Here begins the day's jowney ... This is a schedule similar to that of which each student encounters before classes begin. They travel on to various challenges in the classes that they have chosen. Although Academics play a large role in the life of every student, Clubs, Sports, Happenings and special friendships also add to a student's four years at West. The path through Niles West begins as a freshman, unsure of plans, and ends as a senior, well-prepared for the future.

After three-hundred minutes of listening to lectures, note-taking, and tests, the last bell provides an escape out of the classroom atmosphere. For many students, after school means going home and watching t.v., meeting with friends, doing homework or sleeping. The day has been a long one and at home they can enjoy what is left of the afternoon. Work continues, when other students go directly to their jobs. Here students can use some of their skills learned at West and make some money. Various clubs, sports, and organizations keep many students after school ends. Here students meet other students with similar interests. Many after school hours are put in by faculty members to assist with a club or coach a team. These activities teach students beyond what classrooms can teach them. Here they learn to work with others to accomplish their. goals. While some would think that after school the building would be empty, it was not. There were many who stayed for the after school action. Everyone had to make choices and "map out" their after school priorities. - Below After school many students choose to take the bus and go directly home.

A custodian . attempts to reach the second floor the easy way. Numerous people came to the deserted high school with large machines and big plans, and took control. Sound like a bad script from an old "B" movie? Actually, this reference concerns the many workers who oversaw the renovations at Niles West. Electricians, general contractors, sheet metal workers, bricklayers, painters, window and heating specialists, and special security worked around the clock during the summer to complete the construction before the 1984-85 school year commenced. A week after school ended, Goebelt Construction began tearing down the walls. The pupose of this construction, decreasing the size and number of the windows of the school, was to conserve money and energy for heating. Construction workers labored all day, often working on the weekends to combat bad weather and other complications. The finishing touches weren't completed until the day before school started. According to junior Lisa Sandlow, "The hallways and classrooms were in complete chaos. No one believed that the construction would be finished by the time school began." : 20 Construction �./ .. • Many scaffolds were used to reach second and third floor windows. What a mess it was! Construction 21 �Seniors Go Hawaiian ••••••••••••••••• Sending the Senior Class to Hawaii would be virtually impossible, but bringing Hawaii right to our classrooms and hallways was not. The seniors proved to the whole school that summer was still in their systems in September. Dressed in grass skirts, colorful flowered shirts, bright shorts and plastic leis, they let West "Go Hawaiian". Not only was the day fun, but it showed spirit and togetherness in the Senior Class. There were many different kinds of Hawaiians to be found around the school: cowboys Hawaiians, red and white faced Hawaiians, porn pon Hawaiians, cheerleader Hawaiians, conservative Hawaiians, and wild-outgoing Hawaiians. No matter what kind of Hawaiian there was, everyone knew he or she was a senior. When the school day of Friday, September 6th, ended, we may have felt our last warm breeze from Hawaii. (Until spring break, of course!) "Aloha" with a smile says senior Debbie Cohen, as she dressed up for the senior spirit day. 22 Hawaiian Day Emptying her locker, senior Lis;i"Coconato searches through the final pile of books.

Hawaiian Day 23 �After High •••••••••••, School The future. It has something different in store for each student. Some will join the Armed Forces, others will continue their education in college. Whatever their final decision, "College Night" is held to help students make the best possible choice. College Night began September 19 with an opening ceremony during which two military helicopters landed on Niles West's front lawn and the Navy band performed in the courtyard. At 7:30 p.m . College Night officially began. Representatives from 220 colleges were ready to answer questions, to distribute pamphlets discussing both the social and the academic aspects of their college, and to supply cards with which students could request applications and additional information. For the first time, students with a military career in mind had a chance to talk with spokesmen from the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines. From outward appearances, this was the most successful College Night ever held at Niles West. According to the police, approximately six thousand students and parents attended. Students also seemed to agree with this concensus. Junior Sunny Park commented, "It gave me .a chance to find out about new colleges and receive information about them." Marla Wilner, also a junior, stated, "It allowed me to become familiar with the schools and their requirements. I thought it helped a great deal." Organizing the signs used to identify colleges at College' Night is junior Sandy Huber. Without her assistance and that of other dedicated students, Coll~e Night would not have been a success. 24 College N ight �Hanging up college flags is Mr. Len Winans. As parents and students walk through the cafeteria, they are able to see the fla~s bearing names of schools. Interested parents and students examine some of the many colleges located in the contest gym. Other schools were represented in various areas of the building. The representative from the University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee explains the advantages of the school to junior Donna Eriksson and her mother. Although juniors have yet another year to decide which college they will attend, the night was very informative. College Night 25 �Showing their happiness are sophomores Holly Sobel, Stevhanie Howard, and Devra Resnick. They added their own Hawaiian touch to the mixer. This couple share a slow dance together. There were many styles of dancing used at the mixer. 26 Freshmen-Sophomore Mixer Sophomore Dana Shapiro shows all of her friends that dancing is what she does best.

Both freshmen and sophomores participated in the dancing that night. Mixin' and matchin' took place at the Freshmen-Sophomore Mixer on September 21. The action began at 7:30 p.m. in the Ni-We-Hi cafeteria and courtyard. The mixer provided freshmen and sophomores the opportunity to meet new people, and enjoy an evening of dancing. Music by disc jockey Don Davis played all night long. "Davis got everyone to dance," said freshman Robert Keller. "It was amazing to see how many people showed up and had a great time," Keller added. Action was delayed for a few minutes when a fire alarm went off, but dancing resumed immediately as strong as ever. Hawaiian decorations created by the Sophomore Cabinet spruced up the cafeteria for the night. "A lot of us wore Hawaiian attire to go with the theme and create spirit," said sophomore Stevhanie Howard. Ice cream sundaes were devoured throughout the night of dancing and fun. "I met a lot of new people at the mixer, and everyone danced together showing the spirit and unity of Niles West," said freshman Susan Silverman. Record attendance proved the mixer to be popular, and a highlight of the underclassmen's calendar. After finishing the last dance, freshman Robyn Horowitz calls home to be picked up. Although some people went home, others went to the football game which was in progress at Basrak Field.

Coaches and family had faith in Bart, just as he did in himself. After years of training, an elbow operation, and hard determination, Bart Conner brought home the gold. On Wednesday, October 10, with television cameras and newsmen in place, Bart came to talk to cheering girls and guys. The band played Olympic songs to welcome him. The "Star Spangled Banner" was sung by Mrs. Owens, the Niles West chorus instructor. As Bart entered the auditorium there were loud chants of "U.S.A.!" In his speech he told the audience about his great struggles and hardships. "You can't just assume something is going to happen, you've got to make it happen," stated Conner. After Bart Conner talked, he asked for questions from the audience. Many people wanted to speak but only a few were selected. The assembly included speeches by John Burkel and Bart's Olympic coach. They mentioned that Conner will be starring in episodes of "Love Boat," "Different Strokes," and "Highway to Heaven." To keep all entertained, Conner did a routine flip-flop which was a "crowdpleaser". Immediately following the assembly Conner met with selected people who had purchased his t-shirts. After that, he had a press conference with Dr. Ring and many others. When asked what his feelings were about returning to West, Bart answered, "It's so great to be back home!:' Coach) 15hn Burkel, one of the speakers at the assembly)lnd Conner's high school coach, says a few things about Bart.

Leading the parade were Mike Lochner and Anna Karalis, Homecoming King and Queen, followed by their respective courts and the three winners of the float contest. The floats were judged on n)Hftness, creativity, and theme. This year there was a new addition to the parade, a double decker bus in which the senior Midnight Riders rode.

I love soccer, and I know this is going to be the start of something big to come," stated Jenny Lund.

This was the time when parents learned about their child's progress and saw some of the school classes and activities in progress. Parents walked, ran and got lost going through their child's daily schedule (shortened of course). School seemed so easy to parents when they were at home, but the minute they walked through the doors, they acted just like freshmen on the first day of school. Other parents who had been to Open House before took on the role of the "SURE SENIOR". These parentNi We Hi experts made it to all of their child's classes on time. Other parents lost in the hallways arrived to classes tardy after getting instructions from the cheerleaders who were the "guides for the evening". Some parents ended up very lost and did not make it to class at all. "Open House was a success," according to Publications Teacher Jerome Orr, "I had all of my classes packed with interested and caring parents." Although the school and hallways may have been a little different, parents discovered that school, teachers and classes never change. Health teacher George Galla talks to an interested par~ntABonpie Ta~elman about the health course. Parents were given the opportuni'i'y to as'k queshons m each of their child's classes. Leaders' gym members practice some wrestling holds at Open House. Many other activities were performed for ~rfn ts to view. 42 Open House �Coach Campbell and juniors Rocky Lee, Marsha Telengater, and Borpit Intawiwat represent cross country and track team~ at Open House.

Halloween spirit was apparent throughout the student body on this day of pumpkins, witches, goblins and ghosts. Originality and creativity went hand-in-hand as both students and teachers dressed according to this goulish day. " I had a lot of fun dressing up as a flasher and I had a even better time flashing people," stated senior Bob Kirchens. Along with many other seniors, he helped to spread the spirit of Halloween.

Halloween continued after school and into the night, as most people grabbed their shaving cream cans and went " bombing". Of course, trick-or-treating was still effective if you had the right costume. All remembered, that the Great Pumpkin was waiting with the other pumpkins in the great pumpkin patch. He was waiting to be taken home and carved for decoration. All dressed up and no where to go. Fooling us all is senior Harry Anderson. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

Halloween 45 �Banners and signs hang on the stage curtain to inform everyone who Steve Givot is. He is in favor of a Libertarian society. ••••••••••••••••, Political Views On Monday, October 29, Steve Givot, Libertarian candidate for U.S. senator from Illinois, came to speak at the Niles West auditorium. Mr. Givot outlined his party's views, including its main stance on less government involvement in personal life. He also stressed the importance of alternative political parties, and said he felt his party was a needed alternative to the other political parties. Appearing with Mr. Givot was Jimmy "JJ " Walker, star of the T.V. show "GOOD TIMES". Jimmy, who was warmly received, gave his own corresponding views about the Libertarians, also stressing the importance of alternative political parties. Mr. Lorenz, the director of social studies and fine arts, helped get in touch with Steve Givot, and enthusiastic about having him speak. However, he was disappointed that during an election year more politicians weren't available. "It is very educational to see the aspects of politics when politicians speak, and more education is needed to get more people to vote. Having speakers here is very important because students rarely are able to have discussions in class regarding current events," explained Mr. Lorenz. Mr. Lorenz added that the school had made offers to most major political candidates, both national and local, to come speak. Mr. McMahon, English teacher and sponsor of the Current Events Club who sponsored the event, thought it was advantageous for students to see and question politicians whenever possible, and had hoped to have the Democratic and Republican candidates along with the Libertarians. Mr. McMahon noted that while only 200 to 300 people were expected, approximately 700 attended. This was an encouraging sign to the Current Events Club to sponsor more political events in the future. Almost all of the students who attended appreciated Mr. Givot coming to speak. Sophomore Dale Sherman said, "Steve Givot made a lot of sense to me. He came across firmly with his ideas. I agree with his view that government should stay out of I people's personal lives. Personally, I'd like to see more politi- Candidate for the U.S. Senate, Steve Givot tell~ about his philosophy of govern· cians speak at Niles West. I really got a lot out of the open ment. After he finishes, Givot opens the floor to questions from interested stu· ,' forum." Not all students, however, concurred with Mr. Givot's ~n~. / views. "Although I don't agree with many of his ideas," said sophomore Tom Abelson, "I enjoyed being able to hear what he had to say, and also to see someone campaigning." 46 Li beratarian Speaker �Passing out pamphlets about the Great American Smokeout are freshman Gary Kaufman and sophomores Rachel Oliker and Suzanne Davis. They receive cigarettes from students and faculty who stop smoking for the day and hopefully the future. Kicking The Habit """""""""""""""""' "Smoking is very glamorous." This poster is just one of the many around the school. Fumar, fumer, and rauchen all mean the same thing in three different languages; to smoke. Many factors can drive a person to smoke. When kids are young, they may see parents smoking, therefore assuming that it is all right for them to try. Another reason is when a person tries to imitate an idol or a more "worldly" person that smokes. The most influencing factor of smoking is peer pressure. Kids that start smoking in their teens often carry the habit into their adulthood. Once a person has entered a practice that is detrimental to his health, it is very hard to kick the habit. Students and faculty joined the nation-wide effort to kick the habit on Thursday, November 15. This meant that for one whole day, all smoking was to cease among smokers who chose to participate. The Great American Smokeout brought in the idea, "take a day off . .. " Not smoking for one day did not necessarily guarantee that a person would stop smoking forever. Quitting takes patience and willpower. Students and faculty also helped by "adopting smokers." Adoption meant they would help their friends quit. Remember: Life is sweet, smoking stinks. Laurie Adams '86 To inform the students about the dangerous effects of smoking is the purpose of these pamphlets. Many schools nation-wide helped participate in .the smoke-out. Smoke Out 47 �New theater owner Rob Alpern explains to janitor Howard Malitz his reasons for changing the theater into a parking lot. Being the bad guy isn' t always easy. Actors Steer In Right Directi on ••••••••••••••••, The air was electric, as the audience waited for the curtain to rise signifying the opening of "No Parking on the Stage Floor." "This was the best Pow Wow in years, from the nostalgic opening number 'the Charleston' to the show stopper 'Celebration'," said senior Jackie Sirajullan. "No Parking on the Stage Floor" was about a man Adam Randall, who inherited a theater that was not doing well. Mr. Randall decided to tear the theater down and build a multistory parking lot, against the wishes of others who worked for the theater. Pleasant surprises were added to the stage with seniors Rob Alpern playing Adam Randall and Howard Malitz playing the janitor. Both seniors had their first stage experiences with this show. Another senior Melissa Lewin played the part of Alice, the zany lady at the ticket booth. The show featured an evolution of music throughout the century. From the 20's there were flappers and from the 60's there were flower children. Musical numbers from the show included: "I Wanna Be Loved by You" sung by sophomore Rebecca Kolber, "Minnie the Moocher" sung by junior Paul Bouboutsis and the heart warming melody, "Send in the Clowns" rendered by senior Julie Moltz. A Special guest performance in the show was the "Original Thoughts", a school band. Work paid off for the show's directors seniors Stefanie Akwa and Andy Lawler. With so talented a cast, the stage floor also became a dance floor. Steve Blonder and "his girls" act O one of the memories in the old theater.

Friday Night Bash A Sillash •6'6'6''76:•'76'6''7tr6''76'6'6'a Do you ever have problems deciding where to go to on a Friday night? Is the Riviera too hard to get to? Do you find it hard to get into singles' bars? Are Broadway musicals out of your price range? Student Union found the perfect solution to all of these dilemas, The First Friday Night Bash. The bash, a first for Niles West, provided an entertaining time for all who . were able to attend. However, only 350 stude!1ts were lucky enough to join in the festivities due to lack of space in the cafeteria. The reduced number did not inhibit students from buying tickets, as shown when all 350 tickets were sold out in less than two days. A definite record for the books! "Dance Experience" provided the music for this event. The disc jockey played an even mix of music, ranging from the music of the 60's and "Animal House" to the music of today. Refreshments were served, allowing students to "cool off" before heading back to the dance floor. The evening culminated with a raffle of gift certificates from Lou Malnati's, Baskin Robbins, Dino's, Bones, and some chocolate records. Button numbers were called off, and the lucky winner received prizes. "The First Friday Night Bash was a great success," stated senior Nikki Rich adding, " I was glad to be one of the lucky 350 that got to attend." The enthusiasm shown by the students prompted Student Union to organize another bash. Student Union has definitely provided a cure for the "Friday Night Blues." Trying to start a new dance is junior Joe Lochner. He is leading his friends on top of senior Jack Dahm's shoulders. .

Tis' the season to be jolly, fa la la la la la la la la. The holidays brought cheer to school and the community. As early December arrived, plans began for this festive time. Senior Class Cabinet traveled to the Hull House in Chicago, to share the holidays with needy children. Like elves, seniors brought refreshments and presents to the party they planned for the kids. Pin the nose on Rudolph, Duck Duck Goose, Musical Chairs and a Christmas story made the children smile. A big-brother, big-sister relationship formed as the celebration went on and the seniors and children became newfound friends. As Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman were sung, a special harmony was seen and heard. The holiday season is a time to share with others, and the Cabinet through the party, made the children's Christmas a brighter one. Concert in the cafeteria described the scene before homeroom on Friday, December 21. This last day of school before winter break carried the holiday mood. A group of staff members performed holiday carols for the students and also at the faculty holiday party given by Principal Dr. Don Ring and his wife, Sonya. Shari Owens, the new choral director, was responsible for putting together the choir that consisted of members such as; Dr. Don Ring - principal, Bill Handzel - A.V.E., David Lee - social worker, Barbara Handler - counselor and Len Winans - counselor. Along with the music side of the holidays, members of the band marched through the halls with their instruments and played holiday songs. The sound throughout the school was one of joy and excitement for the two weeks that were about to begin. For· some the weeks would include holiday parties, sleeping late, going skiing or perhaps to a warmer climate to get the " savage tan".

Jim Puff shows his special know-how as he portrays Chuck Barris of the Gong Show. Going Going Gonged ••••••••••••••••• After a long five-year rest, the Gong Show returned and with spectacular results. Over 400 students, parents, and teachers came out in sub-zero temperatures to see the hidden talent. And talent they did see. Unfortunately the theater department was unable to get a hold of Chuck Beris for the occassion, however, they were able to get the next best thing James Puff, head of security, as master of ceremonies. Along with James Puff were the three judges: Donald Ring, principal, Dr. Roger Stein, Spanish teacher, and Sheri Owen s, vocal director. The judges based their scores on originality, stage presence, and audience appreciation. If there were none of these qualities they were gonged! There was a great variety of acts, from cheerleaders jumping around, to sophomores having pillow fights. Among the acts that were not gonged were the three winning acts. The first place act was the Bag Ladies, a group of four girls dressed in bags from head to knees dancing. The "ladies" were juniors Andrea Poet, Ingrid Helgeson, Judy DeAcetis, and sophomore Kathy Campbell. The second place winners were the Summer Daffodils bringing some warmth to the stage with their rendition of Ba-her ran. This was sung by seniors Moses Nang and back-ups by Angelo Costas, Ho Youl Chang, Ken Wexler, and juniors Mark Poolos, and Al Matan. Arthur Tiersky got the crowd going with his own hit Will it Rain or Will it Snow? He received third place. Judge Donald Ring commented that "The big boys in tu-tus was probably the best act, but I was confused if the message of Muskrat Love was the theme for this skit as seniors John Noyola and Julie Moltz the finale was truth or beauty.

Perfecting choreography is necessary for a successful show. . ''Joseph'' Reaches Anlazing Heigh ts ~················ The Theater Department performed one of its best shows ever. The musical was Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. The show recalls the biblical story of Joseph, Jacob's son. Joseph is endowed with a special power to interpret dreams. This power takes Joseph right up next to the King; The Pharoh. Junior Paul Bouboustis played Joseph and senior Andy Lawler was the Pharoh. The role of the Narrator, who recounts the whole story to the audience, was split three ways by seniors Nikki Rich, Julie Moltz, and Kathy Feingold. The role of Potiphar was played by senior Colin Lawler and senior Steffi Akwa portrayed his wife, Mrs. Potiphar. Lots of hard work went into the show. Rehearsals began even before Christmas Break. The crew and costumers worked just as hard as the cast. The set was designed by Lee Goldberg and Cynthia Philbin. Rita Stewart was a helping hand in preparing Joseph's "amazing technicolor dreamcoat. " There were two matinees instead of the usual one. There was one for senior citizens and one for junior high students. The show opened Thursday evening at 8:15 p.m., March 21st and ran through March 23rd. The show was directed by the theater teacher Robert Johnson, with sophomore Rebecca Kolber assisting him. The vocals were done by Sheri Owens, the new Choral Director, and the choreography was done by alumna Gloria Camilli. The cast and crew worked hard to sell ads for the program for a very special reason. This production received a very prestigious invitation - to perform at the International Theater Conference in June at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. To perform there is the " ultimate honor" in high school theater. Freshman Dawn Szabo concluded, "Joseph has gone very well. All the people involved are hard workers and the fini shed project should be spectacular." joseph/ M_usical 59 �Taking a quick nap is junior Matt Mita. Many students find it hard to keep an attention span when studying. Knocked out from finals' studies, senior Don Gelfond takes a break - sometimes the finals' p1JS5ure can be just too much. / 60 Finals �Finally finding a quiet place to study, juniors Lynn Sonkin and Lisa Vick begin to review. Passing U.S. History is very important to juniors. Semester Tester ·················~ Making good use of our school's computer system is junior Alayna Decker. There are many programs which may become very useful when studying for finals. Given some extra time for reviewing, senior Dana Rugendorf prepares for her Biology final. Every eighteen weeks, twice a year, eight times in high school, students are faced with finals. For many students, finals brought loads of studying, late nighters, trips to the library, lots of pop or coffee and nervousness. Perhaps the preparation for finals may seem a bit overboard, but when one-fourth of your semester grade is decided in an hour, it can be quite strenuous. First semester finals began Tuesday, January 29 and lasted until Thursday, January 31. Each final lasted one hour with passing periods in between. Finals were a new experience for freshmen. The Class of '88 took their first set of finals without previous experience and set out to ask all of the upperclassmen about what they should study for. For some students, on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday they found multiple choice, essay, written or oral finals. Usually they knew what to expect, but even if they did, the tension of walking into a final was amazing. No talking or movement occurred in a final's room, for students feared they would lose their concentration. After nights and nights of hard work, the students definitely deserved a break. Therefore, Friday was a day off between semesters. On this day students, slept and had fun to catch up on after the long hours they put in studying. Many ways were found to study for exams. In order to prepare for exams Junior Alana Dubin "I just look things over." Junior Dan Herman "I don't study." "I start studying ahead of time, so I don't Junior Jodi Nock have to do it all in one night." "I actually sit down and study my notes Senior Sugra Yaybulak and study guides." Senior Bob Gaughrin "I study with a friend." "I study with smart kids from my Senior Lou Mitchell classes."

Croix "I study very hard." Sophomore Dino Santorineos "I study an hour before each exam." Sophomore Jim Torrez No matter what the study technique, students either hit the books or don't study at all. There are many techniques, some successful and some not so successful. Finals 61 �No More Work It's A Celebration '""""""""""""""""" ,.,No More Work", "Party Train" and "Celebration", were three tunes that set the mood for this BASH. After long hours of studying and three days of tests, students were in need of a way to celebrate the end of finals. Not only did this event recognize the conclusion of finals, it also was a party for the second semester seniors. Finals were over and the three day weekend was here, the contest gym's lights were dimmed and its floor was ready for dancing. Thursday night played host to the AFTER-FINALS BASH that drew 500 students for dancing, refreshments and a lot of fun. Student Union sponsored the dance with records spun by Skokie disc jockey Carey Weiman. For a mere $2.00, students could partake in the fun. After three days the bash was sold out. Bash committee members were junior Jenni Holt, seniors Frank Epstein and Tony Sherman and sophomore Devra Resnick. The After-Finals Bash was a success according . to junior Debbie Freed who said, "It was a place for everyone to celebrate the end of finals and the beginning of a great weekend." Contests were in number with a 50's dance contest to songs like "Barbara Ann" and also everyone got down for the twist contest. Some students even pretended to be on the islands, by participating in a hulahoop contest. Students found out that they could boogie at the bash bash, boogie at the bash!

After-Finals Bash 63 �Skywalkers II Rule The Court •••••••••••••••• 6 "It's fun because I'm good," stated junior Phil Rodgers, member of the Seamen Team during the N-Club Volleyball Tournament held in the Contest and North-South Gyms. The tournament was held on Wednesday, February 20. The volleyball tournament was planned and coordinated by the N-Club. As Senior Tony Hehn said, "It's the best thing the N-Club has done for the school." Twelve teams competed at the tournament. These teams were formed individually by students with three to seven players on a team. The teams' names were thought up by the creative members on the team. Some were:· Silver Spoons, Slim Trim and Jordan, Party Animals, Purple Pegasus, Knards, Dead Heads, Toe Gobblers, Cheerleaders, All the President's Men, Crafty Beaver Hunters, Magnificent Seven, Ham's Porkchops, Hawaiian Swans, The Seamen, The Gyno's and Skywalkers 2. "There is no beating us," Hawaiian Swan's Lou Mitchell said, "If we can't take first in the Gong Show, we are sure gonna do it here." The team's played fifteen point games, or if after fifteen minutes neither team had fifteen points, the team with the higher score was the winner. The tournament was played with double elimination. "It's a war out there, the girls are just too tough." stated senior Ron Fortman. At the end of the night the championship game was held between the two remaining teams. These teams were the Crafty Beaver Hunters and the Skywalkers II. After a very tough game the Skywalkers II took first place. Leading his team to victory is senior Carl Czernik. He shows that basketball players can play a mean game of volleyball also. Teamwork is what make Skywalkers II the champions: Seniors Jack Dahm, Carlos Fornaris, and Lou Atsaves struggle to return the serve. Ready to "spike back" senior Lou Atsaves jumps a few inches higher than his opponent. What a dunk it would have made!

" Korol added, "That was memorable, but so was being re-hired." Korol found changes at Niles over the years, as "When I started discipline, attendance and dress were all very strict and controlled. (If a boy was wearing a belt, he was sent home for the day.) Korol added, " I see the So's a return to rules, discipline and attendance tempered with some lessons that were learned from previous years."

"I have enjoyed West while l have been here," Groth said adding, "I like what I am doing and the people l work with." As for her future plans, Groth said, "I have nothing planned at the moment, but I do plan on keeping busy." Groth added that she will miss the students, coworkers and her 17-year job.

After retirement Hinz plans to rest, travel and maybe work a little. - That cheerful voice on the switchboard every school day is Rose Blum. 68 Retirees Blum, Groth, Hinz and Natker Need a pencil?

Among the supplies, text books. and workbooks stands Gertrude Natker, better known as the "Bookstore Lady". After 16 years at Niles Township, Natker retires in June. Natker began the challenging job in 1969 at Niles East. One of the biggest changes over the yeari Natker said was in the students. 'The students i!i:e much quieter now. When I s tarted wor,k they were still demonstrating against the draft and various other things." Good morning, Niles West! That familiar cheery voice heard when one calls school is of Rose Blum. As switchboard operator, Blum transfers calls to the many areas of the school. Whether it is a parent calling a teacher, or companies calling administrators, Mrs. Blum's friendly voice sends calls directly to their of- · fices. After 15 years of operating the switchboard, Blum retires in June. Over the years there have been changes in the switchboard operation and location. Blum commented, " It used to be a little hectic with two girls running the switchboard for four buildings." After retiring, Blum plans to just do things that she has not had time for. One of Blum's most rewarding experiences was training students in the business education department on the switchboard. : �Although the new blinds have not been installed on these second and third floor windows, the windows added a "modern" appearance to the school. • Besides blinds and windows, the outside bushes and trees were changed.

No more syruppy or watery juices, now it was time for cans of favorite soft drinks to take over the cafeteria. Upon arrival, students jumped at the chance to "POP" 45¢ into the new machines and receive a can of Pepsi. No longer were trips to 7 - Eleven or sneaking into the teacher's lounge necessary- Now when students wanted a can of pop they had their "own machines" to buy it from, just a few steps out of the cafeteria. As with any change, at first there were a few problems. " It is kind of an experiment to see if kids can keep the building clean and enjoy the pop," said Principal Dr. Don Ring. Information availability is an important need of students. Besides the "Daily Bulletin, P.A., and Poster" came a "flashy sign in the cafeteria." All day long messages ran from announcements of a turnabout dance to the "CHESS TEAM WINS" and a new addition, 'THE DAILY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!" Every day students' an teachers' names flashed across the board with messages of Happy Birthday. Now students had another means of communication. "GET the MESSAGE"????? Blinded by the light?

Senior Tony Hehn sets up for the block. Teain Spirit Benefits Season Double session practices, chalk talks, practice with the sophomores, five corners with "no guts, no glory," including a little sweat and pain, and there was the Varsity Football Team. At 2:25, school was out and it was time for practice. Everybody was ready by 2:45 for either a chalk talk or a pre-practice stretching and agility warmup, followed by a half hour or so of specialties (kicking game, punting, punt return) and an hour of team offense and defense practice. By then every player was pretty tired, but still ready to go and still sucking in the pain, while thinking positive thoughts. After all that, the players would go to their position coaches. Coach Richardson dealt with the first offense and the first defense, Coach Gralewski and Coach Shane trained the defense, Coach Spagnoli lined up the of~ 72 Varsity Football fensive line and defensive line, and Coach Kruiser worked with the tight ends and the split ends. Team pride is a special need for a football team and the varsity team definitely had it. They were proud to work for and be a part of Niles West. Discipline was requi'red, both individual and team. The varsity team had every square inch of the discipline needed for a successful season. If individual discipline was molded with· every player, then there was team discipline, because football cannot be won by every man for himself. It took support and talent from the eleven players on the field and off it. Talent, Niles West had that also. It took talent for a victory, along with discipline, pride, concentration, goal work and a positive attitude. Niles West was a winner as a team and as individuals. Niles West had spirit, the spirit to become a successful team, to become number .one: Niles West had love, love for the gridiron game and hard work. Niles West had determination, a determination to play the best play every play, until the end of the fourth quarter. They gave 110% on the field. Niles West had good football players, just as good in ·academics as on the field. People looked up to the football players, like tri-captains Joe Klancnick, Carlos Fornaris and Eugene Pullano.

Has Protnising Outlook "The Junior Varsity team is basically next year's Varsity team, since most of the guys on the Junior Varsity team will start on Varsity next year, except for a couple of sophomores," said head coach Ron Gralewski. The Junior Varsity had very few substitute players; the team had one extra fullback, two extra tight ends and split ends with a couple of linemen. The force of the Junior Varsity team came from players like quarterback Tom Merkel, linemen Louis Mitchell and Joey Barber along with other members of the team. "The Junior Varsity team is made for the coaches to take a look at the future Varsity prospects," said assistant coach Ron Shane. It looks like a fairly promising 1985-86 Varsity football season. The Junior Varsity had several assets: good attitude, intensity, power, talent, pride, courage, good form, and the love for the game of football. Sophotnores Have Tough Practices Practicing with the hard-hitting Varsity team and new assistant coach, Bill Porter, were just two aspects new to the Sophomore Football team. There were new plays to learn, and an exciting football season in store. The season was tough, yet the team managed to have fun. The sophomores learned some of the fancy plays that the Varsity used, for some of them will play on the Varsity team next year. "The sophomore year in football is probably where most kids improve greatly," said Head Coach Bob Murphy, while Coach Mel Schmidt nodded in agreement. The team worked hard and was taken seriously by both their fans and opponents. The engine was ignited by such players as quarterback Todd Kassel, fullbacks Paul Kasprak and Curtis Takiguchi, along with linemen Marc Johnson, Tony Kim and Li Wang. 74 J.V./Sophomore Football Walking onto the field are members of the JV Football team.

This is because many people think that freshmen cannot play the hard-nosed, tackling game of football. This has been proven false by the likes of Coaches Bauer, Odlivak, Erbe and Kettleborough. They are good coaches, disciplined yet gentle and caring as any father would be to his son. That's the kind of relationship that has developed between the coaches and the freshmen players. "These kids are real easy to work with even though they are new to the game. Today's young people should be given a chance to play football once in their lifetime," remarked Head Coach Bauer.

Freshman And Sophomore Football 75 �Kickers Illustrate Experience Soccer is one of the largest growing sports in the United States and the Western World . Throughout Europe soccer is known as "football". This makes much more sense considering that, with the exception of the goalie, the main part of the body that comes in contact with the ball is the feet. The quality of the varsity team's footwork was clearly illustrated by their numerous victories. "Speed, grace, and hard work are what it takes to make a strong soccer team, and that's what we've got," explained co-captain Jim Griletz. This season instead of one captain, they had two· co-captains, seniors Dan Gabel and Jim Griletz. "Above everything else, I think I'll remember this season as the year of the goalies. We had two first-rate goalies. I only wish they could have both started all the games," stated coach Joe Brennan. Win or lose, with hard work and improvement, the varsity team had something to be proud of.

And Sophotnore Statnina Accounts For Success The Junior Varsity Soccer Team's excellent stamina and running ability accounted for much of its success on the field. "We all feel that this season turned out the way it did because of long practices and working together as much as a team can," commented member John Hahn. Even though their record could be improved, the players agreed that they worked hard and had a great time. The team maintaned its looseness throughout the whole season. J.V. player Dean Marinakis stated, "Everyone had a chance to play, and next year we're hoping to have a successful season." The pinnacle of the season came against Glenbrook North which was one of the toughest teams Niles West played. The game was played under very harsh weather conditions, but the team maintained its composure and gave Glenbrook North a great battle. "These players will hopefully be on the Varsity team next year. I just know they're going to have a great varsity season," concluded Coach Dave Hart. In a foot race for the ball, Steve Frankel sprints in order to take possession of the ball.

Kris Hainke and Kolza Sarov strive hard to gain control of the ball and lead Niles West to a victory. Some people may call it sacrilegious, but the strenuous workouts of the Freshman A soccer team got everything out of them plus more than they put into it. Soccer practice consisted of skilled drills and four to five miles of running. Major emphasis was placed on handling the ball. This included learning how to dribble, volley-kick, instep-kick and trapping. "Some teams had bigger and better players, but they did not play together as a team. What we had here was a team that worked as one," stated Coach Peter Zorn. Underway and ready to take their team to the top were the Freshman B team. "Members of the Frosh B squad showed a great willingness to work and improve," said coach Jim Sweeney adding, "Several of them moved up to the A team as a result of this improvement."

The varsity team, inspired by high goals, started off with a boom. Victories against Highland Park and Glenbrook North carried them on a roll of enthusiasm throughout the season. The team was led by varsity team captain Karen Wilczewski who felt that the team had improved greatly from previous years. Head coach Ms. Sfikas described what she called a "strong year" and said that the girls were hard working and diligent. There were five returning seniors, Karen Wilczewski, Carol Billisits, Sherry Dougal, Regina Shemroske, and Deanne Zych. Teamwork and individual skills were what the junior varsity team was all about. They trained hard all season. JV coach Mr. Carr said he looks forward to next year when the girls will be playing varsity volleyball. Some outstanding players were Linda Steiner, Madeline Partipilo and Dominique Partipilo. The freshmen volleyball team mastered the basic skills of the game. "Their future looks very promising and improvements occurred at every practice," said Coach Oshay. Some hopefuls to look for in the coming years are Joy Grossberg and Jeannine Domonica.

JV/ Frosh Valleyball 81 �Dedica tion Triulllphs In The End Despite their meager turnout of athletes, the Boys Cross Country team had a relatively successful season. Runners such as Rocky Lee and Borpit Intawiwat often found themselves leading the varsity team to victory. The team as a whole had a rough season with many injuries. Much of this can be attributed to the rigorous training schedule of Coach Pat Savage, as he often had his runners train with college runners from Oak ton. How- 82 Boys Cross Country ever, the stamina and endurance finally paid off when Rocky Lee came in first place at the Milwaukee Apple Invitational with Borpit finishing right behind him. "The practices were a pain at first," confides runner Rocky, "but after a few races, we knew that it was all worth it." Although the sophomore team was also rather small, they too had a rewarding season. They are currently trying to rebuild their team and hope for a win- ning season next year. The freshmen have had an outstanding season, thanks to Steve Rosen, Matt Achett, Eric Watson, Robert Liu, Henry Chen, and Bryan Mittelman. These runners, along with the rest of the freshman team placed first in the Invite. Freshman coach Ron Campbell stated. "The freshmen team progressed for beginners. By the end of training, they competed well and had potential to be a good team." �SCOREBOARD NW NW NW NW NW NW NW NW Intensity is shown on the faces of cross country runners, moments before the big race. 27 95 95 95 21 19 40 45 Niles North Deerfield New T rier Evanston Waukegan East Waukegan West Highland Park Glenbrook South 29 25 40 86 34 36 21 18 WON-5 LOST-3 Front row: S.

To Success y Hard work and dedication were two main factors that helped the girls swimming season. Although workouts were tough, the Girls' Swim Team stuck together and made it through a long season. "Spirit and dedication are the main keys to a good swimming season, and our team definitely had both," said junior swimmer Lori Burns. Head Coach of the team, Nick Whelan, was the man in charge who prepared his team for upcoming meets with rival schools. Most of the swimmers agreed that practices were tough, but the key to success was hours and hours of Varsity diver Diane Rubenstein displays perfect strenuous swimming. Even after swim- ming constantly, morale was always at a high level. Senior swimmer and captain, Diana Santillan, did her best to keep the team's spirit up when they needed it most. "Besides trying to keep up morale, it was also my job to get my teammates as psyched as I possibly could for each meet that we had," said Santillan. During the season the Girls' Swim Team did an excellent job of setting goals and accomplishing them. 9ther swimmers Sonya Tolksdorf, Wendy Martin, and Misty 'Sienkoski accomplished their goals by keeping up the team spirit to help drive their team toward victory. form as she does a double.

However it was a necessary action that the golf team needed to take. Golf member David Cohen said, "Even though it's a pain to lug our equipment all the way to Wilmette every day, the practice really improves our game." Golf calls for a lot of skill and coordination. A steady arm and accurate judging distance is required. If you're ever on the golf course and you hear someone yell 'fore' cover your head and move out of the way. "Fore' is a golf term that means the ball just hit is heading right in your direction. The guys on the team practiced more than two hours at the course every day. The final record for the team was not that good, but according to most players next year there should be some major improvements because everyone is planning on practicing a lot during the summer. There are seven spots on the varsity line-up. The spots were determined by Coaches George Galla and Dennis Hoeppner.

It all depends on form, concentration, and of course, a woman's soft touch.

"We didn' t just have a successful season, but also a lot of fun," stated sophomore varsity bowler Sharon Smith. Wow, a strike! You may think, oh no for baseball, but it was all right for the bowlers. At first, there were not too many strikes and the team lacked confidence because they had lost three varsity bowlers last year. They thought they were going to get rolled over and knocked down, but soon the bowlers had strike after strike which led them to a great season.

The cast of characters was led by seniors Louis Atsaves, Jack Dahm, Marc Goldstein, Jay Chepulis, Ron Fortman, Larry Rivkin, Carl Czernik, Mike Ferdman, and Carlos Fornaris. Determination and confidence were two qualities that made the " team concept". "We might not have the most incredible talent on our team, but we definitely compensate for that disadvantage with team hustle and determination," commented senior Mike Ferdman. After shooting more than 1000 points in his high school career, 45 points in a game against Deerfield, senior guard Louis Atsaves still puts the team as number one on his list.

The fighting Indians were led by Coach Emil Capitani who was very proud of the team. "I was really impressed with the way the team worked hard all season , and made the most of their ability," said Capitani adding, "For me personally, it was a very enjoyable season working with the boys." Senior Ron Fortman summed up the team when he said, "We may have lacked height, but we worked twice as hard to make up for it." Junior Varsity Basketball was coached by Dave Hart. The J .V. team was like the varsity team according to most players, although some of the team members disagreed. Center Rob Acheatel said, "There is a lot of difference between the two teams, because many guys don't get to dress up for varsity games."

The Junior Varsity Coach Klebba was excited at the beginning of the season because the team had won conference last year and he hoped to make it a tradition. However, after losing all their experienced players except for Jill Colen, the team had trouble pulling it off at first, but later got into the swing of things. Although it was not their best season, it helped the team develop the skills they will need to make it a better season next year. Coach Klebba commented that they have shown great improvement since freshman year. . Attempting to out maneuver her opponents is sophomore Jill Kreher.

JV/ Frosh Girls Basketball 101 �Wrestlers Sweat It Out And Hit The Bricks "Sweating it out" was a statement that applied literally to the varsity wrestlers. Wrestlers who had to meet the standard weight for their class tried everything, from sweating gallons upon gallons of body water to starving and wearing their entire wardrobes to bed. Staying away from food was often difficult. Members would support each other by going to a movie together, or doing just about anything else to stay away from food. Spitting was one of their favorite ways to shed that extra pound. "You would be surprised how much you can lose by spitting for a couple of hours," commented senior Steve Brabec. 102 Varsity Wrestling "Get up, you sleepy head," was often heard by the wrestlers on a Saturday morning. The first meet of the season started at 10:00 a.m ., but wrestlers were already there training, preparing, and getting psyched for the first match. Conquering the opponent match after match led the varsity wrestlers to a victory at their first meet of the season against New Trier. " I've been wrestling since I was in junior high, and this is my third year so far on the Wrestling Team. I've learned about work, friendship, and understanding. I have accomplished much in the past few years that will help me in the upcoming years of my life," ~ tated junior Barry Albach. In addition to the varsity's win, the junior varsity team also defeated New Trier. " I think we got off to a great start. We know we're going to make it all the way," stated Coach Hartoonian. Wrestling is not just a sport, but also a way of life for these athletes. "We expect to win and have a fun time doing it. We want more than being conference and regional champs. Our goal is to make it to the state tournament," concluded junior Craig Brairec. · ,~ �Controlling his opponent with a power half is junior Barry A lbach.

Being overcome by the opponent is an intimidating thought and a disasterous outcome. But with physical and mental abilities the Freshmen Wrestling Team overcame the odds, with wins against the highly ranked Deerfield Warriors and New Trier Trevians. As the spectators go wild chanting "Indians;" in a low tone, the determined wrestlers struggle for the pin. The points are scored, throwing the team into a decisive victory. The JV2 wrestling team had many moments of victory due to the tremendous amount of skill and practice. Practice for the team was every day after school during the season. Through the leadership of undefeated wrestlers like Pat Cattern and Andy Rudin, they went on beating schools like Waukegan West. During the off-season, the dedicated wrestlers kept in shape by working out in the weight room. Besides strength and endurance, strategy is a major part of wrestling. When a wrestler is about to be pinned, he has to make a split second decision on how he is going to get out of the situation, preferably in a reversal. Preparing to pin his opponent by getting hand control is senior wrestler Billy Kornit. Kornit has no problem defeating the wrestler from Deerfield.

The Girls' Track team planned on winning. They had reason to believe so, because many hours were put in before the season started. Running through the halls, working out in the hydro-fitness room, using track facilities at Niles East, and even running outside in January were just a few of the things the girls did to prepare themselves. "We hope to come in the top half of our conference. We are in a tough conference and have a young team that needs development and are eager to learn," commented Coach Jean Armour. The girls had set a lot of goals for the 110 Girls Track On The Right Track year. Some were to learn to work together like a family, discipline themselves, and to master their skills. At the beginning of the season there were many enthusias.tic runners like Chris Sammuel, "Since this is my first year on track, I feel very optimistic about the season ahead. The people on track are friendly and the coaches are very supportive." Freshman runner Laura Oroni, who is on varsity said, " I love being part of the team. It was great when we won our first meet against Maine South." Co-captain Diana Hellestrae stated, "We have a lot of talent and if we work together, we can achieve o·u r goals.

Soccer Team Kicks Into Action Kicking, passing, blocking, dribbling, and a great deal of running are just a few skills needed for a successful soccer team. The Girls Soccer team was constantly drilled in these skills. The proof of how successful these tough workouts were was revealed when they entered on to the field. At the end of last season the team finished with a 10-2-2 record. The girls only lost to the number one and number two teams in the state "We only lost one senior last year, so this year should be dynamite. With all our starters returning including four seniors that have been playing Varsity Soccer since freshman year, we ought to be very tough this season." said Senior Captain Diana Santillan. 112 Girls Soccer .. . This was the first time there was a freshmen team. " I think it is a good idea for there to be freshmen team. It prepares them for Varsity and they will get the experience they need to compete on a high school level. It also allows all the other mem hers of the JV to play that didn't get a chance last year because of the large group of freshmen that joined." said junior Georgia Sotiropoulos. Varsity captain Diana Santillan's goals were to qualify for the finals in the state tournament. "We have a very good chance of making it because we were just two games away last year," exp!ained Santillan.

I plan to do that." This was only one of the things that new Coach Ron Campbell of the Boys Track Team said referring to the season. "We have to take advantage of what we have," Campbell concluded. The team consisted of about seven shotputters, five discus throwers, two high-jumpers, four long jumpers, four triple jumpers, along with sprinters, hurdlers and distance runners. All were coached by Assistant-Coach Pat Savage, who had formerly served as Head Coach. Coach Campbell was in the mood for changes in the coaching system. One major change was the addition of Coach Terese Kimura to help the long jumpers. He also arranged to have the Boys and Girls Track teams practice together on Tues~ays and Thursdays. After clearing the last hurdle, senior John Hennessy is ready to head for the finish line. Hennessy led the pack of hurdlers and left his competition in the dust. 114 Boys Track "This team is a fairly young team, consisting of mostly freshmen, with a few lettermen returning," commented Assistant-Coach Savage. Junior Rocky Lee agreed adding, "I think we have a fine team with young, multi-talented track stars, mixed with experienced long distance runners, which should make us a well-balanced underdog." This was a small team compared to the opponents teams and past West teams. They strived ·to be a winning team and were successful. Besides their team goals they also achieved many personal goals, such as record times, jumps and throws. The team traveled to far-away lands such as Rolling Meadows, Sterling, Morton East, University High, Luther South and Robeson.

Boys Track 115 �Optimisn And Experience - Key To Winning Season 116 Strike one! Strike two! Strike three! You're out! The baseball team did not do much of that in their season. In fact, as they got their bats cracking and their arms throwing, the players were very optimistic about their season. The team had good reasons to be excited. One contributing factor to their enthusiasm was the excellent season by the team last year and in the summer. Through great pitching, excellent hitting and outstanding fielding, the team placed first in their division and traveled downstate to battle with the best during the summer. Unfortunately, after an upsetting loss in the last inning 2-1 to Hershey, the state champions, they placed fourth in the state. Senior pitcher Joe Klancik stated, "We had some heartbreaking losses last year, but this year we plan to get back at Hershey." Another reason for their optimism was the outstanding group of players. These boys contributed to the team's success last summer. Such players were Behind all the catching gear, starting catcher senior Ron Clark can get very hot.

All of whom were willing to put in 100% to have a winning team. Joe Klancik also added, "To be a winning team you must contribute to the team as a team player, and not as an individual." Overall, the outlook on the upcoming season was good, with great players and the spirit from the previous summer, the team plans to go far. Coach George Galla stated, "We have a good team, but the other teams have gotten better also. The two toughest t11ams to beat in our conference should 'be Wauke.gan East and Waukegan West." Nevertheless, the sgj.rlt of the team was up.

Softball Not Just Hit And _ Run Softball originated in Chicago in the year 1887. It was developed by a man named George W. Hancock. It was first invented as an indoor baseball game, but is now played competitive ly in over thirty countries. Of course it has made its way to West! The softball team consisted of fourteen players. They practiced everyday after school for two hours, and had games two to three times a week. A game of softball is not just "hit and run." Softball can be hard on the knees and hard on the hands. Sliding to "steal" second base can certainly promote sore and scraped knees. A softball is not as "soft" as the name Successfully catching a ground ball is Junior Mariann Janessa.

Dawn Fendt was the Varsity Softball coach. This was Fendt's second year of coaching softball. The team's closeness greatly added to its success. Considering that the team had mostly new members, they showed enough experience to play a "tough" game. The biggest rival team they played was New Trier. They are a tough team and play a hard game.

Members of the American Field Service (AFS) have traveled to these parts of the world and many more over the years. AFS'ers had numerous fundraisers with the hope of earning enough money to give some substantial aid to the adventurers whose applications were accepted. In addition to these fundraisers, the group planned field trips and socials with international themes. One such example was the International Weekend, held on October 25-28. Twelve foreign exchange students, representing the countries of Italy, Australia, Norway, and Ghana were treated to an ice-cream social, a Halloween costume party, and a tour around downtown Chicago, and also attended classes at West for one day. "Worldwide friendships," appreciation of other cultures," and "growth through experience" were mottos stressed at every gathering. With approximately seventy- · seven members in the club, it's no wonder that sophomore Esra Aninmis had fun "meeting new people." "I joined the program due to my interests in foreign communications and 'exchange'," she said. As sponsor Ms. Carr stated, "When they (students abroad) return and tell me that they learned a lot about another country, that's great! When they tell me that they learned so much about themselves, that's even better! It's what AFS is all about."

Having fundraisers , planning mixers, and promoting school spirit all contributed to making the Sophomore Cabinet an exciting group. Under the leadership of President, Andy Sprogis and Vice-President, Mike Phillips participation in the cabinet was enjoyable. An important fundraiser that the cabinet sponsored was the 'Le Pop" sucker sale. The funds raised through the successful sale helped contribute money for their prom. Helping incoming freshmen , adjust to the high school scene, the sophomores planned the Freshman-Sophomore Mixer. The Mixer allowed both sophomores and freshmen to meet new peo:ple and make friends.

This is because the members realJzed that th ey had to work together in order to get things done. " Introduction To Politics "And if I'm elected . .. ," was heard throughout freshman homerooms. Candidates running for an office in Freshman Cabinet had a chance to explain their views about what they could do for the Freshman Class over the P.A. system. Each candidate had one minute to talk, and the opportunity to make a video tape to be shown in the cafeteria on election day. Buttons and posters were found in abundance among the freshmen, stating their choices. "Campaigning is the most exciting part of an election," exclaimed candidate Jinjer Brody. " It's important for students to learn and comprehend the fundementals of an election. It helps us later in life to pick the best candidate by understa nding the issues involved," stated Karla Krone.

On these days, the Cabinet took trips to the Julie S. Molloy Center. At the center they visited with the handicapped kids. On certain days, some of the children played basketball. The center had a team made up of boys and girls who practiced and played against other teams. Cabinet members helped them with their practice. Not only was it beneficial for the kids, but members of the cabinet learned a lot from their interaction with the handicapped children. Patience and understanding were needed to make the visit successful. All juniors involved gained a great learning experience. The Cabinet also planned a Second Battle of the Bands. As usual, the class planned the Prom. With the greater turnout at Cabinet meetings, they had many accomplishments and gained class unity.

Cabinet Alive • In '85 The seniors first project of the year was the Senior Cabinet Homecoming float, which was part of the Homecoming Parade. Additionally, they held a Christmas party at at the Hull House Day Care Center and organized their major and most successful activity, the selling of Senior Class T-shirts. They were also in charge of planning the most important event of their high school career, graduation. When asked whether they had accomplished their goals for the year, President Larry Rivkin explained, "We had an excellent year in Senior Class Cabinet. We had more members in the group than ever before. As an organization, we brought joy to others through community service and also did whatever small part we could in making this a memorable year for the Class of '85." Dribbling techniques are taught by Junior Class Cabinet Members Robby Munic and Ellen Kim. The Junior Class Cabinet went to teach basketball at the Molloy Center every Monday and Thursday.

Whether the Indians were winning or losing, the Cheerleaders stood by their side every step of the way. Rain, sleet, snow and low temperatures did not put a damper on their spirit. Spirit was at a high, and the Cheerleaders were partly' responsible for arousing this feeling of unity. All three squads spent numerous hours practicing and the results showed on the football field and basketball court. Proving to be more than just spirited, were the Vasity Cheerleaders. The girls put in many vigorous hours of practice over the summer in order to prepare for the competitions that they participated in at U.S.C.A. (United States Cheerleading Association) Camp at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb. At camp they excelled and won 2nd place in the competition, received the " most spirited" award, four 2nd place ribbons and an elgibility to compete in Nationals - the largest cheerleading competition in the nation. "We worked very hard, but we had a lot of fun too. We were a very close squad and that contributed to our really loving what we do," re' marked Captain Anna Karalis. Before the Varsity Cheerleaders performed, the Sophomore Cheerleaders promoted spirit at the 6:00 p.m. games. Camp provided the squad with many new cheers, mount ideas, and dance routines. The sophomores at· tended UCA Camp. Time was short !:or the Freshman Cheerleaders to get their act together and get on the football field. With only a week to organize themselves after tryouts in September, cheers and chants had to be taught and learned in a matter of a few short practices before the first game. It was hard to generate a lot of spirit at 9:30 a.m. with such small crowds, but the freshman put their best foot forward and always cheered their loudest. Freshmen Cheerleaders gained experience, a new style of cheering and many new friends through being on the squad. The group's future looks bright, with Varsity prospects in just two years. Tryouts, camps, and practices are the parts of cheerleading the fans never see, but they do see and hear the final results: cheers, chants, mounts, enthusiasm, and most of all SPIRIT!

The Spirit Squad helped the cheerleaders in lifts, mounts, and pyramids. "It is important to get students involved and to encourage the entire student body to help support their team," stated Captain Harry Anderson. Spirit Squad members included seniors Harry Anderson, Dale Lasky, Judd Brody, and Mark Sobczak. The junior on the squad was Jon Lisco. "Niles West has come a long way in school spirit, we only help t.o pupport and encourage it and hope it will continue throughout the. years," stated Harry Anderson. Spirit...Squad sponsors included Barbara Chasow and Athletio-Director Gerald Turry. "Our goal is to increase support for our Indian team and to keep it alive throughout '85," concluded Anderson. �Performing in unison, the senior cheerleaders work to boost the crowd's . enthusiasm during a home football game. It takes more than courage to perform a mount such as this. Varsity cheerleaders raise the spirit of the crowd at an all-school assembly. "Go Big Red ... " sophomores Lynda Loiacono, Sharon Lapp, and Erin Karahalios cheer the sophomore basketball team on to a victory. At the O utdoor Homecoming Assembly, junior Alana Dubin keeps the cheerleader's standard rule in mind by showing a big smile and perfect form. Cheerleaders 133 �Fast Talk The Debate Team could best be described as an activity that teaches one to think. Debating helps improve speaking and research skills. "Debate Team is great to be in, because you get to meet new people, you're able to find out more about yourself, and you're able to learn a lot more about the world we live in," said junior Jerry Kang, president of the team. The team was sponsored and coached by both Sandra Berkowitz and James Batts. The Debate Team officers who also helped the team strive toward victory were junior Helen Shapiro, Vice-president, and junior Judy Mann, secretary and treasurer. The team had a busy schedule during the year, including such tournaments as the 1984 Wamplem Invitational Debate Classic, which was held November 2-3, and the IHSA Sectionals in Debate, held February 22-23. The thirty debaters accomplished their goals, by increasing participation and determination by all participants. Both participants and staff also agreed that greater knowledge and acceptance of debate was a key factor in their strive toward victory throughout the year. �A discussion is held between Dr. Ring and the members of the Executive Coordinating Council about the cafeteria situati on.

Other German goodies were also to be found at the annual German Club Christmas party. The party was open to all students, and gave members a chance to show off their German cooking. Another important event was the student exchange. "We hope to have a more organized student exchange program between Germany and Niles West. We want to send ten students to Germany next summer," stated Cindy Lee. Officers were President Linda Meixner, Vice-President Aleli Estrada, Secretary Cindy Lee, and Treasurer Grace Kwon. Selling suckers and buttons subsidized the exchange program. "Responsibility seemed to be a big factor this year, and that's what made the German Club what it is today.

The activi ties ranged from their various fundrai sers to planning their Greek dinner. Interested students took time out from their busy 5chedules to attend the monthly meetings held in the evening. Many of the club members exhibited enthusiasm as they were eager to particpate in the various club-sponsored even ts. Many of the fundraisers held aided needy organizations. Club member senior Linda Kontos stated, "We really had a good time participating in these events and our time and efforts were worthwhile." Some of the activities held included a dinner at a Greek restaurant, bake-sales, and the annual bike-a-thon. They also participated in an International Night that was held at Niles North by performing a Greek dance. The Hellenic Club provided cultural enrichment to all of its members.

"Shalon", "Echad, shitem, sholosh ... ", " I have a little drcidel ... " , "Shecket, b'vakashah!" Hebrew phrases and Jewish lyrics mixed together in a confused mass of singing, laughing, and shouting at each meeting of the Israeli Club. Students shared their memories and knowledge of the Jewish culture. Together the members were able to acquire a genial feeling towards their peers, as a special bond formed by learning about the past struggle that unified these otherwise separate and unique individuals. A Chanukah party was shared with the Hebrew classes, complete with spinning dreidel s, glittering gelt, and a shiny menorah. The Israeli Club extended the food selection to falafel, matzoh-ball soup, and hamentaschen, when it had an Israeli food cook-in. The members enjoyed the preparation as much as the resulting feast. The group also took a field trip to the Spertus College Museum, finding that by sharing impressions and emotions, one is presented with a new perspective of history. Even the typical candy-sale fundraiser was given a special touch when part of the profits was donated to an Israeli charity. Led by spon sor Alex Miron, President Anna Minkov, Co-Vice-Presidents Yana Margolin and Michael Jacobs, Secretary Melinda Ring. and Treasurer Marla Zissman, the group was able to participate in many new experiences.

With the dedicated help of Mrs. Herminia Lopez, the sponsor, a lot was accomplished even though the students met only twice a month for this exciting activity. Don' t worry if you don' t know any Spanish, there are no language requirements. The club is open to all students interested in having a good time and learning about another language.

Those noi ses became music with the talent and practice of approximately twentyfive musically-inclined students. The Jazz Band rehearsed two or three times a week to perfect its harmonious composition s. The band performed for the community and at various school functions, such as the senior assembly. In addition, these skillful players provided the music for the Orchesis dance show, and accompanied the troupe on tour. The spon sor Bill Koch sta ted, "Jazz Band is an excellent opportuni ty for students to become well-rounded musicians." The validity of this statement could be seen upon examination of th e wide range of music that the band played, with pieces extending from 'Tm in the Mood," by Glen Miller, to " Roxanne," by the Police. Senior saxophone player Nick Markos s ummed up his feelings when he commented, "Jazz Band allows us to let loose, express ourselves, and just have a great time!" �MOVIN' WHILE GROOVIN' f,177 Band-Front row: Bnan Kellmen, Daniel Kellman, Al Rosenblum, M.nk s,hwartz, Matt Klapman, Chns Markos, Todd Su<herman Second row: S,1m Yokhenbau, Jason Boehm , Steve Blonder, Evelina St1p1sic, Che1vl Emsson, C1nd1 Moss, Adam Miller, Marc Cooper Back row: Paul Hel,"ng, Lisa Larson, Josh Myers, Reed Davis, Jon Viner, David Rubin Whether at a football game, a parade, or a school assem bly, the M archi ng Band wa s always working hard.

Koch said, " I was pl eased with the overall con tribu tio n of the members of the Marching Band . The band, Color Guard, and Pom-Pon Girls worked well together, wh ich added to a very exciti ng show." After the football season came to a close, the Marching Band divided into two separate ensembles, the Concert Band and the Symphonic Band. These musicians perform at numerous functions throughout the rem ainder of the year, such as the H oliday Festival, the Bos ton Pops Dinner and Concert, and the May Festival. " It's a great feel ing when you' re in a fin e marchi~g band, symphonic band, or percussion ensemble," . stated sophomore Todd Sucherman. " We' re all of that There's a lot of pride." Band members also spent much of their time together rehearsin g and performing in shows. T hey traveled through Michigan, Toron to, Niagara Fal ls, and Ohio on tour. Though a lot of hard work wa s requ ired for this trip, there was plenty of enj oyment experienced by all.

That is what the Midnight Riders do the night before a football game. · Midnight Riders are a group of girls who get together at the beginning of the week to make posters and signs and to gather toilet paper to prepare for Thursda.Y night. Grouping off into three or four different cars, girls head for different footall players' houses and th;tt's where the fun really begins. Different talents are exercised by the way toilet paper is thrown, rolled, tossed,'and pitched. The art of toilet paper has spread from the bathroom to the trees, bushes, shrubs, gates, flower beds and front lawns. The object is to drape toilet paper "everywhere"! Senior Brain Gawin, feels that the wQrk that goes into the pregame helps to rouse pep and enthusiasm for the game held the next day.

Color Guard Marches To The Beat You no longer have to play an instrument to be in the Marching Band. You can be one of fifteen to twenty students who walks in the band wing with flags in hand, forming the Niles West Color Guard. During football season people started watching the colorful flags spinning through the field at halftime. The Color Guard also performed at basketball games and parades, with rifles in addition to flags. Due to the growing size of the club, senior Beth McCaw and junior Joanna Kohl were appointed as officers. They helped with flag work, along with Jane Pablich who was hired to help organize the club at practices and games. The Color Guard performs at all band performances and accompanies the band on tour.

It is our hope that they will have a deeper understanding of the complexity of even seemingly simple issues," commented co-sponsor Jack Lorenz when expressing his sentiments on the Seminars for Scholars program. Due to the overwhelming responses made by both seniors and juniors eager to take part in the program, only seniors were chosen to participate. The requirements to enter were not based on academic achievement but rather, on the intellectual curiosity to engage in an atmosphere that encouraged debate and discussion among the students and the speaker. The topics covered ranged from Criminal Justice Systems and Prison Reform to Sanctuaries for Central American Refugees. The speakers of the programs were leaders in their field of study. They presented the ?tudents with an exciting presentation followed by an opportunity for the students to voice their own opinions. �Deadlines #10719 Front row: Melinda Ring, Heather Ross, Linda Kontos, Jenny Smith, Anna Karalis, Julie Keller, Nikki Rich, Michelle Burdeen and Diane Santillan.

There are no pictures! None of the coaches have scores. The typewriter does not work. O.K., now it is going to be an all-nighter .... This jibberjabber, screaming and constant noise was heard in the Spectrum room, 103, before, during and after deadlines. The constant threats of fall delivery and late production days shattered the room, hanging over the editors and staff. It seemed as though it would never come together, but through hard work and mapped-out deadlines, Spectrum '85 became a reality. When the yearbook was finally finished, remnants of five deadlines remained: torn up copy sheets, unused pictures, leftover layouts, croppers (broken, of course) and one sticker with that magic production number on it, #10719. This number lived on, implanted in the Spectrum '84-'85 staff's minds forever, a memory of wild 'n' crazy times, mapped out from day one. �Leading The Spirit Pack Seniors for School Spirit, one of the newest organizations at Niles West, has caught on fire with the senior class. " Founding Fathers" Larry Rivkin, Gus Atsaves, and Brad Kolar have organized activities such as hat day and traditional Hawaiian dress days. Seldom has school spirit been organized so that all seniors could participate. By word of mouth, "fun" days were announced. The next day was filled with crazy grass skirts or hats with wings like the FTD Florist! At the Homecoming Parade, S.F.5.5. even represented themselves with a Homecoming float. The group led the parade with painted faces and victory chants. Hopefully, the tradition of organized spirit for seniors will be continued. It gives all a chance to feel like they are an active part of their own se nior class. Furthermore, S.F.5.5. helps keep the seniors on top of the school, not just age wise, but especially spirit wise!

One such forum was " Rap with Ring", where students could talk to Dr. Don Ring - Principal and voice their opinions and concerns.

Student Union did just that, allowing students and faculty to enjoy the benefits of this enthusiastic group. From the beginning, it was all work, yet still fun. Chairmen were selected, and planning for Homecoming 84 began. As always, it was rush-rush and craziness for the months before Homecoming week, but the group pulled it off with style. As the name say>, . . UNION, the members worked together as one for the benefit of the entire school. The Homecoming week was aboard the Niles West Victory Ship, creating an atmosphere of sailing. Events occurred every day, including many new activities such as flipper races and a Bon Voyage celebration. "[ was impressed by the amount of people who worked to make Homecoming so successful. There were many chairmen and members who spent long hours and deserve a lot of credit for making Homecoming so special and spectacular," said Student Union President Julie Keller. Another new edition to Union events was the "Bash". The first of these bashes was the First Friday Night Bash after a basketball game, wrestling meet and swimming meet on December 7th. The bash was an informal social where students could boogie with their friends to the music of a Dance Experience Disc Jockey. Buttons sold out in less than two sets of lunch mods on Monday and Tuesday. The tickets were limited to 350 and after one day, 204 were gone. The new craze of the bash was continued with other bashes during the year. As new members poured in with ideas, new life was brought through student activities to the school. Above- After putting in hours of hard work planning homecoming events, Student Union members show their enthusiasm by riding atop their Homecoming truck. The parade allows Union members a chance to let their spirit soar. Music, dancing, refreshments and absolute fun were all part of the Bash on Friday, December 7.

A great deal of time and effort takes place behind the scenes. The Technical Service Club worked hard setting up microphones, lights, and other necessary prepatations for school assemblies and student play productions. Students came after school and on Saturdays to build, paint, and put the finishing touches on the set for a show. "Although it can be tiring and time consuming, all that work can be rewarding when you finish building something," commented sophomore Cheryl·Lanski."The Technical Service Club provides an opportunity for those who don't want to perform or didn't get in a show, to participate in theater," stated junior Andy Mills. The club also helped set up and run rentals. Rentals are when an outside group rents out the school auditorium. Cli.ib sponsor, Ms. Philibin worked closely with each member, giving directions and showing the technique used when building something for a show. Technical Service Club 157 ���Hot Off The Press Wh~le many students were learning, eating or studying during mods 20-22, the West Word staff was busy planning and preparing for the publication of their next issue and meeting deadlines. Walking by Room 103 between 12:15 and 1:00, many different sounds could be heard. "Jon ... I have late copy." " Make sure you get it into Son's" " Does anybody have a blue pencil?" "Where are my pictures?" " Did you hear the news?" " I need a headline book." "Who gets Papa's ad?" "Monday's copy due." "Captions help ... " "Samson." "Mr. Orr, we need your help." "Get the copy in on time." " Paste up." Long hours, cutting, pasting and more were involved in producing the West Word. The editors and reporters used their " noses for news," for they knew it could make or break the headlines.

You set your alarm clock to go off at 6:00. Usually it does not go off, so at 7:15 your dad comes in wakes you up. You get up, put some clothes on, and ask . your dad to drive you to school. By the· time you get to your locker, you have already missed homeroom and part of your first class. While putting your books away, you realize that you have forgotte_~ your math assignment that counts for half of your grade. You then go to the telephone to call your mom, when you realize that you forgot your wallet at home. While heading back to your locker you wonder what else could possibly go wrong, when a security guard stops you and asks to see your l.D. Reaching into your pocket, you remember that you forgot your wallet at home. You tell the security guard that you forgot it at home, but he does not believe a word you say. Two hours later, the secretary lets you go inside to see the dean. You tell the dean the same story you tried to tell the security guard. The dean lets you go because it was your first offense. Finally something has gone your way. While walking out the door, the dean stops you and says that you were marked absent, and it was unexcused. The dean also says that you have to serve two Saturdays because you missed all of your classes. You are going to flunk math, have a record, and have to serve two Saturdays just because you did not want to wake up at 6:00 a.m. Monday morning. a Dep. k 5-athy '87 Freshmen 193 �"High Schoolitis" Hits Freshmen After eight years, they finally made it to high school. It was a long wait, but it was worth it. Moving on was not as easy as it seemed. There was always that disease that traveled among incoming freshmen. Some called it the "High School Jitters," but it was more commonly referred to as "High Schoolitis." High school was very different from junior high. Moving from a big eighth grader to a little "freshie" was an uncomfortable change. There was a lot more homework and, in some classes, more pressure. One of the major changes was moving from a tiny Junior High to Niles West, with over 2,000 people. There were hundr~~s of_new people to meet. Freshman Cindy Gesklin remembered, "I came from a small school so it was both scary and. exciting moving into West with so many people." In 'the beginning, freshmen felt like they would never make it, but after a couple of weeks, they felt like they had been here all of their lives and suddenly, they were mysteriously cured of that awful disease, " High Schoolitis."

Well, it's a long story. You like long stories? It all started when I missed the bus and had to walk to school. I was strolling along Oakton Street when I noticed a little boy wandering into the middle of the morning traffic. With my quick reflexes, I ran to the boy, who was about to be struck by this giant steam roller, picked him up and got him to safety just in time. All was safe except for my backpack. I looked into the middle of the street with tears in my eyes hoping that the steam roller had missed it. To my dismay, I found my backpack, which contained my homework, as flat as a pancake. Alas, that is the truth." That truth got me four hours of detention. I thought my story was original, but Mr. Lopez said he had heard it a hundred times. I really try to do my homework, but I can only spend five minutes at a time with it, then I need an hour break for T.V. It's a no-win situation. Either you do your homework and your dog eats it or you don't do it and he eats it.

The worry is often caused by juniors and seniors who sometimes forget that they once were freshmen, and consequently pass on many pranks. Pranks, practical jokes and one-liners played on freshmen were numerous and often insulting. The trick to keeping the upperhand on upperclassmen is to pretend that it does not bother you and eventually the senior or junior will give up. To avoid falling victim to the "Senior Prank," beware of these initatives: do not buy elevator passes and do not accept directions on how to find a class, or you will end up at Room 02F. (For your personal knowledge, there is no Room 02F.) Another common prank is throwing pennies at unsuspecting Freshmen. Take cover and do not walk under stairwells. Seniors can be sly; beware of standing by an open locker, for you may be forced inside and spend up to three to four days in the locker before someone realizes what has happened to you. Beware of the sweat pants that you wear. Ask yourself these two questions. Should you A) wear sweats with draw strings? or B) wear cute underwear? Seniors are quick, they have depantsed many a frosh before. Ever since "Saturday Night Live" the Bill Murry "nuggies" have come.

I use to sing this song when I was a Brownie in the third grade. Those were the good old days. I was care-free, with no worries except trying to be in the " In" group. Now that I have grown up and reached high school the last thing I need on my mind is my friends. It is hard to worry about friends when you have tons of homework, exams, and projects to be done. Since the first day of my freshman year I was worried about making friends, and making sure I didn't lose touch with my friends from junior high. I was terrified! There were so many people, it was mind boggling. When I walked into my home~ room I slapped on a big smile and I'd say hello to everybody. I felt like the biggest loser because everybody was friends , they all knew each other from jr. high. I sat twiddling my thumbs for ten minutes talking to myself. Once the bell rang I'd be the first one out the door. In between classes wa s the best part of the day for me. This time was my only chance to catch my sanity. Walking to class I would see my old friends , for I had not made any new ones yet. I stopped and talked for the five wonderful, glorious minutes I had. As time went by I started making new friend s by just saying "hello" . People who I thought were big. snobs were the friend liest people. I found out making new friend s did not mean losing the old ones. So it just goes to show, all it takes is a friendly hello and a smile.

As she walks in the door her parents start questioning and yelling at her. " It's already one in the morning. Where have you been?" "You are grounded from using the car for one month, young lady." Suddenly what had been a fun Saturday night turns into pure misery. Lisa runs to her room, slams the door, and wishes she had never been born. T-isa is no different than most teenagers. Everyone has problems and fights with his or her parents once in a while. However each teenager has his or her own way of dealing with these problems. Feeling sorry for yourself is one of the most popular yet least effective approaches. Wishing for new parents or a different life usually makes the person more unhappy than the argument itself. Frustrations are often taken out on friends. They tend to be yelled at or sometimes they have to listen to hours worth of reasons why YOU are right and your parents are wrong. Then there are those teenagers who realize that talking to their parents in a calm, rational way could help the situation. Instead of crying and complaining they simply express their feelings openly. Parents tend to listen more intently to a mature, reasonable conversation than an outburst of tears and complaints. So next time you feel your world collapsing around you because of problem parents, calmly express your feelings and COMPROMISE. Remember, your parents have feelings and are human, too.

Tina forces one eye open, glances at the time, then presses the snooze button for that extra ten minutes. Now, at 6:10, Tina drags herself out of bed and into the shower. Doing her daily routine, Tina puts on her classic Levi blue jeans, an ideal sweatshirt revealing a college emblem, slips on her gym shoes, then goes down for breakfast. It's toast and orange juice, once again. Glancing at the clock Tina flips up the collar on her polo, grabs her jacket and runs out to catch the bus. Do you think you are typical?

The pompon girls had a great season, filled with well executed dance routines. These are the typical illnesses of many Niles West students: 1. Shoulder Shlump- caused by carrying an overloaded . backpack over one shoulder. 2. Stomache Syndrome- begins approximately one halfhour after consuming cafeteria food. 3. Senioritis- the well-known disease that attacks unsuspecting seniors, causing laziness and total apathy towards school. 4. The Hair Habit- a common disorder among teenagers, afflicting them with uncontrollabie impulses to flip their hair back, constantly comb their hair, or look in the mirror to check their looks. 5. Studly Strut- found among many "jocks" who find the need to impress others, often the Hair Habit females. 6. Estudiante Epidemic- students with foreign language as part of their curriculum unknowingly insert foreign expressions, such as "Adios amigos," "Guten tag," or "Bonjour amies" into their daily conversations. 7. Computer Complexion- the neon glow that radiates from the faces of computer-oriented students. 8. Secret Scribbler- the artists who feel compelled to make doodles or scratch words (often obscene) into their desks, usually a direct result of extreme boredom. · 9. The Slow Stroller- a common nuisance to the traffic flow in the hallways, these people impede the journeys of others as they walk at one-tenth the normal speed. 10. Procastinating Pupils- the complement to the Slow Stroller, these students are always rushing off somewhere, often to a class that began five minutes earlier. 11. Indian Illness- temporary insanity, lasting for a period of four years, driving students to spirited acts, such as the smearing of war paint across the face.

You're afraid to look at the clock. You know you've overslept again. It's 6:25 and you have to be at the bus stop at 6:45. As you drag yourself out of bed, you realize that you have to shower, dry your hair, dress, get your books together, and eat breakfast in 20 minutes. You hop in and out of the shower, blow dry your hair half way, and quickly walk to your room. You stop in front of the closet. Clothes. What are you going to wear? You rummage through your wardrobe and pull out the first thing you get your hands on. You run from room to room gathering all of your books and speed to the kitchen and stick two pop tarts in the toaster. It's now 6:40. You grab the half-cooked breakfast you have prepared and rush out the door. In the process, your shoe slips off and you stop to pick it up. As the busdriver begins to pull away, he sees you running at full speed toward the corner. You climb up the stairs of the bus and feel everyone's eyes on you. You suddenly remember that you have one shoe on, when one of your enemies points out that you have two different socks on. As the bus approaches the school, you see two people. As you get a closer look, you recognize the two figures as your best friend and your boyfriend. This is definitely not your day. Trying to forget about your boy problems, you look forward to getting back the history final exam that you were sure you got an "A" on. The teacher passes out the tests and as she hands you yours, she gives you a disappointing stare. Your stomach begins to churn. You're scared to look at the grade but you peek through the paper and almost cry at the sight of a "D" written on the top. nd The last bell rings at 2:45 a_ you jog to the bus. As you sit down with a pile of books on your lap, you realize that you would have been better off staying in bed. Just another one of those days.

On this day though, junior Joe Lochner finds no time to talk to friends as he thinks about his upcoming game. Soap operas came to Niles West in a flurry of who did what to who. It was common to hear in the halls, "What is going on in "General Hospital?"' Students tried to schedule their lunch mods around their favorite soaps. This enabled them to go home and watch the action. Other students taped the soaps to watch after school. Students who got out at 2:30 made it home in time to see the last fifteen minutes of General Hospital. Less fortunate students could always rely on the nighttime soaps. Dynasty, Dallas, Knot's Landing and Paper Dolls proved to be favorites among students and teachers alike. "My favorite television shows are Dynasty and Dallas," said sophomore Diane Smason adding, "I don't watch anything else during the week except these nighttime soaps." Students watched soaps for different reasons. Janet Rabin said, "I watch soaps because they keep my interest. You can't take them too seriously, but you can still have a good time watching them." Rabin's favorite soap was All My Children. "I get so into them and I love watching these people who have so many problems," said junior Michelle Burdeen. While some students took soaps a little too seriously, staying home just to see an episode and scheduling their lives around the soaps, if watched in proper amounts, soaps can be a fun, light form of entertainment. Soap operas are here to stay. If you are a "soap" fan, have fun and by the way, "Did you know that Luke and Laura are back on General Hospital?"

SENIORS". The Seniors rise to their feet and exclaim the chant over and over again. By far the seniors out spirit the rest of the classes. There seems to be such a strong bond when senior year rolls around that it is impossible to miss. That "bond" seems to really start during junior year. Junior year is a time that the students "must" seriously start to think. There are PSAT's, ACT's, SAT's, and consideration of future plans. The workload is tough but you know you'll live through it. Junior Paulette Arvanitis states, "Junior year is tense, there are a lot of things to be done but you know it'll be over soon, and there will be a time to kick back and have some fun!" Once the tension is gone, all that's left is relief. All that relief turns into pure WEST spirit. The Indian mascot turns to the side of the Juniors now and chants "JUNIORS JUNIORS" as loud as he can, but it's only second. Their competition is tough. No fear though, everyone knows next year that once those juniors turn into seniors that they'll be first.

I most memorable experience guess you could say that I kicked off my high school career with a fairly memorable experience. The first day of school my fre shman year, Marla and I decided to enjoy a leisurely breakfast at Lori's. We came in through the back door and Lori's father sat us down in the kitchen. He told us that Lori was in the bathroom and wou ld be out any minute. It took us about 15 minutes before we realized that while we had arrived through the back door, Lori had left through the front door. Not only did Marla and I miss the bus on our very first day of high school, but we didn' t have any breakfast either. It's kind of hard to remember the anxiety I suffered that day but imagine the trauma it has caused over the past 4 years. And people wonder why I am the way I am.

A file cabinet once filled to capacity with photos has been ransacked by editors, staff and picture-nappers. There are no croppers. The typewriters still don't work well. Amidst the carbon sheets and broken orange cropping pencils, the Spectrum Staff sits back and laughs at the memories of putting together 10719 '84-'85. Marlow, in the Heart of Darkness, put it best when he said, " They can only see the mere show, and never can tell what it really means. " When the Spectrum comes out each year, people who read it see completed pages that took many hours and people to produce. Only the editors and staff know the work involved in order to produce a book for Niles West students and faculty to be proud of. Please remember ... To Clockwise - Sports Editor senior Diana Santillan shows off her dynamite new design for the sports section to junior David Bloom, Advisor Jerome Orr and Design Editor Jackie Sirajullah. Focussing in on the action in the yearbook room, junior David Bloom captures the moment. Bloom was not only a staff photographer, but a staff reporter for all sections of the book. While Happenings Editor junior Stephanie Leader picks out last minute photos, Copy Editor junior Lisa Sandlow and junior Sunny Park make up captions for the page. 290 Spectrum Staff err is human. Sorry if we mispelled your names. The entire staff deserves commendation for not only doing what the editors asked of them, but for putting up with me, "fall deliver", and our "We have to talk seriously" talks. Responsibility to meet deadlines rested on the editors, and they met them (sooner or later). Anna Karalis and Jenny Smith became known as the staff comedians. The twosome spent hours typing the Senior Surveys and putting together Seniors with style in the first deadline. Laurie Adams (Super Woman) not only did the Underclass Section, but also helped with the Academics Section. Leah Seef was the "incredible indexer" and another Underclass Editor. Melinda Ring and Linda Kontos pizzazzed up the Clubs Section and answered many "deadline phone calls". Stephanie Leader (Don't Worry I'll make the Deadline Editor} made every deadline and captured the events in the Happenings Section. Diana SantilIan (I need pictures editor} put together spectacular Sports Section with new layouts and "ac tion copy". Nikki Rich and Michelle Burdeen got the pictures taken, sometimes three and four times. Lisa Sandlow proofed the copy that was sometimes filled with s pelling and typing errors. Paula Krone did the amazing Academics Section with no previous experience. Jackie Sirajulla h did more than just keep me laughing with his sarcasm and quoted pictures of Jim King. Even at 2:00 a.m. working on the color section, we still managed to have some great laughs, chokes and falls. Sharon Krone proofed the copy, Josten's Representative Dennis Eder answered the many questions and Seii.or Orr did yearbook (even on newspaper time). Orr not only supplied the answers, but the Diet Coke, sugarless candies and gum as well. Although it seemed that we would never complete the Spectrum's 296 pages, we did it by working together and " Mapping it Out" deadline after deadline. Julie Keller Editor-in-Chief �Counter clockwise - While Club's Editor junior Melinda Ring sketches out plans for the clubs' section, Assistant Clubs' Editor senior Linda Kontos, Design Editor senior Jackie Sirajullah and Assistant Seniors' Editor senior Jenny Smith take time out to think about designs for their own pages. After the Underclass Section of the Spectrum is finished, junior Laurie Adams spends time helping junior Paula Krone with the Academics Section. After spending hours typing the Senior Surveys, seniors Jenny Smith and Anna Karalis look through pictures to include in the section. "Index work" is very tedious, but with the help of sophomore Jill Hedrich, r:e:f: liiiii;;:;;::::::::::::~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~;;;;.;so;p;h;o;m;;o;re;;L;ea~hSe 's::jo:b::is:a::lo:t:e:a:s:ie:r:.:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::;;:;;iiiii;;I Spectrum Staff 291 �Separate Wavs As June finally arrived, students and faculty saw the results of their year planned out. Looking back we see a calendar filled with special dates and memorable events. Along the , journey we recall such sights as the first days of school. While some students were getting used to the new route, others were working on their last journey through this "Indian Territory". Midway along . the year's path, "West Travelers" stopped at such sights as: The First Friday Night Bash, The Boston Pops Concert, Shorts and Sunglasses Day, Homecoming Week, and the Battle of the Bands. As months passed, traffic changed and signals showed that an exit to a new route was up ahead. Signs directed "student journeyers" to Finals, Prom and Graduation. This path, Niles West, is only a small part of the map of life. For underclassmen, this path continues with more stops to be made up ahead before departure. Yet for seniors, this path prepared them for a greater road, with more stops to be made along the journey. Their itinerary ahead will take more careful planning and perhaps will include some detours and roadblocks. But the experience gained in "INDIAN TERRITORY" will provide the knowledge and foresight needed throughout life's journey and "MAPPING IT OUT". _ 292 Departure Far right: Unit_y . . . Homecoming '84 proved to be successful with everyone promoting togetherness and school spirit. Below: Caring ... Senior Nina Stein comforts a friend during band practice. Right: Encouragement .

And Why? "Ronald Reagan, for he swept to victory in the election in 1984 with a supposed mandate. The country has also become very conservative thanks to his views. This change in view will have great effect upon us for years to come." senior Michael Goroff "Geraldine Ferraro, because of her, the politics in the 1980's will be changed. The concept of a woman or any other minority will be able to hold the highest office of the land." junior Howard Ankin "Indira Gandhi, late Prime Minister of India, influenced the United States, mostly in her relations with Russia. For this reason, she bought numerous weapons from Moscow, bringing India close with Russian troops. During this time India was slowly moving away from the U.S. Indira Gandhi helped influence this change in policy and due to this she influenced world events." senior Sharon Sylan "Margart Thatcher, Prime Minister of Britian. She is the leader of a very powerful and influencial nation. She proved herself many times and received the nick name of the Iron Lady." senior Vicky Kalogri1 Student Life - 11 �Question: In your opinion, who is the most influential person in the 1980's, and why? "Ronald Reagan. since during the course of his first term in office. Reagan has established a very unique economic and foreign policy. He has begun to set the course for new government policies that will last well into the twenty-first century." sophomore Joseph Weiss " Ronald Reagan, the reasons for this are varied and many. The first is the fact that Reagan has increased the power of his office to the extent where he can wage war without the consent of the people. Second, he has followed an unwritten policy of covert aggression toward foreign governments making these countries and the region in which they are located unstable." senior Leonard Becker "Dr. Carl Sagan because not only does he impress one as being knowledgeable in the field of science, but also inspires one with his moralistic and philosophical viewpoints of life." junior Andrea Brostoff "Pope John Paul II, he has an enormous multitude of followers all over the world to both Catholics and non-Catholics who look to him for guidance and faith." sophomore. Cheryl Cohn "The computer. Due to recent technology. the computer has enabled us to do things faster, easier, and more efficiently. 1984 came and past, and as Orwell predicted, the computer has now taken over not only human life, but our total existence." junior Adam Stone �Hangouts Students' Favorite Places During non school hours, North students hang out at favorite places. Old Orchard shopping mall is a popular spot at lunchtime as well as on Saturday afternoon. A familiar face can be found among the rows of books at Kroch's or in line at Boudin's. Those that have cars race over to Mage's or Poochies for "real food" on their lunch hours. Saturday nights Vikings are out on the town. Old Orchard Theatre is a good old standby when there isn't a game or dance at school. Students ready for college life can be found mingling with Northwestern students on the rocks at the beach or at a Greek house party. For a evening snack, many students meet at JK Sweets or Swenson's.

At eight o'clock each morning North students tune into the daily PA anouncements. For some students these are a very important ten minutes because it gives them a last chance to study or finish up their homework while for others it is a great opportunity to catch a few 'Z's' or to soqialize.

There is a constant rush of hungry teens from 11 :00 to 1:30. The cafeteria becomes a social gathering place during these hours as those that are hungry wait in long lines while others mingle at their usual tables. The Senior varsity teams have their own tables In the East cafeteria while many of the band members eat on the west side. Anyone that is looking for some company during the day can always find student life in the cafeteria. �Trivia 1984 1. Who broke Jim Browns NFL career rushing yards record? • • • ENTERTAl NM ENT: 2.

No matter what the activity may be, a club meeting. play rehearsal, or band practice, the students are participating. and most important, getting involved. Offered a wide variety of activities to choose from, students can join the clubs that most appeal to their interests. and also choose the ones that help them express themselves. Different activities range from learning and creating, to competing in tournaments. With this wide choice, the Activities Program includes most of the student body. Amidst all the enthusiasm of JOining clubs. some students join a club because their friends 101ned it. As a result, many find that the club holds an interest for them. This interest may grow, and the activity becomes something that they really want to do, and be involved in. Activities aren't only a place where they can exchange ideas or expand their knowledge, but also a time when they can meet new people, make new friends. or socialize with those they already know. This is especially helpful for freshmen and new students. The clubs are also time fillers. Most students don't do their homework right after school, and a club then becomes a good time filler for that unoccupied time. The atmosphere in a club is more relaxed. The students still learn, but the pressure of the school day is gone. The students can contribute to a group, and in doing so. may not only improve the school, but also themselves. -Ingrid Schensema Activities - 17 - �Getting opinions from other staff members was common.

While every member of the staff waited anxiously for the arrival of the publication, their work wasn't done. They started on the organization and theme for the next yearbook. Long hours of dedication and hard work were put into every layout. Writing assignments and interviews were done at the beginning of the year to improve the students writing ability. Pictures were taken, selected, cropped and matched with captions. Interviews and research was done to develop the body of the copy work. After sending the layouts to the Josten company and receiving the proofs, they were checked to make sure that everything was done correctly. But most of all, deadlines had to be met. After the staff had developed the layouts, Gary Dubin, the chief-in-editor, and Mr. Grabowski , the advi sor, checked and rechecked every page. On top of doing this, they both assisted the staff by cri tiqueing and supervising their work. The 21st edition included fresh ideas and additions because of the experience of new staff members. More color was used in the publication and a special theme was chosen to unify the book. The Saga members worked towards producing a book that the student body would appreciate and enjoy.

The paper, written by the Newspaper Production class, was produced every two weeks, keeping the staff on their toes. The stories were written, copy edited, proof-read, type-set by the printer, pasted on layout sheets, and then printed. Because of the hard work that went into the paper, the staff was awarded. The paper was named a Columbia Scholastic Press Association Medalist in 1984, adding another award to the already large collection of awards.

These clubs provide an outlet for talent in different fields. Calliope, the student literary magazine, contains art and literature submitted by students and is also sponsored by Mr. Laforge. Randy Oyler, the editor-in-chief, is looking forward to this year's special twentieth anniversary edition. "Calliope is an excellent showcase for students to display their literary and artistic talents," Randy commented. The Art Club, in its second year, is sponsored by Ms. Judi Miller. Reed Adler, the 1984-85 clu b president, stated that the club is presently working on a mural which will be placed in the East 22 - Cafeteria. " The Art Club provides students with a creative outlet for expressing ideas through projects not available in the classroom," explained Reed. The Forensics Team competed in speech tournaments in which individuals spoke in different styles. Sponsor, Mr. Wolf, and coach, Ms. Kennedy, helped the students improve their speech techniques. "This team allows students to gain knowledge of world affairs, it also provides opportunities for students to improve their speaking abilities and master rhetoric and the command of the english language," stated Jack Hsu. - Jeremy Boshes A member of Art Club checking over her supplies.

The National Honor Society achieved this through its traditional in-school tutoring system on a student-to-student basis. The tutoring committee was chaired by Society member Adam Lashinsky. During the holiday season some members of the group visited children wards at local hospitals bringing small gifts and especially high spirits. After the project senior Rosy Aronson commented, "I really think the chi ldren enjoyed it. One even said, 'This is so fun!' That made our day." The Honor Society also worked with the Response Center to develop and sponsor workshops and focus groups. They formed a panel which spoke and answered questions of the faculty in March. This helped both the students and 24 - the faculty to understand each other and the stress that is felt from both sides. The Student Congress helped a charity through its school cause committee. According to tradition the Congress raised money through a silent in-school auction. This year however, seniors Faryl Simon and Darcy Frank organized a live auction which was held on a Saturday morning and opened to the community. The merchandise was donated by communi ty businesses and more money was raised than in previous years. Elected Congress officers also showed concern within the school as members of EPAC and PTSA. EPAC representative Aaron Weiss stated, "The committee is a direct link between the students and the school board. The reps in the group -parents, teachers, and studentsconsider each other as equals and the students are fairly represented." -Darcy Frank Student Congress - National Honor Society The Congress met in C 100 every Thursday after school.

Both of the clubs, sponsored by Mary Murphy, involved leadership and volunteer skills for the benefit of others. This year Mrs. Murphy worked with two assistants; Bob Shein in and Al Ross. They came to all the meetings with advise and new ideas for the members. Project Lead began its year with an Orientation Unlimited. The leaders volunteered their time over the summer to plan and organize this event. The Project Leaders also held a car wash, which helped to raise money for the Response Center. The members port rayed their devotion and efforts in several different areas in order to serve their community. Student Leadership, however, dealt 28 - only with the students inside of the school. There were weekly meetings which consisted of planning of the leadership groups and a great number of activities. These activities helped the future leaders get to know each other, learn how to cope with their own problems a little better, become good listeners, and just simply how to relax. A great number of ideas were gotten from a workshop which was held at Niles East in late October. " Besides learning new techniques, I always loved just opening up to the group and finding out that I wasn't the only one with a certa in problem," commented one of the members. After several meetings, the leaders paired up and recruited students for the groups. The leaders shared their techniques and experiences with their groups.

(Bottom) s quad Promotes Spirit This year was a great year to be a Cheerleader. The Varsity Cheerleaders helped lead the Football Team to an over five hundred season. In addition they added to the Varsity Basket ball Team's drive to its first conference Championship. "We want to get the fans involved and excited with the team," said Senior Amy Kohn. "We have a great time, but it's hard work," added Jill Kushnir. To spite how it really is, the crowds would never know it by going to games. The squad always gives everything they 've got and makes it look great. " Being at all the games isn't enough, we have to get the fans and the team going. " explained Junior Terrie Kloiber. Spending hours on routines is a common th ing to the girls. " It's part of our responsibility. We owe it to the school," commented Senior Lisa Lebovitz. The squad, made up of Seniors and Juniors works after school, during the reg- 30 - ular year and during the summer months as well. By attending clinics and away games is how they get ideas for new cheers and routines. Many cheers are modified or rearra nged and some are developed from inspiration of other squads. The Varsity Cheerleaders have a working relationship with the Vikettes, the Pep Band, and all the other cheerleaders in the Conference. At each basketball halftime. the Viking Cheerleaders, perform a cheer together. This is an important display of sportsmanship and camaraderie among all the cheerleaders and teams. The girls felt that the season was positive. Students were more enthused, attendence was up at the games and the teams felt good. Amy Kohn said, '' I hope we had something to do with that.

Yes, you probably guess it right . The game would not be the same without them. " Lets go Vikings, we're gonna fight, we're gonna win this game tonight!" was just part of a cheer performed at football and basketball games by the sophomore cheerleading squad. Whether the team was winning or losing, the cheerleaders were there to keep the spirit high and were striving to make Northi fans respond with spirit and en thusiasm as well. The support given by the cheerleaders encouraged Niles North teams onto victory. The girls worked very hard throughout the year. In order to have everything precise and exact as a complete squad, long hours of practice were spent on each routine performed by the cheerleaders. Their hard work gave them valuable experience and improved the cheers. The cheerleaders had a very big responsibility to the school as well as the team. Fortunately, they enjoyed the opportunity to meet new friends, while having a good time. " Cheerleading was fun, because it enabled me to meet new people while being a part of the school sociably, " commented Lesli Rubenstein .

Being the new addition to North, the Freshman Cheerleaders were a squad filled with pride, enthusiasm, and a sense of adventure. Cheerleading in high school was a new experience to most of these girls. For the first time in their lives, the Freshman Cheerleaders participated in high school events. The girls' responsibilities were to promote school spirit and involve the freshman class in cheering for the Vikings. The Freshman Cheerleaders attended all athletic events, at home and away, and acted as leaders in setting a good example in regard to proper school spirit and good sportsmanship. The Freshman Cheerleaders worked very hard throughout the year. After school, they practiced their new mounts and cheers. In order to earn money for camp and awards, they sold candy, popcorn , and pop.

One can find them sweating it out three times a week after school or performing at the half time shows at the football and basketba ll games. Although each routine lasts only a brief two or three minutes, many hours are spent in preparation fo r their performances. This years squad consists of 28 members, 14 seniors, 8 juniors, and 6 sophomores, the largest squad ever! With such a big squad organizat ion was not easy. Over the summer the girls attended a four day pom-pon camp in Rockford Illinois. They competed against 13 schools and finished with the highest honors, including a first place in all-around competition. "Going through camp together made everyone feel as if they really belonged. Whether they had been on the squad for years or if this was their first we performed together great," stated co-captain Chris Pardel. Being a Vikette is not as easy as it looks. Many girls have to give up other activities such as work, other sports, or just hanging around with friends. A lot of credit is due to their sponser, Mary Maday Vernon who helped make things a lot easier.

Announcements during AAA included the time and places of the club or activity meetings and related the successes and fai lures of the sport teams to the students and faculty. The '84-'85 school year was marked by special announcements for senior class board sponsered Basketball Bashes due to the unique style of David Goldman.

The leaders program was open to students who showed an interest in physical education, excellence in physical skills, and displayed leadership qualities. These aspiring leaders carried heavy responsibilities. They were in charge of warm up excercises, equipment, demonstrations, setting up tournaments, and spotting their pupils during difficult moves.

" This club is a learning experience, and is intended for both foreign and American students. " stated Mr. Thomas. As the International Club entered its fourth year, it took part in many activities. The biggest of these was the collection for the Ethiopi- Medical Club - - - - ---- - - - - an Relief Fund. Members collected contributions from students and faculty members, and sent it to the Catholic Relie Charaties. Other activities included the members presenting native dances to the P.T.S.A. in February, and the Act ivities Fair. Those involved with the club joined be cause of the interest to share their different cultural backgrounds. Twenty-five ac· tive members met every three weeks or Thursdays. The students were in charge of the agenda. They discussed old I ne11 business, viewed video tapes and films o different countries, and had panels o speakers from the club discuss the countries they came from .

But to some, Friday was not only the last day of hearing the tone sound, but also the day when the members of the Creative Cooking Club and the Current Events Club would hold their week ly meetings. The Creative Cooking Club, which was sponsored by Mrs. Mary Ann McElfresh, allowed students to try their hand at cooking. The- core of about sixteen students who made up the club were a dedicated group. " They showed me that they were rea lly interested in cooking _aod serious about the club," stated Mrs. McElfresh. Meeting almost every Friday at 3: 15 gave them plenty of time to cook, althoug h many stayed past the usual six p.m. finishing time. The dishes prepared ranged from simple candies and cookies to cornish hens and full course dinners. To cover the cost of ingredients, mem- - 56 - bers paid a fee of one dollar each per meeting. The students not only cooked for themselves, but also for school board meetings, open house, and the activities fair. Also on Fridays after school, Mr. Richard Miya, sponsor of the Current Events Club, hosted a fast paced game. The game was about current events, and students could go to the meetings and test their knowledge about world events. Members of the club were divided into teams and then competed to be the first to answer the questions. Questions were made up from such categories as national and international affairs, politics, economics, war and peace, social problems, science, and sports. Students who participated in the club, found it to be a stimulating experience, and a test of their knowledge. They learned about the structure of the government, skills in answering questions, and competitive game playing. According to Mr. Miya, "Currents Club has some St the brightest and most creative people in the school." -Ingrid Schensema -Cheryl Cohn (BELOW) During a Current Events meeting, member Mike Auslin ponders the question given. l l:J Creative Cooking - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- l ......__, --------- - - - - - - �d to BELOW) All the ingredients in, Daxa Dave uses the to combine them. ~,xer (BELOW) Standing with his back against the categories, sponsor Mr. Miya reads off the next question to the teams.

They were Computer Club, Chess Club, and Math Club. The Computer Club is made up of a new generation of people who have realized the immense possibilities and capabilities of the computer. This year has witnessed an explosive growth of interest in the field of computer science. Members of the Computer Club have developed programming techniques through the use of recreational games and practical applications of computer software. Club meetings gave members the opportunity to gather information about computers and computer related careers. The Computer Club is sponsored by Mr. George Pryjma. The Chess Club was designed for the student who enjoyed the game and was interested in meeting others who shared the interest. The chess team com- 60 - peted against other high school clubs and was a member of the North Shore Chess League. Mr. Frank Cardulla sponsored the club and assisted its members in learning to play chess and challenged their skills as chess expertise in playing the game. The Math Club, under the direction of Mr. Jerry Smith, was made up of a group of students who are highly skilled math students. These students tested their math skills against clubs from other high schools and each other. The math team, which was made up of club members, participated in the North Suburban Math League. League meets pitted the talented math minds from Niles North against students from nine area schools. At meetings, members practiced with the math team and explored different concepts of math not normaily taught in high school math cou rses. -Jamie Kwan (ABOVE) Members ol the Chess Club explained to interested students about how to play chess.

" I feel that each year, we are broadening our activities and trying to expose the students more to the Hispanic Culture." commented Ms. Park. Originally formed at Niles East, the Environmental club moved to Niles North seven years ago taking the place of the Green Thumb club. The sponser of the club Mr. Kral DeJonge had stayed with the club throughout its existance at Niles North. Mr. DeJonge's stated purpose for the club was to make students more aware of the growing and dying environment all around. Another purpose was to get students involved in conservation projects. This year the staff at Niles North also participated in making students more aware by giving talks about an area known to them. These lectures included Mr. Wayne Lueck talking about acid Environ mental Cl ub - Spanish National Honor Society - ---- f/\l.

Spanish teacher and club sponsor Judith Park assisted the students in their annual churros sale and pinata raffle . Learning spanish traditions and customs, helping to raise funds for scholarships for seniors and helping to pay for a retreat at George Willaim College were the goals of the club. In addition to the other activities that the club was involved in, they also took a trip to eighteenth street in Chicago to visit and donate goods to a needy Spanish family.

As well as the school song, many other selections were performed throughout the season. Director of Bands Elton Eisele said, " I was excited about the program this yea r." " I was more familiar with the kids and the school," he continued. Eisele, in his second year as Band Director brought with him a fresh and optomistic attitude to the band program. With the new year, new events were sponsored. The Marching Band held it's first annual Marching Band Festival and Band raffle to raise money for the band's spring tour to Orlando, Florida. Invited to the festival were all marching bands in the North Suburban Confrence. The Marching Band is made up of all four grade levels students from the concert and symphonic bands. In addi tion to the band, 1984-85 marked the second year of the Northern Lights flag team, also under the direction of Mr. Eisele. The flag team added a certain contrast to the halftime shows, and are expected to become an award winning team in the years to come. " I feel the wheels of success have been set into motion," Eisele said. "It is my job now to see that they don't stop turning, " he concluded. In a pre game warm up.

B and Fest-------------~ The annual May Festival of Bands this year, directed by Elton Eisele, was an "earful!." the concert was kicked off by the Jazz Band which played a variety of up beat jazz charts. The Jazz Band was followed by the Concert Band. They began with an English piece entitled "Three Songs from Sussex" and ended with a strong overture cal ed ''Centurion''. After a brief intermission, the Symphonic Band presented the remainder of the show. This would be the last official performance for the senior members of the band. Halfway through the show the senior band members each went up to the front of the stage to say goodbye to Mr. Eisele as he presented them each with their band pins. Soon, fall had arrived once more and juniors were now seniors. They were to be the new outstanding members of the band. Of course, there were new freshmen as well.

The spring tour was planned early. The band would fly to Orlando, Florida and participate in a nation band competition. This included all bands. The Jazz Band, Symphonic Band, Concert Band and Marching Band would all perform. The Concert Band would play a selection called Festive for the contest and two others. The Symphonic Band's selections were Commando March, Variations on a Korean Folk Song and Flight. Flight, a newly written piece, made it's Illinois debut in March with the Niles North Symphonic Band performing. The Jazz Band would compete with a number of selections. The Marching Band would not compete, but would perform at Walt Disney World's Epcot Center. Throughout the year, many new ideas and events were constructed and planned. The second annual Band A Thon was just an example. There certainly is a marked difference in the band program since Eisele became director.

The string section was especially strong. Thirty three students made up the string section and a total of fifty five students comprised the entire orchestra. This year a number of very talented students were members of the orchestra. Six students were selected for the AllState Orchestra Convention in Peoria Illinois. Two of these musicians were chosen as " Outstanding students in their divisions." Chris Choi was selected as the outstanding student in the first violin section and A.J. Bautiata received the honor from the second violin section. Mr. Sklar, the orchestra conductor, was very proud of these stu dents and commented, " It was the highest honor to be achieved in the All-State Orchestra." This year the orchestra auditioned to compete in an international contest in Orlando Florida in the Chamber Orchestra Division. The students raised money during the year by selling candy and cookies, and sponsered an orchestra dinner concert at Niles North. Mr. Sklar stated that the goal for the year was " To develop a strong sense of identity and pride in the orchestra by student involve ment in the musical and fundraising activities.''

Underclassman dominated the Choral Union, a choir whic h combined male and female voices. Advanced choral students were included in the Chamber Choir. Chamber Choir was a group of selected students. Each year the choruses participated in seasonal festivals. Music sung by the choruses ranges from classical tunes of the eighteenth century to arrangements of popular songs being sung now. Students in both choruses were taught to read, and understand music. Choir was a class, and a learning experience. Whether a student was in Choral Union or 70 - Chamber Choir, hard work was needed in order to sing a song "perfectly". According to most of the members of the choruses, being in choral groups has its good and bad parts. The bad part was having to rehearse parts of songs until they were perfect. However, the good part was the reward, after the concert, of knowing that you had done a great job. Chorus members enjoyed the chance to sing in the North Suburban Choral Festival. This all-day event brought together ten north suburban high schools to form one giant chorus. Throughout the day, students were separated into groups for sectional rehearsal. In the evening, the combined choruses presented a concert. -Jamie Kwan (ABOVE) Lena Akel ian and Carolyn Schubert sing their pitches Chamber Choir - Choral Union - - - - - -- - - - - - - �C W) Nate Weiss takes a moment, to flash a smile.

Involvement in the Theater Department varies from person to person. Acting, singing, and dancing, to applying makeup, costuming, painting, lighting, construction and directing. All of these things are important in putting on a good and successful show. While the actors and actresses are busy working hard at rehearsals, the tech. crew is busy working on the set; the customers are busy working on the costumes; and the ticket and publicity committees are wo rking hard to bring in the students and the public as an audience. The shows put on by the Niles North Theater Department include ch ildrens shows, Norsecapades, musicals, and dramas. "I feel that the Theater Department is important because it gives students the opportunity to find out if they want to be an actor or actress, and have fun in the process," stated Jerry Profit.

The first major event of the year was Homecoming. It began wi th Spirit Week. and at this time, each day focused on a different theme and the students dressed accordingly. The week ended with spirit day and the bleachers at the pep assembly were filled with students dressed in purple and white. The assembly led to the Homecoming Parade the next morning and the game in the afternoon. for which many spirited students and alumni showed up to root for the Vikings. The excitement lasted through the night as many attended the Homecoming dance and enjoyed themselves "Under the Big Top." Throughout the year. there were many chances for students to show their acting abilities. The first play presented was ''The Childrens Show.'· The cast ranged from freshmen to seniors and the audience was of all ages. Alter the Childrens Show. the talk was of Norsescapades. This was a chance for theatre and nontheatre students, who weren't just interested in drama, to perform in different areas. These areas included singing, dancing. satirical skits, and specialty acts.

Spirits At An All Time High With the theme "Cage The Hawks" . Homecoming 1984 promised to be a blast. Like all traditional homecomings, the occasion kicked off with a Spirit Week to get the student body interested in the celebration. The festivities for the week started on Tuesday with Hawaiian Beach Day. Wednesday was Nerd Day. Thursday was Blues Brother / Toga Day and Friday was Purple And White Day. For the first t wo days, not many people dressed up, but as the week came to an end, more and more people got into the spirit of things and participated. By Friday, the energy and spirit which had been brewing all week came to a peak. Friday was the day of the Pep Assembly. Viking spirit could be seen and felt everywhere. The chee rleaders led the crowds of excited students. Even the bad weather did not det er the kids from showing their Viking spirit. The Pep Assembly included the introduction of the Homecoming Committee and the awards for the football players. Pete Anderson won two awards, one for the cutest baby photograph and the other for " Player most likely to become a Chicago Bear" . After the awards the cheerleaders were introduced before doing their routines. The Vikettes also did two rout ines. One used a song from the movie "Revenge of The Nerds" (the Vikettes were dressed up as nerds for this song) and the other routine was done to the song "On The Dark Side." Half way through the song, the music quit but the Vikettes didn't. They continued to perform without the music. The Homecoming Court was then announced and Homecoming Queen Diane Stahlberg was crowned. This ended the Pep Assembly, but the Viking spirit didn't diminish. It carried over to Saturday, the day of the parade, the alumni brunch, the football games. and the dance. The parade started off a day that would have been perfect if the weather had not been dreary. Floats, horse-drawn buggies, clowns, cheerleaders in cars, and the Niles North Marching Band all were part of the parade. Later in the day, the football games against North Chicago were played. The freshman team was not able to play because North Chicago High School did not have a freshman team. The sophomore team played a great game and won with a score of 28 to 6. The Varsity Team toppled their North Chicago opponent with a victorious 35 to 12 score. Homecoming 1984 "caged the Hawks."

Even though the weather was wet, the extravagant clothing was displayed on May 25th at the 1984 Prom " We' ve Got Tonight." The theme was elected by the students and was chosen unanimously from all the other suggested themes. 1930's art deco scenery was used to decorate the ballroom of the Mart Plaza Hotel. Because of some last minute preparations, students waited in the lobby until 9:00 pm before setting their eyes on the final product. Taking advantage of this time some people mingled while others took their formal pictures. Black and white balloons were surrounding the tables and silverish sparkles over the table cloth made everything dazzle. Further into the evening the prom committee gave their speech.

The team members have shown their dedication by attending practices and games on a regular basis. The support and cooperation of the individuals helping each other was apparent at sports events. The experienced team members helped during practices and during games by giving encouragement and by showing the inexperienced team members what they were doing wrong or made suggestions for improvement. Team members encouraged each other during a game by cheering each other on and giving moral support when they lost or didn't ex- ecute a play correctly. The major lessons learned by all team members were discipline, committment, and pride. They were disciplined by attendance. They learned respect for their teammates, opposing teams, and coaches. The Niles North teams represent good sportsmanship at all competitions by not arguing over calls, fighting with opposing teams, and treating their teammates and coaches with respect.

Most Valuable Player Rob Powers gave his team's excellent hitting and base running credit for the many wins. The tremendous amount of spirit the Sophomore MVP players had helped, too. As for the losses, Powers stated that the defense needed improvement. He partially blamed the poor condition of their field for the many errors made.

The Viking Freshman finished their season with a record of 12 wins, 9 losses. They came in second place.

What does the term, school, mean to them? According to some students, school can be defined as a place to study. to achieve. to prepare. to grow, and to have fun. To others, school can be a tough place or sometimes exhilarating. School can be an opportunity for students to develop their individualities. Despite the various views of school, there is a common idea, school is, a place of discovery, knowledge, and challenge. Niles North is remarkable for having a large number of courses which provide flexibility for each student. From a long list of courses, students designed programs suited to their individual interests. They chose a broad framework of education from art classes to science courses. Most of the North students have very well-planned, balanced four years of study which consist of English, science. mathematics. social studies, foreign languages, and liberal arts. Coupled with a rich and varied intellectual experience. a student can find solid preparation for future studies. Besides education and students, faculty is another important element in the school community. The quality of Niles North's academic programs is complemented by the quality of its faculty, whose members are involved in both teaching and helping students. This is an important advantage for students. Having instructors who are experts in their subject areas, students gain deeper insight through their learning. -Jamie Kwan Academics - 157 - , �Gail Jones thinks intensely about her assignment.

There are two sections that students are graded on, Honor Roll grade point average and cumulative weighted grade point average. Courses are weighted according to difficulty, from one (the lowest) to five (the highest). The higher the weighted course is, the more the grade counts. The honor roll grade point average is calculated on a fou r point system and unweighted grades. This average equals the grade point totals divided by the sum of attempted credits. The honor roll is selected on the basis of semester grades only. The cumulative weighted -rade point average uses the weighted grades chart, which gives students more credit for the more difficult courses they take. After a student has completed five semesters of classes, certain courses are excluded from the grade point average computation. Brian Jacobs Mr. Coul•on grades the daily assignments.

APP was short for the Advanced Placement Program. These courses used sophisticated materials to challenge students minds. The program, sponsored by the College Board, was based on the idea that many students could complete college level studies in high school. The coordinator for APP testing at Niles North was Judy Segal. APP courses included almost every subject area of the curriculum. By taking APP courses students gained experience in college level course work, learned to take test given by the College Tests Board, and received college credit for their APP courses. Students who received a th ree or higher on the test taken in May were given college credit. The more APP courses taken and exams passed the more money a student ct'fuld save by not having to take the course in college. The students involved in the APP program were recommened by their teachers. Being informed about various colleges was important to many seniors. The college resource center provided valueable information about colleges and career choices. Conveniently located in the Guidance office, the college resource center was financed by the School Board and organized by the Student Services Department. The room has college catalogs, from schools around the country. Students could also find information about financial aid, summer programs, vocational and technical schools and the Armed Services. The college resource center has been in existanced for two years. It contained two information retrieval aids. One resource was a computer that would produce a computer check on a college, giving the college costs and necessary entrance requirements. The second device was a laser disk video machine that showed ten to fifteen minute flicks of a college. This gave students a closeup view of a college. -Cindy Dikeman (left) Deciding it is time to start thinking about attending college a student may go to the College Resource Cen ter to look up some colleges as this student decided to do.

Many people know very little about the reading center at Niles North. From its name, one may think that it's just another resource center like the science or foreign language resource center. Yet there is much more here than meets the eye. In reality, the reading center is really a class. The instructor, Mrs. Willerman, offers a specially designed reading program to any student who wishes to improve his or her reading skills. Improving vocabulary, building comprehension, and learning to refine study skills are just some of the many improvements which the students in this course strive for. -Dennis Sanchez Laura AIH carefully chooses a book tor her own reading pleasure.

Backpacks stuffed full are a common sight when the three o'clock tone rings. As students load the buses complaints about difficult assignments, too many books and too little time, and disastrous tests are heard quite frequently. On the other hand, good grades are bragged about, plans to study in groups that night are made, and funny classroom incidents are reenacted for friends. Some are looking forward to dissecting a fetal pig in biology the next day while others anticipate a field trip to the Botanic Gardens. The type of homework students do varies from course to course. Literature courses bring chapters of the classics to be read each night while spanish classes entail lists and lists of new vocabulary words to be memorized. Home economic classes mean sewing patterns to be designed while yearbook class brings layouts and the writing of copy as homework assignments. Creative writing classes lead the student on a venture through his own private journal each day while being a member of the band finds the student musician carrying his instrument home at night to work on a new overture and perhaps the minor scales. Whatever the assignment may be the student learns to organize his time efficiently, and he also gains a sense of responsebility- an important part of growing up. -Darcy Frank ..

The library is always open during school hours and many students go there to study quietly. However, connected to the main rooms of the Learning Materials Center is the fiction room where up-to-date magazines are available and where students can recline among cush ions on the floor to relax. The areas with stone benches near the main entrances are often used as quiet study places during students' free time, but one can also find them being used as gathering places for lively chatter when the pay phones are in use. The cafeteria is a good place to sit back and unwind with friends but there are those students who prefer to study while they eat. Many block out the noisy conversations around them and keep their heads in a book. Resource centers are another quiet place to study but the greatest advantage of the two hundred rooms is that tutoring is always available there. A teacher in the field is on call to help students at any time during the school day. Aside from the learning that ta kes place between eight and three each day teachers make themselves available to students that need extra attention after school. This helps the students to achieve academic success.

They are also involved with students and parents in clubs, on sports teams they host open house visitation, attend banquets, direct plays, advise class boards, and do many other things. The administrators are not here only from 8A.M. to 3P.M. Most of them are here long before and long after. Their job is not only to make decisions, but to know and relate to the students. During the 1984-85 school year, video tapes about how to get the most out of classroom time, and how to make that time useful, were shown to the teaching staff. "I think that these video tapes have helped greatly in improving the classroom," stated Dr. Hosler. Some teachers are still students. They attend classes at night in order to earn a higher degree, or expand their knowledge in certain subject areas. In the end, this benefits the student because they have more to offer them. Facu lty - 173 - �School Administration Ref in es Policies .' '' This year the administration of Niles North made two very significant improvements. One was the formation of a new attendance policy and the other was the addition of a seminar in study skills for incoming freshmen. Incoming freshmen were not aware of the new attendance policy but were affected by it. A student used to be able to have three unexcused absences from a class before he would be assigned to a day in the Behavioral Adjustment center. Currently, a student will receive a Saturday B.A.C. assignment after the second unexcused absence. This change in the attendance policy has improved the daily attendance at Niles North. This year each freshmen was taken out of his study hall about 14 times to attend a seminar in study skills.

It was a great chance for freshmen to sharpen their study skills and start on the road to academic success. The administration of Niles North made important and needed changes. These improvements helped the students to have a beneficial and successful school year. As Dr. Galen Hosler stated "I believe our new freshmen are bright, motivated young people who will use the skills they learned to their best advantage. Also, after looking over the data collected on class attendance, it is obvious that the new attendance policy is working and has resulted in a significant improvement in class attendance."

Although Robinson no longer makes court appearances, he continued to handle divorce, probate, and business merge cases. Robinson became interested in law when he started teaching in Niles Township in 1960. Robinson an active member of the Bar Association had opportunities to meet many famous political figures which included: Tip O'Neal, the late Mayor Daley, Governor Thompson, and Jimmy Carter. Robinson commented that "Finding out that a case that I've been working on for months get settled out of court is a pain. Everyday doctors, lawyers. and judges will cancel out on a case which makes me mad. I decided to go back into teaching where there are no cancelations."

Since his teaching career began twenty-three years ago, he has taught all levels of chemistry. Cardulla has attended and lectured at many science conventions and has been instrumental in writing and grading national chemistry exams. He has published several articles in national chemistry magazines on aspects of chemistry and his teaching methods. Cardulla's students have won top awards in local and national chemistry competitions. Cardulla's AP students have made Mies North famous across the midwest for high scores on the AP exam. Students attribute their success to Cardulla's teaching methods, which give the students a fundamental understanding of concepts, rather than just memorization of formulas. In addition to his teaching activities, Cardulla sponsors the Niles North Chess Club. As time permits, he also enjoys playing piano and golfing. His peers in the field of chemistry have cited him as one of the nation's foremost chemistry teachers. He was selected to win the Davidson Award for Outstanding Chemistry Teaching, the Midwest Regional Catalyst Award for Chemistry Teaching, and most recently, the Presidential Award for Excellence in Science Training. According to Dr. Lee Hawkins, Director of Instruction, "He (Cardulla) represents the best one can be in his or her own profession." -Cheryl Cohn Gregory Youstra, M.A. Health Niles North is very fortunate to have Mr. Proffit as a theatre director. From eight in the morning till three in the afternoon, he is a teacher of Freshman English and various acting courses. After three, he is the director of our school's award-winning plays. Almost every year, one of the productions put on by Niles North students is selected to perform at the Illinois State Theatre Festival, which Proffit was very instrumental in starting. Mr. Proffit, who holds a masters degree in Theatre from Northwestern University, devotes most of his time outside of school to his main interest, improving the quality of high school threatre programs. He is a member of the American Theatre programs for a variety of intrest groups, ranging from Community to University theatre, as well as special programs for the handicapped and elderly. Although he has not done much acting since college, Proffit has made many contributions in threatre. He was the chairman of the National Threatre Convention held in Toronto, and he has spoken at conferences on the reasons for having high school threatre programs and what they should contain. Proffit hoped to take his skills to a higher level.

Among the 1,773 students of the 198485 school year no two are alike. The different personalities. looks. and races are seen. As one walks through the halls. many different languages are heard. Yet. they are all brought together, and belong to a common group of students. They are the students with different customs and backgrounds. but share same rules and classrooms of Niles North for 300 mn. every day. But for most individuals the day does not end after mod 29. The different after school activities keep them involved for hours to follow. There are the athletes and the actors, the musicians and the artists, the politicians and the writers, the debaters and the dancers. Some bake holiday cookies for the cooking club. while others solve complicated problems for the math club. And then there are the leaders and the volunteers. who throughout the year help others around them. Regular weekly meetings. everyday rehearsals and prac- tices keep the students going and striving for their best. Some are involved in a little of everything. others concentrate only on one particular activity, but all the different participants are unified into one spirited school body. While supporting the school and their peers. or just for their own fun. many come to the Friday night games. The others. however, are out there on the field or the court trying to do their best and often succeeding. There are, also, the after-school meets and the Saturday night performances. Once again, peers and parents come for support and entertainment. Many students are known for their honor roll performances, others for their artistic talents, and still others for their athletic abilities. Everyday new friendships form and every student slowly grows up. When that "grown-up " looks back at the school year. he realizes that all the devotion, spirit, and struggle has payed off. -Svetlana Torgovnik People - 185 - �As newcomers to Niles North the "class of 88" experienced some new and interesting challenges.

Freshmen year 1s the time to experiment and this year the Freshmen were not exception. The Freshmen Class Board got off to a slow start but their faces popped up in many of the extra curricular activities. Freshmen joined a variety of clubs that were of interest to them. Peer Counseling and the Marching Band were popular. Freshmen liked their new found freedom. High School meant choosing electives, dropping classes they didn't like. and having free time during the school day. Many Freshmen were shocked by all of the homework they were loaded down with at Niles North. Many had to adjust to the schedule and changes from junior high.

Becky, who had taken violin lessons for live years, joined the Concert Orchestra to improve her technique and enjoyed the chance to play a wide variety of music. According to Becky, music had been her favorite hobby for many years. In addition, she had also taken piano lessons for six years. "I decided to take violin and piano lessons because it was fun," commented Becky, " and I enjoyed playing music very much." Besides being an accomplished musician, Becky proved to be a very keen dancer also. At the age of five, she began to take tap dancing lessons. During the summer, she took formal dance lessons from a dance studio. Her interest in dancing led her to be actively involved in Auroris. "Being in the first year at high school was not a very major change," stated Becky when asked about freshman year in general, "many things were not totally different except the atmosphere and the people." For Becky, doing well in high school and getting good grades were her primary goals. As for the future, Becky hopes to become a psychologist.

Along with getting used to her Niles North schedule she also became involved in the spirit of homecoming. A bright energetic person, T•ny• was one to stand up and cheer for the home team. Although she admitted that getting involved and interested in our school sports was easier when she knew some of the players on the team, she still felt some loyalty to the other teams. During Homecoming, T•ny• was caught up in the excitement and looked forward to watching the parade and attending the big football game. While other kids had trouble adjusting to the new surroundings and people at North, T•ny• found the atmosphere comfortable. She owed this to the fact that she was not the type of person who was shy and quiet. Entering the high school routine was full of laughs and good times and Tmny• looked forward to more pep rallies and football games in her Sophomore year.

They were not considered "freshman" anymore and were determined to put the new freshman class in that role. Sophomore year was a fresh start after a long experimentation. Students no longer had to sneak to Old Orchard for lunch and then worry about getting a Saturday detention. Off Campus was finally available! Sophomores settled down to studying and achieving good grades after they realized that freshman year should have been taken more seriously. Being involved in more school related activities was another factor during sophomore year. Students showed more selfconfidence. Social life improved for many sophomores. Cliques were formed and everyone felt more comfortable with friends. Weekends were often spent at a friends house or going to the movies. Not being old enough for a drivers license, mom or dad still had to be called if a ride was needed. The 1987 class board was very organized and sponsored a homecoming float which took second place. It was the first time in many years that a sophomore class represented itself in the parade with a float. This fact alone showed how a group of students could be supportive and helpful to one another. The "Class of 1987" proved that students can work together and provide spirit and unity for their class and for their school.

She has traveled to South America, and there she visited Venezuela and lived In Bolivia for three years. This was a different experience for Debbie. Bollvla is a fairly mountainous region and Debbie'• home was located on a mountain. For fun Debbie and her friends played tennis and watched T.V. (even though there was only one station). Their school day was a lot shorter than our school day. The students would study math, science, social studies, English, and French. It almost sounds like the U.S. schools, but the Bolivian schools were much more strict. Returning to the U.S. Debbie was about one year ahead of her classmates. When Debbie and her family went to Venezuela. it was purely a pleasure trip. For about a month they visited the many sights that Venezuela had to offer. When asked which country she liked best and why, Debbie replied, "It would probably be Bolivia because I know it best." Debbie was also asked if she would be going back to South America in the near future and she said, "Probably so, but not until this summer or next summer."

David Sadkin contributed to this school service. He was involved in different branches of volunteering. One of these was helping out in the spanish department therefore allowing the stall to accomplish other things. David not only participated in this activity but he aided other students too. Involved with Project Lead, he assisted his peers by making them feel more comfortable in school. He also showed his concern for his peers by giving them a voice at the student congress meetings.

Sharon's background in music began in fourth grade. wnere she played the flute in the beginning band. After a year in the cadet band, she moved up to the concert band, the highest level of participation at Golf Jr. High. To participate in the marching band at Niles North, Sharon had to acquire greater skills in playing scales and learning new notes. As a member of the marching band, Sharon found it different from the junior high band. " In the junior high we only practiced three times a week for a half an hour. Here, we practice every day for an hour during our scheduled class time, and whenever we can in the morning before school or in the afternoon." she explained. She also practiced a half an hour every other day at home. In talking about the band. Sharon expressed a great deal of warmth for it. "The people are very friendly and we all have a really great time when we practice and perform." she commented. In the future. Sharon wants to continue with band all through high school and looks forward to playing in the symphonic band.

Juniors became more independent. and took on greater responsibilities. These included taking such important tests as the A.C.T. and the S.A.T. Junior year grades played a very important role in college futures. because Juniors were involved with looking into colleges; reading about them. visiting campuses. and even talking with administrators and counselors. This year was a time for Juniors to try their hardest to achieve the necessary grades to possibly attend the college of their choice. Along with studying, Junior year 1s a time to enjoy. Most Juniors were able to drive. and 1f at all possible. drove anywhere and everywhere with their friends. Juniors were now qualified for JObs, because they were at the legal age for working. Their income was used for gas. food. entertainment. and even put away for college. Junior Class Board had the important task of raising money and organizing Senior Prom. To do this. they held various sales. everything from twenty-five cent suckers to Prom tickets. As their Senior year rolled around. Juniors had the chance to look back on their '85 year. relax. let out a sigh. and smile.

Karol won her first competition, " Morton Grove Prairie View Six Mile Run," at the age of ten and has been a participant in this race every summer. Running four miles three times a week over the summer conditions Karol for running events. Outside of school the longest race she has run was the "W.L.S. 8.9 Mile Run," in 1983. In school, Karol has been on Cross Country, Indoor Track, and Outdoor Track. Karol qualified to ,> represent our school downstate as a freshman for Outdoor Track. Along with this, she was chosen Most Valuable Player for Cross Country. Sophomore year, Karol helped the Cross Country team become "Viking of the Week." Karol placed fourth in conference running the mile and the team went to Sectionals.

Without actually joining the military. the Lodh1s have become volunteers in the Skokie Valley Squadron of the Civil Air Patrol. "The program is for anyone in high school or older," said Aud. Shehld added, "We joined to get experience for our future." The Civil Air Patrol is a volunteer organiZation under the joint command of the Civil Defense and the United States Air Force. The two brothers entered the program two years ago and have steadily progressing through the ranks. Aud is now a Master Sargeant and Shahid Is a Technical Sargeant. "Each one of us is responsible for several lower ranking airmen," Shehld stated. "It's really team work, we all work together so we can be elfec· live," said Aud. The C.A.P., as it is refered to by its members, goes out on search and resue missions and other Civil Defense emergencies. "We use a variety of aircraft. ground vehicles and radio units," Shehld explained. The training program is rather extensive, it includes radio communications. aerospace education, mechanics and leadership skills. "one time we went up to Deerfield during an extensive period of flooding," Aud mentioned, " We assisted the Illinois National Guard filling sandbags all night, eventually stacking enough to save the city.

Starting in his freshmen year as an actor, he succeeded In being elected the president of the Thespians during his senior year. To be able to get to that position Aeron spent long hours rehearsing. directing and participating every year In the four major plays at the High School. As Aeron found out. being in theatre productions involves more than just acting on stage. Being organized was important. Aeron had to schedule his time so that he was able to rehearse and attend to his school work without dropping behind. Aeron commented, " To be able to succeed you have to have the mental attitude that there will always be somebody better than you and you won't make it on the first. second and third tryout. Nonetheless don't give up. at the end it will pay off with sell satisfaction among other things." Being able to talk or perform in front of a large audience, is another challenge. As Aaron stated, " Acting lets you open up, it helps you express your feelings without being afraid." Participating In straight drama and musical comedy, helped bron to grow in a personal and professional way. When Aeron acted in plays concerning actual situations, he was able to realiZe and understand how to cope with such situations. These experiences helped him mature. He learned to deal and work with large groups of people. Theatre gave him the chance to develop his skills in directing and acting. Aeron not only took courses at school but also during summer. He attended the Cherub program at Northwestern University. " This was a great opportunity for me. I had the chance to meet people involved in theatre from different places.'' commented Aeron. The program included classes in voice movement, directing, communicating and stage movement.

Leah volunteered to go with the Appalachian Service Project (ASP) to the Appalachian Mountains to repair poor people's homes. Before the group fixed the houses there were holes in walls, wall boards falling apart, and leaky pipes. The house that Leah worked on was one which the wall boards were falling apart. Leah and several workers installed new wall boards which made it possible for the family to continue living in their homes. The ASP stayed in the mountains for two weeks. One night was spent in the school gymnasium, and the other night in a hotel. Leah enjoyed this unusual experience and planned on going back the following summer.

She answered the telephone, filed schedules. and assisted Ma. Suun Frone, the principals secretary. At the beginning of her senior year, Ellubelh worked in the attendance office. " I think the volunteer program is an advantage for students. It helps them to appreciate how the school system runs and the people who make it run. It is fun to get involved, and I like to help all I can," stated Ellubelh. During the summer Ellubelh worked as a volunteer at community hospitals. "It was quite an experience, one worth doing. It can get very depressing to be with people who are sick, and less fortunate than yourself, but they need the help and I w11s willing to give It."

He will be pursuing a career in Aeronautics. Biii had always had a deep interest in aviation. It was not influenced by any one person, but the planes themselves. The interest started when he was young, and he carried it with him to high school, where it had remained strong; not like some childhood career ambitions. Biii felt that of all the courses he had taken at Niles North, Physics and Electronics have helped him the most in regard to his career goal. Biii had also operated an Amateur Radio. and held a middle- class license for it. " This radio can be for fun. but it can also be helpful to the community in an emergency," he stated. He had also visited the Patwaukee Airport towers, and observed the air traffic controllers there. When he graduates. Biii would like to attend T.C.U. (Texas Christian University), and work towards a major in either Physics or Economics. After the encl of his sophomore year, he expects to have enough insight to decide between the two, and will pursue the major in the one of his choice. As to what career he wants to pursue, he is undecided; although he wants it to be in the Aeronautics Field. "It is a choice between being an Airline Pilot or an Air Traffic Controller, but I will make that decision in college," he explained. After college. he will go on to get a Masters Degree in either Physics or Economics. Dorene O'Young Ronald Packowitz Millizett Pagan Chris Parde!

As we struggle to remember who was on that team or in that clu b, all we have to do is reach up in the back of the closet and pull down that good-old 1985 SAGA. As we thumb through it, the first thing we look for is our own class portrait and the portraits of our "best" friends. That aside, and thinking about how good we used to look, we just flip the pages, nostalgically, through the rest of the book. Looking at those special pictures and remembering, now, those special days, brings back happy and good memories. It is at this poin t that we rea lize the importance of our yearbook. The details of an entire year are in one book, bringing back our experience as students. We are reminded of activities during and after school, of parties and events that evoked school spirit. All are captured and recorded in the SAGA. For those of us who worked on this book there were seven more special memories. Amassing all this information was no simple task. We all owe much gratitude to all who helped bring about the completion of the 1985 SAGA. In spite, and perhaps even because of the fact that our staff was made up of unique individuals, we all pulled together and cooperated enough to produce this book. A very special thanks goes to Darcy Frank and Adam Stone, for services rendered over and above the call of duty. Without them, the book would never have been completed on time. The most significant and helpful person on the SAGA staff is unquestionally Mr. Grabowski. This book cou19 never have been started or competed without him, from his contacts at Root Studios to those at Jostens, for all of his time, dedication, and understanding, I wish to thank our advisor and my good friend, Mr. Dennis Grabowski.
