Table of Contents J \- QJ E E :J V") Walking into school the first day and seeing old and new friends, one question always popped into mind, "Did you have a nice summer?" It was then followed up with, "Well. what did you do?" The instant reply was always, "Noh" and "Not much." but we knew that everyone at one time or another during the summer did something. Junior Kris Long took up a ho.bby called ultralighting. She said it is similar to hang gliding. She became interested when her brother tried it and she hod her chance to do it this summer at the Council Bluffs airport. Junior Jeana Ulmer walked beans on her aunt and uncle's farm. She also babysat and made about $300. Some were involved in unique adventures, while for others vacation didn't consist of getting away from school. Some girls diligently practiced for cheerleoding. and Porn Pon or sports. And the boys "worked out" for upcoming sports. Sophomore Unchu Kong said that she spent her summer at Porn Pon practices and managed to find time to do some swimming. "I worked out with weights at school, home and Nautilus." junior James 13aotz said. Senior Kim 13ockert and sophomore Erin O'Grody both said that their summer was spent ploying softball . "I mostly ployed baseball," junior Steve Koehler said. Some hod goals for the summer to make money. Senior Rod Nichols worked at 13udget Rent-a-Car. Other jobs ranged from fast food to construction, but all were a beneficial way to l~eep busy. Senior Melinda Price held down two jobs. She life-guarded at Wilson and spent her time working at McDonald's. "I mostly worked at Tish's Eats and Treats," junior Cheri Moore said. Junior 13onnie Kesselring said that she worked at Omaha Western Printing during the summer. To some, summer vocation meant on actual vacation. Whether it was a visit to the nearest amusement pork or an outof-state trip. Many students chose thi·s for their break from school. Moore took a trip to Okoboji for Porn Pon comp and visited Adventureland . Senior Kevin Mower said he went to Los Vegas to visit relatives. 4Summer (t/t .. bunt," Boys involved in track attended the State Pentathalon meet at Ankeny, Iowa. They went on their own time to compete, during the summer. Senior Rick Taylor practices for competition in the hig h jump. Junior Gory King said that he traveled to Texas to visit relatives and also sow a Houston Astros game. Lost but not least, there were those who just "bummed" around. Senior Rusty Armstrong said, "I just did a lot of lounging around." These people practiced the art of sleeping until noon, to its fullest extent. "I got hool~ed on soaps when I was in the hospital for my appendix surgery," senior Tonya 13ell said. She added that her favorites are "The Young and the Restless," "All My Children, " and "General Hospital." Junior Patty Vogt underwent on operation to straighten the bones in herfoot. She spent the better half of her summer resting her foot and lounging around . As students watched August come to an end, some were even excited and preparing for school to begin. Vogt said that she was looking forw ard to her classes and couldn't wait until school began . Copy by Jill Carstens Two m embers of the camping club.

"My lost weel~ of summer w as spent school-shopping and lost m inute errondrunning," said senior Cheryl Si tzler. No sooner hod school started than things began to buzz both inside a nd outside Tee Joy. With Homecoming just around the corner, the Jocl~ets started to wonder who would be crowned queen and who's the special someone that they would be dancing with the next night. It wasn't much later and Snoboll was held one very cold and snowy evening on December 1 7 . When Snoboll ended we could hardly wait for Twirp. There was quite a d ifference between Prom and Twirp but no difference in the memories they provided. Twirp was Morch 24, and Prom was April 27 . "It's a good chance to see the other side of people outside of on academic setting ," said junior P.icl~ Smith. Thunderous cheers and music shool~ the rafters of the Jocl~et field house more than once. Applause for guest speol~ers and coaches alike joined in the rocl~et .

Students who were able to venture from the classroom, were able to attend a day of fun and games at the Trodes and Industry car bosh. And someone was generous enough to lend his stereo. Students were able to listen to music while they participated or just watched. The car bosh was the first activity to commence the Homecoming festivities . A pep assembly on Friday, charged students up for the game that night against Millard South. Junior Jim Pauly said that Homecoming was special to him because of the 14-13 score of the game and the way principal Gaylord Anderson and football coach 13ill Carlson led the cheers with the audience at the pep assembly. The dance was another aspect of Homecoming. From the softspoken words of Journey singing the theme "Faithfully", to the heavy metal sounds of Quiet P.iot, everyone fell into step. The dance brought both couples and singles . Junior Tommy Liddicl~ commented that the theme of the dance was very special, she considered it one of her favorite songs. Sophomore James White said, "It was pretty good for my first high school dance." "It gave me a chance to be with the person that I wanted to be with", junior Steph Desantiago said. Participation was also a l~ey to Homecoming . The bond and Porn Pon girls marched along with a steady beat, while the court and cheerleaders followed. The Student Council "Godmobile" couldn't have gone unnoticed, they, in their own way, displayed their school spirit. Activities Director Don Moxley said that approximately 1200 people turned out for the game. Most were there to cheer on the Jackets.

Watching familiar faces turn into nothing short of royalty, audiences of the foll ploy "Once Upon A Mattress", found themselves tol~en in by the continual witty antics that the cost produced. Junior Jocl~ie Holl, who ployed Lady Lorl~in said, "I'd try not to breol~ . it was hard but I didn't crocl~ ." She said that at every performance she knew people in the front row, but she l~ept from laughing. The actors displayed elaborate, glittery costumes and the boys in the cast didn't even seem to mind wearing tights. "It gave me a chance to show off my masculine legs," senior Kirk Madsen, who ployed Prince Dauntless, said. With every turn in the story, came another hilarious predicament. Laughter and giggles came from all over the auditorium. Junior Michelle [3entz said that the laughter came in spurts. Many of the giggles centered around the l~ing, ployed by junior Mori~ Smith, who wasn't able to speol~ . but did his shore in communicating . The young maidens were sure of that. Viewers of the production, especially those in the front row, will probably remember the "moot" scene. This scene featured junior Kathy "Princess Winnifred" Pierson, who continually fell into the moot, because of her clumsiness and unprincess-lil~e behavior. Just when everyone who occupied seats in the front row dried off, another splash and spray of water come from the notorious moot.

Fall Play 11 c c 0 c V) Although the picture of spring sl<iirts brought visions of sunshine and warmth, the weather outside said otherwise with ice storms, chilly winds and lots and lots of snow. For some the week before Snoboll could not go by fast enough but for others it was going by too fast. Although senior Morty Edwards asked junior Paulo Grown to Snoboll three weeks in odvon(;:e, neither of them hod their outfits by that Tuesday prior to the dance. Gut in comparison, junior Gob Demming did not ask junior Steph DeSontiogo until the Monday before the dance and yet both of them already hod their outfits by the next day. Perhaps the emphasis on not being ready was toking the excitement out of the first formal dance of the school year. Well, with sophomore Tracy Hodge, who was going with junior Kip Peterson, the excitement was still alive and yet scary because as she said, "It's my first formal dance, ever!" Many girls would hove given anything to trade their high heels in for a pair of boots on the night of Snoboll. Running from the house to the car was a trick in itself. The technique of mountain climbing was perfected to a tee. If students hod to go somewhere else before going to the dance, to have more pictures tal~en and more time for the flowers to wilt, they were in for a long evening . "Getting here early helped me bear the cold, so I didn't hove to walk for," senior Deb Heistand said. Once arriving at the dance, it was pretty much smooth sailing. No more giant snow drifts to plow through and no more 100 mile-on-hour winds to deal with. Not many attended the formal dance without getting their pictures tol<ien. Pictures were once again tol<ien by Gob Pyles. in a winter evening setting . After pictures , the dancing began . Once getting out on the dance floor, stud~nts began seeing all their friends .

As I entered the gym I could hear the usual roar of laughter, sounds of chattering friends finding somewhere to sit, and even the bond worming up to ploy the school fight song. The Porn Pon girls performed, the cheerleaders did a cheer, Cooch 13ill Carlson led us in a cheer and the fieldhouse once again overflowed with enthusiasm. "Pep assemblies help boost school spirit and get the team ready to ploy boll," sophomore Curtis Prudhome said . "13efore the Homecoming game the pep assembly united the student body and told the football players that we were behind them no matter what," said junior Jeff Kindschuh . "This year's pep assemblies weren't always what one might consider peppy. Some of the afternoon assemblies were quite dead . No one seemed to be fired up for the night's game," said sophomore Craig Jostorff. "Assemblies ore beher in the morning because there is more participation," said junior Monico Reid . Afternoon assemblies hove proved to hove less participation because students leave for worl~ and some sl~ip the assemblies and go home.

I started down the student-filled corridors toward the fieldhouse. This assembly wasn't going to be just another pep assembly, but on all-school school assembly to honor both faculty and students for outstanding performances in school and out of school.

V) It sometimes become very difficult for those who tool~ courses which required a great amount of time and hard worl~ . Students who attempted to do both found themselves overloaded. Many students often spent up to three hours each night doing homeworl~ and studying. With the noticeable demand for more worl~ , students sometimes found time to do nothing else. Senior Mori~ Hansen said that he studied about three hours a day. "I guess I studied between two and three hours," senior Cheryl Sitzler said. Tests also were a major port of a student's grade. How well they did on tests, showed the student's l~nowledge of the subject. English teacher Jane Howard said she gave major tests every month and quizzes usually every day. Junior Lester Johnson, who was in the college prep curriculum , said that in some classes he tool~ tests every weel~ while in others he hod exams about every two weel~s. With classes and school being an every day port of life for most, some students found it to be a monotonous, day-in-day-out sort of thing . Others, though, sow their schooling as a qualification for adulthood and success in the future. "I felt my science and moth courses benefitted toward my future plans in a possible career of medical record administration," junior Lisa Kannas said .

Once a year the Jacl~ettes get to experience what the Jacl~ets go through all year. This role reversal event was Twirp. Twirp lasted from March 19, through the 2J, with the dance being held on the 24. During the wee!~ , each day had a theme and every lunch hour had special activities . Monday was inside-out sweat day and Tuesday went bod~ three decodes to the fun-filled 50's. Wednesday was a day when one could wear just about anything and still be categorized as a punl~er , a valley girl, or a concert lover. Although Thursday was not a typical beach day, shorts, sunglasses, and beach towels were seen all over campus . On Friday, the students and some of the teachers went bad~ in time almost two thousand years to the days of the toga. Sheets ranging from traditional white to the Peanuts Gong were seen everywhere. The Powder Puff football game was canceled because the fields were too wet. The dance on Saturday, March 24, was held in the fieldhouse. Student Council members decorated it earlier that day with streamers . Disc jocl~ey Kevin Kracl~er of Midwest Music provided the music which included a video screen with different group videos. Senior Scott Knoer was crown-ed King of Twirp. His escort was graduate Sue Hokenson . Junior Mori~ Smith, escorted by junior Potty Vogt, was crowned Prince of Twirp. Sophomore Jeff Loml~ins was escorted by junior Monica Reid when he was crowned Dul e of Twirp. "It was really different and neat for the girl to pay for everything," said sophomore Pam 13eoll, who tool~ senior Derr cl~ Williams. "It's sur.prising how expensive a dote can be," junior Tommy Liddicl~ said. Twirp w eek was a time when one could give in to the craziness and get out of the monotony of school life.

Fenders. - Tryouts for "An Evening With Fresh Aire" began in Morch, but before this, a lot of thinl~ing hod already gone into the ploy. One thing for sure, this production was to be a final tribute to someone who had dedicated J1 years of his life to Tee Jay, Mr. Fanders. The production consisted of a two-act program with all l~inds of performances . They ranged from dances to mimes to interpreters. Senior Cindy Sierra, who was on interpreter, said that the ploy was oil about life, about growing up, learning and maturing. "Emotional" could have been a l~ey word in describing this special production. With each slide that appeared on the screen, a new emotion would enter into both the performer and viewer's mind and body. Sophomore Jeff Loml~ins said that it mode him feel good to l~now that Mr. Fanciers would go away with good feelings of Tee Joy.

The theme of Prom was 'Just Between You and Me,' and the bond "Slicl'i" provided the music. Junior class officers and other junior class members decorated the UNO f3ollroom on Friday around 1 p.m. On Friday, a lot of the students checl'ied out of school early or they just did not bother to come. For the girls, the main reason was to get their hair done, hove a manicure, or just rest up for the big night. The guys, on the other hand, had to wash their cars and try and get them into better shape than they hod been all year. Prom Queen was senior Tom my Shomblen and King was senior Don Swotel'i. Juniors Paulo Brown and Kendall Clemens were crowned Princess and Prince, respectively. After Prom, most couples went out to eat. Popular restaurants were Mr. Cs, Brother Sebastian's and the Top of the World . Once dinner was over, many of the students went home and changed into 'normal' clothes and then left again for a game of bowling or to a party. If they were traveling east on !3roodwoy they w ere most likely stopped by police roadblocks . The police were checking for drunl'i drivers. "Prom was super neat," said junior Margaret Davi s. "I really hod a great time."

After 12 years of hard worl ~ they were finally at the top. Graduat ion seemed far away in t he distant futu re as summer ended and school began. Dur ing the first few weeks of sc ool not many seniors were thinking of future plans. but as the year progressed. the prospect of life after school was con - sidered . "I plan on settling into a p lace of my own and finding a full - t ime job and maybe toke some n ight school classes." sa id Chr is Andrus . The options ava ilable were narrowed down to a possible four: college, a tull- time job. settling down and starting a famil y, or the armed forces. For those college bound students there still remained the quest ion of: what college to attend, how to pay for It and what to major in? "I w ill probably attend the University of Io w a . It hos a good computer pro - gram," soid Cyn di Pierce. For tho se job -hunting sen i o rs, where to apply, and how to m a nage all that m oney that's going to be rolling in became a major concern . For some. m arria ge was in the near f u tur e . Sen ior Sherri McGar ity Franl~ s was one such student. "Marriage and school weren't as hard as many people think, as long as you have support from your famil y , fr iends, and hu sband ," sa id Sherri. And those persons who chose to "be all they could be" were faced w ith the cho ice of Army, Navy, A ir Fo rce. or Mar ines and where to be stat ioned. Sen ior Steve Lincoln joined the Army Reserves In the summer of '8.3. "Seventy -five percent of my college w ill be pa id tor, plus they w lll g ive me a $1 000 bonus and $ 72 for work ing 2 days out of every month.

Colleges could buy the names of students that had tol~en the ACT or the PSAT. "About 70 scholarship applications from colleges ore received through the year," said Judy Stilwell, counselor. Returning scholarship applications from students on time was a main concern. Although underclassmen could not apply for scholarships, they were enc.ouraged to tall~ to college representatives about their future. To help students decide on which college to attend, career days were planned . On September 27, 198J, 61 college representatives expected the arrival of students for College Day. Representatives from as far away as the Fashion and Art Institute of Dallas, Texas, to as close as Iowa Western Community College attended . "I was only impressed by the presenters from smaller colleges; they seemed more interested," said Chris Corter, senior. Post-High School Planning brochures were received by students as they entered the Abraham Lincoln gymnasium. Representatives handed out pamphlets of information and answered questions.

"I hove learned a lot academically and also a great deal about myself," said Sande Larsen. "I om going to start nursing school in September, 1984. This summer June through August, I hove to tol~e Ch,emistry. So I'm going to worl~ and tol~e a breol~ from school next semester." Getting a head start on college was just one reason for early graduation . "I pion to move to Colorado in February, or Morch, to build up residency so that I w ill hopefully be able to attend a college in Colorado," said Shon Groves. Other purposes for previous mid-year gradua tion included getting a jump on job-hunting , getting married, and just ta ing a breol~ from school , according to Kelly S,cott, counselor. Attendance was required at all rehearsals in order to march with the rest of he class. "If it w asn't for the expense of traveling, then I would really lil~e to march .

For many seniors this was the lost thing they will remember about Tee Joy and their senior year. On Moy 22, 1984, at eight clocl~ J26 seniors marched down the aisle in the Council l31uffs fieldhouse to get their diplomas. This was the lost time that the class of 1984 would be together as a whole and the tears that flowed were proof that the seniors l~new it. It was a sad but joyful time for the seniors. Some l~new exactly what they were going to do, while some were uncertain what would happen. Each senior was stunned to hear his or her name called as he was standing on the platform . Their diploma was awarded, they shool~ hands, and their picture was tal~en all in a matter of seconds . With a turn of the tassels, they were no longer students, they were alumni . Each graduate will remember that night for the rest of their lives because this was the night they tool~ their first step.

Quietly, the office aide approached the teacher with a green pass in hand, a name was on that pass and someone would be making an unexpected trip to the office. Everyone was interrupted from their train of thought, whispers ran wildly through the classroom . "After the aide wall~s in with the pass my imagination runs wild," commented junior Lori'Neumann . While everyone was imagining the o~e and reason for the pass, one brave young man got up from the bacl~ of the room and decides he will be the one to breal~ the code. Nonchalantly, he wall~ed to the front of the room and decided to get a pe~!~ at the pass. 13ut he failed, the teacher Junior Gary King looks on w ith curiosity as Larry Carlson tries to concentrate on his Eng lish assignm e nt. had already placed the pass in her pocket. The m ission was a fai lure. The quiet g irl in back was w ondering if they. found out about her signing her ow n referral, then there's the ch nl~ boy in front wishing he hadn't been late from lunch , and there's always the rowdy individual who bluntly requested if the pass w as his . The minutes turned into hours as the poss rested quietly in the left pocl~et of the teacher's trousers. The class hod lost its concentration and its get up and go to learn. A few m inutes before the class period was over, the teacher read the name on the pass . One shrie ~ and many sighs of relief filled the air. Then the bell rang and we were off to another class .

Poem by Lori Neumann Oesides being a member of Concert Choir, Jefferson Edition, Porn Pon, and Student Council, junior Lori Neumann found time to do what she lil~ed best, write poetry. "It's not always easy to find time to write, whenever I get a few lines in my head, I jot them down then I go bocl~ and finish it later," said junior Lori Neumann . Lori won the youth category in the Westfoir Poetry Contest, out of hundreds of entries her poem "Pegasus" finished first. Lori hos hod several of her poems published. The Nonpareil printed a few, the "Iowa Students Writing Gook' printed one, a nd the "Write Touch," a literary magazine for high school students printed three of her poems. "In the fu ture I'd lil~e to get more of my rl~ published and eventually go into journalism as a career," said Lori .

Junior Diane Clarl<1 said, "Worl<1ing in a fast food place allows me to meet a lot of new people, the only drawback is the disorderly people." Another common place where students worl<1ed was the local grocery store. Many were grocery baggers but it gave some experience to those students who enjoyed the extra freedom and responsibility of having a job. "While most jobs hold a lot of responsibility, worl<1ing in a grocery store is very much the same except the major responsibility is toward the customer, " junior P.andy !3axter said . Some desirable jobs many students hoped to get but were often difficult to grasp, were those worl<1ing in a clothing store or a nice comfortable office. Getting a head start in a job co-op class was the best w ay to start a career. Senior Kim Harm said that jobs were not hard to find if you worl<1ed in Office Education. To students, these jobs were common ways of paying for their car, clothes and other expenses that became an every day port of life. Yet, some jobs existed that were unusual and extraordinary. Such as junior Chelle Davidson who tra - veled with a carnival throughout the summer. She said, "My father is a concessions manager on a carnival and in the summer, I work and travel with him ."

I It's beginning to get difficult to tell the difference between girl's and guy's styles. With guys wearing earrings and pink shirts and girls wearing ties and men's long jackets. everything's going co-ed . "It's fine as long as each person wears the styles in good taste and according to how they were presented, " senior Rhonda Neill said. It used to be so "out" for guys to wear ties on any but "necessary" occasions . Now, guys wear them to accent on outfit or spiff up a pair of jeans. It went "ditto" for the girls. They, too, wore ties to bring out the color and flair of on outfit. Senior Robert Leitz said, "Ties odd dignity to people whether they ore girls or boys." As for dressing up, girls sometimes wore miniskirts sometimes to dances or just as a popular outfit for weekends. Junior Lisa Harrison said that the minisl"iirt was brought back from the 1960' s because of the need for a change of pace. Several styles of pants were the vogue of the season . They went from wall"iing shorts to the cropped below the knee lool"i, to the full-length slacks . The woll"iing shorts were usually of corduroy or wool and were worn with wool argyle or coble-l"init socks. "I wouldn't wear woll"iing shorts, they're fine on other people but I would feel uncomfortable," junior Shelli Abshier said. 131ouses and tops were as different as each student at Tee Jay. Lace and ruffles were still "in", but so were the bright prints of red, yellow, aqua and hot pinl"i. Polka dots and stripes went along with these bold colors . "I think the brighter colored blouse hos a preppy lool"i to it and odds color to any outfit," sophomore Down Turk said. Guys often wore the college look of oxford buttonedcollor ·shirts in many colors - but both genders shored the some lil"ie for crew neck sweaters. 13ig and boggy with argyle designs and bright colors, they were often worn over polos and oxfords. Junior Dione Clark said, "I find the bulky sweater look more comfortable than the tighter sweaters." An outfit isn't complete without the final touch, shoes . With girls, it seemed that pumps were a favorite when dressing up. Penny loafers, top-slders and flat moccassin shoes were also W<;)rn with a variety of outfits. Guys also took an interest in the fashionable lool"i of penny loafers and top-siders. Guys and girls alike often went bocl"i to the most comfortable pair of shoes they owned, their tennis shoes. "Penny loafers are a sign of the well-dressed man, they add a touch of class," senior Scott Knoer sold. Copy by Jill Carstens Prom becomes a hlghllght of almost every girl's school year.

This year the food business has shown a slight change in menus at some of our favorite restaurants, fast and otherwise. Creative, new dishes have been added, as well as small price changes that have affected all our jacket pockets. A few of the new items included the salad-in-a-pocket at Burger King , the dessert pizza at Valentino's, stuffed baked potatoes and apple dumplings at Wendy's and the Swiss mushroom burger at P.unza . Of course, the war of burgers still continued between McDonalds and Burger King . While P.onald McDonald fried his burgers at 39¢. the Burger King flamed "The Switch ls On." A switch or two had been made in the Jacket school cafeteria too. Since most students' lunches consisted of a hamburger and fries or various other fast foods , the Tee Jay cafeteria's lunch lines began to decrease. The many hungry Jacl~ets were found , instead , feeding their appetites at nearby McDonald's and Little Kings or restaurants within driving distance. Due to the decline in lunch sales. a new idea was put into action. Hamburgers and fries at Tee Jay! Every day, one of the two cafeteria lines was devoted to the favorite suNeyed fast food of Tee Jay students ; hamburgers . "I thinl~ it is a neat idea that they hove hamburgers there (the cafeteria) everyday," said sophomore Kristie Bird . "I think more students ore eating here now that hamburgers are offered," said junior Kip Peterson. "I can honestly say, it's a little crowded down there." Copy by Chris Meyer "Col~e is the best cause it tastes so good," said driving instructor Sue Tyler. Mud pies didn't appear in the top ten of pies , but Mississippi Mud did .

Following first ranl~ed "Footloose" was several other movies aimed at teens . Among those were two movies that starred teen heart throb Tom Cruise. Cruise was placed first by Tee Jay students as their favorite actor. For most teenagers watching Tom Cruise in his poignant romantic dramas was lil~e lool~ing into a mirror. Almost everyone would have recognized part of their high school days by watching Tom Cruise act. "Tom Cruise had a way of filling theatres, either through his crazy antics or good lool~s " said senior Nell Neal. The female star who finished on top of the Tee Jay polls was "Terms of Endearment" star Debra Winger.

Lool<iing bock on the '50s we sow guys in high-top sneol<;- ers and leather jocl<iets. The '60s brought to mind girls in mini-.Sl<iirts and bizarre colors. Glancing down the Tee Joy halls in '84, a combination of all four could be seen. A favorite among the girls: earrings! and very large at that. Earrings in red, yellow, blue, purple, green, just about any color imaginable. The sizes varied from large to extra large and the ear could seldom be seen through the colors . To accent these earrings something was needed. Above the ear haircuts come to the rescue . Junior Cheri Moore tool<; the "ear" cut one step further and dyed the sides a dorl<i shade of purple. Cloires, at the Westroods, was a favorite among the girls for accessories, earrings, and purses , but more and more the guys began to swarm to this tiny corner store. "I got my ear pierced to be different," said senior John Meyers. The left ear was usually pierced with a diamond stud, lightening bolt and later, a dongle. Senior Regino Greco said, "I thinl<i it's neat; a different change in style." "Today's fads ore cool!" junior Jeff Miller said. Jeff hod his left ear double pierced and was also the proud owner of a "punl<;" haircut, shorter on top and longer on the bottom . Sophomore Tom Jensen thought guys with earrings should be lined up and shot. And junior Lisa Kannas emphasized the fact that it's different. Junior Troy Raybourn w as also one of the few and proud to possess a tri-level 'V ' cut. "I hove a lot of nicl<inomes lil<ie 'V -heod", Troy said. 'V ' cuts become popular among most who were daring enough to try something new. Loter in the year a bleached top, much longer in front, also became a popular haircut among guys. Neither of these styles seemed to appeal to sophomore Lester Johnson, how ever. Lester chose a shoved arrow to accent the upper left side of his head . "My cousin had his done, so I d ecided to try it. I wonted to be different," Les ter said .

Mini-courses were a way to end the year, feeling good about school and breol~ing the monotony of assignments and exams . It was the reword for oil the hard worl~ students put forth since August. Junior Jeni Lines said that she liked mini-courses because of the different things she could do without having to go to the regular classes. These unusual classes consisted of oil sorts of activities ranging from motorcycle safety to worl~ing with crofts . Junior Wendy Goldsberry said she chose racquetball because it sounded lil~e fun . She said, "I never tried it before." Not only was each class fun, but the students learned something from it. Students could choose what they wonted to tol~e and they spent the lost eight days of school doing something they enjoyed or trying something new. Junior Monico P.eid said she learned through business tours, the different opportunities for jobs that were out there.

It meant school beyond the classroom . "Clubs give students something to lool'i forward to," said junior Ra_g dy !3axter. To show school spirit and achieve this involvement, many students became active in one or more of the many clubs and organizations Tee Jay had to offer. Clubs were early mornings, late nights, jobs to pay for the added expenses and many new-found friends . !3eing involved tool'i lots of worl'i and had its price, but it produced good results and strong friendships to lost a lifetime. "It helps the school . I lil'ie to get involved," said junior William Arellano. Many clubs were directly in the eye of the Tee Jay publ ic. The applause of the crowd at a Porn Pon half-time performance, for example, or an lronmon meet well done mode the extra hours worth the effort. !3esid es provid ing enterta inment, clubs also brought large amounts of recognition to the student body and Tee Jay .

It was almost impossible to com e up w ith the money for these items. especially around the holidays, bu t somehow Tee Joy students managed to scrape up that last fifty cents for a box of M&M's or a cupca l'ie. Perhaps the people most responsibl e for the organization of these clubs were the sponsors . They were always attending practices and performances or doing some sort of homeworl'i on the next project. They made the group "ticl'i" and often deseNed more recognition than they received .

When they were compelled by loud music and twenty-one pair of legs to regain their seats and view the halftime entertainment. Twenty-one pair of legs and loud music were all props of the Porn Pon squad. · Porn Pon squad members participated in contests with the bond, performed § at half-time extravaganzas, marched in 3 parades, and promoted school spirit at .g pep assemblies . :§ The squad tried a new l'iind of leader- .6 ship. Instead of a captain and a co- § captain, they tried a tri-captoin set up. €. The captains, seniors who hod been on the squad for three years , were seniors Kim Harm, Cindy Sierra, and Denise Kennedy. The squad also selected a secretary-treasurer position filled by senior Lauro Jensen . During the summer the girls attended the Notional Cheerleoding Association Porn Pon Comp at Lake Ol'ioboji . They learned new steps and competed for several awards . Those who attended comp brought home a spirit sticl'i and the most spirited squad award. Porn Pon sponsor Don Hansen said, "I thought the girls performed extremely well." Besides performing , the squad helped with Special Olympics, and the C.13 . P-eloys . In March, the girls sponsored a clinic for junior high and high school girls. They taught a dance, l'iicl'is, and ways to stretch out so muscles wouldn't be pulled . The clinic was a way to mol'ie money and hove an opportunity to meet girls who wonted to try out for next year's squad . "No one ever realizes the hard worl'i and effort put into being a member of this squad," said junior Lori Neumann . 1.'.10 Clubs Fall Cheerleaders: (top to bottom) Kim Abshier. Lori Hall .

"I feel the girls worl'ied hard all year to support school activities and that is very important in boosting school moral," said Spirit Club sponsor Beverly Shirley. Spirit Club members attended varsity football , bosl'ietball, and trocl'i events during the school year. To raise money the Spirit Club found several options such as carnation soles, bol'ie soles, and cupcol'ies with messages . With the money they earned they purchased polo shirts imprinted with the words "Tee Joy Spirit Club." The club _chose co-presidents , juniors Sue Tellgren and Peggy Hess. The fifteen girls who participated in Spirit Club were responsible for the locl'ier decorations and the spirit hoop at the football games. People who participated in Spirit Club received little recognition but their efforts were appreciated by the athletes and their coaches . Cheerleading Getting to school at 8 : 10 was a tosl'i for some people, but not for the Tee Jay cheerleaders who hod to be at school by 6:.30 for practice. The girls came in pajamas , with hot rollers in hair, or curling irons in hand. "To be a member of the squad, a girl must obtain a "(" average, display enthusiasm, hove good jumps and a very loud voice," said sophomore Tracy Hodges. For the foll season, two captains were chosen , seniors Sandy Waltrip and Cheryl Sitzler. The winter squad chose captains, seniors Sandy Waltrip, Lori Hall, and Kim Anderson. The foll cheerleaders attended the NCA (Notional Cheerleoding Association) summer camp at Iowa State. During the days they were at camp, the girls learned jumps, chants, and mounts to give them new and different ideas to assist them during the school year. "Being a port of the squad gave me a chance to meet new people and get involved in school activities ," said sophomore Jill Aldredge. "Next year there will only be one squad for fall and winter sports, because of the ordering and learning problems that the winter cheerleaders were facing, " said cheerleoding sponsor Don Hansen. The letters PPl3 and CLP don't mean a lot to the average student, but to a Porn Pon girl or cheerleader it meant decorated locl'iers, gifts, cords, and notes. The letters PPl3 and CLP stood for Porn Pon buddies and cheerleading pols. At the beginning of the year the girls chose names at random and l'iept it secret as long as possible. The girls received notes, flowers, and gifts to help boost squad spirit and l'ieep everyone involved.

The Booster Club was a "support group" for parents to get involved. The purpose of the group was to provide parent, student and teacher communication and participation in the support of all student activities. The Booster Club held meetings every third Monday of the month. A brief program was planned for each meeting . Officers for the 198J-84 Booster Club were: President Joy Sowers , Vicepresident Gaylord Anderson, Second Vice-president Don Moxley, Secretory Pat Everett, and Treasurer Eileen Carlson . Copy by Barb Pruett 140 Clubs Principal Gaylord Anderson prepares to announce junior Barb Pruett so she can introduce Marc Jaccard at the drug awareness assembly. OE "Office Education was a very helpful program to those who were interested in gaining experience in the office world," said Office Education instructor Julie O'Doherty. To be a part of the O.E. program a student must have had overage grades, good attendance, and three teacher recommendations. "Finding the jobs for the students hasn't been much of a problem because of the help we receive from contacts in the commun~ty and help from the Iowa Job Service, " said Mrs. O'Doherty. Officers for the 198J-84 Office Education Club were seniors : President Denise Kennedy, vice president Sandy Joens, secretary Trudy Daub, and treasurer Lori Hall. Kim Harm was chosen as the Office Education Outstanding Student of the Year by a class vote. The class made a trip to Des Moines for the state contest. Thirteen of the fifteen girls in O.E. attended the contest. This was Julie O'Doherty's eighteenth year as O .E. instructor. She's also A.L.'s O .E. program instructor. Copy by 13orb Pruett P.U.S.H. Project P.U.S.H.? Many students weren't exactly sure what was meant by P.U .S.H. P.U.S.H. was an abbreviation for Prevention Using Student Help. The group was trying to prevent younger l~ids from experimenting with drugs and alcohol . The group originated at Kirn Junior High about three years ago. Since then groups similar to Project P.U .S.H. have been sprouting up all across the United States. Members of the T.J. group visited elementary schools in the area . While at the schools the members performed a sl~it aimed at younger children . After the sl~it was _ over the P.U.S.H. members brol~e the large group of l~ids up into smaller groups . Then they provided the l~ids with facts and personal experiences . Several member of P.U .S.H. attended the International Conference on Drugs in Atlanta, Georgia . Junior l3arb Pruett was the only participant from Tee Jay. "We'd lil~e to be able to create a drug-free society, but if we only help one person it mol~es it all worthwhile," said junior 13orb Pruett. Copy by Laura Faust and l3arb Pruett Outdoor Recreation Club The Outdoor Recreation Club spent their time getting close to nature. They hil~ed, camped and loved the outdoors . The only requirements for being a member of the club was that they needed to fill out an application, have parent permission if they weren't eighteen, and pay a $J.50 yearly fee. Officers for the club were sophomore Paula Pogge, president; senior Tony Isom, vice president; sophomore Marla Richardson , secretary; a nd sophomore Stephanie Powers, treasurer.

It was none other than that muscle-man on the television show "The 'A' Team," Mr. T. When Mr. T came into town, he rode In the Council 131uffs Annual Pride Week Parade. He also made arrangements to visit special children and spol~e against the abuse of drugs, sponsored by 13-MAD (13ody-Mind Against Drugs). Senior Nell Neal sang the National Anthem for one of the rallies, and in return, received a monsterous hug from Mr. T. While riding in the parade, Mr. T clasped his hands together and repeatedly said, "I love you. God bless you ." After the parade, Mr. T shook hands with the students in the Tee Jay band . During Mr. T's speech against drugs at both Abraham Lincoln and Westfair, his sincerity was evident by small tears trickling down his face. Mr. T said that coming to Council 131uffs was one of the most emotionally straining things he has ever encountered . He also explained that the letter 'T' in his name means tender, not tough.

The new program, instituted by the Iowa state legislature, enables students to get up to $500 if they have taken enough science and math courses. A total of seven units (years), including no less than three units in chemistry, advanced chemistry, physics, advanced physics, or the third and fourth year of the sequential mathematics program. so new. "Another unusual thing about the grant is that financial need is not considered," Mrs. Stilwill said. The main reason for the grant, cited by lawmakers, is to encourage enrollment in math and science courses. "I think it's terrific," Terry Todd, science teacher, said. His physics classes have experienced an increase in enrollment in the last few years. Jack Rosenthal, math instructor, also feels that thr> program is a "positive step", however his classes haven't experienced that much of an increase in enrollment. Two college prep students who were asked about the new math and science program weren't aware of it. "I don't think it will get more students to sign up for more (science and math) courses," Laura Jensen, senior, said. "If a student doesn't want to take a class, he won't," Ray Riedinger, senior, said. II I ~,q~ -~ ·' Vol. 62, No. 1 Thomas Jefferson High School, Council Bluffs, Iowa 51501 Sept. 30, 1983 According to Judy Stilwill, counselor, the program was just instituted during the last session of the General Assembly through the Iowa College Aid Commission. Mrs. Stilwill pointed out that few students and teachers know about the grant, because it is Hardiman brings changes to 'old home' One of the new faces here is also a familiar one. It is that of Assistant Principal Steve Hardiman. • "Like a boy coming home," Mr. Hardiman commented about being back at Tee Jay this year as the assistant principal in charge of discipline. He is a 1969 Tee Jay graduate, and he also was a science teacher from 197 6- 1982. "He is very familiar with the students and they are more familiar with him," commented Principal Gaylord Anderson. Among the. d i s c i p 1 i n e changes this year since Mr. Hardiman has been here is not being able to sign out without p a rent permission, even if a student is 18 or older. Another regulation that has changed from last year is the unexcused tardies. After the second unexcused tardy the student receives a detention. Mr. Hardiman was the head wrestling coach and also an assistant coach for football while he was a teacher. Cla~ses he taught were Human Biology, Biology and ·oe \'(\e \(\sv.

Two Editorial 'Ihe Signal .Sept. 30, 1983 The Bear Hug Students -give up sign out right By Jim Hug Year by year, the administration seems to tighten its grip on our Council Bluffs community high schools. For instance high school students were converted to a seven period day, last year. Students were required to t a k e planned courses of study, asked for more credits to graduate, and short day was taken away from sophomores and juniors. It had become quite evident the adminsitration was cracking the whip. Most recently, Principal Gaylord Anderson and assistant principals Steve Hardiman and Don Moxley decided to strip students 18- years··and-oldcr of their right to sign out without parent permission . The reason for this, according to Mr. Anderson, was because " too many students were using us," along with the idea parents want to keep track of their children .

Thank you, Co-editors-in-chief Sept. 30, 1983 Feature The Signal Three Same school has new look , · HEH f 7. w4S ONL y TE.!>T!N&! By Rich Hunt and Jill Stivers Many things change over the years. Tee Jay is no exception, over the summer the school took on a few changes of its own. Dorothy Morse, librarian, said that the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company (3M) installed a security system to stem the flow of books disappearing from the library. According to Mrs. Morse, the system has two gates, an entrance and an exit. The exit has a device to detect if a book has been checked out; if it hasn't a buzzer beeps. This will help keep books that are out of print and can't be replaced from being stolen . "Creighton and the University of Nebraska at Omaha had the same system installed, and they cut their book loss by 75 to 80 percent." Mrs. Morse said. Abraham Lincoln also had the 3M system installed. With a cost of $18,000-$20,000 the system is expected to pay for itself in a couple of years, Mrs. Morse added. Steve Hardiman, assistant principal, said, "It is a sad commentary on everyone that the library has to resort to these means to keep the books in the library." THE PHARMACY Changes have also come in the special education program. Some students who \Vere in programs at the Rose Kennedy school were transferred here. According to Krista Maxe, special education instructor, the main purpose of the program is to bring the students into an environment that is not segregated and to bring them into the working world. Room 215 has been remodeled for the program. "It's better for the group activities with the carpeting; it also cuts down on noise," Miss Maxe said. The school as a whole took on a new look, being completely painted this summer. "We are now enlarging the coaches' office in the boys' locker room and putting new doors on all outside entrances into the fieldhouse ," H ead Custodian Max McGee said . KENNY, Happy Birthday Pu kin.

Jacket gridders t with crosstown ri By Kirk Madsen ··we will have no problem getting up for this game. It is always the most physical and emotional game of the season," Assistant Football Coach John Kinsel said about tonight's contest against crosstown rival Abraham Lincoln. Tee J ay will host the Lynx tonight at 7:30 p.m. at Council Bluffs Stadium. "We have a lot of unity among the players and a strong wi ll to survive" is how Head Football Coach Bill Carlson described this year's squ ad. According to the third yea r head coach, the pl ayers go about things hard, knowing they have to in order to succeed. A Eter the first three games the J ackets' record was 1-2 with a 21-0 victory over Omaha North, ending a 15 game losing streak.

Mr. Emsick aclclecl that Senior Bart Taylor, a halfback, is one of his key pl ayers for the young Lynx, who are 1-2 with a 9-7 edging of St. Albert. The Yellowj ackets opened with a 13-12 loss to St. Alhcrt. Heading into the Tee Jay Invitational tomorrow at 9 a.m., Volleyball Coach Sharon Semler said, "This year will really be tough with Abraham Lincoln and Atlantic." Coach Semler said Tee Jay has won each invitational title since the tourney began three years ago. At the opening session of the tournament, Teri Dasovich, a 1982 graduate who was tragically killed in an automobile accident this past summer, will have her jersey number (24), retired. A new statistics board will also be presented in memory of Miss Dasovich. The Jackettes (1-5) had 13 girls attend volleyball camps this past summer.

Two Editorial The Signal October 14, 1983 The Bear Hug No soap creates messy situation By Jim Hug Getting to the men's restroom during a school day is a task in itself. An average high school student makes anywhere from one to three bathroom stops in a typical school day. Few teachers allow students to go during class even in e m e r ge n c y situations. Otherwise, if the student is in pretty good physical condition, he or she can sometimes make a pitstop during the five minute passi ng period. An embarrassing situation is the result. Most girls walk down the halls as if they don't have a care in the world, but then there is usually a good supply of soap in the girls' lavatory. .... a. bring some soap from home and keep it safely stored away in a locker. But don't tell anyone it's there. If somebody wants it bad enough, they may tear your locker door off to get to it. If you think you will have to visit the restrooms during the school day, try and put mother nature on a schedule in which these visits fa ll during a passing period. Policy locks out studious students Even if you are one of the select few and have gotten to the restroom, al I is lost when one looks to the sink and fi nds no soap. This is largely responsibk fo r the bathroom always being torn up. A football player doesn't stay composed when he hasn't noticed the lack of cleansing agents until it's too late and his girlfriend is waiting to hold hands down the hall . How many of you students have found yourselves coming to school early to get an assignment done, but have not been able to get into the building? That's be cause the doors to get in the building are not opened until 7 :55 a.m. Oh yes, you can get into the student lounge, cafeteria and gymnasium, but are these areas adding to one's education?

How many of you. have noticed the sign on the library door? '' L i b r a r y hours 7:30 a.m.-4 p.m." Dorothy Morse, librarian, said, "If students have an assignment to do, they must get a pass from another teacher and come through shipping (janitorial entrance)." Two years ago before the change from six to seven periods, homeroom did not begin until 8:25 a.rn. That gave a student more time to get work done, or ask teachers for extra help on an assignment. Why not change a teacher's work schedule to 7:45 a.m. until 3:45 p.m.? Te a c h e r s, administrators, is this a lot to ask for the purpose of- helping students with their education? Students patiently wait for the janitor to open the· doors leading to the main hall at the beginning of the school day.

"H e can't sit still; he's a very active boy," Mr. Harris sa id . According to Mrs. Harris, Carlos is not part of a student foreign exchange program. It's more like a family exchange program since the H arris's son is staying with Carlo's family in Spain. HARTER'S SERVICE and REPAIR AUTO REPAIRING OF ALL TYPES 2455-Sth Ave. 328-9526 Carlos described Spain as mountainous, sunny, green, crowded and has many large buildings. Carlos came to the United States, on . the recommendation of his sister, Sonya: who visited Tee 1 Jay as a foreign exchange stµdent during the 1980-81 school year. Life in SpaitJ, according to Carlos, is quite similar to life in America, but there are a few diffe rences. Differences Take a dri.ver's license for instance. One has to be 18 to acqui.re a license in Spain. Accordiiig to Carlos, it may cost up to $400. Another difference is the drinking age-in Spain there is none. Anyone is allowed to purchase alcohol in Spain. "The beer in Spain," Carlos commented, "is much stronger, even the Germans get drunk, because they are not used to the beer's strength." Carlos s a i d he misses watching soccer on television and 'real' Spanish omlets, which consist of eggs and potatoes.

Gallup, presented by the Quill and Scroll Society, and the All American award, given by tqe National Scholastic Press Association. Mark Leonard was managing editor of the newspaper. The paper also received an award from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association, which gave the staff the second highest rating in its evaluation - a first place certificate. This is the first year in the 30-40 year history of the Quill and Scroll competition that the George H. Gallup was awarded to a Tee Jay staff. Out of 475 entries only 80 school papers received this award this year. Each year the staff applies for different awards. For the George H. Gallup award the staff was given the award for its outstanding work on a sixpart curriculum series, which was run in last year's paper. Brian Woeppel and Gary Blackford, 1983 graduates, wrote the series. The paper was also evaluated on coverage, policy guidelines, writing and editing, display and design and business practices. The five different categories were worth a varying number of points \Uith a possible total of 1,000 points. The Signal received 929 points, according to Mr. Muehlig. "School papers from around the United States were judged by professional journalists and university professors from different parts of the country," Diane Roberts, Quill and Scroll office manager, said. The quality of papers was much higher this year. Usually only about 10 percent earn the Gallup award. According to the Quill and Scroll judge, "The Signal staff has some real strengths, especially in the coverage area. In general it appears to be a lively newspaper which serves its student body quite well." The NSP A gave the staff four out of the five possible marks of distinction to receive the All American Award . To earn the All American the staff needed to receive either four marks of distinction, or marks in all five areas. WE SILK-SCREEN YOUR CLUB NAME The staff received marks of distinction in coverage and content, writing and editing, design and photography, art and graphics. The single mark not received was on opinion content. AS WALKING ADVERTISEMENTS ON T-SHIRTS, JACKETS & CAPS THAT PEOPLE WEAR AND WEAR AND ISN'T THAT W HAT EXPOSURE IS ALL ABOUT?

But for Senior Jayne Surber and Junior Mike Madsen it is just a part of being in contention for the national waterskiing championship. In water ski jumping you are being pulled behind a boat going 30 m.p.h. Then you make a counter cut to pick up speed. (Counte,r cutting is cutting from one side of the boat to the other.) "This is where you pick up your speed," Surber said. The 'pop' When you hit the ramp, you spring off your legs to get the most distance you can. This is getting the "pop." Surber is currently ranked sixth in her age group in the nation with a jump of 107 feet. Madsen is ranked ninth in his age group in slalom and tenth in jumping. Slalom is skiing on one ski going t h r o u g h a special course. Mike's farthest jump is 135 feet, just seven feet short of the record in his division. Surber has been skiing since age four and competitively since age ten. Her first year she placed third in the nation. Mike has been skiing since age two. Practice for Surber means going to Des Moines all summer, practicing all day at Pickett Farm Beach Lake with coaches John and Jimmy Flemming. Madsen gets up at 5 a.m. to practice with his family on Carter Lake. After graduation Surber plans on attending college in Lousiana. This will enable her to ski all year. Nea.r mark In the Midwest, Madsen is at the top. The record for jumping in Madsen's division is 142 feet. Madsen's farthest jump in competition is 135 feet. The record 1s held by Sammy Devall. Madsen's sister, Sherry, commented, "He is at the top - right up there with the pros." To turn professional a skier needs to jump 126 feet. Madsen has already beaten that, but he has no intention of going pro. If he decided to, he would be ineligible to compete in amateur competition, in any sport. DJ.A.

Swingers' season ends By Kirk Madsen Tee Jay's girls' golf team ended its season with a 2-5 dual record and ·a twelfth place finish out of 18 competing teams in the Metropolitan Conference meet. Senior DeAnna Kahre finished fourth in the Metro for the second year in a row, shooting a 92 for 18 holes. According to Golf Coach Wayne Mains, the team started strong, but then ran into tough competition. Mr. Mains added, "The team had several close matches." There were six girls out for golf, including Seniors DeAnna Kahre and Linda Reed. Juniors on the squad were Chris Mcintosh, Tammy Logan, Angela Lantz and Diane Clark. Mcintosh said, "We didn't do real well, but we had a Jot of fun." In the spring the golfers will play against Iowa schools only. Winter swim team needs members Heading into the Missouri Valley Conferen~ meet t~­ morrow at Lewis Central, Swimming Coach Mike Hale is looking for more girls interest·!d in swimming to come out for the winter season. With only _eight girls participating duri~g fall swimming, Coach Hale said 14-16 girls are needed to fill a team for the winter season. Mr. Hale is urging anyone (boys and girls) interested in swimming to attend the first practice on Nov. 7. Of the eight girls out this fall only three returned from last year. They are Seniors Melinda Price, Linda Reed and Junior Missy Strehle. "I think we are doing really well, except for the lack of participation," Price said. The lack in numbers of participants may be the reason why the girls' swim team is 0-5 in duals. Another reason might be, because the team is inexperienced, except for four members who have participated in swimming before. "I think all of the girls have improved a lot, but (Sophomores) Kelly Meekins and Laura Faust's times have been coming down the fastest," Mr. Hale said.

The Principle of Moments, Plant's second post-Zeppelin LP, is much more melodic than any in the Led Zeppelin discography. Space and Light "In the Mood" and "Thru' With the Two Step" invite a moody keyboard setting accented by a soothing guitar. "Wreckless L o v e ' ' and "Messin' With the Mekoo" are both very intense, but the delivery is different than his early days with Zep. Pictures at Eleven, Plant's first solo album, sounds much more like Led Zeppelin than his new album. "Horizontal Departure" and "Other Arms" are the only new songs that dimly reflect that former sound, while "Big Log" presents an almost new wave drumming style. ·Expert assistance Robert Plant is accustomed to performing with excellent musicians. Having the association with guitar great Jimmy Page and the i_mmortal John "Bonzo" Bonham, Plant now confides in a different set of musicians. He has Jinked up with longtime friend Robbie Blunt on guitar and has once again lured Phil Collins of Genesis onto another record. Exotic addition Making a brief cameo appearance is Barry Barlowe of Jethro Tull. Barlowe's e x o ti c drumming style adds a strange lope to the s p a c e - a g e "Stranger Here (Than Over There)" and sets the pace for "Wreckless Love." Emotional transition Be f o re Bonham's death, Plant's three-year-old son died of illness that same year. Moderate rock a pleasant change By Kevin Mower How long does one night last? According to the title track of Bonnie Tyler's Faster than the Speed of Night LP, about four minutes. In the music world of blaring guitars and amplifiers pushed to their utmost limits; Tyler's soft to moderate rock sounds are a pleasant change. Tyler and her band demonstrate several types of music styles, from ballads to soft rock to reggae, handling each in a surprisingly well manner. Tyler is supported by an excellent band as well as excellent back-up vocals. Most of the back-up vocals are done by Rory Dodd, who does a duet with Tyler in "Total Eclipse of the Heart." In one song, "Going Through the Motions," Tyler is assisted by a children's choir. With a very well-rounded group able to switch music styles easily, the future holds much promise for Tyler. **** 3200-Sth Ave. - 328-3092 21 2 Midlands Mall - 325-0229- Council Bluffs, Iowa 5 1501 . I Betty Williams & Ron Williams () The principle of moments states that when parallel forces· are in equilibrium, the moments clockwise equal the moments counterclockwise. Plant's shattered view of the transience of life has taken him from the dark fury of Led Zeppelin to an album full of space and light. Not only has the music around him changed, his own vocals have gained a new depth that the first six Zeppelin albums lack. The Principle of Moments has spawned Plant's first solo tour. He is currently touring the United States and is poised to strike England.

The Ninth Grade Study Committee has made the reeommendation t h a t the ninth grade students presently in the junior highs to th~ two high schools. The recommendation was given to Superintendent William Lepley. Public hearings will be scheduled to take p 1 a c e within the corning months in order to give the public a chance to ask questions about the recommendation according to Ray Newberg, assistant superintendent and chairman of the coml . lit •• ~'. .... ..... ··. " ) ~" VoL 62, No. 3 mittee. After the meetings Superintendent Lepley will then present the recommendation . to the Council Bluffs School Board for approval. If freshmen make the transition ot high school, Tee Jay would undergo some changes in construction and policy. A new gym, complete with locker room facilities would be constructed along with additional ~lassrooms to accommodate the increase in student enrollment. A staff increase would also be planned. Graduation requirements would also change. There would be additional credits needed to graduate. Some policy changes would be made, but. they would be gradual and no one really knows presently what they would be according to Steve Hardiman, assistant principal. This choice was made after two years and 21 Ninth Grade Study Committee meetings, in which four proposals were reviewed, according to Mr. Newberg. The committee was made up of 20 members, including 13 private citizens, and it was formed to decide on the possibility of having the ninth grade taught in the high schools. One proposal under review was to just leave things as they are. Another proposal was to have the seventh, eighth and ninth grades attend only three junior highs: Wilson, Kim and a third large junior high to be constructed. Still another proposal was to have the junior high grades remain as they are, but move all the junior high studen~ to Wilson and Kirn. This plan included some construction on both junior highs. According to Mr. Hardiman, the money for the accommodations w o u 1 d not come from a tax increase, but from school funds already saved. "In the beginning I was against the proposal," Mr. Hardiman said, "but it was the majority opinion and I gradually began to see it their way." Open House changes to Conferences By Randy Gallup In the past years Tee Jay has informed parents of their son or daughter's progress in the f o r m of an "Open House." This year it wiJI be in the form of individual Parent Conferences. They wiJI be held Nov. 7 and 8 from 6:30-9 p.m. Parents of students whose last name begins with the letters "A to M" will be asked to attend Nov. 7 and "N to Z" Nov. 8, Principal Gaylord Anderson said. A g r o u p of parents, headed by Booster Club President Joy Sowers, led to the change. They were not satisfied with the job that the "Open House" situation was doing. Because of this concern with the Jacking parentto-teacher relationship, the group contacted the school, Parent Conference Committee Leader Jan Hawkes, business,., said. A number of changes are being made this year in the publicizing department. One • l>.e \(\C,~ The faywalking law \'<'6 is examined on page two.

The many kinds of phobias are looked at on page six. "Phantoms," a new thriller, is reviewed on page eight. main concern is to let the parents know of the conferences. According to Mrs. Hawkes, this year a letter is being mailed home before the conferences, instead of letting the students take them home themselves. Also an advertisement is being run in the Council Bluffs Nonpareil's Seen and Heard section and possibly even an announcement on the radio station. The Booster Club has the goal of calling each student's parents to Jet them know, Mrs. Hawkes said. "We're hoping for a problem with too many parents attending the conferences," Mrs. Hawkes said. A committee of teachers was then formed to come up with a solution. Members of the committee were the following teachers Ed Rhodes, Terry Todd, Charles Crouse, Cindy Whitney, Garry Bannick, Mary Daley, John Gibson, Tom Vincent, Julie O' - Doherty and Mrs. Hawkes , Mr. Anderson said. During the last teachers' in-service day, held Oct. 12, the members of the Parent Conference Committee divided the remaining Tee Jay teachers into groups of seven or eight and discussed the plans on the decision, Mrs. Hawkes said. "It'll improve the relationship between the parents and taichen," Mr. Andenon said. Two Editorial The Signal Law gives fines to jaywalker What would you do if you came home from school with a ticket in your· hand for jaywalking across Broadway? People who first hear of being ticketed for walking across Broadway in the middle of the street usually have a negative attitude and ask why authorities would do such a stupid thing. Teachers aren't teaching enough basics. Not preparing students wett enough for college. Not enough homework. "I think it's bad. It's almost as if we're being treated as little kids," Junior Steve Andrews said. Although it may be poorly thought of, the enforced law does have some logical reasoning to it.

According to Assistant Principal Steve Hardiman, "This is only being enforced to ensure the safety cf the students." So before we laugh at this so called silly rule - first think of your own sa fety and remember past happenings. Fanders backs administration • • • 1n messy, no soap s1tuat1on Dear Editor: I was somewhat disturbed by the article, "No Soap Cn7' ates Messy Situation." The implication seems to be that it is the ad.ministration's or the janitors' fault that there is no soap in the boys' restroom. The janitors did put soap in the rest rooms a year or llO ago. Students used it for everything except sandwiches. It was used to write obscenities on the mirror. It was used to mark the walls. It was used on the floor for skating. It was in the stools or urinals along with the toilet paper. You wondered what kind of places these people came from. They certainly had no respect for their school, their .fellow students or themselves. I think in self-defense the administration or janitors thought it might be well to withdraw the soap until students grow up enough . to be trusted with it. Ecli:or's Not.e: Sincerely, R.H. Fanden According to School Nurse Jean Tellander, it is a sdlool policy to keep soap in the restrooms. Mrs. TeUander added, ''I know it gets stuff~ in die toi· ~ets and everything else, but I still think it's vital to keep soap m there, because of hepatitis and other harmful germs." Checking out not checking out Dear Editor: I don't know for sure who made the final decision on ~ 8~yeai:-olds can't check out without parent permission, but it isn t fair. If the law and President of the United States considers us adults, Tee . Jay should, too. . As for parents wanting to know where their (as they say) children are - they can just ask. It really isn't that big of a deal, but some parents can't be reached when someone needs to check out. As for Mr. Hardi.man's "new rules," we can live with some of them. We also miss Mr. (James) Van Maanen, nothing against Mr. Hardiman.

It is being directed by Drama Instructor John Gibson and Music Instructor Jerry Brabec. The musical is derived from the fairy tale "The Princess and the Pea." The play has taken the fairy tale and added music, dance and humor. It was first produced with Carol Burnett cast as Princess Winnefred. "When I read the musical, it hit me," Mr. Brabec commented. "111is is the one." Mr. Gibson had made a list of about 50 other musicals and "Once Upon a Mattress" was the chosen one . A minimum of 40 hours will go into rehearsals, according to Mr. Brabec. This does not include time spent pract1cmg and memonzmg lines outside scheduled times. A production not only takes time, but money is also involved. Approximately $2,- 000 will be spent in making props and costumes, according to Jerry Brabec. The props, of course, will include an abundance of mattresses and a small pea.

W it h · fr~shmen coming to- ·Tee Jay as next year, many need to be repaired. By Jeff Marcks possibly as early facilities The track and tennis courts have seen better days. Athletic Director Don Moxley said repairs to these facilities plus others will "still be needed whether t h e y (freshmen) come or not." According to Mel McKern, supervisor of buildings and grounds, such repairs need to be included in the budget which is planned by the Board of Education in J anuary and February of each P~ work The track, built in 1977, had a sealer applied five years ago, according to Mr. Anderson. Mr. McKem said that two years ago around $17,- 000 was s p e n t repairing Council Bluffs Stadium. The track was also lengthened and converted to a meter track. This, according to Mr. McKern, cost more than it would to just overlay the track at Tee Jay. Mr. Anderson said to the best of his "knowledge," the track's finish ch u t e was patched this past summer. Cracks Bob Nielsen, physical education teacher and boys' track coach, said, It's "dangerous to long jump." tB!d:hJ., 'YWMm_ }loJu~l- ~~- A TJ BOOSTER ~ ~) Phone 322-4445- ( 1 4' 3000 Avenue B Council Bluffs, Iowa 51501 There are big cracks with weeds growing out of them. The only needed repair Mr. Anderson could see was the track appears to need to be "lined." The tennis courts are also in poor condition. Girls' Tennis Coach Mike Bond said, "It's embarrassing having to tell the other coach, 'if the ball takes a 'whacky' bounce on the serve, we'll play it over.'" The boys' tennis coach, Mike Hoffman, doesn't play matches on our courts. His team plays on the city's courts, like at Roberts Park, because our facility is in such poor condition.

He said he was "under the impression it would be fixed this fall." But before repairs are done to a facility, principals of the schools need to propose that the facility be fixed to the Board of Education. Then the major repairs, or the most necessary repairs are figured first, according to Mr. McKern. Although one-third of the school (seniors) will not see the drastic changes - requests to repair the track and tennis courts at Tee Jay are needed. It is just hoped that when repairs are evident, they are not just put aside.

Sophomore Terry Carmicheal said, "If everyone does their best, we could win State." According to Mr. Bond, of the seven possible records that can be set by individuals, four were set this season. Carmicheal set two records with his score of 7 .25 on the pommel horse and a 7 .23 in the all-around. Other marks set were the floor exercise record of 8. 7 5 by Freshman Todd Crouse and the vaulting record set by Abraham Lincoln Junior Ted Haynes. His score was 9.35. Haynes is allowed to compete _for Tee Jay, because Abraham L i n co 1 n doesn't field a team. According to Coach Bond, the team also set a new team scoring record in its win over Omaha Creighton Prep, with a 118.25. With that win the tumblers ended the season with a 4-2 dual record. The Jackets lost only to Omaha Burke and Millard South, who are "two top teams" in the Metropolitan Conference, a c e o r d i n g to Marty Edwards, senior gymnast.

In depth The Signal Oct. 28, 1983 Phobias - situations cause question of fear By Jill Carstens Working up the courage to talk in front of an audience during a class may seem impossible. Gradually, though, you may overcome this fear and learn to deal with it. Problems arise when a person never learns to deal with a certain situation, then this fear is no longer a fear but rather a phobia. Psychology Teacher Deb Pogerniller said, "sOme students have a hard time telling whether it's a fear or an actual phobia." Phobias defined "I shall define phobia to be a fear of an imaginary evil, or an undue fear of a real one," Benjamin Rush, known as the father of American psychiatry, said. A phobia is really an irrational fear. According to the book, "Fears and Obsessions" written by Joy Melville, although the causes of a phobia may differ, the effect on all phobics, faced with what they fear, is the same--varying only in degree. Some people are unable to detect the phobia. In "Nothing to Fear, Coping with Phobias" Fraser Kent wrote that phobias tend to appear gradually - so gradually, sometimes, that the person can't remember how or when it started. A Council Bluffs clinical psychologist, Dr. Ron Johnson, said th at an infant is born with a fear or insecurity. It's a matter of not overcoming the fear which makes people more and more afraid. Fears reinforced Fears are introduced at a young age and somewhere along the line are reinforced, a c c o r d i n g to Psychology Teacher Bruce Voigts. The causes of these phobias vary among people. A Council Bluffs private practice counselor, Elaine Wells, said that almost anybody, who has had a traumatic experience as a youngster, has had a fear never dealt with. This fear, then, may have grown out of proportion. It rarely makes a difference what kind of people are affected. Dr. Neil Olshan and Julie Wang's "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Phobias" relates that for an estimated ten million Americans, phobias have become a way of life. "All types of people have this problem; it has no respect for social class, education, age, race or religious faith. It seems to affect women more than men· at least, women are more ap~ to seek treatment for it," according to "Nothing to Fear, Coping with Phobias." Survey of Fears What do people actually fear? In a survey of 3,000 U.S. inhabitants, 41 percent feared speaking l;>efore a group and 32 percent were afraid of heights. PHOTOGRAPHY BY Phone 322-1012 Phobias can strike anyone. It makes no difference, • one is immune to the power of a crippling fear. A Council Bluffs psychia- The treatment of these trist, Dr. Michael Egger, said phobias can often differ. Acthat agoraphobia is one of the cording to "Phobias and 01:>- most common phobias. sessions," the belief as to how ' ' T o d a y specialists consider this to be the most com"' mon phobia in North America and Europe (perhaps twothirds of all phobics seeking treatment suffer from agorophobia), partly because its meaning has been extended to cover a cluster of fears that involve being away from home: the fear of open spaces, of lakes and oceans of bridges and tunnels, of crowds, of stores and theatres, of being lost and so on. It's impossible to determine j~ t how many people have this problem, if only beuse most agoraphobics are hidden away within their own homes. Sometimes only their closest contacts recognize the problem, according to "Noth1~g to Fear, Coping with Pho-· bias." . ~s . Wells said claustrophobia_ is also a prevalent phobia. This deals with the dread of closed narrow spaces. Mr. Voigts said that kids have phobias about all kinds ?f thi_ngs. It may mean playi~g sick or actually feeling sick about the thought of school, or it can relate to food . "When we talk about anorexia, we deal with the fear of food ," Mr. Voigts said. a phobia or obsession starts, governs the treatment and explains why there are radically different approaches to the problem. By admitting that you have uncontrollable fears is the first step in resolving them, "Everything You A 1 ways Wanted to Know About Phobias" stated. Dr. Johnson said that treatment begins by helping people to discover the essence of truth. Talking out the fear usually helps to overcome it, but sometimes medications must be used. New medication Dr. Egger said, "Some medications that are relatively new are used as treatments." According to Ms. Wells, testing out the things that a person is afraid of also benefits in overcoming the fear. She said that she helps phobics go into the situation and asks them the question of how they can deal with the situation now that they are adults. Ms. Wells believes that most phobics spend a great amount of time trying to go around the phobia, instead of confronting it and concentrating on relieving the problem altogether.

"We've definitely had more kids eat lunch and have had favorable comments," Mrs. Fillebeck said. As a long line of impatient students stand with sweaty palms and hungry eyes, one could very easily envision the surroundings as that of a McDonald's fast-food chain. At the end of the line there is pushing, shoving and an occasional fist fight. All over those delicious hamburgers and cheeseburgers served in the school cafeteria. Yes, things are -looking up in the lunch room. No coats Students no longer have to unpack their winter coats and traipse over to McDonald's during lunch hour with the opportunity of having either burgers and fries, or the daily special for only 7 5 cents in our cafeteria. "It's great. It's much cheaper than a Big Mac attack," Senior Todd Marshall said. The addition of hamburgers and cheeseburgers to the every day menu is attributed to first year Council Bluffs Community Schools Food Service Director Jane Hentzler, who wanted more students to eat lunch in the cafeteria. Burger desired "I asked students why they didn't eat lunch in the cafeteria and a lot said they didn't like the menu and would rather get a hamburger," Ms. Hentzler added.

Nov. 11, 1983 The Signal Entertainment Three Genesis rejects redundancy, invites unique sound By Tim Creek 'Survivor' is a term too often used to describe rock bands of longevity. However, this label cannot be applied to the progressive rock trio Genesis. Now encompassing its fifteenth year, Genesis has released an album of unfathomable depth. Genesis, the new self-titled LP, safely ushers the band out of any dead ends down the road. One dead end being the extensive use of a drum machine on both the Duke and Abacab albums. It has been left behind on the new album. Group effort No longer accepting finished material, Genesis has elimir:ated the clash of three very different musical tastes. Its collective songwriting revisits the Genesis of old (with vocalist Peter Gabriel and guitarist Stephen Hackett) and circulates more unity throughout the new album. Something old and new W h a t m a k e s Genesis unique is the use of both old and new styles. "Mama" is masterfully constructed from a raw, mechanical drum riff through a gradual addition of instruments up to Phil Collins' d.!umset blitzkrieg. Carter • Lake Dairy Queen W E TREAT YOU RIGHT!

Creative writing "Home by the Sea" and "Silver Rainbow" are both brilliantly illustrated w it h imagery, while musically supplimented with fresh percussion instruments. "Second Home by the Sea" omits the vocals through the first half of the song, replaced by a pleasant composition of keyboards. Review Genesis surrenders its image on the song "Illegal Alien," a humorously satirical tune in which Collins' accented vocals draws most of the listener's attention. I ncomparable rock On the sleeve of its first album, a liner note read, "We hope you will find no one to compare it with." After a decade and a half, Genesis has fulfilled this claim.

The Jack et grid de rs ended their season with a 37-6 setback to Omaha Central. Bad breaks According to A s s i s t a n t Coach John Kinsel, the team had some crucial penalties and fumbles in close games. Mr. Kinsel said, "At times the offense would have a good drive going, but then someone would fumble, or we would have a penalty and that would destroy the players' confidence that was built up in themselves." Senior Co-Captain Doug Davis added, "We got very few breaks and needed less penalties." Strong points Despite the football team being outweighed during the year, it did have some strong points. Mr. Carlson cited the "passing attack and diverse offense" as a strong point. Players who stood out for the team were Junior Quarterback William Arellano who had 1,322 yds. in total offense and Senior Ron Ragland who had 24 receptions for 441 yds. Both players were ranked high among Metropolitan Conference individual leaders. Junior Sidney Jackson wa~ the team's leading rusher with 576 yds. for an average of 8.6 per carry. Top Tackler Davis, a defensive end, was the leading tackler for the Jackets. He had 71 assisted tackles and 36 individual tackles. Jackson was second with 67 assisted tackles and 28 individual stops. Senior Randy Gallup was third with 71 assisted tackles and 19 individual tackles. The lone victory for the Jackets came in the third game of the season with a 21-0 whipping of Omaha North. They also suffered one point losses to St. Albert and Millard South. Mini-marathon races to success With more people becoming active in intramurals, Intramural Director John Kinsei decided to hold a minimarathon. A regulation marathon is 26 miles, but the Jacket run was shortened to 2.6 miles. "We had a lot more participants than I thought we would have," Mr. Kinsel said. There was a total of eight participants in the mini-marathon. The winner of the boys' division was sophomore David Neff with a time of 14:24. Junior Mike Madsen was a close second with a 14:25 time. Winner in the girls' division was Junior Lisa Harrison with a time of 22:02. "It was pretty fun. It's nice to have something a little different every now and then," Madsen said. 3200-Sth Ave. - 328-3092 212 Midlands Mall - 325-0229 <···"' ......... 09 Betty Williams & Ron Williams Nov. 11, 1983 The Signal Sports Seven , Gymnasts claim State meet crown By Kirk Madsen Winning State is the dream of every athletic team.

Ideally it is hoped that all special education students will be in public schools. This will get the special education . students use to being with people their own age, according to Miss Maxe. · For the most part the students likt Tee Jay.

What many are not realizing is the genuine fact that teachers are paid inferior wages. Currently a new t e a c h e r , with the Council Bluffs system, in his first year of teaching, is paid $13,000. Those with a Bachelor of Arts degree that have taught five years have a meager salary of $15,340. Studer.ts otten ignore or rather forget that many educators are forced to withstand unf. ·ir classroom tensions. Some students make it a hahit to turn the classroom into a place of disruption without discovering that the instructor is a major key to opening the door to learning and knowledge. M any teachers are often impelled to work other jobs, besides teaching, to meet their own financial needs. One member of our faculty commented that he works two other jobs besides his own fulltime position. What first needs to be done, is the evaluation of educators. Their worth to the community and impact on the future also must be seriously considered. THE PHARMACY LOUI E CARTA, R.P. 35th and 2 nd Ave. 322-6266 Anne's parents still had large medical bills.

Junior Laura Gearhart, a Brandeis employee at the Midlands Mall, said that she often sees Tee J ay students shopping there. Most students who have jobs put money in a bank. Jim Comstock of the Council Bluffs Savings Bank said that his financial institution serves approximately 600 students from area high schools. "Full-time students receive free checking accounts," Mr. Comstock said. He added if a student goes on to college this service is continued. "I put half of my paycheck in the bank every week," Gretchen Buffington, a junior who works at Tish's, said. Senior Stacy Smith said what she puts in the bank depends on how much she makes. Seniors said that they have even more expenses than sophomores or juniors stating that class rings, Prom, graduation announcements, cap and '1t's rather difficult to get up for school alter you've closet/ the night before." Although she feels clothing prices are too high, she said clothes are important to a teen. "Everybody likes to dress nice," she said. For some students, a job interferes with their school work. Kris Long, a junior, who works at Burger King, said, "It's rather difficult to get up for school after you've closed the night before. " A student working at Taco Bell may not leave until 2 a.m., while McDonald's employees get off at I :30 a.m. on school nights and 3: 30 a.m. on weekends. BASKETBALL, WRESTLING and JOGGING SHOES gown fees, senior dues and senior pictures take a big bite out of their budget. Beverly ·Armstrong, an employee of Alanlee Photography, said that senior pictures range from $39.95 to $112.95 at th at studio. In a survey taken at random by 25 Tee Jay students, 19 said that they worked at a full or part-time job after school. Fifteen of those 19 stated that they put some money away from their paychecks into a bank.

PHOTOGRAPHY BY Phone 322-1012 Eight Entertainment The Signal Dec. 2, 1983 Disc players off er precise sound, high fidelity By Tim Creek Just when you thought you had the ultimate audio system, s t e r e o manufacturers have made a major technological breakthrough. The compact disc player will soon become the newest addition to stereo cabinets everywhere, taking priority over cassette decks· and conventional turntables alike. Super sound This is due to unmatched s o u n d reproduction and equally unparalleled ability to retain that sound. The phonograph needle has given way to a laser beam, rendering the disc unscratched ·play after play. The disc is 41/ 2 inches in diameter, and will be priced anywhere from $15 to $30. A compact disc consists of one hou r of playing time, all prerecorded on one side only. Phone 323-4812 According to Glen Henry, Stereo West sales representative, the disc is inserted either vertically or horizontally, depending on the model. 400 spins The disc spins at 400 rotations per minute until nearing the end of the side, slowing to 200 rpm's. Unlike standard turntables, the disc is placed in the player with the blank side up, shooting the laser beam through the disc, playing the material on the bottom. Compact disc players are manufactured f r o m many companies, ranging from JC Penney to Sony and Technics. The player's price tags also range widely, some as low as $350 to others on up to $2,000.

At this time, a proposition is being contemplated about the fate of the old Safeway building. According to Principal Gaylord Anderson, a manufacturing company has looked at the building and considered the thought of purchasing it. Real Estate Agent Bill Perdue said, "At this point they are still negotiating." He said that the decision should be handed down after the first of the year. A conditional use permit has been granted to the company and now the company has the option to buy the building, accordin_g to Council Bluffs Planning Technician Martin Fricko. Some opposition about the area chosen, though, has raised some objection. "I'm not opposed to bringing new business to Council Bluffs.

Two Editorial The Signal Dec. 16, 1983 The Bear Hug Frosh to invade homes of mice By Jim Hug Hickory dickory dock, The mouse ran down the hall, Through the student lounge, And into the cafeteria. ' There a force of approximately 12,500 gathered in the kitchen for their 4 p.m. feast. According to a spokesman for the mice, there are 2,500 mice - too many for the amount of space they are allotted in the building. Reason cited This has proven to be the reason many mice have been forced to show up around classrooms and other places beyond their jurisdiction, he explained. The spokesman pleaded for sympathy from the administration and cafeteria workers. "I know the ninth grade study c o mm i t t e e recommended to move freshmen to " the high schools, the spokesman explained, "but for us it would prove to be catastrophic." "As for the hamburgers everyday," he muttered, "I've never been associated with such cruelty!" Appearing mice The appearance of mice around the school building is no secret to students or teachers. Marilyn Nielsen, business teacher, has had several experiences with mice around the school. "One time, there was a mouse running around the podium in the cafeteria during study hall. I calmly alerted Mr. (Doug) Muehlig by piercing my fingernails in his arm," Miss Neilsen said. "Later that same day, I saw another mouse come running down the hall and into my classroom. This was not the fast time I've noticed mice in my room," Miss Nielsen added. Nielsen liked When asked about this, the spokesman said, "Miss Nielsen should be flattered. The mice have probably just taken a liking to her." Concerning any arguments declaring mice as being a problem around our school, let's look at it this way.

Senior Wrestler Bill Wetmore feels he can improve his chances at a lighter weight. Wrestling Co a ch Steve Mead said that he doesn't require or have any type of weight loss program for his wrestlers and leaves the decision of weight Joss up to the athletes. Coach Mead believes that a wrestler can do better to drop from, for example, 135 lbs. down to 131 lbs., but an Carter • Lake Dairy Queen WE TREAT YOU RIGHT! Taking Call In Orders 347-6800 Drive Thru Window Newly Remodeled Store Air Conditioned Dining Room excessive drop in weight is not smart and will probably hinder the wrestler's overall performance. Dr. Rick Grahn, Sports Physical Therapist, at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, said that excessive weight Joss by any athlete in any sport is dangerous, because of the chance of the athlete becoming dehydrated. It could also cause the vital elcctrolite chemicals in the body, which control different body functions, to beco~e 'confused' and not function right. This can cause a .change in study habits, appetite and attitudes. Senior Bill Wetmore and Sophomore Richard Paulsen practice wrestling. (Photo by Frank Faust) Dr. Grahn also said that to lose ten pounds of fat it should take four to five weeks to do safely. If the weight is lost any faster, it's mostly water which could in the extreme cases cause heat stroke. This is due to the inability of the body to cool itself because of the lack of water. Junior Wrestler Ken Leitz said, "I had to wear a lot of sweats and plastics and go on a water diet to lost 8-9 lbs." There has been legislation started in some states to chaige the classification standards for wrestlers, again at the college level, Dr. Grahn said. PH . 328-3229 2312 W. Broadway Council Bluffs, la.

Broadway Sports-A-Ray Michigan is solid on offense. But Auburn is solid all over. The Tigers will roll to an impressive 27-10 victory. Iowa will have to have a great game from Chuck Long and Owen Gill. In a close game I'll take Iowa 27-24. Texas has the number one ranked defense in the nation. Georgia is tough again this year. In an upset I'll take the Bulldogs 20-13. SMU lost one game this year, that was to second ranked Texas. The Mustangs are great on offense and will roll over the helpless Crimson Tide 31-20. UCLA has played better and better every week. The Bruins' weak point has been the offense. Illinois' awesome offense will prevail 30- 17. Nebraska un!:>eatable? Wake up "Sports Illustrated."

The Florida Gators could make thls game interesting since they're playing at home. They might even stay in the game, but I doubt it. Iowa will roll 41-19. The undefeated Longhorns of Texas will suffer their first loss of the season with a disappomtmg offensive effort. The defense will also let the Longhorns down as Georgia will triumph 24-13. An impressive S o u t h e r n Methodist team will take out its vengence on Ray Perkins and the Alabama Crimson Tide for not being invited to a major bowl game. Mustangs 34 Tide 1 7. UCLA will need lots of big plays to win this one. The fighting Illini will just be too tough winning 35-24. The Nebraska Cornhuskers come into Miami having played the easiest schedule in the NCAA. But the Huskers are rated No. one and should at least pull off a one point 28-27 victory over a spirited Miami Hurricane defense. Kendall's Comments Auburn's been one of the top teams all year long. They will roll with an impressive win over the Wolverines 35- 14. Thls will be another close contest, but with the Hawkeyes having five All-Big Ten players, Iowa has a slight edge over the Gators 24-17. Number two ranked Texas has the best defense in the nation, but a very pitiful offense. I'm looking for the Bulldogs to pull the upset in this game 20-17. SMU, with only one loss to a number two ranked Texas team, deserves a bigger bowl bid than thls. The Mustangs will win over an impressive Alabama team 24-12. The Bruins have been hot after a disappointing start, but the Fighting Illini are on fire. With a number five ranking Illinois will prevail 27-14. Awesome, is the only way to describe the number one ranked Huskers. Mike Rozier will take the wind out of the Hurricanes.

By Tim Creek Now a vague memory, rock superstars of the seventies have been nudged out of people's minds by fresh, new acts. It is unusual for an established band to follow popular new trends, which makes the reformation of Yes especially triumphiant. Strong effort Led by the crisp, high vocals of Jon Anderson and the forceful but elegant bass of Chris Squire, Yes has recorded their strongest record to date. The album is 90125, titled after the catalog number before the LP was even completed. These songs have expanded the Yes of the seventies with technology of the eighties. Higher quality This results in a better sounding finished product, especially when a m p I i f i ~ d through a set of headphones. "Our Song," largely written by Jon Anderson , sounds like the Yes of the past with a tasteful t w i s t of today's sounds. The o n 1 y instrumental piece, "Cinema." bears an incredible resemblence to the music of Genesis, with Alan White leading the way on dr.1ms and percussion. Guitarist Trevor Rabin revived. the sitar, a popu1ar stringed instrument 10 to 15 years ago. This is used on the song "It Can Happen," referring to the band's popualrity through the lyrics. "Changes" is a smooth blend of both old and new. reflecting the hit "Round~ about" at th ~ beginning, but backed by hai:-der drum beats and a revitalized guitar. Mystical music All of the group's mystic and magic culminate with "Hearts," the last song on the LP. Founded with intricate timing between Squire on bass and 'W'hite on drums. the song affords equal balance between lyrical quality and the band's musicianship. Vocal strength The vocals have always been Yes' strong point. There is no change with 90125; all members sing except Keyboardist Tony Kaye. This reserves Jon Anderson's inspiring voice for strong passages throughout the song, giving each song a luster of its own. With old bands like The Hollies, The Animals and now Yes back in the music scene, new groups will have to struggle to prove themselves. ***** i----- COUPON 1 (One Coupon Per Person) OFFER GOOD 'T l L JANUARY 16, 1984 L ~- -~ ~ ~- -~ ~ ~- ·• ' .

Tee Jay has s ho w n an improvement in scores over the previous year's results, according . to Counselor Roger Utman. The tests, which we r e given to the juniors, serve two main reasons, according to Ted Stilwill, director of educational services. One is that it gives the students a chance to see and evaluate their own individual progress. The second reason is to give the school administration some information with which to evaluate and improve certain programs, Mr. Stilwill commented. Percentile ranks The test scores are based on percentile ranks, comparII I ing student scores to other scores across the state and country. According to Mr. Stilwill, approximately 90 percent of the juniors districtwide took the test. Those students that didn't take the test were .composed of special education students and a few students that wouldn't take the tests seriously. Otherwise, all juniors were required to take the tests. The scores for Tee Jay improvetl 1 8 percentile ranks on the national scale and three percentile ranks in the state, according to Mr. Stilwill. Reasons cited The reasons for the improvement, according to Principal Gaylord Anderson, are the strengthening of the curriculum and that the teachers are working more directly with the students.

If you haven't already suffered from sugar diabetes due to the M & M and candy bar sales, look out! These solicitors, which come from all walks of . life, will sell in the classrooms, in the halls, at the basketball games and in the student lounge. If you get away from one in the hall, you're sure to fall into the trap of the bake sales. We're doomed It's not bad enough that the pop and candy machines stand guard around the clock, in the student lounge, but now they've started seJling fountain pop and potato chips at the bake sales. We're Ja;no 12, 19- ~4 doomc.:<l anyway you look at it. Not only is it food that they are peddling, but they sell candles, et1ps, gift items, calendars and shirts. How can a person even think about their studies when they are contemplating. how to get away from these peddlers? They'll call you on the phone, and they'll say "pay me tomorrow" then you'll be in debt to them forever. No way out They'll threaten to use bodily harm; they'll start nasty rumors. They've got you. There's no way out, and they know it. One 800 pound Pepsi machine in the student lounge is not enongh. But they have two posted at each end of the lounge around the clock.

The issue itself, was probably the best issue yet. Jerry (Wajda) and the crew did an excellent job getting the paper out on time due to the snow days. The cartoon on anorexia nervosa left me disturbed. The article explained the dangers and causes of anorexia nervosa and was accompanied by a tasteless, degrading cartoon, well below The Signal's past ·standards. Anorexia is a very serious subject which should be dealt with the utmost care. Darryn Richardson Editors' Note: Senior If the nature of this cartoon offended anyone, The Signal wishes to apologize. This was not the purpose of the cartoon nor the intention of Art Editor Scott Brown. Doughman stands up for juniors Dear Editor: I think there should be more support for the junior var- sity teams of every sport. The varsity team is always highlighted. Everyone goes to the varsity games thinking they will be more important. . Also, The Signal usually always writes about varsity games and how the varsity teams are doing - not muc~ is written about the junior varsity players, who are just as l.lllportant. They should be treated equally. I think if you write about the junior varsity teams in The Signal, ~ore p~ople would go and support them. You can at least wnte their record and how they are doing. Michelle Doughman Editors' Note: Junior With six varsity sports, intramurals, lronmen and the s~ cer club to cover during the winter seasons, there is little if any room available for junior varsity and sophomore sports· With the limited amount of space offered to all of th~se sports, varsity sports have priority over the junior varsity sports. • The Signal does acknowledge and encourage j~nior var- sity and sophomore teams.

But 1983 was a successful year for the music business, and it could have enough spark to last for the years to come. On reason for the industry's fo iled success was its lack of an album with mass appeal. Massive following Early in the year, Def Leppard served up Pyroma11 ia. its third and best LP yet. Now nearing a sales peak of six million copies, Def Leppard embarked on a ninemonth tour th at was unmatched nationwide, including one show which was the second of a record-setting twinite sellout in Omaha in August.

In the Jackettes' first meet of the year, the Jefferson Invitational, four records were set. Freshman Dawn Spencer broke the school record in the floor exercise and balance beam. She also broke the record for the all-around with a score of 27.45. Junior Paula Brown set a school record in the vault with a 7 .85 score. According to Gymnastics Coach Mike Bond there are only three girls out for the team. Mr. Bond said, "We have enough for a team, but in order to get a team score one needs four." The only returning letterman on the team is Brown. Other members include Junior Deb Collier and Spencer. Phone 323-4812 According to Mr. Bond, he will try to get six meets for the squad. Iowa Schedule Mr. Bond stated that the team . "will compete against all Iowa schools, but there are very few teams to go against in this area." The lack of facilities and not having much practice time has hurt the J ackettes, according to Mr. Bond. They have b e en practicing at Franklin Elementary School and the Tee Jay hallway at night. Regionals? When Districts come around Mr. Bond said, "I expect to go farther than Districts." Regionals is the next step before State. Bond added, "We could end up with two or three girls going farther." Mr. Bond encourages any girls interested in participating in gymnastics to get in contact with him.

By Jeff Marcks With a "good possibility" to qualify some divers and swimmers for the State meet, Swim Coach Mike Hale said the team is '.'still short on numbers." The team consists of 11 boys and four girls. Senior Ke v i n Ferguson, who holds 11 individual and three relay records, along with Senior Jim Hug, who holds two individual and three relay marks, were cited by Coach Hale as two swimmers who have a chance for State competition. Mr. Hale also said Tee Jay has "good possibility with divers." He said the "potential is very high." Sophomore David Neff was cited by Coach Hale as one promising diver. Neff scored 296 points in an intrasquad meet, which tops the school record of 198.25, but this was not an official meet. Senior Diver Marty Edwards said, "He (Neff) seems to improve every practice." Mr. Hale predicts Neff to be "in the top ten in the State," as long as he works hard and sticks it out. Tee Jay has had only one person qualify for State. In 1978 Tom Hood, who is now the diving coach, earned a State berth. Among the Metropolitan Conference schools which Mr. Hale expects to be strong are Omaha Creighton Prep, Millard South, Omaha Burke, who "are all in our (American) division," and Omaha Westside, Mr. Hale said.

Lack of depth hurts lifters By Jerry Wajda Winning . three of eight weight classes, the Ironman weightlifting club took part in its first weight meet Dec. 16 against Abraham Lincoln. According to Coach John Kinsel the meet, held at Abraham Lincoln, consisted of only the bench press and the squat which was one of the club's downfalls in the 46-25 loss to the rival Lynx. According to Senior Lifter Mike . Sailors, lack of depth was also a factor. "They had more depth in the lower weights, and that hurt us," Sailors said. Tee Jay didn't have any lifters for the first two weight classes, according to Coach Kinsel. Both teams were also limited to 32 lifters. Meet postponed The meet, originally scheduled for Dec. 14, had to be rescheduled because of a snowstorm. "Physically I was prepared, but mentally I wasn't, because I wanted to lift Wednesday (Dec. 14)," Junior Lifter Brian Tippery said. Coach Kinsel hopes to schedule at least two more meets with other area schools in late January and February. The club was first formed two years ago by Coach Kinsel. This year the club started lifting after the football season and will end its season March 1. Requirements According to Coach Kinsel, the onl requirements to get into the club are to be able to bench press one's weight and pay a $10 fee. The lifter must also lift a prescribed amount each week . Currently there are 64 members. BOB'S TOWING & GARAGE 1 00 % South 16th 322-2811 328-0483 Continued from page 1 Other reasons cited by Mr. Utman for improved scores are that the students and teachers are taking a more serious attitude toward the tests. Seven categories According to Mr. Utman, the tests are made up of seven categories. Those areas are c o r r e c t n e s s of expression, quantitative thinking, social studies, natural sci'ence, interpretation of literature, general v o c a b u I a r y and sources of information. Tee Jay improved in all of the categories, and according to Mr. Stilwill, seemed to improve the most in quantitative thinking (math).

Staggered tests Currently, on 1 y seventh, ninth and eleventh grade students take the tests along with all of the elementary students. The reasons for this are twofold , according to Mr. Stilwill. He said students don't take the tests very seriously, and they become routine. Thus, the students don't try their best, if the "'tests are given every year. The information also is not needed every year to adequately monitor the students' progress, and thus the test given every other year, Mr. Stilwill said. TJ 4 tJ . .

"I want a break from school before I begin college this summer," Sande said. Sande plans on attending Jennie Edmundson Memorial Hospital School of Nursing .. Until summer classes begin Sande will work and save money for college. Joan Larsen, ·Sande's mother, said, "I think it's just fine. This is what she's always wanted." No regrets Neither Shon nor Sande have any regrets about their decision and both are supported by friends. Cou.nselor Kelly Scott said that due to the . new curriculum implemented with the class of 1985, fewer, if any, students will have enough extra credits to graduate early.

Two Ediforial Jan. 27, 1984 New rules may break old a its By Jerry Wajda Smoking has long been a controversial i s s u e in the United States, and soon it will also be in the spotlight at Tee Jay. Next year the railroad tracks behind the school will be eliminated as a place for students to smoke. This will be quite a change for those students who light up because there will be no place for them to smoke on or around school grounds. Smoking is currently prohibited on school property. There is currently a state law that prohibits the school from setting aside a designated smoking area for students. A committee here at school has been s~t up to study the situation and to help ease the transition that takes effect next year. This committee is made up of 11 staff members, Principal Gaylord Anderson said. This is an interesting situation. The school system does not want to condone or encourage smoking by the students by allowing them to smoke on the tracks. According to Mr. Anderson, the aim of the change is not to stop the students from smoking, but to stop them from smoking at Tee Jay. If done callously or incorrectly, this move by the administration could be a definite mistake. It could cause the smoking population of the student body to rebel against the faculty and administration. It could ea~ily cause more 1Th4" si1 .. 1 I NSPA All American Winner Quill & Scroll George H.

On the other hand, if this move is executed correctly, it could benefit all of those at Tee Jay. It must be done in close conjunction with the smoking students as well as the rest of the student body and faculty. If these students are well informed and know exactly what they can and can't do, • th s would alleviate and prevent a major portion of some possible problems. This move would be a step in the positive direction in more ways than one, if and only if, it is executed properly. If not done properly, it could conversely be a step in the wrong direction. It is now up to the administration. Counselors rest after rush Four counselors breathed a sigh of relief last Jan. 19, it was the last day for students to change their second semester classes. Two weeks prior to last Jan. 19, there were swarms of students flocking to the counseling center demanding to see their oounselors. Some of these students had comments to be made on the counseling center's helpfulness during their time of need. Shelly Bates, junior: "I wanted to get my schedule changed, but they said I couldn't because schedules were already made up." "I don't understand what difference Tuesday (the second day of second semester) will mak ~' Mark Smith, J unior: "I think the service in the counseling center was adequate, I had no problems getting my schedule changed." Lora Pederson, senior: "I think they handle the job very well. It does get crowded, but the only way you can handle that is first come, first serve." Jeni Beide, sophomore: "The counseling center is always crowded, when I've tried to go in." "I've been in there about six . times, and I still have to go back to get my scheduie ~pang ." Gladys Rayhill, senior: "I don't think students should be able to change their classes unless they have a legitimate reason." "They signed up for the classes - they should have to take them." Cheri Moore, junior: "The counseling center did a good job for me. They changed my schedule without asking any questions." " I think they feel we're old enough to make our own decisions." Jim Pauly, junior: "The job they did was great, but I think they could have avoided the crowds by sending out a certain number of passes each period." Nell Neal, senior: "The counseling center is doing fine. There's nothing they can do, if the classes you want are filled." "I think Mr. Utman is a good guy." Jan. 27, 1984 The Signal News Three Band room floods During the Christmas vacation an u n I i t pilotlight caused a $1,000 worth of damage. According to Head Custodian Max McGee, the roof is heated by a gas burner and apparently s o m con e had turned it off. Then the band room wasn't getting any heat, because the pilot light was out. After that there was a problem with relighting the pilot light. The pilot light was then never lighted thus posing the problem. Mr. McGee commented. A few band and vocal students came in to help clean up the mess the next day. The last time the water pipes froze and broke was: three years ago. This is the third time this has happened, Mr. McGee added. According to Vocal Instructor Jerry Brabec, some music and pianos were damaged.

Many first time dieters more or less dehydrate themselves. Lack of water and lack of food will hurt the body. For any activity which requires a lot of energy, a person needs carbohydrates. This puts on a little weight and goes through the body fast. Anorexia and bulimia are in fact problems, but what about controlled weight loss? Wrestlers are people who lose weight to benefit not only themselves, but the team. Being a wrestler myself, I understand the discipline and determination one needs to continue a diet for no other reason than to wrestle. For me, to lose 15 lbs. was a tough experience.

These events took place the summer after his graduation from high school. The identities of the teenager and poJice officer have been changed at their request. By Deb Heistand Drunk driving has been around since the automobile was invented, and in the past few years more and more people have been killed in accidents that involved drivers wh0 had been drinking. States are now enforcing their drunk driving laws more than ever. This is just one man's story about his drinking and drivmg. Situation dted It was around 2:30 a.m., when it seemed that flashing red lights were everywhere. John Doc sat in the back of the police crosier, staring at the two pieces of metal smashed together. Luckily, no one was hurt at this accident. The driver who was at fault had been drinking. John Doe, the driver, remembers back to the accident. "I was numb. I wasn't sure what was going to happen to me. I was so sure that I could make the tum before that car came," be said. The police officer at the accident told the passenger in the car to go and get John's parents. Nightmare "When John's friend came to the door and told us John had been arrested for drunk driving, it seemed like a nightmare com i n g true," John's father said. John was released in his father's custody after paying $500 bail. John's charge of O.W.I. (Operating While under the Influence) were dismissed. The reason for the dismissal was that the arresting officer did not fill out the proper forms, or give all the required Laws tighter for drunk drivers Bv Kathy Pierson "Provisional" lice~ses could be issued to teens, if Go_vernor Terry Branstand's recommendation to the State legislature becomes a Jaw. .

However, audio systems have been under fire from recorcffng artists and state legislatures alike, as to any copyright violations in recording with a cassette deck. Such home recording has b e e n seriously questioned, since each LP clearly proclaims "Unauthorized duplication of this recording is a violation of applicable laws and subject to criminal prosecution." Both the record executives and the artists themselves realize that recording off the radio produces true souoo recordings, but record sales also falter staggeringly. Sales setback The public's easy access to blank tape and audio acces"T sories has firmly rooted itself in modern music. In 1982 alone, Asia fell victim to two million pirated recordings of its debut effort, Asia. Now promoting its new LP, .Alpha, Asia has added one extra song to the cassette version that is not included on the record. The Police have done the same with Synchronicity, and Cheap Trick added two bonus tunes to the cassette of Next Position Please. R e c o r d label executives hope this will entice buyers to purchase the cassette, reducing the possibility of duplication. THE PHARMACY LOUIE CARTA, R.P. 35th and 2nd Ave. 322-6266 This can be defeated, however, with the use of a dual cassette deck. According to Brian Ranslen, World Radio salesman, people who are going to dub from tape to tape buy a dual cassette deck. One cassette can be recorded onto another with this type of deck, and is less expensive than buying two separate cassette decks. Revolutionary replacement Now the sound of the future, compact disc players replaced eight track players with unblemished sound reproduction. "The ?layer can be adapted to a home stereo through an auxiliary tape jack," Glen Henry, Stereo West salesman stated. The discs can be recorded with the use of a cassette deck in addition to the disc player. Compact discs are becoming more and more a part of everyday life. A Z-92 radio disc jockey, Joe Blood, stated that the SLP7 Technics compact disc player is being used courtesy of Stereo West, and the discs are courtesy of Homer's Record Store. Uniquely enough, the bestselling LP of 1983, Def Leppard's Pyromania, sold more copies of the cassette than the record. Tape turmoil Tierza T w o r k , Homer's Records S t o r e salesperson, said that people usually buy five or six albums and two or three blank cassettes, or a single LP and cassette.

This is the first story in a series to be published, that will try to deal with some of the questions and problems of the peopJe involved. This story contains the opinion of the writer. The main reason for the move according to Superintendent of Schools William Lepley, is because of the declining e n r o 11 m e n t at Bloomer, Longfe11ow and Edison Junior High schools. The cost per pupiJ at these schools have ranged up to 50 percent higher than at the two larger junior high schools (Wilson and Kim).

Perhaps, a new scheduling process should be considered with an extra five minutes for each per· iod. Maybe by a process of overlapping periods, the problem might head toward a solution.

The number and the .amount of the scholarships are to be determined by a scholarship committee. The committee is to consist of Mrs. Stilwill, Vocal Music Instructor Jerry Brabt:C, Band Director Dave Carlson, Principal Gaylord Anderson and a faculty member to be selected in the nenr future.

Year book A d v i s e r Deb Pogemiller said, this was because of the staff's efforts and the cover which featured varlOU!.l students and E.T. Mrs. Pogemiller said the stoff didn't have to pay a fee to use E.T., because permission was granted. Credit for th® drawing goes to Senior Dnryn Richardson. Time and effort Sh~ said other stJdents who contributed a lot of time and effort to the annual were 1983 graduates Sherry Ahems, Bob Everett and Senior Michelle Minor. Mrs. Pogemiller said Everett "contributed something special to sports, He was a real gogetter, 1u1 jnspiration." The 1983 yearbook received 235 points out of the 240 possible on the contest's grading scale for the structure category and 50 out of 60 possible points in the creativity area. In the 1982 annual all issues of The Signal, the schoot newspaper, were printed in the back, but the staff decided not to print them for the 1983 edition. This got mixed reactions, according to Mrs. Pogemiller. Color photos Two other changes were the larger size. of the senior pictures and the use of more color photos. "Everyone turns to look at the color pages iirst," Junior Barb Pruett said. Pruett got interested in yearbook after she took the minicourse as a sophomore.

Mrs. Pogemiller said that last year's book was also entered in the National Scholastic P r e s s Association critical service but she hasn't received a critique of it yet. Drama students 'ad' way to Super-State "This year's book will be better, because the theme will go all the way through," Pruett said. But this year's staff is keeping the theme a secret.

The height of an amateur boxer's year from the OmahaCouncil Bluffs area is on Jan. 27 and 28 when the Omaha Golden Gloves boxing tournament is held. Ken Wilgo trains Greco nine months out of the year. Mr. Wilgo said the reason Greco moved up in weight was because last year he had a hard time making the weight limit. On the first night of the Golden Gloves Greco won by a technical knock out, while on the second night he won by a decision.

By Jeff Marcks - ' ,.J. Athletes come and go with time. But participation in athletics at Tee Jay have dwindled tremendously in the past two years. Take this winter, for example the boys' basketball team started with 31 athletes and are now down to one senior, ten juniors and 13 sophomores. The wrestling squad has gone from 28,. the first week of practice to a low of 12. Currently it consists of two seniors, two juniors and eight sophomores. The swimming team, who has never had more than 11 in the past four years, has 11 boys in swimming and diving and has only four girls. Found home lronman Sponsor John Kinsel said some of the athletes have gone to the wei.ghtroom. This weightlifting club is now at '73 members. Mr. Kinsel said abat\t 35 pe1·cent of them have been out for sports in t st. Weights, w h i ch improve performance in any sport, should be part of a program for training for a sport. Many of the weight club members are looking forward to next year's football season. It is good these individuals want to develop themselves for this sport, which takes a lot of strength and endurance, but many will agree that another sport will help a person's endurance and strength. Sport helpful Mr. Kinsel, who is also an assistant football coach, said a sport is "more beneficial" for overall fitness. Mr. Kinsel said that weightlifting deals with only "one co m p o n e n t , ' ' which is strength. Whereas another sport will condition a person's cardiovascular system and develop strength and quickness. Could pan of the decline in winter athletic participation be caused by weight club membership? That is what we are trying to piece together. Next issue we will take a look at past sports and if outside sch09l competition for individuals is really . beneficial to the success of school sports.

A 21;2 hour debate was held in Des Moines at the Civic Center and contained more than its share of oneliners and criticisms of Ronald Reagan and his policies. Candidates who attended were Democratic frontrunner Walter Mondale, John Glenn, Ernest Hollings, Gary Hart, Alan Cranston, Jesse Jackson, George McGovern and Reuben Askew. News Analysis Each candidate expressed his own character and ideas m their opening speeches. They voiced their objectives clearly and concisely and rarely left any unanswered questions or holes in their plans. Senator Glenn of Ohio brought up the relations between President Reagan and the late Yuri A n d r o p o v , leader of the Soviet Union. He also strongly condemned the American position in Lebanon saying that t~e Uni~e~ States is involved m a civil war. Fann interest Reverend Jackson r e l i e d h e a v i l y in his beginning speech on farming and said that the United States needs to restructure agriculture relations. After opening comments, the contenders had the opportunity to aim questions at thei_r opponents. They discussed topics concerning the controversial issue of abortion, the Equal Rights Amendment, the nuclear freeze and the national debt. Reverend Jackson said that he believes in pro-choice relating to the issue of abortion. Sex education "I put more focus on sex education," Rev. Jackson said. Former South Dakota Senator George McGovern cited the question "Should the U.S. be the first country to commit itself to never use nuclear weapons?" Senator Cranston of California answered back simply by saying that the United States should abolish the weapons from the face of the earth. The candidates then answered questions from four panelists with Iowa backgrounds. They were questioned on education, women's II I rights and farming. Women's rights Senator Cranston t a 1 k e d about women's rights and said, "I learned as a young foreign correspondent in Nazi Germany, the rights of all are in danger when one minority is persecuted." With closing statements, the candidates, once again, stated their contentions and let the people of Iowa know that it was now up to them to make their decisions at the Democratic party caucuses held last Tuesday.

Since the spring of 1974, mini courses have been "the big event" at the end of the year. For the past ten years they have offered a fun and relaxed atmosphere between the students and teachers. After a decade of mm1, courses Tee Jay students have shown that they are responsible. . . . • • ": ..

P.U.S.H. prevents drugs By Monfca Reid With a little P.U.S.H.ing and shoving, some Tee Jay students are trying to stop the drug problem existing in the school system . P. U.S.H. (Prevention Using Student Help) is a drug prevention group that was or· ganized by Mike Winchester, a former school board member. Mr. Winchester started out by talking to people in trouble and decided to organize a group at Kirn Junior High. Later on the group expanded to Abraham Lincoln and a small group at Wilson Junior H i g h was started which also extended to Tee Jay as the members became older. Although P.U.S.H. has the same goals as B;MAD (Body and Mind Against Drugs) it Is an entirely dimmmt pro~ gram using different methods PEOPLES and different ways of trying to reach out to the students. Anyone is in.vited to join the group because it places no special requirements on people wanting to join the group. Right now, there are approximately 15 members here at Tee Jay. Junior Jim Pauly, a P.U.S.H. member, said, "I would like to see more teacher support for the group." Many of the projects the group does for students requires the help of many peo- ple, Pauly said. Skit perfonned If !he group goes to an elementary school for just one day, the members will present an unrehearsed, short skit to the students to give them a basic idea of what the message is that they are trying to get across.

The first day consists of the members introducing themselves to the children and explaining what the group is a- bout. On the second day they may bring in a former drug user to talk to the children. An expert on drugs will come on the third day to give information about drugs such as marijuana. On the fourth day a film is presented to the children giving them even more informa· tiem about the clangers of drugs. Finally on the last day the skit is presented and the children are broken up into smaller groups to talk about .:'. ..ictivities of that week. ./ Junior Barb Pruett, a member of P.U.S.H ., said that the ,goal of the group is to create a drug-free society. Coming in March is the national convention of PRIDE, a drug prevention group from Omaha, of which P.U.S.H . is associated.

All those students were from Tee Jay and were com· peting in four different categories. The categories were ensemble acting, group mime, Reader's Theatre and Choral Reading. In order for the groups to make Super-State they had to first get a superior rating at the Jan. 21 District meet. They then advanced to the 83 school Regional meet that was held at Tee Jay on Feb. 4. Regional At the Regional contest, Tee Jay had students compet· ing in the one-act play as well as ensemble acting, group mime, Reader's Theatre and Choral Reading. According to John Gibson, drama teacher, a performance at the Regional meet had to 127 South M1ln Street first receive a '1' rating from the composite score of three judges. Out of the performances that received 'l' ratings, two performances were judged as outstanding and were allowed to go on to Super-State. Mr. Gibson said that the one-act play earned the reauired '1' rating, but did not receive the opportunity to advance to Super-State.

Sh: In depth Feb. 24, 1984 SE~lf-blame t1.1rns to teen .suicide By Jill Stivers Many articles have been written on the subject of teenage suicide. Most of them start out with statistics, like .. --every hour 57 teenagers in the United States attempt suickfe. --every rilay an average of 18 teenagers kill themselves, ~hat's 6,500 teenagers every year. There's the statistics, but what about those teenagers? The problem of suicide can be found in every community. Susan (not her real name) lives in Council Bluffs where she is a senior at one of the high schools. Su~an has at- ~empted suicide. Real incident After having problems with her boyfriend, she broke up with him. Thinking that she h:i.d to pay for the hurt she caused her boyfriend she tried to commit suicide. "I hated myself, I blamed 1ryself. Our whole world fell apart, and I felt I needed to _ be punished," Susan said. Susan tried to commit suicide four major times, overdosing on speed and slitting her wrists. One night she tried it again 3000 Avenue B Suicide is attempted in many ways and forms but the end result is always the same.

Anyone who really wants to kill them!:elves needs help, even if it's a hotline. They can listen and understand." This is just one story. What about the other 1 7 storie~ no one has heard today? And what about the 18 yesterday or the day before? Deb Pogemiller explained. "There just doesn't seem to be an answer to their problems, so they feel it's the only way out. Sometimes they attempt suicide as a cry for help, but don't really mean to kill themselves," Mrs. Pogemiller said. If one suspects someone might attempt suicide, that person should be taken seriously no matter how it might have been said. And if one is not sure about the situation they should come straight out and ask the person if they are thinking about attempting it, Operation Bridge Counselor Jim Marx said. BOB'S TOWING & GARAGE 1 00 Y2 South 16th 32 ~2811 328-0483 Family Nite Monday and Tuesday 34 Pearl Street 3020 W. Broadway In a survey at Tee Jay, 100 students were asked if they had ever tried suicide. Sixteen percent said yes, they had already tried it. Another 1 2 percent said they had thought about attempting suicide. This is at Tee Jay, not just statistics in the United States. "One of the top reasom. for suicide is family probierns. With all th_c drugs and other problems in the worid you would think they would be the main reasons. Cl.Jser families have a lower rate of suicide," Mr. Marx explained. Crisis line For the Omaha and Council Bluffs area there is a crisis number to call if there is no one else to talk to, which is open 24 hours. "We try to give them directions to help themselves," Barbara 'Wheelen. director of the crisis line, said. "Wher. we get a suicide caller w;:; try to find out the circumstances and how likely they are to kill themselves, then s';eps are taken to try and help them. If it is an emergency, we try to work fast," Mrs. Wheeler said. The crisis number is 444- 7443. According to a F<1mily Circle magazine article between 1955 and 1975 the suicide rate among young people rose 300 percent, whik the rat•! of general puhi:~ rose Jess than 20 percent.

Don Schwertley, supervisor of physical education and athletics, said there has been a "general decline in numbers of kids in athletics." Enrollmnet decline Mr. Schwertley said that part of the reason is a decline in enrollment. He said when he was athletic director at Tee J ay there were approximately 1,500 students whereas now there are 1,100. But in past successful sports, many "standout" athletes, participated in outsideof-school competition. Such is the case of the 1983 gymnastics team, who won the State meet. Five of the eight gymnasts who competed belong to either Sokol Gymnastics Club in Omaha, or the Council :aiuffs Gymnastics Club. The baseball program at Teo Jay is a strong one. Many of the players started when they were younger in the First Federal Savings 32nd and West Broadway 421 West Broadway PHONE 328-3803 THE PHARMACY LOUIE CARTA, R.P. 35th a nd 2nd Ave. 322-6266 Parks and Recreation program. Mr. Schwertley said, "Wrestling at Tee Jay is unique" due to the fact that the three coaches are not in the building (Tee Jay). Bud Meade and Mike Witt are both at Wilson Junior High, while Bob B e n s o n teaches at Bloomer Junior High. Early age To build up the programs, students should start learning fundamental skills in elementary school. Mr. Schwertley said we need to "introduce at an early age," skills to build up athletics. But there are, according to Mr. Schwertley, "no athletics in elementary (schools)." New league Presently parents are organizing a basketball league in the westend. S e v e n elementaries will have a team with some having two teams. operation of the school system, the group plans on playing in school gyms. One thing we must be cautious of, is not to build these I e a g u e s too powerful, to where the s tu d e n t s get "burned out. " They must learn basic skills, while at the same time have fun. In the next issue we will wrap up this series with what the students' reasons are for the decline. What are they doing now, and why many of the athletes stopped going out for sports? Events to bring busy week By Kirk Madsen With many events coming to a close in the month of February it should make for a busy week of sports. . Tomorrow the Ironman Club will host a City weightliftmg meet at Tee Jay. Abraham Lincoln, St. Albert and Lewis C:ei:it:_ral will be the other schools involved in the intracity compet1t10n. Providing there be any qualifiers from Districts, the girls' gymnastic squad will travel to Des Moines Hoover tomorrow to swing into action in the Regional meet. . Continuing today and tomorrow is the boys' State swimmmg and wrestling meet in Des Moines. Monday will match the Jackets against Lewis Central as as they begin first round District play.

On Feb. 3, the group performed for the first time in Omaha-better still, the first time ever in the entire state of Nebraska. Tremendous Jrio Genesis, a three-piece band comprised of Tony Banks, Phil Collins and Michael Rutherford, was accompanied by two hired American musicians. Drummer Chester Thompson and bassit /guitarist Darryl Stuermer round out the band on tour, making up for various overdubs done in the studio. Thompson has performed with Frank Zappa and has drummed for Genesis as far back as 1976. Si~t and sound These five all-star rock veterans were by no means shamed by the equipment surrounding them. Amplified through low-distortion speakers, the sound q_uality could not be matched by any other live act except Rush . Lighting variations Looming ominously above this magnificent stage were _a complete set of Varilites. !his was an expensive and tncky lighting technique performed by Showco of Dallas.

HARTER1S SERVICE and REPAIR AUTO REPAIRING OF ALL TYPES 2455-Sth Ave. 328-9526 Varilites, which position themselves hydraulically, created spectacular color schemes and, combined with heavy fog, made a breathtaking silhouette effect. Many are calling this tour one of Genesis' best ever, with a grand total of 26 t~ns of lighting equipment bemg transported from show to show. - Genesis is perhaps the only group to use Varilites exclusively; other bands like Iron Maiden and Triumph use them as an accessory. Persistent performance No doubt accustomed to such an elaborate stage, Genesis easily urged the crowd on for two and a half hours of excellent renditions of the band's studio material, including the closing set of 60's hits. Promoting its latest album, Genesis, the band was received well during many of the new songs. Review Blast from past Fans of Genesis' old material were not forgotten either. The lighting, being an integral part of the music's m o o d , reflected brilliantly during the early greats "The Lamb Lies Pown on Broadway," "The Musical Box" and "In the Cage." Collins proved that he is an excellent frontman for Genesis (replacing Peter Gabriel) as he entertained the crowd and the band alike with his offshoot antics. While on stage, Collins is also very serious, notably as he and Thompson entered a drum duet that preludes the riff-ladden "Los Endos." Omahans will no longer dispute Genesis' reign on their "Best Live Act" music awards, and all other groups must bow to the biggest moneymaker on the road today. ***** ilFIRsT~~J~~~~~ ~~~~ --- MAIN.

In the speech contest, which was held at Dennison, 19 students received a '1' rating. A '2' rating was received by 14 students and one student received a '3' rating, John Gibson, drama teacher, said. "For one week's work, that is outstanding," Mr. Gibson said. In the speech contest, students participated in 14 areas which include public address, dramatic acting, humorous acting, interpertive r e ad i n g (poetry and prose), literary program, original oratory, extemporaneous speaking, radio news announcing, expository address, storytelling, improvisational acting, book review and after dinner speaking. :Mr. Gibson sees many advantages for students who participated in the contest. The students learned to speak in front of people, meet students from other schools and they realized t h at other schools have drama departments just as fine as Tee Jay, Mr. Gibson said. " It's exciting getting to go in and compete. I think a lot of people are tired from large group one week and then g<>- ing to individual the next," Junior C i n d y Lustgraaf, drama student, said.

Freshmen bring school redesign, expansion Senior adivities By start in March Jill Stivers With the decision to move f r e s h m e n into the high schools, comes another decision, where to put them. Recently the architectural firm of Zenon and Beringer were hired to expand and rebuild the two high schools by the Council Bluffs School Board. The architects are now doing a study called the space utilization study, to see where space is needed, Mel McKem, Supervisor of buildings and grounds, said. Space needed Gaylord Anderson, principal, said, "More space is mainly needed for classrooms, lockers, a cafeteria, gym and TJ art seen through slides By Christy Donley Last year the art department produced a slideshow which was shown in Des Moines. This year the slide show moves to Kansas City's Crown Center April 13 and 14. Art Teachers Steve Peters and Joe McNamara- are the producers and presenters of the slideshow. The art in the slideshow represents work that has been done by the students from the last four years at. Tee Jay. Every year the slides are updated to include current students. Wide interest Mr. McNamara said, "We originally designed the slideshow to interest the students in the junior highs to get involved in the art program when they come to Tee Jay. The show is also for counselors, principals, other art departments and administrators to see what is going on in the art program at Tee Jay." Big honor Mr. Peters said, "Last year we took our slideshow to Des Moines, and it was received ,., ..... ":Tl-~-~---- very well. Now we are invited to take the show to Kansas City, so you can see this is quite a big honor." The slideshow will be presented in Kansas City at the Mid - West Multi - State Art Conference with representatives from eight states. also vocal and band rooms." "Three million dollars is the estimated cost for both high schools," Mr. McKem said, "but the real cost may be under or over the estimated budget figure. " Break ground The date planned to break ground will be this July and is planned to be fi nished by August of 1985, Golden Zenon, architect, said. "We tried to schedule most of the building process when the students were out of school, so there will be less confusion," Mr. Anderson said. e .~e \~c,~ By Robert Leitz During the month of March the senior class officers will be asking for volunteers for the senior class graduation committees. Senior C l a s s President Laura Jensen said the committee will be for class motto, class flower and class colors.

Two Editorial The Signal March 9, 1984 The Bear Hug Lac~ of interest plagues activities ly Jim Hug What has happened to the attitudes of students this year? It seems as if laziness and "don't care" attitudes ]lave plagued students all year long. Tonight at 7 p.m., there would have been a performance of our Roadshow. The theme would h a v c been "Roadshow International," and it would have been the talk of the school for the following week. There would have been at least two pages of the yearbook devoted to pictures and coverage of the annual event, coverage by The Signal and perhaps a performance for Cablevision on Channel 1 7. Roadshow impossible It may have even been held without students throwing coins and yelling obscenities at the acts. But we won't know. Due to the lack of interest and the fact that only 12 acts even tried out made the performance of the annual affair an impossibility. Drama Director John Gibson called the situation "absurd." He said, "It's real disappointing, b e c au s e we've never had to cancel a Roadshow before." Other ·activities In past years Mr. Gibson said anywhere from 28-35 acts tried out for the allschool Roadshow. He said that this year it seemed like "too many people are involved in other activities." Of the 1058 students who attend Tee Jay, 12 acts were formed to try out for the Roadshow. Everyone else was too busy. That's really rather funny, because of the 12 acts that tried out, most of those people were probably the same ones you see out for three sports a year, or involved in every other extracurricular activity they can be. To be realistic, the amount of students who attend our school and really don't care what happens with school activities is mind-boggling.

Diane Clark Angela Lantz, Juniors Editor's note: This letter is concerning the Tee .Jay-St. Albert boys' basketball game, Feb. 21, where fans on the Tee Jay side produced a rubber chicken that was dressed in St. Albert colors. The chicken after being swung around by its neck fro~ a rope was confiscated'. Later it was retrieved and made . an appearance between the third and fourth quarter break. Dor· ing the cheerleaders' cheer, where a basketball is normally slammed, the chicken was stuffed through the b~k.etball net.

March 9, 1984 In depth The Signal ........ LC learning option for students By Chene Davidson Most students think there are onl y two high schools in the Council Bluffs district - Tee J ay and Abraham Lincoln. This isn't true though. The Alternative Leaming Center (ALC) is another option for high school students. The ALC offers students choices that are not offered in the other schools. For instance, students enrolled in the ALC attend sessions, not semesters. There are eight sessions in a school year. At Tee Jay only seniors are allowed short day, but at the ALC students either attend morning, afternoon or evening classes. Classes are 40 minutes long. There are four periods in a regular school day at the ALC, compared to the seven 50 minute classes at Tee Jay. Another difference is the credit system. Students, who successfully complete a cla~s, are given a 1.4 of a credit. After four sessions a student has a full credit, ALC Principal Romola Fritz said. Size is different The size of the classes are also different. According to ALC Junior DeAnn Reed, there are only an average of ten to fifteen students in her classes. Reed would regularly be attending Abraham Lincoln but chose to go to the ALC !Jj in her sophomore year, because of the individual atten- . 'f:1 • tion students get from the teachers. According to other ALC students some reasons they went to the ALC is because of jobs, or because they wanted to graduate early. Some didn't get along at _""""' __ .... o other schools. Some girls become pregnant during their high school careers and go to the ALC to spend more time with their babies. Someone planning to attend the ALC should also take into consideration that there are no extracurricular activities at the ALC such as sports, cheerleading or drama. ALC students cannot attend a Tee Jay Prom or any other dance unless he or she is with a Tee Jay student, ~ccording to ALC English teacher Karen Hardman. Allowed to march Tee · Jay Sophomore Joan Hopkins said she attended the ALC for two sessions to get her lost credits from ninth grade. She then came to Tee Jay this year. Tee Jay Junior Tammy Boyd went to ALC for her sophomore year and one semester of this year. "In a year and a half at the ALC I only received 9% credits and it would have taken me about twice as long to graduate. By coming to Tee Jay I can still graduate next year. I'll have to go all day and work harder, but it's worth it," Boyd said. Mrs. Fritz said that sometimes students work at their own rate. But she said basically it's hard for an ALC student to keep up with a Tee Jay or Abraham Lincoln student, because they only have four classes a day compared to seven. Mrs. Fritz said that 65 students are enrolled in the morning and afternoon classes and only 34 in the evening classes. She also said that there is a list of students waiting to enroll in the ALC program. The usual time on the waiting list is 41/2 weeks. A maior milestone in most high school students' lives is graduation. ALC students are allowed to march with Abraham Lincoln or Tee Jay students on graduation day, but many choose not to. ilF°lftST~~J~~~~I~ f~~~ Reed felt that since s.he ,- didn't attend high school ~th I them she'd rather not, statmg that she would feel out of I place. - - · MAIN .

Marcks In the past two issues I have looked at a decline in enrollment and the \veight club, among others, as possible causes in the decline in athletic participation. Jobs are also a reason for such a decline. To really understand the reasoning behind the decline I talked with students to see why they aren't participating. Interest lost Senior Mike Schaner, who was the city wrestling champion as a freshman at Edison, said he didn't go out for wrestling in high school because "I lost interest." Dave Van Soelen, a senior who participated in football , was out as a sophomore, but decided not to go out as a junior due to a job on his grandfather's farm. Then as a senior he went out, because "my friends were goi ng out." Some students who took part in past years said they "don't like the coaches." New systems Lewis Central has a policy stating, if an individual is out for athletics, he or she is excused from pliysical education until that sport is completed. Would this help our athletic program? Another possible solution, is a 1/ 2 credit given for athletics. Camp for volleyballe By Kirk Madsen Volleyball may have ended its official season some time ago, but the training and fundamentals is something that takes place in the off-season. Currently at Tee Jay a volleyball camp for fifth and sixth grade girls is taking place on Monday nights in the Tee Jay Fieldhouse. Head Volleyball C o a c h Sharon Semler, who is helping out with the camp, said, "1be camp will last for six Monday nights up through March 26." Miss Semler said, "We just ended a camp for freshmen." She added that the freshman camp lasted for six weeks. Assistant Coach Lavonne Pierson, who is working at the camp, said, "The freshman squad looks good. They have a good attitude and have good skills."

I am not saying these solutions would solve all the problems, but if the bad aspects of these solutions would be taken seriously, they could be overcome. The problem is there, and a few solutions have been given. Maybe the administration could help in solving this problem that is haunting our athletic programs. By Ray Clark After a year without girls' track because of a lack of participation, the team is off and running. practicing for what could be a tough season. First Year Head Coach Lar~r Mitchell said, "I would like to see a few more girls out, but we do have some talent." According to Mr. Mitchell the team consists of around 20 girls. Of this number only two are seniors. They are Cindy Smith who lettered two years ago and Jayne Surber. "I look for Cindy Smith, Junior Brenda West and Sophomore Patty Kingonbe to do well for us in distance races," Mr. Mitchell said. Sophomores Kristie Bird, Tyleen Danielson, Thea Poast and Anisa Quandt were cited by Mr. Mitchell as good prospects in the sprinting events. Smith said, "I'm really looking forward to the start of the season. 111is team has a Jot of potential, and I'm anxious to see just how good we are." rs spik·es into action She said the future program "looks real promising." Miss Semler said there was a $3 entry fee to take part in the six week affair. This fee includes a camp T-shirt, ribbons, certificates and medals to be handed out at the last day of the camp. Miss Semler said, "There are 114 girls registered for the camp." Miss Semler said the junior varsity and varsity volleyball players and graduates are helping out with the camp. She said Senior Volleyball Player Jodi Wright is the camp coordinator. Wright said last year she did the project as part of the Talented and Gifted Program, but this year is doing it on her own time.

Joy Sowers, the president of the Booster Club, said, "The banquet consists of each parent bringing a salad or a covered dish." Lack of acts cancels Roadshow "Roadshow would have been this weekend, but why is there no Roadshow? Director John Gibson, drama, said, "I need 20 to 25 acts for a good 2 to 21h. hour Roadshow, and only 12 acts volunteered." Now that there is no Roadshow, Mr. Gibson has decided to have Roadshows and musicals on a rotating basis. Since this year there was the all-school musical, next year there will be a Roadshow if enough people volunteer. Mr. Gibson said. "I think it's a good idea to have the two on a rotating basis, but a lot of people are disappointed, because they were looking forward to it this year," Junior Drama Participant Jackie Hall said.

For the girls to ask guys out just once a year - does not seem to be justifiable. Due to the fact that there are plenty of young and exciting men roaming the halls of Tee Jay, many members of the female gender are dying to go out with them. Here's a golden opportunity. First step Take that first step and ask them out. Use this opportunity to spur your interest in asking guys out. Once you've asked a gentleman out, make sure you'll have enough money to treat him to a good time. No, asking him over to watch television doesn't count. Guys like to be treated to a good time just like girls. HE y Tf,E.. POSTER') ' 1A i fJ ir wA-S 6-~iAI& 70 8£ FREE!

During Christmas vacation, a dance was held at Peony Park's ballroom for high school students. The school with the most people there would win a "free" dance to be given at their school. There were not a lot of participants at this dance, but Tee Jay won with the most students participating. The so-called "free" dance we received was held March 2 and was not free! We, the partici~ants of that dance contest did not even get a discount, let alone in the dance for free. We also justified that we were participants from the contest. We feel Student Council, the sponsors of the dance, had no right to take over and make a profit off our efforts. Sincerely, (some of the participants) Jill Stivers Kiki Kohlhase Jack Andersen Paula Brown Scott Barnes Paul Engel Lori Hall Marty Edwards Kim Hann Cheri Moore Gary Adams Ray Clark Editor's Note: According to Don Moxley, activities director, the dance was misinterpreted as having free admission. He said Midwest Music agreed not to charge for their services, and didn't mean that the dance was· free. The admission at the dance was $1 and the profits paid for the security guard and the remainder was put into Twirp activities. Of the eleven students who signed the above letter, four are members of Student Council including the vice president and treasurer. · Editors face off Words from Wajda By Jerry Wajda Currently there is legislation in the U.S. Congress that would make organized prayer in public schools legal. To my great surprise and dismay it is being seriously considered, and it has a fair chance for approval. This legislation, which would become a Constitutional amendment, is foolhardy and dangerous to the people of the United States who have such a wide variety of religions and beliefs. God in school Some people argue that God should be put in the schools. I don't disagree that a lot of kids need a little religion, but the public school is not the place to give it to them. Our legislators are trying to moralize students whether they like it or not. are going to say that students have to sit and listen to someone give a prayer when they don't want to listen to it. You call this freedom of religion? I think not. If a student wants to pray in school, nothing is stopping him. I have yet to see a s.tudent get punished for saymg a prayer. March 23, 1984 The Signal Editorial on holy • issue Kaptain Kirk's Komments By Kirk Madsen Our Father who art in heaven hallowed be thy name Pardon me if you were offended by these words. I was puzzled on how to begin this article, but is there a better way to start a day, start a meeting, than with a prayer. With prayer a big part of our lives and the United States being called a free country, it is only logical that prayer be allowed in our schools if we wish. Not required If prayer is allowed in schools, how can we be offended if not required to bow our heads and pray. There are many different religious beliefs, and one should not take part in a voluntary prayer at school if one chooses not to. People talk about. separation of church and state, but did the makers of our constitution really mean no prayer in school. Referring to the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, I agree with the words of President Ronald Reagan. If this is passed, it would force students to sit and listen to a teacher or other official lead in a prayer. How can they possibly serve and satisfy all of the religions and beliefs that currently exist in our schools! Effort can be produd of pride Mr. Reagan said. "I have never believed that the oftquoted amendment was supposed to protect us from religion. It was to protect religion from government tyranny." Church and state I haven't even touched on the subject of separation of church and state. This would bring religion into a government run institution when the Constitution says that the government should be completely separate from any religion. What comes next? Are these officials going to tell us how and when to pray? Founded on freedom This country was founded on the premise of freedom of religion. Now the proponents Some people say Tee Jay has nothing to be proud of' that there is no h~pe or any effort should be given at all. If this is true, th ~ w.hy are drama students wmnmg State banners at SuperState? Why are the yearbo?k and The Signal staffs winning a wards? Why do we have t~e State champion gymnastics team? Why do we have a teacher, English Instructor R H. Panders, who has ta ht at Tee Jay for over 30 years? Effort. That is the one thing that these people and teams have. T hey have given their best and have succeeded. M ay b e our basketball and wrestling teams are not State champions, but those teams have at least given an efffort. Shouldn't we be proud of them? The people that say Tee Jay has no hope should give it a try and in their own way make an effort, whether it be in sports, extra curricular activities or academics. Who knows, we may have a few more champions on our hands. Pledge of Allegiance We learned the Pledge of Allegiance at an early age. In it contains the words, "one nation under God." If my memory is correct, I learned this in school. I don't know of a person who doesn't like to spend money. On every bill or coin in the United States the words "In God We Trust" appear. Are people offended by this? We are constantly hearing about the rights of minorities. Don't you think it's about time we listen to the majority speak their voice and remember upon which our nation was formed.

Westroa ds and 4514 South 24th Street Eight In depth The Signal March 23, 1984 Frosh move: integration concern By Jerry Wajda With the ninth graders coming to Tee Jay in two years a lot of changes will take place, most of them dealing with the students themselves. One of the main concerns is getting the freshmen integrated into the mainstream of the student body and in this way get them involved in schoof activities, according to Gaylord Anderson,, principal. According to Fred Maher, principal at Woodrow Wilson Junior High, there will be very few problems with the move. He feels there isn't much difference between the ninth graders and the tenth graders in starting at Tee Jay. Maturity Mr. Anderson feels that there might be a maturity problem, but nothing that can't be dealt with. One of the ways of integrating the students that will be implemented is putting them into the homerooms along with the upper classmen. This way they can mix in and make some friends from other grades. Another way is having a freshman team for every school - sport and possibly more if the number of participants warrants, Mr. Anderson said. However, the students from the junior highs (in Tee Jay's case Wilson and Edison) must merge to one or two teams when there was at least one team for each school at the junior high level, Bob Nielsen, physical education, said. These teams will likely be competing with other freshmen teams in the Metropolitan Conference League as Wilson and Kim's teams have previously done, according to Mr. Nielsen. According to Mr. Anderson an extra vice principal will be added to the staff and that he would be in charge of the curriculum. Additional counselor An extra counselor will also be added to deal with the extra influx of students. Jerry Brabec, vocal music director, was pleased with the extra number of students that the vocal music department would get, because of the ninth grade move. Some problems could arise, though. New music teacher Mr. Brabec is currently the only teacher instructing the vocal music classes. When the ninth graders are moved, an extra teacher will be required to take care of extra students taking the vocal music classes. John Gibson, drama instructor, was also pleased with what the move would do for the drama department. He doesn't think it will boost his numbers a lot, but it will give him more time to work with promising actors. John Kinsel, physical education, said that the main problem currently, is the inability of the building to house the students. Construction a savior "Hopefully that problem will be solved through the new construction," Mr. Kinsel said. Hopefully any other problems that come up will also be solved for the students' sake.

What dress should she get? For the past two months magazines have been advertising dresses and stores have their display windows filled with elegant dresses which makes the task of choosing one all the more difficult. According to Diane Fisher, salesperson at Cyndi's Bridal and Formal Wear, the main fe ature girls tend to be looking for in dresses are ruffles. "Most of the dresses have shorter, puffed sleeves with ruffled necks," Miss Fisher said. Trends Another thing she noticed about the trend of Prom dresses is that girls an~ willing to spend a lot more money than they might have a few years ago. "A lot of girls have jobs and with their parents helping them out they've been buying dresses that cost $90 or more," Miss Fisher said. "A lot of the dresses we modeled were worn with the sleeves off the shoulder and hoops were worn with the dresses, too," Junior Jeni McCormick said a b o u t the dresses she and other Tee Jay girls modeled for Salley's Town and Country. I mJjviduality According to Miss Fisher, individuality is another common characteristic among the girls looking for dresses since some stores only carry one of each type of dress. Brenda Hupka, salesperson at Brandeis, said that if a girl wants a dress that the store does not have in stock, it can order it for her. Salley's Town and Country also orders dresses for girls. "If we're going to order dresses, they must be sent in early enough, because they're sent to us from New York " Bea Jackson, salesperson ~t Salley's, said.

Since its early days with leader Syd Barrett, Pink Floyd has meandered through intricately complex themes to more contemporary, simpler music. Steadfast foundation However, one firm fixture that the band has always relied upon is the guitar expertise of David Gilmour. About Face, Gilmour's second solo project, strongly attests his worth in Pink Floyd. The soothing vocals and subtle, sharp guitar riffs he has contributed to countless Floyd LPs saturate each song on the new solo album. Not a clone About Face is not a perfect replica of his previous work, however. First Federal Savings 32nd and West Broadway 421 West Broadway PHONE 328-3803 "Blue Light" showcases magnificent guitar technique, but jazz horns complement Gilmour's vocals, creating a similar effect as found on Phil Collins' solo work. Gilmour is to be applauded on solving the problem of inaccessability faced by Teammate Roger Waters, bassist and songwriter for Pink Floyd. Review Short and sweet Conciseness alone allows "Murder" and "Out of the Blue" to come across with a very strong and clear message, whereas Waters would fill two records with music weighted down with his depressive obsession for hating war. With two tunes co-written by Pete Townshend of The Who, Gilmour has the perfect formula for success. HINKY DINKY We stand behind everything w~ sell, and that's a promise.

The art department also hopes to enter some papermache faces and forms, and also some carvings. Senior Jeri Hytrek said, "I am working on a bottle doll with a ceramic head and body.

Mr. Peters commented, "In the past, Tee Jay has usually come home with more ribbons than Abraham Lincoln. If we haven't, then we would receive more firs t place rilr bons." Ribbons are given to the top three places. Then fourth place receives honorable mention. There are two grand champions and two reserve grand champions.

So in conjunction with Tee Jay Cafeteria Man ager Joan Fillebeck, it was brought to Tee Jay. Big response According to Mrs. Fillebeck the response has been "overwhelming." She added that there has been nothing but compliments in regard to the spa0 0 ghetti bar. Mrs. Fillebeck said there was to be another spaghetti bar March 26, and if it was accepted as well as the last bar it could be expected a couple of times a month. Ms. Hentzler also said, "We strive to get the students what they want to eat, because the more they eat, the healthier thev are • C\ ~ and the happier they are." She also said any ideas to improve the lunch system are welcome. Addicts diverted With the changes made in the menu, more people are eating in the cafeteria. Even some of the Big Mac addicts are eating down' stairs these days. What's next for the cafeteria? Mrs. Fillebeck said that there is a possibility of a salad bar once the weather gets warmer. Senior T o d d Marshall summed it up best when he said, "It's not Spaghetti Works, but this isn't the same cafeteria I tried to get away from as a sophomore." To this we owe Ms. Hentzler, M r s .

The 1985-86 school year is the target that the School Board is aiming at to have ninth graders attend classes at the district's two high schools. In order to provide equal educational opportunities for secondary students and due to the d~clining enrollment in all schools in the Council Bluffs school system, the Ninth Grade Study Committee recommended the freshmen move to Dr. William Lepley, superintendent, in November of last year. Since 1970, enrollment has dropped steadily by 34 percent in the Council Bluffs school district. It has dropped from 15,336 to a present enrollment of 10, 164, a report by the committee explained. During the month of Felr ruary the architectural firm of Zennon-Beringer was hired to work with the faculties of Tee Jay and Alr raham Lincoln to find out what changes were needed concerning the facilities, Dr. Lepley said. Renovation necessary After meeting with the faculty at Tee Jay, the architects found that extensive work was needed. "The building was built poorly and uses space poorly, because of the time in which it was allotted to be built," Go'den Zennon, Jr. , architect, said at a Tee Jay faculty meeting held March 27. Because of the rebuilding needed at Tee Jay, the School Family Nite Monday and Tuesda y 34 Pearl Street 3020 W. Broadway Board raised the funding from $2.5 million to $3 million up to the current price of $5.5 million, Gaylord Anderson, principal, said. Two pb~s The expanding and rebuilding will be done iti two phases, because of the limited funding, Mr. Anderson said. In the first phase, the offices and counseling center will b e c om e specialized classrooms with the offices and counseling center then being moved to the library. The small. gym will in turn become the library with a balcony. Classrooms around the school will also be remodeled depending on their nt:ed. All subject areas will be in a specific part of the building, ~s. Zennon explained. There will be other building changes in the first phase. A new addition will be added to the west wing building. Also, new locker rooms, for both p h y s i ca 1 education classes and athletics will be built.

The finishing date for 'the second phase is still unlmown at this time. John Kinsel, physical education instructor, said, "The facilities should accommodate each sport so that travel to other facilities is unnecessary." Facility changes at Abraham Lincoln will not be as significant as those that will occur at Tee Jay, School Board President JoAnne Carrithers said. Business and art areas at Abraham Lincoln will be looked over for further renovation, Mr. Zennon said. Attendance areas Freshmen, during the 1985- 86 school year, that would have attended Edison and Wilson Junior Highs, will attend Tee Jay, Mrs. Carrithers said.

Panders started his teaching career at Tee Jay. At the age of 27, Mr. Panders began teaching in Blue Springs, Nebr., in 1947. His career has spanned 37 years, 31 of which were at Tee Jay. In 1949 Mr. Fan de rs married and with his bride, Phyllis, moved to Schuyler, Nebr. He stayed in Schuyler for four years where he taught English and drama. In 1953 Phyllis and R.H. moved to Council Bluffs and he began teaching at Tee Jay. He started as the drama and English teacher. According to Mr. Panders, in 1969 Dr. Harold Chappell, the assistant superintendent, selected Mr. Panders to a committee that developed the Humanities ci>urse at Tee Jay and Abraham Lincoln. Mr. Panders quit teaching drama in 1976 and has been teaching senior English, Humanities and Creative Writing ever since. "I had a lot of fantastic kids every year," Mr. Panders commented as one of the reasons he had for staying at Tee Jay. He also said, "The administration at Tee Jay is really fine. They have tried to help me in every way they could." The Panders plan to stay in Council Bluffs. They also plan to travel extensively. "He deserves the rest. He has worked really hard for so many years," Mrs. Panders said. According to Mrs. Panders, he'll be as busy as ever, but Teachers remember R.H. By Monica Reid The news is out. R.H. Panders is planning to retire at the end of the year after 31 years of service at Tee Jay. But, students are not the only ones who have reactions towards his retirement. Mike Bond, special educa!. tion teacher, attended Tee Jay during high school and had Mr. Panders for advanced drama and he also worked with him in a play at the Chanticleer Theatre. "He is a very talented man," Mr. Bond said about Mr. Panders. Mr. Maines mnembers Wayne Maines, Trades and Industry teacher, is another one of Mr. Panders' former students who attended Tee Jay. Mr. Maines had Mr. Panders for English. "He always stays the same," Mr. Maines said as he compared being a student of Mr. Panders to co-working with him. Another teacher who has worked with Mr. Panders, other than as a co-worker is Jerry Brabec, music teacher. Mr. Brabec, a Tee Jay graduate, said he has worked with Mr. Panders since he was in fourth grade. He participated in a summer drama program Mr. Panders taught.

However, one common denominator remains - class. There has always been the quest for the ultimate tuxedo or Prom dress, while some pursue lavish restaurant and hotel accommodations after Prom. One item that will bring out the aristocrat in anyone is the services of a limousine. Some find this to create an impressive entrance at Prom, while attracting much attention from peers. There are several limousine services in Omaha, probably the cheapest being Cadillac Limousine on North 85th Street. Its rates are $18.50 per hour for a nine-passenger limo with unlimited free mileage, according to a Cadillac Limousine salesperson. The more expensive fees run up to $20 an hour plus 20 cents per mile for a mandatory 11/ 2 hour use.

"If we are ever going to do anything, this will be the year to do it, with all of the senior leadership," Soccer Coach Al Vandenberg said. Seniors return Some of the top returning seniors on the team, cited by Mr. Vandenberg, are Robert Leitz, Rusty Armstrong, Cha Hyun Lee, Rodney McClelland, Bill W e t m o r e and George LeBlanc. Coach Vandenberg, who has coached the team for four years, described the team as "the best team I've ever had." There are 12-13 players returning from last year's team, Mr. Vandenberg said. Last year's team had a record of 6-3-1. "We had a good season last year, but if we play hard, I HINKY DINKY We stand behind everything we sell, and that's a promise. 3000 Avenue B think we can do better," LeBlanc said.

Coach Vandenberg said this means the players must pay their own league entry fees, pay for the referees and pay for their own uniforms. It costs the players a total of $45 during the season. Zennon Cup At the end of the season, the league teams with better records are invited to a tournament, with the final two teams playing in the Zennon Cup, Mr. Vandenberg said. The Zennon Cup winner is classified as the intercity champions. "I think we have a good chance to play in the finals," Junior Ken Leitz said. FOR RENT Buy this space for $2.50 an issue.

By Jeff Marcks Heading into a dual meet with Omaha Marian on Tuesday, the girls' tennis team will have its work cut out as Marian is one of the top girls' teams in the Metropolitan Conference. Coach Mike Bond said Marian, who finished in a tie for second in its Metro meet last year, will also be strong this season, along with Omaha Burke and Omaha Westside. Seniors Kim Anderson and Chris Donley and Juniors Chris Meyer and Monica Reid are the only returners from last year's team. Coach Bond expects them to be competitive. The girls are going to try to improve on a 1-8 record and a fifteenth place finish in the Metro meet recorded last year. Coach Bond said, "We've been able to practice outside one day," as of March 27, he said. "We've been practicing in the main gym." Coach Bond, in his second year as coach, said he has "more" depth than last year. He said, "They all have potential," but expects Laura Faust and Kelly Meekins to be the stronger sophomores on the squad. As for intracity competition, Coach Bond would "like to beat Abraham Lincoln again (in tournaments)." Unlike past years, Tee Jay will compete against St. Albert, which Coach Bond likes. He said, "It gives you another team to look at." Tennis team serving to win By Kirk Madsen "Strong as a team" is how Tennis Coach Mike Hoffman described this year's boys' tennis squad. Coach Hoffman said, "The last couple of years we have had some real good depth." He added that the Jackets are returning eight varsity lettermen from last fall's squad. Tee Jay will face St. Albert in a dual meet at Robert's Park on Tuesday. Mr. Hoffman said the Jackets are the defending champs at the Atlantic and City tournaments. He said, "A goal of ours is to repeat winning the two tournaments." Coach Hoffman added, "I'd like to see someone qualify for the State tournament on an individual baSis." The team posted a 3-6 record in fall tennis where it competed against Metropolitan Conference teams. In the spring Tee Jay will compete strictly against Iowa schools.

Excitement of the moment It could be the excitement of the moment that contributes the most to girls tripping and embarrassing themselves.

May 4, 1984 The Signal Indepth Three Costs rise for accommodations By Kirk Madsen With the ninth grade students in the School District coming to Tee Jay and Abraham Lincoln in the 1985-86 school year there are going to be several costly expenses to accommodate them. Costs for construction were estimated by the Ninth Grade Recommendation Committee at $2.5 to $3 million at the beginning of the school year. Since then the cost has taken a rapid increase. School Board President J a-- Ann Carrithers said the estimated cost is now up to $5.5 million. Mrs. Carrithers said, "Of that money about $3.9 million will go to Tee Jay." The additional $1.6 million will be spent at Abraham Lincoln. Mrs. Carrithers said, "When the architects got involved they discovered many problems." Findings at Tee Jay proved that there were many old and obsolete areas which needed improved. New plumbing and electrical work was another area which needed improvement, she added. Do it right first time The School Board decided if the members were going to get into the building program to do it right the first ime, so they wouldn't have to come back at a later date, Mrs. Carrithers said. Construction is to be done in two phases. Some of the plans under the first phase call for a new fieldhouse, music department, library, more departmentalization of rooms New phase will alter personnel By Jill Carstens Along with all the changes in facilities, some alterations will also occur for personnel, concerning the ninth grade move to the high schools. A c c o r d i n g to Principal Gaylord Anderson, he has not been notified as to any changes that will take place. Council Bluffs School District's Director of Employee Relations Dick Christie said that as soon as the School Board and architects have a pretty good handle on everything, involving reconstruction, some decisions will be made. He reassured that the open teaching positions will be filled by teachers in the Council Bluffs School District. He said that it is a rather complicated process, and it takes a lot of time to get to this phase. According to Mr. Christie, there are two aspects of the phase. First, knowing what positions are needed and secondly, choosing the procedures to go through. Just.

The second phase calls for additional parking and athletic fields. The School Board recently purchased the land needed for this for $70,000. However money to develop the second phase in unavailable, Carrithers said. School House Fund A big question which people may be wondering is how the move is going to be financed. "Money fs available in a School House Fund or Site Fund," Mrs. Carrithers said. She added that this means there is no need for a bond issue or to raise taxes. In 1978 the community voted on a levy for money to be set aside in a School House Fund. The money would be available if the need ever came for expansion, renovation or construction work in the schools. Besides construction costs, one area which could be costly is bussing. PHOTOGRAPHY BY HOVINGA Phone 322-3422 Information provided by the Ninth Grade Recommendation Committee states that there will be 257 ninth grade students eligible for transportation to Abraham Lincoln. The number at Tee Jay is 54 ninth graders eligible for transportation. Dr. William Lepley, Superintendent of Schools, said scheduling of busses wouldn't be the big problem. He added that with additional bussing the biggest problem is cost. Even with ·the estimated cost rising, it will still see a savings for the District in the long run, Principal Gaylord Anderson said.

The boy harriers strided to a 2-4 dual record, while the girls had only one competitor and did not "field a team." Girls' golf was in full swing with a fourth place finish from Senior DeAnna: Kahre in the Metro meet. With hard work and determination, the boys' gymnastics team brought home the "gold" from Waverly. Two individual champions were also crowned. They were freshman Todd Crouse in floor exercise and Junior Ted Haynes, in the vault. Led by Kevin Ferguson and Jim Hug, the boys' swimmers concluded with a 7-6 dual record. Although Ferguson and Hug didn't qualify for the State meet, they do ·hold their share of school records.

The largest money-making publicity item is a widespread tour. However, the Alan Parsons Proiect enjoys nationwide attention without ever stepping into the spotlight. Public exposure Ammonia Avenue, Parsons' latest effort, affords the Project further exposure through Top 40 hits "Prime Time" and "Don't Answer Me." These triumphs abound des-· pite the fact that the band has never toured, although it has released seven albums in as many years. . . The music contamed m these collections all point toward Pink Floyd, with its state - of - the - art synthesizers and a complying, yet forceful guitar. Structured vocals "' This glamorous sound is a perfect backdrop for the four or five reappearing lead vo- . cals in the Alan Parsons Project. The loose structure of the group creates a fresh effect on each track of Ammonia Avenue, as on all other previous LPs. The title cut of the new album presents lyrical content equal to that of the band's debut record, Tales of Mystery and Imagination. This LP dealt exclusively with the literary writings of Edgar Allen Poe, set to Parsons' tasteful art-rock. Expert engineering The resemblence to Pink Floyd is lagely due to similar engineering techniques. In fact, P a r s o n s engineered Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon in 1973, which has held in the Top 100 sales charts ever since. Parsons now engineers his own music;, plus programs all Fairlight computer keyboards. He is joined by guitarist extraordinaire Eric Woolfson and Ian Bairnson, along with consistent lead vocal appearances from Chris Rainbow over the years. Instrumental extra Vocals are not overemphasized, however. Each Parsons Project LP contains one and sometimes two instrumental tracks. With a constant stream ot onlookers g r o w i n g ever. larger, Parsons may indeed forfeit his privacy and make a very long-awaited appearance on the road. **** * e ua·a dO•• ara• RATINGS: *****Excellent &Silt $ ****Very Good ***Good **Fair *Poor 9 , ........

Could it be a bicentennial letter to go with this mail box?! "b" Junior Jim Kelley's car has the bicentennial look. "c" The GOOD TIMES MACHINE carries the bicentennial spirit with the traditional stars and stripes. 1976 marked the bicentennial of American Independence. Uncle sam's famous red, white and blue stars and stripes were seen in department stores, on greeting cards, party favors, cars, busses, and even mailboxes. Many improvements have been made over the past 200 years. The telephone, T,V., space travel and new cures for diseases are a few of the accomplishments men have invented and discovered. Wouldn't George Washington be surprised to find out he wouldn't have to wear those wooden teeth anymore? 5 6 Good Times are everywhere within the halls of Tee Jay. But just what are "Good Times?" It means something different to every person. It could be the satisfaction of something done well, an "A" you worked hard for, but weren't sure you'd get. To some it's 3:05 and the last bell. What ever it is to you, make the most of it. You'll be able to look back and say, "Yes, I had a good time in high school," Once it's over, you can't go back.

The lights went out and darkness surrounded the audience. There was a feeling of not being able to trust your neighbor until the lights reappeared. The eight member cast of Mousetrap, by Agatha Christie, left the audience guessing until the very end of the show. "It was a tremendous show," said director Mike Stenzel. "The house was full the first night and even fuller the next night. All in all I was very pleased with the whole show." Mousetrap originally opened in London in 1952 and it is still running today. It is one of the longest running plays ever and it is still drawing a huge crowd. Mollie entered the room of darkness only to find Mrs. Bo yle, the second blind mouse to get caught in the trap. "I promised I would kill them all and now you're the last littlr. mouse," said Trotter. M 0 u s e t r a p "Leave her alone! Can't you see she's all in?

Mr. Sweeney used recorded music to pull past and present together and by playing songs from Symphony composition to the Beatles to contemporary rock groups.

We went through great periods of change, from building lemonade stands to our first newspaper delivery job. We studied together, we fought against each other, but we always came back together. Remember the homework, the questions we had, the great hours of studying and before we realized it the sands of time began to run out. Our thirteen years together were suddenly coming to a fast close. But again the question of where are we going. As with the comic character looking into her crystal ball our futures are but questions to us yet. Perhaps some of us will be bankers, some stage performers, or some even just fishermen. Where ever we go we will be sometimes happy and sometimes sad. But where ever we go will go all the memories of all the Good Times we had just being together.

"This was the first time a Tee Jay Girls' Swim Team has ever won a meet," said Coach Bruce Schomburg. The Boys' Swim Team also recorded their best season with a 7-7 record. The season started out slow because of injuries but the team really put things together toward the end. All swimmers improved their individual records in their events said Coach Schomburg. Five new school records were set this season. In the Metro Division Relays they had three 3rd place finishes, including the 800 free-style, 200 butterfly relay and the diving relay set by Tom Hood and Ken Clark. Junior Scott Robertson also set two of the new records while scoring the most team points. At Districts diver Tom Hood placed 4th to become Tee Jay's first state swim meet qualifier.

"Winning the Lewis Central Invitational was the highlight of our season." said Coach Steve Hardiman. One reason for the record may be due to the loss of such wrestlers as Dennis Clark and Kirk Johnson to varsity ranks after the L.C. Invitational. Outstanding wrestlers throughout the season were Clark, 11-4; Jim Athay, 10-4; and Steve Thayer, 8-4. 1. The masked man sophomore Dennis Clark tries to escape from an opponent. 2.

According to Coach Steve Hardiman, "Chuck wrestles with a lot of gut determination. He goes out onto the mat with the attitude that he can't be beat. He got to where he is today through dedication and sacrifice." Senior Bill Salvo, 167 lb., also traveled to state but was forced to default in the semifinals because of an ankle injury. Salvo has a record of 29-2, he took 2nd at the North Invitational, 1st at the C.B. and Tri-Center Invitationals and 1st in Metro and Districts. ro.

"Hello, precinct 35, Carter 146, Ford 130 . . . " If you were the person on the other end of this telephone conversaton, chances are you may have been speaking with a Student Council member from Tee Jay. Members of the council volunteered to assist with the News Election Service as one of their many activities. Each participant was assigned a polling place and they called in election results to Chicago. Tee Jay's 30 member council planned and organized a variety of activities including the Student Exchange with A.L. and the annual Twirp Week. In early year festivities such as the Homecoming and Sno·ball dances, representatives devoted a great deal of their time to make them successful. Both the dances proved popular by adding a jingle to the council's fund. . . . a Twirp Week ac tivity sponsored by the Student Council. I Juniors Peggy Vanderpool and Pat· Riley discuss the topic '"Penal Reform'" as they prepare for the National Forensics League. Tee Jay debaters dedicated themselves to accomplish three main goals. First- they wanted to become charter members of the National Forensics League. Second- they wanted to hold their own tournament at Tee Jay. It would be called the Monticello Invitational and be the first one held here in ten years. Thirdly- they wanted to advance to the District Debate Tournament. Two of the three goals were accomplished. As for the third "ony six teams qualify for Districts and our team finished seventh," Anita Eckley, sponsor said. Officers were President Pat Riley, Vice-President Sonja Perkins, Secretary Renee Duke, Treasurers Chantay Ware and Carolyn Mccampbell, Press Release Peggy Vanderpool, Sergeant at Arms Jim Van Riper. Debaters preparing to ju mp into ac tion are Ms. Eckley, sponsor, Stan Sullivan, Peggy Vanderpool, Sonja Perkins, Teresa Barnett, Jim Va nRiper, Carolyn Mccampbell, Chantay Ware, Bill Stultz, Kevin Monroe, Tom Allen, David Atchley, Robert Vickers, Renee Duke and Ru ss Ulmer. 177 178 Using an air brush Tee Jay artists painted murals and stripes on vans and cars. Joe McNamara, sponsor for the newly formed Mural and Pinstriping Club said the group started on their own cars first with hopes of maybe going into business for themselves.

The only qualification for participating in these games is that you have to be a member of a group called Campus Life. Campus Life is an organization for Christ in which all denominations are welcome. Members participate in many activities such as car-washes and campouts in Colorado where they go mountain climbing, horseback riding, ropelling and shooting the rapids.

According to Doug Muehlig, a sponsor for Quill and Scroll, the purpose of the organization is "to honor those students who did an outstanding job in journalism." Each nominee received a letter and those who accepted the honor received a pin and a subscription to Quill and Scroll magazine.

LEFT: Luis Pena Fuentes joins sophomore, Tim Budd while taking part in one of his many interests, singing. ABOVE: "The key to it all is the rhythm," Mr. MacNeill tells Luis Pena Fuentes. The American Field Service chapter at Tee Jay had one last chance to either shape up or ship out. They chose the latter. Paula Rosenthal, sponsor, commented, "Interest in the club has been dropping over the last few years." The fact that the AFS club folded did not hinder Luis Pena Fuentes, the exchange student from Chile. Luis made his new home with the Anthony Narmi family. His "new brother" Randy is a junior. Adapting to his new family and school was hard at first because he spoke mainly Spanish and very little English. Luis enjoys such things as basketball, volleyball, track, soccer and singing. He can also play the drums as well as the piano and guitar. 187 188 TJRA president Linda Howard rides in off the muddy trail of horseback riding, one of the many planned activities the club sponsors throughout the year. Th oma5 Je-fferscn R e. c 're a..:t r o Y) A ssocia.. -t.Jon The Girls Recreation Association of yesterday became the Thomas Jefferson Recreation Association of today. A Title IX ruling caused the change. It stated there should be no discrimination based on sex in schools and that equal access to all programs and facilities was mandatory. Even though the name change occured it had no real effect on the club. No boys showed any interest in joining. Activities went as usual with initiation, horseback riding, roller skating, camping, volleyball and other planned events throughout the year. Club officers were: Linda Howard, president; Joanie Arthur, vice president; Carmen Gutierrez, secretary; Shari Moores, treasurer; Kris Guiles, activities chairman; Jenny Hering, recording secretary. Sophomore Mary Swanson models a T JRA original during the club's initiation. "Ready on the set, take two," was a phrase frequently heard in the auditorium as the Thespians rehearsed. Thespians is an international honor society created for drama students interested in the theatre and performing arts. Their central purpose is to further an interest in drama; to become a member you must have put in 75 hours working on or behind the stage. One main project was the production of a film representing different teachers at Tee Jay. This film held the Roadshow together. Money-makers for the year included bake sales and a jewelry sale. The money raised was used to sponsor the drama banquet at the Bellevue Queen.

Wearing Medieval costumes and drinking Wassail were all part of a Madrigal Treat presented by the Senior Madrigal at the Winter concert. According to director Roger MacNeill it was a "major undertaking" for the group and he has hopes of expanding the event into a full scale dinner in the future. Performing for the State PTA Convention in Des Moines and the South Dakota State Music Directors Convention were highlights of Madrigal's music schedule. The schedule included 25- 30 programs for community and social functions. Members of the J.V. Madrigal performed at various school concerts and productions. Those in this group include Roger Weatherill, Tim Green, Greg McNeal, Larry Wajda, Tim Budd, Keith Schieffer and Steve Thayer.

The club, sponsored by Edward Bremmer, was organized with the purpose of stimulating interest in political events and affairs. They spent the pre-election period trying to get closer to the candidates and experiences of campaigning. Some of the club members attended speaking events by Vice Presidential candidates Dole and Mondale. There were formerly two clubs, the Teenage Republican Club and the Teenage Democratic Club, now the two are combined. Mr. Bremmer stressed that the Political Action Club involves a good deal of independence. 193 194 FRONT: Deb Bohlen, Terry Tanner, Jenny Jensen, Diane DeGeorge, Vicki fox, Peggy Minor, Collette Bigelow, Karen McKern, Lori Sweeney, Terri Bowen, Joni Adamson, Linda Rajcevich. Right face, left flank and guide right were some of the terms applied to the Porn Pon Squad as they traveled with the Marching Band. They attended the southwest Iowa Band Jamboree in Clarinda, the Columbus Day Parade in Omaha and the Veterans Day Parade here in the Council Bluffs. With Title IX rulings the squad took on double duties by performing at both boys' and girls' home basketball games. Other appearances of the group included performances at orientation for upcoming sophomores, flashing scores at gymnastic meets, decorating lockers and promoting school spirit. Money making projects consisted of bake sales, popcorn ball sales, car washes, a paper drive in which the squad collected a total of three tons of papers and a Porn Pon Clinic for those sophomores who wanted to try out for the squad the next year. ·-- BACK: Michelle Drake, Tammy Fleming, Teresa Bock, Denice Rock, Linda Shudak, Jenny Paul, Tammy Rowe, Cindy Wacker, Lori Arrick, Collette Heath, Julie Dunn.

Thomas Jefferson High School 2501 West Broadway Volume 61 Council Bluffs, Iowa When confronted by the hassle. disorder, and challenge of a new addition to our building. Tee Joy students and facul - ty hod to overcome the problems of construction. "Although the noise was enough to drive us out. we worl~ed around it with as much enthusiasm as possible." said senior Chris Hansen . With all the changes coming about. we hod a lot of adjustments to mol~e. A lot of worl' hod to to l~e place in order to mol~e the transition for the ninth graders os smooth as possible. '" It's hard to imagine that half of the student body at Tee Joy wil l be new." said sophomore Christi Commondello . Under Construction Tee J\:]y was definitely under construction and we were learning to live with the mess. Construction affected everyone. The football players lost a practice field , the porl~ing situation worsened . noise levels rose and dust flew everywhere. "We lost a practice field . because of the construction but it will all be worth it when we ore finished. " said junior Al fl,ubio . "I tried not to let the dust and noise bother me. but sometimes it couldn 't be avoided ," said junior Erin O 'Grody. "My students lil'e to watch the con - struction worl,, they've learned a lot about construction worl' from spectoting ," said Special Education teacher John Gan l's. One class even reported a construction worl,er moon woll,ing on the second floor of the new building. " I couldn't believe it!" said sophomore Dove Nelson. "He was trying to entertain the class. " Through the good and the bod . Tee Joy students and faculty persevered. "It tol~es more than construction worl~ to drive the Yel lowjocl~ets away," said junior Grenda Guswell.

Those thoughts ranged from th~ relief of lazy, hazy, crazy days, to the excitement of getting a summer job, to being able to stay out late. or perhaps being able to watch more T.V. During the summer. the Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. were some of the major events watched on T.V. Geing able to see everything on T.V. was almost lil~e being there. Gut at the end of all those thoughts there was always the one word that not everyone was thrilled about: School. School marl~ed the end of summer and the beginning of a year full of worl~ and determination. Tee Jay students and faculty had a harder time getting adjusted to school because of all of the construction worl~ that was going on. in and around the building. Parts of the building were being torn down while other new parts were being added on. Students and teachers had to learn how to listen and speol~ above the sounds of walls being crashed in by wrecl~ing balls and jacl~ hammers drilling away at unw onted cement. Our theme. Under Construction. not only deals with the fact that Tee Joy itself was undergoing construction but also with the fact that inside the walls. the windows. and the doors of Tee Jay there were students whose lives. opinions and ideas were being constucted .

"I lil~e to go to Roel~ n' Oowl on Friday nights," said junior Sheri Hiller. Roel~ n' Oowl was every Friday night from 12 o .m. to J o .m. at Orunswicl~ Dowling Alley. For $5, students could bowl w ith their friends. Going to movies and cruising Oroodwoy were favorites for Friday night entertainment. It seemed as if Saturdays were the best day of the whole weel~end , that is. if you didn't hove to worl~ . "I spend my weel~ends worl~ing or I go out with my boyfriend," said junior Angie Pogge. Spending the afternoon shopping would seem lil~e the perfect day for anyone. The Westroods and Crossroads were popular places to spend money and also to hove a good time w ith friends . If one was confined to Council Oluffs, the Midlands Moll and Richmon Gordmon were some of the more desirable alternatives for.shopping. For some reason. shopping didn't always appeal to the guys. "I li ~e to go hunting a nd fishing." said junior Corey Hobbs. "I sleep and ploy basl~etboll ," said senior Kendall Clemens. " My mom won ' t le t me go anywhere ," said junior Robby Summerville. "I lil~e to go dancing and out to eat," said junior Gong Hye Kwon. Favorite dance places of Tee Joy students included Ouffolo Gilly 's and the Edge of Town. Stu~:lents could go dancing with their friends and mol~e new ones, too. "I lil~e to go out to Guff's because there's women out there," said sophomore Todd Roberts. If a student was on a dote, o stroll through Central Porl~ could be a romantic time. The Old Morl~e t was also a fun place to spend on evening . When the evening was coming to o close. or if one hod o curfew , people would drive up and down Oroodwoy to see who was still out a nd what was going on. before heading hom e. Once again there w as o ne whole weel~ before Friday night. What would everyone do?

How many times did I hear, "We'll get bocl'i to you"? I l'inow a girl who applied at thirteen places and was never hired . Some of the lucl'iier people were hired at the first place they applied . "I applied at a couple of places , but • older people were hired first," said sophomore Michelle Fort. Going to my firs t inteNiew mode me really neNous. I couldn't decide what to wear or what to soy. Then ofter my inteNiew was over the manager shool'i my sweaty hand . I was so neNous. A few weel'is later when I called bocl'i, they wonted to l'inow when I could start WOrl'iing . Next, I hod the first day to worry about. I tried to do everything right but I couldn't help to mess up. Still it was l'iind of frightening , meeting all those new people and trying to learn all their names. I just l'iept reminding myself that I was getting paid for all this and I was having a little fun along the way. I guess it really wasn't so bod ofter all . I remembered when my friend 13ong Hye Kwon said, "I need to get a job." I just laughed and thought bocl'i to when I said that. One of the major reasons students lil'ie having a job was obvious - money! "I worl'i so my mom won't hove to pay all my expenses, " sa id junior Porn Geo II . "I need ex tra money for school and for going out." sa id junior Tommy Plunl'iett. There were advantages and disadvantages to having o job. Worl'iing late and weel'iends were among the major complaints . "I don't get enough hours," said sophomore Doug r-ogers . Doug worl'ied o t Town and Country Trucl'i Center. Worl'iing conditions, rude customers , and grouchy managers were also a t the top of the complaint list. "I don't lil'ie closing ," said senior Joni Paez. Joni worl'ied at the Pizzo Hut. "Sometimes my job interferes wi th my schoolworl'i," said sophomore Amy Daley. Personally I lil'ie having o job and I especially lil'ie all the money I hove to spend . "I lil'ie my hours Co t Wolgreens) closing before ten o 'clod'i ," said senior Michelle Murray. Wages varied depending on where students worl'ied . Salaries ranged anywhere from two dollars to minimum wage ($J .J5) to five dollars per hour. It's great not having to bug Mom or Dad everytime I need some money. I thinl'i they apprecia te it too .

''I've seen several of my friends shopping at the Thrift Stores," said senior Ken Leitz. Many teenagers were found rummaging through old sweaters and fadeti blue jeans at the neighborhood Salvation Army or Thrift Store. Fashion varied greatly from preppie to trendy to trashy. The style students chose reflected how each person sow himself. The economical style was the Goodwill lool~ . A typical Goodwill outfit was on old faded pair of blue jeans. o plain white t-shirt and o cardigan sweater. "Cardigans ore comfortable and you con always wear your dad's." said junior Jill Aldredge. As the generation gap closed . parents were handing out their charge cords for their l~ids to buy the some clothes they wore thirty years earlier. Gut the students were paying three times as much. New wove rod~ revived '50s fashion as well as the '20s . Along with them come the rolled up jeans. big sweaters. leather jocl~ets . dropped waistlines and beads. Although some students chose the cheaper styles, there were students A faded blue peasant skirt with suspenders. b lack boots. textured hose. and a big blouse portrays the new style. Junior Tracy Clapper's outfit was purchased at The Limited. Photo by Frank Faust. who were willing to pay the extra $20 for designer names. Grand names that were found around the halls of Tee Joy were Esprit. Guess. Gasoline and Forenzo. (which could only be purchased at The Limited in Omaha). "The Limited is o newer store at the Westroods that carries all the latest fashion." said senior Jocl~ie Holl. Hair cuts tool~ on the shorter. more messy lool~ and some were even shoved. The styles left the ears exposed for big earrings. Earrings come in all different colors including fluorescents. Along with the fluorescent earrings come the sweatshirts. socl~s. sweaters. bathing suits and almost anything else. " Fluorescents didn't lost very long. but everyone hod them ... said sophomore Dove Nelson. Even before spring was officially here . many students were wearing shorts . P.onging from Oermudo's to woll~ing shorts to Hawaiian prints, all were a common sight in the halls. For a more basic fashion lool~ . students stayed in style with a pair of · Levi's and a sweatshirt. Clothes lil~e these never go out of style. "Styles come and go but Levi's always lost." said sophomore Grion Menching. Copy by Garb Pruett and Louro Foust pages by Fronl~ Faust .,,.

"I thinl~ Madonna is changing female music," said junior Wendy Wolfe. Cindy Lauper, an old face with a new image, was also a favorite . "She's So Unusual," was the name of her hit album which also said a little about herself. She supported all-star w restling in which she helped defend MN's title. Then there was Prince.

"Hey! Hey! It's class time! Time to wa l~ e up and pay attention ." Whi le many teachers tried to persuade their students to pay attention, rnony students disregarded the teachers' comments. The morning announcements were also shrugged off without rnuch of on effort. Oesides. the students hod more important things to worry about: cramming for that quiz, getting what's-hername's phone number; and co tching the latest gossip . It wasn't until the student hod been assigned a 7-poge research paper in English, hod a particularly great speol~er in Understanding People, or when report cords come out that students actually thought about academics .

"Construction seemed to be the main point of interest for Tee Jay students, " said sophomore Kevin Waugh. Tee Joy underwent construction for improvement; as for as academics w ere concerned there was a lot of noise and dust but everyone maintained a good a ttitude and orl d around it. As the year proceeded , studen ts w ent on fieldtrips to everywhere from the zoo to the Douglas County Courthouse . Oesides field trips, guest eo ~e rs began to be a regular port of the curriculum for some classes.

Copy and pages by Oorb Pruett Academics Division 13 NEVER A DULL MOMENT WITH FROGS, PIGS, JOKES One of the reasons that drama class was well lil~ed was the teacher, John Gibson . "I like Mr. Gibson because he's funny. He always tells jol~es and hos a crazy · laugh," said sophomore Andrea INin. Another reason that everyone lil~ed the class was that students were always doing something . They never just sot in the room . "I lil~ed getting involved ·with school events ," said sophomore Tammy Wilson. At the beginning of the first semester the drama students gave speeches about themselves. They spol~e about their hobbies. families , where they were born. etc. The next project was interpreting stories. Mr. Gibson gave an example by telling a story that had the whole class excited . When the students started telling their stories they were no match for Mr. Gibson. They couldn't interpret a story as well as he could. One of the more interesting ports of the class was the mime unit. Students did two solo mimes and a group mime . I liked mime because it gave us a chance to communicate without words," said sophomore Soro Hansen . We also hod a special guest come to our classes and help us with mime, Rici~ Smith, professional mimist. The most fascinating thing about him was that he was deaf.. All during the second semester students hod to read plays , 12 plays , 6 each nine weel~s . They also hod to act out one of the ploys for their final . They hod a lot of fun in the class but they also hod to worl~ very hard. Copy by Dione Simpson and Jean Freemon . One of the more exciting parts of biology was the study of environmen ts and going to Riverside Perl~ . , At Riverside we studied different environments and the organisms tha t live in the environments. 14 Academics -· . "I lil~ed wandering around in the woods lool~ing for birds, " said sophomore Andrea INine. Then came the study of cells or cytology. How boring can life get? Well, life con be pretty boring when we have to learn about atoms , the ports of atoms and how they move. Next come the end of the semester and the beginning of new classes . Zoology was on the schedule for many people. We thought this class was going to be a breeze. Dissect a few animals, tol~e tests over the dissection, and watch o co_uple .of movies . Well , not quite so. There was more worl~ involved . We had to tol~e notes, learn vocabulary, answer questions from reading guides, and tal~e tests . It was not as fun as it sounded . The fun part come next. We were off to the zoo. We thought it was going to be great. We'd sool~ in some rays , relax , no hard worl~ involved . Wrongo! They gave us o pocl~et to do. There went the rays we were going to catch. We woll~ed around the zoo trying to · fill in the pocl~et. We were hot and tired , some of the concession stands were not open and we hod to leave around 1 :JO. We come bocl~ to school j ust in time for seventh hour. If that wasn't the pits . On to bigger and better things . Dissections . l3etter than the zoo? "They are gross," said sophomore Noelle Hansen . There were several things to dissect and everyone hod o different opinion of each . Sophomore Stacie Dofner said , " It was fun because I lil~ed to see what was inside the animals ." We will admit some pretty gross things did happen . Some people cut the heads and noses off of the pigs . They cut the claws off of crayfish and dug the eyes out of the fish . Some people cu t their worms into small pieces. A lot of the girls could not lool~ at the dissected animals. All in all the classes weren't bod . In fact, some were fun if you put a lot into it, worl~ed really hard and tri ed your best.

"I lil~ed exercising at the beginning of the class the most," said junior Rondo Mothershed. What were the favorite activities of the Physical Education classes? Among the P.E. teachers, John Kinsel enjoyed the weight training bloc!~ . Sharon Semler and Lavonne Pierson both chose bowling and the senior sl~i trip as their favorite activities. Then ofter giving it a moment of thought, 13ob Nielsen decided mini-courses were definitely the best! Deciding sometimes headache. what activities to turned out to pion be a "We always hove to try to get a variety," said Miss Pierson. Although the some overall pion was used the post three or four years, according to Miss Semler, it still tool~ a little juggling to accommodate the vast number of students and the loci~ of space for the P.E. classes. "We can't do much individually with the junior and senior classes ," said Miss Semler. Lorge classes meant more large group activities such as volleyball for the juniors and seniors . The sophomores , however, hod more of a variety with floor hocl~ey and oriol tennis . "I lil~ed the g rading scale because it gives everyone on equal chance ," said junior Lorry 13oetteger. Participation and attendance were the two l~ey foct9rs determining the -~ grading system . "You don't hove to 13E the best, you just hove to try'. " said s~phomore Toni Gates .

Academics 17 LIVING LITTLE How many people J,new what went on in the little house? Located in the bocl' of the porl,ing lot, the little house offered a Special Education Worl' Experience Program . Students were given the opportunity to earn money and obtain class credit at the some time. Area companies contracted students to do many jobs. Regency Lubricants hired the students to fill 2000 ten pound bags of sand and salt mixture during the ice storms of 198J in the Western United States. Senior Don Gillespie and Mrs. Mory Daley vividly remembered the garage full of salt and sand. Filling out on application, getting along with the boss and increasing speed on the assembly line type job were some of the things stressed during class hours. Know ing how to use a business machine was a boost when filling o ut on o pp I ico t i on . Lam i no tors , Xerox machines, ond cash registers were all SKILLS BUILD HOUSE FUTURE there in the little house for hands-on experience. After their classes many of the students spent their afternoon worl,ing at a job out in the community. Students were placed in o non-competitive job atmosphere to gain experience. Senior Don Gillespie worl,ed at the Vocotiondl Development Center. Don performed many different jobs, and received pay according to the job. Senior Robert Gore worl,ed at Sherbondy's Gorden Center. "The things I learned helped me find o job," said Robert. Family living sl,ills were also stressed in the little house. How to prepare meals and 1,nowing what nutritional values different types of food hove. were port of the program. Students prepared and sold caramel apples in the student lounge to help pay for a special Thanl,sgiving feast. "I put the sticl's in the apples. Then I wrapped and carried them over to school," said sophomore Mott Wetmore. Two twenty-pound turl,ey s were purchased with the money raised from the apple soles . Along with the turl,ey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and pumphin pie, were seNed with all the trimmings . "I thought the turl,ey was the best port." said Robert. " J liJ,ed eating it better than mol,ing it," said Mott. This Special Education Worl' Ex - perience Program stotted out as o T.J .-A.L. joint pilot program at the Career Center. A.L.'s died out while T.J.'s hos become_ a model for other's programs. Three years ofter moving into the little house. Mrs . Daley and her students hove learned to adjust to the loci' of space and heat. Mrs . Daley has turned the program into a thriving program which con he lp students m ove ahead in their futures.

Academics 21 SPEAKERS TO SCHOOL ADD CLASS MECHANICS When woll~ing to a class in the south end of the building, many students encountered mouth watering aromas and maybe just a few that weren't. 13osic Foods not only taught students how to cool~ but also taught them what types of nutritional values each food contained and what functions they performed in your body. "If we mode tacos, we would read to see what nutrients ground beef hod or see what functions cheese performed in your body," said sophomore Joy Pierce. Each student would do a three day capsule. The first two days were spent learning the nutritional value of the food that was to be prepared and copying the recipe. The next day was spent actually preparing the food . "Mrs. Pot Goos always mode you feel comfortable and you always \~ new that she cored about you. You weren't just another student," said Joy. 13osic Clothing was another elective that students found to suit their needs. Students learned ports of the machine and how to run on electronic sewing machine. There were many things that were learned about fabric preparation and which fabrics were easier to wor\~ with. 13osic Clothing was a full-year course . Each student must complete one project containing certain requirements such as buttonholes. zippers or collars. Students mode on array of different clothing such as sl~irts . pants , shirts, jocl ets. and jumpsuits. "\ tool~ 13osic Clothing because I pion on going into the fashion field and I thought I hod better learn how to sew." said junior Gong Hye Kwon . At the end of the course, students watched as senior Angelo Lontz and junior Angie Groymon received a new hairstyle and new mol~e up tips by T rendsetters. Along with teaching Gosic Clothing. Mrs. Judy Hoppes also taug ht Family Living. Students learned about family rela - tionships and how to get along w ith parents , sisters. and brothers. Students also watched many films depicting some of the problems which may arise in family life_ Copy and pages by Kathy uiel . 22 Acodernics It's finally over and we're glad to be done with another Moth class, but some people said it really wasn't so bod. With a wide variety of Moth classes such as 13usiness Moth, Algebra and Geometry, students learned everything from mol~ing change and balancing checl~bool~s to solving equations and memorizing theorems. Mrs. Diano Mether's Gusiness Moth class learned about fractions and decimals. They hod a lot of story problems and they also learned how to balance bool~s and write checl~s . "I l~ed the class and a lot of my friends were in the class which mol~es it more fun. " said sophomore Korry Low. One thing people l~new about Moth was that they couldn't just sleep it off or sl~ip it". Sophomore f\eno Harold suggested, pay attention and do your homeworl~ ... in order to do well in class. Some students were glad to be out of their Moth classes for a while. Some of the things probably remembered best about Mr. Garry Pogemiller's Geometry class were . "Equations! Equations!" according to sophomore Daisy Stogdill. The class focused on theorems and radicals as well. People would probably even admit to reciting theorems and equations while doing dishes or falling asleep at night. In Algebra J -4 classes with Mr. Charl es Crouse. they learned quadratic equations. variables . radicals a nd rational numbers. "There were assignments everyday, but if you hod questions. Mr. Crouse was always there to help," said sophomore Grenda Lorenzen . Mr. Joel~ P.osenthol's Vocational Moth class learned fractions , measuring distance, and decimals. In Trigonometry they learned how to use sine , cos. and tangent. Copy by Andrea !Nine Junior Troy Gates tool~ Gosic Auto Mechanics as a sophomore and Career Auto Mechanics as a junior. "Oosic Au to Mechanics was mainly bool~worl~ that helped you understand how a car worl~ed ," said junior Troy Oates . Career Auto Mechanics covered three periods, the first hour was classroom worl~ followed by two hours of hands-on worl~ in the shop. Hondo Motors donated four motorcycles so that students could to l~e them apart, worl ~ on them, and hove a better understanding and appreciation of the operation of motorcycles and their maintenance.

Goth students and car owners benefited . Students received experience, while car owners were charged only for ports. Gesides wrenches and ratchets , students were also found using bondsows , table sows, and planers ... not in Auto Mechanics but in Woodshop. Students learned the basics, such as how to use tools and machinery along with cutting with the groin or against the groin, or how for to sand the wood . After learning the basics, students chose special projects designated by teacher Tom Redlinger. "Tol,ing woodshop in junior high gave me a head start," said junior Troy Gates .

The anticipation of becoming a senior, and graduation. combined with the fear of planning a career and starting a family ofter High School, constantly crossed junior minds . College was also weighing on many students' minds . Grades hod to be l~ept up in hopes of earning scholarships and * • grants to help cushion the blow of college expenses . However, grades and college weren't the only things on juniors' minds. There were always parties to thinl~ about. and Saturday night's dote. and what to wear to the dance. Eleventh grade was also the year when many jocl~ets hod their own car. "Hoving my own car gave me a lot \. Gaining o n his Saint Albert opponent. junior Tim Owen clears a hurdle.

Along with a feeling of independence. many juniors began coming out of their shells and becoming more involved. "As a sophomore I was timid and shy. This year I just turned loose and went crazy, " said junior Todd Reisis. Many juniors could be found at school activities. Juniors Wes Doughman and Jim Gowmon participated in the P.ot Paci~ during bosl~etbol l season . "I really enjoyed cheerleoding this year. I met a lot of new and interesting people ." said junior Shari Madsen . After all the football games. Snowball , basl~etboll , and Prom , the j unior year was over. "I can't believe it' s over.

Porn Pon members practice a routine for an upcoming basketball game. 8ond members .. Porn Pon, and flog corps worl~ed together and hod a lot of fun through the year. Practices were long and hard. There were four routines , Wild Wild West, On 8roodwoy, Puttin' on the Ritz , and Chester. To learn these in time for contest' and football season, summer practices were held from 9-11 and during school from 7 -8 in the morning . When 8ond and Porn Pon performed at the home football games , there were new girl.s on the field. They were the flog corps . They worl~ed very hard in learning routines. "It was fun but practices were hard ," said junior Susie Soles. It was hard for bond members to get used to the flogs. This was the first year they performed with ten girls swinging poles around . They usually stood near the sidelines. Porn Pon also hod port in this group . Their practices were longer. It was hard to get 20 girls doing the some thing. They usually didn't lmow where to go until they were on the field. "Some of the seniors l~new little bits of the routines , then ofter figuring out where to go and hearing the bond a few times . we would go and finish the routines ," said sophomore Kristyn Moore. When everyone was together. with all the practicing that was done, they tool~ first place in Clorinda , Iowa on October 6. There was one other bond in the AA class. This class was determined by the top 20% of the enrollment of about 400 schools . A weel~ later we went to Lewis Central for All-State . There were many bonds from the AA class.

In French there were the dreaded conjugations of verbs and homeworl~ almost every night. At one time we hod a visitor named Jeon More. He was with us for a few days and we learned a lot about Fronce first hand, money, cities and transportation . In l3otony we went to the l3otonicol Center in Des Moines . The only thing that sticl~s in my mind was on the trip home Corey Hobbs told Mr. Mil~e Hale he was sicl~ . Mr. Hale thought he was jol~ing but stopped just to be safe. He was surprised when Corey really did get sicl~ . In English we hod to do boo l~ reports, not written , but oral group reports . We hod to write critiques about each other in class . John Hanno was less than thrilled at our use of grammar and spelling; he made us tol~e a test over them , and then we moved to bigger and better things : Shol~espeore s Julius Caesar. Tall~ about impossible! It really mode me wish I l~new what he was tall~ing about. One· day Mr. Hanna told us he was :'scored" because of low test scores . He turned on a video tape of Julius Caesar and let us try to figure it out for ourselves . because it seemed explona- ·tions did no good . When the end of my sophomore year finally come, mini-courses began . (Each mini was designed for individual lil ~es and abilities .) We found we only hod seven days left. The traditional nine days were cut short to allow teachers time to pocl~ for the ninth grade move. All in all , it wasn't so bod . The year was over and there was no way to relive it, but I th nl~ if I was allowed to go bocl~ . I wouldn't change a thing . And now I'm a junior.

Copy and pages by Ka thy Quiel~ MOBILITY Mov1 MANY M ILES Sophomores 107 ZITS SOME HAVE 'EM SOME There was one thing that a lot of people hod in common , especially among high school students. This thing they hod in common wasn't something people lil~ed. Most students couldn 't help being a port of this similarity. This thing I'm toll~ing about is the dreaded "ZIT" or pimple (according to Webster's dictionary: a prominent inflamed elevation of the shin or eruption on the face). Some people hove this similarity worse than others. Some hove one or two, but the range of this problem is uncountable. Some people who hove lots of eruptions on their face don't seem to try to cover them up. l3ut there ore many methods of covering up this problem. Keeping your hands up by your face worl~s. Pulling your hair down in front of your face also hides them very well. Many females cover them with mol~e-up . Guys who hove just one con use a bond-aid and tell people that they cut themselves shoving. l3ut what exactly causes the dreaded "zit"? In a suNey during first semester, students stated many different causes . Most students said that it was from oily sl~in and not l~eeping your face clean . Sophomore Michelle Fort said that she thought that eating sweet foods and not l~eeping yourself clean caused zits . Not many of the students suNeyed hod seen a dermatologist for a "zit" problem. It seemed unnecessary, since l~eeping your face clean got rid of most people's zits. Gut for some, even l~eeping your face clean didn't worl~. Now one might thinl~ that I went to the dermatologist because of one or two nasty little zits . Let's just soy that it was to help me write this copy. Was that on embarrassing experience!

Immediately following, the other side of the room was dorl~ened but this time without warning . Students and teachers alil~e jol~ed around about not being able to continue the school day. Li ttle did they now that that joke was soon to become ·a reali ty. Secretaries in the Attendance Office, Main Office, and Counseling Center w ent around to the different classrooms at 1 p .m . and notified the teachers that school would be dismissed at 1: 15 p .m . 11 O Sophomores and that the buses would be at school at 1 :JO p.m . Sophomore Tommy Wilson was supposed to tal~e her final exam in Mr. Charles Crouse's Algebra class during 7th hour. "It mode school exciting that day. Our final in Mr. Crouse's class was delayed a day because of the lights," said Tommy. The reason why the lights and all the electricity in the school went out was because the main generator that supplied all that energy blew up and shortcircuited . Perhaps the most difficult tasl ~ to accomplish in the dorl~ was trying to ope n one's ocl~er . Granted, there w e re people in the halls with lighters and a few custodia ns hod flashlights but those people could not possibly be everywhere at once. My locke r was on the firs t floor and since I didn't hove a ny lights I j ust l~ept guessing until I fo und the right combination," said senior Susan Kaufman.

Many businesses supported Thomas Jefferson throughout the years. and still continue to do so. [)y purchasing ads. they not only supported us. but they also helped their businesses grow and become more popular. Hundreds of students and adults lool~ through the yearbool~s each year to see Senior Kip Lambrecht not only uses office and art supplies from school, but also other equipment which is from places that he lp support us. the different ads which restauran ts . banl~s . photography studios , funeral homes, and many other places sponsor. After seeing these, people tend to keep these places in mind and support their local and metropolitan businesses. 1977 Graduate, Morty 8roo l~ . a member of the State 8onl~ and Trust employees, helped us with the final stages of their ad mal~ ing it current and up to dote. Joel~ Holder not only contributed to the ad section . but also to the senior section , as approximately :i/ 4 of the pictures we received were tol~en by him . Sophomore Tammy Wilson said, "I enjoy banking at Council Bluff's Savings Bank, even though I don't write many checks." Sophomore Don Korner said that he ool~s forward to a 8ig Moc and fries at McDonald's everyday for lunch . We , the Yeorbool~ staff. would lil~e to than!~ all of the businesses and companies for their financial and moral support. Copy and pages by Deb Carlson.

As on auto mechanics teacher, Mr. Ege taught more than just how to construct on auto body or rebuild on engine. He taught us how to appreciate life. Although he worl~ed on cars and owned a car we saw him ride his bicycle to and from school almost doily. This was also how he shared with us his sense of humor.
