New 'It's Academic' team
to face Elder and Lakota by John Christine
The IH "It's Academic" team,
sponsored by Mrs. Patricia Con-
nelly , will face Elder and Lakota
in their fnst match tomorrow at 2:30. The match will take place in
the WC ET studio and is scheduled
to be !hown on Channel 48 Sun- day, D !cember 1 lth, at 5 :00.
Andy Bahnfleth, Lawrence Gallant, and John Ries make up this year's team. Roger Geier and $e?2? Hw,o have been selected :rs
alternates. ' The "It's Academic" season
isn't really a "season" according to John Ries. Ries pointed out that the team has to win every game in order to win the .
championship. If the team wins the fust game, they advance to '
the quarter finals. If they succeed there, they enter the semi-finals.
.Only then, if they win, would
they be eligible to compete in the En::?s.
Although none of the players
really specializes in one particular subject, Ries feels that they over-
lap in their knowledge of individ-
ual subjects. He finds the
strengths of the team members lie
in math, In science, preparation and literature. for the
matches, the team has practiced
hour long sessions each week after school. Connelly noted, however
that "on the week of a match we
will practice a lot more."
Connelly also said that each practice is basically run in the
same manner as a real match. The . starting team and two volunteer t ; ~ "-1- .it 3 t :kr; - ~2b:t.s like - i f 7 ..e

In regard to her strategy,
Connelly said, "I take each match as it comes; I take nothing for granted." She went on to
say,"The team will do the very

MU N to debate at Edgecliff NHS conducts 'most successfuI' raffle by Liza Mitchell Pride remains for 1-6 football Braves
by CharIes Wood The Indian Hiu Model United
Nations Club, sponsored by Mr. Nellis, again plans to attend Edge- cliff College for a Model United
Nations simulation.
This year the club is made up of twenty-three students; one of the largest groups Indian Hill has
taken to Edgecliff. The students have been preparing for Edgecliff
since last spring, and this General Assembly will be the first Model U.N. experience some of these students will have had outside of Indian Hill. However, the Edge- cliff U.N. simulation is merely an opportunity for the new students
to get experience in speaking, em- ploying diplomacy and using par- liamentary procedure.
This year Indian Hill is repre- senting six countires from around
the world. In each country, there are three committees; Political
and Security, Economic and Fi- nancial, and Social and Humani-
tarian. The countries which Indi- an Hill is representing are Nigeria,
Algeria, Pakistan, India, Leban- non, and Mexico. The delegation
of Nigeria is composed of Bob
Kindel, John Ries, Alexandra Olenik, and Eveleen Olenik. Rob
Ottenjohn, Lawrence Gallant,
Chris Hug, and Ann Pfau are lead- ing the Algerian delegation. The
country of Pakistan is represented
by Andy Hall, Chip Surkarnp and Diane Remmell. India's delega-
tion is represented by Charles Wood, Bi Skidmore, John Joe-
cken, Karen Everman, and Peter Hug. Rosemary Ward, Jane Lewin, Trip Edwards, and Paul
Smith are leading Lebannon's del- egation; and the delegates for Mexico are Dave Agin, Win Wells, Shannon Meldon, and Dan Kramer.
"This Model United Nations will be a good experience for the new members, and it will help prepare the club for the George- town trip," commented senior
Bob Kindel. Furthermore, the Edgecliff simulation will allow the
new members to see how other schools participate in Model U.N.
Following the Edgecliff Col-
lege trip, the Model United Na- tions club plans to attend the
Dayton University Model U.N. simulation. After attending these
two preliminary simulations, the
members should be quite experi- enced with diplomatic procedure.
Then the club will prepare for the
Georgetown University Model
United Nations in February.
The money raised by NHS wil l pay for pins, cards, and awards
for the new inductees in Novem- ber. Mrs. Ackley plans to offer a scholarship for students if any
money remains after the induc- tion purchases.
Winners of the more coveted
prizes include: Jill Schulman with
the forty dollar Legend adver- tisement; Chris Kelly with the
prom ticket; Jeff Wesselkamper
with the lunch with Mrs. Ackley
and a friend; Mr. Arnold with the free foreign cooking lesson with
Mrs. Connelly; and for the second
year in a row Mrs. Bramkamp won free DECA doughnut each
week for the rest of the year.
by Kurt Dusterberg When a team has lost all five
of its league games and has a 1-6 overall record, the players have to
reach back for something extra,
something to fight for. Such is
the case with the varsity football
squad.
The Braves were the victims of Deer Park's powerful offense,
which ran over Indian Hill, 54-1 2,
one week ago. The last time the
Braves gave up as many points
was 21 years ago in a 72-0 loss to Sycamore. In the last three
games, the Braves have given up
an average of 43 points. Enough
of the grim statistics. So where
do the Braves go from here?
"We're playing on pride," senior quarterback Dave Hancher
said. "We don't even have a
chance of finishing well statisti- cally. But there are a lot of
seniors here who realize they don't have much more time. We just have to do the best we can."
In the loss to Deer Park, the Wildcats racked up 320 yards of offense, and quarterback Mark Harris ran for three touchdowns
while throwing for two others. Indian Hill scored on a one-yard run by Todd Hock and a 28 yard
touchdown pass to Jim Arnold. For Arnold, it was his eighth touchdown of the year.
Offense has not been the
Braves problem all year. Al-
though the Braves have averaged
only 15 points per game, the team has been much more explo-
sive than last year. "In high school ball games, 13
points should be enough to win," explained Hancher. "We have
been playing beatable teams. We
need to work harder on special teams and defensive backs. "
The Braves will take another crack at a league opponent to-
night when they host Milford.
Hancher doesn't feel there has been a letdown at this point. In
fact, he feels Indian Hill may be
more prepared mentally, partly due to the lack of pressure.
There is still time to salvage
something from the season. Junior Kevin McDonald said it best. "Everybody is working for
pride. The coach (Gene Brindise)
National Honor Society con-
ducted its most successful raMe ever according to Mrs. Elizabeth
Ackley, the club's sponsor. The club brought in three hundred
dollars, which is many times more money than made in previous
years. "The advertisement, facul- ty participation, and the original gifts helped make this year's raffle successful," Ackley stated.
Some students went to great lengths to win certain prizes. For example, junior Steve Cogan
bought eighteen dollars worth of tickets in order to drop his lowest
quiz grade in Mr. Wessinger's ge-
ometry class. "I went from a 'D'
to a 'C+'," Cogan surmised.

ing yardage of 1134 yards. He
has completed 79 of 149 passes for a 53% mark, which is up 16%
from last season. Hancher is fourth in passing for points with 64, including ten touchdowns and
a pair of two-point conversions. Arnold is second in the city in
reception yardage with 494 yards from 28 catches for a 17.6 aver-
age. He is 14th in overall scoring,
with eight touchdowns and two
conversions.
IH Band enters KI Invitational by Charles Wood
The Indian Hill Braves March-
ing Band participated in the King's Island Hall of Fame Invitational
at King's Island, Saturday, October 10. The invitational was
a highly competitive marching band contest in which seventeen schools from the Cincinnati area
participated.
The seventeen bands were
separated ino two classes accord- ing to the size of each band: class
A for the smaller bands, and class
AA for the larger bands. The IH
Marching Band is a class A band, and there were seven other bands
in A competition. When the results of the con-
test were determined, the Braves
Marching Band had placed sixth
out of the eight bands in class A competition. However, the Indian Hill percussion section
earned second place. Also, drum majors, John Ries and Scott
Novak, placed fifth, and the In-
dian Hill Flag Corps came in seventh out of the eight Flag
Corps. The band was compli-
mented on its music and playing
ability; however, the judges be-
lieved the consistency of good marching and musical execution
was not above average.
Even though the results of-the
contest were below average, the directors felt the overall outcome was very good. Mr. Snider and Mr. Strider were pleased with the bands ability to compete under
such strict judging standards. In earlier years, the Braves Marching
Band had not participated in contests with as much quality competition as in the King's Is- land Invitational. After reviewing
the results, Mr. Snider felt he was
"totally satisfied with the im- provement of the marching
band," and the board should continue to improve and compete.
Along with the band compe- tition, the marching band has also
participated in a candy sale. The band began their sale last Mon- day, and the band hopes to raise
money in order to pay for some band activities and uniforms.
Despite the Braves' poor re cord this season, Hancher and
Amold have compiled some im- pressive statistics. Hancher placed claim on the city's top spot in
passing this week with total pass-
comeback JV kickers stage strong season by John Christine
The JV soccer Braves boosted In their most recent game,
their record to 4-7-1 by winning they tied Wyoming 2-2 last two and tying one of their last Thursday. Despite their previous
four games. 3-1 loss to the same team, the
Braves seemed confident and
controlled the ball for much of the game. Mitch Theuring scored
the team's first goal in the second
quarter soon after a Wyoming goal. Wyoming scored again in the second half after a communi-
cation breakdown in the IH de- fense. Bill Poffenberger, however, answered with a goal with fifteen
minutes left in the game. Sanjay Datta and Matt Graham helped
the Braves offensive cause in the game.
The Braves lost at Sycamore last Tuesday, 4-2. With the home
field advantage, IH improved the
score from their previous 5-2 de- feat. Theuring scored both goals.
On his second goal he was led
on a fast break by a picture-
perfect pass by Data. Although
the offense was not very pro- ductive, the defensive team was
also partly to blame because of a
lack of communication.
1H won the third game of their
three game winning streak, 5-0,
Tuesday, October 9 against
Maderia.
It was again Mitch Theuring
and company that demolished the
Madeira defense. Meanwhile fullbacks Bill Lange, Greg Morris,
and John Christine shut out the Mustangs' offense. Theuring
chipped in with a hat trick, and
Lange and Poffenberger added
one each. Lange's goal made the win complete when he scored
from the halfback position with
twenty seconds left in the game. The 4-0 win Tuesday, October
6 against New Richmond can be classified as a "Herd and Son's
Game.'' Ron Herd scored all four
goals, while father Richard Herd
was the real hero. He substituted
for Coach Crawford, who could
not attend. Otherwise the Braves would have been forced to forfeit. Ron found the net on three
penalty kicks. The other goal,
however was an unassisted corner
kick which he banana-kicked into
the far side of the net. According
to substitute coach Richard Herd,
the Braves "were playing
kickball" in the first half. Their play improved though, and they
capitalized on the New Richmond mistakes.

The varsity volleyball Squaws
will begin play in the sectional
tournament in hopes of making a strong showing tomorrow at Mid-

The Squaws picked an impres- 1 sive victory before being elimin-

The National Merit Scholar-
ship Corporation named five IH
seniors as commended students in
the 1982 Merit Program. In the hopes of recognizing
"high academic performance,"
the Merit Program has named Indian Hill's commended stu-
dents: John Brumleve, Dan
Fryxell, Michael Gast, Nancy Goldfarb and Michelle Labahn.
The National Merit Scholar- ship Program selects students on
the basis of their PSATINMSQT scores. Students in Ohio whose Selection Index scores (two times
the verbal score plus the mathe- matical score) were between 17 8 and 192 qualify as commended students.
Commended students rank among the top five percent of over one million high school stu-
dents who took the test. The state of Ohio claims 1,599 of the
35,000 commended students.
Squaws were knocked out of the
tournament in the following
round by St. Ursaline.
The Squaws lost in four straight league contests to Mil-
ford, Sycamore, Deer Park and Glen Este. The team lost to Deer -

Anderson nips soccer Squaws rn tourney by Diane Remmell
The soccer Squaws battled the
rain and a tough Anderson and
lost, 3-1, last Saturday in the sec-
tional~.
The Squaws played the
second-ranked Anderson squad
earlier this year and were shut
out, 6-0. The Squaws missed a
chance for a higher ranking be-
cause of a loss to Madeira earlier
in the season. Madeira grabbed
the fourth spot, forcing Indian
Hill to play Anderson.
Despite the loss, coach
McFadden was impressed. "I'm
really proud of the' wa; thg
Squaws played," commented
McFadden. "It's the best game
they've played this season."
Susan Womack pocketed a shot
in the fourth quarter for the lone
Indian Hill score.
The Squaws edged Deer Park,
4-2, October 15, but it was somewhat of a letdown by the
team after an earlier 10-1 win over the same team.
Coach McFadden said, "The
Squaws were not mentally ready
to play. This was one of our
worst games this season."
Womack scored a hat trick and
Birdie Manzler scored one.
The Squaws shifted their
offense into gear against Love-
land, posting a 10-2 win Tuesday,
October 13.
Womack continued her hot
pace, scoring four goals. Lisa
Goldsmith had three, while
Gretchen Wilke added two and
Manzler had one.
In reference to the Squaws'
6-0 loss to Forest Park Monday,
October 12, McFadden said, "I
don't mind the loss so much since
it was a non-league game. In fact,
it was the only game in which I
could change the players around
and try different players in dif-
ferent positions. I took advantage
of the game to try out the new
system we would use against
Anderson."
After losing to Madeira earlier
in the season, the Squaws evened
their season record with a 3-2 vic-
tory, October 8. Womack scored
two goals and Robin Bransom
added the other.
JV hockey Sauaws - -
Hockey tea rn captures league title close seaion '2-3-1'
by Mary Brainard The varsity Squaws clinched
the league title, with a 6-2 win over Talawanda, Tuesday.
The Squaws got off to a slow
start and were leading only 2-1 at
half-time on two goals by Mary
Howe. But with the aid of a pep
talk by Coach Carol Wehmann,
the Squaws attack fired up and
scored two goals within the first
two minutes of the second half.
Two more goals were added in the
half to seal the victory and the
league championship for the first
time in four years. "The Squaws
came back after a poor beginning
to play a super second half,"
Wehmann commented.
Indian Hill played a tough
game Thursday, October 16,
losing 6-0, against Fairmont West.
Although the Squaws lost, they
learned from the experience.
Wehmann said, "The loss was not
due to a lack of skills, but to the
mental attitude."
The Squaws downed Seven
Hills for tile third time in three
tries this season, 4-1, October 12.
The Squaws played much
better in the game than they did
Tuesday, October 6, when they
beat Seven Hills 2-0. The Squaws
also beat another league oppo-
nent, Lebanon, 3-1, on Thursday,
October 8. Wehmann said, "We have won
the league; now we will be
working hard to do well in sec-
tional competition." The district
championships will be held Fri-
day, October 30. The winner will
advance to the state champion-
ships held at Ohio Weslyan,
November 7.
The JV hockey Squaws
ended their season with a 1-1 tie
Tuesday, October 20 against
Talawanda. Amy Albl scored In- .
dian Hill's only goal.
The team suffered a loss to
Fairmont West last Friday. De-
spite the loss, Coach Suzanne
Davis was pleased with the per-
formance, saying, "They really
played an outstanding first half."
Davis is looking forward to
next season after the final 2-3-1
record this year. "They were very
young but they improved tre-
mendously throughout the sea-

other teachers on the basis of her

were judged by the editorial staff

Columbia Universities.
As lead writer for the series,
Mrs. Ackley is in charge of writ-

Where does T.V. come from?
For those who haven't really
thought about it, T.V. must seem
like the product of some nebulous
city which pours out its programs
like manna from heaven. It's dif-
ficult for some to imagine that liv-
ing, breathing human beings cre-
ate the shows which magically
appear on the screen, and even
more difficult for them to believe
that someone whom they might
know is one of the nebulous
forces behind T.V.
Brad Wigor, a member of Indi-
an Hill's class of '73, actually
helps create some of the "manna"
which falls onto our screens every
day. At IH, Brad was president of
Student Council (whose name was
changed to Student Government

for Chieftain, and a star football

retains some of the vestiges of
"preppiness" which go along with
Indian Hill, sits in a big office in

Director of Business Affairs for

produces the much acclaimed
"After School Special" series for

Tahse because of the consistent
quality of the programs they pro-
duce. Even as a member of the
television industry, Brad admits
that many of his colleagues are
"putting out trash." Brad seems
to feel a sincere responsibility to
"put out" quality material be-
cause "media is creating the cul-
ture, not reflecting it, and I think
that the people in charge of the
media are not all that respon-
sible."
So what does this IH graduate
actually do? Recently, Brad com-
pleted his first program at Martin
Tahse as "line producer." As line
producer, Brad is the man who
puts together the various elements
and actually executes the making
of the film. The program, titled
"Tough Girl," will air on October
28 at 4: 30 on channel 12.
I had the honor of previewing
"Tough Girl" recently, and have
nothing but raves for the program
which deals with a girl's problems
with opening herself up and let-
ting people care about her. Over-
all, the acting is quite good and
the theme is easily accessible. But
the most interesting facet of the
, show is the fact that an Indian
Hill graduate had a major role in
its production. It's also nice to
know that in this age of "trash"
programming, someone not only
1 puts quality first, but has the abil-
1 ity to actually produce a quality I product.

by Liza Mitchell
The varsity golf Squaws will
travel to Centerville to play in the
Centerville High School Golf
Tournament Monday. The
Squaws fell to defeat to the same
Centerville team, 227-23 3, Mon- day at Camargo Country Club.
The Squaws ended their reg-
ular season at 11-2 with a strong
second place finish in the Green-
ville tournament. The Squaws
were again defeated by Centerville
by one stroke, 402-403. The
team was lead by medalist Diane
Kohmescher who shot a ten over
par 86.
"I was upset we lost, but I was
very pleased with my score,"
stated senior Sharon Murphy,
after shooting a personal best.
Led by freshman Vera
McVicker, the Squaws defeated
Princeton Monday, October 12 at
Camargo, 224-278.
"I was really surprised to be
medalist, but the only problem is
we will be playing Middletown
next and I have to play against
their number one player," said
McVicker, referring to one of the
two teams that have beaten In-
dian Hill this season.
McVicker pulled through, and
so did the rest of the team to de-
feat Middletown, 185-203, at
Wildwood Country Club in
Middletown. The team was led
by Kohmescher, who fired a three
over par 39. The squad's other scores were
turned in by senior Liza Mitchell
45; senior Shelli Labahn, 55; a
personal best for McVicker, 46;
and another personal best was
turned in by Murphy, 5 5.
for future student protests What happened Friday, October 16? A student
walkout. A statement of student grievances. These are
the natural responses to what changed a carefree,
"Whatcha doing this weekend" Friday into one that
will not soon be forgotten. But what really happened
Friday, October 16? The students began to think.
Wrong. In fact, Friday, October 16 can be remembered
as the day the students forgot to think.
Reviewing the mass of student protestors, one could
see the majority grinning, laughing, and inanely asking
for the "administration's heads." Yet suddenly, as dis-
cipline slips begin circulating, the "unreal" utopia the
circle posed that Friday came crashing down on the
participators in the student walkout. Now, many
walkout protestors can be heard crying,"It was stupid.
Why did I do it?"
Why did you do it? Many students became trapped by what Abbie Hoffman termed "plastic domes."
These "plastic domes" exist when individuals become
so wrapped up in their environments and blind ideals
that they lose sight of reality. The students seemed to
create these "plastic domes" and as often occurs, be-
came ignorant of reason.
The hype and glory of a "radical protest" brought
about this condition. Many protestors became intoxi-
cated with the idea of "protest and revolution" and
thus formed these "plastic domes." Before they knew
it, this excitement was pushing them out the doors.
It would be erroneous to suggest that students did
not have clear and real grievances with the administra-
tion. Furthermore, it would be erroneous to assume
that none of the protestors felt a student walkout was
the means to achieve their ends. Yet, for the majority
present, the "hype", not the grievances, caused their
walking out. It would be nice if man could erase the
blemishes from his history. But he can't. Yet, if he
could, Friday, October 16 would have been just an-
other "I can't wait until 2:30" Friday.
Dear fellow students,
Thinking about last Friday, it
seems that the situation could
have been avoided had the stu-
dents been aware of. the channels
necessary to go through to ex-
press their opinions. When a
student wants to express his
opinions on an issue, he should
speak to one of his class repre-
sentatives. The representative will
in turn come to the presidents of
student government or Mr. Dow-
ling, the SG advisor. We then dis-
cuss the issue with the appropri-
ate committee and find a possible
solution to the problem. With the
proposal in writing, the presi-
dents, the advisor and the com-
mittee chairman present it to the
administration. After this meet-
There has definitely been a
lack of communication between
the students and the representa-
tives. In order to aid this situa-
tion, we plan to have a representa-
tive stationed inside the SSC once
a week during fifth period. This
would be the time for any student
wishing to voice his opinion or
ask questions to do so.
We must remember, however,
that our opinion as students is
only twenty-five percent of thc
total input on any subject. We
can not expect everything to go
in our favor. The faculty, admin-
istration and the community all
have legitimate views too. The
only way to truly make this
school a good environment is to work together. Otherwise, bad

Tennis Squaws to in two sfafe tourneys by Mike Petraglia
The varsity girls' tennis team
captured the district title with a
draining 3-2 win over Centerville
in the finals Monday, October 19.
The 3-2 score was the closest
any team has come to defeating
the Squaws all year. Angela
Farley suffered her first defeat of the year to an old nemesis, Beth
Herr, who is ranked 92nd in the
world in her age group. Wendy
Garfield suffered the other loss at
third singles.
Coach Cindy Crilley is looking
forward to today's action, as the
Squaws advance to state com-
petition. "We're really excited to
see how well we can do at state,"
she said.
The tournament, the Ohio
Coaches Tennis Association
Championship, is the main state
team competition. The Ohio
High School Athletic Association
sponsors the indvidual state
championships, in which Farley
and Lynn Nabors are entered as a
doubles team. The Squaws, who
won the OCTA title last year, will
begin play in that tournament
October 30.
Farley and Nabors have
advanced to the state competition
in the OHSAA in doubles by de-
feating Centerville in the finals of
the district, 6-1, 6-1. To get to the
district finals Farley and Nabors
had to get by Fairmont West and
Northmont. They won both
handily, 6-1, 6-1 and 6-1, 6-3, re-

gles players into a doubles team as

The change of pace offered by
the xeroxed sheet done was not
enough to trigger very many stu-
dents to walk out of sixth period.
The added incentive was the fact
that many students agreed with

hold a walkout. This was enough
to cause many students to part,
for awhile, with their regular day-

Richard Stradling and Rob
McVicker were the first two
Braves to complete the hilly, 2%

Brumleve ran to nineteenth and

third place finish was probably
decided by the squad's fifth man,
Kriss Ashing. In Ashing's final

fifth man to create the two point

Yes - 25% (67) No - 75% (248)

The more common answers were that students did not wish to lose their athletic eligibility, did
not wish to be punished, did not want to miss

curiosity's sake.

Note that in reviewing the response t o question

reason for their unsatisfaction. Thus, the results are not a reflection of one answer being chosen
over the others but rather students were or were
not satisfied with each individual issue.
6. What do you think will result from the walk-
out?
Some of the most common answers as to what
will result from the walkout include: angering the
administration, an administration awareness of stu-
dent grievances, a revoking of student privileges,
issuing of suspensions and detentions, and also the achievement of nothing positive.
walkout have. If those who walked out
had a justifiable personal reason
then they should be punished
but not suspended. Suspension is carrying it too far even though
they have to set an example. * * * *
In the future, people will
think more about what they are
doing instead of just going along
with the crowd. People shouldn't walk out just for the heck of it.
Many people that did walk out
didn't really know why they were there.
* * * * I don't think much will result
from the walkout other than ad-
verse publicity for our school and increased bad feelings between the administration and the stu- dents. I feel that a compromise should have been attempted be-
fore any united school activity was taken. Because change with- out civil action wasn't even at-
tempted I feel that the walkout was simply an example of the im-
patience and immaturity of those
who instigated the walkout. Fur- ther action should only be taken
after an attempt to get the wanted changes is completely
ignored or avoided by the admini-
stration. Then the action is
founded. * * * *
The whole idea of walking out
was counterproductive, not to
mention a contradiction in terms as far as "responsibility" is con-
cerned. It was an irrational act
that should have been thought
through. I'm not saying that there is nothing that could be
changed here, but an alternate
proposal of some kind should have been offered to the admini-
tration. * * * *
A few people staged the walk-
out and the rest followed blindly. The walkout- showed the lack of
thought and responsibility on the
part of those students who parti- .
cipated. * * * *
Students have no right to rebel against the administration.
We are here to learn - not to have everything perfect according to
what students think. It was use- less, obnoxious and socially un- acceptable.

sponse from students, faculty, or

Thinking back to the eighth
grade days spent in the junior
high, I remember looking forward
to fourth period. Why? Because
fourth period meant Mrs.
Morgan's English class, and Mrs.
Morgan's English classes meant a
class with a relaxed atmosphere.
Mrs. Morgan's eighth grade
English class was a fun experi-
ence, and many IHers are ex-
periencing a 'deja-vu'. Many stu-
dents who had Mrs. Morgan in
junior high now have her again,
but things have changed. Besides
a different curriculum in the high
school, Mrs. Morgan splits her
schedule between three different
classrooms which has prevented
her from covering the wall with
studentdrawn cartoons and
pictures. "It's kind of a hind-
erance," she says.
Mrs. Morgan divides her time
between teaching, playing tennis
and boating aboard the JeDo 11, a cruiser kept on the Ohio and
named after Mrs. Morgan and her
husband, Jean and Don. But
when she really feels the need to
totally forget teaching, she reads
cookbooks, bakes bread and reads
the comics, not necessarily at the
same time. The Morgans y e aFo, - -
the owners of an airplane which
they occasionally fly.
"My favorite hobby, though,
is Bobo, my eight-year-old
puppy." Bobo is a seventeen
pound mutt whose favorite
pastime is chasing his tennis ball.
"We kind of taught each other the
game," she joked.
This is Mrs. Morgan's second
year in the high school and she
has successfully made the adjust-
ments. "My methods are still the
same. I make the students use in-
ductive reasoning and I draw from
the eighth grade semantics unit as
much as possible," she said. "My
biggest problem is adjusting to a
more advanced reading material."
MIS. Moragan still teaches two
eighth grade classes.
Mrs. Morgan began her career
in 1965 and joined the Indian Hill
system in 1967. "There was
never any question, I always
wanted to be a teacher," she says.
"My parents will testify to that.
In fact, the first Christmas pre-
sent I asked for was a blackboard,
chalk, eraser and a desk."
Mrs. Morgan chose English be-
cause she was fascinated with the
language. "There is a certain
glamor to the English language.

Bears fan Chris tolerates by Robert Ottenjohn
Mentioning the word "Chi-
cago" or "Notre Dame" is one
way of meeting Chris Schurman,
but the average person does not
even have to exert that much ef-
fort. Since his arrival from the
windy city, Chris has met many
people through his diversified in-
volvement in school organiza-
tions.
The activity that helped Chris
meet many of his friends at first
was football. He thought that being involved was a good idea,
and his continued effort has
earned him a starting spot at ten-
ter. Being on the team has meant
much more to him than just an
average activity, and he empha-
sizes that "football's been great."
Chris is also involved in several
other aspects of sports such as
powder-puff coach. As coach he
states that the seniors will "phys-
ically hurt, mame, and obliterate the juniors." Chris is a member
of the elite BAMF's intramural
basketball team and enjoys skiing
while in New York. Other activi-
ties such as peer counseling and
student government aid in more
personal involvement throughout
the school.
When asked to compare Chica-
go to Cincinnnati, Chris stated,
"The people are really nice down
here, but the two places are dif-
ferent. It's just a matter of the
various things to do." As for
football, "the Chicago Bears are
the best," although he feels that
he has become more tolerant of
the Bengals. Chris is definitely looking for-
ward to college with Notre Dame
his primary choice at this time. Vanderbilt and Ohio State follow
as close second and third choices
respectively. His most desired
field of study is in the area of
chemical engineering, and Chris
hopes eventually to reach the not
at all impossible goal of business
executive.
Whether the subject of discus-
sion is on the elinination of the
junior powder puff team or the
greatness of the Chicago Bears,
Chris Schurman is quick to be
found and ready to defend his
position. Involvent in various ac-
tivities is important to him just as
his plans for college and his fu-
ture.

The landslide favorite of Cin- cinnatians was the prime time

gory. In response to "Dallas,"
NBC has come up with the ulti- mate in family entertainment.
Our new show, "Boise," will be the hottest thing ever to come to prime time since "Hello Larry."
"Boise" is the tawdry story of the
Spuds, their 1200 acre potato farm, their stormy domestic pro- blems, and the glorious city around them. After only a few ep-
isodes you'll be able to answer poignant questions like these. Who will Lola Spud enter the Po-

simple country boy, or Max, the mysterious stranger from town. And what about Dave? Will he become the first Spud child to

Student government shouldn't have to spell out the problems for

neglect of the attitudes of the stu- dents. I wouldn't mind if they
put out a statement of their posi- tion on the matter, even if it en-
forced their present policy, but they ignore the * * * * problem totally.
The administration and some students, especially student gov- ernment members, seem to think the walkout was immature. The protest was very mature. In re-
cent years, the students' idea of a protest has been vandalism; our protest shows organization, sup- port and forethought.
* * * * A point is desperately trying
to be made - students who have
never done anything against the rules before are now putting
themselves out to prove the in- justice of these new rules and reg-
ulations - I would walk out one thousand times again if I would even think it would help the ad-
ministration realize what they are
doing.

Chieftain walkout poll
1. Did you walk out of your sixth period class
Friday?
Yes - 25% (67) No - 75% (248)
2. Please give reasons why or why not in relation to question 1.
The more common answers were that students did not wish to lose their athletic eligibility, did
not wish to be punished, did not want to miss
class, it would not accomplish anything, and for
curiosity's sake.
3. If you had not had a class or would not have
been penalized would you have walked out? Yes - 71% No - 29%
4. Do you feel a written proposal should have
been proposed to the administration before the 1 walkout?
i Yes - 90% No - 10%
5. Are you unsatisfied with:

students the administration's control over rules 41%

Note that in reviewing the response t o question
5 students were allowed to check more than one
reason for their unsatisfaction. Thus, the results are not a reflection of one answer being chosen
over the others but rather students were or were
not satisfied with each individual issue.
6. What do you think will result from the walk-
out?
Some of the most common answers as to what
will result from the walkout include: angering the
administration, an administration awareness of stu-
dent grievances, a revoking of student privileges,
issuing of suspensions and detentions, and also the achievement of nothing positive.
walkout have. If those who walked out
had a justifiable personal reason
then they should be punished
but not suspended. Suspension is carrying it too far even though
they have to set an example. * * * *
In the future, people will
think more about what they are
doing instead of just going along
with the crowd. People shouldn't walk out just for the heck of it.
Many people that did walk out
didn't really know why they were there.
* * * * I don't think much will result
from the walkout other than ad-
verse publicity for our school and increased bad feelings between the administration and the stu- dents. I feel that a compromise should have been attempted be-
fore any united school activity was taken. Because change with- out civil action wasn't even at-
tempted I feel that the walkout was simply an example of the im-
patience and immaturity of those
who instigated the walkout. Fur- ther action should only be taken
after an attempt to get the wanted changes is completely
ignored or avoided by the admini-
stration. Then the action is
founded. * * * *
The whole idea of walking out
was counterproductive, not to
mention a contradiction in terms as far as "responsibility" is con-
cerned. It was an irrational act
that should have been thought

editori a1 Letter from SG Strong golf Squaws headed for Centerville SG provides . - official channels
by Liza Mitchell
The varsity golf Squaws will
travel to Centerville to play in the
Centerville High School Golf
Tournament Monday. The
Squaws fell to defeat to the same
Centerville team, 227-23 3, Mon- day at Camargo Country Club.
The Squaws ended their reg-
ular season at 11-2 with a strong
second place finish in the Green-
ville tournament. The Squaws
were again defeated by Centerville
by one stroke, 402-403. The
team was lead by medalist Diane
Kohmescher who shot a ten over
par 86.
"I was upset we lost, but I was
very pleased with my score,"
stated senior Sharon Murphy,
after shooting a personal best.
Led by freshman Vera
McVicker, the Squaws defeated
Princeton Monday, October 12 at
Camargo, 224-278.
"I was really surprised to be
medalist, but the only problem is
we will be playing Middletown
next and I have to play against
their number one player," said
McVicker, referring to one of the
two teams that have beaten In-
dian Hill this season.
McVicker pulled through, and
so did the rest of the team to de-
feat Middletown, 185-203, at
Wildwood Country Club in
Middletown. The team was led
by Kohmescher, who fired a three
over par 39. The squad's other scores were
turned in by senior Liza Mitchell
45; senior Shelli Labahn, 55; a
personal best for McVicker, 46;
and another personal best was
turned in by Murphy, 5 5.
for future student protests What happened Friday, October 16? A student
walkout. A statement of student grievances. These are
the natural responses to what changed a carefree,
"Whatcha doing this weekend" Friday into one that
will not soon be forgotten. But what really happened
Friday, October 16? The students began to think.
Wrong. In fact, Friday, October 16 can be remembered
as the day the students forgot to think.
Reviewing the mass of student protestors, one could
see the majority grinning, laughing, and inanely asking
for the "administration's heads." Yet suddenly, as dis-
cipline slips begin circulating, the "unreal" utopia the
circle posed that Friday came crashing down on the
participators in the student walkout. Now, many
walkout protestors can be heard crying,"It was stupid.
Why did I do it?"
Why did you do it? Many students became trapped by what Abbie Hoffman termed "plastic domes."
These "plastic domes" exist when individuals become
so wrapped up in their environments and blind ideals
that they lose sight of reality. The students seemed to
create these "plastic domes" and as often occurs, be-
came ignorant of reason.
The hype and glory of a "radical protest" brought
about this condition. Many protestors became intoxi-
cated with the idea of "protest and revolution" and
thus formed these "plastic domes." Before they knew
it, this excitement was pushing them out the doors.
It would be erroneous to suggest that students did
not have clear and real grievances with the administra-
tion. Furthermore, it would be erroneous to assume
that none of the protestors felt a student walkout was
the means to achieve their ends. Yet, for the majority
present, the "hype", not the grievances, caused their
walking out. It would be nice if man could erase the
blemishes from his history. But he can't. Yet, if he
could, Friday, October 16 would have been just an-
other "I can't wait until 2:30" Friday.
Dear fellow students,
Thinking about last Friday, it
seems that the situation could
have been avoided had the stu-
dents been aware of. the channels
necessary to go through to ex-
press their opinions. When a
student wants to express his
opinions on an issue, he should
speak to one of his class repre-
sentatives. The representative will
in turn come to the presidents of
student government or Mr. Dow-
ling, the SG advisor. We then dis-
cuss the issue with the appropri-
ate committee and find a possible
solution to the problem. With the
proposal in writing, the presi-
dents, the advisor and the com-
mittee chairman present it to the
administration. After this meet-
There has definitely been a
lack of communication between
the students and the representa-
tives. In order to aid this situa-
tion, we plan to have a representa-
tive stationed inside the SSC once
a week during fifth period. This
would be the time for any student
wishing to voice his opinion or
ask questions to do so.
We must remember, however,
that our opinion as students is
only twenty-five percent of thc
total input on any subject. We
can not expect everything to go
in our favor. The faculty, admin-
istration and the community all
have legitimate views too. The
only way to truly make this
school a good environment is to work together. Otherwise, bad

Tennis Squaws to in two sfafe tourneys by Mike Petraglia
The varsity girls' tennis team
captured the district title with a
draining 3-2 win over Centerville
in the finals Monday, October 19.
The 3-2 score was the closest
any team has come to defeating
the Squaws all year. Angela
Farley suffered her first defeat of the year to an old nemesis, Beth
Herr, who is ranked 92nd in the
world in her age group. Wendy
Garfield suffered the other loss at
third singles.
Coach Cindy Crilley is looking
forward to today's action, as the
Squaws advance to state com-
petition. "We're really excited to
see how well we can do at state,"
she said.
The tournament, the Ohio
Coaches Tennis Association
Championship, is the main state
team competition. The Ohio
High School Athletic Association
sponsors the indvidual state
championships, in which Farley
and Lynn Nabors are entered as a
doubles team. The Squaws, who
won the OCTA title last year, will
begin play in that tournament
October 30.
Farley and Nabors have
advanced to the state competition
in the OHSAA in doubles by de-
feating Centerville in the finals of
the district, 6-1, 6-1. To get to the
district finals Farley and Nabors
had to get by Fairmont West and
Northmont. They won both
handily, 6-1, 6-1 and 6-1, 6-3, re-
spec tively . Crilley combined the two sin-
gles players into a doubles team as

Deer Park being the exception. The harriers ended their regu-

won the meet with 42, followed
by the Braves with 59 and Amelia

The squad has jelled in recent

McVicker led the team with third

a big event. The whole school
was excited. Channel 9 was even
here. But why all the excite-
ment? The reasons given for the
walkout do not seem worthy of
such an action. The walkout
itself does not seem to warrant
the commotion caused. There
must have been something else.
School life, especially at
Indian Hill, is difficult. Doing the
same thing every day becomes
out.
The change of pace offered by
the xeroxed sheet done was not
enough to trigger very many stu-
dents to walk out of sixth period.
The added incentive was the fact
that many students agreed with
some or all of the reasons given to
hold a walkout. This was enough
to cause many students to part,
for awhile, with their regular day-
to-day schedule.

Richard Stradling and Rob
McVicker were the first two
Braves to complete the hilly, 2%
mile course at French Park. Strad-
ling finished eleventh at 14: 07
and McVicker came in thirteenth
at 14:40. Marc LeVan and John
Brumleve ran to nineteenth and
twentieth finishes respectively at
15:34 and 15:44. But, the Braves
third place finish was probably
decided by the squad's fifth man,
Kriss Ashing. In Ashing's final
half mile, he overtook Milford's
fifth man to create the two point
margin by which Indian Hill beat
the Eagles.
Sycamore easily took the EHL

another team could finish one.

Anderson nips soccer Squaws rn tourney by Diane Remmell
The soccer Squaws battled the
rain and a tough Anderson and
lost, 3-1, last Saturday in the sec-
tional~.
The Squaws played the
second-ranked Anderson squad
earlier this year and were shut
out, 6-0. The Squaws missed a
chance for a higher ranking be-
cause of a loss to Madeira earlier
in the season. Madeira grabbed
the fourth spot, forcing Indian
Hill to play Anderson.
Despite the loss, coach
McFadden was impressed. "I'm
really proud of the' wa; thg
Squaws played," commented
McFadden. "It's the best game
they've played this season."
Susan Womack pocketed a shot
in the fourth quarter for the lone
Indian Hill score.
The Squaws edged Deer Park,
4-2, October 15, but it was somewhat of a letdown by the
team after an earlier 10-1 win over the same team.
Coach McFadden said, "The
Squaws were not mentally ready
to play. This was one of our
worst games this season."
Womack scored a hat trick and
Birdie Manzler scored one.
The Squaws shifted their
offense into gear against Love-
land, posting a 10-2 win Tuesday,
October 13.
Womack continued her hot
pace, scoring four goals. Lisa
Goldsmith had three, while
Gretchen Wilke added two and
Manzler had one.
In reference to the Squaws'
6-0 loss to Forest Park Monday,
October 12, McFadden said, "I
don't mind the loss so much since
it was a non-league game. In fact,
it was the only game in which I
could change the players around
and try different players in dif-
ferent positions. I took advantage
of the game to try out the new
system we would use against
Anderson."
After losing to Madeira earlier
in the season, the Squaws evened
their season record with a 3-2 vic-
tory, October 8. Womack scored
two goals and Robin Bransom
added the other.
JV hockey Sauaws - -
Hockey tea rn captures league title close seaion '2-3-1'
by Mary Brainard The varsity Squaws clinched
the league title, with a 6-2 win over Talawanda, Tuesday.
The Squaws got off to a slow
start and were leading only 2-1 at
half-time on two goals by Mary
Howe. But with the aid of a pep
talk by Coach Carol Wehmann,
the Squaws attack fired up and
scored two goals within the first
two minutes of the second half.
Two more goals were added in the
half to seal the victory and the
league championship for the first
time in four years. "The Squaws
came back after a poor beginning
to play a super second half,"
Wehmann commented.
Indian Hill played a tough
game Thursday, October 16,
losing 6-0, against Fairmont West.
Although the Squaws lost, they
learned from the experience.
Wehmann said, "The loss was not
due to a lack of skills, but to the
mental attitude."
The Squaws downed Seven
Hills for tile third time in three
tries this season, 4-1, October 12.
The Squaws played much
better in the game than they did
Tuesday, October 6, when they
beat Seven Hills 2-0. The Squaws
also beat another league oppo-
nent, Lebanon, 3-1, on Thursday,
October 8. Wehmann said, "We have won
the league; now we will be
working hard to do well in sec-
tional competition." The district
championships will be held Fri-
day, October 30. The winner will
advance to the state champion-
ships held at Ohio Weslyan,
November 7.
The JV hockey Squaws
ended their season with a 1-1 tie
Tuesday, October 20 against
Talawanda. Amy Albl scored In- .
dian Hill's only goal.
The team suffered a loss to
Fairmont West last Friday. De-
spite the loss, Coach Suzanne
Davis was pleased with the per-
formance, saying, "They really
played an outstanding first half."
Davis is looking forward to
next season after the final 2-3-1
record this year. "They were very
young but they improved tre-
mendously throughout the sea-
son," she said.

Where does T.V. come from?
For those who haven't really
thought about it, T.V. must seem
like the product of some nebulous
city which pours out its programs
like manna from heaven. It's dif-
ficult for some to imagine that liv-
ing, breathing human beings cre-
ate the shows which magically
appear on the screen, and even
more difficult for them to believe
that someone whom they might
know is one of the nebulous
forces behind T.V.
Brad Wigor, a member of Indi-
an Hill's class of '73, actually
helps create some of the "manna"
which falls onto our screens every
day. At IH, Brad was president of
Student Council (whose name was
changed to Student Government

produces the much acclaimed

quality of the programs they pro-
duce. Even as a member of the
television industry, Brad admits
that many of his colleagues are
"putting out trash." Brad seems
to feel a sincere responsibility to
"put out" quality material be-
cause "media is creating the cul-
ture, not reflecting it, and I think
that the people in charge of the
media are not all that respon-
sible."
So what does this IH graduate
actually do? Recently, Brad com-
pleted his first program at Martin
Tahse as "line producer." As line
producer, Brad is the man who
puts together the various elements
and actually executes the making
of the film. The program, titled
"Tough Girl," will air on October
28 at 4: 30 on channel 12.
I had the honor of previewing
"Tough Girl" recently, and have
nothing but raves for the program
which deals with a girl's problems
with opening herself up and let-
ting people care about her. Over-
all, the acting is quite good and
the theme is easily accessible. But
the most interesting facet of the
, show is the fact that an Indian
Hill graduate had a major role in
its production. It's also nice to
know that in this age of "trash"
programming, someone not only

1 ity to actually produce a quality I product.

MU N to debate at Edgecliff NHS conducts 'most successfuI' raffle by Liza Mitchell Pride remains for 1-6 football Braves
by CharIes Wood The Indian Hiu Model United
Nations Club, sponsored by Mr. Nellis, again plans to attend Edge- cliff College for a Model United
Nations simulation.
This year the club is made up of twenty-three students; one of the largest groups Indian Hill has
taken to Edgecliff. The students have been preparing for Edgecliff
since last spring, and this General Assembly will be the first Model U.N. experience some of these students will have had outside of Indian Hill. However, the Edge- cliff U.N. simulation is merely an opportunity for the new students
to get experience in speaking, em- ploying diplomacy and using par- liamentary procedure.
This year Indian Hill is repre- senting six countires from around
the world. In each country, there are three committees; Political
and Security, Economic and Fi- nancial, and Social and Humani-
tarian. The countries which Indi- an Hill is representing are Nigeria,
Algeria, Pakistan, India, Leban- non, and Mexico. The delegation
of Nigeria is composed of Bob
Kindel, John Ries, Alexandra Olenik, and Eveleen Olenik. Rob
Ottenjohn, Lawrence Gallant,
Chris Hug, and Ann Pfau are lead- ing the Algerian delegation. The
country of Pakistan is represented
by Andy Hall, Chip Surkarnp and Diane Remmell. India's delega-
tion is represented by Charles Wood, Bi Skidmore, John Joe-
cken, Karen Everman, and Peter Hug. Rosemary Ward, Jane Lewin, Trip Edwards, and Paul
Smith are leading Lebannon's del- egation; and the delegates for Mexico are Dave Agin, Win Wells, Shannon Meldon, and Dan Kramer.
"This Model United Nations will be a good experience for the new members, and it will help prepare the club for the George- town trip," commented senior
Bob Kindel. Furthermore, the Edgecliff simulation will allow the
new members to see how other schools participate in Model U.N.
Following the Edgecliff Col-
lege trip, the Model United Na- tions club plans to attend the
Dayton University Model U.N. simulation. After attending these
two preliminary simulations, the
members should be quite experi- enced with diplomatic procedure.
Then the club will prepare for the
Georgetown University Model
United Nations in February.
The money raised by NHS wil l pay for pins, cards, and awards
for the new inductees in Novem- ber. Mrs. Ackley plans to offer a scholarship for students if any
money remains after the induc- tion purchases.
Winners of the more coveted
prizes include: Jill Schulman with
the forty dollar Legend adver- tisement; Chris Kelly with the
prom ticket; Jeff Wesselkamper
with the lunch with Mrs. Ackley
and a friend; Mr. Arnold with the free foreign cooking lesson with
Mrs. Connelly; and for the second
year in a row Mrs. Bramkamp won free DECA doughnut each
week for the rest of the year.
by Kurt Dusterberg When a team has lost all five
of its league games and has a 1-6 overall record, the players have to
reach back for something extra,
something to fight for. Such is
the case with the varsity football
squad.
The Braves were the victims of Deer Park's powerful offense,
which ran over Indian Hill, 54-1 2,
one week ago. The last time the
Braves gave up as many points
was 21 years ago in a 72-0 loss to Sycamore. In the last three
games, the Braves have given up
an average of 43 points. Enough
of the grim statistics. So where
do the Braves go from here?
"We're playing on pride," senior quarterback Dave Hancher
said. "We don't even have a
chance of finishing well statisti- cally. But there are a lot of
seniors here who realize they don't have much more time. We just have to do the best we can."
In the loss to Deer Park, the Wildcats racked up 320 yards of offense, and quarterback Mark Harris ran for three touchdowns
while throwing for two others. Indian Hill scored on a one-yard run by Todd Hock and a 28 yard
touchdown pass to Jim Arnold. For Arnold, it was his eighth touchdown of the year.
Offense has not been the
Braves problem all year. Al-
though the Braves have averaged
only 15 points per game, the team has been much more explo-
sive than last year. "In high school ball games, 13
points should be enough to win," explained Hancher. "We have
been playing beatable teams. We
need to work harder on special teams and defensive backs. "
The Braves will take another crack at a league opponent to-
night when they host Milford.
Hancher doesn't feel there has been a letdown at this point. In
fact, he feels Indian Hill may be
more prepared mentally, partly due to the lack of pressure.
There is still time to salvage
something from the season. Junior Kevin McDonald said it best. "Everybody is working for
pride. The coach (Gene Brindise)
National Honor Society con-
ducted its most successful raMe ever according to Mrs. Elizabeth
Ackley, the club's sponsor. The club brought in three hundred
dollars, which is many times more money than made in previous
years. "The advertisement, facul- ty participation, and the original gifts helped make this year's raffle successful," Ackley stated.
Some students went to great lengths to win certain prizes. For example, junior Steve Cogan
bought eighteen dollars worth of tickets in order to drop his lowest
quiz grade in Mr. Wessinger's ge-
ometry class. "I went from a 'D'
to a 'C+'," Cogan surmised.

IH Band enters KI Invitational by Charles Wood
The Indian Hill Braves March-
ing Band participated in the King's Island Hall of Fame Invitational
at King's Island, Saturday, October 10. The invitational was
a highly competitive marching band contest in which seventeen schools from the Cincinnati area
participated.
The seventeen bands were
separated ino two classes accord- ing to the size of each band: class
A for the smaller bands, and class
AA for the larger bands. The IH
Marching Band is a class A band, and there were seven other bands
in A competition. When the results of the con-
test were determined, the Braves
Marching Band had placed sixth
out of the eight bands in class A competition. However, the Indian Hill percussion section
earned second place. Also, drum majors, John Ries and Scott
Novak, placed fifth, and the In-
dian Hill Flag Corps came in seventh out of the eight Flag
Corps. The band was compli-
mented on its music and playing
ability; however, the judges be-
lieved the consistency of good marching and musical execution
was not above average.
Even though the results of-the
contest were below average, the directors felt the overall outcome was very good. Mr. Snider and Mr. Strider were pleased with the bands ability to compete under
such strict judging standards. In earlier years, the Braves Marching
Band had not participated in contests with as much quality competition as in the King's Is- land Invitational. After reviewing
the results, Mr. Snider felt he was
"totally satisfied with the im- provement of the marching
band," and the board should continue to improve and compete.
Along with the band compe- tition, the marching band has also
participated in a candy sale. The band began their sale last Mon- day, and the band hopes to raise
money in order to pay for some band activities and uniforms.
Despite the Braves' poor re cord this season, Hancher and
Amold have compiled some im- pressive statistics. Hancher placed claim on the city's top spot in
passing this week with total pass-
comeback JV kickers stage strong season by John Christine
The JV soccer Braves boosted In their most recent game,
their record to 4-7-1 by winning they tied Wyoming 2-2 last two and tying one of their last Thursday. Despite their previous
four games. 3-1 loss to the same team, the
Braves seemed confident and
controlled the ball for much of the game. Mitch Theuring scored
the team's first goal in the second
quarter soon after a Wyoming goal. Wyoming scored again in the second half after a communi-
cation breakdown in the IH de- fense. Bill Poffenberger, however, answered with a goal with fifteen
minutes left in the game. Sanjay Datta and Matt Graham helped
the Braves offensive cause in the game.
The Braves lost at Sycamore last Tuesday, 4-2. With the home
field advantage, IH improved the
score from their previous 5-2 de- feat. Theuring scored both goals.
On his second goal he was led
on a fast break by a picture-
perfect pass by Data. Although
the offense was not very pro- ductive, the defensive team was
also partly to blame because of a
lack of communication.
1H won the third game of their
three game winning streak, 5-0,
Tuesday, October 9 against
Maderia.
It was again Mitch Theuring
and company that demolished the
Madeira defense. Meanwhile fullbacks Bill Lange, Greg Morris,
and John Christine shut out the Mustangs' offense. Theuring
chipped in with a hat trick, and
Lange and Poffenberger added
one each. Lange's goal made the win complete when he scored
from the halfback position with
twenty seconds left in the game. The 4-0 win Tuesday, October
6 against New Richmond can be classified as a "Herd and Son's
Game.'' Ron Herd scored all four
goals, while father Richard Herd
was the real hero. He substituted
for Coach Crawford, who could
not attend. Otherwise the Braves would have been forced to forfeit. Ron found the net on three
penalty kicks. The other goal,
however was an unassisted corner
kick which he banana-kicked into
the far side of the net. According
to substitute coach Richard Herd,
the Braves "were playing
kickball" in the first half. Their play improved though, and they
capitalized on the New Richmond mistakes.

The varsity volleyball Squaws
will begin play in the sectional

The National Merit Scholar-
ship Corporation named five IH
seniors as commended students in
the 1982 Merit Program. In the hopes of recognizing
"high academic performance,"
the Merit Program has named Indian Hill's commended stu-
dents: John Brumleve, Dan
Fryxell, Michael Gast, Nancy Goldfarb and Michelle Labahn.
The National Merit Scholar- ship Program selects students on
the basis of their PSATINMSQT scores. Students in Ohio whose Selection Index scores (two times
the verbal score plus the mathe- matical score) were between 17 8 and 192 qualify as commended students.
Commended students rank among the top five percent of over one million high school stu-
dents who took the test. The state of Ohio claims 1,599 of the
35,000 commended students.
Squaws were knocked out of the
tournament in the following
round by St. Ursaline.
The Squaws lost in four straight league contests to Mil-
ford, Sycamore, Deer Park and Glen Este. The team lost to Deer -

New 'It's Academic' team
to face Elder and Lakota by John Christine
The IH "It's Academic" team,
sponsored by Mrs. Patricia Con-
nelly , will face Elder and Lakota
in their fnst match tomorrow at 2:30. The match will take place in
the WC ET studio and is scheduled
to be !hown on Channel 48 Sun- day, D !cember 1 lth, at 5 :00.
Andy Bahnfleth, Lawrence Gallant, and John Ries make up this year's team. Roger Geier and $e?2? Hw,o have been selected :rs
alternates. ' The "It's Academic" season
isn't really a "season" according to John Ries. Ries pointed out that the team has to win every game in order to win the .
championship. If the team wins the fust game, they advance to '
the quarter finals. If they succeed there, they enter the semi-finals.
.Only then, if they win, would
they be eligible to compete in the En::?s.
Although none of the players
really specializes in one particular subject, Ries feels that they over-
lap in their knowledge of individ-
ual subjects. He finds the
strengths of the team members lie
in math, In science, preparation and literature. for the
matches, the team has practiced
hour long sessions each week after school. Connelly noted, however
that "on the week of a match we
will practice a lot more."
Connelly also said that each practice is basically run in the
same manner as a real match. The . starting team and two volunteer t ; ~ "-1- .it 3 t :kr; - ~2b:t.s like - i f 7 ..e

In regard to her strategy,
Connelly said, "I take each match as it comes; I take nothing for granted." She went on to
say,"The team will do the very
best i t can and will represent the
school well." In the past, Elder
