BUILDING — Shortridge High
School has been at 3401 N. Meridian for
fifty years. It was dedicated in 1928.
Since then, Shortridge has had a shaky
future. For years it has been threatened
with closing. Recently it has been pro-
vided with new foundations for an even
longer future. The school has been
promised new facilities and is expand-
ing physically. Shortridge is also ex-
panding in population. Because stu-
dents from private and parochial
schools are transferring to Shortridge, it
is growing.

However, BUILDING is more than a
structure with new facilities and new
people. BUILDING is growing and
changing, and adding new interests to
your life. It is preparing yourself for life
after high school. BUILDING is adopt-
ing values and ideas. BUILDING is also
progressing toward a goal and forming
relationships with people you en-
counter.

Shortridge is a changing establish-
ment; expanding, growing — BUILD-
ING.

Beautiful Sites Surround SHS

The community offers much to the
Shortridger. There are businesses,
shops, and stores ranging from King's
Drugstore to the Viking Bakery and Big
Fella's. Churches sponsor sports pro-
grams, youth meetings, and religious
services. Public services, such as the
Metro, are used by students every day.
The community also offers special pro-
grams out of school. Shortridgers par-
ticipate in math, poetry, and chemistry
contests, the Indiana University Honors
Program in Foreign Language, Minority
Engineering, journalism workshops,
and political conferences.

Shortridge depends on the commu-
nity for support of programs and ac-
tivities. Parents are involved with team
sports, parent-teacher organizations,
and volunteer work. The ECHO, the

ANNUAL, the program for Junior Vau-
deville, and the programs for various
sports depend on ads from businesses
and patrons.

Shortridge is a neighborhood school.
Two of its feeder neighborhoods are
naturally integrated. This, and the fact
that the community showed its concern
when closing was threatened are two
reasons that Shortridge was kept open.

The community would do poorly
without Shortridge. Attending a
neighborhood school increases stu-
dents' pride in their community. We
are proud of the Shortridge community.

The Main Office

An Open Letter to Shortridge Stu-
dents:

Have you ever gone into the Main Of-
fice without a specific reason? It might
be worth your while to walk in and ab-
sorb the atmosphere. I must warn you,
though, not to get in the way. There are
a few chairs around; take a seat in one
and just look around you.

Mr. Johnson, Mr. King, or Mr. Old-
ham are sure to walk by, enter their of-
fices and continue their work. Their se-
cretaries are busy typing, filing, phon-
ing, or taking their very precious coffee
breaks. Teachers, parents, custodians,
security police, and students are likely
to be arranging plans, solving prob-
lems, receiving orders or just talking
with the friendly people in high places.
The telephone is being answered as
quickly as it rings. The mail has just
arrived and is being distributed.

The Main Office has an air of confu-
sion. But this is an orderly confusion.
Everything is being taken care of.

Visiting the Main Office will give you
another image of this BUILDING we
call Shortridge.

Teacher Job Action Closes Schools

When the Indianapolis Public School
teachers started the school year they did
not have a signed contract. Many stu-
dents did not even know of this dispute
until October 19, 1977.

October 19, 1977 — city teachers plan
work stoppage to force settlement —
teachers encouraged by Indiana Educa-
tion Association to take "personal
business leave" day on October 20 —
Kalp says every effort will be made to
staff schools.

October 20, 1977 — teacher job action
cripples schools — eight of eleven city
high schools, thirty-two of one hundred
and one elementary and junior high
schools closed or affected — one
thousand teachers attend rally at H.U.
Brown Theater in Butler University.

October 31, 1977 — teacher represen-
tatives push contract ratification — con-
tracts drawn up after two days of
negotiations — key issues: increased
salary for teachers, improvement with
smaller class sizes, reduction in the
number of split classes.

November 9, 1977 — city teachers
ratify contract nine months after talks
began — vote is 1749 to 317 — Dean
Brown, executive director of Indiana
Education Association, says, "The
teacher association hopes to start talks
on next year's contract within a few
weeks; then teachers can see the new
contract in June and return with a more
positive attitude."

Homecoming Festivities a Success

Homecoming activities started off
with a leap this year with Spirit Week.
Freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and
seniors decorated halls on the third
floor. These halls were judged on Fri-
day, with the Senior Hall coming in
first. Spirit megaphones and pompons
were sold by the Junior Class and the
Student Council respectively.

The Homecoming game, SHS vs.
Wood, started at 7:00 p.m. with Wood
kicking to Shortridge. Touchdowns
were made by Frank Ovelton, Mike
Sanders, Mike Davis, and Hiram
Wheat. The final score was 44-7, SHS
over Wood.

Half time activities included a parade
of the class floats and the Homecoming
Court. King Michael Butler and Queen
Dianna Davidson represented the Se-
nior Class. The Junior Princess was
Sheila Ferguson and her escort was
David Girton. Sophomore Princess
Bernice Warren was escorted by Fred-
die Banks, and the Freshman Princess
was escorted by Sonny Bates.

"It's never routine . . . it's interest-
ing," said Officer Donna Douglas of her
job as security police officer at Shor-
tridge. The newest member on Shor-
tridge's force of five police was Officer
Smith. Sergeant Lockett was the veteran
of the squad with seven years of experi-
ence. To qualify for this job, the five
police had to take training with the In-
dianapolis Police Department. Training
included karate, first aid, communica-
tions codes, coronary pulmonary resus-
citation, and knowledge of criminal
law. After training, some officers re-
quest to be placed at a specific school.
The Shortridge security police agree
that the worst part of their job is having
to arrest a student after all else has
failed.

Although their official title is security

Security Police at Shortridge

police, they are often called "security
guards." The difference between
guards and police is that police have
more training. Sergeant Lockett hopes
that they will soon be commonly refer-
red to as security police.

When someone says, "security
police," it is easy to think of a vicious
guard, armed with mace and a german
shepherd. The Shortridge security
police have changed this picture to one
of persons to be respected.

Cafeteria Has Efficient System

Most students and faculty take the
cafeteria for granted. The seventeen-
member staff works hard to please the
crowd; their day begins at 5:00 a.m. and
usually lasts until 3:00 p.m. Mrs. Pollitt,
the food manager for Shortridge, also
makes all of the baked desserts. When
asked if she enjoyed her job, Mrs. Pol-
litt stated, "I wouldn't be here if I
didn't."

Most of the food used in the cafeteria
is purchased on bids. Companies send
the bids to the Education Center and
they choose some and check their
choice with Mrs. Pollitt. This process
repeats itself twice a year.

The youngest on the staff this year
was Darnice McGraw, in her early
twenties. The staff worked well with
the equipment they had, making for an
efficient system.

Shortridge Celebrates 114th Birthday

The March 24th, 1928 issue of The In-
dianapolis News stated, "Many a grad-
uate of Shortridge High School gasps
with astonishment when he views the
impressive new building at North
Meridian and 34th Streets that is near-
ing completion." This was understand-
able, considering the history of Shor-
tridge as explained in The News. From
1864 to 1884 the Indianapolis High
School, as it was then called, met in
three different locations downtown. A
permanent structure was built in April
of 1884 at Michigan and Pennsylvania
Streets. The new building was consi-
dered to be modern for the times, and
both students and teachers marveled at
the wide corridors and the beautiful
main staircase.

In 1897 the name Shortridge High
School was adopted in honor of A.C.
Shortridge, who was responsible for the
organization of the school in 1864.

But as all things change, Shortridge
too changed, and the need for a new
building became evident. In 1928 the
present building at 34th and Meridian
Streets opened. The 1928 Annual was
dedicated to "the old building" at
Michigan and Pennsylvania Streets.

Besides structural changes, Shor-
tridge has also gone through two world
wars, twenty- three United States presi-
dents, and sixty-one 500-mile races.

As the 1928 Annual was dedicated to
"the old building," it is necessary to
remember the success of the fifty years
Shortridge has had in this building and
the one hundred and fourteen years it
has had as a school.

Long live Shortridge!

There has been some doubt over the va-
lidity of a high school diploma. The gradua-
tion of a California high school student in
1977 caused much discussion about the ac-
countability of schools. It became a national
issue when the student's parents sued the
school system. In response to this case, In-
dianapolis Public Schools administered the
California Achievement Test in September
of 1977. From the results, the faculty deter-
mined common strengths and weaknesses.
For the second semester classes were orga-
nized to fill special needs. We are BUILD-
ING on our strengths and dealing with our
weaknesses.

Film-making Classes New at Shortridge

Enrollment in the Art Department in-
creased this year, especially in the
jewelry classes, according to depart-
ment head Mrs. Corrie Wilson.

The department spent the first semes-
ter preparing for the artist-in-residence
filmmaker and the new filmmaking
class that he helped teach the second
semester. Approximately fifty students
signed up for the new class, which was
made possible by a matching grant
from the Indiana Arts Commission.

Second semester students partici-
pated in the Scholastic Regional Contest
held at L.S. Ayres. They also sent in en-
tries to the 500 Art Contest. Senior stu-
dents kept themselves busy preparing
portfolios to sent to colleges. Art work
of students in all classes was displayed
on the third floor, adding a bright
touch.

The Art Department continues to
grow and expand to meet the increasing
interest of the students.

Photography Exposure Enlarges SHS

Although Photography classes were a
fairly new addition to Shortridge, they
grew in popularity this year. The
classes began in the spring of 1977 after
the completion of a new darkroom. The
number of students enrolled in the
course this year was small, but more are
expected to sign up next year.

With the help of 35 mm cameras, stu-
dents photographed, developed, and
enlarged their own pictures. Many of
these photographs were then entered in
the Scholastic Arts Contest, the 500 Fes-
tival of Arts Contest and other lo-
cally sponsored photography contests.

According to Photography teacher
Ms. Libs, "Photography is as important
for an individual's own self-enrichment
as other art forms. The study of photog-
raphy is also useful in other job fields a
student may be interested in."

Science Dept. Aids Student Growth

This year the Science Department's
main goal was to get students interested
in science and encourage them to take
more extensive and advanced courses at
Shortridge. This was accomplished by
the addition of several new types of
equipment. One of these was an Envi-
ronmental Growing Chamber which al-
lowed students to change the environ-
ment in the chamber and see the reac-
tion this change had on plants.

Another goal was to emphasize the
metric system in General Science
courses as well as in Chemistry, Biology
and Physics classes.

According to department head, Mrs.
Smith, the world around one is the
study of science and to further that
study, science courses are imperative to
a student's growth.

The Physical Education and Health
Department underwent one major
change this year. Physical Education
classes were coed! Both male and female
students had to participate in such
sports as gymnastics, archery, basket-
ball and wrestling. (Girls only had to
learn the pins in wrestling.)

In Health classes, teachers tried to
make students better acquainted with
basic health and anatomy so that they
would be able to comprehend and
apply the total health program to their
future needs.

Once again, the Physical Education
and Health Department continued to
help students exercise both body and
mind.

Language Arts Department New at SHS

One of the most unusual changes at
Shortridge this year was the formation
of the Language Arts Department. This
was accomplished by combining the
English and the Foreign Language De-
partments. Mr. Allen Sutherland, for-
merly the head of the Foreign Language
Department, took on the challenging
job of organizing the new department.
He also continued teaching Humani-
ties, Career English, and French classes.

The Language Arts Department re-
ceived one new teacher this year, Mrs.
Elfi Cicak. Mrs. Cicak, a former German
citizen, taught all of the German classes
as well as the first year French students.

With these combined forces, this new
Language Arts Department promises to
grow stronger eveiy year.

Foreign Languages Offer
Cultural Exposure

The Language Arts Department has
the largest variety of clubs in the school.
This year with the aid of Mrs. Elfi
Cicak, the German Club received new
life and participated in a variety of ex-
periences. The Russian Club main-
tained their usual activities and is still
the only club of its kind in the city. The
Language Arts Department also sup-
ported the Quill and Scroll and National
Honor Society. These clubs are highly
selective and choose pupils for mem-
bership on the basis of grade point av-
erage and student participation in
school activities.

According to Department head Mr.
Allen Sutherland, "The Language Arts
Department is working beautifully with
the help of all of the faculty and staff.

What was that delicious smell coming
from the second floor that made your
mouth water in English class? And
where did all those girls get those great
looking outfits? All this and more were
products of the Home Economics De-
partment right here at Shortridge.!

The department went all out this year
and added a new class, Needle-art. It
also expanded on Clothing classes with
an end of the year fashion show as well
as entering some students in the 7th
district style show.

In Foods classes teachers emphasized
correct serving practices as well as the
basics of food nutrition.

Hard work and determination by de-
partment head Mary Davis and her staff
helped make one of the most popular
departments at Shortridge.

The Industrial Arts Department re-
mained fairly unchanged this year. Me-
chanical Drawing, Electricity and
Power Mechanics proved to be the most
popular classes.

The department still feels Industrial
Arts is a necessary part of everyone's
school experience and encouraged girls
to enroll as well as boys.

The Print Shop continued to print all
the school stationery, corridor passes
and most important of all, our school
paper, the ECHO.

Department head Mr. C.J. Thomas
said, "We want students to become
familiar with as many industrial
processes as possible so that they may
be in a better position to select one as
their life's work."

The start of a new school year
brought to the Shortridge Math De-
partment Mrs. Janeen Wilcox, the new
department head. Under her leadership
the department laid the foundation for
expansion and growth. For the first
time in recent years a calculus class was
taught and there were more students
enrolled in Advanced Math than ever
before. Outside of school, students
showed interest by participating in
local, regional, and national math con-
tests.

The goal this year was to generate
even more enthusiasm for the depart-
ment so that students would want to
continue taking mathematics courses
after the required year was completed.

As Mrs. Wilcox says, "We want them
to be able to function when they get out
of high school whether they choose to
go on to college or not."

portunities to experience real life prob-
lems confronting government nation-
ally and internationally.

standing of our country's geography.

Business Booms at SHS

The Business Department was ex-
panded this year in more ways than
one. Besides increased enrollment in
classes, especially Typing, Data Process-
ing and Record Keeping, the depart-
ment received two new machines.
These machines, an offset printing
machine and a word processing
machine enabled pupils to receive a
more extensive study of modern busi-
ness techniques.

The department tried to show all stu-
dents the importance of business train-
ing for college-bound students as well
as those not planning to attend college.

Through these changes, Shortridge
continued to give its students an up-
to-date business education.

Beautiful Voices
Fill Fourth Floor

Vocal music, a tradition here at Short-
ridge, has been kept at its finest by Mr.
Myron El. Mr. El, who has been a
teacher here for two years, says, "We
have a lot of girls that look good for the
future, but we need more males. I think
that most males are influenced by their
peer group to think vocal music is 'girl-
ish', but it's not. It's a form of art
through which an individual can ex-
press himself in any way he chooses."

Mr. El has really done a fantastic job
for vocal music here at Shortridge, from
A Cappella choir to the senior musical,
"The Me Nobody Know."

Music Department Keeps Up High Standards

The Marching Band, directed by Mr.
Leonard Behling, began its season two
weeks before school was in session. Al-
though the band had to recuperate from
the loss of so many seniors last year,
they made an outstanding performance
nevertheless, with much planned for
the Concert Band.

This year marked the 45th annual
Sweaterman Concert. Originating in
1932, its main purpose is to perform
several pieces of serious, high quality
music for the public.

The band's fund raising events were
combined with the entire Music De-
partment in the selling of family por-
traits. The money was used for the
purchase of new band uniforms and
choir robes. Money was also raised by
the Band Boosters during the home
football games through the operating of
the concession stands.

"This year's band is a growing band;
very young, very immature, but with
tremendous potential!" said Mr. Behl-
ing.

Band music was not the only music
coming from the fourth floor this year.
Violins, violas, and other string in-
struments added their voices to the air.

Although the String Ensemble lost
quite a few members to the 1977 gradu-
ation, it still kept up the tradition of
fine music. The Ensemble though
small, was determined to leave its mark
on 1977-78. Through hard work and lots
of practice, it was able to send half of its
members to the High School All-City
Orchestra, giving Shortridge. a good
representation.

Although the actual scores for individual
teams were not outstanding, the interest in
sports at Shortridge has grown. Students
who didn't participate in sports still
showed their spirit by supporting the vari-
ous teams. This support came in the form of
cheering the team on at the games, buying
candy and participating in special game ac-
tivities.

Four new coaches were added to the staff.
Mr. Irwin coached the soccer team. The new
freshman and reserve football coaches were

Most Valuable Player. Rod Smith
played number three singles. The num-
ber one doubles team was composed of
John Payton and Harold Pettigrew.
They finished with an eight and six
record. The number two doubles team
consisted of Darren Smartt and David
Girton. The three reserve players were
Matt McLaughlin, Damon Clark, and
John Brown.

Coach Tolin's season was capped by a
seventh place in the city tournament,
which was very respectable. They
played their home matches at Riverside
Park. Next year's season promises to be
a good one.

Rasdell Takes 77 MVR

The 1977 boys' track team, coached
by Jim Hausmann, had a record of three
wins and four losses.

Greg "Squirrel" Rasdell was chosen
Most Valuable Runner. He gathered the
most points for the season. Squirrel was
the strongest sprinter of the team. The
competition was fierce in the 100-yard,
200-yard dashes and the 880-yard relay.
The team expects a lot of him next sea-
son.

The Most Outstanding Performer was
Raymond Howard. He was chosen for
his performance in the Sectionals.
Raymond was bothered with a leg in-
jury all year, but he stayed with it and
did well.

The coach's choice for Most Improved
Runner was John Cougan. His time in
the mile run at the start of the year was
disappointing. With much hard work
each day John brought his time down
considerably. Coach Hausmann is look-
ing for an even better performance next
year.

Above — Frank Ovelton shows his hurdle style on the way to another win. The 110 yard high hurdles
was his best race, as he also ran 880-yard and 180-yard low hurdles.

Crawley has High Hopes

The Blue Devils' Golf team suffered a
disappointing 2 and 10 season in '11 .
However, things are looking up. Said
Coach Richard Crawley, "The team
scores were much better than last
year's." The Devils had only one senior
on the team. With three freshmen and
one sophomore, the future looks bright.

The Satans finished fifth in the
Northwest Invitational and thirteenth
in the city. Their score of 363 was the
best Sectional team score in years.

Senior Andy McLaughlin was the
team's top golfer, with an average of
forty-one.

The 1977 cross-country team had
their best season in a long time, with 6
wins and 8 losses. Coach James Haus-
mann had nine runners make the team
this year which is more than they have
had in the past years.

John Cougan III was chosen the Most
Valuable Runner. He ran in the number
one position all year. His best time for
the 2V2 mile course was 13 minutes and
31 seconds. The number two runner
was sophomore Kenny Crossland who's
best time was 13 minutes and 53 sec-
onds. Overall the team did very well,
and with the number of underclassmen,
should be very good next season.

The team finished 13th in the city,
with Johnny Cougan leading the team,
placing 43rd out of over 200 runners.

Soccer Team Falls Short of Hopes

The soccer team fell short of hopes in
the fall of '77 , coming in last in the
league. With the coaching of Mr. Stan
Irwin and practices throughout the win-
ter, the team improved for the spring
season. The fall of 1977 brought com-
plete uniforms for the team. Unfortu-
nately, they didn't arrive in time for
team pictures.

As always the foreign exchange stu-
dents gave life and skill to the team.
Outstanding was Ali Coulibaly from
the Ivory Coast. Alfredo Naranjo from
Chili helped in the fall. Andrew Mak-
witz from Israel gave light at the end of
the tunnel to the defense.

Soccer in general in Indianapolis is
becoming more and more popular.
With over sixty high school and junior
high teams and prospects for a profes-
sional team by the end of '78, it is easy
to see that soccer is fast becoming a
major sport.

The 1977-78 football season had more
surprises than head coach Gary Brown
could ever imagine. First, coach Brown
had one of the largest turnouts as over
sixty-five players tried to make this
year's team. Second, coach Brown's
team finished with a six win and four
loss record instead of the expected four
wins and six losses upsetting highly
rated Washington (6-0), Howe (20-0),
and Brebeuf (26-7). The third surprise
was that the Shortridge defense only
gave up 11.8 points a game on the aver-
age. Fourth, and maybe the best sur-
prise of all, was that coach Brown had
two of his players (Tony Williamson
and Darrell Poston) make the first team
of the All-City Football Squad. Tony
Williamson was also named to the UPI
All-State team while Darrell Poston re-
ceived Honorable Mention. Williamson
led this year's great defensive unit in
almost every area. He had 71 tackes, 36
assists, 13V2 sacks, and 5 fumble re-
coveries. The offensive unit had a tough
first part of the year, but with the return
of Wingback Frank Ovelton, things
started to click. Alphonzo Bailey's pas-
sing and running along with help from
Kenny Peacock, assisted the Devils
greatly.

Bright spots were hard to find in
the 1977-78 boys' basketball season.
The Blue Devil team finished with a 5
and 15 record. Coach Don Thomas
had a great collection of talent and
height, but the team just could not
put it together. All-City forward, se-
nior Joe Ward, was one of the few
outstanding players on this year's
team. Ward led the team in scoring
with a 19 point average. He also led in
rebounds. The reserve team was
coached by Rod Trabue. High scorers
were David Smith, Reggie Gibbs, and
Hiram Wheat. The freshman team
had a great year, led by Jerome Jor-
man and Jeff Sample. All three
coaches were so impressed with these
players that Sample was moved up to
the reserve team, and Jorman went to
the varsity team. He scored six points
in the sectional game against
Washington.

The sectional game was full of ten-
sion and excitement. The score vol-
leyed back and forth by small leads.
The final two points were scored by
Ernie Sellers, but unfortunately there
wasn't enough time to score another
basket and win against top-rated
Washington. The final score was

Many Shortridgers don't know that
the most successful SHS team of the
season was the 1977-78 wrestling team,
coached by Mr. E. Wright. They
finished the season with a most impres-
sive 10 and 4 record. They also took first
place honors in the Edgewood and
Manual wrestling tournaments and
finished third in the Tipton tourney.
The grapplers placed second in the sec-
tionals and advanced six wrestlers to
the regional competition. They were
seniors Russell Quarles, Rick Williams,
Darrell Poston, Eric Anderson, and ju-
niors Leland Brown and David Collins.
Although Collins was the only one to
make it to semi-state, and was defeated
there, Mr. Wright was proud of his
team. Next year should be even better
for the team as many of this year's
members will be returning.

5E HIGH SCHOOC

VOLLEYBALL SET UP FOR
BUMPY SEASON

The Girls' Volleyball Team was
coached this year by Mrs. Medarda
Pope, a new Shortridge faculty
member. The Varsity-Reserve team
consisting of sixteen girls was fairly
young this year because a majority of
last year's Varsity squad did not return.
The Reserve squad was composed of
three sophomores and three freshmen.
Said Mrs. Pope of the team, "They
never lacked spirit or perseverence."
Although they played all three games in
each match, the team just couldn't pull
it all together to win the necessary two
games out of three. But the girls made a
comeback in the sectionals by beating
Brebeuf in the first round.

The Most Valuable Player, based on
sportsmanship, leadership, and player
ability, was Sherry Williams. The best
servers, based on points scored, were
Valerie Sharpe and Cheryl Wilson. The
team's managers were Pearl Watts and
Carmella Zachery. The managers were
in charge of keeping records, maintain-
ing equipment, and cheering the team
on.

Mrs. Pope plans to return as coach
next year and has high hopes for a bet-
ter season.

INTRAMURAL BOWLING

The Intramural Bowling team,
coached by Mr. Jerry Steiner, pulled to-
gether the effort to place fifth in the '77-
'78 season of the Marion County Bowl-
ing League. The team played at the
Meadows Bowl. Mr. Steiner said of the
team, "Over all we had a pretty good
season, but we just didn't have enough
high average bowlers."

The bowling team consisted of four
teams, with good players such as Tony
Gilbert, Robert McNeil, Bill DeBow,
and James Gruver. Mr. Steiner readily
encouraged any young women at Shor-
tridge to get on the team. There weren't
any special prerequisites. "All you need
is practice and to know how to release
the ball," stated Mr. Steiner.

Although you have to supply your
own equipment and pay the cost per
game, bowling can pay off in the long
run. Bowling is a recreational sport
which can prove to be relaxing.

Tumbling in the morning? The only
tumbling most people do in the morn-
ing is out of bed. This was not enough
for about twenty Shortridgers. Tuesday
through Friday of each week from seven
to eight you could find those students
in the gym with Ms. Sandra Hunt
tumbling away.

Intramural Gymnastics was offered to
anyone interested in developing his or
her skills. Ms. Hunt required all the
cheerleaders to attend at least twice a
week. From forward rolls to aerials, it
all happened in Shortridge's gym.

Long Hard Season for Bat-men

The 1976-77 Blue Devil baseball team
finished a disappointing season with
seven wins and fifteen losses. The Dev-
ils were once again coached by Mr.
John Haynes and Mr. Steve Tolin. This
year's team was hurt by injuries and by
grades, losing no less than five key
players. The teams most valuable player
was Mike Sanders, who played first
base. Sanders and Mark Wallen tied for
batting honors, each hitting .365. Wal-
len, who played shortstop, was the
team's best defensive player. Another
good player for Coach Haynes was Lon-
nie McFarland, a sophomore, who
played right field. Lonnie led the team
in stolen bases with ten in ten attempts.
He also batted .333. Sanders also led the
team in homeruns with four, and runs
batted in with sixteen. Coach Haynes is
looking forward to next season as his
team was able to score, but not able to
stop the other team from scoring. They
lost games by scores of 12-8 Cathedral,
13-7 Ben Davis, 10-9 Tech.

There are many new faces at Short-
ridge, ranging from freshmen, to se7
niors, to teachers. All these new faces
brought in many new and different
ideas adding variety to Shortridge."

The Shortridge family is growing and
expanding. With students transferring
from private and parochial schools, the
flavor of this school is changing. There
are no longer riots and gunfights.
Teachers are not afraid to keep their
doors open. Shortridgers are getting
away from the hoodlum society and
moving toward sophistication. This
movement is BUILDING.

ADMINISTRATION
PLANS FUTURE

The main goal of this year's adminis-
tration was to arrange for the renova-
tion and remodeling of Shortridge, the
building. But this in no way meant neg-
lect of the students, the people who use
the building. The big guys may have
been at the top, but they were not out of
reach.

Mr. Benjamin Johnson, Shortridge
principal for five years, is not as for-
midable as his title may imply. He is
never too busy to share a few words
with a distressed student.

Mr. Donald Oldham is vice-president
in charge of budget, building, and
grounds. He has held this position for
five years.

The vice-president in charge of cur-
riculum and supervision is Mr. Donald
King. For the past four years he has had
the frustrating job of scheduling
classes.

The administration is greatly respon-
sible for Shortridge's past success and
they are working now for an even better
future.

it is hard to say good-bye espe- The Blueridge Short Devils: Wahl & Van Horn

cially to tnends you have had tor a o

long time. Shortridge said farewell
to four such friends at the end of
this year. These four teachers de-
cided to retire after long and full ca-
reers: Lucille Wahl — 20 years,
Marie Van Horn — 19 years,
Charles J. Thomas — 16 years, Mar-
ion Moses — 10 years.

The experiences and achieve-
ments of each of these teachers
would fill a book, but for lack of
space the Annual Staff would just
like to express their appreciation
and wish each the best of luck for
years to come.

SENIORS

When the class of '78 entered the portals of Shortridge as
freshmen, an aura of unremitting triumph prevailed. The
class of '78, the largest class in the history of Shortridge,
boasted 600 strong.

Unity, the dominating factor essential to their existence,
bolstered the freshmen of 1974 into a successful high school
career. ^

The spirit of 78 was ignited in '75-76 when the sopho-
more class proved superior in unity during the class spirit
competitions. The importance of the closing of the Water-
gate scandal, the up-coming Bicentennial celebrations, and
peace ringing on the national front aided the wise-fools in
their quest for knowledge and truth.

With the emergence of their junior year, great challenge
came to the spirit of Shortridge; once again the life of the
school was endangered. As detrimental plans were made
for the phasing-out of Shortridge, concerned students, par-
ents and faculty members rallied in support of the perpetual
life of Shortridge. -<#*^

The summer of 1977 proclaimed another victory for Shor-
tridge. IPS awarded the victor approximately $14 million for
the restoration of a school well-loved.

Seniors returned to Shortridge free of anxiety; they were

exuberant. The ceaseless spirit of the class of '78 was once
again evident as the Senior Council made plans for a suc-
cessful year. As seniors grasped the last remnants of their
high school careers, the worst blizzard in history struck
Indiana. A maximum of 22 inches of snow accumulated and
severe temperatures prevailed. Six days of school was lost
as a result, but Shortridgers returned as determined as ever.

In spite of it all, the unity of the class of '78 reached its
maximum as seniors planned the Senior Class Trip (destina-
tion Florida) and graduation ceremonies.

The spirit and unity demonstrated by the class of '78 is
the greatest asset any class could hope to obtain; it has been
the key to much of the seniors' success. The class of '78 has
contributed to Shortridge in various ways. The seniors have
exhibited true loyalty and reverence for Shortridge in hopes
that unity, as they know it, may penetrate the lives of future
Shortridgers.

The Senior Class wishes to acknowledge and thank the
Shortridge administrators for their guidance, support and
patience! In particular, a special thanks to the Senior Class
Sponsors, Mr, Tom Birk and Ms. Jackie Greenwood.

Forever Unity!

The Shortridger is involved in both sides
of the ads-sales game. As the consumer,
he/she has learned to be aware of what is a
bargain and what is a rip-off.. As the sales-
person, the art of persuasion is quite useful.
Sales of candy, Girl Scout cookies,
megaphones, pennants, t-shirts and other
items which appeal to Shortridgers support
activities. By experiencing the parts of both
buyer and seller the student gets a better
view of what is happening and is BUILD-
ING his/her knowledge of the business
world.

Our extra-special thanks to all the editors — the new ones who dove into the work they didn't expect when
they accepted the job, and the experienced editors who returned knowing the responsibility of their posititons.
We appreciate all the help from Mr. Oldham, Ms. Timberman, Mr. Johnson, Mr. King, Mary Howland, and Lee
Wendt. Mr. Grismore, you should get the Typist of the Year Award. We couldn't have made it without the
support of our families and all that we learned from Suzy Dove, Jan Eberle, and Mary Benedict. We also give our
thanks to Mr. Birk who somehow put up with our sanity/madness.

There have been people who talk about the old Shortridge; how much better it
was, and how different it is now. Now there seems to be a movement toward
showing the good of Shortridge and believing that Shortridge has a solid future,
not only within the Shortridge community but also outside of it. The plans for
new facilities and the School of Performing Arts support this belief. Shortridge
will always be a part of us because we have helped with the re-BUILDING of
Shortridge, its reputation, and its future.
