r T.he n'.ew admmisfration was ~ organ_ized and State High ' studef!tS ,became the ·glue that would bind two bu·ildings together. Despite the separ_ating force of We·sce~ly P:i;rkway, we learned. . .to think <:>f ourselves as pa~t of ·one school. , Feeling a part of one sch9ol ;-vas ' only the'beginning. As the year progressed, ,joint activit!_e~ su_:h as joiQ.t ~tu'dent coun~il, showed 5hat we could think an9, act as one school. We made-decisions aoout our futures, such as whether or not to,go to college, or ...... :What we really wanted to do Vfith the ~est 6f our, lives. , We kn~vy that the rest ·of the 'rstudent body would 'be supportive of our efforts. Standardized tescs, school _events, college visitat~ons, career plans, and all -our hopes~ and dreams were ,joyfully shared during the year as ~q_dents prepared ,to take the ~world by storin.

Through it all, we _compromised, with parents, teac~ers, , other students, and administrat0rs, to make decisions r that would ben~fit everyone. We practiced /weighing·the advantages and.disadvantages, aware ~hat wh~n we were MEETING IN THE MIDDLE, we were well on· our way to a, brig9t and hopeful future! ~ 1

Magic filled the year. This year the motto was "Keep the Magic" and the students sparkled in the new system. Spirit was high as the year progressed, with students greeting Homecoming and Powder -puff with equal enthusiasm. We remembered the good times from previous

years; and as the year went on, we added new memories of special times. Seniors spent their time filling out applications and checking their mailboxes, while juniors took their standardized tests. Throughout it all, we remained enchanted by the magic of the times!

In all the hustle and bustle of our lives, sometimes the essen tial academic portion of school was over looked. Although no student existed who had not occasionally missed a homework assignment or two, State High students were, as a general rule, dedicated to their

studies, to the delight of their teachers. Although occasionally the student body had to compromise their personal time for their homework, we knew that our studies were the key to success, and were willing to MEET IN THE MIDDLE for that achievement!

T'S A GROUP EFFORT THE WAY I SAW IT ' " I always talk more

Andrea Reede

30路 ACADEMICS

State College High School was a true melting pot of all cultures.

This provided many viewpoints and experiences to aid in the learning process. Teachers, departments, and often the whole school took advantage of the diversity to inspire team work and cooperation. Many classes at State High revolved entirely around groups. The infamous "lab group", "gym team", and "kitchen" showed well-defined group efforts.

"Study groups", "gro ups of friends", and "lunch groups" were also important.

The students found these groups to be challenging and rewarding. Jason Reckner said, "Being in groups has helped my social skills and helped me pass my

classes." Kim Goldsberry points out that, "School group experiences have taught me the importance of teamwork and cooperation." Students also pointed out that the group work can cause problems. "I find it difficult to work in a science lab group because one person ends up doing all the work," said Rob Clouser.

Bethany Pulkkinen said, "Group assignments are often difficult to complete because every student has afternoon and evening activities which prevent out of school work."

Group projects became an important part of the State High experience. This provided many useful aspects but also created problems.

--Valedictorian

0 BE THE BEST The State College School Board had no idea of the furor to come when they announced that this year the graduating class would include a valedictorian. They soon discovered that the issue touched off a storm in the competitive atmosphere of State High. Some students and faculty felt that it was unfair to highlight the efforts of one when the difference in the grade point average between the valedictorian and salutatorian could be measured in thou sandths. Others felt that the student who achieved the rank of first in class deserved the extra recognition. Both sides quickly took strong emotional stances on the highly charged issue.

As the year progressed, howev-

er, both sides seemed to realize that compromise was needed. The con side brought up the need for review of the controversial weighted grade system. Dissenters in the past have pointed out that some non-weighted classes are more difficult than their weighted counterparts or that the weighted system punishes those students who chose to take electives in addition to their major classes. The School Board later announced that they were in the process of reviewing the grading policy, with the results of that review to be announced later in the year.

Although controversial, the recognition of valedictorian did give students one more reason to challenge themselves academically.

THE WAY I SAW IT "I feel that it is important to recognize scholastic achievement, but I feel we need to reevaluate the grading policy used to decide on a valedictorian. However, I'm glad that this year's valedictorian will finally receive the credit that he or she deserves."

EARNING TO DO

THE WAY I SAW IT "I have lived on a farm all my life and am now learning things I never even knew were considered Ag." -Thomas Harpster

34 â&#x20AC;˘ ACADEMICS

Many students chose to enroll in the technical programs to supplement the academic classes while in high school. Agriculture education, drafting, electronics, metal shop, and wood shop were offered as hands-on elective courses to juniors and seniors.

Agriculture education provided students with a wide variety of experiences in the field of agriculture. Most of the students carried college preparatory schedules while obtaining basic agricultural knowledge. Other students have expressed their success in learning valuable information. "I'm going to be a dairy farmer and Ag has helped me learn about all of the resources I will need to use," ex~ pressed Eric Stine, a senior enrolled in the program for four years.

The drafting classes also were based on hands-on experience.

Students learned the basics of architectural and technical drawing by using pencils on drawing boards. When the basics were es-

tablished, students were introduced to the new age of technology and CAD, Computer Assisted Drawing.

Electronics, a part of the industrial arts program, is a challenging course of study. "It's more than hands-on projects, you have to learn the theories behind electronics," said Mike Long.

The metal shop provided students with a chance for creative expression. "I enjoy creating art with metal," said Howard Grubb.

The program provided students with many skills from lathe work to casting.

The wood shop gave a chance to show creative talents and learn some basic wood working skills. "I really enjoyed woodshop. It's a nice break from the normal classroom and structure," said Nancy Young.

The experiences and projects that students were involved with provided diversity in schedules and activities.

The AP offered many opportunities for students to use their creative abil ities.

HEY! LOOK AT ME. Eric Young tries co gee his friends to take notice of him. The AP offered a more personalized atmosphere, one in which a student could get more attention.

Sharing and Learning

CLOSER ENVIRONMENT The Alternative Program offered its students an open campus, smaller classes and a friendly atmosphere. To ensure this friendly atmosphere, the staff and students participated in many activities both in and out of school. In the beginning of the year, the whole school went on an overnight retreat. It was a great way for the students and teachers to get to know each other early in the year.

Twelfth grader Marcie Grodevant said, "It was a lot of fun. I met a lot of new people and it made my classes more fun." In the fall, the entire student body watched a play performed by the Negro Ensemble. In late winter, the AP was privileged with a private screening

of Hamlet, starring Mel Gibson.

"It was a great movie, and a chance I wouldn't normally have had at another school," said Justin Filer.

The AP allowed students the chance to pursue interests differently than in the traditional high school. Courses of a wider variety were offered, such as anthropology, environmenta1 issues, and American nature reading. Time was made for private music lessons, dance lessons, Penn State classes, and more. Students could graduate early by taking more classes in a year.

Through its smaller, closer environment, the AP made students' education more interesting.

THE WAY I SAW IT "I really liked going to the Alternative Program this year because it gave me the freedom to be able to develop into the person I really am. Since I could take courses I wanted to take and had been interested in taking, I actually learned more than I would have in a normal high school environment."

The College Hunt

REPARE FOR THE FUTURE THE WAY I SAW IT "The most complicated part of the college application was deciding what major to declare.'; Jen Biddle

3 1' • ACADEMICS

The signatures, the essays, the questions, the letters of recommendation, and the check; all were parts of the college application. State High sent nearly 79 percent of its graduates on to post secondary education. The junior year of high school was spent searching for the perfect place(s) to continue learning and prepare for the real world. The senior year was spent filling out all the papers it took to get accepted to the school of your dreams. Students made plans for trade school, technical school, small colleges, and large universities.

The juniors were busy with college visitations, and decisions on what to pursue in furthering their education. Monica Fleeger felt

fortunate. "As a junior, it is nice to have already decided where I want to continue my education, now all I have to do is get accepted."

The seniors felt mixed emotions toward life after high school. "I am so relieved to know that I have plans for two days after graduation. I will start at Penn State in the College of Education," said Jim Wyland. Other students are looking forward to the availability of freetime and recreational activities.

"The process of applying to colleges is stressful because of the essays. School work had to be compromised to write them," said Steve Berry. This thought was shared by many of the students and faculty.

I CANT REMEMBER Andre.a Zugg reviews materials which were used in past classes. Col· lege applications often asked to reflect upon a book or material read in previous school classes.

VO-TECH

LTERNATIVE SCHOOL THE WAY I SAW IT

'There's more freedom to try things on our own at the tech. The teachers don't hang around unless we need help."

Dennis Hockenberry

42 • ACADEMICS

Like the Alternative Program, the Vocational Technical Program (Vo-Tech) was another form of high school education. Students from l 0th through 12th grades took part in a variety of shops.

Not only did they select their trade, but they also took academic courses to prepare them for the business world.

The school, located in Pleasant Gap, was a central location for the four participating school districts.

The students attended the Votech school for roughly one semester a year. Seniors attended the first and third nine weeks, and the juniors, the second and fourth.

This allowed the seniors to graduate in April at the Vo-Tech school and in June with State High.

While at the high school, stu-

dents took academic courses. Because of the different schedules, two English and two Social Studies classes were required for all three years. One of the English classes was geared towards technical reading and writing while the other was directed toward business.

At the Vo-Tech school, students gained practical experience in a job-like setting. The training received helped students to get good jobs right out of high school. VoTech students also had chances to further their education after high school. Some have gone to trade schools, community colleges, and universities. The favorite schools were Penn State and the Pennsylvania School of Technology in Williamsport.

A Working Experience

HERE'S YOUR EXCUSE I

Most students were absent from school at some time during the year. This means they must have had an excuse note before they left on an "educational t rip" or when they returned to school. When a student returned from being absent they had to see Mr. Gary Deivert and Mrs. Til Kocher at the attendance desk and convince them that the absence was legal. Then the student had to show every teacher this small piece of pink paper to prove that he was not just skipping that period. Occasionally, this paper

got lost among the items in the typical messy locker or stolen by a teacher before it made its rounds throughout the eight periods. This was especially unnerving in gym because the penalty was a drop in letter grade for each unexcused absence from class. Students also needed excuses for being late to school. This process sometimes tested one's creative thinking in writing an excuse that was legal. Running out of gas was not one of them. Most students wished there was no such thing as the excuse note.

THE WAY I SAW IT ¡ "I hated it when I ran to first period only to hear the bell ring just before I got to the door. After this use of vital energy which I had needed to make it through a full day of school, I had to go all the way back to the office to get an excuse note allowing me to enter my first period class. I sometimes wished the words 'excuse note' were not in the English vocabulary."

46 â&#x20AC;˘ ACADEMICS

State High offered much more than just drafting. The program was trying to introduce the technology students would encounter in the workforce. A slow growth over the last 5 years has resulted in 7 classes of drafting a day. The students in these classes learned to work with a variety of technological equipment. The software won by TSA students enabled the use of CAD (Computer-Aided Drafting and Design) and other design programs. This program incorporated the use of media equipment: plotters, laser printers, and ink jet printers. To recreate images, the students learned to use digitizing tablets, scanners, Sound boards, and even a canon zap shot still

frame video camera. Projects this past year also involved an anamator and a targa program. By importing and exporting video and computer images, students were able to design and prepare commercial promotions.

Students have been transforming their mental images into workable plans. Auto Cad enabled three dimensional objects to be viewed on a two dimensional surface. The advanced technology allowed a person to produce the designs imagined.

Sonya Hall, a senior, justified her time in drafting by saying, "Technology education helps prepare students for the future and helps make informed career decisions."

PROBLEM SOLVING. Drafting and design is simply the solving of problems using physical imagery. Maggie Super concentrates on com· pleting her problem's solution.

ANIMATION AND DIGITIZING EXCITEMENT! Using the integracion of various tech· nologicaJ equipment, David Johnson develops a design. Students experience the types of as· signmentS they could encounter in the work· force.

As the bell rang to announce the end of another day, the halls of State High filled with a teeming mass of people. As we discussed our plans for the coming weekend and sympathized with each other's troubles, the differences be tween students and staff faded as we

blended into a com mon entity. Although it did not always result in a perfect balance, State High worked hard to see that everyone could be comfort able with the decisions made. Our MEETING IN THE MIDDLE insured that everything would work out for the best!

While some teachers used finals week to give a 'last' test, others probed the stu dents' memory of the emire year. The success one achieved on finals had a di rect impact on the future.

by saying, "Finals have given me good practice for college." Often times it was the study practice which influ enced a person's success on exams. "Although I usually wait until the Last minute to study, I do well on my final exams," said Mark Muller.

Henry Napolean was frustrated when, "I studied all week and still failed the test!" This obviously wasn't the case for every student.

Despite the joys and frustrations of. final exams, they were inevitable, and had to be conquered before gradu acing.

"The hardest thing about dating is caking the first seep, and asking that special per son out on a date."

- Douglas N. Callenberger

ome memorable moments will be the many experiences we had on dates. The first date was usually awkward because of concern about what co wear, how to act, and whether you'll have to bear the introduction to his/her parents. George Weller said, "I hate it when her parents quiz me on my future plans like what career I intend to pursue." Double dates made it more comfort able for some. "Sometimes it was a lot easier to go out

with two ocher people than just you and your date," said J ulie Dearing.

Murphy's law proved true on many dates. Something embarrassing would happen, SPoiling the date. "My most disastrous date," said Jeanie Garbrick, "was when my date dropped a piece of pizza on my lap."

Whether the dates resulted in a long relationship or just a great friendship, they will always be remembered.

raduation, the moment we had all been waiting for. Years of tedious memorization and practical application had finally paid off. No longer would we have to sit through study halls or eat in a high school cafeteria, we were on our way to bigger and better things. It was the end of the suffering through classes in which we had no inter-

est. We had finally "grown up."

For most of us, graduation did not become a "reality" until we ordered our caps and gowns.

Land -lubbers were challenged by badminton, running laps, soccer, lacrosse, volleyball and basketball, to name a few. For those not afraid of getting in over their heads, swimming was offered in the form

of laps, aerobics, water polo, diving, and snorkling.

VIEWPOINT " It's really hard to get back into the swing of things if you're gone for a week. I like it when a teacher doesn't require that the work is made up. It makes it easier on the students."

- Hannah Grey

and vacation were a few of the reasons seniors were absent this year. Although an everyday absence was a relief for a hardworking student, the mountain of "make-up" work was not. Students were forced to sacrifice study halls and even lunch periods to get caught up. After a week on a trip, senior Justin Kessinger said, "If I had a dollar for every inch of

make-up work I had, I wouldn't be here." In addition to all the make-up work, students had to remain abreast of the current course work, which proved to be difficult. " I hated coming back and being totally lost in my classes," said Kent Robbins. Graduation was certainly proof that seniors were able to overcome the mounds of make-up work.

KING OF THE ROAD! As Scott Bur ke's parking job proves, sometimes it took a little ere· ativity to get the best spaces.

.__,.... ne of the many priviliges seniors received was spaces in the North Building parking lot, a privilege which had to be fought for depending on how early we arrived in the morning. The adage followed by most seniors was "Early to bed, early to rise makes a parking space a worthy prize."

Around ten after eight in the morning, tension mounted as people , who were once friends, fought vigorously for a

space between two red lines. Until they were fined, some students were not above using the space between two blue lines. If there were no spaces available in the North parking lot, students had two other options: Parking at Welch Pool or parking with juniors and sophomores at the South parking lot.

Memories "These are the best days of your life."

Sound familiar? On the average, how many times has a high school st udent h eard that phrase from teachers, parents, their friends, and relatives? Ironic wasn 't it that when asked what their most memorable school event was, most stuha rd d en ts were pressed to think of an example. One would hope that in twelve years of English, math, science, history, not to mention all of the other electives which filled up the school day, something truly mernor able must have happened.

There were a few who did rem ember those rare experiences. Brian Broome related that an unforgettable moment was, "My first day when I spent four hours

ro. JUNIORS

in the counseling office doing nothing." Sarah Koss reminisced about her elementary days, "When I was in third grade, I threw paper mache at one of my friends and I had to sit with my head down the entire period." Everything that could go wrong went wrong for Laura Bartell who said, "My car didn't start, I slipped walking up the steps and my books went flying all over the place." Speaking for many students who agreed completely with him Tom Weston answered, "Today, because I remember it most clearly."

Unfortunately, the general bevy of responses consisted of negative situations. Oh well, perhaps bad days just stick in the mind better than good.

Long term projects, one of the most dreaded phrases for high school students. Term papers, group projects, book reports, the list seemed endless. They seemed to come from every direction, all due in the same week.

There were many ways to get thes-e projects done. One could of course use the much recommended method of planning ahead and doing a little bit each night. That way one could actually finish it without any sleepless nights. But that required organization and time, bot h of which were often in short supply. So most students used the last minute method, staying up until, well, until the project was finished. This method was never recommended but was definitely most popular.

Every student had a pet peeve concerning long term projects. Deepak Venkataramani, for example, stated that his least favorite task was, "Writing the report, because I can't write one."

Each student also had a least favorite type of project. When asked what the worst type of project was, Madhumita Mahalanabis said decisively, "Term papers." This was not an uncommon response, although some students did feel differently.

There were benefits to long term projects as well. They taught responsibility, organization, and often accomplished their goal of teaching us something worthwhile. So, despite all their little inconveniences, perhaps long term projects were really a blessing in disguise.

AGREEMENT Kevin Nadzam and Mike Werner organize their presentation.

Group meetings were very important to long 1erm projects.

Now?!

Throughout the year, most people developed some creative techniques for staying organized. Methods varied from relying on memory to more advanced time management plans. Quite a few re1i e d on assignment books to keep track of homework and social obligations. Some developed a "system" of planning ahead or simply leaving things to chance.

Certain types of assignments posed difficult problems. Many had trouble finding the t ime and motivation to

8'4路JUNIORS

begin and found themselves struggling as the deadline neared. Bing Lai Chen stated, "Book reports are hardest because you have to read a book on your own and before you know it, it's due."

More advanced systems consis.ted of schedules of one's weekly activities. Many people gained security in following an exact schedule, while others felt too restricted by such a system. Both ways worked since, despite the odds, people managed to find time for enjoyable activities.

Driving. For many, it was the embodiment of growing older. They gained freedom, independence, and responsibility. It was something many students longed for, counting the days until their sixteenth birthday, taking Driver's Education, and finally, being out on the road. For parents it was a time filled with anxieties and fears, but the draw of the road was stronger than any parent's worry.

By the end of their junior year, most stud en ts had obtained their driver's licenses and had begun to roam the roads freely. This was often greeted with enthusiasm by stu dents. When asked why she liked driving, Kristen Power answered, "Driving is your key to freedom."

Wienken agreed but added, "The chance to get away with your friend is what is really important."

While driving was often a pleasant experience, for some there were moments they wished they could forget. When asked about her most interesting driving experience, one junior, who wished to remain anonymous, replied, "I was on a winding road at night and I was going really slowly.

There was a car behind me, so I pulled into the parking lot of a church and accidentally settled into the church. So, really I hit a church."

Overall, driving helped students to do more of what they really wanted and most stud en ts enjoyed their driving experience.

When asked his goals for this season, he said that his aim was to place in the top twelve in the 100 yard breast stroke at States and to

lower his times in all his events. Todd practiced very hard in order to reach his goals. He swam 6500 to 7500 yards per day throughout the swimming season.

Friendship A friend was officially defined as "a person whom one knows well and is fond of." But this definition did not begin to cover adequately the ideas of most people concerning the nature of friendship.

Many said that summing up the qualities of an ideal friend was difficult. Kevin Nadzam mused, "That's dee p ...an ideal friend is to me someone who cares about you, worries and keeps you out of trouble." Juhaina Al-Tikrity felt that a true friend was, "Someone you could talk with and trust."

Many people felt that trustworthiness was an important attribute of a friend. Dave McClelland stated that an ideal friend was, "Someone who would not stab you iin the back." Eric Ferrin had

a more detailed opinion, saying, "Trust is essential in building a friendship. Without trust you tend to get nowhere, people tend to disagree and these disagreements can destroy a friendship."

The ability to understand others was also an important quality in a friend. Adam Cotner felt that, "Understanding is the most important part of a friendship in order to get through crises in the friendship, to maintain open lines of communication, and to understand other peoples' problems and what you can do to help them."

So, everyone had his/her own idea of what an ideal friend should be. Yet, regardless of one's definition of a perfect friendship, all agreed that friends were essential.

Although homework loads were heavy, many students still found time to enjoy shopping.

Most people decided that shopping was most fun when done with frien~s because they could get their friends' opinions on purchases.

Students had many choices as to the best place for shopping. A majority of students liked shopping at The Gap. Others preferred shopping at the mall because, as Bing-Lai Chen said, "There are so many stores to pick from." Kristen Kinney replied that she pre-

ferred to shop, "Out of town." When questioned on the subject, Laura Bartell jokingly replied, "I like to shop at K-Mart, especially the blue-light specials."

Students also gave a variety of answers when asked what they preferred to buy. Chritiana Bicudo, showing sophisticated taste, answered, "I like to shop for perfume." Many others preferred to buy clothes. However, no matter what they bought, people did not seem to have any trouble spending their money.

oosen Party: A social gathering, a type of entertainment; a group of people doing something together. Most students just said that a party was a time to let loose and break away from all the pressures of family and school.

When was a good time for parties? Lance Shuey confided that, "Evenings or weekends, vacations or inservice days: In fact, whenever people have lots of time off_" Many parties did not even have a purpose other than bringing a group of people together.

What made a good party? Jen Kipp said, "Just hanging out, having fun, and definitely loud music." Others had different requirements. Greg Preller replied, "A good choice of beverages and hanging out with friends are important." Most students agreed that an absolute necessity was the absence of parents.

Parties were for fun, relaxation and the expansion of one's social horizons. So, in the immortal words of Bill and Ted, "Party on, dudes!"

ALMOST PARENTS. With coo· cero, Mr. Pavlechko explains an assignment in class. lo school, 1eachers of1eo resembled par· eots.

PARENTS! "Parents,. PAR ENTS! Argh!"

During our hig_h school years, we could not live without them but living with them drove some of us crazy.

Some would say the worst part of living with parents were their rules, although most of the time these rules were not as bad as they seemed. Most students were content with their rules, as they should have been because their parent were giving them. For just obeying a few rules, most students gained a parent who provided food, clothes, and a roof over their heads.

Rules ranged from the common chores to the outrageous tasks.

Alex Hildebrand said, "Every weekend I have to vacuum the stairs and upstairs." Another commom regulation was curfew. Carrie Bas-

HEATHER MADDEN Heather Madden was one of the students in our school who excelled in out-of-school activites. Heather earned a first degree black belt in Korean Martial Arts at Pang Sol Bu, a school of martial arts. After studying karate for seven years, Heather felt that the experience had taught her self control, more patience, and more perserverance.

Heather was involved in many other extracurricular activities.

sett commented, "My curfew is 11:15 because I thought eleven was too early and they [my parents] thought 11:30 was too late and therefore we compromised."

Carrie was lucky, though, because many students were unhappy with their curfew.

Other rules were not as common. Deirdre Clemente said, "I was not allowed to drive with other sixteen yearolds until I was sixteen." Corey Balon revealed that his parents made him, "Let the dogs sleep in his room."

Luckily, most students did not have such strange rules.

All in all, the rules were not too bad no matter how unusual they were. In the end, however, everyone seemed to be able to survive their parents' rules quite well.

She was an Editor of the newspaper, Lion's Roar, president of Science Club, and a counselor at Krislund, a summer camp.

YES, DAD. Barren McMurtry shares a momen1 with his father.

Many siudeots looked to pareo1s for suppo.r1 during the school year.

STORY Teachers spend some time as real live humans who function in a state some might consider "normal." Many teachers do have families, go to ballgames, mow the lawn, watch an occasional T. V. show, and sometimes walk their dogs. Some spend free time exercis-

ing or driving children to a friend's house.

Teachers laugh and cry, just like the rest of us.

The hours of homework that high school students complained about was comparable to the hours of preparation that the teachers had to do, not to mention time spent grading.

It may be hard to believe but teachers are just as human as the rest of us. "After spending all day at school," ¡ Mr. Tim Glick said, "we sometimes go home and lay back on the couch and flip through the channels just like you."

METHOD Students noticed teachers that stood apart from the crowd.

Mr. Darryl M. Davies, a social studies teacher and an instructor at the Alternative Program, and Mr. Joseph Boris, a sociology and Vo-tech teacher, were mentioned by students as unprecedented favorites.

Mr. Darryl M. Davies provided what students called the most relaxing

atmosphere in the school. Most importantly, he allowed stressed students to practice their maturity by letting them spend their time as they wished in valued study halls. Using innovating teaching methods, he offered students a different technique for learning history.

Mr. Joseph Boris added an unusual twist to regular teaching

methods. His unique blend of live demonstrations, like the Ash experiment, and a plethora of movies, conveyed the true meaning of sociology. A horror film buff, Mr. Boris showed his favorite flicks for Halloween entertainment. He was always ready to lend selections from his large collection of compact discs to his favorite students.

This fall, the State College teachers produced the play, You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown. The production was done entirely by the staff. The principal characters in the play were Dr. Ron Wilkerson as Charlie Brown, Mr. David Eastman as

Snoopy, Mrs. Jessica Bowman as Lucy, and Mr. James Ritchey as Linus. It was obvious to everyone that the cast was enjoying themselves while performing. This was perhaps the only chance some students had to see their teachers under

the same pressure that they felt throughout oral presentations.

Since nervous and awkward teachers were captivating actors, the play was a huge success that proved to high school students and others that "old dogs can leam new tricks."

The Little Lions had tremendous wins against Altoona, Dubois and a powerful Punxsutawney team.

State High's 3-8 record was put into a better perspective when their opponents' strength was considered. Erie Prep, Cumberland Valley, and Salesianum, are teams that were in the top 5 in their respective states.

"We started out slow, but I believe that we were a respectable team by the time it was all over" said Chris Curran. Teamwork was

an optimum ingredient in the squad's relative success. The contributions of all 20 seniors, along with the supporting roles of numerous and very talanted underclassmen, helped State High to achieve marked improvement over last year's 1-10 record.

Sophomore Mike McQuery commented on the team's accomplishments, "As the season progressed, the team began to work together and it showed on the football field."

With many talented underclassmen rising through the ranks, the future looks bright.

The girls went as far as qualifying for the quarter final round of the State Tournament State High was able to play against two strong squads in the tournament, North Allegheny and Neshaminy. Entering the Regional Championship game, State College was victorious against the North Allegheny team by a margin of 1-0. Although

State High was defeated by Neshaminy in the quarter final round, the team was not disappointed with its effort.

The regular season record of 6-11-1, was not an indication of their talent and hard work.

Junior Kim Harvey commented, "We were a very strong offensive team and we worked very well together."

The team, comprised mostly of juniors, will be looking forward to having a strong season next year and will be working hard to bring back a State championship to State High.

The 1990 Little Lion boys' soccer team began the season with three tough games, losing to Pittsburgh powerhouse Mt. Lebanon, the Bobcats of Lock Haven, and Archbishop Wood. After their dramatic win over Coatsville with penalty kicks, the Little Lions exploded for a 16-1 streak with the only loss against Erie Prep. Senior forward Tim Mohr commented, "The dramatic win over Coatsville really turned this team around ."

"With consistent play from seniors Brian McWhirter, Brian Rayback, Andy Mitchell, Tim Mohr and Mark Brenneman, the Little Lions captured the TriValley championship , and again defeated

Somerset for the District 6 title. When asked about the dramatic turnaround, junior. goalkeeper Ron Kauffman said, "What helped a lot this year was that we we're all good friends and we were all very close."

The team then entered the State playoffs and defeated Benton in the first round. This was the first time in a number of years the Little Lions reached the second round of the playoffs. Although the season ended with a disappointing loss to North Allegheny, 12 players were given TriValley honors. Despite getting off to a rough start, the 1990 season overall was a great success.

n the ball The Little Lady Lions soccer team, in its third year of existence, posted another great season. The team lost some strong players due to graduation, but the young team, coached by Kevin and Jean Morooney, rose to the challenge and was a powerful force on the field.

The main challenge of the year was to come out on top against rivals Danville and Lock Haven. This challenge inspired the team through the long two-aday practices in the sweltering August heat.

In the end, State High beat Danville twice and Lock Haven once, mak-

ing the Little Lady Lions the top of the trio.

"Team unity was the key part to this year's success," said senior Christy Petersen.

Both on and off the field, the whole team worked and played together. Carina Santalucia stated, "The team had a lot of tough breaks, but in the end it was unity which helped us ge1 together and win our most important game." The next season will be in the spring, and there will be District playoffs for the first time. This year's team continued the tradition of quality soccer State High has developed.

eeping Pace The boys' crosscountry team, with one of the strongest programs year in and year out, had a rough season this year. The young team, which lost half of its varsity to graduation, had a slow start.

Led by senior co-captains, Leif Steiner and Charlie Morrow, the team still managed to place highly in its share of meets.

The Little Lions began the season placing fourth at the Big Valley Invitational and third at the Lebanon Valley Invitational. The team also placed first at a dual meet against Mount Union and Bellefonte. Their season

was highlighted by a second place finish at Districts. Altoona, one of the top teams in the state, edged by the harriers for first place at Districts. Junior Bennie Harader commented on the season by saying, "There were times in the season when I thought we ran very well as a team. But as a whole, I don't think we had the team unity that we had a year ago." The season was frustrating to those who were used to the Little Lions always winning, but with Bennie Harader, Tom Shea, and Tor Steiner returning next year, they should be back on top.

onquering the course After months of rigorous conditioning, the girls' cross-country season began. Each team member had her aspirations to improve times, techniques and to conquer the 5K/3.1 mile race course. An even greater challenge was to excel as a team, something that takes sacrifice, cooperation, focus , and strength, something easier said than done. Like any team, there were disappointments due to injuries and poor performances, but overall the season was one to remember.

The girls won six of seven invitationals, every dual meet, and placed third in the state. Big Valley was the first meet of the season where the girls team shocked itself with runners placing first,, second, third, sixth, and sixteenth. Especially sweet was the following

race at Lebanon Valley where six state girls were in the top ten. At the finish line, one was bound to hear an astonished spectator gasp-, "Another State runner!" Even more motivating were the wins at Conrad Weiser and at Steel City when State ran with top scorers.

The only invitational the team lost was its own State College Invitational. The consistency of the girls' team proved them to be veterans. Coaches Steve Gentry and Sue Brindle agree that, "If the state meet was run ten times, we would win three or four times."

eeing off The State High boys' and girls' golf teams were the teams to beat in 1990. Both teams had great success as they finished with winning records. The boys' team, led by seniors Darby Decker, Shawn Porta and Geoff Meyer and juniors Matt Musso and Hans Larson, finished with twenty-four wins and two losses.

The girls' team, led by junior Jami Papa and freshman Betzi Hanna, ended up with five wins and one loss.

The boys' outstanding season was highlighted by a first place finish at League Championships. Junior Matt Musso paced State College to this win with his first-place score of 74.

In capturing the title at

League Championships, State High defeated season-long rival, Hollidaysburg, who beat State High earlier in the season. As Coach John Mutzeck put it, "Our team performance in League Championships was our highlight as we played very well under different course conditions."

The girls' team also had an excellent season under the guidance of Coach Greg Gasperich.

Their season was highlighted by their capturing the District VI title and their second place finish at the Bolton Invitational. The talented young team should be strong once again next year as no players will graduate.

bove and beyond Although the 1990 Girls' Volleyball team was off to a slow start in the beginning because of the lack of cohesiveness, by mid-season the team had gained the neccessary experience and improved greatly.

With only two returning varsity players, the team had their work cut out for them. "It was definetly a rebuilding year, but despite this setback we did manage to win nearly half our games," stated senior Marcy Stevens. Coach Donna McPhear son turned to sophomores and juniors to carry on the tradition which

State High Girls' Volleyball has developed over the years. " Although we lacked experience in the beginning, we gelled together as a team," remarked returning senior Gwen Poole. This showed in the record as the losses changed to wins. Although the team was seated low in Districts and didn't made it to the final round, the future looks bright. Returning next year with a whole team of experienced juniors and sophomores Girls' Volleyball is definitely a team to watch for in the upcoming seasons of play.

The State High boys' volleyball team, in only its sixth year of existence, has established itself as a contender in District VI. The Little Lion spikers have been a surprising success in the last few seasons as they have adjusted well to the high level of competition in their district. Last year the team just missed winning the District title as they lost to Richland in the finals. This year the team hoped to avenge that loss and finally win Districts. After losing four of its starting five players due to graduation, State's new leaders were seniors Bob Kilareski, Craig Erickson, Frank Moret

and Matt Ponish. Senior Frank Moret forecasted the season by saying, "As we look forward to our season, we have hopes of great success. It's certainly going to be a challenge, but nothing that teamwork won't overcome."

Senior Matt Narber added, "I feel that we can win Districts if we play as a team and not as individuals." Winning Districts presented a difficult task as the team faced a challenging schedule which included two matches against defending District VI champion Richland, and the Cambridge Springs and Panther Classic Invitationals.

Team work was the key with Carolyn and Wendy leading the offense and Kim, Jodi, and Crista keeping the opponents from scoring on defense". "We had our work cut out for us this year, not that we lost a lot of players last year, but with our new coach we didn't know what to expect and we all had to adjust," stated Carolyn

Mangan. Having to come off last year's winning record, the team had their work cut out for them. Eventually they began to gel together as a team, and individual talents started working with one another to increase the pace from the slow start that they had in the beginning of the season turning the wins into losses. "Communication was the key in turning the season around. Although we had played together as a team before, we began to communicate more and it showed in the record," stated senior Jodi Hall. Although there were some minor difficulties to be worked out, the girls' team still managed to

do all right and increase the size of the crowd as they increased their wins.

After a difficult season, netting as many losses as victories, the State High Boy's Basketball team reached peak performance and captured the 1991 District 6 Championship.

After beginning with four strong wins, the team experienced a seesaw season. Major losses suffered at the hands of rivals Altoona and Johnstown were later avenged by the Little Lions. In a dramatic one-point victory over Altoona, and a sixpoint upset of Johns-

up town late in the regular season, the team prepared for Districts.

"The turning point in the season was the win over Altoona, especially since it was at their home court," said Kevin Ermol. It proved to be a turning point as State High went on to beat both Johnstown and Altoona for the District title. Although State was defeated in the first round of interdistrict play, the team should be ready for great success in the future.

Johnne Bryan commented on the season by saying, "We had a young team that improved during the year.

We wrestled much of the season without a full line-up which probably kept us from finishing with a winning record." Senior Mark Gibson was optimistic about the season as he said, "The high point of the season was our win against Jersey Shore in fron t of our home crowd."

State High's only blue and white team s lammed in another successful year. With a total of twenty wins against top-rated teams, it is easy to see why Chris Olmsted said, "The season was surprisingly successful considering t he challenging teams we faced." A few of these awesome wins were in the Baltimore Thanksgiving Tournament against teams from Long Island, Baltimore and Northern Virginia on November 23, 24 and 25. Another tournament State College won was their own State College Invitational on March 1, 2, and 3. They bested such respected teams as Pittsburgh's Canevin,

Franklin Regional, and Fox Chapel. The team also expected to do well in the State Playoffs and began with a shutout against Ringgold.

Many people were unable to witness this successful team because of the awkward icetime which was allotted to them. Saturday games were in the evenings at ten p.m. and just eleven hours later, at nine a.m., the Sunday games started. The time was unusual because State High had to schedule around the Penn State team. They had practice for one hour almost every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Practice and play paid off for this year's young team.

itting Home A The State College baseball team, under . first year coach Don Leitzell, was looking to get back on the winning track. After a disappoint ing season last year, the Little Lions felt that they could turn things around and win the CPL (Central Penn League title).

The team looked to returning seniors as t he foundation for their success. During the preseason, senior Martin Walsh said, "This year's team has a strong group of seniors coming back and winning the CPL seems like a realistic goal." Coach Leitzell 's emphasis this year was to put the responsibility of leadership on the shoulders of the seniors. Along with Walsh pitching, strong play came from Rob Yingling, Todd Kulka,

and Brad Strong. Chris Campbell and Donn Wagner also provided pitching for the team.

The team was confident about the season because of the number of returning seniors, many who planned to continue to play in college. Some juniors expected to fill out the roster included Tony Torsell,Ron Kauffman, Brian Hommel, and Duane Leitzell.

Coach Leitzell stated early in the season, "This team has a lot of potential and that's what it is, potential. In order for this team to do what it can, the kids have to make it work," he said. A winning season, the CPL title, and advancement thr ough the state tournament were all within the potential of this year's squad.

As another year rolled around, the goals for the softball team, under the guidance of head coach Barry Rossman, remained the same as in the past: to win the District VI title and to get into the State playoffs. This season brought back many starters. Seniors Tami Foster, Becky Kessinger, Missy Rickets, and Karen Shawver were just a few of the "'ll:perienced players returning to make up the core of the team, filling four out of the nine starting positons. Also playing again this year

were Tasha Kowalski, Lori Harvey , Amy Oakes, Jen Kipp, Megan Steinacker, Kimm Har vey, and Alison Friedman. "The team is going to have to rely more on the younger talent," said senior Karen Shawver during spring drills.

With such a large pool of equally talented individuals to choose from, the decisions made throughout the season were difficult, but succes~ was a certainty.

ack on track Coming off of last year's stupendous performances at Districts and States, the girls' track team was ready for another successful year. Returning this year for the Little Lady Lions were seniors Katy Farber, Meira Minard, Kristen Marciniak, Melissa Burroughs, Rachel Rose, Sonya Hall, Andrea Reede, Jodi Hall, Nicole Burton, Beth Donald, Michelle MacDonald, Deepika Reddy, and Carley LaMorte. "This year should be extremely promising with all the returning lettermen," stated an optimistic

Andrea Reede, who participated for her fourth year. Juniors Colleen Glyde, Laura Brewer, and Tina Gervinski were also great assets to the team.

After last year's claim of the District VI title and many accomplishments at the State meet, the participants in the 4xl00 meter relay, 4x800 meter relay, and individual events were ready for a repeat of last year with an added incentive of attaining a better ranking in the state. The talented combination of sprinters, long-dis tance runners, and

throwers made for a powerful team which was hard to beat.

The State High girls' tennis team, a str-0ng contender for the Central Counties League title, had a fine season.

They participated in the Downington and State College Invitationals, and finished with an excellent 10-4 record. State High had strong performances at the District VI Championships.

Sarah Wangsness commented on the season by saying, "This year proved to be very successful. Our team worked very hard to improve its skills and we showed it on the courts."

The boys' tennis team hoped to be a strong challenger for the Central Counties League title, a title in which they placed sec-

ond in 1990. The spaces left by graduating seniors were adequately filled by seniors Mike Bierly, Vidya Ramachaderon and Chad Kramer. This year's team had a tough act to follow as last year's team compiled a 12-2 record including a second place finish in the State College Invitational and a third place finish in the Plloenixville Invitational. Senior Dave Price said he looked forward to the season, "Because of the many challenges it presented."

Both teams had a lot of 路dedication and worked hard to maintain the quality of tennis traditional at State High.

THIS IS MATH?! With intense concentration, Michelle MacDonald attempts to turn her pants inside out without removing them which was not ao easy task. Math Club often found new ways to use old mathematical concepts.

SCIENCE, CHEMISTRY, MATH CLUBS cience Club, Chemistry Club, and Math Club had a very busy year as they prepared for competitions and filled their meetings with field trips and guest speakers, covering a full slate of interesting scientific and mathematical principles.

Science Club and Chem Club worked together on many of their activities this year. One of their most important joint efforts was preparing for the Science Olympiad competition. This competition gave students a chance to put their abstract knowledge of science to a practical use as well as to have a lot of fun. Rachel Nelson summed up the feelings of club members when she said, "Preparing for the Science Olympiad takes a lot of work and time, but it is also a very rewarding and enjoyable experience."

Math Club was also involved in many activities this year. They had a variety of speakers including several students who lectured on topics ranging from advanced graph theory to demonstrations of computer software. Cara Shapiro felt that Math Club was "a perfect opportunity to learn about aspects of math which are not covered in the regular school curriculum."

Thus, Science Club, Chem Club, and Math Club provided many opportunities for members to expand their knowledge and interest in the scientific fields.

STUDENT COUNCIL AND SENATES

Making Things Happen

This year, student government was very active in raising school spirit by sponsoring numerous activities.

Student Council members and officers Brian Rayback, president; Kevin Nadzam, vice-president; Heather Craig, secretary; and Jim Wyland, treasurer, organized many activities. The major event was Homecoming, with Spirit Week, the parade, the crowning of the King and Queen, and the dance. Other activities included the Americares project, which sent aid to U.S. troops, and an AIDS Benefit Concert.

Senior Senate, under the leadership of Nicole Thigpen, president; Chad Kramer, vice-president; Beth Donald, secretary; and Courtney Weiner, treasurer, was also very involved. The Senate constructed a float for the Homecoming parade, and organized the annual powderpuff game, the Dance Marathon, the senior prom and graduation.

The Junior Senate was under the direction of Carina Santalucia, president; Meg Dolan, vice-president; Amy Allara, secretary; and Allison Wienken, treasurer. The Junior Senate put together a float for Homecoming and aided in the preparations for both powderpuff and the Junior Prom.

Student government gave every student a chance to be involved in school activities.

WITH A STEADY CADENCE. Senior Sonya Hall and ju·

MARCHING BAND T ,he Marching Band's chair steps, floats, and step-twos, along with fiery tunes brought the crowd to their feet during half-time shows. They added pep to the rally, music to the dance, and thrills and chills to every State High football game.

In addition, the Marching Band provided entertainment and spirit for school and community functions including the Penn State Homecoming Parade, the Grange Fair Parade, the State College Halloween Parade, and the annual indoor concert.

Mr. Richard Victor, Mr. John Kovalchik, and Mr. Doran Dreibelbis, with the help of the band officers Drum Major Dawn Savage, president Nicole DeCrappeo, senior representative Reed Miller, and junior representative Lauren Kompanek, kept band rehearsals and performances running smoothly. This year the Marching Band performed six different shows and featured several soloists. The 160 member group energized the crowd with selections that included "Summertime," "Winds of Sonora," "Shinedown," and "Under the Sea." Continuing in its fine tradition, the Marching Band razzled and. dazzled its way the season both on and off the field.

W hen students thought about

Marching Band, ordered ranks of percussion, brass, and woodwinds automatically sprang to mind. However, three small but very important groups within the band were often overlooked: American line and banner, majorettes, and band managers.

A-line and banner led the Marching Band into every home performance. Senior Lelah Erb admitted that they didn't do much performance-wise, but the support that they gave their fellow Marching Band members was important.

Majorettes added sparkle and shine to every Marching Band performance. Under the direction of Mrs. Lois Rider, they worked hard in practice to achieve the level of excellence they displayed during each performance with their complicated but well-executed routines.

Although the fans saw very little of the band managers, they were still important.

They were responsible for making sure that every piece of equipment was where it needed to be when it needed to be there.

They rushed around on the sidelines and in the background to make sure that every performance went smoothly.

REACHING FOR THE STARS.Jamye Fasold and the other majorettes give an energizing performance during a halftime show. The majore11es were highligh1ed as a part of many different Marching Band roulines.

SILKS, LAVENDER, DRILL TEAM tudents at State High were exhilarated by the performances of three very energetic groups.

The Drill Team spent the year entertaining spectators with a combination of steps and dances. Under the leadership of advisor Maggie Glick, captain Terrance Bowman, and co-captains Camille Brown and lmanu Farrow, the members of the multi-cultured Drill Team accomplished everything from giving stellar performances to hosting this year's St. Valentine's Day Dance.

The Silks spent much of their summer and fall practicing with the Marching Band. They added color and flair to Marching Band performances. Instructor Lisa Nearhood and co-captains Diane Deno and Rochelle Starr wrote new routines every week for the squad to learn and perform.

Lavender consisted of thirteen flag and rifle marching members and two runners, who helped lay out and collect equipment during each show. This year they performed to music ranging from Billy Joel's "The Stranger" to "Vogue" by Madonna and the theme song from the movie "Rain Man."

In another noteworthy season under the direction of Mr. Richard Victor, these two organizations provided a creative outlet for those interested in providing joy to others through music.

Membership in concert band was open to any student who wished to participate.

In junior Cara Shapiro's words, "The only prerequisite is that you be willing to try."

Concert band spent the year preparing for their two concerts, during which they displayed their musical talents for an attentive audience.

The more exclusive symphonic band membership was given by audition only.

Although this band also performed in two concerts, the symphonic band also spent part of the year preparing for their annual competition. This competition allowed students the opportunity to spend three days showcasing their various musical pieces for an appreciative audience.

No matter what their musical direction, State High had a band to suit the needs of any student.

TOTAL CONCENTRATION Lost in their music, senior clarine1 players Nicole DeCrappio and Melissa Wallne r do nor even notice the approach of the photographer.

Conceniration was a necessary skill for band members.

The Stage Band, directed by Mr. Richard Victor, was organized like the traditional big bands with saxophones, trombones, trumpets, and rhythm. The band played music from classic Fourties jazz to Maynard Ferguson charts. The Stage Band coordinated a festival in March, participated in competitions in Williamsburg and at the Apple Blossom festival to defend their first place title.

The forty plus member Orchestra grew under the direction of Mrs. Dianne Howard. The group competed at Williamsburg along with other musical groups. They played a variety of pieces, from Beethoven's Ninth Symphony to Symphonic Reflections: A Medley by Andrew Lloyd Webber. The Orchestra is comprised of strings from grades nine through twelve, and winds selected from the best musicians.

The Choraliers choir was open to grades ten, eleven, and twelve and was combined with the sophomore choir. The group performed a variety of choral selections and added choreography to make the performances more entertaining. They performed songs from the musicals Gypsy, Annie, and Show Boat such as If Mamma was Married, It's a Hard Knock Life, and Little Girls.

CONCERT CHOIR, MEN'S AND WOMEN'S ENSEMBLE

Carry a

Happy Tune

T

hroughout the year, Concert Choir, Men's Ensemble, and Women's Ensemble provided enjoyable and varied musical experiences to choir members. The music ranged from Beethoven to Stephen Sondheim, and students sang in a variety of vocal styles. Many students this year enjoyed choir because it was a relaxing break in their busy schedules. Peter Kasmala stated, "I really enjoy choir because singing always makes me happy and able to deal with other things." Choir was not all fun and games, however. Members worked hard to perfect their songs for .concerts and competitions. Special sectional rehearsals and independent work on tricky notes, rhythms, and dynamics were extremely important to the success of the choir.

For students with the time and desire to participate more fully in the music program, Men's and Women's Ensembles provided an excellent opportunity to do so. Laura Bartell joined Women's Ensemble because, "I like to be with other people who enjoy music and take it seriously." So, whatever one's musical preference, the choirs and ensembles provided an wonderful musical experience.

SING IT LOUD. With a cheery smile, Linda Fink sings along with A.my Hed.riclc during a choir rehearsal. De· spice the many hours of rehearsal, srudencs always found their choir rehearsals enjoyable.

WHAT DO WE SING NEXT? Flipping through her music, Emily Lloyd looks for her place while Deidre Clemente leao.s forward to catch Mrs. Bowman's every word. Choir often required srudencs' complete concentrarioo.

The hard work and technical skills of the Jack Gooch and the Stage Crew members allowed band concerts, plays, and assemblies to run smoothly. With the help of these individuals, the students enjoyed a variety of performances.

The Thespians expanded in many directions. The group joined the International Thespian Society and created a newsletter sparking student interest. Directed by Megan Birch, the fall show The Mousetrap was the acting debut for Eric Knowlton and Nicole DeCrappeo. In the spring, the classic Rogers and Hammerstein musical Oklahoma! was performed, featuring students Veronique Fenlon, Bob Kilareski, and Emily Lloyd.

The Coffeehouse committee, advised by Mr. Eastman and led by Robin Lonstein, president, and Shauna Fetters, vice president, worked to present a show once a month after school. The shows featured singers, bands, poetry, and other performances. The last Coffeehouse was a two day outdoor event.

Taking a ~tand

S ocial

and environmental issues were among the top concerns as we entered into the 1990's. Many students found that working toward specific goals in these areas helped bring about at least a few small but important changes in our community and our world.

ECO is a group whose student members are concerned about the environment.

This year they participated in a Mount Nittany hike to help raise money for the Mount Nittany Conservancy. The members of ECO hoped that the fundraiser would help to stop development on Mount Nittany.

The Amnesty International student group is part of a worldwide organization dedicated to the protection of human rights. They sponsored a letter write-athon to help free prisoners of conscience in countries like the People's Republic of China.

ASTRA is a service club which participates in school and community activities.

The group's activities this year included the Special Education Holiday Carnival, the Valentine's Day Carnation Sale to benefit the American Heart Association, Special Olympics, and guest speakers.

THE SWEET SMELL OF SUCCESS. Members of ASTRA son lhrough the different Valentine messages which will be delivered with a carnation. This was just one of the many services ASTRA performed this year.

... BUT I REALLY THINK THAT... Brad Jones struggles to make his stand on the hostage situation very clear. Stu¡ denlS could show their support of international events by attending Amnesty meetings.

PEER LIST., SADD, UND. OTHERS C

oncerned with sharing information and promoting a positive emotional atmosphere at State High, several groups worked to spread important messages.

Understanding Others was a committee with the goal of keeping students' minds open concerning the different cultures and backgrounds that made the State High community. They wanted to battle ignorance and eliminate discrimination. They achieved this by participating in the Mar.tin Luther King, Jr. Day assembly, held in the North Building Auditorium.

Students Against Driving Drunk spent the year warning students against the dangers of drinking and driving. Directed by Mrs. Maggie Glick, they had a car, wrecked in a drunk driving accident, displayed on a flatbed truck for Homecoming. They worked in conjunction with the other high schools, to prevent tragedy at the prom and graduation.

If a student had a problem, concern or question, Peer Listeners were available to help. The program was designed to develop positive attitudes in students. The Peer Listeners, students themselves, were trained in communication, decision-making, and problem-solving skills. They promoted their sevices in many ways through out the school year. Peer listeners were available to any student who wanted the support that a peer could offer.

LANGUAGE CLUBS AND AASA

Getting Cultured

F ield trips, guest speakers, and films may sound like typical classroom activities, but for members of the various foreign language clubs, these were· ways to explore and gain appreciation of differing cultures.

The German Club, advised by Mr. John Mutzeck, took field trips to New York City and Washington, D.C. to visit examples of the German-American heritage. "Los Viajeros," the Spanish Club, celebrated Mexican holidays with traditional Mexican food and customs. Among their celebrations were Day of the Dead, Mexican Christmas, and Cinco de Mayo. Latin, German, and French clubs went to New York in February to visit the United Nations. Russian Club members studied the changing Soviet culture. Highlighting t he club's activities were advisor Mrs. Charlotte deLissovoy's slides of her 1990 trip to the Volga River, speaker Lena Moratcheva, an interpreter at the Sports Institute in Moscow, and a Soviet film.

Also concerned with the knowledge and education of cultural differences, the African-American Student Association enjoyed a large and enthusiastic membership. AASA was affiliated with a larger group on the Penn State campus. They met on campus to discuss issues relevant to African-Americans. As their membership had consistently grown, AASA remained a strong organization.

BIG BORIS IS WATCHING. From the sidelines of I~ Basketball games, advisor Mr. Joe Boris records th• scores and statistics. Record keeping was important fo figuring the league's stand·out performances.

INTRAMURAL SPORTS AND STUDENT TRAINERS

O nee again, students at State High en-

joyed the opportunity of participating in sports without the stress of interscholastic competition. There was a wide variety of IM sports offered, allowing students to pick activities they enjoyed. One of the most popular of the IM Sports was basketball which was run this year by Mr. John Hopkins and Mr. Joe Boris. It met four times a week with three games a night from 6:30-8:30. Another sport was IM Lacrosse. It was run by Mr. Tim Glick, and had difficulty finding a field on which to play during the busy varsity seasons.

IM Skiing was another popular sport which met Wednesday nights at Tussey Mountain. Other IM sports that experienced successful seasons were IM Tennis, IM Soccer, and IM Bowling.

Student Trainers were an important part of the Athletic Programs. Their hours of dedication helped to keep the training room running smoothly. Instructed by Mrs. Marsha Smith, the school trainer, these student trainers looked forward to careers in athletic training and hoped to use their valuable experience to move forward in the profession.

Artistic Expression

S tate

College High School Fine Art Club allowed students interested in art to meet and volunteer for fundraisers and to organize events. On-going activities included silkscreening gift bags for the Junior Women's Club breakfast with Santa, bake sales and organizing a concert event.

Opportunities such as organizing and publicizing the Big Band Thing, an almost completely student-created event, required hard work and discipline. The culmination of Art Club's work was an annual 3-day trip to New York City.

Acclivity was t he school-sponsored literary magazine and the Altered State was an independent magazine published by State High students. Creativity was the rule, not the exception, for the two magazines. Through these two magazines the students were given the opportunity to have their works published in a literary magazine format. Submissions for Acclivity were accepted in a variety of creative areas such as poetry, prose, art, and music.

The editorial staff then read and analyzed the submissions and chose which ones would be printed in the magazine. Anything and everything "in good taste" was accepted and published in the Altered State.

HERE'S AN IDEA ... Assistant editor Sylvia Weedma n of· fers several possible topics for a Paging Youth deadline The artkles written by the staff focused on a variety 0 1 issues facing students and adults in the community.

STUDENT VOICE AND PAGING YOUTH

F or journalistically

inclined students, there were a variety of options available in The Student Voice and Paging Youth.

Students had the opportunity to experience journalism through the newspaper The Student Voice. Members wrote on topics concerning school events. Under the supervision of senior editor Reed Miller and junior editor Kristen Power, along with the help of "Clubs" editor Rick Brooks and "Senior Spotlight" editor Heather Madden, this was a productive year for the Student Voice. The newly combined paper operated under advisors Mrs. Janet Kretchmar and Mrs. Elaine Weirich.

Paging Youth was a section in the Centre Daily Times devoted to student-written articles. Paging Youth offered students an opportunity to be paid for their published work. The club met to discuss new article topics and edit previous articles. The editor was Eric Knowlton, assistant editor was Sylvia Weedman, and advisors were Mrs. Judy Lysaker and Mrs. Polly McWilliams. Topics ranged from plays to sports and clubs. Many editorials were also written on both school and non~chool related issues.

On Top of the

News

HARD AT WORK. Senior editor Reed Miller and junior editor Kirste.n Power enter articles into the computer for the next deadline. The Scudenc Voice was produced using various word processing and publishing sofcware pack路 ages.

OFFERING INPUT. Kirsten Power offers Reed Miller some advice about an article. The editors and staff of The Student Voice worked very hard all year to provide the student body with inportant and up to date information.

ANY IDEAS? Senior editor Eric Knowlton prepares a list of possible topics for the next deadline. The Paging Youth staff gathered together regularly t0 plan the con路 tent and focus of their section in Centre Daily Times.

LITTLE LION

~landing

the

Test of Time

Q

uestion: Which organization put in more than three thousand hours to insure that the memories of the 1991 school 'y ear would last forever?

Answer: The Little Lion, of course!

The 1991 Little Lion staff was proud to follow in the footsteps of their predecessors. The time and effort it took to produce a yearbook of the quality and magnitude of the Little Lion caused these journalists to sacrifice afternoons, evenings, and even spring break to insure that memories of State High lasted a lifetime.

The Little Lion also participated in competitions. The Little Lion has received a Keystone ranking from the Pennsylvania School Press Association for every yearbook produced since 1972. The Little Lion has also placed or received a medalist award from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association for more than twenty consecutive years. Hopefully, the 1991 Little Lion was no exception.

The Little Lion staff worked hard to produce a quality yearbook for the entire student body to enjoy. Although at times the task seemed endless, the finished product made all the hard work worth it.

JUST ONE LAST CAPTION. Oblivious to the presence of the camera, Student Life co;·editor Andrea Reede works on the finishing touches for her pages. Yearbook editors often worked long hours in the CRC to finish their pages.

LETS SEE... Faculty co-editor Allie Wienken calculates how many yearbooks she has sold during her lunch peri· od. Liccle Lion staffers often gave up their lunches for such thankl.ess tasks as yearbook sales.

UH.OH. Student Life co-editor Chrissy Ferretti attempts to exit the upstairs yearbook office, forgetting that even Little Lioo editors were fair prey for the ruthless journal· istic instincts of the photographers.

)MPARISON SHOPPING. Mr. Thompson and co-editor chief Sabrina Boyer take some time at a Columbia ress workshop to scope out the competition. Work· .o ps allowed Liccle Lion staffers the chance 10 see other 1blications.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The 1991 Litde Lion reflects many hours of effort on the part of the yearbook staff. However, the yearbook was not just the product of a small group of students: it was made p<>ssible by many people who contributed their time and efforts to insure that the yearbook was the best it could be, whose efforts we would gratefully like to acknowledge.

First and foremost, we would like to thank Mr. Thompson, who stepped in to fill the advisor's p<>sition after Mrs. York's unfortunate accident.

We would never have made it without you.

We would like to thank those at Jostens who made this book possible, especially Beverly Harader, Renee Biggins, Rick Brooks, and Jeannie Brown. To Chuck Fong and Studio 2- we will never forget your help.

From State High, we would like to thank all the custodians, especially Tammie and Wayne, for putting up with us; the administration for understanding us; Mrs. Elaine Weirich for working around us; and all those who gave us extra help when the need arose, contributing their talents and their spring break to the yearbook, particularly Mrs.Joyce Harvey, Mrs. Gail Robinson, Mrs. Gloria Sampsel, Mrs. Cheryl Speakman, Mrs. Peggy Zentner, and Mr. Thompson's seventh period class.

Last but not least, we would like to thank all our parents. Without your supp<>rt, through all the late nights and frustration, this book would never have occurred. We love you.

Sabrina and Penny

ALL OF US . . . The people of the Lierle Lion who made it all happen.

YOUR GUIDE TO LIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF IT ALL

THE COST OF VICTORY IN THE MlDDLE EAST. The wife of Marine Captain Jonathan Edwards ware bes as her husband is put to rest at Ar路 lington National Cemerary in Washington, D. C.

A New Germany After 45 years of Communist oppression, East Germany was finally reunited with West Germany on October 3. Sections of the Wall, torn down last year, still awaited disposal north of Berlin. Some slabs were sold as souvenirs, others were pulverized and used as aggregate in concrete for new construction. Thirty years ago, the wall was constructed to keep East Berliners from escaping to West Berlin; now the remains symbolized the new hope and desire for democracy that is sweeping across Europe.

Russia's Dark Days Despite the promising outlook for Ger- . many and other European countries, the Soviet empire had begun to collapse around Mikhail Gorbachev. In October, everything seemed under control as Gorbachev won the Nobel Peace Prize even after his controversial handling of the republic of Lithuania. However, the bliss did not last long as Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze, a major ally of Gorbachev's in the Kremlin, resigned. It seemed that reactionaries were gaining power. It was obvious to the Soviet leader that he would have to stop trying to please everyone. During his six years in power, Gorbachev has gone from left to right trying to compromise with everyone in order to move toward a greater democracy.

However, with the declaration of sovereignty in all 15 Soviet republics and some regions and cities within those republics, the state reached near anarchy. Combined with the continuing dissatisfaction of the Soviet people with the long food and clothing lines, Gorbachev became increasingly worried by the possibility of another Russian revolution.

Ecology vs Economy Environmentalists answered the cry for help as everything from owls to the rain forests beckoned once again. One of the major environmental victories occurred last spring when they succeeded in getting northern spotted owls placed on the threatened species list. This required cutbacks in logging of the birds' nesting places in the Pacific Northwest, threatening the jobs of many timbermen. The symbols of the owl and the logger came to represent the debate between those trying to save their jobs and those trying to save the environment. Other environmentalists continued to fight for the rain forests

of the world, which are shrinking at alarming rates. Meanwhile people everywhere began recycling newspapers, soda cans, and glass bottles on a regular basis.

WAR! On August 2, 1990, Iraq invaded t~e small oil producing country of Kuwait, triggering an oil shock and a worldw~de panic. The United States, together with the United Nation, immediately took a strong stand against Saddam Hussein.

President Bush tried to stress to the American people that it was not the United States against the country of Iraq, but the whole world against the dictator. The United Nations first placed economic sanctions on Iraq and later passed a resolution that gave Saddam Hussein until January 15, 1991 to get his troops out of Kuwait. If they did not adhere to the ultimatum, there was a great possibility of war. During the next few months, attempts at diplomatic solutions failed, as did the economic sanctions. By November Bush had already ordered about 430,000 troops to Saudi Arabia for "Operation Desert Shield." The world watched intently as the last meetings between the U.S. and Iraq failed and the deadline approached.

Congress passed a resolution giving President Bush the support he had hoped for as January 15 came and went. On January 16, the war against Iraq, or "Desert Storm," officially began. U.S. troops bombed strategic military points around Iraq, encountering little resistance. The primary weapon the lraquis used in the war was the Soviet-made SCUD missile, which at first was feared to be carrying chemical warheads. However, U.S. Patriot missiles were able to shoot down the SCUDs with remarkable accuracy. Hussein tried desperatly to gain the support of the Arab community by getting Israel involved in the battles, but the Israelis, under t he advice of U.S. military officials, resisted counterattacking when Iraq fired upon them. A ground offensive, launched in February, secured an Allied victory, as Iraqi troops surrended by the thousands.

After a record 41 days of fighting, President Bush ordered a cease fire, marking the liberation of Kuwait.

Censorship at Home

The land of the free was crying for libe ati on from the censors this year, as crackdown began on everything from m sic to clothing. Perhaps the most contr versial case came from the rap group Live Crew and the lyrics from their albu As Nasty As They Wanna Be. 2 Li· Crew's album became the first ever to I declared legally obscene in a ruli1 against the band by U.S. district cou Judge Jose Gonzalez. He said that "tl evident goal of this particular recording to reproduce the sexual act through mu: cal lyrics." Another major censorship st ry occurred in October over a Cincinm art director's exhibit of the work of ti late Robert Mapplethorpe, an artist wl died of AIDS last year. The director, De nis Barrie, was acquitted of misdemean obscenity charges, becoming the first U. museum director ever charged with o scenity because of the pictures the mu:: um displayed. Clothing, such as Ba Simpson t-shirts, was also banned many schools, as teachers claimed th bad role models produced bad studenThe censorship issue has left to bitter fet ing with many people who believe t hat tl land of freedom and democracy shou not suddenly turn into thP. land of t: banned.

That's Entertainment

This was the year .of entertainme world suprises. From the Grammy Awa winning duo Milli Vanilli came the shoe ing revelation that theY. had not sun~ at on their platinum debut album Girl Y Know It's True. In addition, we discover that white rap star Vanilla Ice had li extensively about his background to ma it "interesting." The movie business, t• was full of surprises, with the most POI lar movies of the year sentimental fli< like Ghost, Pretty Woman, and Ho Alone. On television, Bart Simpson h the nation's attention, at least when weren't trying to figure out who kili Laura Palmer. In sports, Penn State U versity joined the Big Ten, which now l eleven member colleges, and the S Francisco earthquake wrecked havoc w the so-called "Bay Bridge Series."

Fashion The nineties fashions were departing from the anorexic super-model look of the eighties and heading for more feminine, alluring clothing. Sixties styles were seen everywhere, with seventies bell-bottoms sneaking in every so often. Most of all, the trends favored fashioned that were appealing to everyone, not just the very young or rich.

Oil-A Bad Name A little more than a year after the tragic Exxon Valdez spill, big oil companies were once again setting a bad rap for raising gas and fuel prices. The companies' justification was, of course, the Persian Gulf Crisis.

Many considered it strange, however, that several firms posted huge increases in earnings.

Laughs Galore The Comedy Channel and HA! executives haven't exactly been laughing about the success of their new channels. In fact, both were losing money after their first nine months on the air. Therefore, the Comedy Channel, which is run by HBO, and HA!, run by the people who operate MTV, have decided to merge together into Comedy TV, to appear later this year.
