded twenty-second but
placed two better, twentieth in
state.

Dri1ing to the touchpad, Damien Marhefka freestyles to place first in the 200 free with
I :56.43 at the Conference Championship on February 2.

Winter gatnes
Snow sports plow through ups and downs
As the days grew shorter and
the air turned crisp, winter weather lovers bundled up and ventured
out into the newly fallen snow to
limber up for winter sports.
Skis were dragged out of the
closet, boots and poles reappeared, and ice skates were taken
from the shelf and dusted off.
Backyards turned into "bunny
hills" for overanxious skiers who
wanted to check that their equipment "still worked!" Nearby
ponds, too, transformed overnight
to ice arenas.
Down hill skiing racked up the
third largest number of enthusiasts. Among the 197 students
polled, 42 percent chose to spend
chilly days on the slopes. The majority cruised out to Wilmot at
every available chance, while
some tried paralleling at Americana and Alpine Valley. A few
seri ous downhillers packed their
overnight bags and travelled to
Wisconsin's "mountains." These
dedicated skiers left their signatures in the snow at such spots as
R ib Mountain, Indianhead,
Blackjack and Devil's Head . Senior Steve Prince remarked, "Since
we can't go to Colorado every
weekend, it's nice to be a ble to go
somewhere like Powderhorn and

Blackjack for a little more variety
and challenge."
While only a few said "yes" to
Michigan, the 28 percent of crosscountry fans escaped to such
courses as Petrifying Springs,
Bristol Oaks and Old World Wisconsin. "There are many places to
go cross-country skiing; you just
have to search for them . All you
need is spacious land with a few
hills to break the monotony!" explained senior Dan Murphy.
I mprovisors drifted through
foreign backyards and fields, deserted beaches, and public parks,
dodging trees, people, and snow
covered swingsets and slides.
Those who lived on a street that
was "the last in the city to be
plowed," tackled the long, untouched strips from the latest
downfall.
Ice skating attracted an additional 27 percent of the persons
surveyed. Competitive figure
skaters glided at the Kenosha
County Ice Arena. Others sought
out the less fo rmal atmosphere at
Lincoln Park, nearby ponds, or at
a friend's house who was fortunate enough to be allowed to flood
their back yard or porch. "I don't
take ice skating very seriously, so
it's fun just to go out on a pond

somewhere with a friend," stated
sophomore Margo Vite.
While the indoor KCIA leagues

students polled laced up their
skates and grabbed a stick for a
grueling outdoor hockey match.
An overwhelming 81 percent of
students searched their garages
for forgotten sleds, toboggans and
over ized tire tubes, and headed
out in search of a challenging hill.

"Hitting the slopes
beat hitting
I
the books!"
Jeff Reiter
An active 72 percent dove down
the steep slopes at Pets, while
many others made tracks at
Was hington Bowl and Lincoln
Park.
Persistent "tubers" lugged their
wheels out to Wilmot's and Maplecrest's special tubing runs.
Like others who zagged down
backyard hills, junior Dan Wikel
commented, "It's convenient having my own hill to use; it's less
crowded and I can run right inside
if it gets too cold." An added six

percent of the students raced
along on snowmobiles across open
fields and vacant lots.
Even in winter, a few people
swung a bat and literally slid into
home plate in a frosty version of
baseball known as iceball. Other
athletes trained in the areas of
snowman scu lpture and snowball
fights.
Braving the cold with their
friends, students searched for
chilly fun during the long winter
days.

"We got off to a slow start, but
by the end of the season we won
two meets and sent Rolf Schmitz
to State," summarized Steve
Schauer. "The season went by
pretty fast, especially indoor season; we had to be in shape for it."
The boys' track team experienced a rude awakening as they
placed 13th out of the 16 teams
competing at the Park Invitational. Case won the meet with 97
points followed by Park's 66.
"The first meet is always the
toughest ," commented Coach
C.W. Bradley. "This meet determined possible candidates for
State and that's who the coaching
staff concentrated on." Earning
four points for Tremper, Kevin
Smith placed a 4:43.3 fourth behind Case's Hopkins in the mile.
Schmitz earned a point by placing
sixth in the shot put with 46' 11 ".

Trio tracks titles
Kentcy jumps state's gun for a disqualification
"On your marks , get set ...
BANG!" At that moment, any
hope of a State victory vanished
as Demere Kentcy sprinted out of
the I 00-meter starting block too
soon. Kentcy's false start in the
WIAA State Meet at Madison's
Mansfield Stadium on May 31
did not prevail, however, throughout the girls track team 's season .
In their first meet against Bradford on March 5, the team took
off with a slow start as they failed
to mark up any points in the 60yard intermediate hurdles and the
60-yard low hurdles. However,
the final score, 51-49, did reflect
the team's efforts. Scoring a first
place, Kentcy jumped 15 feet 10
inches, defeating Bradford ' s
Yvette Bardwell's 15 feet 7.75
inches. Kentcy placed first again
with a 7 .59 second time in the 60yard dash . Also adding to the
tight score, Wendy H unkeler's
endurance outlasted Bradford's
Julie Cardinelli to give H unkeler
a 5-minute 51 .3 seconds gold
medal mile.
Seven days later at the Case
Triangular, the team accepted a
second place with another 49
point total, again, two short of the
winning 51, but still higher than
Brookfield's 45. Losing an inch

from her 14 feet 7 inches long
jump at the Bradford meet, Lana
Solberg took first with a 14 feet 6
inches followed by teammate
Kentcy's 14 feet 4 inches. Crossing the finish line 0.2 seconds before Brookfield's Jarmol, Kentcy
sprinted in the 55-meter dash to a
:07.4 victory . Hunkeler, too ,
placed first in the triple jump with
a 31 feet 33 inches measurement.
At March 25 's Park Quadrangular Meet, Hunkeler cut 20 seconds off her 5:31 March 5 mile
and 2:29 off her 880-meter run .
With these times, she pulled
through for a first in each event.
Hunkeler also chalked up a first
with a triple jump of 31 feet 8.5
inches. Nicole Nudi put in her
winning 10 points with a 31 feet
10.25 inches shot put, seven
inches farther than Park's 31 feet
3.25 inches throw. These efforts
surpassed Burlington's 43 points,
but fell one point shy of Bradford's 51 and 15 points short of
Park's 67 .
Highlighting the season, the
girls finished third out of five with
87 points in the Greendale Relays. "Due to the nature of the
Panther Meet, the team worked
together in unity. This was the
first time the team saw a common

goal," commented Coach Charles
Bradley. The 4x400-meter relay
team of Kentcy, Tippy Gurgol,
Ingrid Hannes and Dannielle
Fossy pulled together and ran the
4x400-meter relay in 53.44, a first
place finish. The same combo also
plunged to a first place in the 800meter relay with a 1:54.51 time.
Two more teams grabbed the
gold . Hunkeler, Gurgol, Amy Edwards and Kim Petersen broke
the 3200-meter relay tape in
11 :03.77. The sprint medley of
Kentcy, Hannes, Fossy and Wen-

"The team united hard
work and talent for an
MAC fifth."
Trish Jiminez
dy Norris dashed for the fourth
first place of the evening with a
2:02.5 time.
During the May 16 MAC Girls
Outdoor Championships at Pulaksi Stadium, Kentcy ran a 12.5
100-meter dash to seize the Trojan's only conference first. The final stack up laced the Trojan
team in fifth place with 52 points.
Most Valuable Athlete Hun-

keler and Most Improved Athletes Solberg and Kentcy represented the team at the University
of Wisconsin- Parkside for Regional competition on May 20. To
place third out of six competitors,
Solberg threw the discus 100 feet
11.75 inches. Kentcy sprinted to a
12.8 in the I 00-meter dash for a
second place finish and earned
another silver for her 26 . l 200meter run . In the 800-meter Hunkeler strode through in third place
for her 2:22.7 time.
All three girls advanced to the
May 23 Sectionals at Milwaukee
Pulaski . Here, Hunkeler triple
jumped 33 feet 6.5 inches for
third place and ran the 800-meter
in 2:27 for a fourth place medal.
Kentcy crossed the 100-meter
dash finish in 12. 14 for a second
place. Kentcy also earned a third
place for her 26.6 200-meter dash.
Solberg's discus throw landed at
92 feet 7 inches for fourth.
Only Kentcy's second was good
enough for a trip to State.
Kentcy's false start immediately
disqualified her from the meet.
"Knowing that my 12.4 in the
100-meter dash tied for the third
best qualifying time among the 16
girls at State, I'll always wonder,
'what if I didn't false start'," concluded Kentcy.
The thrills of rictory set in as Wendy
Hunkeler congratulates Kim Patersen for
her 53.44 in the 3200-meter relay.
Breaking through the tape in 1:01.5, Wendy orris pushes for a first place finish at

Duals spin 7-0's
Shifted lineup finesses two to State Tournament
From Pulaski to Bradford, the
boys tennis team never eased up
with a string of six 7-0 conference
dual match victories. They trampled Hamilton, Bay View, South
and Tech. Only invitational and
tournament play ubdued the onlaught of Trojan wins.
The dual meet ladder usually
read John Stoebe, number one
singles; Greg Kaldor , number two
singles; Chris Oquist, number
three singles; and Andy Callahan,
number four singles. The three
doubles pairs respectively marked
Ted Cabili-Dave Maurer, Steve
Prince-Jeff euenschwander and
Jori Yan Den Bergh-Mark Terwall. Tournament play brought
strategic juggling of the lineup to
secure wins.
Placing second in the Kenosha/Racine Invitational on April
20, the number two and number
three doubles teams seized firsts.
Cabili-Maurer, the number two
team, defeated Bay View and
Bradford without much sweat,
but then worked for their win over
Horlick 6-1, 4-6, 6-4. "After
smashing Bradford and Bay View,
Returning a backhand ene against Hamilton 's number two doubles team, Da ve
Maurer rushes the net to join his partner,
Ted Cabili and end the match 6-0, 6-2.

we became a little too over-confident, and we almo t broke under
Horlick. Luckily, we pulled ourselves together in the third set,"
recalled number two doubles
player Ted Cabili .
The number three duo of
Prince- euenschwander hit
many down-the-line passing shots
to overcome Case and Horlick, in
a three-setter, and Bradford in the
finals.
The number one team of
Stoebe-Kaldor swing into
Tremper's only second . They easily passed nion Grove 6-0, 6-0
and Case 6-1, 6- l before losing in
a tough final to St. Catherine's 26, 4-6 .
In the Brookfield/Wauwatosa
Invitational, Stroebe and Kaldor
put their heads together to earn a
consolation first at number one
doubles on May 4. They lost their
opening match but then volleyed
to victory over Tosa West a nd a
close 5- 7, 6-2, 7-6 win over Madison West.
At number two doubles, CabiliMaurer netted fourth. By playing
an aggressive serve-and-vo lley

game, the two defeated Tosa East
in the opener but lost their next
two matches to Horlick and
Greendale. With a higher level of
competition than MAC duals, the
team placed seventh out of eight
chool over all.
On the first day of the MAC
tournament on May 21, the team
drew first-round byes. On Bradford's courts, each member of the
varsity team then stroked through
his next match to advance to the

competition hurt us at

finals the following day at Washington Park in Milwaukee.
H~re, six fir t were claimed
from the eleven Milwaukee
schools. Bradford 's number two
doubles team broke Tremper's
monopoly by beating Princeeuenschwander 6-3, 6-1 in the
finals . Number four singles player
Andy Callahan commented, "We

were pretty solid throughout the
whole MAC tourney, having beaten most of the schools earlier."
At the Sub-Sectional competition on May 20, the number one
doubles team of Stoebe-Kaldor
and the number two duo of Cabili-Maurer both aced their two
matche to advance to Sectionals
on May 22.
Back on Bradford's turf for
Sectionals, they needed to win
only their first match to qualify
for State. In a three-setter, CabiliMaurer lost to Delevan 6-4, 6- 7
(tiebreaker 4- 7), 6-7 (tiebreaker
8-10). With put-away volleys,
Stoebe-Kaldor downed Elkhorn
6-1, 6-2, lost to Horlick 4-6, 5-7
and then captured third by defeating Delavan 6-2, 6-2. Tremper
netted a second overall.
Swinging to Madison's Nielsen
Tennis Stadium for the WIAA
State Championship, Stoebe-Kaldor lost in the first round to
Brookfield Central 1-6, 2-6.
Brookfield Central swept the

Pickup gatnes sack lunch
Fitness contestants challenge obstacle records
As homework, jobs, activities
and cars competed for students'
after school hours, intramurals
gave an alternative to the tension
of the 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
grind. Through the intramural
program, directed by Mrs. Carol
Houtz, student athletes competed
in five sports.
Weight training, supervised by
Mr. Ron Davies, was the most
popular, with about 25 people a
night, three days a week all year.
Most lifters were guys, but girls
also worked out. Some were on
varsity spots like wrestling, track
and cross country and repped and
maxed in training, but others just
wanted to use the Universal,
benches, squat rack and leaper. "I
like working out in the weight
room because I can be with
friends from school. It's free, unlike health clubs and gyms, and
it's easily available," explained
Mark Goetz.
Fencing club was co-sponsored
by the intramural program. Ms.
Jean Schultz instructed about 14
members a session in the cafeteria. "I learned the basics of fencing, the foil and the epee and the
en garde position in fencing club,"
stated Matt Boris.
Fourth and fifth hours, about
20 students a shift bounced and
spiked in pickup basketball and
volleyball games. "I played basketball at lunch because we made
our own rules and called our own
fouls," said Randy Norstrom.
Six school records were broken
in Fitness Challenge, held the
week of March 4-8 . Sophomore
Gary Nephew set a new mark
with 25 pull-ups and sophomore
Wendy Burnett timed 54 seconds

in the flex arm hang.
Contestants in the famed Trojan Obstacle Course swung on the
rings, long jumped, shot a free
throw, climbed the rope, crawled
under the hurdles, did a pull-up,
jumped over the mats, did sit-ups,
ran through the tires and sprinted
to the finish . This event was extended to two days for the second
year in a row because f student
interest. Junior Al Rodriguez

"Our two teams were
out to bring the record
to Latin Club."
Thad Jensen
clocked :46.53. Senior Cheryl
Wentland broke her own, record
with 1:09 .04, 6.36 less than her
junior time.
Clubs competed four member
teams in the club competition.
Latin Club 1: Dawn Heins, Thad
Jensen, John Margetson and Damien Marhefka; set team records
in the sit-ups and pull-ups/flex
arm hang with 94.375 percent,
but they missed the overall record
by one percentage point.
New individual class records
were set in 21 categories. Mr.
Wes Holman presented awards
during the Spring Sports Assembly on April 19.
"Intramurals serves a need. It
helps students get their frustrations out, burn off energy and release tension. They get a few minutes of enjoyment and a little
competition in a unstructured environment where they can make
their own rules," concluded Mrs.
Houtz.

Late surge strikes out
Cold bats and gloves boot winning season
Exce sive errors doubled up
weak hitting as the ba eball team
could not touch all the bases toward repeating to State. Thwarted all season, the Trojans banged
out only six hits to Central's 12 in
the 5-3 Sectional loss.
Because of rain, the sea on
opener slid in two days late. However, the Trojans held on to two
first inning runs, clipping Racine
Horlick 2-1. Pitcher Mike Herrick threw six trong innings,
striking out 11 , walking one and
allowing two hits . Center fielder
John Andreoli led off the first
with a walk, took econd on a
ground out, stole third, then
scored when the Horlick catcher
threw into left field. Shortstop
Mark Gascoigne doubled , also
stole third and scored on first
ba eman Tony Gedelei's single.
Exploding in their first MAC
victory over Madison, I 1-1, the
tables turned as the Trojans
pounced on the opponents' errors.
The game was called after five
innings because of the ten-run
rule .

Capitalizing on six Knight errors, the Trojans crossed the plate
three times in the third. Pitcher
Justin Schaubel reached on an error and cooted to econd on another error. Andreoli was safe on
an error. Running for Schaubel ,
Ron Zuehlsdorf motored home on
an error.
After designated hitter Jim
Gerde grounded into a fielder 's
choice, Gedelei was also safe
when he lined an infield grounder
that the Madison shortstop mishandled . Gerdes scored on the
play. Gascoigne's line single to
left sent Gedelei home. Gascoigne
later dealt the key blow in the
fourth, drilling a three-run double.
After a split of the next two
games, Herrick scattered eight
hits, struck out four and walked
three a the Trojans overcame
Vincent 7-5. It was the first time
in six years that a Trojan team
had defeated the Vikings.
Later, in a double header

Cut off at Regionals
Hard hitting and solid fielding strike MAC third
Capturing third place in the
Milwaukee Area Conference, the
success of the girls softball season revolved around games with
top contenders Bay View and Pulaski. Through the tenth game of
the season, the MAC was up for
grabs. When the quieted Trojan
bats succumbed to Bay View's 45
m.p.h. windmill pitcher in the 2-9
loss, a battle for second awaited
the Trojan-Ram matchup.
In hard-hitting innings against
Pulaski, defense dominated the
struggle for both Trojans and
Rams. Throughout the first three
innings, Pulaski and Tremper exchanged runs as the Trojans led 32. After two clean hits and two
walks, Pulaski led in the fourth.
Four runs crossed the plate, giving the Rams a 6-3 edge.
The Trojan offense boomed in
the bottom of the fifth with Sue
Ruhle's solo home run, and Most
Improved Michelle Umschied's
two RBI's tieing the game 6-6.
"It was a great feeling. We
came back and tied the game for
the extra inning. I couldn't believe
it, though, when that Pulaski outfielder smacked a home run way
out in left, almost to the goal post
on the football practice field!
That won them the game and a
second in the MAC. We just

couldn't get a hit during our last
bats," reflected third baseman
Stacey Stanich in reviewing the 86 loss.
In the contest against Bay
View, the girls bore down for the
Bay View pitching ace. "We were
so hyped up for this game. Losing
once to them last year was enough
for me. We worked great as a
team against them. It was our best
played and most exciting game,"
explained 110% Award recipient
and Co-captain Ann Colter.
Breaking the tension, lead-off
batter Sue Ruhle cracked a single
off the 45 m.p.h. 12 inch. Ruhle
was eventually driven in by MACAil Conference selection Donna
Danello and Tremper grabbed a
slim 1-0 lead.
MVP and Co-captain Angela
Wahoski struck out the first three
Red Cats. Bay View bounced
back to take a fourth inning lead
3-2. During Trojan last bats,
Colter came up after Ruhle
walked to first. Nailing a double
to left, Colter advanced Ruhle to
tie the game.
In the extra inning Tremper remained unable to score. With the
Trojans on defense, the situation
stood with two outs, two strikes
and a Red Cat in scoring position.

tempted a bunt, landing it foul.
Due to MAC regulations, this finished the contest in a 3-3 tie.
Regaining the winning streak,
offense reigned tough again. Undefeated Pulaski was the team to
beat for a top spot in the MAC.
Wahoski went 3 for 3 and Tracy
Burbach 3 for 4. The Trojans

"We lost it all in the first inning. Central scored six runs on
our six errors. Everyone got mentally down and just fell apart. It's
hard to believe how the season
ends in a matter of an hour," reflected catcher Tracy Burbach.
One hit by Danello and two by
Burbach were the extent of the
Tremper offense. The lone run
came in the fourth inning when,

Bogeys, double bogeys and
three putts penalized the golf
team all season . They failed to
qualify as a team or individually
for Sectionals and State. The Trojans lost their first conference
match in two years and placed
third in the dual meet season, but
they scrambled to their best total
for the Conference Championship.
Undefeated in five conference
meets, the Trojans played a quadrangular against Madison, Tech
and Pulaski on Friday, May 17,

on the par 36 front nine at Oakwood in Milwaukee. Captain
Todd Smolinski shot 42 to Mike

Madison tallied 171 to Tremper's
180 as the Trojans lost their first
conference match in two years.
Tech shot 185 and Pulaski hacked

to 206. " We should have beaten
Madison, but they shot their lowest score of the year. One player
didn't lose it for us; everyone had
to cut a couple of strokes for us to
win," explained Myer.
Three days later, Monday, May
20, the 7-1 Trojans faced Hamilton at the Kenosha Country Club
on the par 35 front nine. Hamilton was 10-0 and tied for first in
the MAC. If Tremper could beat
Hamilton and then Vincent and
South on Friday and Hamilton
beat Madison, the Trojans could
finish in a three way tie for first.
Smolinski shot 46, and lost to
Brian Janz, who had 40. Weipert
led the varsity with 43 and beat
John Brycki, who had 52. Legler

After a bad chip, Browning three

Smolinski was named to the
five man All-Conference team.
He was 9-1-1 in dual meets with a
42.09 average.
"Making the All-Conference
team was an honor because I received more votes from the
coaches than anyone else in the
conference," concluded Smolinski.

bowing down the infamous cheeseburgers and Rooteer Whirl, Tre mperit es hit the summ er hot-Spot.

Packing the school year into treasured
memories, students retraced the excitement of Tremper through football and
basketball games, Friday night sock hops
and teenage pressures. These visions of
places and purchases stirred accounts of
each event.
Like typical teenagers, the big date motivated girls desiring "just the right look."
To obtain a unique style, many traveled to
area beauticians like Judy's Hair Care.
Meanwhile, the guys carefully checked
out Ruffalo's pan style pizza or Burger
King to make a special night complete.
That night, while driving mom and dad's
'85 Toronado from Granger Olds, that
special guy smiles in embarrassment reflecting on his rusty '73 Gremlin.
While some consistently went out on
weekends, the not-so-fortunate suffered
from the weekend blues. Left "dateless"
on a Saturday night, kids became thrifty
and rented "Risky Business" or "Sixteen
Candles" from Video Express.
Cruisin' the town or pulling into a parking space at The Spot to "kick back" and
chow down on a juicy hamburger and icy

root beer also topped other inexpensive
entertainment lists.
Grilling bratwurst and hot dogs from
Tenuta 's with buns from Paielli's Bakery
combined to break the monotony of the
week. Volleyball, frisbee and softball
equipment purchased from Sport Shack
refreshed coed sporting excitement at
Pet's Park.
Reflecting on classroom encounters and
even skip days at the Jake, students drifted
to future speculation. Someday, a
Tremper student could possibly be high on
the corporate ladder to success. To become an upper management figure at
Jockey International, Snap-on-tools or a
Crosetto and Vash attorney at Jaw was a
dream that prompted students to enroll in
Accounting, Math Analysis or American
Government classes.
Yet, in the daily routine, wisps of the
past mingled with purchases of the moment as shoppers scanned Kenosha businesses for prom dresses, cars and fast food.
Later, retracing '85 and recalling yearbook ads revived the moments and places
of Deja Vu.

Continued peer pre sure or " the high
some of my friends get is what keep them
drinking," explained junior Laura Zeis e.
Experimentatio , problems and parental
or sibling influence accounted for the start
of alcohol use by teens, but peer pressure
prevailed as with most other drug . More
"experienced" teen nudged the more hesitant one to encounter the high.
Some statistics brewed from a randomly
distributed alcohol survey of 36 sophomore , 40 juniors and 24 seniors. Thirtyeight percent drank an average of 5 or
more drin s per week. If concerned parents wondered how liquor got into adolescent hands, 11 percent ironically obtained
it from tlieir parents. Another 14 percent
got rid of the middle 01an and "can get
liquor at a couple of places," boasted a

junior.
Imita ·vely there was a trend toward the
"working men" tradition of drinking beer,
with 67 percent preferring it over other
drinks. The female selection was wine.
Eleven percent, all female, drank it when
the opportunity or desire truck. Others
preferred to hit the bottle with 9 percent
drinking hard liquor.
Even with numerous juveniles drinking,
this survey showed a movement toward
drunk driviQg precautions. Fifty-eight percent designated a non-drinking driver
when drinking in a group. In contradiction, "It will be a long time before teens
start absorbing the crucial message about
the hazards of drinking and driving," excla ·med M(. Andrew Fennema, counselor.

No more warning I bets. o more
worries. I July of 1983 nutra weet wa
officially o){ yed and was proven not to
contain evil that might po e threats to
health. "Even though n'Utraswee was
deemed okay, there will alway be questions o its validity," stated th Federal
Drug Ad inistration.
A to whether or not it had a s eet
taste stumped nutrasweet sa piers.
e nutrasweet product was calculated
to be 200 1 es weeter than sugar.
"I as surprised tha the po I wa
drinking h;id nutra weet in it. It tasted
better and didn't have a bad aftertaste
like drinks sweetened with ugar," commented senior ancy DeBartolo.
utrasweet filled a variety of products like "Extra" gum and "Jello"
elatin and catered to students without
the added calories of sugar. Becau e
of its new nutrasweet flavor, a recent
Tab commercial for TV tated, "You
won't drin Tab bec:ftuse you have to,
you'll drink Tab because you want to?'
"I am glacithere' som thing out that
allo s me to enjoy ore foods than before, and this time it isn't hazardous,"
added junior Don Wagner, a diabetic.
Like most new developments, nutrasweet possessed some drawbacks. A
evidence by rising grocery prices, products containing nutrasweet hit the wallet harder than the Iegular sugar sweetened products. At the Super Yalu located at 3803 80th Street, a one-liter bottle
of "Dr. Pepper" sweetened with sugar
was $ 1.45 while "Tab" containing nutra weet was jacked to $1.55.

Controversy raged as to whether or not
utrasweet was a health hazard. CBS new
spo~e of "a thousand letters from people
complaining about dizziness, insomnia and
even two cases of brain seizures" when they
used the product in e cess .
Much like other new product fads, nutrasweet co Id very well slip i to oblivion as it is
replaced by an eve better ugar ubstitute.
For now, nutra weet reigns as an enterprising
ingredient in ever:ything from ch wing gum to
soda pop.

Libe:i:al, courageous and even
gut y described what sophomore ,
juniors and seniors thoughlof any g"rl who
asked a guy for a date.
From a survey conducted of 80 students
from one honors, one regular and one basic class, over 60 percent agreed to "go for
it" when the traditional role of guys a king
girls to a formal dance wa reversed. However, on the opposite end of the scale, 39
percent thought the conventional custom
held a more appropriate standpoint. "I feel
that if a girl wants to ask a guy out as a
friend, it's okay. But for the female to
invite her desired male to a formal is kind
of silly unless the dance is Sub Deb," emphasized junior Kelly echrebecki.
An overwhelming 88 percent remarked
that requesting male company for a casual
event like a football game was nothing
more than a way to get acquainted. "I
don't see anything wrong with asking him
because I won't know if a guy likes me
unless I ask him out fir t," commented
sophomore Shannon McEleath.
To confront a gorgeous hunk, gaze into
his alluring eyes and pop the question was
wholly disapproved by 35 percent polled.
"The only time 1 would ever get enough
nerve to ask a guy out would be to my
house or something like that. Otherwise,
it's just too improper," stated sophomore
Michelle Kelly.
Out of the 45 females questioned, over
half of them admitted to switching around
the "you Tarzen-me Jane" roles at least
three times. Fifty-four percent of the guys
confirmed this female strategy as they had
been lured at lea t three times al o.

Along with her girlfriend ' "go-aheads"
and assured reports, the girl must have
been prepared to be doused with his rejection. Common refusals posed easy let
downs, whife friendsbl_ps were sustained.
Years ago a girl making the first move
was unheard of, but with the arrival of
ERA, it wa evident that thi movement
indeed influenced women's role in dating.

J s who was responsible for the
squeaks of magic markers, the thud of b dies and basketballs against wood and the
beat of "Girls with Guns'' throbbing
through the Commons? Of the 132 tudents surveyed, 36' percent stated they immediately boarded their buses, revved up
their cars or hit their sneakers to the pavement each day after chool. They cut out.
The other 64 percent chose to stick
around. Athletics was deemed "numero
uno" by 38 percen of those that were into
extra urricular activities.
As fbr time out with the in-ci:owd, 36
percent of tho e who tayed belonged to at
least one club. However, most occupied
themselve with two or more. Twenty
ranked Ski Club the most favorable, while
Latin Club trailed clo e behind with 14
members in the urvey.
Out-of- chool group captured the time
of 20 percent of the total surveyed. Gaining the mo t attention hospital volunteers
and church groups dedicated afternoons

and evenings of community service for 18
students. E plorers, 4-H and Lakeside
Players also tallied as favorite pastime status.
For those that needed an increasing
cash flow, part-time employment was first
priority. Eighty-five were working. Of
those stereotyped "employed' only 64 juniors and seniors held down a job. A surprising 21 were sophomores. Of course,
the local "grea e joints" like McDonald's,
Hardee's and Burger King proved to be
top employers. Eighteen of the 42 working
were hired by these "joints." The other 26
discovered Super Yalu, Lakeside Dry
Cleaning and The Body Shop.
After the afternoons, jocks, jobbers and
joiners returned to their roles of a student
squeezing in homework time.

Alter the 2:30 bell, juniors Dawn Boyd, Laura Ihlenfeld, Denise Johanowicz, Amy Wiersum, Julie Andrioli and Beth Lueck catch the late t scoop.

Photos, faces focus Deja views
Retracing Ferraro's address to AMC's
auto union, the football team's state playoff
and backyard basketball games, the Classic
photography staff meshed diverse personalities and talents in order to become productive. Reflections on darkroom mishaps and
classroom antics signalled a year of confusion
and frustration . Eying "photo" from a different angle, taking charge of 14 refreshed us,
Photo Editors Jeff Reiter and Ivan Ireland,
yet the darkroom marked bittersweet Deja
Vu again and again .
The initial task of starting from scratch,
whether negatives or prints, sparked the realization that we ourselves were not quite
ready. The three returning seniors, Dan
Becker, Kandy Makoveck and Rudy Waluch
lessened confusion as second year knowledge
pulled the '85 staff together. In the end, we as
Editors E-van and Jefe earned our rank as
'J" conferred with us about top-notch deci1ons.
Impromptu lesson plans and random demnstrations satisfied the new junior fledgings, though the "bird" always questioned
heir validity.
Becker's gross humor and editor fill-ins on
arkroom detail helped to relieve us when
rs. Jacoby "desired our presence for a little

chat." Becker, too, stacked up respect from
inexperienced staffers.
Makoveck's familiarity with procedure and
equipment was a plus for the whole staff. She
consistently produced quality photos.
Presiding as nutritionist and fitness fanatic, after a solid darkroom performance, Waluch exchanged photo study hours for the
Comp for College grade, sweats and body
building equipment.
Crossing town , Marge Freund paid off with
second semester talent. For example, she shot
the Spot and Super Sports photos in time for
the "big deadline." The rapid fix allowed the
escape of Jill Nelson's darkroom duties. In
between vacations and absences, her photographic originality shone through in her personal shots of the moon and dress-up dudes.
Always eager to crank the rewind knob, Julie
Wolf rambled in with her last minute credits
for an " A ."
Buzz and company, alias Sherry Krebs and
Lisa Liege!, triggered darkroom foul-ups, yet
sparked an outlet for laughter for the staff.
However, they learned so much.
Darkroom doldrums were driven away by
juicy gossip. Gina Caravetta's Key Club connection linked us to away conventions and
out-of-school activities.

Kris Derwae, through her quiet determination and innovation, focused on next year's
editor title.
Tina Schultz's cheerfulness and cut and
file kept us in good spirits and the darkroom
negatives in order.
Characteristic of late-but-done, Kevin
Sampica shuffled and completed his Tempest
and Classic photo tasks through fifth hour
lunches and after-school labs, even during the
summer.
Keir Powell, fighting photo critiques, opted for darkroom rolling and printing for escape. Rerouting efforts all the way from a
first quarter "D," Powell followed the road to
"A's" as Assistant Editor which signed in his
talent.
Exhibiting leadership from the onset of the
year, Fernando Paz was every staffer's choice
for photo editor because his work was right
the first time.
The writing staffs constant nagging of
"Did you shoot this?" or "is that printed?"
kept us rolling. Even though the Brad Munroe photo tallied three months over the due
date, the soccer playoff shots netted efficiency. Through the yearbook's photos themselves, Tremperites can reexperience as they
recall Deja Vu.

Classic occurrence of Deja Vu
J

A medley of all-nighters, deadlines that
ran right up to the line and some lackadaisical attitudes binded the network that truly
broadcasted refreshed ideas. Though creativity was oftentimes stifled by prospective parties, plays or dances, reflections added up to
form a forever link, Deja Vu.
Maintaining a not-so-scholastic attitude,
Academics editor Dave Gosch inherited the
gift of gab from his all girl recruitment.
Gosch was able to talk his way around the
missing F AC photo until the year's end .
Three different personalities characterized
the female sector of Academics. Laura
Karges, marked by her ever-present dedication that garnered an E-in-C title, surprised
all when she showed up at the first deadline in
a Billy Idol concert shirt.
Wendy Owen, too, ranked high on the totem pole as she was appointed E-in-C. Allnight deadlines surfaced boredom until zany
Owen blasted off on her caffeine fits, where
sugar-free Swiss Mocha Coffee was the only
thing that could curb the urge.
Starting every deadline with "where's the
oven?" senior staffer Rachel Rustia whetted
her appetite with pizza rolls before the big
day began. In the end, determination was
recognized as Rustia's output totaled four
Academics and one Groups spread.
Ever-so-efficient Classes editor Mike
Lindsay marked his capabilities when editors'
speculation lead to a four-page miscount
which got booted into Mini-Mag for extra
coverage. Lindsay's new wave design for the
section, however, lessoned urges to kill and
proved him to be quite a trooper.
The diversified Classes section put their
act together through all of the mishaps. Stacy
Emon, the senior staffer leader, helped to
guide the section to success. Her efficiency

shined through her ever-so-j:IOpular pout,
"but I've got so much to do!" '.
The dynamic duo, Scott Steirl and Pat Ohlen, plagued the office with their bouts at
terrorizing other staffers and th~ index. From
day one, Oblen had "brown-nose" painted all
over his face as he lit up with everything from
"you look nice today" to "let me get the door
for you," all for a better grade:
Stein, making believers out of all, protested, "I'm sorry" or "I have to go to work" as
excuses for no-shows at those 3 a.m. deadlines.
Racing between Mama J's ~nd work, Simone Sargent often topped off deadlines with
her Pizza Hut hat still adorning her head. An
A for effort is awarded to Sargent along with
section editor of Classes.
Alyssa Simpson, flying footloose from Japan two weeks into September, found the
Groups section waiting for her. Diving into
the job with rigorous zeal, Simpson played
off of OP ads with a peeled corner design.
Pushing Simpson through some of her
"mental blocks," Ann Colter kept everything
under control and transacted her way to Business Manager. Marching her way through the
first Groups layout, Colter keyed Black
Watch despite the foot-long fdent. Whipping out song titles faster than Wilk
left deadlines, Michelle Cairo never ceased to
amaze fellow staffers with her unending capabilities. Elected video queen for dancing
through the best videos on Mrs. Jacoby's picnic table, Cairo etched her creative urges
onto editing Academics.
Deadlines with Todd Smolinski meant
deadlines with Dianne Anderson; the "staff
relationship" constituted many of Anderson's
"spaz attacks." Traveling to the nearest
McDonald's at 11 :55 p.m., Anderson ordered

After a day of hitting the streets for ads, seniors Jeff Reiter and Todd Smolinski total their cash intake.

$30 worth of burgers and fries a mere 5 minutes before close. Anderson's constant assistance merited her the position of Groups editor.
Cleaning up the Sports section, Todd Smolinski's argyle socks and whiter than white
shoes symbolized his expertise at editing
copy. Smolinski proved to be a perfectionist
in the classroom and a ditch daredevil by
night, as his new screens spiced up seasons
premieres.
Adding a female touch to the life of Sports,
Julie Selsberg ranked high enough in everything from winter sports to tennis that the
final E-in-C position rewarded her ever-early
layouts and all-night efforts for Smolinski.
Late arrivals and neglected phone calls put
Processo Daulo on the scorn list, until an allnight session with the editors tallied his points
back up. Taking cross country photography
into his own hands, Daulo exhibited the responsibility needed to merit Sports editor.
On the other end of the rope, Dave Wilk
sauntered in and out of deadlines in hopes of
not being discovered by the editors' evil eyes.
Wilks' escape plan worked until dinner's fishy
odor lingered in the air; after staffers' persistent joking, Wilk's quick change surfaced the
realization that it was Polo, not Coho!
Finally, Student Life manned its own way
through deadlines with four staffers and a
part time editor. Acting as the leader of the
pack, senior staffer, Chris Benbow's "it's history" attitude contradicted his editorial capabilities as he stuck around for section deadlines at his home and the graduation layout.
"Tomfoolery" was ever-present as Jim
Hammelev tried to "get a beat" on his MiniMag layout. Deadlines were pushed aside as
Hammelev got a taste of weekends for himself before attempting the copy. Pulling
through in the end, Hammelev chalked up
the position of Student Life editor.
Esther Mariyani quietly breezed through
the hectic scene with determination to finish
up "the year in Classic" and pursue "do-rami" instead of deadlines and pages. Before
taking a breather, she and Owen tackled the
Puffer layout in one day.
Finally, donning a skirt and T-shirt, Tara
Puterbaugh proved to be a very individual
cut of the staff, especially when it came to
doing her layouts, right, Matt! Bobbing
through the year, Tara was a constant surprise, especially when she did the "Oklahoma!" layout by herself.
Diversity defined the staff of '85 as separate views added up memorabilia. Retracing
events and feelings that boasted '85, staffers
and editors united outlooks so that the Trojans could taste the experiences and be
touched by Deja Vu.

Deja Vu elicits double VISIOD
Snap-backs, letdowns and crack ups tipped
off the battle of three against one, which
finally weaned into a positive, quadrangular
combo plugging toward that common p. 284
endpoint. By railroading personality conflicts
during those all-nighters of 7 and 11 a.m., the
three Editors-in-Chief and adviser managed
to spice Deja Vu from four opposite angles,
only enhancing each other and the book.
From day one as we carted to Milwaukee
for Josten's Computer Seminar, I was faced
with the challenge of rating priorities and
shuffling conflicting time schedules. At first,
seventh hour merely meant I :30 p.m. to 2:30
p.m.; but then as deadlines and "must" mailing dates commanded hour after hour, Classic inevitably multiplied its importance. If
calling in sick, skipping family dinners night
after night and passing up Fridays with
friends did not etch commitment in my mind,
the mutual responsibility vowed to Jetta
Marquardt and Matt Jones deterred my
drifting thoughts and, at times, wandering
paths to Florida and Blood Drive.
Whipping out theme copy and layouts with
creativity and style, Jetta only increased my

278

Editor-In-Chief

respect for her and tightly bonded our friendship, which had almost been swept away in
mid-winter deadline turmoil. If camp served
as any indication of the year's success, we
probably would have never made it. Honest,
we over-slept. Our determination, however,
did peep through that week as we waited
three hours for our pizza that never came.
We spliced Classic tension with "fun candy,"
laugh attacks on 60th Street and J-Bird gripe
sessions. Combatting the "late ones" with Vivarin (or wait, was it No-Doz?), Jetta's humor and replies to my "I need a word for
... " pulled me through in a truly special
way.
With his mathematical wizardry popping
up everywhere from mini-mag to teasers,
Matt verified himself - "What a pistol!"
Laid-back "slink" extended his personality as
my big brother with his strong, yet sensitive
qualities. My wrestling partner, who I still
have yet to pin, will prove his friendship again
next year at UW-Madison. Watch out Witte
Hall! He is on the loose.
The compact wonder, Mrs. Jacoby, endured my temper and lip even through the

Daisy Mae scandal. With her endless hours of
energy, her gift of gab, the sugar-free Swiss
Mocha breaks and the resistance to her family's concern, she impressed me time after
time with her excellent writing ability. I think
I can safely assume: she is more than an
adviser, and I more than a student. She let me
mature and further my leadership abilities in
a subtle, yet effective manner. I owe her
apologies and thanks!
Mom, Dad and David always understood
when 21 staffers bombarded the kitchen table
and blasted JZQ until dawn. Deeming spurof-the-moment deadlines okay, Mom ]ended
her support and cleaned up after nights of
popcorn and pizza. Thanks!
When the summer of '84 opened with unfamiliar proof pages to correct, I could not
possibly imagine the amount of sacrifice and
frustration that E-in-C would entail. Through
reflections on it all, I express only small regrets because the '85 book in print and the
Editor-in-Chiefs literal experience of Deja
Vu is sure to refresh my future outlooks on
opportunity and commitment.

Discovery
Struggling through 10 a.m. deadlines,
classroom chaos and staffer demand, my responsible nature infiltrated my laid-back
norm and proved my own dedication to a
forever project, Deja Vu.
Reflecting on the first week of school,
where Mary and I set out to teach 21 rookies
the fundamentals of copy and layout design, I
realize how novice we ourselves were and how
essentially changed we are now.
Starting off the year with the same crazy
senior expectations for "the best year ever,"
Mary and I discovered, to our dismay, that
Mrs. J's house ranked foremost for Friday
night plans. Sometimes we let Classic get the
best of us, and our mutual harmony clashed
over character counts and style errors. Finally, as we counted down the days, that familiar, nagging sense of Deja Vu of Sophomore
English and "Old Time Rock-n-Roll" refreshed our perspective and put us in line for
future, forever friendship.
Slinking through uniquely designed minimag layouts, Matt proved his breathtaking
brillance. Wearing his "4.0" mask, Matt unveiled a very individual person as the progression of editors' confrontrations and allnighters brought out such one-liners as,
"stop, you're killing me," or "you're such a
pistol!"
Retracing the year's events, special moments reinforced the bond that existed
among Matt, Mary and me, and those moments will always beckon Deja Vu.
Reflections of Mrs. Jacoby's "constructive
criticism" sessions surfaced my "crabby" disposition many times, but through her persistence, J really refreshed my sense of identity.
Though some bad vibes arose between J-Bird
and me, I can still look back and see her
flapping her beak and laugh about our oftentimes nonsensical arguments. To Jacoby, I
present the MVP award, for she is the only
one who could possibly merit it.
A big thanks and a hug go to my parents
for the use of the house. Cleaning became
almost futile as more often than not, the living room and kitchen were invaded by 21 rug
rats. A thank you, too, goes to Mark Oechler
for listening to my ever-so-popular complaints and for sticking with me until the end.
Classic proved to be the most time consuming, but fulfilling project, as individuals
meshed together to form a unit of memories
that could only be called Deja Vu.

friends Kris Wavro, Christie Demming, Dianne Thompson and Mary Blake to cheer Hawaiian.

Retrospect
Soon after naively insisting that "I knew
exactly what I was getting into" when I accepted the position of Editor-in-Chief, I
found out just how deeply my committment
engulfed my life. I had not even come close to
imagining the tremendous task which lay
ahead, an undertaking that dictated both my
social and academic life from July to June.
The responsibility of leading a staff of 21
from day one to page 284 put me in a very
awkward position. Putting business before
pleasure, or even in front of friendships, was
very difficult for me; the last thing I wanted
to do was breathe down the necks of some
very good friends. I want to thank the staff
for leaving any grudges for my position in the
Classic office, as I tried to do the same.
Although at times I felt like I was fighting
everybody, I developed a very close relationship with my two fellow editors. Mary and
Jetta, you're a couple of pistols.
From camp in Minnesota, midnight horror
stories and love-life counseling to sharing a
bottle of Vivarin and a spot on "The Best of
the Class of '85," Mary Blake has become a
true friend whom I will always love and admire. Thanks for giving 100%.
Jetta Marquardt, too, has become very
close to me. Together we weathered proofs,
personal problems, the Christmas deadline
and staff rumors of romance. I'll never forget
about our "Budgetel'' joke, the tag team
wrestling match at Jacoby's or the countless
little rag sessions about everything and everyone under the sun.
My family deserves a thanks also, for putting up with 5 a.m. curfews, missed dinners
and oftentimes a houseful of staffers.
But my biggest thanks goes to Mrs. Jacoby, that lovable little woman with a big
mouth and an even bigger heart, no matter
how sick it might be. The E-in-C's have dubber her MVP, not just for mitro-valve prolapse, either. Thank you for those hundreds
of hours you sacrificed to help me with everything from theme copy to family problems.
Although the ultimate goal of the staff was
to produce another outstanding yearbook, I
feel more accomplishment in the things I've
learned and relationships I've experienced
than in successfully completing the book. For
me, the yearbook will serve as a constant
refresher of my own high school Deja Vu, as
it will for others, only stronger.

Spring's blue revives Deja Vu
Only when it was over did a person, a Trojan, a friend recognize that time is essential.
In coursing from sophomore to senior, moments, games, sock hops, Mac's and finally
Porky's whirled past as students touched .
Senior spring broke with an awareness, as
stark as Convocation's blue wave of graduates. If friends sealed other friends, if friendships worked, then time had been the essential factor, essential from sophomore to senior.
From squirrely sophomores roaming the
corridors searching for room 111 where they
would delve into the basics of the cardiovascular system and first aid to sophisticated
seniors taking charge of spirit weeks and Friday night dances, beginnings to endings
sparked changes. Later on May 17, Senior
Banquet's "Changes" typified the class of '85
as serious and mock awards and the slide
show filled teary-eyed faces with hints of yesteryear.

On May 24, rival puffers hoarded onto the
field with black streaked under eyes for the
event that distinguished the women from the
girls. Running a close bout, the juniors
pushed the seniors down to the 20-yard line
where "'86 Kicks" prematurely spelled VICTORY. Just as senior spirits began to dampen, however, out came running back Cindy
Dejno, and in a bit more than a single bound
found the senior end zone. Six points tallied
up the senior win. Wendy Hunkeler's safety
chalked up 2 more points, and realization hit
juniors for whom defeat overshadowed VICTORY.
Friendships broken during the fierce class
competition were soon mended at the Last
Fling dance. After powder puffing it, players
and fans touched down to the dance zone
where 99 tuned in with such smash singles as
"On the Dark Side" and "Easy Lover."
As the final days crept into the curricula,
due dates for British Writers papers and

Math Analysis assignments slipped by. Senioritis, like a plague, grew in epidemic proportions among not only seniors, but underclassmen as well. Pacifying the end of the
year itch were Rocky Rococo's and Puchi's,
the best investments for those noon hour
blues.
Spring break lent a hand to those tan-conscious few as Florida, Alabama and California bronzed the scenario. Those who did not
have the cash overflow, however, found tropic bliss at such hot spots as "The Tannery"
and "Easy Tan, Inc."
Sun-glow bodies splashed back in a wave of
Blue as spring renewal beckoned last minute
discoveries in the Commons and classrooms .
As endings surfaced, Ye Olde Madrigal
Feaste, "Oklahoma!" and donkey basketball
made Deja Vu the agent that pushed students
into beginnings once again .

Before the buzzer, cheerleader Candy Baumgarten and
trojanette Julie Wolf predict the final score.

BEGINNINGS. A step forward, and oftentimes backward, into life and destiny. The
first football game against South and the
dance that followed began the wind down
of those special moments that typified '85.
TIME. It filters through our whole existence,
yet we don 't feel it until the time is too
late, until the moment when Matt Jones
led the tassle-turning at graduation.
FRIENDSHIPS. They come and go in time,
they touch us , yet the impact doesn't hit
us until the friendships slip away. Until
Texas, Madison and West Point beckoned
graduates into reality.
REALIZATION. It's stark, it stares us in the
face, it tells us the truth about all our
mistakes, late Comp for College term papers, detentions and not quite "making
the grade" all surfaced realization.
FANTASY. It floats, as if suspended in time,
until discovery takes its place. Romantic
visions of strolls through pagodas at "An
Evening in the Orient" and the perfect
date at Gatsby's in Racine rekindled the
desire to discover.
DISCOVERY. It's real, it's exciting, it opens
the door to new pathways to take . Cleaning lockers of U2 concert ticket stubs and
getting rid of those Physics notebooks
packed with Newton's Laws and textbook
terminology sparked an awareness of past
and future .
ENDINGS. They come suddenly and too soon;
they make beginnings look so far away and
leave room for so many regrets. Like a
bullet, 1984' s "The l's Have It" turned
into 1985 's "Deja Vu," making us realize
how time had slipped away.
RENEWAL. An outlet for a friend to reach out
his hand and say, "let us reach our destinies together and we'll discover there."
Plans of who's taking the refrigerator and
who's taking the stereo to the college
dorm followed high school friendships
when one brought the leis and the other
brought the floral shirts to go Hawaiian.
DEJA VU. It mingles, it lurks, it peeks into the
past only to retrieve nostalgic thoughts of
"I've been here before." It surfaces
through friendships, discoveries and fantasies which promise destiny, but deliver
only penetrating thoughts out of Trojan
blue, penetrating thoughts of Deja Vu.
Breaking into the traditional sock hop routine, "Miss
Piggy" refreshes Friday night Commons congregators at
the Blood Drive dance on February 23.

Lip synching to "Born in the USA" on January 25,
juniors Jim Hammelev and Mark Gohlke reflect youths'
crazy daze at the Key Club sock hop.
