Don Johnson (Dave Lybarger). and the Blues Brothers (Chris Snyder and Mike Beebe). were instantly recognized in the halls and classrooms. Nerd Day, which was scheduled in hopes of repeating the enormous success of last year. inspired many to forget about being cool for a day. Students combed through their attics for long lost articles of their parents like plaid "high water" pants, wide polka dot ties, and hornrimmed glasses. They were nerds not only in their appearonce, but in their actions too. Spilling books, tripping off the bus, walking through the cafeteria with open zippers, and falling down the stairs were Just a few of the typical Nerd stunts. Drag Day separated the women from the boys and the men from the girls. Most people were naturally very reluctant to even consider changing their

sex in the name of school spirit, but a courageous and crazy handful did go through with it and went all the way. Guys with lipstick and high heels and girls with sport jackets and mustaches were not an unusual sight on Thursday. Maroon and Grey Day, the traditional closing of the week marked by spirit and fun, received the most response of any of the days. Decked out in maroon t-shirts, grey cordouroy pants, maroon football or swimming jackets, buttons. painter caps, and carnations sold by ASTRA, students overwhelmingly exemplified the spirit which joined them together. With high spirits. students gathered into the auditorium to the sounds of the Marching Band for the annual Homecoming pep rally on Friday. This was a great way to end Spirit Week and a good kickoff for the football game against Shikellamy.

Weather Never Stopped Us e managed to get there somehow Modern day conveniences made it very easy for State High students to take things for granted. Transportation to and from school was an example of this. Our grandparents have said how they had to get up at 5:00 in the morning and trudge through the icy waistdeep snow, four miles to school and back ... up-hill. both ways! Indeed students in the eighties had the luxury to choose the means by which they got to school. No matter what form of transportation we used we had to get to school.
On the other hand, there were many criticisms from those who would have preferred not to ride the bus. "It was always way too crowded and its arrivals and departures were very inconsistent," said Monte Goode, a bus-user not by his choice. The fire-drill evacuations requiring everyone to jump out of the back of the bus also became a nuisance to everyone. "Well, this training will certainly prove to be beneficial if I should ever realize my dream of becoming a commando," quipped Dave Gouran.
Although taking the school bus was the most widely-used means of transportation, it was not the most convenient. In a positive light, the reliable buses always showed up every day close to students' houses and provided a free ride, even to those residing outside of State College. Going to games and field trips were also possibilities enjoyed because of the availability of the school bus. Although most sports teams had to ride the school bus to their away games, the football team had the luxury of riding in a coach bus.
Some students were lucky enough to avoid such inconveniences by driving the family car, or perhaps their own set of wheels. Being able to have a few more minutes of precious sleep without worrying about getting to the bus stop at 7:43 a.m. was a major advantage for drivers. Leaving the house when they were good and ready, picking up boyfriends or girlfriends, stopping downtown or at the mall after school, and picking up breakfast from Mr. Donut were some of the benefits to those with control of tne

keys. In addition, there were those who just used the good old-fashioned method of walking to school if they lived nearby. Some people found it to be good exercise while others appreciated the solitude and time to think. However. the weather was not always very cooperative. "I hated it when I have to walk in terrible weather like rain," exclaimed Sherri Bausch, "It was kind of satisfying, however, to relax as everyone else hurried to leap on their buses before they left." As Lisa Gamm mentioned, "Walking lets me hang around with friends after school instead of having to rush off." Students managed to get themselves to school by taking the school bus, driving, walking, biking, taking the CATA bus, or even skateboarding. Whatever the mode used, it sure was better than a chilly four mile walk at 5:00 a.m.!
tyles range from the sophisticated to the outrageous From the oversized to the tight, the traditional to the outrageous, the sophisticated to the sporty, the old to the new, students showed their individuality through their dress and clothing style. The oversized look hit State College with an explosion of color and comfort. Loose fitting shirts were tucked in at the waist or surrounded by a big, bright belt at the hips. Cotton sweaters In vibrant colors accented this comfort able style for both guys and girls.

Oppression-- Racism
I
Nelson Mandela, imprisoned since 1962 on a v9riety of charges, Including conspiracy and sabotage, was jailed for treason. However, from his prison cell, he became a martyr and a leader for the oppressed blacks of South Africa. The South African policy of apartheid sparked controversy internationally. Apartheid, defined as "separate development for separate races," was actually a means of keeping the blacks in South Africa subordinate to the ruling whites by restricting them to certain homelands, certain jobs, and denying them many of the privileges they should have had as citizens of South Africa. This problem had been going on for years, the South African government all the while claiming that it was working towards equality. The progress, if any, was too slow to be accepted by the blacks, who began to rise up against the system. Under the leadership of such influential figures as Bishop Desmond Tutu, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, they began to vocalize their discontent.
The issue which really reached home • was the question of divestment. Given that the practice of apartheid was against the tenants of democracy, America had to disapprove of the South African government. Many felt that to make an impact on the situation, the United States should take its businesses out of South Africa, thereby creating economic pressure. Others felt that this would be of little assistance to the blacks, since these American factories employed many black workers who would be jobless if we did in fact divest. The issue was highly explosive, and there were rallies all over the country, including right here at Penn State. The issue became especially hot in this town because Penn State had investments in South Africa which many students felt should be taken out. The black students on campus threatened to keep other blacks from coming to Penn State. This action would affect all of us, making our community even more homogenous than it already is, not to mention the effect it would have on the University's athletic teams.

At fifty-four, the youngest member of the Politburo, Mikhail Gorbachev, used American media like none before him, issuing press statements and improving communication. In November, the first U.S.-Soviet summit in over six years took place in a lakeside villa on the outskirts of Geneva. The two plans which Gorbachev wanted to eliminate or limit were the Strategic Defense Initiative and Star Wars, Reagan's plan to develop a defensive shield in space against nuclear · missiles. However, on these two issues, Reagan was immovable in his efforts to protect them. In January, Gorbachev made a disarming proposal to initiate a sweeping reduction in all nuclear arms and nuclear testing. He set forth a bold schedule for making the world nuclear-free by 1999. This proposal was met with wary skepticism. Many felt that a good deal of it was propaganda, intended to sway public opinion and put Reagan on the defensive. However, these negotiations hinted at what we all hoped for, a genuine arms-control breakthrough. In State College, there was a six mile walk for nuclear freeze. It was attended by several students from the high school, and other people from the University and town. The issue of nuclear arms control was an ever-increasing part of our awareness.
One point of extreme political tension in the world had been the Philippine Islands. The controversy had revolved around the Presidential election of the Philippines, facing twenty year Presi-. dent Ferdinand Marcos against political newcomer, Corazon Aquino. Since 1965, Marcos had been particularly unchallenged leader of his country; however, following the 1982 assassination of her husband Benigo Aquino, Corazon Aquino decided to run against Marcos in the first Presidential election in sixteen years. The main concern that surrounded the' election was the legitimacy of the results. Aquino was widely supports throughout the islands because sh represented a new beginning free o the corruption that had marked Mar, ocs' twenty year reign. On February 7th, the official count gave Marcos th victory by the margin of 54% to 46%. However, both sides declared victory Though Marcos tried to maintain politl cal control, everything seemed t work against him. Marcos' failin health, Aquino's strong support, and fl nally, Marcos' two top military lead calling for his resignation was enoug to convince the long time leader tho his term was over. With the inaugur tion of Corazon Aquino the Filopin welcomed in a new age for th country.

However. for the first time we could send out spacecrafts to test and observe. Missions left from many nations to take close pictures and to discover what materials composed the tail of the comet. Scientists hoped that this information would give us clues about the universe.
Because of the structure of the city and the crowded housing, rescue from the rubble was especially difficult. After the pain and anguish, one could only hope that the Mexicans could rebuild, could come together with strength after a national catastrophe, and rebuild their capital.

The eruption on September 19th of this ancient volcano buried the Columbian town of Amero, once a prosperous coffeegrowing town. The explosion, roughly equivalent to the eruption of Mount Vesuvius which destroyed Pompeii, was caused by a build up of molten rock and trapped , gases. Similiar forces were responsible , for the Mexican earthquake.

It was a slow count down, but Cincinnati's Pete Rose finally broke Ty Cobb's record of 4, 191 career hits. On September 8th against the Chicago Cubs, Pete hit a line drive to right field to tie the record. He finally broke the record on September 12 when he hit a fly out to left field during the first inning against the San Diego Padres. It was an historical moment in baseball history because it will be a long time before anyone can top Pete Rose.

Chicago Bears Rule
What team had an over three hundred pound defensive lineman who also played running back in the goal line offense, a quarterback who was as hot off the field as he was on, a running back who never quit, and a coach who created the best football team in the league? Who else but the Chicago Bears with such colorful characters of William "Refrigerator" Perry, Jim McMahon, Walter Payton, and Mike Dicka. The Bears were undefeated most of the season until they met up with the Dolphins in Miami. Chicago came back to finish the rest of the season without a loss and shut out the Los Angeles Rams and the New York Giants in the playoffs. Highly confident, the Bears made a video called The Super Bowl Shuffle in which the whole team rapped to the music of other teammates. Awaiting the Bears in the Super Bowl were the underdogs, the New England Patriots. On Sunday, January 26, the Chicago Bears dominated the Patriots leading the whole game and winning 43-13, the biggest spread ever in Super Bowl history.
The era of American dominance in tennis seemed to be closing when Boris Becker became at the age of seventeen the youngest player and the only unseeded player ever to win Wimbledon. Following that triumph, he led West Germany to its first Davis Cup win over the United States and into the final where Germany lost to Sweden in a close heartbreaking defeat. Many speculated that as this new star emerged with astonishing quickness, a new cycle was beginning. In August, Boris Becker captured the Association of Tennis Professionals title, a U.S. Open warmup tournament in Ohio, with a victory over third-ranked Mats Wilander. He and the others of the new generation of tennis players, mainly the Swedes, threatened the dominance of such Americans as McEnroe and Jimmy Connors.

Participating in a variety of sports, students were exposed to the different types of physical exercise. Beginning with tennis, lacrosse or soccer in the fall, students headed outdoors for class. Physical Education teachers Mr. Galen McWilllams, Mrs. Cheryl Speakman and Mr. Len Rockey led the drills which taught the basics.

The last two weeks of school were spent in the swimming pool. In a very relaxed atmosphere, the pool was a nice break in the day. The Special Education Department showed that handicaps could be overcomed. Among the mentally retarded students, some were classified as "educable" while others were considered mentally retarded. However.the three teachers, Mrs. Kathy Bronsdon, Mrs. Sharon Pearson, and
Miss Anita McCoy did all . they could to assure that the thirteen mentally retarded students developed to their own potential. Since. each of the students was at a different level of ability, the teaching was more personal and one-onone. The Special Education students were placed in regular classes as much as . possible. Since this was not • suitable to all the students, they were in "occupational" classes within the program. The Special Education program also provided a practical education for its students. For instance, all the students used the comput- · er, as well as the word pro- .. cessor for creative writing. The students also shopped, , planned, and cooked meal once a week. The teachers were very close to their students and • celebrated individual ac- · complishments with them. ' Some held jobs, and others, competed in the Special Olympics. Miss Anita McCoy< said of her cldss, "They are· more eager to learn; they• know they need help. The class provided very close,; warm relationships and. atmosphere."
, lanning for Tomorrow
hterested farmers learn special skills for future An opportunity to learn a special trade while going to the high school was provided by the vocational agric u It u re classes. Because State College is located among acres of farmland, those students who lived on a farm as well as those who enjoyed farming took advantage of these classes. Meeting near the shop wing of the school. they seemed to be an isolated part of the school; however. they were not. Vo-Ag classe.s began in the ninth grade and continued through the twelfth grade. The students were taughi a little bit about every aspect of agriculture.

ndependence Key to Future Cooperative Work Experience, Modified School Day guide goals While most students were in school for eight periods, Modified School Day students were in for half a day or less. The program gave students the chance to pursue a special interest. Thirty to thirty-five students applied for the program in the spring of their junior year. A committee of teachers decided whether the student qualified or not. Academic courses, SAT scores and intended activities determined whether the student was accepted. The program was either yearround or only for the spring semester, depending on the student's choice. Mr. Draper Read, the MSD counselor, advised the stuWith afternoon hour:s free, Anna Secor s:ometimes goes to the art rbom after her last class and eats lunch with Dan Cohn.

Although sometimes it seemed as if students drifted into day dreams during class, in truth we picked up not only the lectures, but the teacher's individual flair.

Clubs provide opportunities to travel and excel The Debate Team spent a memorable year defending and rejecting the resolution that, "the Federal government should establish a comprehensive national policy to protect the quality of water in the United States." By spending countless time researching the topic, listening to speakers. and attending weekly meetings, the team was able to capture impressive accomplishments at several tournaments. The junior varsity team provided the momentum by placing third out of twenty-two teams at Cathedral Prep in Erie. This was the first tournament of the season. Through strategy efforts and practice rounds. both varsity and junior varsi-
ty teams received top place rankings in tournaments in Pittsburgh, Philadelphia. and New York, as well as in other tournaments. But perhaps most important was that the team worked hard and worked together, gaining national recognition and contributing to State High's reputation of excellence. Like Debate Club, Scholastic Quiz had a reputation of excellence to uphold. Students in Scholastic Quiz had to be bright, quick, and able to remember trivial details. They met every Wednes' day after school in the Inter' mediate High with other students from grades nine through twelve. Advised by
.dli~
Mrs. Carol Ann Gentry and Mrs. Julie Gittings. these students practiced answering questions from all areas of knowledge. Two teams competed against each other in answering questions about history, geography, sports. entertainment. literature, and many other subjects. But it was not just tun that these people had in mind. They were preparing for the possibility of competition with other schools. The students participating in Scholastic Quiz hoped to be chosen to represent the school in competitions that were held. In Chess Club, students polished their chess playing skills in hopes of entering compe-
titians. The Chess Club orgc nized their first chess tear which competed in sever< interscholastic events. In No vember, the team partici pated in the U.S.A. Junie Chess Olympics in Bradford Pennsylvania, where the, came in third place. Ad vised by Mr. Phil McCall, thE Chess Club met every Tuesday alter school where the\ practiced their strategie, and prepared for the State Championships held in Philadelphia.

Reading the notes from the meeting, secretary Rob reviews the latest activities of the Chemistry Club.
Students practice journalistic interests and artistic talents The Student Voice, News and Views was the latest attempt at a school sponsored newspaper. Advised by Mrs. Janet Kretchmar with Bill Cahir, editor, and Roy Austin, co-editor, the staff strove to produce a publication that would spark student interest. The first change made was the new name which more accurately described the newspaper than The Paw Print, as it had been called in the past. Due to the lack of funding, the paper was unable to develop a new format. Students involved with the paper felt a sense of pride and accomplishment, knowing they had helped
start a quality publication that will no doubt become a State High tradition in years to come. Another outlet for jounalistic talent was Paging Youth, a collection of Senior and Intermediate High students who wrote feature articles for the Centre Daily Times. The writers and photographers met with their advisor, Mrs. Carol Ann Gentry, Mondays after school. Under editors Judy Bollag and Lisa Malinsky, Paging Youth was the only school organization in which the members received monetary reimbursement for their labors. The members of Paging Youth
not only received the personal satisfaction of having their stories printed in the newspaper but also helped make the community aware of events going on at our school. Increasing artistic awareness, the Fine Art Club, advised by Mr. Robert Placky, entered its second year. Holding official meetings every first Wednesday of the month, the club sponsored visits by guest artists and viewings of various art films. On the remaining three Wednesdays of the month, the club held Open Studio. Sometimes hectic but always fun, Open Studio pro-

ThE group met its goal, an over night stay in New York City in part with profits from ar sales, bake sales, and othe fund raisers. Overall, the FinE Art Club gave students ar artistic outlet outside o school.

VIC offered them a chance to share their problems and experiences with others in a similar situation. The members could meet with other students to compare notes on work and school opportunities and to find fellowship in other teenagers on the work force. The officers and various committees met on a regu-
lar basis. usually monthly. to plan activities. Advised by Mrs. Connie Infield and Dr. Donald Cross, the club worked to raise money for their Parent -Employer Appreciation Banquet held in April.

Peers try their hand at politics and policy making The International Relations Club (IRC), led by Dr. Ron Wilkerson, spent its time looking at the United Nations policies and international diplomacy. During the fall, candidates were required to give a two-minute speech and to defend their views against veteran members. Those who survived became members. The club was assigned to represent the country of India in a model United Nations session in New York City. The members spent countless hours researching its political and economic policies in preparation for the session. In addition to research, the group held practice debates to improve the members' debat-

ing skills. At the New York session, groups from all over the nation came to participate. The IRC gave students a chance to learn more about a foreign country in addition to understanding the workings of international relationships. Closer to home, Model Legislature, a club revived after a year of absence, taught members about government on a state level. A club directly associated with the YMCA, the Model Legislature's advisor, Ms. Leslie Davis, was from the YMCA and all club members had to join the State College branch of the YMCA. The group went to three conferences where they met with
students from other schools to work on writing and passing legislative bills. The year culminated in April with a mock state government session in Harrisburg. This club gave members the opportunity to become acquainted with governmental procedures as well as have fun. Dealing with the procedures and politics of the school board, the Student Advisory Committee (SAC) was one of the most powerful student organizations. This group was chartered by the School Board to advise them of the students' views of policy issues. The commit tee was sponsored by Mr. Joe Crawshaw and Mr. Hubie White with Debbie
Heicklen, chairperson and Paw an Patil, secretary. One of the most diverse organizations in our school, SAC encompassed representatives, chosen on the basis of their written applications and their personal interviews, from many areas of education. Among the monthly reports was one on the quality of education in our school and another on vandalism. The committee sent two representatives to the Pennsylvania School: Board Association, where路 they participated in panel] discussions and other con- : vention activities. SAC pro-1 vided a powerful tool tori those students who werel concerned about the issues:j affecting our school.

Members aid confused or injured students To many students, the library was a complicated maze of books, journals, magazines, and media material. In order to make the gathering of information less of a challenge, a number of students volunteered during their study halls to help the librarians. These library aides possessed an understanding of the organization and uses of the library and passed this Information on to perplexed peers. Another group that helped out confused students was the office aides. Sometimes they were in the office sorting mail or filing excuses or even helping out a fellow student. Other times they were in the halls collecting
absentee slips or taking messages to students and teachers. The office aides had volunteered during their study hall time to do any jobs they might be asked to do. Some days were really slow with not much to do, but other days they were kept running right up to the final bell. Taking notes to teachers was one of the most common jobs, but not the only one. Mail that came into the school had to be sorted and put into the proper mailboxes. Of course, there were always things to be filed. The job of an office aide was varied but fun.
vital part of the sports program. Student Trainers, under the supervision of Mr. Jim Roslevich, treated minor injuries and assisted in rehabilitation processes for seriously injured athletes. Assigned to a sport each season, all of the trainers became familiar with members of their respective teams. This became an asset in aiding athletes to reach their full potential. The trainer's job started with the beginning of pre-season practices and continued through any playoffs or championships. They taped ankles and wrists to provide support during路 games and practices.

the student trainers reviewed techniques and evaluated skills.

Knowledge gained from this activity could be applied to future careers or simply added to experience.

Striving first for musical excellence and then for precise mpvement, the Marching Band presented a different show each time they took the field.

chik, and Drum Major Louis Persic enabled the 120member band to uphold traditions and try new techniques simultaneously. The band practiced throughout August and the fall, hitting hashes and forming diagonals on the slope of the Intermediate High School parking lot. For an added flair, the performers worked on the most difficult opener in the history of the band, using Mr. Richard Victor's new innovation of plumbing tubes to maintain curvatures while in motion. Through the new maneuvers, the band performed seven different shows including ones at three away
games. Besides entertaining the crowd during Friday night halftime shows, the band appeared frequently in community events such as Grange Fair and various parades, including the State College and Penn State Homecoming Parades, and the Back-the-Lions National Championship parade. On the lighter side, the Halloween Parade, an event Marching Band always participated in, displayed everything from nerds like Ed Grimley to heroes like Batman and Opus. A Pep Band was also on call for school assemblies, pep rallies, small community functions, and other affairs such as Back-
to-School Night and the Powder Puff game. The senior show, performed at the last home football game, was the culmination point of the year as the sel nlors proudly stepped for] ward to play the Alma Mal ter. During the show Ton!

Performers participate in district festivals In January, a select group of twenty-one orchestra members left for the four day District 3,4, and 6 Orchestra Festival held at the Clearfield Area High School. As the participants arrived, the tension began to build. Each person was thinking and worrying about his tryout. scheduled for later that evening. The tryouts determined seating arrangements on stage and, more importantly, who would go on to Regional Orchestra in March. When the tryouts were over, the students all relaxed and went to the home of their host family. By 8:30 the next morning, they were back up on stage, practicing. Then on the third night of the festival, everyone packed up their instruments and spent the evening either at a dance or at the pool, to enjoy the

only scheduled activity that gave the participants time to relax and . talk to their new found friends. On Saturday, the last day of the festival, everyone dressed in their long gowns and best suits for the concert. Following the climactic event, everyone headed for home exhausted, but happy with the feeling of complete satisfaction for what they had accomplished in the past four days. Twenty-one members of the A Cappello Choir were selected to spend January 27-February 1 at East Juniata High School for the District Chorus Festival. The first evening was spent in auditions, and eight State College students received scores high enough to qualify them for the regional festival in March. Thursday and
Friday were spent with Guest Conductor Mr. David Dick from Mansfield University. He taught new techniques to the chorus and enabled the 204 singers from twenty-eight high schools to collectively present the challenging program. Louis Persic was selected to sing a feature solo, Margaret Arnold was awarded the District Chorus Scholarship, and Lori Williams and Mardi Lowry were elected to accompany the choir. It was a memorable experience for all who participated. The District Band Festival created both an outlet and an opportunity for perfection, as twenty-four State College students participat ed in the event. They arrived in Bellefonte to tryout the first night, but could relax later as they went home
with their host families tho路 evening. A triumphan路 group the next day afte chairs were announced State College student: could begin practice know ing that twenty-two of therr were going to Regionals fourteen students had re ceived first chairs, and no路 one had received lowe than a third chair. For thE next three days they prac ticed and performed music which they had worked or individually for months be forehand. Guest Conducto Robert Zellner not onl1 strived for an excellent con cert, but taught the youn( musicians invaluable lesson in performance. To end thE experience, the partici pants put on two concerts each including a slide shov to Hooray for Hollywooi and the singing of God o Our Fathers.
