This is the environment in which East proudly stands. The unique combination of surroundings acts as a learning center and playground for students, who take full advantage of the magnificent resources. No other school can boast such a diverse and dynamic environment so easily accessible to its students. The Capitol is an invaluable laboratory for government classes and the United Nations club which often visit to experiment and learn about politics through mock legislatures, lectures and interviews. Closer to home, we find the vastness of City Park across the street from school. East's school surroundings offer a little of everything to the lucky students who take advantage of them. Those who integrate these different aspects of their environment receive a truly unique and special experience. DYNAMICALLY DIFFERENT above and beyond An integrated part of the East environment, the state capitol, heart of the Rocky Mountain empire, provides a unique center for government education . 2 SURR OUND! GS �• The obvious focus of the student environment, East unites its awesome surroundings. 4 Frequented by gorgeous sunsets, the Rocky Mountains, only a 45-minute drive, are the playground for Skeast, Geology class, and students in general. SURROU DINGS 3 �Trying to design your own social life can be a long and tiresome task. East students use th ir free time for many social activities, whether it is a small lunchtime study s ssion or an extravagant party on Friday night. Students basically divide their time to: school or extra-curricular. Despite students' desire for this valuable free time from school, they us this idea to smooth out a rough academic schedule. Most students become close friends with their teachers, thus making classes more fun and personal. Other students find lunchtime, where the latest gossip and Twinkies are shared, to be especially relaxing. On top of the school's social offerings, extra-curricular activities play a key role in a student's wound-up time. Some like to join specialized clubs like Black Student Alliance and, the most popular, Drama Club. It is never forgotten, however, that most of th student's time is mainly sp nt socializing with friends. This comraderie can lead to large to carpools, a night spent at one of the local movie theaters like Colorado Four, or an exotic foreign film at the Esquire. Friends find student council dances, such as the East-Manual sock hop, a great place to loosen their tied knots and fade their blues. A usual night at the dance includes the guys taking their dates out to dinner then the dance and maybe a chaotic party close by. Student council also provides entertainment by new contests, guest speakers, student unity and a more relaxed school atmosphere. These social activities express the students' desire to expand their social horizons and get wilder.

OCIAL 5 �Academics are the key factor in the success of students. Students choose classes as long as they meet graduation requirements. They decide if they want to take challenging accelerated courses or relatively easy ones. A majority of students mix studies with outside activities and balance schedules to meet their needs. As freshmen, many students are surprised and even shocked at the amount of required school work. Many freshmen have a difficult time adjusting to a new school and do not take academics as seriously as they could. The first year is usually spent learning about East and deciding which types of classes interest them. By sophomore or junior year, most students have decided how seriously they want to take their studies. For many, it is not rare to see a student doing homework during lunch hours on the Esplanade or in the enrichment center. In addition, juniors must begin thinking about life after high school. Both years are demanding because students are expected to know the challenges that face them. With the pressure of college classes and post high school plans, seniors are often overwhelmed by the work. Every year ends with a wave of "senioritis" in which many students do not attend class regularly. No matter what year, students are aware of the importance of school work. Academics at East are impressed upon every student in the diverse student body.

East students seemed to be in keeping with this old adage, having taken advantage of breaks and weekends to travel on vacation, for study, or out of necessity. Reasons for student trips ranged from visiting friends and relatives to funerals, weddings, and shopping. Many students were involved in youth group trips, for which they earned the money themselves through fundraisers or regular jobs. This provided a chance for them to make new friends while experiencing a new culture. Throughout the year, many of East's students were lucky Geologic phenomena like Old Faithful draw some students to our own nat1onal parks. enough to participat ·n a variety of trips.

Whether it is golf, gymn tics, or football, all sports tend o consume 12 SPORTI G LIFE the participants' time, especially upperclassmen who are varsity players. Although games or practices last only until early evening, most athletes are too exhausted and hungry to concentrate on homework. The result: it doesn't get done until the following day, just before its due. However, most sport participants agree that it's well worth it. Friends are made by participating in sports. For freshmen, it's an excellent way to meet people. Stu- dents love the competition against over rival schools! Even students who don't participate in sports appreciate the spirit and enjoyment that games and meetings bring. After all, what would we do on Friday nights if there weren't football and basketball games? How could we live through those last months of school without lacrosse games, barefooted and in the sun? And what would homecoming be without a homecoming game? �4 Maintain1ng the1r status as league champions for the fifth year out of the last six, the soccer team continues to be one of the most popular sports with both athletes and fans . • Football games include tremendous efforts from the fans, band, and the players alike. • Many hours of practice pay off as a player breaks for a first down • Giving their support, juniors Kara Strauch and Sarah Sh1kes, are a vital component of victory. �• An early morning walk from the parking lots help faculty and students alike prepare for the upcoming day. • As James Pittman, senior, chews thoughtfully, he contemplates the rest of his busy day. • Sophomores Amy and Martha Hite enjoy a relaxing lunch. • By studying for an upcoming French test, juniors Amy Wagner and Carol Atencio use their free time effectively. �4 Throughout the school day, nurse Emma Jackson helps students like Robert McGregor cope with their health needs. • Senior Otis Davis makes an important business call .

How does she cope with her busy, unrelenting schedule? As Liz says, " There really is no effective way to get around the monotonous school day." Still, students try to escape.

" Excitement from being crowned the 1987-88 Mr. & Ms. Angel is shown on the faces of Derek Geathers and Kady Bodenheimer. The junior class put on a successful second annual Mr. & Ms. Angel contest February 6. The candidates were nominated by the students and were chosen by teachers who judged the contest. A variety of competitions throughout the evening such as casual wear, talent, and evening wear were the basis for the judge's decision. Ten finalists were chosen who had to answer certain questions to the best of their ability. Finally the judges made the decision to name Derek Geathers and Kady Bodenheimer Mr. & Ms. Angel. The contest went over well, showing potential for another East High tradition. It was approximately 8:02 a.m., January 21, and all was silent at East. The students were taking their first final exam, when all of a sudden, the fire drill sounded. A wave of relief swept through some hallways while frustration and anxiousness filled others. Students filed out, shocked and surprised at the interruption. Unfortunately for some, the school was safe - it was a false alarm. Because of a power outage throughout Capitol Hill, the school's electrical system seemed broken, which led administrators to believe there was a serious wiring problem. ~. According to junior Kerry Fitzg1bbons, the Bronocs are number one. XPECTED �SURPRISE! unexpected excitement tudents are given a chance to show their spirit for East by w aring r d & whit ev ry Friday. However, th Friday before uperbowl XXII was a little different. A Broncos Dress Day was initiat d for students to show th ir support for D nv r's football t am. D votion was displayed in a variety of ways; some proudly wore blue and orange clothing, others wore Bronocs t-shirts, and the very true fans painted th ir fa s blu and orang and plastered Broncos paraph nalia all over their bodies. Despite the deviation from East's red & white day, the students spirit was shown as brightly as ever. "Build bridges not walls," was a theme f.·om th motivation assembly held F bruary 3 in the auditorium. The movie Bridges was shown to str ss the importance of forgiving and forgetting, life without viol nee, and working hard to get along with others. Th movie, starring several prom1nent figures such as Kim Fields and Kirk Cameron, was designed to help students cope with themselves, peers, family, and teachers.

Governor lamm gives a speech about the students' need to motivate themselves. VOICE OF EXPERIENCE unique opportunities Freshmen accelerated English students had the chance to attend a motivating seminar about authors and literature. Students who participated had to show their commitment by completing three specific assignments. First, they wrote a biographical research paper about an author, or a critical review. ext, they had to write a critical essay on one of the books, and finally, attendance at the workshop, which included dressing up as either an author or character. When former Governor Lamm visited, he brought up many controversial issues about student education. His speech involved the students by introducing a discussion in which students could voice their opinions. AI hough a variety of topics were discussed, some aroused heated arguments. Students appreciated the opportunity to expand their knowledge on the educational system. 20 ACTIVITIES �In honor of Martin Luther King's birthday, an all-school assembly was given, which included Mr. Tracy and pianist Abdullah-Felipe Hall. Mr. Tracy began the assembly by introducing the guest, who spoke of Dr. King and his effect on the black movement in a respectful and touching way. On the first day of spring musical rehearsal, some cast members showed surprise at seeing Mr. Thalhofer and Mr. Rivera sitting on the stage with the kids. Both were friendly and insisted on being called "T" and "Dave". Although they seemed uncomfortable at first, they were quickly accepted as part of the cast. Due to a lack of experienced student actors, Mr . Van Epps enlisted these talented teachers to play leads in the show. With strong emot1on, guest Mr. Hall expresses his feelings for Martin Luther King in a song he composed. • During a music rehearsal, Mr. Rivera and senior Kieran elson find that laughing is the best way to make t1me fly. 4 Rehearsal amuses kids and teachers alike, as Mr. Thalhoffer, Sandy Robnett , Mr. Rivera, and Kieran elson discover. �As truly dedicated cheerleaders, Shaniece Owens, Audree Castleman, Traci Latson and lisa Hardiman perform even in cold weather. • Cheering requires much concentration as shown by senior lisa Hardiman and junior Monica Davis. • Providing guidance and support for the squad, seniors liz Warren and Shaniece Owens proved to be efficient co-head cheerleaders. �4 In sync with the other cheerleaders, junior April Deleon • smiles as she correctly p rforms the move.

"What do you do to an Angel you meet? You get down on your knees, you can't pray on your feet!" This was one of the many cheers chanted by the spirited cheerleading squad. The group of 16, sponsored by Jan Anderson, supported all athletics and spread spirit around the school. "Cheerleading is fun, but it takes a lot of time, coordination, and hard work," said co-head cheerleader Liz Warren. But the determination of creating and learning new chants and moves paid off as the cheerleaders led our teams to victory with enthusiasm, dedication, and a smile.

What classes are offered in which students can practice and develop their talents? Students with a musical interest can join one of the several bands taught by Mr. Jerry oonan. Almost every type of instrument is offered in concert band, jazz ensemble, advanc d band, and concert orchestra. Kathy Hayes and Luann Howard teach the dance classes ranging from beginning to advanced dance. Students with a desire to expr ss themselves through dance concepts, elements, and choreography are sure to find a class to meet their needs. Drama class levels 1-8 are taught by Mr. VanEpps and Mrs. McBirnie. Staging direction, memorizing cuttings, and improvizations are just a few of the techniques which students can learn and explore. Choir is another class for those with talented interests. Concert choir, Angelaires, and advanced choir, directed by Mr. James Guinn, give students an opportunity to test their vocal abilities. Students are able to enjoy and learn more about their interests in the fine arts, through several classes offered at East. T1ps on improving performance are given by Mr. VanEpps to his drama class. 24 J -CLASS �Many tvpes of in~truments are play~d m the or chcstra, including the stnng bass played by sophomore !>helene RKhards t Concentrating on form, senior Alison Rosenbaum expresses her talent m dance class. • In Angelaires rehearsal, Katie Poindexter demonstrates her vocal abilities. • Flexibility is a very important factor in the dance classes. t Angelaires is a group of promising singers mcluding senror Ted Denious and junior Brandon Shaffer.

" The key to a good performance is a large audience," answered John Van Epps. This gives the actors or actresses and singers good feedback on their performance and makes them feel good. "A Murder is Announced" had about 450 in attendance. "It was excellent," said Genet Erickson "for being set on a ministage." The attendance helped the participants put on a great show. At the annual talent show, Angel Antics, there were some 1400 in attendance. Overall, the show went well except for the microphone going out on a few acts. The concert choir also participated in performances. They joined the jazz choir, the Angelaires, at performances including the fall concert and a performance at the Houston Fine Arts Center. The Angelaires also performed at the Phipps mansion and at the Anaconda Towers downtown. Good attendance at all performances helped the participants give it their all. • In the fall play these three actresses, Mary Archibold, Jenny Bowes and Jacquie Tannenbaum, helped to solve a murder in "A Murder is Announced." 4 for a special holiday concert, the Angelaires performed at Phipps mans1on. 27 �CO CERT BA D.

East- Manua l st ud ents put their hands u p and shout. Dances are a lot of fun but what do you do if you don't have a date or someone you really want to ask? A solution which has become more and more popular is to go with someone as friends. This has a lot of advantages. One is the opportunity to go to dinner and the dance. A lot of people feel it is even more fun than going o n an actual date because y u are spared a lot of the ressure and tension that ormalities of dating cause enior Robert McGrego said "Going to the dance as friends provides a ore relaxed atmospher which lets the couple be ore open to each other and become better friend s. FOR T Besides, it's the nex t best thing if you d on ' t have a date." Anothe r advantage to going as fri nds is that you can dance and talk with lots of peo ple instead of being com pletely committed to yo ur date. On the other side of the coin, when you go as friends you miss the roman ce of a real date that can sometimes be the best pa rt of dances, especially sweetheart a nd homecomi ng. Sophomore Lisa Schr iber said "You miss out on the scrump when you go as friends." There are both advantages and disadvantages to going as friends but it is an option.

The subject of the controversy is a pipe organ which has cost no money to acquire but will cost thousands of dollars to install . Hopefully the organ will be installed next fall and its use can then be rented to outside groups. Another exciting idea is to have silent movies on the weekends with pipe organ accompaniment. Junior thespian Kelly Evans said , " This is going to be a chance for East to get some recognition and will pay off." Juniors John Longbrake and Gene Steele, both members of the band , said , " The pipe organ is a waste of money that should be spent on more important things."

WILL POWER John Alston, who spoke at an all-school assembly early this year, was one of the most entertaining speakers East High has had. He dressed like a teenager and spoke m a manner that was easy to relate to . Although Mr. Alston started his speech in a purely hystencal tone, he touched on heavy subjects such as drugs, family and school with only a bit of humor. Almost every student enjoyed him and he certainly got everyone's attention. One of the topics he spent a great deal of time on dealt with how most young Americans take for granted the wonderful country we live in and the opportunities we are given. He spoke of visitmg foreign lands and seeing the suffenng that goes on in most places of the world . He conveyed a message to the faculty and the students alike that we are the most fortunate people in the world and we must learn to appreciate it. At the same time he made the entire school smile and laugh at the world and its ironies. 33 �The state champ1ons of the Bicentenmal Const1tut1on Compet1t1on.

Jay Shore, Pascal W1lh AND JUSTICE FOR ALL In the past few years American students have been told that they have no knowledge of their country's heritage. In this past year, however, one of Sheila Feeney's AP American history classes proved the statistics wrong. The year 1987 marked the begtnntng of an annual competition, the National Bicentennial Competition tn which students from different schools compete in Washington against representative groups from 0ther states 1n the country. The East students who won the state championship and this great honor feel that it is an important and advantageous event in their 34 high school careers. "I think 1t is important that the youth of today are aware of the nation's hentage and how our remarkable government was established and upheld over the changing t1mes." senior team member Dara Canada said about students' involvement in this competition. Although the students are hopeful of their placement tn the upcoming competition, they feel they are lucky JUSt to participate. Rocking chairs usually conjure up images of Granny doing neealepoint, but thanks to Mr. Van Epps and the drama club, the rocking chair has taken a new meaning. As a fund-rats· er for the installation of the new Aladdtn organ, the "Rock-a-thon" creatively involved many organizations Each participating group had a chance to raise money for itself, although a large portion of the money went to the organ. What is a Rock-a-thon? First, students had to get pledges, then on December 12, they gathered in the auditorium along with their rock1ng chairs and rocked for ten hours. The participants were allowed radios with headphones, books, gossip, homework, games, and whatever else could occupy them while "rocking the night away." �DESTINATION U.S.A. Students may have seen number 72, Randolf Marstaller, on the sidelines at a football game, at practice, or wearing h1s varsity jersey around school; he might have looked just like any other varsity football player. Randolf came to the U.S. from Bremen, Germany, with the Rotary Exchange program. "It was just a dream" to live here for a year and play football, which he watched on TV in Germany. When he first began, he had no idea how to play, but gradually, with help from Coach Tarver, he caught on and tested his new skills in a varsity game. Playing football also helped Randolf make friends during those first few weeks. His teammates were friendly, and besides, "You meet one, and they mtroduce you to other people ... " His own reasons for learning to play football are simple. "I never heard of an exchange student who played football before . . . I just wanted to try it." He adds, "I won't forget that in my whole life!" I In h1s computer class. Randolph Marstaller gets help from h1s ne1ghbor. As the end of July neared, an adolescent dream took a nose dive The Colorado legislature banned the sale of 3.2 beer and wine coolers to minors in hopes of cutting the number of alcohol-related car accidents where a teenager is one of those involved. At the end of 1987, the lawmakers turned out to be correct- the number of fatal car crashes had dropped. However, tbe new law does not stop those who really want to dnnk. "I have been able to buy beer since I was a freshman," one student boasted. Creative avoidances of the law have included tbe increased use of false I. D., the use of older looking friends to buy, and even some of the more daring brew their own at home.

WHEN THE HEAT IS ON FALLING INTO THE GAP Enjoying a break from class, students enjoy the fire drill while administrators discuss safety concerns . Many students sat in anticipation of the long awaited fire drill. Drills, while an important element of student survival, give many a chance to stretch their legs and take a well deserved break from their daily tasks. However, many of the key figures in the school administration and fire safety were concerned that students took the drills a little too flghtly . One fire official was heard saying "Lotsa' people would have died in there today." Perhaps the short trip to Gyro's place is a fun break in the day, but we can't afford to sacrifice the safety of the Angels on the fourth floor who can't get out fast enough . So please, when you hear that awful alarm, get out fast . Student drivers were upset w1th the closmg of the west exit . 36 What is going on with the parking lots? Where does our money go that we spend on parking permits? Some problems of lot conditions include large holes, useless speedbumps, and excessive glass throughout the lot. Theft and vandalism have occurred, leaving many students unsure about the safety of their cars. Revenues from sales of parking permit stickers has led to some reparations and some clean up, but not nearly enough. Although , there are problems with crime, the watchmen do their best. �EXERCISE YOUR OPTIONS A good cheap ice cream cone cools off sophomore Carl Whittington and Mek1da Hays. CHILLING OUT As always, the student council held several ice cream socials where ice cream was either given free or sold to students at a very minimal fee. The variety of flavors varied each time but students could always count on the old favorites, vanilla and chocolate, being available. Students enjoyed both the ice cream and the social atmosphere it created. One student said, "I think this activity really brought the students of East closer together." Another student complained that the ice cream had a tendency to melt quickly in the sun on the Esplanade. All in all, however, everyone agreed that ice cream on the esplanade was a lot of fun. Assistance is given to V1ctor Santana by nurse Emma Jackson at the controversial new health clinic. As concern for the welfare of students grew, experimental health clinics were installed at Lincoln and East. The controversial clinics provided basic services, including athletic physicals, prescriptions for medication, and counseling for drug and alcohol abuse, to any student who desired it. Because of the potential that the clinic had for the distribution of birth control, many conservative fact1ons worked to block the progress of the program. The Denver Archdiocese spoke out against the program, saying that sexual advice belonged in the home. But students felt quite differently. "Confidentiality is the key," said sophomore Charlie Amter. "A lot of people's relationships with their parents are not good." Many students saw the school as pivotal place where kids could learn about sex and birth control and they saw the new clinic as a place for this education. "Counseling and birth control are needed together," sophomore Gina Cline energitcally stated. But not all students saw birth control as a valid issue for schools to address. "Birth control will promote promiscuity," said sophomore Brian Turner, "and it is good that the clinic does not have birth control." 37 �FAREWELL TO ALL On Christmas day, 1987, a special friend of ours, an 18 year old exchange student from Barcelona, Spain, was killed in a car accident on his way back to Colorado from Utah. Tony arrived just four months ago, but with his outgoing personality, it was time enough to get to know him and like him. The first thing we not1ced when we met him was that he was a charismatic person. As we got to know him better, we realized he had other good qualities, such as an adventurous spirit, and a cunous nature. which encouraged h1m to come to the U.S. He liked people and enjoyed going to parties, so girls liked him a lot. But he was more than that, Tony was also a good student and an outstanding sportsman. In Spain he participated on the under 18 Olympic ski team and might have gone to the Olympic games. The fact that he died so unexpectedly deeply saddens us. None of us will ever forget Tony. ~a.sc.C\\ Kyri C\. }Jtr{(1-t~rt~~ ~ k-<v- ~ ~... ~c-<"\ t(f ~? fd11~ H1s fnends find 1t hard to forget Tony Serra's outgoing personality and enthus1asm for hie.

Five hundred billion dollars evaporated into thin air: over a third of the losses were from private investors, many of them planning to spend the1r carefully invested dollars on Junior's college education. Students as well as the1r parents lost heavily on Black Monday. Although few students will be left out of the college scene because of losses on the stock market. money m some families was tight.

A day of shopp1ng could be topped off with 10,000,000,000 sweaters or 9,987,200 Lincoln Continentals, or perhaps onethird of the budget deficit. �PAYING FOR SUCCESS Throughout the h1story of the advanced placement programs, students have had the special privilege of purchasing their own textbooks. Although the average cost of a text averages thirty dollars, those students who cannot afford the cost are asSisted m their purchasing by the school. According to Mr. Strodtman, the individual student is actually the one who gains. The school does pay for the end of the year exam, which costs up to sixty dollars. An added bonus is the fact that the student owns the text after the completion of the course and can do whatever he wants with the book when he IS done. Often, a student will take an A.P. exam in a field of study that he is Interested in studying in college, and the old textbook can serve as a reference guide. Although the purchase of a text may seem a burden, the value of the education of an A.P. class is worth the cost. Havtng to purchase books 1s hard on a student's budget as semor Shannon Sm1th shells out th1rty dollars to Judy Ac1erno. FOOD FOR THOUGHT Many students take our well-polished building for granted, not knowing the tremendous efforts that go into cleaning and maintenance every day. Our professional staff of custodians are appreciated by all. ' • Culinary w1zzards Florence Johnson. Ttna Holcomb. Jenme Sacca. Corratne Lopez, Jean Stnbhng. Cleola Wh1temon.

Through the efforts of our skilled lunchroom staff, quality, low-cost lunches are provided for everyone's dining pleasure. Contrary to popular rumor, a lunchroom meal will not kill you. New requirements for graduation are that each student must eat in the lunchroom at least once a year. 39 �TICKET TO THE SKY In 1924, when East High opened, the tower was an important social spot. For various reasons sometime between 1930 and 1945, the tower was closed and remained empty until November when Student Council cleaned out the dusty, room and prepared it for a special "Dinner in the Tower" raffle. Four lucky winners of dinner for two were drawn . Elizabeth Bauer, Angela Talley, Mrs. Sarah Hite and Pamela Strickland were the chosen ones, and they each brought dates. When the guests arrived, Student Council greeted them at the front door with corsages for the ladies and boutonnieres for the gents. Footers restaurant catered the dinner. "The view from the top was truly spectacular" said one guest, "and getting to listen to Whitney Houston while we ate simply topped the evening off." PAINT THE TOWN RED The graflttled pumphouse stands as a monument to the semor class . 40 The image that greeted students daily in the parking lot was a colorfully decorated pump house. Many groups find the house a perfect media for their personal opinions and feelings. Even when the school insisted on covering their creative images, the late-night artists kept at their mission of decorating the house in truly unique ways. Almost every team found some sort of representation in the walls' art, and even some other schools found their way onto the house. However, the administration kept ins1sting on covering students' creativity with basic red paint. The latenight artists persisted, though, and the poor pump house spent few weeks free from its characteristic art. Everything from Angels to beer showed up, including the artists' names and personal slogans. The pump house was a creative and colorful hello for students swinging into the parking lot every morning. �YOU WANT IT WHEN?! One of the greatest hassles of a senior besides completing college applications. is the chore of getting his senior pictures taken. The first step in accomplishing this task is to choose a photog- rapher. Then one must make an appointment, get the pictures taken, and wait an average of four weeks to receive the proofs. The whole ordeal isn't usually completed until eight weeks after its beginning. Not only does this procedure take a lot of time, but it also takes a lot of money. Packages offered by the photographer start at around sixty dollars and may reach two hundred. For the first time, this year Anderson Studios offered seniors a cheap deal to get their pictures taken. For just ten dollars, a student could get his picture in the yearbook, and for as little as fifty, he could get a set of pictures for which other photographers might charge over one hundred dollars. STAFF ''WELL DONE" On a frantiC yearbook deadline, Jon Ashton and Phil Meschia wor.k diligently as a f1re alarm goes off In-school senior pictures provided sen1ors like Kevin Rollerson w1th an easy way out from having to go to a stud1o. PLEASE PASS THE PUMPKINS On the Friday before Halloween, student council sponsored a pumpkin-carving contest to get students in the Halloween mood. Gloomy and cheerful pumpkin masterpieces alike graced the esplanade to be judged. Another spirited invention of student council was successfully completed. Proud of their "works of art," Antonio Aiello and Steve Bruner guard the pumpk1ns . The variety of truly bizarre happenings does not stop at East, especially when the Angelus staff is involved. On one of those dreaded deadline n1ghts, a select few staff members experienced a fire alarm at 10:15 p.m. The amount of dedication in the hearts of the few who stay late on deadline nights is amazing. As a staff of six worked feverislily to complete a deadline, the empty halls echoed with that grating, rasping blast of the fire alarm. Looking up in dismay from their work, the "Late Night with Jan Anderson" crew was surprised. but none of those dedicated people made one move toward the door. Evidently, one of the janitors set the thing off, and the Angelus staff was 1n little danger of dying of smoke inhalation. Very infrequently does a yearbook staff member find such a strange interruption on a deadline night. Lucky for them (and the entire school), the blaring alarm was false. 41 �SCHOOL GETS FACE LIFT WE BID FAREWELL Unfortunately this year . the senior class had to btd farewell to a popular tradttion Because of the new drinking age law that was enforced August 1, 1987, the after graduation party at Unton Station was dtscontinued this year. Instead, the P.T.S.A. sponsored an after prom party. It gave the students a chance to get informal and have fun without getting drunk and posstbly into trouble . Door pnzes were given away, food was provtded, movtes , and even more dancmg "It was loads of fun," senior Kelly Barron sa1d wtth much enthusiasm .

The most significant part of East that was changed was the transformation of a few classrooms to a new counseling offtce and a health cllntc . The health clinic ts a new tdea here at East It will mclude phystcats for athletes, drug and alcohol abuse counseling, and more comprehensive health care for all students. The new counseling office ts more spactous than the prevtous two. Construction began tn October and was not completed until the end of February.

Other parts of the butldmg that were reconstructed were the lunch· room and the old counseling offtce. �Showmg her sp~rit for the class of '88 . sentor Ltz Warren fashtons the new t·sh1rts .

The busy schedule of local trips IS highlighted by five days on the Yampa R1ver as well as the famous Copper Canyon, Mex1co, trrp over spnng break.

Enthused students l1sten on whtle Don Bobb explatns the wonders of the world SPORTING SPIRIT The sen1or class student council introduced a new idea to the school 1n a way to make money and raise class spirit. T-shirts were printed that stated all the names of the graduating seniors printed over a big red "88". Some students were surprised to not find the1r names on the t-shirt. "I had a kid come up to me and tell me that his name wasn't on the sh1rt." senior council member Jon Ashton recalled. "I checked to see if there was a mistake, and there was. But student council hadn't made the mistake. The k1d had been reclassified as a JUnior and didn't know it until then. I sure didn't tell him!" Over 250 T-shirts were sold, prov1d1ng a $3 .50 per sh1rt profit for the senior class. The money was used for the senior prom. 43 �POP SUCCESS • First year Latm students Mike Sawyer and Rachel Byrne discuss thear lesson wath Mr. Thalhofer CLASSICS RENEWED Why would students study a dead language? Whatever the reason, a new Latin class was reinstated th1s year. The original Latin class was removed due to a lack of interest. Ironically, right after it was removed, there was a high demand to bring the class back. But only after the request of a new teacher, Mr. Thalhofer. was the class reinstated. Mr. Thalhofer questioned his class as to why they were interested m taking Latin. The majority said they took the class because of parental recommendations. Others sought to improve SAT verbal scores. A select few saw Latin as a requirement for legal and medical stud1es. All of 44 these Interests combined to give a class size of twenty-five. The new Latin class was designed by Mr. Thalhofer, to teach both language and culture. Mr. Thalhofer said, "I try to give a total overview of life during B.C. times." The students studied such things as Roman dress. literature, myth and Gregorian chants. In this way, a total understanding and appreciation of anc1ent times was created. Latin may not be a language heard in a bus stop every day, but at East. it is helping students understand ancient culture as well as modern languages. • Between classes, junaor Jay Short makes the "choace of a new generation." Have you ever died of thirst in the middle of class? Well, if you had this feeling during the past year, a quick stop at the local Pepsi or Coke machines in the front hall could have quenched your thirst. These pop machines may have appeared as new editions, but in fact they were available for student use last year in the lunchroom. Having the machine there caused a major problem for the student council, which managed and maintained the unprofitable machines. It was against federal law for the machines to be in use during lunch periods because they competed with the federally funded food program. Located in the back hall, the lunchroom was too far out of the way for most students to have time to stop there between classes. Council requested that the machines be moved to the front hall to give students easier access to them during passing periods, the only legal time during which students could use them. The move increased profits and pleased thnsty students. �OUR AMIGOS After making friends with two senior football players, Mark Jackson and Ricky Nattiel of the Denver Broncos attended an Angel football game. Coach Larry Tarver arranged a session where the Angels got to meet the Broncos, and many players met their idols. At the meeting of the two football powers, seniors Trent Orendorf and Terrence Miles got a chance to talk one-on-one with two top Broncs, Jackson and Nattiel. The pairs exchanged football stories and advice, as well as phone numbers. A short while later, Miles and Orendorf called their new friends to tell them about an upcoming Angel gridiron matchup. Much to the surprise of many fans at All City Stadium, Jackson and Nattiel, two of the "Three Amigos," attended the game to cheer on the Angel football team. It was a real thrill for the fans to see those familiar faces. Because of the presence of the NFL's greatest football team here, it is a thrill for any person, especially for a Sunday afternoon couch surfer, to meet one of the Broncos on a personal basis. However, when an Angel who gets out on the field and bangs his head into our rivals in the fall gets to meet one of the pros, the thrill is even greater. Orendorf and Miles were glad to have met two of the "Three Amigos." 2:36 seems hours away as Lance McDonald wa1ts for school to get out. • Students fmd the pros, Jackson and Nathel of the Broncos more enter· ta1mng than the game 1tself. ADDING TO THE PAIN -- A big change took place this year regarding the length of the school day. Eleven minutes were added to each day, making the beginnmg of the day at 7:40 and the end of 2:36. The longer day was caused by the need for teacher inserv1ces. Educational officials felt teachers needed to learn new teaching tactics and ideas. Teachers attended in-ser' vices during six afternoons, getting ideas for improving teaching techniques. Students took these six afternoons off. The eleven minutes were added each day to make up the t1me lost in providing for the In-service half-days. Although students loved the early dismissal, some teachers felt the learners needed more time at school, rather than the educators. One teacher stated, "I enjoyed the time to organize my plans, but the students are the ones who need more time in school." Another teacher against the new program said, "I can't stand these interruptions in the day and split between my classes: I spend the whole afternoon grading papers anyway." 45 �- Mil IT'S A GREAT PLACE TO START " It's a great way to learn ... " said JUnior ROTC member , Tim Schwartz 1n reference to East 's Reserve Officer Training Corps program . ROTC has been a very valuable program for many of East 's students , teaching them a variety of subjects rang1ng from first aid and map readmg to math and commun1cat1on skills .

OUT OF ORDER An old friend left the campus area this year. Safeway, a tradition among many students, was closed due to a drop in profits and an increase in the problem of shoplifting. But the boarding up of the reliable source of nourishment left many students, especially underclassmen, high and dry at lunch time. Those patient enough to brave long lines found a substitute for Safeway's bulk food bins in the bean burritos and Slurpees of 7-11. Others worked their way into the hearts of a friend with wheels, and got a lift to McDonald's, and even a brave few returned to the perils of brown-bagging it from home. As the days of the year wore on, many students began to miss their old friend Safeway more and more. Dried up pens, broken pencils, used notebooks could no longer be replaced at the nearby supermarket. Growling stomachs after football practice could no longer find a cheep candy bar and Cragmont root beer. The loss of a dear friend and companion is felt by all, especially those looking for a food bargain. Safeway, we all are going to miss you. In January of 1988 East suffered the lost of an angel; freshman Benjamin (Benjie} Clark was killed suddenly in an automobile accident. Ben had been a member of the soccer team and was involved in his first season of basketball. Ben was an outgoing freshman; often seen bouncing down the halls, smiling and joking with friends and acquaintances. Ben was well-rounded and sociable in addition to his athletic ability. He ran for class secretary early in the year, demonstrating his friendliness. He was always energetic and very comfortable when meeting new people. In Ben's memory, head soccer Coach Ro· land Sturk has established the memorial Benjamin P. Clark award f'lr one outstand· ing freshman soccer player on the teams to come. Ben's energy and confidence were unique and he will not be forgotten. Former East student Ben Clark was tragically killed in a car accident this year. STUDENTS TAKE ACTION! Two years ago, SADD sprouted from peer counseling. Students Against Drunk Driving, organized by Mr. Alan Hodges, is a total student body program aimed at keeping teens who drink from driving drunk. It is important to note that SADD does not intend to dictate morals, and is not against drinking alone, but only stresses the obvious: don't drive drunk or get in the same car with an intoxicated driver. 47 �ANGELS ON THE AIR .... - ~. . ~ In October, two members of the soccer team were invited to be interviewed on KYGB radio station. Seniors John Carranza and Jason Hutchinson gave answers to questions called in to the program. Hutchinson and Carranza participated on the program to try and spread more knowlege of the game. . ·:;:r_ ~ -·! ; Coach Roland Sturk said that "the radio showed that soccer is gaining notoriety and it is even better that it was East's team who did the honors." Hutchinson and Carranza were nervous on the beginning of their experience on the other end of the radio, but the pair were glad they did it. Discussing the answer to a caller's quest1on. sen1ors John Carranza and Jason Hutch1nson received the chance to be on the KYBG high school sports talk rad1o for D.P.S. soccer. HOMECOMING BOUND • 48 Preparing for a great homecoming includes decorating a car for juniors Cari Overton and D1ya Bailey. Shortly before the homecoming game, twenty-five students assembled at East to decorate their cars in the spirit of the day. The fans used streamers, balloons and shaving cream. Many of the cars had cans tied to the bumpers to ensure that spectators would not1ce them as they drove to the stadium. The caravan proceeded to the game, honking all the way. Some onlookers stared oddly at the festive group while others waved back. The game score disappointed all students, but did not damper the spirits of the cheerful crowd, for they knew our team would always be the best. �OVERHEARD "We're selling our yearbooks for $30.00 because they spent too much money last year and we don't have any base for this year."

ACTIVITIES 53 �LARS AND FRIENDS ent contributions "We had good quality work - it was an honor to be published in Serendipity." According to co-sponsor of Serendipity, Jim Hobbs, the creative arts publication was an excellent forum for students to present their creative and artistic abilities. The magazine, sponsored by Jim Hobbs and David Rivera , contained poetry, short stories, artwork and photography from a varied group of students. However, the lack of funds made only one publication possible this year rather than the two they had hoped for. According to Mr. Rivera, "There was no shortage of talented writers, but we did have a problem with funding." As in the past two years, Serendipity was submitted to a national literary magazine contest. It was recognized two years ago by the contest, and they hope that this year's entry will have similar success, though they won't know until next year. All in all, Serendipity gave students the chance to express themselves in a way the whole school could enjoy. Editing to perfection is the key to success for junior Eric Hanson and senior Allie Ramsey. • Complete confusion strikes senior Andrea Davis and Serendipity co-sponsor, Dr. Hobbs. • This poster tells it all, as jumor Mark Schneider and senior liz Cook work diligently to hang it. ~ SERE DIPITY �• Informing students of Serendip1ty's need for submissions is the job for Jennifer Rombach and Mark Schneider. • Presenting creative ideas is an integral part of Serendipity for senior Lisa Gonzalez.

Under the direction of Judy Schwartz and Richard Nelson, the team learned to create, memorize, and perform speeches based on drama, poetry, and humor. The annual Wolcott/Woodbury competition took place in the spring. The Wolcott competition measured a student's ability in oral reading on an unfamiliar subject. Memorization was the key to the Woodbury competition where participants presented a speech based on politics or history, written by someone else. The Wolcott/Woodbury contests are competitive as they are the most difficult speech events of the year. Both contests involved hard work and preparation by the members of the speech team, who took their efforts seriously and with pride.

ADING TO SUCCESS john and katy, head up 87-88 The years have come and gone and all that remains are the memories. In retrospect, the diversity, the spirit, and the excellence of East's student body and faculty will forever be inscribed in my mind. I remember back to my freshman year -one of shock and wonder, for I was not prepared for the realities of high school. Overwhelmed by my sophomore year, I dragged through early morning help sessions and late afternoon soccer practices. As I looked toward the homestretch of high school, the junior year tripped me up with college testing and more homework!! And now, as a senior, the realization that all good things must come to an end has finally hit home. Soon we will go our separate ways and many of the friendships we have made will be severed. If I could ask one thing from the student body, I would ask that everyone grasp what East has to offer; don't let it slip through your fingers. For although one never plans to fail, one fails to plan, and before you know it, the senior year will become just another memory and you will wonder where the time has gone. I will always look back at my days at East and be proud that I was an Angel. Thanks Angels . .. 9 I~ (" After a typical winter snowstorm, the tracks tempt Katy and john. /_ ,/- , : .. .... .· v Once again, it's John's duty to save Katy from a fine mess. y; HEADBOY/HEADGIRL �Believe it or not, there is a serious side to Katy and John. The memories I have from my four years at East are endless. Some bad, though the majority good, I've learned from them all. I have become my own person and I have East to thank for that. Because of East's unique qualities, a great sense of pride radiates from everyone in contact with it. From its beautiful architecture, to academics, to sports, to extracurricular activities. I've always been proud to be a member of East's family - a family which is supportive and encouraging. I guess one of the main reasons I've enjoyed my last four years so much is because of my involvement. By participating in various organizations I have learned much more than your basic math or history. I've been introduced to just about every race, creed, and ideal imagined possible, and loved every minute of it. I can't believe this is it. These past four years have gone so quickly. But I won't leave empty handed, I'll have all of my wonderful memories of East High School. Oh well, I guess it's true what they say, "Time flies when you're having fun" Thanks for making time fly!! Katy and john finally come out of the closet. JOHN AND KA TY 63 �0 pt,f The Crucible is of such interest to sophomore Sunshine Martin that she takes time after class to read it . ��ne of the hardest parts of senior year and graduation for many seniors is the inevitable separation of good friends. Often these friendships were hard-won or have lasted from childhood, and leaving them behind can be difficult. Although it is possible to remain good friends for a lifetime, more often seniors leave high school and find themse~ves with many new friends and without time to write or visit old ones. Other seniors discover they just don't have anything in common with their high school pals anymore because of the experiences they've had which affected them differently. Realizing that some of this is bound to happen after graduation, seniors tend to value their friendships more, and spend most of their free time with their closest buddies.

Paula Parrish Senior year often means "celebration". Since it is their last year in high school, seniors want to "live it up"; They find many interesting ways of doing this. One obviously is their parties. Seniors are known for throwing good parties, and many parties, and seem to have a sixth sense for knowing where to find a party. Following many weekend parties throughout the year, seniors enjoy the special parties after prom, graduation, and checkout (the beach party). Another way that seniors make the most of their last year is by getting involved. Whether in clubs, sports, drama, or music, seniors may join something the've never tried before, or exert extra effort in something they already know.

During the school year there are a variety of extra-curricular activities to take part in. Many of these activities range from after school sports such as football, volleyball, soccer and basketball to clubs such as the United Nations, Black Student Alliance, and National Honor Society to specialized practices for drama, band, choir and dance performances. For those students who participate in extra-curricular activities, many do not get home until 5:30 or 6:00 in the evening. And for those who live in southeast Denver, those hours run even later into the night. But still, many of these students manage to keep up with their homework, ready to turn it in the next day - even if it means staying up into the "late night" hours to get it all finished. Surprisingly, these "up early, late night" rituals soon become a habit. As the years go on, our bodies learn to adjust to the constant "on the go" nature of today's lifestyles. At the ice-cream social , sponsored by the student council, one cone is not enough for junior Stacy Klapper. josh BeBout Andy Beltz Craig Benjamin "My extra-curricular activities eat up all my free time and contribute to my declining grade point average." -Sheila Proctor"Extra-curricular activities are hard on the social life and grades because of the demands of the sport and the time spent on the field." -Tracy Stockton"You have no free time.

Homework seems to pile up at a non-stop pace. Conscientious stud nts average up to two to three hours of homework a night. Students who are concerned about their future in terms of college selection cannot allow themselves to let their grades drop at any time during the course of the four years of high school. With college less than a year away, juniors need to concentrate more than in any of the previous two years or the final year upcoming. Juniors who will graduate in 1989 have even more to contend with as a new policy states that students are not allowed any excused periods. This will also serve to increase their homework workload. Seniors of '89 will take no less than seven classes and a lunch period while the seniors of '88 only take the number of classes they want or need in order to graduate. For this year's juniors, excused periods at the beginning or the end of the day allowed students more time to work on homework . With new policies and higher standards, juniors will be forced to spend more time on their homework.

We are told exactly what to do and when . We are told over and over how important it is to start collecting information NOW. Don't wait until second semester senior year. Well, all of this is unfortunately true. Selecting a college is a long and difficult process, and the earlier one starts, the better the shape he's in. Although the actual IVY League schools are few in number, there are many schools that can be generically termed "Ivy's." Basically, the Ivy's are the toughest, most elite schools in the nation. Many students have absolutely no interest in attending an Ivy League school. They feel the schools are too selective, too competitive, and too exclusive. One of the reasons for this is that most of the Ivy's are in the east, and here in Colorado, there seems to be a devout love for the west. "Why travel 2500 miles to boonville New Hampshire or Connecticut to freeze your toosh off with a bunch of yuppies?" exclaimed one junior at East.

You see those people who go out on dates and they don ' t even know each other . There are a few students in high school who do establish solid relationships that last a long time. However, most people will date someone for a few months, break up with them and date ... their best friend. The point is most teenagers like diversity and become interested in any new face. It gets boring to hear the same voice on the phone, to have the same conversation over and over and to do the same thing every weekend. It's amusing to watch this go on between two or three people when ., you're an outsider. Gradually, the person who has become uninterested will enter a class, or walk up to a group and immediately search for anyone to talk to, desparately seeking any escape route to avoid facing the person that he or she is supposedly dating. After a few days, the broken hearted one in the relationship will be seen moping around the halls as though his/her life was over. The one who caused the break up can usually be found flirting with someone else of the opposite sex, without a care or regret in the world. Showing they know how to beat " The Dating Game", juniors Tara Stubbs and Brandon Shaffer clearly show their affections.

A student's most popular choice would be to go to the movies with his friends. Another student may cut loose and go to a Friday night party with pulsating, blaring rock and roll filling a house. After a tiresome day of tests, papers and mind-boggling class s, many students simply want to crash in their beds, curl up and never see another day like the last one. Television is hard to catch during prime time, due to homework, so some stay up until 11 :30, waiting for the "Late Night With David Letterman" show. There are some students known as "night owls" who live for the evenings. During the darkest hours of the night, these students become mischevious and search for new ideas for fun . It's those "night owls" that tee-pee their friends houses, throw parties, an inspiration for the rest of East's less "active" students, until they get caught. At that point, these "night owls" suddenly turn into permanent fixtures of their own homes, grounded for what seems an eternity. Strange how a little fun can end up in a pile of trouble.

Though the summer is only three months long, it is enough time to accomplish many things. For juniors, the summer means a break from reality. As most students would agree, junior year is the hardest of all. The students face college entrance exams, such as the ACT and the SAT, and students that take advanced placement classes face the AP exam in May. These are all essential for getting into college. It's not hard to see why juniors long for these short but long-awaited months. The summer sets forth a life full of memories that they can talk about forever with their friends when they return to school as seniors. Memories of road trips to far away states with family or with their friends, summer romances with that special someone they've always dreamed about, parties that have left a long lasting impression, one that could never happen during the school year. As the summer ends "summertime blues" hit. Though it may be their last year, the junior summer is one summer they'll never forget. Though school has just started, junior Amy Wagner stays in her summer spirit, longing for afternoons at the pool.

"Me first Most people put themselves in front of other , people. There is less sharing and love, and benevolence. Everyone only looks after their own welfare." -Jeff Timmons"A new age" -Katie Anstett- "Hardly! The eighties is the decade of patriotism and greed." -Erik Hansen- "The eighties is a time of realizing people's rights suc h as women's and black rights." -Petra Kelly- AS THE 80'S END Th e 60 's was a t ime of rebellion , the 70 's a time of peace. What then chara cterizes the 80 's? Some say the 80's are a time of upward mobility, a time in which lifestyles have improved immensely. People are overindulged in luxuries: fine clothes, cars, and expensive homes. People are once again eating in fine restaurants, whereas in the 60's and 70's people ate health food on picnics. The 80's have been much less socially active. Everyone seems to be far more concerned with their private lives. They have been a time of optimism , though, with a fatherly figure in the white house telling us that everything is going to be all right. AIDS has come into existence in the 80's. The swinging 60's and the free love of the 70's has become somewhat passe. Romance is now in and casual sex is going out. "Condom" used to be a dirty word; they are now dispensed publicly. "No more ' Leave it to Beaver' - the 80's are trying times for teenagers." says junior Dan Crane. The 80's could be thought of as the SO's, but not in black and white. Basically, we are enjoying the same types of high school experiences that our parents did, only in color. What characterizes the 80's? It is a time of chivalry and femininity as demonstrated by juniors Becky Hanratty and Chad Zeman. Karna Samson B.).

Joe, a student, drives slowly down the street, looking for traces of a party: an empty can or bottle, an East Angels bumper sticker or even the slightest trace of a crowd in front of a window. "Obviously," he thought, "this isn't a big bash, or people would be out in the middle of the street with the police trying to break up the crowd in response to all the "disturbing the peace" calls phoned in by neighbors. No, this must have been a small get together of a couple of upperclassmen and they just don't want the lowerclassmen ruining everything, or maybe even an "invite only" party; wouldn't that have been humiliating!" All Joe had was an address, actually a list of possible bashes, all of which had failed so far. Does this sound the least bit familiar?? Finally, he recognized a friend's car in front of the house where the bash was spotted earlier. He slowly parked his car and walked toward the intensely loud Grateful Dead music that was playing in the house. Joe was contemplating whether he should even try to get in; if they charged money, that blew his whole night cause he had none, but if he knew the host, things could be lookin' bright. Well, as it turned out, he did know the host and he was let in free, thankfully. Joe walked into the party, and went straight for the kitchen where he grabbed a cold pepsi, and sat down to where a group of his friends were playing a wild game of quarters. Though he could not understand why, Joe was unsuccessful, and he finally gave up. After a couple of hours and about five pepsis, his sugar and caffeine content went straight to his head. Feeling a little deprived in both luck and love, Joe got back in his car and headed for home. 2:36 pm Friday after school, JUniors Luke Beatty and Ben Wood question the gang about what to do and what everyone else would be doing. stereotyped party What is your first thought as you enter a big bash?

There are many differences between sophomore year and freshman year. The biggest is probably that sophomores know the school and its people. As Liz Washburn put it, "In your sophomore year, you feel like you're closer to your surroundings and a bigger part of the school." Sophomores know what kind of activities are available, the teachers who sponsor them, and consequently, get more involved. 1 18 Another big change is the increase in the amount of homework and difficulty of classes. Many sophomores experience a full load with classes like chemistry, ancient history and algebra. Students get better acquainted with lower grades and harder work. Throughout this year, more and more get driver's licenses. Students expand their usual lunch places from 7-11, Arbys and Rainbow Grocery to places like McDonalds, Pizza Express or even home. Although this second year is filled with change, it can be one of the best of the four.

Becaus East and Manual are considered a complex, students at East can take classes at Manual and vice versa. This opportunity gives students from both schools an abundant amount of course and teacher selection . The East/ Manual complex is the only one of its kind in Denver. "The complex effectively offers students two schools worth of teachers to choose from," said senior Jon Ashton . Another student said, "It's interesting that a larger number of students from Manual take classes at East than East students taking classes at Manual. " Students can either take periods one and two in the morning or seventh and eighth in the afternoon at the other school. Students who participate in the complex must take classes at their home school during periods three through six in order to allow time for administrative needs and lunch. Any student who has taken advantage of the complex has had the opportunity to experience the diversity existing in two very different schools in the same school system .

Long straight hair for girls was also a part of the comfortable look as many chose to wear their long hair pulled back with barettes or just hanging loose. Braids and braiding also emerged as a popular hair style. L.L. Bean shoes also showed up on the feet of th style cons ious student. These brown, leather shoes were great for doing just about anything. Of course, everyone loved sweaters. Any pattern, any shape, any style: a sweater was always fashionable.

Students return from a long, relaxing summer after completing the freshman year . Although their first year is tough, it is more or less just preparation for the rest of high school. The work load of sophomores steadily piles on to the unsuspecting student with classes such as chemistry and ancient history. Concepts that students learned during their freshman year are now expected in every day use. In most cases, they are also faced with their first resear c h paper and semester projects. Students begin to realize the need for good study skills and hard work . Sophomore year also begins to prepare students for the all-important junior year . They begin to think about college level classes. With heavier work loads, sophomores begin to relate to the importance of school. While students expand their horizons by looking into specialized fields, such as drafting, ceramics and mythology, they gain more awareness of possible career choices. Although not always fun , sophomores soon find that homework and advance planning will pay off. For sophomore Alecia Tate, studying in class will pay off as she works to attain her future goals. 126 SOPHOMORE - HOMEWORK �l..o.lh :st kind r:ot mu:= ic s:;. 45~~ r··=~~=l< f::::::::Zj he.:s'."::l met.:st ~~ ::: . t::.2~..: punk .-···n ·::2UJ ~s D • o:other· 5. 1 7=-= top 40 r::::l 5. 1 7~·: L.:.J c o:o u rot r·•::1 5 . 17~-~ r·e·;·;;.:,,~ f-:::::::1 5 . u:: ~~ ~ uJ.:s•..Je r·.:sp East has a w id e var ie ty o f stud e nt s.

GETTING AROUND the search for t ransportation Have you ever shown up at a party in a cab because you were too embarrassed to have your mom drive you? Have you ever ridden your bike to school? Have you ever walked onto a school bus with your head hung low? If you have, then you've been a freshman at East High School. Freshmen have various ways of getting around. Some have mopeds and ride them illegally. Some pay upperclassmen to take them to and from school. Some shamefully take the school bus. And some, with their monthly bus passes, take the RTD. Those who have no other alternative, walk. Transportation is always a big problem for underclassmen, especially freshmen . Freshmen must be sneaky and sly, yet polite, in the way they find rides.

On the negative side, younger siblings must "follow in their older brother or sister's footsteps." Teachers may form opinions based on the interaction of older siblings. Also, the younger siblings seldom get away with anything because big brother or big sister is always watching. All in all, however, freshmen who have older siblings at East have an advantage.

Meeting upp rclassmen can be a great experience as well as frightening. Initiation is the word freshmen use quite often in their vocabularies. Joining an athletic team can be a form of initiation . It ranges from being thrown in a pool of ice cold water or being tied to a street sign. Initiation is an experience that is hard to face or control; freshmen must know the rules of high school and flow with them. Adopt-a-frosh, added this year, is a great experience for freshmen. The principle idea is that a senior takes a freshman out and shows him the ropes to having a good time. By going to upperclassmen's activities and athletic events, freshmen can enter the turmoil of high school on a smoother note. Freshmen usually found the adopt-a-frosh program excellent, providing a more relaxed entrance to high school.

These feelings can be associated with peer pressure, with both negative and positive effects. Some types of pressure include ditching, smoking, drinking, running away, taking drugs. Freshmen, due to their inexperience, find it hard to do what is best for them. Concealing the real person is a negative effect of peer pressure because when the pressure is on, it's oppressive and Joshua Moses Molly Murphy Erin Murray lisa Murrell Shaska Musikka Mary elson Ryan O'Brien Monica Otto April Oram Richard Overby Kristen Overton Susan Overton Michael Papper Sarah Perry Katrina Pinkerton Angel Porter Pam Pressler Ari Radetsky Katherine Ray Deneishia Reese Rickey Rimpson Tracy Rivera Soynini Rivers Demond Robbins 134 FRESHME -DAILY PRESSURES makes it all the harder to take a step forward. Another negative effect is getting into deeper trouble and not saying anything about one's feelings toward the pressure. Peer pressure seems to target everyone, but freshmen may need more assistance. Peer counseling has been established to aid any student with any problems. Positively speaking, students who learn to say "no" will gain the respect of others as well as themselves. Through focus, peer pressure can be handled when students want to. With a full backpack at his side, freshman Daniel Tregembo feels the weight of high school pressure. �Judette Romero Shay-la Romney Reese Roper Elizabeth Rousses Tony Ruiz Sean Ryerson Scott Salge Amy Sanderson Jeff Sanford Jeff Santistevan Ursula Scanlon Anne Schocket Tara Schoep Christy Schweiger Chris Selby Jeff Short lisa Sims Amy Sloan Mady Smallwood Holly Smith Heather Starling Mark Steinman Cordell Stephens Tayiesh Stewart UPPERCLASSMEN " I like them because my brother and cousin are upperclassmen."

YOU ASKED FOR IT firsts for freshmen First dances and first dates are exciting and new when a freshman enters high school. However, whether the dance turns out to be fun or hideous, it will always be an event to remember. First, there are a series of questions to be answered: "How should I pose the invitation?" "Should I buy a corsage?" "Do I introduce myself to her parents?" Then, after the date has been arranged, plans must be made for dinner. Most likely, this will be to Round-the-Corner, a favorite for Morp, or The Broker for homecoming. Even with the music blaring from the gym or front hall, the freshman are too shy to "get into" the dancing. Most awkward is when they arrive at the dance just as it begins, instead of, as most upperclassmen, just as the dance is ending. The first dance and date is something every person will remember for years to come. Like many aspects of freshman year, it is an important part of growing up.

Beginning in the ninth grade, many freshmen come to East knowing no one, but leave after senior year with several friends. For those people who aren't already known by upperclassmen through an older sibling and aren't lucky enough to enter high school with a close group of friends, coming to a new school is challenging and often petrifying. For this reason, freshmen must make an extra effort to create friendships. Once a support network is established, much of freshman apprehension goes away. Classes, clubs, and sports provide excellent opportunities for freshmen to meet new people who share common interests. The diverse student body enables freshmen to choose the type of friends they want to have. Many freshmen travel in groups of three or more as they need a sense of security and support from their friends. It is not rare to see the same group of freshmen eating lunch together every day. Although many of the friendships started during one's first year turn out to be short-lived or false, freshmen will usually form close relationships by the end of their high school career that often last a lifetime. Skateboarding contributes to the friendship between Jesse Lo and Matthew Plungis, giving them a common bond. 138 FRESHME - FRIE DSHIP �Relaxang on the esplanade, freshmen Eric lindstrom and Isaac Nieto try to stay awake for their next class.

While all students needed four years of English before grad uation, some chose an accelerated pace while others preferred the ligh ter workload of non-accel rated classes. Either way, students contin ued on their search for excellenc through required or specialized alternative classes such as creative wr iting, Shakespeare, and drama. In creative writing, st udents took the opportunity to develop a writing voice by creating short stories. Studying the works of Shakespeare was the primary concentration of the Shakespeare class, while the dram a classes read, discussed, and performed various plays. Other English offe rings includ d pro wri in , whic h taught th e short writing form; competitive speech, where advanced techni ques in oral communication were d eveloped; English Development and Practical English where those who required specialized instruction received it.

Get Set! Go! Physical Education, better known as PE or gym, was a class required for two semesters of every high school student's career. This created a burden for those who participated in sports because sports can take up a lot of time. In fact, many athletes contended that the time spent in sports could replace the time needed for required PE classes. The PE classes that were offered were ones such as team activities, lifetime sports, and fitness and conditioning. Fitness was probably the most work, physically. In the other two classes, students mainly played team sports that could be continued any time in life. Also available in PE offerings were gymnastics class, starting with beginner and going up through advanced. Although PE might have been a lot of work for some students, most agreed that the strenuous effort was well worth it. 4 Trying to get on the balance beam between giggles, atalie Powers makes an attempt to perform the first move . • Situps are a vital part of Lorraine Brabo's daily routine.

Getting to know her students, foreign exchange teacher Mme Deschamps enjoys American culture. One of the first teacher exchange programs in Colorado became a reality. While Sharon Calahan, a French teacher here spent the year in France, French native, Anne-Marie Deschamps spent the year in Denver. Madame Deschamps learned about Denver when she was a student at the university in Paris. She said "I read 'On the Road' by j. Kerouac in 1973. I heard about Denver reading that book. I was longing to see the Opera House in Central City where he viewed a performance of Fidelio in 1947." Mme Deschamps felt that the differences were fading between France and America, though the school systems of the two countries were different. Something that she didn't find so different was the nature of the students. In the few spare moments she was able to catch, Madame Deschamps enjoyed swimming, reading, writing, watching television, playing with Mrs. Calahan's cat and drinking American beer.

Their interests included traveling, skiing, and fishing. These interests took place after school, on weekends and during vacation time. As a ski patroller, Mr. Keiser not only skied, but also worked with other skiers. Judging by Mr. Keiser and Mr. Guinn, who also spent the majority of his winter skiing, this weekend pastime was pleasurable for teachers as well as students. Students who went to the mountains might have seen Mr. McGinnis, Mr. Boatright and Mr. Ostrom fishing their favorite lakes or streams.

Ms. Breen and Ms. Feeney travelled to eastern Europe, Ms. Deasy went to Russia and Finland while Mr. Bloomfield and Mrs. Matarrese sponsored a group of students on a tour of Europe.

What do teachers at East High enjoy about teaching? Some have no idea. Others can't wait for 2:36 in the afternoon. Other favorite parts of teaching are the months of June, July and August, vacation time, holidays and, of course, pay day. Many teachers en joy the fact that everyday is different from the day before. It's always a challenge trying to deal with the students' problems and excuses for getting out of homework and class. The thing that almost all teachers enjoy most about teaching is the students. They enjoy helping the students grow and mature through their work. Math teacher Sara Hady said, "I enjoy the challenge of presenting material in a way that students can understand." Teachers like knowing they can make a differ- ence in the students' lives, they like interacting with the students and seeing "lights go on" when a student understands something new. It's a rewarding feeling that makes teaching seem worthwhile. Many teachers enjoy working with the students out of class time. Quite a few teachers at our school coach, referee or just cheer on our athletic teams. Other teachers sponsor clubs and some help with school activities such as chaperoning dances, plays and fund-raisers. Grading papers takes up a lot of the teachers' free time but they are always willing to give their time to make their students feel loved.

On reason for the1r competitiveness and enthusiasm was the sp1rit that revolved around the soccer program. When asked about big crowds turning out to watch the game, sophomore Bnan Turner explained, "It really helps. It makes the game more intensified." However, players felt the big crowds were lack1ng. "Even though we are more successful every year," commented senior goalkeeper Jason Hutchinson, "we get so much less credit from the school than the football team." As a result the players turned to one another for credit and support. "We're like a family, we even argue like a family," added sophomore Graham Harlow. Indeed, soccer is an extremely competitive sport among all schools; this competitiveness grows from the "soccer-hype" found in Denver. Because of this popularity, many students play soccer, and a natural competition for varsity positions results. The squad sacrificed extracurricular activities for daily practice while also giving up a portion of their weekends to play. As long as East maintains its strong junior varsity program, competition promises to keep the varsity athletes at a high level of performance. PULLING IT OFF ones to watch Concentration is a big part of the game for junior Paul Markson. • Making sure he keeps possession of the ball, junior Mark Evans dusts a defender. • A hug between John Carranza and Wilson Rodriguez often celebrates a goal. �t Putting on the speed, senior Chris Sloan steals the ball from Manual's shooter, Brownang Cannon . • A crucial save takes senior Jason Hutchinson to new heights. "The guys are team oriented allowing them to win city for the third year in a row, tying the DPS record from 1977. They're special kids; although a coach doesn't get to be sentimental often, I'm going to miss Travis, John Carranza, and John Massanett. They mean a lot to me" · -Roland Sturk �East's soccer team successfully took the city championship this sea on to make it ours for the third y ar running . This tied a standing DP record from 1977 when TJ did th sam thing. Our team's success was due to strong individual talent and unconditional unity, and proved itself with a 13-2 season record. Most of the team's talent resided in s nior and sophomore players. Some super seniors this year were Travis Rundlet, John Carranza, John Massanet, and Wilson Rodrigues, while outstanding sophomores included Grahm Harlow, Brian Turner, and Jason Bailow. They worked together with the rest of the team to play a contro!led, progressive game . They worked on building from the back to work as a unit team, rather than just running and kicking. Additionally, Wilson Rodrigues' "rocket .feft foot" was a plus for the team, leading him to "be named the Angels' highest scoring player this year. Good coaching by Roland Sturk provided a team-oriented strategy, and he helped the team to work together to meet their goals. It is for this reason that it is impossible to name one exceptional player; everyone helped each other to attain top performances on the field. "I think we had a great season!" said sophomore Brian Turner, "Even though we didn't get too far in the play-offs, we still did really well."

SOCCER 175 �Team spirit sums up th feelings of this year's volleyball team. There was quite a bit of devotion and sacrifice, and perhaps that's why the team had a good season. Led by the team captain Kieran elson, the team had a record of 4-9. "We're a winning team," said Kieran. "We're willing to sacrifice and go that extra mile." Success in volleyball takes a great amount of time. Sophomore Felicia Marin said she spent approximately ten hours a week in volleyball. Although social life and grades were often affected by volleyball, the team felt it was worth it. Another ingredient of success was devotion. According to Felicia, "If you're not devoted, you can't work as a team, and therefore you can't succeed." The emotion and support on the court were evidence that the team was not only devoted to the game, but to each other. This year's team was special to sophomore Elly McCarthy because she noticed what a great sense of devotion and spirit there was. "Everyone can come from all walks of life and become a team, working together. We can all get along great." The players felt that the team had immense potential, and next year could be the best in state. Essentially a combination of talent, devotion, spirit, and sacrifice, the team created a winning combination.

Mental preparation, physical endurance, and the level of competition plus the quality of courts and racquets affect a player. Confidence and concentration are necessary to do well during the game. "If a player gets down on himself and lets his mind wander, there is no way for him to compete positively in a match," according to number one singles player, Brandon Shaffer. The level of competition also influenced a player's performance. "It's simple," said senior Sean Gray, "the better the competition, the better you play." Competition promotes excitement. Weather, the quality of tennis courts, and a player's racquet also add to his performance in a match. "The ideal weather for tennis," thought Matthew McDowell, "is about 77 degrees and overcast with no chance of wind or rain." Good weather and courts give players a good attitude for the game and a quality racquet gives them a real mental advantage. Not only good technique and physical performance, but also mental alertness, confidence, and the level of competition make up a good game. All these factors allowed East to come out on top with two doubles teams and singles player going to state.

Tough competition from Thomas Jefferson, Abraham lincoln, and Manual pushed the swimmers to get their best times. Under the coaching of Renate Schmidt, the team often came out victorious. "Even though we didn't always have the motivation, we always pushed ourselves to do our best," said junior LeeSanne Silverburg. One downfall of the swim team was the lack of their own pool. "We have to go all the way out to Thomas Jefferson every day," complained sophomore Alysia Tate. "It would even be easier going to some place like George Washington to practice." The team had a lot of spirit, even without the support of many fans. Toward the end of the season they began "tapering": swimming in two or more suits, pantyhose, and T -shirts. In order to get everyone psyched for city, coach Renate Schmidt gave each swimmer a card and little gift. Prior to the meet, they shaved their legs, put on motion lotion, and without excess weight and water resistance, they were faster in the water. The swim team lost some talented swimmers at the end of this year including state qualifier senior Lisa Licht. Although only nine swimmers qualified for City A, only two of them were seniors. The Angelfish are excited for next year and hope to get some new swimmers. "We have a lot of potential and spirit," said sophomore Chris Lutz. "Next year should be a great year!"

Good leadership, spirit, and coaching added to the advancement of the team as well. The Angel defensive unit, the "Dawgs", was the strongest part of this year's team. Led by star players, Jon Lyons, Angelo Duncan, John Adams, and Renard Simmons, they put up an intense fight against the competition, coming up on top of the league standings. "We can play anybody defensively," said Mike Sawyer. According to both Fairview and T.J., the "Dawgs" were the hardest-hitting defense they played this year. With quarterback Tim Kulick at the helm, the Angel offense proved to be a diverse and exciting base for East's success. A strong offensive line and intelligent running backs helped to push the Angels to their many victories this season. All-city offensive guard, Mike Sawyer, provided leadership for the team and motivation to be the best that they could be, while proving to be one of the most important players on the team. Although the beginning of the season was rough, East's football team pulled together in time to peak at the right moment for the playoffs. They made the season a success with their good offensive and superior defensive units. TICKET TO THE TOP the angels take control • Second effort allows junior Reggie Porter to gain extra yardage, giving East a touchdown. • Spotti ng a downfield receiver, Tim Kulick sets up to fire the ball. t The hard hitting Angel defense leaves G.W.'s offense without a prayer. 182 FOOTBALL �( 4 Concentrating on the play, the intensity of the moment keeps senior Mike Sayer at a peak of readiness. • A crushing tackle delivered by senior Brandon Davison sends the ball airborne. "Quality practice last year prepared the kids to play some really great and competitive football this season. It put them right on track for this year's success, despite lots of injuries and eligibility problems." -larry Tarver FOOTBAll 163 �Team support played a big role in th success of any team, but the football team cited it as one of the most important factors that brought them to the state play-offs. Encouragement and friendship developed out of this support, making this team work as a 'really clos -knit unit," according to senior Derek Geathers. Team members helped one another with encouragement, pats on the back, constructive criticism, and even prayer. "We cared and pushed each other to the best of our abilities," said senior Trent Orendorf. Everyone on the team relied on each other and support brought the players together. Coaching support was also important to the players. Coach Tarver provided assistance, knowledge, and motivation and received re- spect and performance on the field. When asked about the coach, the players agreed, "He's a good leader; he knows how to motivate us, and he knows people and the game." At times, school support enabled the team to enjoy big crowds and high spirits, but the school support was too inconsistent. "When we won, the school referred to it as 'we won,' but when we lost, it was 'they lost.' We want school spirit all the time, whether we win or lose." said senior Mike Hamilton. Unity and support gave the team a winning season and took them to the state play-offs. Their success, however, was not only due to support; they had many talented players, but support was a major factor, making the team "just a comraderie." WHEN THE HEAT IS ON support keeps the team together • In the state play-off game against orthglenn, senior Mark Tate tries to turn the corner. • On a hot football Saturday, a refreshing drink revives junior Jose Romero. 184 FOOTBALL �After a tough play, senior Trent Orendorf gives a consoling word to friend, Mark Tate.

Also under observation was the Denver law suit concerning male participation in gymnastics. Each school had different equipment, but not all schools had safe equipment. To solve this important problem, one would think each school should be outfitted with safe equipment, but there was not enough money to do so. The money which financed all public school sports was split to cover everything, with gymnastics seeing a relatively small fraction of it. The result of this neglect was unsafe equipment which could cause injuries. "Weak bars, hard floor mats, or worn out suede grips can cause real damage," said Sarah Lauen, the unlucky victim of a fall caused by a broken uneven bar during a meet at Lincoln High School. Another touchy point this year was male participation in gymnastics. One G.W. student sued the DPS and won the right to participate with the girls gymnastics team, creating quite a stir among coaches and gymnasts alike. "The chief problem with allowing males to compete," said junior Sarina Katz, "is that they will eventually dominate what used to be a girls sport." Despite a season filled with controversy, coach Marge O'Hara's Angels placed well in districts and entered the state competition.

Senior Todd Schiff enjoyed this year's team attitude and pointed out, "Competing individually put a lot of pressure on me, yet the leisureness of Coach Biffle relieved some of the tension." Since golf is such a personal game, one must have an immense feeling of concentration to succeed. Perhaps this was why the golf team tried to make it not so serious and pressuring. Devotion to the game was only part of the effort. The team members were devoted to each other as well. Team captain senior Porter Erisman recalled a time when teammate senior Andy lyford helped him out in a game, leading him to a final victory. Preparation is a large part of the game, and Porter summed it all up. "Most people don't understand the preparation it takes for golf. It requires mental preparation, physical discipline, and a proper wardrobe." Seniors Dave Morgan, Andy lyford, and Porter Erisman made it into the state tournament, with Porter and Andy making all-city as well. Although these three seniors finished last in the state tourney, Dave said he felt proud that "we were the worst of the best."

GOLF 189 �This year was the first for DPS women's softball and it marked the beginning of a fun, but unfortunate, season for twelve of East's girls. Only two of the girls, seniors Dedra Vaughn and Kathy Schlitter had ever played before and the team's inexperience showed in their winless season. Despite the losing season, the girls enjoyed themselves. They liked the action and the newness of the game along with the opportunity to meet new people. They also acquired new attitudes during this season. "We learned how to deal with losing," said senior Genet Erickson. "Despite everything, we still kept smiling!" Spirit and encouragement played a big role in keeping the girls' spirits up this season. All the girls were just starting out, so support and constructive criticism were important in every game. "We tried to keep each other's spirits up by cheering even though we were losing," commented senior Chessa Martin. "And after the games, we'd just laugh it off." Playing a new sport is hard for anyone, and inexperience really showed through for the girls softball team this year. It was a beginning, and next year more experience could make a difference in the team's performance. It was a good start, however, and besides, like Dedra Vaughn said, "Nobody wanted to win, we just wanted to play!!"

SOFTBALL 191 �This year's cross country team did very well considering the shortage of runners. Through determination and effort, the co-ed team was able to place second or third in almost every meet. This came about as a result of hard practice, often consisting of training runs of up to eight miles every day after school. From districts, senior Morgan Kaiser qualified to compete in the state meet. The members felt that they did very well, but could have done much better with more participation . "We have the talent," said junior Chris Updike, "but not the people." Although one can run alone in a meet as the only representative from her school, rankings are based on team performance . "We rarely had girls show up for practice or meets, and when they did we still didn 't have enough for a full team," complained senior Kate Flanigan. For next year, the team will be losing several valuable seniors, but the remaining members feel they will be able to do as well or even better regardless of the loss of graduating runners. It was the lack of participants that caused East's cross country team not to fare quite as well as they would have liked, but we can expect good things in coming years if the sport becomes more popular.

With a new coach and some talent, the boys basketball team had everything for a successful season. By the end of the first round, the boys had already won more games than last year's four total victories. With the talent and leadership of seniors Matt McDowell, Dirk Smith, Kevin Williams, Travis Boyens, Bobby Hargis, and Teri Sturgeon, the Angels were able to pick up their tradition of great basketball. Coach Larry Walter took over for Coach Rick Schraeder, who had successfully coached the team for several years. Due to his busy schedule, Coach Schraeder was unable to coach this year's team but Coach Walter has benefitted from his advice. Coach Walter tried to keep things similar to the way they'd been with Schraeder though he decided to allow a more free offense. He is a religious believer in rigid discipline and its part in team unity. A major problem that faced the team was its overall lack of previous varsity experience. Only two of the players had played on varsity before. Coach Walter said, "We didn't have a lot of players with varsity experience but with each game we played, we gained that experience." Everyone is optimistic that future seasons will be as successful. Fans and players alike feel the new winning trend will help basketball gain more popularity with the student body. Players agree that better attendance at games would greatly help team morale.

"The team must have a positive attitude," said sophomore Eron Dahl. "Team unity and positive attitude made the team more successful than in years past, also due to Coach Walter and Coach Turner." Being abl to cooperate with each other is also important but as Matt McDowell said, "A strong leader is just as important, someone to pull the team together." In a basketball game every second counts. The score of the game can change within seconds. The players move quickly running up and down the court with quick moves that fake out the opponent. Key players this sea- son were Kevin Williams, Matt McDowell, Hodari Henry, and Jon Laster. Their ability to use the court and their quick footwork led the varsity team through a good season. On the other hand, the girls team was led by Shawna Glen, Dacia Cooper, and Stacie Smith. The girls didn't get much spectator support from fans but, as Callan Miller said, "We work together and do the best we can." Basketball is a fast-paced game and players must be fit both physically and mentally. The players must be able to communicate and cooperate with each other. Skill and unity help to create an equal balance for a good basketball team.

Their success did not come easily. The dedicated few on the team struggled and practiced diligently to earn their treasured victories. Although the girls had a few returning players most were new. Many had played on the junior varsity, which made the team closer and much more confident about how to play the game. Each game was played with great individual effort. Callan Miller said, "Our team had really good players with individual skills, but we also had really good teamwork. That's important. " Coaches have always been there whether their team wins or loses. These coaches provided encouragement and support for their players. They created the enthusiasm that was lacking from the team . They used their coaching ability to build charisma and stamina within their players. Coach Graham fit all the superb qualities of a good coach . With all the hard work the girls put into their team, they deserved their winning season and the success they earned through competition in the always tough Denver prep league.

BA KETBALL 199 �The mens' swim team had a powerful year as some of their top swimmers won victory after victory. However, quite untrue to their traditionally rambunctious form, the team bowed under the iron fist of second year coach Renate Schmidt. Renate's knowledge and winning expertise helped many swimmers excel to new heights. Despite the decrease in the number of swimmers this year, it did not affect the amount of talent. With a lot of hard work and times always dropping, many swimmers had their best season yet and felt that everyone gave their best. Outstanding swimmers included senior Travis "Mosi" Rundlet, who excelled at butterfly; and sophomore Marty "Sid" Harrison, the team's point leader, who qualified for state in almost every event, and competed at the state championships, in the 200 individual medley and 100 backstroke. Junior Gareth Saxe and sophomore Brian Turner also contributed to the quality of the team. Leading the troop of fearless "men from Atlantis" were senior co-captains Jonathan "Jaws" Ashton and Mike "the Spike" Sawyer. Both captains led the team in many rousing choruses of "chicks" cheers. Spirit was at an all-time high on the team, as the men combined work and play for a successful season.

They usually partic1pated intensely in their particular sport or got involved in the sport soon after.

Not only did the coaches really get into the sport they coached , but many of them participated in the actual practices. It gave them a chance to stay in great shape and to try to keep up with the up and com- ing athletes. Because the season only lasts for part of the year, most of the coaches taught classes and participated in various other activites. Mr. Peters, who coached cross country also taught social studies. The golf coach, Mr. Biffle, was also of course a full time counselor, and Mr. Sturk played on a competitive year round men's soccer team. Mrs. Johnson-Graham taught a computer class and was also the girls basketball coach. Everyone involved appreciated our coaches' hard work and valuable time spent on making our teams number one.

COACHE 205 �Sports do not only involve a big commitment from the players, but a big obligation for the coaches as well. Coaches are responsible for converting talent into a successful team which requires a lot of time and energy. Despite this fact, East's coaches still say they love it! A good example of this can be seen in softball. Coach Bates said about coaching this sport, "Sometimes it got a little frustrating because the girls went into the season with really no idea about the game or how to work together. I had to teach them step by step - first to throw, then to catch, then to bat " Although it was hard, he looks back and remembers, "One of my greatest enjoyments was to see a girl catch the ball, look down at her hand, and then jump for joy because she accomplished something she didn't know how to do before." All coaches agree that the time and energy involved in coaching would never be worth it if it weren't for the kids. They truly enjoy working with the players and having the opportunity to see them improve both physically and mentally. They like the chance to help kids accomplish things they feel good about, and are rewarded for their hours of hard work when they see smiles on the kids' faces. "Most kids are enthusiastic and eager to learn and participate," says gymnastics coach Marge O'Hara, "and it's those kids I really enjoy working with." Many hours of hard work are needed to develop successful players in any sport. At East, our coaches do this just for the rewards they get from the kids. Batting is an area of softball that Sgt . Bates needs to work on with player Kathy Schlitter. COACHES CORNER "it's all for the kids'' Before the start of the baseball season, Coach Severtson pauses because he knows he won't have a chance to during the season. During an important match, tennis coach Mark Thalhofer "notes" the progress of the team. 206 COACHES �Before a game, Coach Graham gives a few last minute pointers to the girls varsity basketball team .

Played tennis "all through life" and taught at private clubs. Dur ing his seve nth year at East, girls' te nn 1s coach Phil Krous is still able to re lax and have fun with his coaching. "COACHES" 207 �Several events are included in track. There are field events: the shot put, discus, high jump, long jump, tripl jump, and pole vault. Actual races include sprints, distance and hurdles. To compete effectively 1n track, competitors must be physically as well as mentally prepared. In addition, team spirit helps the individual as well as the whole team. Every event requires a different amount of work. A pole vaulter uses 70°/o of his training time on technique, 10°/o on weights and 20% on sprint work. In comparison, a high jumper spends 60°' o on technique and 40°/o on sprinting and conditioning. So, for each different competition, a different amount of practice is needed. Runners must practi eon their race. Sprinters, of ourse, run short r distances at faster paces while distance runners obviously run longer distances at a slower pace. Middle distance runners combine sprints and d1stance. No matter what the event, the competitor mu t be prepared mentally. printers must visualize their race because it is over within seconds. A distance runner must know when to speed up or slow down to succe d. As far as the team, it is important to set goals. Although each individual sets goals for him or herself, in the end, everyone pulls for everyone else. BUILDING A TEAM preparation is the key to success • Gettang ready for their races, Michelle Honeycutt and Rhonda Porter warm up. • After a hard race LaMont Dailey tries to recuperate by walking around. • W orking hard to put themselves in the best shape possible, senior Jenny Bowes and junior Gayna Schliske do pushups. 208 TRACK �• Showing determination, Matt McDowell jumps over the hurdle. • Reaching for distance, Sydnei Johnson leaps to his destination.

Practice begins several weeks before the first game so the coach can gauge the abilities of each individual. It is held every day after school and on Saturday mornings for varsity players. Practices begin with warm-up exercises which include running and stretching. After warm-up the team splits up according to the positions played where each works to perfect techniques necessary to play that position. Game experience is also impor- tant, so a majority of practice is spent in scrimmaging. All parts of practice are important in achieving a city championship and this practice has clearly paid off in past years. In the 1987 season, the baseball team took the city championship, then capped off the season with a victory over Cherry Creek in the state quarterfinals. This year's team was admirably led by seniors Tim Kulick, John Lankenau, Eric McCarty, Brandon Davison and junior j.C. Klein. During practice, junior Angelo Duncan awaits the perfect pitch. HEADING FOR HOME angels round the bases Practice and concentration will certainly help Chris Grey bat the Angels to a winning season. left-handed powerhouse Scott Falcone awaits the pitch as Angelo Duncan sets the target. 212 BASEBAll �4 Practice brings out the "tough" in seniors Eric McCarty and Tim Stegink. • Eying the strike zone, Chad Zeman puts all his energy into his release.

Freshmen wondered what they were doing and why upperclassmen continued knocking them down in scrimmages. All this went on in addition to shuttles and 12 minute runs at the end of practice which pushed everyone to their physical limits. The first cut left the varsity with an assortment of freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors. More surprises were in store with the announcement of running City Park and the golf course three mornings in a row, throughout the course of the season and in any weather condition. "Getting up and running at six o'clock isn't hard," commented junior Carol Atencio. " The problem is waking up at the end of every class for the rest of the day." Erin Ryan, a sophomore, felt that the extra running would give East an edge over the other teams. One major goal was presented to everyone from the beginning of the season : winning the state soccer championship after last year's varsity team reached the quarterfinals. less tension among classes helped tryouts with a feeling of camaraderie among all. A high turnout from all four classes produced enough for an additional freshmen and junior varsity teams. All three teams moved on to many successes, lots of fun and much unity.

TE IS 217 �Tennis has had a fantastic history of individual achievement. The abilities of individual and doubles teams combine to give East a slightly more than average team. This team's main focus is on the competition, as Heidi McCotter said, "There is good competition with Manual, TJ, and Kennedy." The team, on the average, is fairly experienced as they attempt to focus in on the competition's strategy and find ways to surpass it. All the seniors returning to tennis have played for at least two years. What makes them come back to such a demanding sport? It might be their coach who, "Gives a love of the sport, has patience and offers encouragement and friendship," according to senior Hilary Garnsey. Most tennis players seem to remember outside activities the most, mainly because their group stays close together on and off the court. The tennis team this year is a result of a strong past history, expected to continue along this path for years. WHAT A RACKET can't seem to shake it As she waits for the ball, senior Heidi McCotter positions herself at the net. • Struggling to keep her balance, senior Heather Reed waits to lob the ball. . • Keeping the ball in play and in bounds, Beth Shaffer reaches for the ball. �4 Playing doubles requires skill, concentration and fun demonstrated by seniors lisa Katzman and Sacha Brown. • Intense thought is used by Sara Fenton to aim her backhand shots.

TE 219 �Lacrosse, as the fastest game on foot, has drawn many fine athletes to the team. Some have just learned the sport while others have played it most of their lives. Despite the different levels of experience, team members showed incredible teamwork, agility and skill, which for years has made them one of the best teams in the state. Boys lacrosse, in its tenth year as a club, has made an excellent impact in the Denver high school athletics program. Under the fine direction of coaches Jon Barocas and Tom Konkel, the team has achieved state championship victories two out of the three years that they have gone to state. "Our varsity team is always trying to better itself. The competition for starting positions is constantly present, therefore everyone on our team is always trying to give more than 100%," goalie Michael Parks explained. Though the team loses many fine players every year, motivation keeps them on top along with a lot of young raw talent from Kent Denver, Colorado Academy, and Graland Country Day. Coach Barocas and Coach Konkel do their best to keep up the winning spirit for a winning team and it showed as the East/Manual boys lacrosse team was a success again this year. TRADITION OF CHAMPIONS boys lax takes it to the top • Concentration is a key part of the game as seen by Manual senior B.J.

SPORT 221 �This year's girls lacrosse team was blessed with a number of returning sophomores and juniors. Although they lost some important senior players, such as their starting goalie, the team showed promise and completed a competitive year of practice and games. With a new coach, Judy Burlingame, the team did its best to match the previous year's success. They practiced every day for two hours, starting in mid February until the end of the season, in May. To psyche themselves up for their games, the girls held pep sessions and dinners to concentrate on upcoming games. This not only improved the team's performance, but it built team comraderie and friendships which lasted beyond the lacrosse season. With loads of spirit and a strong, competitive style of play, the girls team had a successful season. Senior Sacha Vignieri summed it all up, "Despite the fact that it's a lot of hard work, and we all finish practice exhausted, it's all worth it when we win a game."

KAPLAN - Educational Center For review of SAT call 761-8904 ADS 237 �At the end of every school year, students face the same problem: saying goodbye. Although most will only be saying so long for now, it is the seniors who must contemplate the depressing fact that they might not see their fellow high school classmat s ev r again. For freshmen, sophomores, and juniors gathering on the school steps on the last day of school, farewells carry nothing near the weight placed on the seniors' d partures. This is because of possible meetings in the summer. It is true that many students travel over th summer, but seeing schoolmates at parties, restaurants, or sports activities is far from uncommon. Some common utterances heard by those who anticipate an autumn remeeting range from "Have a great summ r!" to "See ya later." Indeed, how does on say goodbye to four years of friendship? That same question was asked of seniors this year, and here are some of their answers: "To recall special memories and promise to create more in the future." "Spend two weeks in the mountains alone with them, reminiscing." "Have a great party to recall special memories together." One student summed it all up when she explained the only way to say goodbye: "with many tears." MOVING RIGHT ALONG it's time to say goodbye Juniors Craig Benjamm and Laura Tubbesing show the affection they hold for one another. • • 238 GOODBYE Smiling sophomore Matt Baskey and junior Megan Michael pose on the esplanade. Friends forever, Kanard Williams and Jennifer Schneider smile for the camera. Partying it up, JUniors Matt LaBarge, Ben Wood, Steve Bruner, icole Myers, Dan Crane, Heather Lamm, and Antonio Aiello display their friendship for each other �4 Hoping to further his cause, jun1or Erik Hanson preaches com rvatism to junior xchange stud nt Masaya Hakamoto . • Juniors Matt laBarg , Andrea Bevis, and Kelly Evans all hav mixed motions about the end of the school year. Goofmg off during the lunch hour are senndre iors Curt \1 ood, Rob Wyatt, Pounds, JUnior Mike Kirchner, and sophomores Kristel England and my hear. Makmg memories that they can look back on, seniors Tia Jones and Joi Stokes enjoy the moment. GOODBYE 239 �All students come out of high school with one or two teachers they remember the best. Many students develop strong friendships that last even after the student leaves the school. Students come back after they've graduated to visit and impress their favorite teachers. Teachers aren't always the dictators they seem to be; they can always help with a problem and can be understanding in hard times. As some students said, "They are always there when I need help and were willing to sit down and discuss my problems with me."" As much as they try to be mean and tough they are actually real people who are very caring." "They make learning fun and they sympathize with my problems." Everyone also remembers the class they struggled through, staying up all night studying for tests; the class they got their lowest grade in . Afterwards you realize how much the class helped you become a better person. It helped you learn how to study better and do better in other classes. As said by one senior, "As far as the good teachers go, I'll remember their enthusiasm for teaching and all the fun." UNDERSTANDING THE STUDENTS teachers as friends • Mr. Jackson helps Kurt Woods find the book he needs. Planning for the future, Lynnice Champion gets help from Mrs. Bushnell. 240 GOODBYE �4 Mr. Bloomfield IS always w1llmg to help April Deleon with her work. • While in lndustiral Ed. Club, Dr. Kos explains to Edee Cook how to perfect her project. • Mr. Marsh shows Donald Mayhew the next step in repairing electronics. GOODBYE 241 �As the end of the year approaches, crazy thoughts run through the heads of graduating seniors. Although it is a time for exciting changes, it is also a time for the sad, classic "goodbye." Many seniors will leave their families to pursue college, careers, or simply to grow up and move away. As you say goodbye, you leave more than the place you have called home for all these years. Growing up involves saying good-bye to the old, messy room, pesky siblings, nagging parents, and old faithful Fido. However, saying goodbye is never a permanent thing. All of your childhood memories stay in your mind, popping up at strange moments to remind you to call mom. Happy memories of dad taking the training wheels off of your first two-wheeler, and mom kissing the scrapes from your first crash live in your mind. Excursions to the zoo and your first baby brother always slip back into your thoughts. Mom helping pick out that special dress for a dance, or dad's "be careful with the car" lecture will always be there. Goodbye is always hard to say to those dear friends that you have had good times and bad with, those buddies who will never change. But perhaps the hardest goodbye is the one said to that special girl or boy that you never want to leave. As we all grow older, we are faced with many farewells. As seniors approach that fateful moving day, remember that goodbyes are only as permanent as you make them. SUPPORT THROUGH THE YEARS student/parent relationships Preparing herself for post high school life, Daena Thomas practices her typing skills. GOODBYE �4 Keeping a work schedule along with school prepares laurie lee for a post high school life. • Getting dropped off at school is something that most high schoolers will not m1ss when they leave home. • After missing a day of school, Shelia Morgan was thankful for her mom's excuse. 4 Once again, Drew Peterson got his Friday night money from his mom.
