Columnists
Columnists reminisce about the "most After spending four years at Maine South, this year's senior columnists have had a variety of experiences with staff, students, and various activities. Through their columns, they have tried to reveal the character of Maine South and their own personalities as well. Chris Riedel's never-ending quest for school spirit quickly changed as she managed to antagonize many a sophomore female with her memorable description of their make-up application techniques. Ashley Runnels made the
Maine South cafeteria a little more like a Christian Science Reading room with her profound studies of the American teenager, while Kate Ranft brought to her columns perceptions of Maine South from the unique eyes of a monk on Halloween. Rod Berthold gave his advice to the sick, while Kim Grichnik gave us her version of the theory of evolution. This year's columnists also gave the Maine South administration more than a headache with Lynne Neubert's playful attacks on the
faculty's treatment of "us pesky kids (those darn kids!)." If Lynne's treatment of the administration's policies was playful, George Brant's was downright cynical. From his revelations that Maine South had "one big bladder" to his helpful hints for practical uses of the new Discipline Procedure Books induding lining for a gerbil cage, to his anguished outcry against the return of the Brady Bunch, the "Family from Hell," to his protest against pools of spit in the guys' locker room,

Good Mourning Mixed Reviews The scene is a rouna table over which Chrissy Coscioni and Kim Grichnik discuss the most amazing thing about Maine South while eating milk and cookies. Chrissy: Maybe it's...(longpause) Kim: No. (long pause) Chrissy: One most memorable experience that sticks out in my mind was on the tennis team sophomore year. Kris Gill and I were playing a heated match against New Trier, and the girl hammered the ball into our court. Maybe it was an imperfection in the court or the spin on the ball, but no sooner did I know it but that ball bounced right up the back of my skirt. What else could I say but "Your point." Kim: Well, that is truly memorable, but is it amazing? Now, what's amazing is when I went into the bathroom between 2a and 2b and who should be standing in my presence but a man, stark naked. Chrissy: Really? Kim: No, but that would be amazing. Chrissy: It certainly would. But, back to the CTux of the matter. What is the most amazing thing about M.S.? Kim: I don't know, but you want some more milk? (Chrissy nods. Kim heads for the fridge. Chrissy whistles Bad News Bears song. Long period of silence.) Chrissy: Is that from Carmen! Kim: No, I gotta go with the Bad News Bears! Chrissy: I think it's from Carmen. Kim: You know, Chris, I've been thinking, and it's the People. Chrissy: No. It's from Carmen. Kim: No, really, it's the people I've met along the way, and the teachers. They are the amazing thing about Maine South. Chrissy: Yeah, you're right. All the interesting friends we've made (including us, no doubt)
In an attempt to further remove himself from the generalities here at Maine South, the Anonymous Columnist has asked to t>e placed as far away from the norm as possible. His column can be found on page 24. and those teachers that have made a very special impression on you, Uke Mr. Clark, Mr. Gasche, and Mr. Hunt. Kim: Oh, yeah, definitely, and I might add Miss Goll and especially Mr. Martello (Thanks, 'M'). Oh, and all the boys we've met. Chrissy: What boys? Kim: Well, I don't know Chris, but they were all nice. Chrissy: Don't forget the girls, Kim. but there are too many to name. Kim: Oh yeah, and way too many boys. Chrissy: What boys? Kim: Chrissy, sshh. (They finish the last two cookies in silence.) Chrissy: Is that it? Kim: No, Chris, we've got a whole 'nother box. Chrissy: I meant high school. Kim: Well, yeah, I guess. Chrissy: I can't believe it. Kim: Yeah, high school was pretty amazing, wasn't it? Chrissy: There you have it, just plain amazing.
As I walked around and pondered the most amazing thing I've learned at good ol' M.S., I came across the pond. I thought about it and went back to my freshman year, when, sitting around waiting for the bus, we "spit" into the pond. And one of the amazing things I've learned was that our fish eat our "spit"! Yikes! But it's true. I don't know, I think it's weird! That's the most amazing thing I've learned here, "fish eat spit." And the most amazing thing I've experienced here is friends. I could tell you my life story of friends, but that would take too long. I just want to let you know that friends are either with you or against you (an opinion, mind you!). Too many times "friends" get in Uttle fights and become enemies. And one problem there is communication. Why are some people afraid to speak their feelings? I guess it just happens. This column is my last, and I don't want to be dragging, so just have a great summer, underclass Southerners, and to the seniors—the last four years were great, good luck to you, and see you at Homecoming.

Looking Around My most amazing moment this year was when the curtain fell on my last performance here and I realized that that was my last show at Maine South—ever. My second most amazing moment was when I realized that, after my class leaves this school, everything will go on just as it did before we came, without any drop in quality or talent. My best to all and good \

amazing thing" here at IVIaine South George provided a smirk and a chuckle for all of his avid readers. Rather than commenting on simply the school, Chrissy Coscioni attempted to drastically change the ideals of society with her Grinch-like approach to the Christmas season and her disparagement of the HLMTMSIDLH syndrome. Mental stimulation if not words of enlighteiunent were provided by Maine South's own Anonymous Columnist, who has
yet to be revealed to the baffled student body. Throughout the year, his variations of the Sermon on the Mount provided his readers with the ever-elusive answers to questions such as "Why do Hawkettes walk with their feet at 90 degree angles...," "How did Brooke Shields get into Princeton...," and "Do you get drowsy during 6th period?" Southwards hopes that these words of wisdom, whether they be silly, serious or somewhere in between, have helped to
enlighten the students of Maine South, and we hope that you have enjoyed what this group of nine talented writers had to say. To somehow pull their diverse Maine South experiences together. Southwards asked each columnist to expand on what they have found to be the "most amazing thing about Maine South." Here's to our Columnists... Here's to Maine South... Here's to THE END

Time Out Maine South is probably not the most exciting place in Action Ridge, thrilling town that this is. In fact, in thinking over my past four years at this fine institution of learning, I was hard pressed to come up with anything even remotely amaziilg. But one thing I do find interesting is the flawed logic used by our fine administrative personnel. For instance, during a tornado drill everyone in the top of the A-wing moves into the chemistry rooms. Now this may sound slightiy obvious, but it seems hke it would be rather dangerous to be in a thirdfloor room filled with glassware and dangerous diemicals during a tornado. Another thing I find curious about Maine South is the librarians. Why do they kick people out when they talk, but make them suy when they try to leave early? These and many other problems plague Maine South, but that this is such a fine school despite it all is truly amazing.
Alostof us realize that although high school is somewhat trivial and annoying with all of its cliques and social stigmas, high school is an experience that is not easily forgotten. Memories of our times here with friends will stick with us k)ng after we tell exaggerated stories about the good old days of growing up and changing; of groups and cliques that eventually disappear; of laughing 'til your stomach aches and crying over things that mean nothing two weeks later; of dancing at sock hops and just having fun. And we will talk about what we learned here. During the four years that I've been at Maine South, I've learned something that perhaps can be labeled as not amazing, but essential. I've found out who I am and learned how to be myself. That is iniportant, because wiien we venture out into the world from this sheltered environment, that is what will truly count. Without knowing who you are and how to be yourself, you will always be susceptible to being molded into what someone else wants you to be. And that stinks. ^ aM^kiii'^ht~
In Case W0 Survive There is one last graduation requirement that you seniors have to fulfill (aside from all the other stuff you just found out about this week—has panic set in yet?). This is Ashley's Whiz-Bang Extra Special Maine south SAT fSilly Annoying Test). Go to it. 1. If you lose your Maine South I.D., you iliould: A) report it to the Personnel Office B) create a new identity C) get a better one made downtown. ("Birthdate? Uh, '65 I think. How old would that make me?") 2. PDA stands for: A) Public Display of Affection B) Psychotic Drug Association C) Polka Dot Anteaters 3. This year's Homecoming Queen: A) was Lisa Hamel
View from the Stairs The most amazing thing I have experienced at Maine South is the spectacular extracurricular program and the teachers who make it possible. We have such a wide variety of activities available year-round that it is easy to take them for granted. Yet, none would be possible without the commitments made by the teachers who bring them to life. Yes, administratdrs, parents, etc., are also involved, but I want to stress the teachers in particular, because they are the people whom we see in class every day. They teach us science and history, English and math. We trust in them, yst we know so little about them as people. And when the bell rings, they can go home, but they stay to become the coaches, club sponsors, directors, and coordinators. They have given uj) their time to bring us opportunities which we might never have been able to experience otherwise. They have made my life at South most enjoyable, and I am greatful for their commitment because that, my friends, is an amazing thing.

Unsung Heroes
outhwords' editors recognize Brian Fortney
Jim Kallas Jim Kallas' performance on the basketball court, as well as the classroom, has made him an easy choice for distinction as a 1986-87 Unsung Hero. A four year member of the basketball team, Jim has dedicated much time to the sport to help make him a starter this year and was also named an All-Conference player. In addition to the game of basketball, Jim has contributed to the Track team for four years, the Physical Education Leader program for two years, and to the Cross Country team during his freshman year.

Presidents
June 4,1987
Council worked for a great year Without everyone's dedication, we would not have had the teamwork needed for our activities to run weU. To let all you know just how hard we have been working, I'll tell you some activities and events that we have had a part in over this past year. In August, Council worked at booksales selling sweatshirts and Busy Signals, and on the first day of school we had our freshman orientation program. To keep the year moving, along came Homecoming, which was quite early this year. Everything, including queen elections, carnival, assembly, and the parade ran smoothly. A
By Chris Riedel, Student Council President As my presidency for Student Council this year comes to a close, I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to all members.
special thanks to the Homecoming committee, who helped out in many ways. In October we had our annual Leadership Conference and were able to invite other schools to it as well as dubs from our school. In November, with the help of everyone in school, we had our most successful food drive ever, bringing in over 4,000 cans. Marillac
House, where the food was donated, greatly appreciated our contribution. As December came, council continued to work on the Winter Sports Assembly, V-Show, the Christmas Card Exchange, and Faculty Appreciation Day. And as the new year came in, council worked on and was involved in AFS pizza sales, AFS/Brotherhood assembly, Spring Sports Assembly, Ice Cream Social, and the basketball game between the Bears and the Maine South faculty. It seems Council does not do that much here at school, but in reality we do more than people think. A lot of thanks needs to be given to Mr. Feichter and Miss Finneran for the time and effort which they put in. Also, a special thanks to Mr. Adamo, Dr. Rei.zi'ewicz, and Dr. Cachur, who supported Cour. and listened to us whenever we wanted to talk. I wish next year's Council the best of luck and hope Council continues to work for the students. Good luck to all and thanks again to everyone here at Maine South for a great year.
'The Class' made '87 a success We had our annual booth at the carnival, and the Senior Telegrams were, as usual, a great success. Next came the parade in which we entered a float, at least we considered it a float. To keep the tradition going, we used the McGarry's truck and carefully put our float together piece by piece(we threw excess streamers and balloons from the dance decorations all over the truck). That Saturday was beautiful and the event of the evening was the dance, the most highly attended ever. Our next event was the 5th annual Beach Party, which also had good attendance. Why you ask? It must have been our 'unique' Beach Party video to promote the singles dance. Just when we thought we had time to rest, we had to start making more decisions. Senior By Susie Kashul, President of the Class of '87 Superlatives sheets were made up and handed School is almost over and I would like to tell (xit. When this happened, we knew that the you about some events which, we, the Class of end of the year was just around the corner. '87, have greatly contributed to. No year Superlative results were anxiously awaited by would start off right with out Homecoming. everyone.
But before we found out the results, there was Senior Prom, "The Time To Remember." One week later we have the Senior Breakfast. On this day, we have a senior get-together in the cafeteria and find out Superlative results. Although this is a fun time for us, it also is sad
because we now know that there is only one more high school step to take...Graduation. With only a few days until we graduate, I want to wish everyone the best of luck. I know this year would not have been such a huge success without all of the help from our Class Sponsors, Mrs. Schreiber and Mr. Andersen, and my fellow officers—Kim Grichnik, Chrissy Coscioni, and Beth Maloney. Guys, we made it through the good times and the bad time3(how we did it, I do not know). Thanks for being such a special class. I do not consider us just another class. We are 'the class!' Good luck to everyone, I'm going to miss ya!

One dunge that affected him the most was the move of the publications office from V-106 and V-107 to V-130. This relocation provided many advantages, including larger work space for Southwards and (^fiti staff members and the added benefits of an adjoining darkroom. Recalling "some of the toughest and some of the most fun" years at Maine South, Mr. Beatty rcmembere "the TO's with all the nirmoil and all the legal hassles over First Amendment rights." During this period a few underground newspapers came into existence, but after one or two issues.
they usually "disappeared into the woodwork" because of libelous statements. "I always thought it would be good to have some of them going,'' commented Mr. Beatty. "It would have been good competition for us." After retiring, Mr. Beatty plans to do some reading and writing and also some traveling in the winter. He also intends to "mess with woodworking," play golf, do some gardening, and, as he stated, "Who knows?" He added, "I don't think I'll be bored." However, Mr. Beatty will miss "the daily association with people," including adults and students. But, he adds, he will be "glad to get away from the deadlines, pressures, and busywork" associated with his job. Mr. Beatty has achieved much in his years of teaching. As English Department Chairman Dr. FMip Loveall stated,"Mr. Beatty's relaxed, accepting manner enables him to work with students at all levels. He has been especially effective in working with young writers, encouraging them to experiment with and develop their talents both in his classes and through school publications such as Southwards and Grqffiti." Alisa Regas, Co-Editorin-Chief of Southwards, stated,' 'The thing that is so great about Mr. Beatty is his patience. Being the ^xjnsor of a newspaper is a rough job, one where there are constant pressures and constant crises. Mr. Beatty handles them all in stride, using his vast knowledge of journalism, his dry sense of humor, and, most of all, his uncaimy ability to work with unruly editors." Replacing Mr. Beatty next year will be Mr. Mike Deines as Graffiti sponsor and Mr. Tom Kerth as Southwards sponsor. Mr. Beatty is confident that this transition will be effected smoothly, as he commaited,"Those things have a way of going on and improving. " He added that the new ideas that will come from "new blood" will be an asset to both publications. Mr. Beatty has begun to work with and train Mr. Kerth and Mr. Deines this semester "so they don't come in ice cold" next year. Mr. Beatty's dedication, patience, and expertise will be missed at Maine South. Everyone who has ever worked with him thanks him for the assistance, support, and long afternoons spent with the pica which he has so willingly provided.

School nurse, Ingrish, will be missed Mrs. Ingrish, school nurse at Maine South for twenty years, is planning to retire at the end of this year. A very graceful woman, she truly enjoys her work and treats each student with thoughtfulness and caring. She had wanted to become a nurse since her junior high days in a small Northern Michigan town. She came to Chicago and received her nursing degree from Augustana Hospital. When a vacancy for school nurse opened up at Maine South twenty years ago, she had an interview and received the position. "I am not leaving Maine South to leave Maine South, but for more time for the things I want to do. It was hard to decide to do this," she said. What do you eqjoy most about nursing? "The variety. It's really a people contact profession. I'm a people j>erson. Every day is different because you are dealing with people. It's not boring. I've never been bored a day in my Hfe. The thing that bothers me most about teenagers is that they're so bored all the time. That's the only thing that really bothers me. Life is too short to be boring."
What will you miss the most? "The students and the friends. I'll miss the teenage scene because I honestly believe they keep me young. I'll have to come back and visit sometime." How do you plan to spend your retirement? "I'm going to have fun. I have always thought of my life in stages. First, I was Margaret Ingrish, the nurse, then I was Jim's wife, then I was the mother of my children, then I was Margaret Ingrish, the nurse for twenty years, and now I want to go back to being Jim's wife again. I think, I'm one of the few people in the world who really enjoys being a housewife and a mother. I think that's really neat, and I love it. I'm going to take piano lessons again, I'm going to take some college courses I've always wanted to take, and I'm going to finish a quilt I started two years ago." How do you say goodby after twenty years? This has been a big part of my life and now my Ufe will change again. My last will and testament to all students: May you have a job to enjoy as much as I have mine, a family and friends to love who support you, and may your Hfe never be BORING! Thank you to everybody. It's been fun."

Mrs. Ingrisn is a woman with a wonderful zest for life. She has gone above and beyond the call of duty to help the students here at school. We are losing a valuable asset. Shr shall be greatly missed.

9 Davis retires after 29 years of service by Kavita Sabnani It is sad to say that this will be Mr. Davis's last year to teach history to the Maine South students. This year, he is teaching American History and World Cultures. Mr. Davis has beai teaching for 29 years; 17 of these years, he has taught at Maine South. Mr. Davis has also had teaching experience fixjm Itasca Junior Hi^ Sdwol and Lake Park High School. He graduated from Northon Missouri State University and obtained a M.S. degree from Northern Illinois University. In addition, Mr. Davis has had 23 years of coaching in basebal, basketball, and football. For 13 years, he was a varsity coach for the baseball team. Recently, he is a sophomore coach for the
Maine South baseball team, and will continue to coach after he has retired. With many years of teaching, Mr. Davis can now conclude that the "kids today arereallyno different than when I started here." He remarks that the only difference between the students today and the students in 1970 is that "youth today aare somewhat less motivated and may need a little more prodding." Mr. Davis's future plans are to enjoy his many hobbies including gardening, fishing, reading, traveling, and, most importantly, forgetting the clock! We are sorry to see Mr. Davis's teaching career end, but we are certainly grateful for the wonderful memories he has left behind.
IVIS loses Groves' matliematical mind Retiring at the end of this year will be math teacher Mr. Robert Groves. Mr. Groves, a former Southern Illinois graduate, has received master degrees in Education Administration, Guidance, and Math. Mr. Groves began his teaching career in 1957, working at various high schools in Southern Illinois. In 1960 he was brought up to the Maine Township district and worked at Maine East for 15 years until he was transferred here in 1983. Since coming to Maine South, Mr. Groves has taken an active role in the basketball program, where not only has he
served as sophomore head coach, but also he has helped with the summer basketball camp. The district's retiree plan was Mr. Groves' main reason for retiring; as he stated,"It would have been foolish for me to pass it up." Along with playing golf and fishing, Mr. Groves will also spend his time by staying on as sophomore coach. "I'm really going to miss associating with the kids; it's always envigorating and refreshing to share their youth," he commented. Said Math Department Chairman Mrs. Przybylski,"He's one of the truly dedicated and experienced teachers in the district."
Hommerding retires after 21 years as Distributive Ed. teaclier Maine South business education teacher, Wallace J.

Mr. Hommerding stated, "Maine South is an excellent institution! THe young people are very enthusiastic. The community is very helpful especially the local businesses. These things all contribute to a fine school." The Maine South administration gives him
freedom in the classroom. He feels that the classroom is his business and the product he is manufacturing is well-educated students. After retirement, Mr. Hommerding plans to go more heavily into real estate. He would especially like to develop real estate in Naples, Florida. "I will miss the people and the interaction with students at Maine South. But, hopefully, new opportunities will open the other side of the door." Mr. Hommerding will leave Maine South with a good reputation and a feeling that he has helped many young students get on the right track towards the road to success.

Varsity teams name 1986-1987 MVP's Todd aark Todd CJark, the Maine South gdf team's MVP for the second year in a row, has been an outstanding member of the Hawk Force for the past four years. A consistently low scorer, Todd has earned himself a dependable reputation for low scores in tough meets. Many times, Todd's performance has led the Hawks to victory on the golf course. This year, Todd qualified for the sectional meet as he concluded his strong career at Maine South. Gary Francis Not only was Gary Francis the Most Valuable Player for the boys' basketball team, he was also named the Player of the Year by the Pioneer Press. Gary led the Hawks in scoring with 17.6 points per same and had the best free throw percentage at 79 percent. As a three year varsity member, he disciplined and dedicated himself to the spot of basketball and had the confidence to want to take the winning shot against New Trier to give Maine South its first basketball conference championship since 1979. Jim Hasten Senior Jim Huston was recently named the ^P of the Hawk gymnastics team. Jim's rigorous practice schedule and his cooperation *ith Coach Riccitelli in helping younger numbers of the team try to excel put him on *e top of the Hawk force. Further, Jim's tremendous 9.1 vault during the regular season ^^ncd him the title of MVP. "Jim was a great ^set to the team," stated Coach Riccitelli. As J"n continues on to college, he has a great possibility of being an exceptional collegiate gymnast.
Luke KeUeher Luke Kelleher was selected as the Most Valuable Player this year for both the cross country and tennis teams. As an endurance runner, Luke led the team this year in a rebuilding season for the Hawks. On the whole, the small team may not have done so well, but in cross country, it is the individual level which counts most. Luke helped his teammates on to a very successful season in this manner and thus was selected by his teammates as the MVP. On the teimis team, Luke was also a very important leader. Playing doubles with sophomore Tad Petrick, Luke finished a strong third in the Maine South Invitational, one of only two multi-team meets in which they competed. Similarly to cross country, on the individual level, Luke led the team to many successes. Maine South, however, is in by far the toughest tennis conference in the state and, as such, the team record does not signify Luke's individual success. Paul KitcheU Paul KitcheU has been on the varsity soccer team for the past three years, and this year he was elected MVP. He has been the captain of the team for two years and has been a member of the varsity squad for three years. Also this year, Paul was selected as an All-Conference player. As a defender, Paul has not scored any goals in his career here at Maine South, but he has been an important part of the strong Hawk defense which held the Conference opposition to no more than one goal per gjune this season.
Nflke Kusibab A four year member of the Maine South wrestling team, Mike Kusibab has led the Hawks throughout the year as an outstanding athlete as well as an inspirational leader. Mike was one of only two Hawk wrestlers to advance to Sectionals this year as the Hawks extended their season to face the tougher Sectional competition. Coach Ziemek has said that Mike is clearly the most talented wrestler on the team, therefore earning the title of Hawk wrestling MVP for the 1986^ season. Rob Lentz This years track and field MVP is junior Rob Lentz. Rob is a three year track team member, and a two year member of the varsity squad. Rob was a consistent scorer in all four of his events. He competed in the triple jump, the high and low hurdles, and the 1600 meter relay. Rob has already acheived a position on the Maine South All Time Top Ten in the triple jump, and did so as a sophomore. Rob's overall leadership and contributions to the Maine South track team have made him an easy choice for MVP. Dave Malin Because it is said that eighty percent of baseball is the fstching, the honor of the Hawk baseball MVP is rightfully given to pitcher Dave Malin. Dave's consistent offensive as well as defensive talents on the baseballfieldhave contributed to the Hawks' improvement over the past two years. As the team's top pitcher, Dave's athletic abilities have been a major element in the team's success which has come about recently. The Hawks have emerged continued on page 28...

In addition, Susie pitched four consecutive shutouts to tie a State record which had previously been set by Maine South's freshmen softball coach. Julie Lanahan Julie was All-Conference her senior year, and qualified for Sectionals this year on uneven bars and floor exercise.
