The annual publication of the students of Wilson Junior High School, Lethbridge, Alberta. (Volume. 1982-83) "Wilson is one of the better junior highs in the province!" Although Mr. Gowans has only been at our school a short time, his feelings for the school are very positive. Before Mr. Gowans arrived here, he was a principal at Westpark Junior High in Red Deer for s i x years . His first impression of Wilson was a strong staff and student body. He believes that the well developed program in Wilson contributes to the good attitude of the students. He adds that the strong athletic teams help Wilson^ express a tremendous amount of school spirit. Student Council, he feels, has shown much ability and interest in trying to make Wilson the best it's ever been. In the future, Mr. Gowans would like to see an improvement and expansion of the cafeteria, music room and physical education facilities. As our graduating grade nine's leave our school for others, Mr. Gowans gives this message, "I wish the grade nine's all the best in their future endeavors. You are entering some very challenging years." To the grade seven and eights who are returning to WiIson, "Have a good summer holiday. We look forward to seeing you in the faU." . , . , "I would like to express a special thank you to the members of the yearbook staff for the time spent planning, writing, designing and editing this book. Thanks to you!" 2 The 1982-83 Yearbook staff would like to extend our grateful appreciation to the staff and students of Wilson who let themselves be submitted to the horrors of constant harass­ment from our photographers, reporters, and flashbulbs. You all probably thought it was hideous to have your picture taken, but you certainly don't mind seeing it printed in the Yearbook --do you? We'd also like to extend our additional appreciation to Mr. Michelsen and Mr. Hamilton for their contributions to the Yearbook; but the biggest thanks goes to Mrs. Young who supported the students in the class and didn't go crazy in the process - at least, not completely. 3 Jtudent Council Michelsen's Mafia did it again! Roller­skating, dances, a ski trip, a pancake breakfast, and graduation are just some of the activities organized by Student Council under the direction of Mr. Michelsen. Shawn Sakamoto, president of Student Council comments, "It was hard work and demanding, but it was fun and crazy!" Student Council put many hours into organizing and running the activities. Imaginative, colorful and thematic decorations always helped to set the mood of the dances. "This year's council was a highly active group that's done a superlative job. A great deal of individual initiative in determining work to be done and accomplishing it was seen. The Student Council has done a commendable job!" says Mr. Michelsen.

Senior (Bids'’ Mr. Redpath, Ken Londeau, James Anton, Greg Melvin, Kevin Holland, Darren Melrose, John Smith, Mike Trimble, David Kowa 1 "It's the best team 1've ever coached," says Mrs. Delbello, the coach of the Senior Girls' Volleybal1 team. This year they placed first in their league and also fi rst in the ci ty tournament. The Senior Girls' team attended three tournaments this season: The Wilson Invitational Volleyball Tournament, in which they placed second; The Parkside Tournament brought them a first place finish; and the St. Francis Tournament was also won by the team.

Mr. Zaugg commented, "Working with the Jr. Boys this year was LOTS of fun!" Mrs. Steen, the coach of the Jr. Girls' Volley­ball team, described the girls as, "Hard working, friendly people who had really positive attitudes and showed good sportsman­ship." Although the girls did not participate in any out of town tournaments, they did play two games against a Taber team, one of which was held in Taber. Wilson won one of their games against Taber. The team entered the city finals, and after a hard fight, they came out in third pi ace.

He said, "The boys were easy to work with because they worked very hard and tried thei r best. During the season, they finished first in their league and also won the only tournament that they went to at St. Francis Junior High. "It was a very good season," commented Mr. Weitz.

"They improved." There were eleven players on the team and they used rotating captains. The team went to one tournament at St. Francis this year. "During the first part df the year, we were not competitive, but near the end of the year, we gave everyone a good game!" commented Mr. Gowans.

With his leadership, the boys saw many victories in town as well as in Medicine Hat, St. Mary's, Cardston and Red Deer Lake. During the Wilson hosted Invitational Tournament, the Senior Boys fought valiantly but didn't win the final game. Never the less, they gave the spectators and Wilson Junior High a quality of basketball of which we can all be proud.

The last tournament the team atttended was held in Cardston. Here they gave their hosts a good game, and won fi rst pi ace.

In the club, there are fourteen players who are guided by a Dungeon Master. They fight many types of monsters and assorted villains in an attempt to get through the dungeon. Ms. Ichino says that the idea of the game is to bring together a group of people with the same interests. She also adds that the players should be mentally capable of handling the pressures of the game which does, at times, make her sweat. The game itself was invented by Gary Gygax who lives in the United States. Many of the members are avid Science Fiction or Fantasy readers of such books as The Hobbi t, Lord of the R i ngs and The Dune series. One member in particular, David Chomiak, belongs to the Society of Creative Anachronism, a club that reenacts 13th to 15th century battles using authentic armour and padded weapons. The following people are members of the Dungeons and Dragons Club: David Chomiak, Andy Haggard, Stacey Matis, Troy Furukawa, Kelly Johnson, Clayton Stuckert, Dean Fowler, Rick Hiebert, Jeff Parton, Shelley Kruchkywich, B.J. Shaw, Darin Dumontier, Troy Selk, Trevor Venhuis, and Kevin Walker. 60 $ov 6 iris (DnU) Hey girls! Want some new beauty hints? Come to the For Girls Only Club. The For Girls Only Club was started last October by Mrs. Fox and an average of 10 girls show up every meeting. At the meetings, topics such as fashion, make-up personal relations, positive self-image, and etiquette are discussed. The club has had some guest speakers: Sue Koshman, a hair stylist; Mrs. Blair, a cosmetician; and two women for colour coding. There was a fashion show this spring and hopefully there will be two shows next year. "I would like to continue the club next year," concluded Mrs. Fox. Helena Fehr, a member of the club said, "It's a pretty good club and I'll probably go next year." 61 Computer Club The Wilson computer Club is run by none other than Hr. Nelson. The members are divided into two categor- i es--begi nners and advanced. The club meets every Tuesday and Wednesday at noon hour, and has approximately thirty-five students involved. Craig Strutkoff comments, "The club is fun. Mr. Nelson's idea is for us to learn the basics of programming, but we'd rather play and collect games." "It's interesting and challenging to use the computers. It's great!" says Paul Clamp. Another member, Jason Fortney talks about why he joined. "I was interested in learning how to use the computer and its components because I'd like to be a computer programmer when I get older." 62 r l[)ratm Club Ever dream of being the girlfriend of Tom Selleck or of being the cutest guy in Bo Derek's life? One place can make those dreams come t rue! The Drama Club meets Tuesday and Thursday noons and is sponsored by Mrs. Baumback. During meetings, the ten members select plays and rehearse them. A play was presented during Education Week for public viewing. No requirements are needed for students to join the club. One of the activities that the club did was to go on a field trip to the Univers.ity of Lethbridge Drama Department. "Hopefully the Drama Club will continue, next year," remarked Mrs. Baumback. Eddie Sarka, a club member said, "The club is not too bad, and ya I'll go next year." 63 ^riervdk) {rilm^ocietv) Amityville Horror 11, Zapped, Friday the 13th and Freaky Friday were just some of-the films shown this year by the Friendly Film Society. The Film Society is an inexpensive theatre club for the students that is held right in the school. Mr. Stefan shows films from science fiction to fantasy, from musical to mellow shows, and from Farcevto Comedy. The Friendly Film Society started, "Because of the basic desire to improve students' taste in filmstrips by grad­ually exposing them to better films," says Mr. Stefan, the organizer of the society. The films are held at noon hour for 25<; in the Drama room. Due to Mr. Stefan's great imagination in organizing the Film Society, other schools in the city are getting involved in organizing a society such as this in their schools. Another Wi1 son first! 64 /leedlecraft Club m ,He r®ason |,m so enthusiastic about the eedlecraft Club is because the members are mot.vated to learn and do new things," said rs. Zimmerman. The club members do a varietv of projects; afgans, pot holders, cushion tops, rughookings, place mats and table cloths are some of the items made. Many of these projects were exhibited during Education Week. A club member, Myrna dela Cruz said, "In the club we crochet, knit, and embroider. I enj'oy the club; it's good for girls who are creative." "It's a good club, you learn how to do crafts," replied Lisa Potapoff. 65 66Dancer "Mickey", "I Love It Loud", "Goody Two Shoes", and "Mr. Toboto" were some of the tunes that students danced to at the five school dances. The first dance, the Hallowe'en Dance, was attended by vampires, ghouls, and valley girls. On December 10, the Christmas Dance was held under the supervision of Santa and his elves. The Valentine's Day Dance was held on February 11, and was followed by The Last Dance, on Apri1 15- All of the work put into organizing the dances by Student Council, Publicity and Social Committees was worth it when the music started and the movement of dancing feet began. A Rock-a-thon was held to raise money for graduation. Thirty-six couples started and over half made it through the seven hours of continuous dancing. The quick moves of Kurt Georges in team work with Jackie Francis won them the title of the best dancers. The dances were attended by approximately two hundred students. Mr. Stefan concludes "The dances were virtually frenetic, and the decorations were delicious!" Huh?dn&ividualized. (Bnricbment Program The Individual Enrichment Program, otherwise known as I .E .P . , i s a program for advanced students who want to do activ­ities that interest them. Mr. Hami1 ton was the organizer of the program this year. It currently consists of 29 students. One of the things that the students in I . E . P . do is meet i ng people who are presently working in the students' area of interest, for example, during the past year, a student had the opportunity to meet and speak with a psychiatrist. Other interest areas that were explored are computer science, creat i ve wri t i ng, veterinary medicine, and career education in 1 aw. Debbie Gorzi tza states, "It's nice to have a chance to do things that you think are interesting instead of doing things that your teachers think I I are interesting. 69 Che Slickel Carnival CARNIVAL TIME! Marriage Booths! Pillow Fights! Slave Auctions! These all announced the coming of the annual Nickel Carnival, a student and teacher activity that was open to the public. It was held at the beginning of the year as a means of getting the students back into the spirit of school and to get the Grade 7 students involved in school activities. The Nickel Carnival was organized by the Student Council, Mr. Michelsen, and the advisors, who organized a booth for thier houses. Some of the booths organized this year were video games, a fortune teller, the Garfield raffle, and the trampoline. Sandra Brewin, from the Wizards, won the giant Garfield. She said, "It was great to win!" Student and teacher opinions were favourable. Deana McDonald said "All ri ght!" Greg Melvin said, "Fantastic!" Mr. Legg replied, "A good idea, expecially my booth!" 70 "WE'VE GOT SPIRIT, YES WE DO!" The cheerleading squad got together in January to cheerlead for the basketball teams. Because Wilson has the best looking cheerleaders in the city, the players' minds aren't always on the ball. As a result, the basketball teams didn't win the championship games this year. The basketball cheerleaders, under the brilliant coaching of Maxine Holmes, won first place in the cheerleading competi­tion at St. Francis and second at the Wilson Tournament this winter. Maxine says, "The girls were a great bunch to work with and it was fun coaching them!" "Cheerleading was not hard, but we did a lot of practising," replied Julie Polczer. "I think we sparked the teams to many victories this year, and we had a great time doing it!" 71 iattle 100 ]$ikejZ&ce Cheers and exhaustion marked the first school wide co-curricular activity, The Little 100 Bike Race. Many students and the more daring teachers rode at least two laps around the track to earn points for thei r houses. Mrs. Switzer thinks, "It would have been a lot more fun if we had to sit on the bikes backwards." Mr. McHardy replies, "I wish the wheel hadn't been invented!" At the end of many laps, Holly Riehl of the Bandits gasped, "I want to go around again, but my legs are killing me!" Such was the spirit of the dauntless riders of the The Little 100 Bike Race.A sensational new Rock-n-roll band made one of its tirst public appearances at Wilson this spring. Free ck f ta,ented ambers are all from Winston Churchill High School. The members approached Mr. Hamilton who arranged their first practice in December or 382. The following are members of the group: Wesley Inaba, on keyboards; Adrian Kaufman, guitarist vocalist and percussionist; Dave Mills, percuss ionist• Kevin Peterson, vocalist, bass guitar; and Karen Willms, vocalist. The group performed at Wilson on January 31, 1983. Student appreciation was shown by the outbreak of applause, by whistles, and by smiles. Although a few of the teachers would prefer other music, they too enjoyed the performance. Josh Sears commented, "It hurt my ears!" Benita Ayarra replied, "I thought the group was really good. There's more, but you won't be able to print it!" Whatever the opinion, Free Will was an enjoyable surprise and hopefully we'll be able to benefit from other such experiences next year. 73 ■r This year the annual Wilson Student Council ski trip took place on March 19- Although the slopes were a bit icy, every­one had an excellent time. The organizer of the excursion was Tanis Neely, one of^ the grade nine student council representi- tives. Tanis felt, except for a few minor incidents, that everything ran rather smoothly. Approximately thirty-five students attended, and three supervisors were also chosen to accompany the students on the ski trip. These were Mr. Michelsen, Mr. Ramsay and Mr. Redpath. From the excitement generated from the crowd on the bus, it looks as if the annual excursion will be conti nued. 74 LET'S GO TO THE HOP! Some of the many co-curricular activities at Wilson are the Sock Hops. These kS minute dances are held at noon hour on the third Friday of every month. A silver collection is taken at the door to pay for the records used. Mrs. Delbello, the organizer and sponsor of the Sock Hops, usually thinks of a theme to go along with them, such as Green Day, Hat Day, Denim Day, and Western Day. During these forty- five minute dances, you will find people doing a bingo dance, a bunny hop, a bird dance, along with the regular dancing. Sock hops are great fun for swingers! 75 Band It's time to blow our horns'. The grade seven, eight, concert bands, and the jazz ensemble of Wilson have done a great job this year. All bands and many smaller groups and soloists, participated in the Kiwanis Music Festival. The grade nine concert band went on a trip to Red Deer and Calgary for three days, playing concerts and attending festivals. The money for this trip was raised through the spice sale, bake sale, and the cake auction. The bands and jazz ensemble also played at different elementary schools in December and March. The grade seven band went on a band retreat where they practised for hours on end, and had a lot of fun. All groups also played at various times during the year for Wilson school events. Mr. Knights, the director, says, "This has been an exciting and a very successful year. I would like to commend all band students on their effort this year. In particular, I wish every success to the Grade 9 students who are leaving us in June." 76Along with the Choral Music option, Wilson has a Concert Choir of about forty students. During the year, the choir sings and prepares for a number of performances. The Concert Choir sang in two Senior Citizens Homes, in the Lethbridge Centre Mall at Christmas, and during the Remembrance Day Concert. The choir performed in the Annual Kiawanis Music Festival, as well as singing during the final concert of the year. Mr. Knights, the choir and band instruc­tor states, "I like the choir very much. The kids are great and their attitudes towards music are very good." 78 "Oh! Oh! I think I've caught something!" 79 Love at Fi rst Si ght. Ballet -- New Option?
