Rather than not doing whatever it is that needs to be done, "just do it" is the phrase that guides. Rather than not studying, stu- dents just do it. Rather than not participat- ing in sports, students just do it. Students just eat rather than not doing it; and rather than not joining activities, students just do it. Rather than not graduating, students just do it. The faculty and staff "just do it" also. They teach, assess, console, relate, and communicate; they test; they snack; they cheer; they sponsor and they advise. 2 1 Theme Opposite Page Left: Kristi Coyle can't resist the urge to just use the phone. Opposite Page Top Right: Matt Rainey is "just doing the weird thing" in the hallway. Opposite Page Bottom: Jesse Schmidt has a look of confu- sion as he tries to figure out just how to do it.

Theme/ 1 1 STUDENT 12/ Student Life Student Life/ 13 ART Aristotle said, "One could imitate things as they ought to be," and that, "Art partly completes what nature cannot bring to a finish." It is believed that art is a form of commu- nication; it expresses thoughts in a way words cannot. The teachers at Howe help students mature their ideas into beautiful works of art. At the start of the new year, Howe of- fered two new courses to this process — Ceramics, where students were able to cre- ate in the medium of clay, and Art Appre- ciation, where students could study the bril- liant artists of the past and present. Beyond the classroom, as usual, students this year had the opportunity to participate in all of the art contests sanctioned by the department.

No Skills — No Frills Have you walked through the halls and heard the humming of machines or the clicking of computer keys? You probably had entered the Business Educa- tion Department, headed by Mrs. McNeish. There are a variety of classes offered, each of which teaches and perfects numerous business skills to pre- pare students for jobs in the business world. Keyboarding classes are essential in providing stu- dents the skills with which to become proficient on a computer. Business Math can be earned as math credit for graduation requirement. Other business courses offer students unlimited possibilities for employment. Howe also offers a great learning experience with on-the-job training in programs like Cooperative Of- fice Education (COE), headed by Mrs. Perry, and Marketing Education (ME), headed by Mrs. Bare- ford. Students receive the chance to earn money, credits, and experience in an office or retail atmosphere. So learn and earn along the way. Remember ... no skills, no frills!!!!

Business/ 1 7 English The following are comments made by several English teachers when asked about their classes and students. "This year the students at Howe High School seem to be much quieter, but their attention span is the same," said English teacher, Mrs Singh, when asked what she thought was different about students this year compared to students from previous years. Mrs. Singh also stated that students who need help are welcome to come to her for any extra help they might need. Miss Bancroft commented that getting to class on time is more important to stu- dents this year than any previous year. V» hen asked how students respond towards the ISTEP, Miss Bancroft replied, "Seniors don't take the ISTEP very seriously, but they do take their grades seriously." Mr. Ervin, Department Chairman, com- mented, "Seniors don't see the value of the ISTEP." When asked what he thought stu- dents think about school, Mr. Ervin replied that he thought maybe they think their so- cial life is more important. Mrs. Singh summed up what most Eng- lish teachers probably feel, that teachers and students should be more cheerful and pleasant "since we're only here for a short time."

There are a lot of great things related to taking a for- eign language. One of these is being in the French Club. The French Club meets usu- ally every Tuesday and is sponsored by Mrs. Jody George. French Club students get to choose a French restaurant and go out to dinner there. Knowing a foreign language can help you in life; for example, if someday you want to take a vacation somewhere besides Califor- nia or Florida, maybe somewhere out of the United States such as Germany or France, it would make it a lot easier for you to be able to speak the language. In mid-September students compete with other students in the state to get a chance to go out of the United States to a foreign country. The prize is a trip for seven weeks in the summer. Students competing are juniors and in their third year of a for- eign language class. Students should try a foreign language class; they are wonderful! Marianne Hickrod ./ / Foreign Language/ 21 ss Mr. Robert Berry once again "just did it" as acting Vice-Principal and Director of Guidance. While he was covering for Vice-Principal, Mr. Bruce Beck, who worked on special assignment at the edu- cation building, Mr. David Smartz took over as acting Guidance Director. And where was Mr. Don Austin? Mr. Austin became Director of Guidance at Arlington High. Not only was he missed by students and teachers but also his time here was greatly appreciated. Be- cause of an extended absence, another from this department who has been missed a great deal by students and teachers was Dean of Girls Mrs. Marga- ret Benson. We have the same counselors as we do every year, but that's all right because then we don't have to get used to new counselors each year. It's great to keep the same year after year because, when you have the same counselor, that person becomes your friend instead of just being your counselor. Marianne Hickrod Top: Mrs. Stella Vandivier, escorted by her hus- band, takes a break from counseling duties to chaperon the prom. Middle Left: Mrs. Bea Adams, secretarial assis- tant to the counselors, works hard to keep up with all her paper work in Room 45. .Middle Right: Dean of Girls Mrs. Margaret Ben- son arrived at Howe as the school's first Assistant Dean of Girls in 1 969. In 1 974 she assumed the full duties of Dean of Girls. Her absence this year has caused the department, teachers, and students to notice especially and appreciate her contribution to the school. 22 /Counselors COUNSELORS Opposite Page Bottom: Counselors do more than coun- sel; Mrs. Sandra Petty also coaches Girls Track Team.

Right: Blending into the background, Miss Treva Car- roll studies "teacher things" while David Gut works on "student stuff." 24/ Home Economics This year in Child Care, the students brought three and four year olds to school and had a day care. The three and four year olds loved it! One child indicated that he likes being with children his own age. But most of all, he said, "I love Miss Gaither." This class gave students time to experience parenthood without actually being parents. It is, moreover, something parents — students — and three year olds can enjoy. Christina Smith Top: Miss Treva Carroll's home economics class often cooks together and sometimes sews together, but here we catch them studying together.

Industrial Technology The Industrial Technology Department got off to a great start this year at Howe! All the teachers' faces were familiar ones this year. Mr. Miller, department head, enjoyed his new position after coming to Howe from a long tenure at Forest Manor School. Mr. Hester continued his career at Howe for the eighth year, and Mr. Taflinger's fourth year at Howe qualified him to graduate again. Due to jxipular demand, a class in Mechanical Draw ing was added to the previous course offerings, and students took classes in Community Planning. Graphic Communi- cations. Electronic Communications. Constructing Struc- tures. Manufacturing. Transportation. Transportation Planning and Design, and Construction Planning and De- sign. A very popular experience in the area were the mini classes in Silk-Screening taught by Mr. Hester and Mr. Miller which allow ed students to print designs of their own choosing on paper or t-shirts. Students enjoyed varied activities, ranging from build- ing model homes to mass production of products in the manufacturing lab. Mr. Steve Taflinger 26 1 Industrial Technology \ Left: Looking as professional as ever, Benjamin Lee prepares his silkscreen.

Above: Mr. Charles Walter appears to be en- joying his lunch break or after school time in the Math office. Right: Students compete working algebra problems on the board. MATH Math teacher Ms. Alice Purvis made the following comments about the Math De- partment: This year teachers are trying to push stu- dents to stay after school for help when they know they need it. There are activity buses that students can ride home if transporta- tion is a problem. "After school, the student may benefit by an explanation that seems different from or clearer than a teacher who is or is not his regular teacher." Teachers can't teach everything students need to learn in one hour; they try, however, to do some different things like taking stu- dents to the computer lab instead of doing worksheets because these drills help them to learn more in the same amount of time. Howe also has ISTEP classes to help stu- dents score higher on the state test. Teach- ers want students to improve on all of their test scores. The City Tests are a concern also for math teachers. Teachers have an interest in making stu- dents responsible and responsive. Teachers can teach students, but getting students to participate in the learning process is often a problem. Every year the Math Department wants to improve and this year is no exception. Robyn Lucas Math/29 MEDIA Hi! If any of you have been in the Media Center in the last three years, you must have seen me. I'm always there! It has been my pleasure to serve the stu- dents of Howe High School. I work in the Media Center, and consequently, by now, I know the Dewey Decimal System forward and backward. If it is a book you need to find, I'll not be far behind. See you in the Media Center.

The Physical Education Department em- phasizes total fitness for life, with daily rou- tines being followed in each class which helps the student develop at his own rate. Performance of the President's Physical Fitness Tests will be an integral part of the spring semester testing format. The basic Physical Education classes are designed so that students experience var- ious activities and games which develop the individual physically and socially. Partici- pation by each student with the idea of hav- ing "fun by participation" is the main goal. The elective classes of Conditioning, Aerobics, and Team Sports are chosen by those students who want to enhance their athletic abilities and fitness level. These classes are physically challenging, and ath- letes consider them an integral part of their development. Mr. Thomas Renie Middle: Daron Myers knows the advisability of having someone spot him as he lifts. To assist with this safety procedure, Mark Atchley stands by.

Physical Education/ 53 34/Science SCIENCE Classes in the Science Department have always been very interesting. This year the department has added an especially inter- esting course — Anatomy. Anatomy teach- es about the human body and the structure of it. Mr. Bill Buckley is the teacher of this new course this year. Science Club is available for students particularly interested in science. This year the club has two sponsors — Mr. James Yarber and Mr. Robert Edwards, the De- partment Chairman. Being a member of the Science Club or just taking science classes can be a reward- ing experience. Many wonders in science make "just doing it" in the Science Depart- ment worthwhile. Marianne Hickrod « Opposite Page Top: Physical Science would be easier for Derrick Wilson if he wouldn't try to read his text upside down.

Science/ 35 .^.■: -'^ J Spears Speaks Mr. Spears revealed that he really enjoys history and the way it helps him to look at the world and make decisions, argue his point of view, and make educated judgments as a voter and U.S. citizen. Being a Social Studies teacher at Howe has made him learn history as never before in order to keep up with his students. He also noted that there have been a lot of changes in the department since he started in 1968. There were more courses, more students, and more teachers in previous times, and the building was even smaller. According to Mr. Spears, the Social Studies De- partment does a nice job of providing the opportunity for students to become better citizens. The depart- ment, moreover, offers advanced courses for college credit. The Social Studies curriculum also offers stu- dents the opportunity to enter a national Bicentennial contest in Government, and a "Close Up" program allows students to spend a week studying in Washing- ton D.C. The highlight of many Social Studies stu- dents is the yearly trip. The last three years the Inter- national Club has traveled to London, Berlin, and Par- is. This year's trip is to Munich, Germany, and Austria. All the challenges are there for a student to have a good time and get a good background in Social Studies at Howe.

Top Left: Bobby gets to rest from rushing to the eleva- tor to get to his classes. State and federal laws greatly affect the Special Education Department. Particular laws control the testing and evaluating in this department. The input of parents, counselors, and teachers are important in this process. Retesting and re-evaluating are also a part of this department. Close scrutiny is important to the students who are involved in it so that they get the proper education and help. After testing, many students take only a few classes in the department and their other classes outside the department in "regular" and even "gifted" classes; some even take no classes in the department. This factor depends totally on the outcome of their tests and evaluations. Many types of situations can make it helpful to be a part of this special program. Everyone, it seems — those in the department and those out — has benefited by the experience of relating with each other. 38 1 Special Education SPECIAL EDUCATION Opposite Page Middle: Some Special Education students get a front row seat for the homecoming pep session.

Special Education/ 39 HOMECOMING 40 /Homecoming Going into the Homecoming game this year, Howe was 4-1, and then managed to upset the Arlington Knights by a score of 40-6 at the game. During the week of the Homecoming, Spirit Week, students dressed as twins, wore college sweats, donned sunglasses, and carried stuffed animals. On Friday, the day of the pep rally, everyone was to wear Brown and Gold to show his spirit. At the game, Amanada Slaughter was crowned queen. Waving banners replaced floats in this year's festivities. A dance was enjoyed by many after the game. This year's Homecoming was a good time for all. Winning the game over Arlington helped a lot.

Concert Choir, Orchestra, Marching Band, Choralaires, String En- semble, Varsity Singers, Gospel Choir, and Brass Ensemble make up some of the groups of the Music Department. Mr. Thomas Lewis heads this department as- sisted by Mr. Robert Bramlett, Mr. Keith White, and Mrs. Leslie Bartolowitz. Many major performances are given for the public each year. Some of the tradition- al ones are the Spring Musical, the Pops Concert, the Summer Musical, and the Madrigals Dinner. Participation in musical groups adds much to the education of the students in- volved. A certain kind of confidence is gained from performing in front of live au- diences that cannot be obtained through any other means. Much enjoyment is added to the school days by those who perform.

Music/51 SUMMER MUSICAL As a crab, a shark, a dolphin, a whale, an eel, an octopus, and other underwater crea- tures, music students certainly found it diffi- cult to "act well [their] parts" in the Summer Musical Captain Ripple and the Ocean Bed. As the story goes, an angel. Matt McBurnie, takes Captain Ripple, James Alexander, to the cove underwater where he tries to help free many underwater creatures who are held hos- tage there through fear of the crab, Jason Cox. The dolphin, Clara Winslow and Rosie Deal (double cast), manages to free the group. Unique costumes, settings, and character- izations made for a delightful performance. Other members cast by Director Tom Lewis — some even double cast — were the whale, Rhett Lawmaster and Dave VanSell; the shark, Jerry Knowles; the eel, Carrie Deeter and Amy Lee; the octopus, Heather Hobbs; the turtle, Casady Kramer; the herring, Rob- ert Ballew and Mike Deal; the perch, Keith Trinkle; and the crab, Allison Whittemore and Laura McBurnie.

Part of this was because we had two new coaches, and part of this was because some students were just not interested in track. Even though our team was small, we still placed in the city finals and sectionals. Our team next year should be bigger and better. Shaneca Lee BOYS TRACK: In an interview with Scott Gregory, the Hilltopper staff learned that this year's re- lay team earned the school's best time and won third in the state's contest. Scott re- vealed, compared to last year's team, this year's team did better in long distance, ob- tained faster times, and produced better re- cords in shotput. Memorable experiences for the team were having to push-start the bus and deal with a lot of rain. Scott Gregory said the team did really well this year and hopes students will join the team next year. Trackl67 BASEBALL H Left: Gary Piersall slugs the ball for another one of his hits.

If the Hornets' baseball season in 1990 were summed up with just one word, that word would be "transitional." After all, with two different coaches on varsity and junior varsity levels, what else could it be called but a "transitional year." Thomas Renie stepped up from coaching on the junior varsity level to varsity. With that switch a vacancy was left for the junior varsity coaching job, and that job was filled by Coach Michael Johnson. The Hornets show promise for the future with all veteran players returning with the exception of four seniors to the varsity level. The junior varsity team also looks strong with eight returning sopho- mores to add stability to its roster. Another plus that will keep the Hornets a-buzz- ing for the future is the better care being taken of the field by the coaches, players, and students of Howe. Since the field looks presentable, other schools see the pride the Hornets have in their school. So here's to the Howe baseball program that shows nothing but talent and promise for the fu- ture!

This helped the team spirit after some rain, wind, and unsatisfactory records during the season nearly destroyed it. The team has been especially en- couraged because their coach stuck by them through all the disappointments and difficulties. Because of a lot of new reserve members who have a desire to play better, the team expects to win more games next year. Boys Golf: This year wasn't too successful for Boys Golf. We had only one varsity player returning from the pre- vious year. We had not practiced over the summer; summer practice is essential to create good scores. Lack of concentration and determination is really what made the team unsuccessful. Next year we plan to have Mike Johnson shoot under 43 and the four other lettermen to shoot under 45. Next year's goals are to win IPSAC and place high in the sectional.

A lot of girls tried out, but many quit within the first two weeks. With the encouragement of Coach Page and the help of Reserve Coach Wiggins, we turned into a pretty decent team. At first we didn't win as many games as we were capable of, but soon after with hard work and the addition of new uni- forms, we came back strong. It seems that as experience grows so does the strength of the team. Amy Moore Left: "Who is that masked player? Is it reserve catcher .lenny Deik? ■" Sure enough!" p* Above: Reserve pitcher.

FOOTBALL .•^^i^!^^'''' <^ 76/Football ?n«L76t 41f S^f ^ Once again the Hornet football program suffered the "Sectional Jinx" in 1990. Just as in 1989, the Hornets finished with a strong record but lost the first game of the Sectionals against Warren. The Hornets finished the season as City and IPSAC champions. With a limited number of sen- iors leaving, many team members will be returning. So, as the Hornet battle cry states, "The H, the O, the R, the A^, the E. the T, the S, oh yes, the Hornets" will rule in 1991. .^ir. 1990 Award Winners Most Valuable Player — DaRon Myers Best Defensive Linesman — Kevin Spargur Best Offensive Linesman — Kevin Spargur Best Defensive Player — David Moody Best Mental Attitude — Brad Hunter 1 990 All City Football Team: Garry Smith, Kevin Spargur, and Greg Zinerman.

There was a change in this year's volleyball teams; in- stead of having just a Reserve and Varsity Team, there was a Freshman Team. There were so many enthusiastic and talented young ladies that Mr. Wiggins wanted to give all a chance to play. Mr. Wiggins, who in the past coached Varsity, stepped down and coached fresh- men leaving his former assistant, Jose Ver- astique, to coach Varsity. A new Reserve coach took over this year also. The team called this new coach. Coach Tosha. Overall, the team had a win-loss record of 8- 1 6. All in all, the team did all right, but trying harder should make them better next year.

This year's team included eight seniors compared to three seniors last year. This year's seniors were Jason Bundy, Da- vid Gut, Chris Irvin, Richard Harrell, Andy Lane, Paul Pritchard, Antonio Mo- lina, and Allen Worth. Some humorous things happened this season. Two nameless students made goals for the opposing team. Some not so humorous things happened also. Chris Irvin managed to get a broken nose during the pregame.

The coach, Mr. Mahler, had the pleasure of teaching the three rookies the art of golf and refreshing the memory of Brandy and Laura. Throughout the season the girls grew in skills and friendship. Mr. Mahler showed the girls how to really "smoke the ball." Each of the girls had the opportunity to compete on a number of varied courses, with Pleasant Run as their home course.

In addition to these, Kiefner became a first in city and conference tournaments as well as a first in the State Qualifications.

Jason Sparks came away with the Best Mental Attitude award, and Most Improved Awards were given to Chris Oli- ver, John McCloud, and Barry Thompson.

Mike Williams, Marc Roland, Bennie Wagers, and Shawn Moore brought home honors at the Sectionals. Williams, Wagers, and Moore won at the Regionals and went on to the Semi-State. Moore and Williams advanced to win sixth place in the State Finals. Du- juan Thompson and Sam Goldsberry were JV champs at City. Howe's Wrestling Team has been getting better and hopefully will do even better next year. Mike Williams Bottom Left: Bennie Wagers sets to start the match.

Schwier laugh as they take a break after working hard for the guys on the football field. The "right-hand man" for the football players is a girl — a Golden Gal. The many girls who are a part of this group keep track of statistics for the players. The players wa- ter supply is carried by these Golden Gals. Most all students know them for the weekly bulletins they put out — giving glory where glory is due for the team, allowing the stu- dent body, teachers, and staff to know the progress of the players and team. In addi- tion to the bulletins, the girls make posters and hang them around the building. The girls work hard and enjoy themselves serv- ing the players and teams. When someone asks, who are those girls on the field during varsity, reserve, and freshman games, the answer is the Golden Gals.

This year the girls were involved with, not one but two, large meets at Howe, the Invitational and the Sectional. They work hard for the team members but have their most fun surprising their secret wrestlers with encouraging messages and actions.

The cheerleading camp that the Varsity and Junior Varsity Squads attended at DePauw University in August prepared them well for the season. The Junior Varsity Cheerleaders (Heather Sommers, Allison Whittemore, Lachnwda Payton, Lisa Monroe, Charla Collins, Serita Digby, Kisha Tandy — Al- ternate) and the Freshman Cheerleaders (Shannon Tolin, Karen Parker, Becky Dugger, Andrea Morgan, Heather Pinner) led fans to cheer the Junior Varsity and Freshman Football Teams to victory.

Strangely enough, the girls are more equal in size than some squads in the past. They also seem to get along better than some squads in the past. Even though the team has not been winning, the girls have kept a positive attitude. This is prob- ably achieved because of their excellent sponsor, Mrs. Shelley Keller, and the varsi- ty co-captains, Felicia Willis and NaTrina Hill.

Of course, when we say that, we think about academics. However, this is also a time to learn about ourselves and those around us. When we remember our days in high school, we will think about our friends and classmates who made our days a special time. We have lived together, all of us, in the classrooms and halls of Thomas Carr Howe eight hours a day, nine months a year. All of the smiles we've shared, all of the reassuring hugs we've given, all of the friends we've made over the years, and all of the learning we have shared together have made up our time in school. Living, laughing, learning, loving, and remembering — that's Howe High School. Graduation is a time when many seniors say good- bye to their friends and classmates to move on with greater accomplishments. Some will go to college; some will go to work; some will start families of their own; the rest . . . well, they have our blessing. We'd like to wish every graduating senior the best of luck in whatever life has in store for him. We hope you will treasure the memories of your high school years as a member of the Class of 1991. For Seniors: A Poem Above: Senior Robyn Lucas works hard to complete her class work so she can participate in school activi- ties. Single file and yet together We've shared our greatest days. And we carry common memories in different ways. Though we don't know where we're going. We'll cherish where we've been. Hold on to the moment; Let the feelings show. Hold on to the moment; never let it go. I can picture us together With my arms around my friends. Let me hold on to the moment before it ends. There was laughter; There were tears through the dozen golden years.

Its in- school projects include Homecoming, dances, candy gram sales, the Winter Sports Festival, and such. In the community, Howe's Student Council gives parties for a local nursing home, decorates Irvington with lumin- aria the Sunday before Christmas, and holds a yearly drive to gather food and clothing for the needy. This year is a rebuilding year for the Student Council. With a small, closely knit group of hardworking individuals, the Council is establishing new tradi- tions and approaching old problems from new angles. In the years ahead. Student Council will continue to grow and change with the times, but the Student Council will always be a vital part of Howe.

Only five previous mem- bers signed up for this year. Miss Shirley Smith returned after taking over in the middle of the year last year and remained with the staff throughout the year. Two pages that particularly interested the staff were added to the book this year — a page of senior baby pictures and a "Funky Spirit" page. Awards were added for students who had served on the staff for at least two years. The awards went to Elizabeth Deeter, Marianne Hickrod, Tracy Kord, Denise Price, Christina Smith, and Christopher Whaley.

Two of these activities are the Rifle Team and the Color Guard. The Rifle Team competes in matches with other city schools and in meets throughout the state. The Color Guard presents the National Colors at varsi- ihletic events, graduation, and community functions. Other activities which students can join without being enrolled in JROTC are the girls and boys drill teams. Last year the Howe Girls Drill Team finished first in city competition and the Rifle Team finished third. The JROTC program also offers the student the chance to investigate further educational opportu- nities. Information on college scholarships, l»th civilian and military, is included in the curriculum. JROTC is an educational, challenging but fun class. Students that have chosen to join this proud organization will make a significant investment in .heir future. Albert .Adams
