Wrestlers place last despite win
by David Stradling
The Indian Hill Gators fin-
ished last of ten teams at the
Indian Hill Invitational home
tournament last weekend, with a
meager 34 points. Roger Bacon,
152, Moeller, 150, and Reading,
139, topped the tourney.
The few winning Braves were
Neil Bollinger, Greg McDaniel and
John Nichols. Bollinger won his
first match but did not finish in
the top four of his weight class.
McDaniel finished the same, but
Nichols, who was seeded second,
finished first at 155, after a strong
victory over the first seeded wres-
tler from Bethel-Tate, Sean Orr.
Nichols also amassed more than
one half of the 34 points the
Braves recieved.
Roger Bacon recieved its sec-
ond team victory at the tourney
in three years, while Moeller had
to settle for second after a win
last year. Mark Gruenschlaeger,
the heavyweight from Bacon, was
responsible for Moeller's second
place finish. In the last match of
the tourney, Gruenschlaeger
pinned Dan Wheeler of Anderson
to give Bacon the six points they
needed to win.

JV Braves still searching for first win
by W e Petraglia
The JV Braves had their sights
on their first victory of the year
for a timely Christmas present at
Sycamore, December 18. How-
ever, the Aviators had other
thoughts. With a strong second
half, Sycamore overtook the
Braves, who were leading by one
at the half, to win 46-35.
Mitch Theuring continued his
consistent aggressiveness and led
all scorers, with 17 points. The
tide turned in the Aviators' favor
early in the fourth quarter when a
couple of costly fouls and a tech-
nical foul on Coach Arnold gave
Sycamore the momentum.
Although the official records
will show a Braves' loss for the
game of January 6 against Deer
Park, 46-44, it was definitely a
show of determination by the
Braves to battle back from an
eleven point deficit early in the
fourth quarter. Indian Hill's ef-
fort fell short on a 15-foot jumper
by John Kitei.
Kitei was the game's high
scorer with 15 points, while
Theuring followed with 11 points.

ina they have been gaining

I was pleased," is how Coach Ron
Webber felt about the Gators'
performance. But during Coach
Jim Collins' pep talk Saturday
morning, Collins said some of the
wrestlers were beginning to
"show." That is, beginning to get
confidence and show their ability.
Looking at the scores of this
and past matches, it is easy to see
that the Gators are being carried
by Nichols and McDaniel, at least
point wise. "We expect different
things from them than the rest of
the wrestlers," Webber said.

during the homestretch.
The Braves reversed their
showing against Deer Park by
leading going into the fourth
quarter of their January 8 contest
with Glen Este only to falter in
the fourth quarter. The Braves
were outscored, 20-9, and lost by
a final count of 5 1-43.
As in almost all of the contests
John Kitei finds himself in heavy traffic against Deer Park.

When the varsity squad that
was tested last weekend is looked
at in perspective, it is easy to see
why these two wrestlers create
most of Indian Hill's points.
Nichols and McDaniel are the
only seniors who have wrestled
more than two years and have the
experience needed to wrestle
effectively.
"I hope we are growing,"
Webber said. "Everything we do,
drilling, etc., is for us to grow not
only as wrestlers but as individ-
uals too."
this year, the Braves had two or
three good quarters, but they
could not pull everything to-
gether. As a result, Indian Hill
came up on the short end for the
tenth time without a victory and
fell to 0-5 in league competition.
The squad's two most consis-
tent players, Theuring and Kitei,
had 18 and 13 points respectively.

tournament action.
The Ohio High School Athle-
tic Association recently released
its 1982-1983 classification for
next year's divisions, and since
qualifications are based on this
year, Indian Hill will be eligible
for AA. Indian Hill will be a
strong force in numbers with 343
boys in grades 10-12 in a bracket
ranging from 175-358.
The girls' teams did not have
the same luck. They will remain
competing on the AAA level.
There are 354 girls at Indian Hill,
which misses 349 AA cutoff by
just five.
The classifications for A, AA,
and AAA are divided as evenly as
possible into equal thirds to pro-
vide sectional, district, and state
tournaments with evenly matched
teams. While this breakdown

AAA level contains schools that
have a difference of nearly 1000
boys or girls.
Post-season tournaments have
not been conducive to strong fin-
ishes for Indian Hill in the recent
past. An example of the Braves'

Rick Marshall and John Lilly
head the cast of this year's Drama
Club Forum produetion, The
Devil and Daniel Webster. The
play is to be presented for the
entire school Jan. 27 and later
that night at 8:00 p.m. for the
public.
"The Devil and Daniel Webster
is a play that I've wanted to do
for the past twenty years," stated
Miss Mary Berwanger. "Finally I
have found a cast which is equal
to the challenge."
John Lilly plays the part of
Daniel Webster, the charismatic
orator of the prexivil War era.
"It's going to be really enjoyable
t o portray a real person," said
Lilly. "It's more challenging than
playing a character of some
writer's imagination."
Also in the cast are Mike
Gruber, Suzie Johnson, Lance
Luckey, Todd Cox, Elizabeth
about for years. It will really open
doors. What it means is we can ex-
pect to be a AA powerhouse in
golf." West also believes it will
make qualifying in track "so
much easier" in the spring.
"There is no doubt this will
make our teams more competitive
than in the past," athletic director
Carol Wehmann explained. "It
creates a more equitable situation
even though we have hung in
there well and done an admirable
job at AAA."
Scheduling for the regular sea-
son could possibly be affected by
the change, since coaches have the
option of arranging to play any
level they choose in non-league
contests. Indian Hill will still par-
ticipate in the Eastern HiUs
League and play a full league
schedule. Deer Park, Loveland,
Mariemont, and Madeira will be

will compete at AAA outside of

Converse and Rick Marshall, who
portrays the Devil. "This is my
first play," stated Marshall. "The
play should be an entertaining

The story concerns Jabez
Stone, a poor man from New
Hampshire, who, in a fit of dis-
pair, sells his soul to the Devil so
he can become successful. In no
time at all Jabez turns into a
wealthy politician, with every-
thing going his way. On the day
of his marriage, however, the
Devil comes back to claim his
property, so it's up to Daniel
Webster to win Stone's soul back
in a court room confrontation
with the Devil.

happiness in a simple, domestic
life with Catherine, a widow who
loves him.
Other main characters include
Todd Cox as The Leading Player;
Charlemagne, portrayed by Gus
Gordon; Fastrada, Pippin's step-
mother, played by Kathy Conlon;
and Berthe, played by Becky
Mattox.
The music for "Pippin" is a
mixture of several styles including
rock, traditional Broadway and
jazz piano.
Stevie Rivers returns for her
third year as choreographer for
this mid-70's musical. In addi-
tion, Mr. Steve Strider wiU serve
as technical director along with
Mrs. Shannon as art director and

regulations, and procedures.
To be eligible, the participant
must have at least a C average for
the first three quarters and no
deficiencies in any subjects can be
shown at the beginning of the
fourth quarter. The student must
secure signatures of all fourth
quarter teachers.
The school will discourage the
students taking any A.P. courses,
and students leaving the school
for college courses are not elgible
for Senior Search. Searchers who
exceed their allowed number of
days absence will receive an F for
the program.

will be notified as to their accep-
tance.
The students are responsible
for all contacts in finding their
job, which is not allowed to be

The Braves' next home game is

tant as it is one of just three EHL

would give the Braves a 6-0 record
in the league, and some choice of
playoff opponents.
"Right now, it's almost im-
possible to compete," Coach Dick

schools like Oak Hills. "It wo,uld
be nice if there were maybe five

more teams participate and make

A 1-9 team does not improve
in leaps and bounds. It's g o r e
like skips and hops. Nonetheless,
for the basketball Braves, they are
significant
--a -- - moves.
After dropping their first
eight games, the Braves vented
their frustrations in a fourth quar-
ter scoring barrage to beat Deer
Park. That game was sandwiched
between two strong efforts de-
spite league losses to Sycamore
and Glen Este.
"We just haven't learned how
to win yet," Coach Dale Mc-
Kibben told. "We still have a
struggle to find leadership and we
lack offensive consistency."
McKibben has been singing
that tune all season. In the past
three games, Indian Hill has
scored an average of just 51
points per game while surrender-
ing just 54 points each contest.
In other years, McKibben says,
that would have been a superb de-
fensive effort. Twice the Braves
held the opponent to just 50
points. Once it was good enough
for a 57-50 victory over Deer
Park. In the other game, Indian
Hill was outscored by Glen Este,

Straight program opens in Cincy
This article is the second part of
a series on drug rehabilitation.
by Chris Schmalz
The Cincinnati area became
the fourth location in the country
to receive a Straight program
when a new facility opened on
Wednesday, January 7.
According to Mr. Jay Rush-
ing, the program's director, five
tri-state area youths were moved
from the Straight in St. Peters-
burg to the newly opened one in
Mt. Repose, Ohio. The new facil-
ity's proximity to Cincinnati en-
ables area parents to visit and
work with their children presently
enrolled in Straight. In addition
to the fifty-five tri-state kids from
St. Petersburg, a few new area
"dmggies" have already entered
Straight.
Although presently accomo-
dating roughly sixty people, the
facility may hold up to 125
people in the future. Plans for ad-
ditions to the main building have
already begun, and the facility
may later increase its capacity to
350. Rushing approximated the
facility's final cost at somewhere
near $450,000. He is pleased with
the community's acceptance of
the program and applauds the
media coverage Straight has re-
ceived so far.
Teens attend Straight from
Indian Hill attendance 'definitely best ever'
by John Christine
Why do attendance rates vary
considerably among high schools?
Tom Pflaumer, the pupil person-
nel officer for the Hamilton
Country Board of Education, sees
a direct relationship. "The higher
the socioeconomic conditions, the
higher the attendance."
Indian Hill's daily attendance
averages 96%, higher than Love-
land Hurst High School's approx-
imate 93% but lower than Coun-
try Day's 97%. On the other
hand, Taft High School has only
85% of their student body present
on an average day. Dr. Karl
Feltman regards the percentages
mostly as a measure of "commu-
nity expectations" and a reflec-
tion of "its values of education."
Mr. Wayne Homer, assistant
principal in charge of attendance
at Taft High School feels that
social reasons have the most sig-
nificant effect on attendance.
While most IHers put education
near the top of their list of priori-
ties, some students at Taft can-
not, simply because they are
CHIEFTAIN
nine in the morning until nine at
night. A typical day at Straight is
made up of several "rap sessions"
in which "druggies" discuss such
issues as past drug experiences
and becoming a better individual.
"The group is Straight," Rushing
said. In other words, kids become
straight through these intense talk
sessions. Besides the sessions,
"druggies" also do a lot of sing-
ing. Rushing 'feels that in addition
to being fun, the singing brings
the group closer together.
Another concept at Straight is
"Tough Love," the idea of loving
someone enough to help them
through very difficult experien-
ces. "We're tough on them,"
Rushing admits. If a teen has a
certain problem staff members
will attempt to help them regard-
less of how emotionally painful it
may be.
On the average, it takes eleven
months to complete the entire
Straight program. When teens first
enter Straight it usually takes
them a few days to realize that
they need help. After an accep-
tance of this fact, kids usually
want to stay and be helped.
"We're honest," Rushing states.
"If the kids have problems we let
them know; we don't hide any-
thing from them."
In order for teens to become
forced to live with "adult type
responsibilities." According to
Homer, students enrolled at Taft
skip school in order to take care
of their brothers and sisters, or, in
some cases, their own children.
Mr. Joseph Fulgham, visiting
teacher at Taft, is responsible for
checking the homes of truants
and getting them back in school.
He feels that because most stu-
dents at Taft lack "family stabil-
ity", they don't receive the same
treatment as IHers do. Homer
added that most of Taft's teen-
agers live in single-parent homes.
Homer went on to say that
there is usually no parent at home
during school hours to encourage
their children to be at school.
Then, according to Homer, stu-
dents miss a couple of days and
become discouraged upon re-
turning to find themselves behind
in their school work. As a result,
some students give up attending
school.
Homer expressed concern over
future attendance rates and noted
that although Taft's attendance is
straight they must go through a
process called "seven stepping."
What seven stepping entails is a
series of five phases in which kids
are broken of their past drug
habits.
Phase one begins with "drug-
gies" entering a straight environ-
ment. This environment includes
a new home where the "druggie"
is introduced to another higher
phase person in Straight. This
higher phase person watches over
the "druggie" to ensure that he
does not fall back into his past
drug life. During phase one the
druggie must come to terms
himself. Realization of drug prob-
lems and a positive attitude
toward outside help are essential
to this phase.
In phase two, the kids are re-
established with their families and
taken back home. Parents and
their children must learn t o
get along and restore a family en-
vironment. In phase three, the
person is enrolled into school
or goes back to work.
Starting in phase four, the
person receives days off from the
program and increased leisure
time. Also in this phase, he begins
to make friendships with other
straight people. Phase five is
centered around more time away
from the program and more
increasing, so are college stan-
dards. Students, therefore, may
be more tempted to stay at home.
While Dr. Feltman thinks that
the size of the school is an impor-
tant factor in attendance rates,
Homer sees no relationship.
Feltman argues that, "The smaller
you get, the more personal the
atmosphere and the better the
environment." This theory holds
true at IH where attendance rates
have been increasing in the last
few years, while, at the same
time, enrollment has decreased.
Taft enrolls approximately 750
students in tenth through twelth
grades, while IHs student body is
784, not including 42 vocational
students.
When asked whether lower
attendance rates hinder the edu-
cational process, Mrs. Judy
Deiters, a social studies teacher at
Taft answered, "It does to some
extent. You just have to do the
best you can." On the other
hand, Mrs. J o h n Wund, French
teacher at IH, feels "spoiled",
commenting, "I assume 100%
Page 3
responsiblities in the group
sessions. In this phase, kids
"give back to the program" in the
sense that they add to the group
discussions and attempt to get
others involved in the talks.
Besides breaking druggies of
their drug habits, Straight also
helps to reshape the person as
a whole. Straight teaches kids that
they are important and their peers
should not influence them. A re-
evaluation of morals, along with
self-discipline and respect are also
included. Although Straight does
not specifically teach the belief in
a "supreme being," kids some-
times become reestablished in
their religious beliefs while be-
coming straight.
Mr. Rushing sees no difference
in the time it takes to become
Straight between users of lighter
drugs, such as pot and alcohol,
and a user of hard drugs. How-
ever, he is alarmed with the in-
creased acceptance of and the
myth surrounding marijuana.
"People no longer think it is that
bad to smoke marijuana occasion-
ally." Rushing feels that pot is
just as bad as other drugs. "A
drug is a drug."
The staff includes six former
tri-state "druggies," all of whom
must conform to the program's
rigid standards, which means
using no drugs, including alcohol.
Rushing commented, "Staffers
must talk what they walk."
* * * * *
attendance."
The daily attendance rate at
IH is "definitely the best it's ever
been", according to Mrs. Gail
Nichols, attendance secretary.
In the past, IH attendance
rates haven't been quite as
impressive. In 1978 the average
was 93%. Since then, more stu-
dents have been present each day
in proportion to the declining size
of the student body. In fact,
Feltman believes IH has "maxi-
mized" its attendance.
Nichols attributes the increase
to the new attendance policy that
took effect at the beginning of
the '80-81 school year. Accord-
ing t o this policy, students who

At Taft, Homer is hopeful that

by Todd Cox
Gone With the Wind and Dr.
Zhivago are both epic fdms in
their own right. Likewise, Reds
probably will go down in film-
making history as one of the best
movies of the 1980's. This film
was written, produced, and di-
rected by Warren Beatty, who
also takes the leading role. Beatty
has already made his mark as a
fine actor, but in Reds his prow-
ess as a producer, writer and
director is illustrated.
The movie follows the life of
writer Jack Reed (Beatty). The
movie is told from the viewpoint
of eyewitnesses of the events that
occur. Diane Keaton plays Jack
Reed's companion, who originally
is married to a very conservative
business man. She finds her life
with him unenjoyable and sets
out to do what she really wants to
do, write. She meets Mr. Reed
and asks him for an opinion of
her work. She accompanies Reed
to his office at his home where he
writes for a radical labor newspa-
per which advocates labor reform.
He often leaves her alone with his
friends when he travels to differ-
ent cities to make speeches. She
feels uncomfortable with them
and several times threatens to
leave him.

The message of the movie is
clear-cut and thought-provoking.
Just how important are the causes
we fight for? Where should we
draw the line, and at what ex-
pense? These questions are dis-
cussed near the end of the movie,
as it leads to a shocking, unex-
pected finish.
The only shortcoming of the
movie is the slow development of
the plot. Taps need not take
more that two hours, especially
with the limited area in which the
story takes place-all at the cam-
pus of Bunker Hill.
Otherwise, the problems are
few. Hutton deals with the emo-
tional strain of Moreland's leader-
ship with strength and moving
power. Taps is only half a star
short of superb.

To Mrs. Jean Kern, peoples'
names are special. "I place great
importance on names; they're
what makes us different," she
states. And why wouldn't they
be important? When you process
and deal with as many names as
she has, they're bound to be
special.
Mrs. Kern has been the high

While most students excel in
at least one area, few excel in as
many as Mary Brainard.
At IH Mary has been extreme-
ly involved in sports. She has
been a member of the Varsity
field hockey team for four years.
She was All-League three years
and was voted over-all most valu-
able player of this year's team,
which through much of her talent
and leadership, finished third in
the state. Mary's favorite sport
has been field hockey, yet she has
also greatly enjoyed being a mem-
ber of the basketball and softball
teams. Mary is a guard on the
basketball team and pitcher on
the softball squad, for which
last year she recieved honorable
mention in the EHL.
Mary's dedication to sports
does not stop with her play on
the field hockey, basketball and
softball teams. She also actively
helps others in sports by being an
athletic trainer. "I'm really en-
joying it and having fun - it's great
because I want to be a physical
therapist!" Through Leader
Corps, Mary has continued her in-
volvement in athletics; she has
been the president of Leader
Corps for the past two years.
Even though so much of
Mary's time is occupied by sports,
she has been able to excel in
school in other ways. Mary was
inducted into the National Honor
Society as a junior and became a
peer counselor that same year.
Obviously Mary cares about oth-
ers. "I like it - through helping
myself, I can help others help
themselves."
As if Mary isn't busy enough
in school, she stays active outside
of school as well. She's a golfer, a
tennis player, a bowler, and a di-
ver. Name any sport, Mary plays
it; and she's probably good at it.
Mary also likes to cook but does
not get much opportunity.
Mary's love for sports con-
tinues into her job and summer
activities. On the weekends, she
supervises open gym for winter re-
creation. This past summer, Mary
attended five field hockey camps,
one at which she coached. When
Mary wasn't playing hockey, she
was playing softball. A member
of three different teams, she
played four nights a week.

While many seniors are worry-

no worry for Mary. Colleges are
coming to her. Mary has been
offered many scholarships for
field hockey, but she has had to
limit her choices because of her
career choice. She would like to
be a physical therapist and ath-
letic trainer, so she is now looking
at Ohio State and Ball State, both
of which offer exceptional pro-
grams.
With all her interests and acti-
vities related, Mary really seems
to know what she wants to do
with her life. Her high school
career could not have prepared
her better for the field she hopes
to enter.

works as a window-teller in a

though some might complain
about a job like that, Jeff says,
"A window teller isn't much. But
it's nice to be responsible for the
appearance of the entire bank. I
meet new people, and it's better
than flippin' burgers."
The fact that he meets so
many people each day as a teller
has helped Jeff realize that "Peo-
ple are people, whether they're
young, old, rich poor, hillbillys or
whatever. When you take away
the little material things, everyone
is pretty much the same:"
Such a philosophy as that ob-
viously comes from a person who
is concerned with, and cares
about people. Jeff expressed his
compassion and concern for peo-
ple when he talked about a stop
he and his family made in Haiti
while on a Caribbean cruise.
"Haiti, it's like the picture of an
album cover. It's really different.
The people are just there. Alive,
but barely living. It makes it all
real."

"Reds" rated PC
Chieftain rating: ***
by Todd Cox
Gone With the Wind and Dr.
Zhivago are both epic fdms in
their own right. Likewise, Reds
probably will go down in film-
making history as one of the best
movies of the 1980's. This film
was written, produced, and di-
rected by Warren Beatty, who
also takes the leading role. Beatty
has already made his mark as a
fine actor, but in Reds his prow-
ess as a producer, writer and
director is illustrated.
The movie follows the life of
writer Jack Reed (Beatty). The
movie is told from the viewpoint
of eyewitnesses of the events that
occur. Diane Keaton plays Jack
Reed's companion, who originally
is married to a very conservative
business man. She finds her life
with him unenjoyable and sets
out to do what she really wants to
do, write. She meets Mr. Reed
and asks him for an opinion of
her work. She accompanies Reed
to his office at his home where he
writes for a radical labor newspa-
per which advocates labor reform.
He often leaves her alone with his
friends when he travels to differ-
ent cities to make speeches. She
feels uncomfortable with them
and several times threatens to
leave him.
When the Russian Revolution
begins, Jack sees it as the most
important labor uprising in his-

Expecting Timothy Hutton to
equal his performance in Ordinary
People with that of Taps seems to
be a lot to ask, but he plays his
role in Taps with nearly the same
brilliance.
Hutton carries the bulk of the
screentime opposite George C.
Scott. His role shows his versa-
tility in a dramatically different
story from his 1980 blockbuster.
In Ordinary People, he played
a confused teen who attempted

cause of the Russian laborers and
laborers around the world, he
travels to Russia. By this time,
Beatty and Keaton are married.
She threatens to leave Reed if he
leaves for Russia. Nevertheless,
he does, but soon returns to
America. He attempts to start a
Communist party here and per-
haps start a labor uprising such as
the one in Russia.
Discouraged by the lack of
positive reception of his ideas in

suicide following his brother's
tragic death. In Taps, Hutton
portrays a strong-willed leader of
men. Taps packs a powerful
punch like Ordinary People, as
well as an important message.
Hutton plays Brian Moreland,
the first ranking cadet at Bunker
Hill, a military boarding school.
Colonel Bache (Scott), the
school's commandant, is More-
land's guiding force to save the
school from closing down. Bun-
ker Hill was to be closed after one
year, but following a tragic shoo-

Bache, the school is to cease ope-

important to their cause. Jack's
wife braves great dangers to reach
Russia to be with her husband.
Jack has throughout the movie
been suffering from kidney dis-
ease, and this disease finally kills
him at the end of the movie.
It is important to remember
that this is based on a true story;
Jack Reed actually lived. There-
fore, the romantic, dramatic, and
adventure scenes, even though
enhanced by camera shots and
special effects, actually occurred.
Reds realistically depicts the
American view of the Russian

Guard.
Hutton portrays the despara-
tion of the situation well. The
likelihood of defending the cam-

here is remarkably close to his
role in Ordinaqr People.

The message of the movie is
clear-cut and thought-provoking.
Just how important are the causes
we fight for? Where should we
draw the line, and at what ex-
pense? These questions are dis-
cussed near the end of the movie,
as it leads to a shocking, unex-

The only shortcoming of the

with the limited area in which the

After dropping their first

"We just haven't learned how

McKibben has been singing
that tune all season. In the past
three games, Indian Hill has
scored an average of just 51
points per game while surrender-
ing just 54 points each contest.
In other years, McKibben says,
that would have been a superb de-

for a 57-50 victory over Deer

Straight program opens in Cincy
This article is the second part of
a series on drug rehabilitation.
by Chris Schmalz
The Cincinnati area became
the fourth location in the country
to receive a Straight program
when a new facility opened on
Wednesday, January 7.
According to Mr. Jay Rush-
ing, the program's director, five
tri-state area youths were moved
from the Straight in St. Peters-
burg to the newly opened one in
Mt. Repose, Ohio. The new facil-
ity's proximity to Cincinnati en-
ables area parents to visit and
work with their children presently
enrolled in Straight. In addition
to the fifty-five tri-state kids from
St. Petersburg, a few new area
"dmggies" have already entered
Straight.
Although presently accomo-
dating roughly sixty people, the
facility may hold up to 125
people in the future. Plans for ad-
ditions to the main building have
already begun, and the facility
may later increase its capacity to
350. Rushing approximated the
facility's final cost at somewhere
near $450,000. He is pleased with
the community's acceptance of
the program and applauds the
media coverage Straight has re-
ceived so far.
Teens attend Straight from
Indian Hill attendance 'definitely best ever'
by John Christine
Why do attendance rates vary
considerably among high schools?
Tom Pflaumer, the pupil person-
nel officer for the Hamilton
Country Board of Education, sees
a direct relationship. "The higher
the socioeconomic conditions, the
higher the attendance."
Indian Hill's daily attendance
averages 96%, higher than Love-
land Hurst High School's approx-
imate 93% but lower than Coun-
try Day's 97%. On the other
hand, Taft High School has only
85% of their student body present
on an average day. Dr. Karl
Feltman regards the percentages
mostly as a measure of "commu-
nity expectations" and a reflec-
tion of "its values of education."
Mr. Wayne Homer, assistant
principal in charge of attendance
at Taft High School feels that
social reasons have the most sig-
nificant effect on attendance.
While most IHers put education
near the top of their list of priori-
ties, some students at Taft can-
not, simply because they are
CHIEFTAIN
nine in the morning until nine at
night. A typical day at Straight is
made up of several "rap sessions"
in which "druggies" discuss such
issues as past drug experiences
and becoming a better individual.
"The group is Straight," Rushing
said. In other words, kids become
straight through these intense talk
sessions. Besides the sessions,
"druggies" also do a lot of sing-
ing. Rushing 'feels that in addition
to being fun, the singing brings
the group closer together.
Another concept at Straight is
"Tough Love," the idea of loving
someone enough to help them
through very difficult experien-
ces. "We're tough on them,"
Rushing admits. If a teen has a
certain problem staff members
will attempt to help them regard-
less of how emotionally painful it
may be.
On the average, it takes eleven
months to complete the entire
Straight program. When teens first
enter Straight it usually takes
them a few days to realize that
they need help. After an accep-
tance of this fact, kids usually
want to stay and be helped.
"We're honest," Rushing states.
"If the kids have problems we let
them know; we don't hide any-
thing from them."
In order for teens to become
forced to live with "adult type
responsibilities." According to
Homer, students enrolled at Taft
skip school in order to take care
of their brothers and sisters, or, in
some cases, their own children.
Mr. Joseph Fulgham, visiting
teacher at Taft, is responsible for
checking the homes of truants
and getting them back in school.
He feels that because most stu-
dents at Taft lack "family stabil-
ity", they don't receive the same
treatment as IHers do. Homer
added that most of Taft's teen-
agers live in single-parent homes.
Homer went on to say that
there is usually no parent at home
during school hours to encourage
their children to be at school.
Then, according to Homer, stu-
dents miss a couple of days and
become discouraged upon re-
turning to find themselves behind
in their school work. As a result,
some students give up attending
school.
Homer expressed concern over
future attendance rates and noted
that although Taft's attendance is
straight they must go through a
process called "seven stepping."
What seven stepping entails is a
series of five phases in which kids
are broken of their past drug
habits.
Phase one begins with "drug-
gies" entering a straight environ-
ment. This environment includes
a new home where the "druggie"
is introduced to another higher
phase person in Straight. This
higher phase person watches over
the "druggie" to ensure that he
does not fall back into his past
drug life. During phase one the
druggie must come to terms
himself. Realization of drug prob-
lems and a positive attitude
toward outside help are essential
to this phase.
In phase two, the kids are re-
established with their families and
taken back home. Parents and
their children must learn t o
get along and restore a family en-
vironment. In phase three, the
person is enrolled into school
or goes back to work.
Starting in phase four, the
person receives days off from the
program and increased leisure
time. Also in this phase, he begins
to make friendships with other
straight people. Phase five is
centered around more time away
from the program and more
increasing, so are college stan-
dards. Students, therefore, may
be more tempted to stay at home.
While Dr. Feltman thinks that
the size of the school is an impor-
tant factor in attendance rates,
Homer sees no relationship.
Feltman argues that, "The smaller
you get, the more personal the
atmosphere and the better the
environment." This theory holds
true at IH where attendance rates
have been increasing in the last
few years, while, at the same
time, enrollment has decreased.
Taft enrolls approximately 750
students in tenth through twelth
grades, while IHs student body is
784, not including 42 vocational
students.
When asked whether lower
attendance rates hinder the edu-
cational process, Mrs. Judy
Deiters, a social studies teacher at
Taft answered, "It does to some
extent. You just have to do the
best you can." On the other
hand, Mrs. J o h n Wund, French
teacher at IH, feels "spoiled",
commenting, "I assume 100%

responsiblities in the group
sessions. In this phase, kids
"give back to the program" in the
sense that they add to the group
discussions and attempt to get
others involved in the talks.
Besides breaking druggies of
their drug habits, Straight also
helps to reshape the person as
a whole. Straight teaches kids that
they are important and their peers
should not influence them. A re-
evaluation of morals, along with
self-discipline and respect are also
included. Although Straight does
not specifically teach the belief in
a "supreme being," kids some-
times become reestablished in
their religious beliefs while be-
coming straight.
Mr. Rushing sees no difference
in the time it takes to become
Straight between users of lighter
drugs, such as pot and alcohol,
and a user of hard drugs. How-
ever, he is alarmed with the in-
creased acceptance of and the
myth surrounding marijuana.
"People no longer think it is that
bad to smoke marijuana occasion-
ally." Rushing feels that pot is
just as bad as other drugs. "A
drug is a drug."
The staff includes six former
tri-state "druggies," all of whom
must conform to the program's
rigid standards, which means
using no drugs, including alcohol.
Rushing commented, "Staffers
must talk what they walk."

The daily attendance rate at
IH is "definitely the best it's ever
been", according to Mrs. Gail
Nichols, attendance secretary.
In the past, IH attendance
rates haven't been quite as
impressive. In 1978 the average
was 93%. Since then, more stu-
dents have been present each day
in proportion to the declining size
of the student body. In fact,
Feltman believes IH has "maxi-
mized" its attendance.
Nichols attributes the increase
to the new attendance policy that
took effect at the beginning of
the '80-81 school year. Accord-
ing t o this policy, students who
miss more than five days of a

however, "You have to be realis-

The cast for Pow-Wow '82 was
selected by Mr. Hank Henley, di-
rector and producer of Pow-Wow
1982, last Monday. Seniors Mike
Gruber and Joni Stubbs, both re-
turning for their fourth Bow!
Wow, portray the lead parts of
Pippin and Catherine.
This year's Pow-Wow, "Pip-
pin," is a contemporary musical
in which Pippin, the son of Char-
lernagne, tries to follow in his fa-
ther's footsteps in an attempt to
have a completely fulfilled life.
Pippin t r i ~ smany artificial things
in society, but still unfulfdled, he
realizes that he can only find true
happiness in a simple, domestic
life with Catherine, a widow who
loves him.
Other main characters include
Todd Cox as The Leading Player;
Charlemagne, portrayed by Gus
Gordon; Fastrada, Pippin's step-
mother, played by Kathy Conlon;
and Berthe, played by Becky
Mattox.
The music for "Pippin" is a
mixture of several styles including
rock, traditional Broadway and
jazz piano.
Stevie Rivers returns for her
third year as choreographer for
this mid-70's musical. In addi-
tion, Mr. Steve Strider wiU serve
as technical director along with
Mrs. Shannon as art director and
Miss Mary Berwanger as drama
director.
AFS students
visit Indian Hill
On Friday, January 8, IH
hosted 21 AFS students. During
the day these foreign students
showed slides of their respective
countries in language and history
classes. In addition they held a
combination slide show and talk
session during activity period. On
January 30-3 1, Mariemont High
School will host the AFS Midway
Weekend. Thirty AFS students
will attend in order to discuss
problems and experiences over a
pot luck dinner. During this
weekend, hosts are needed to
accomodate each student. Hosts
are also needed for the '82283
school year AFS program. Any-
one interested in either of these
programs should contact Mrs.
Caroline Berry at 561-4473.
Hooded AFS sweatshirts are still
available for $15.00. Anyone
interested please contact Mr.
Gellert .

Henley descibes "Pippin" as
a "totally new type of theater.
It's a contemporary musical that
will be a great challenge and one
that IH has never seen the likes of
before."
Senior Search applications now

by Mark Aldendifer
Indian Hill's nine week Senior
Search program is getting under-
way in its tenth year.
The program is for Seniors
who wish to spend their last quar-
ter in high school in a job situa-
tion that they would like to pur-
sue in the future. These students
must also meet certain standards,
regulations, and procedures.
To be eligible, the participant
must have at least a C average for
the first three quarters and no
deficiencies in any subjects can be
shown at the beginning of the
fourth quarter. The student must
secure signatures of all fourth
quarter teachers.
The school will discourage the
students taking any A.P. courses,
and students leaving the school
for college courses are not elgible
for Senior Search. Searchers who
exceed their allowed number of
days absence will receive an F for
the program.
The twenty-one American Field Service (AFS) students who visited IH January 8 are: (front row left t o right)

This year's EI-IL Honors Band
presented its annual concert at
Deer Park High School, last Sun-
day. The performance consisted
of three bands, a junior high
band, and two high school bands:
After the application is
acquired from the 'attendance
office, and filled out, it must be
turned in to Mr. Gellert no later
than February 26th. This date is
earlier than last year so the stu-
dents will be motivated to organ-
ize and prepare for the endeavor.
"We look at the application and
decide whether or not it is bene-
ficial to the student," stated MI.
Gellert. On March 12, applicants
will be notified as to their accep-
tance.
The students are responsible
for all contacts in finding their
job, which is not allowed to be
with any member of the student's
immediate family.
Along with this restriction, the
searchers are not allowed to be
paid, and they must report on
their experiences each week and
write a paper based on their ex-
periences over the entire nine
weeks.

Both teams deserve credit,

Bill Walsh took one of the NFL's

Forrest Gregg proved that the
Bengals were much more than

as his team went 12-4. Cris Col-

respectively.
The Braves' next home game is
against Milford Tuesday, January
22. This game is especially impor-
tant as it is one of just three EHL
challenges remaining before the
EHL tournament. A victory
would give the Braves a 6-0 record
in the league, and some choice of
playoff opponents.
"Right now, it's almost im-
possible to compete," Coach Dick
Pfirman said of his girls' basket-
ball team, citing the strength of
schools like Oak Hills. "It wo,uld
be nice if there were maybe five
divisions like football. I don't
know what is so sacred about
three, and I think it would help
more teams participate and make
money."

Wrestlers place last despite win
by David Stradling
The Indian Hill Gators fin-
ished last of ten teams at the
Indian Hill Invitational home
tournament last weekend, with a
meager 34 points. Roger Bacon,
152, Moeller, 150, and Reading,
139, topped the tourney.
The few winning Braves were
Neil Bollinger, Greg McDaniel and
John Nichols. Bollinger won his
first match but did not finish in
the top four of his weight class.
McDaniel finished the same, but
Nichols, who was seeded second,
finished first at 155, after a strong
victory over the first seeded wres-
tler from Bethel-Tate, Sean Orr.
Nichols also amassed more than
one half of the 34 points the
Braves recieved.
Roger Bacon recieved its sec-
ond team victory at the tourney
in three years, while Moeller had
to settle for second after a win
last year. Mark Gruenschlaeger,
the heavyweight from Bacon, was
responsible for Moeller's second
place finish. In the last match of
the tourney, Gruenschlaeger
pinned Dan Wheeler of Anderson
to give Bacon the six points they
needed to win.

by W e Petraglia
The JV Braves had their sights
on their first victory of the year
for a timely Christmas present at
Sycamore, December 18. How-
ever, the Aviators had other
thoughts. With a strong second
half, Sycamore overtook the
Braves, who were leading by one
at the half, to win 46-35.
Mitch Theuring continued his
consistent aggressiveness and led
all scorers, with 17 points. The
tide turned in the Aviators' favor
early in the fourth quarter when a
couple of costly fouls and a tech-
nical foul on Coach Arnold gave
Sycamore the momentum.
Although the official records
will show a Braves' loss for the
game of January 6 against Deer
Park, 46-44, it was definitely a
show of determination by the
Braves to battle back from an
eleven point deficit early in the
fourth quarter. Indian Hill's ef-
fort fell short on a 15-foot jumper
by John Kitei.
Kitei was the game's high
scorer with 15 points, while
Theuring followed with 11 points.

When the varsity squad that
was tested last weekend is looked
at in perspective, it is easy to see
why these two wrestlers create
most of Indian Hill's points.
Nichols and McDaniel are the
only seniors who have wrestled
more than two years and have the
experience needed to wrestle
effectively.
"I hope we are growing,"
Webber said. "Everything we do,
drilling, etc., is for us to grow not
only as wrestlers but as individ-
uals too."
this year, the Braves had two or
three good quarters, but they
could not pull everything to-
gether. As a result, Indian Hill
came up on the short end for the
tenth time without a victory and
fell to 0-5 in league competition.
The squad's two most consis-
tent players, Theuring and Kitei,
had 18 and 13 points respectively.

Boys' sports teams to drop

The Ohio High School Athle-
tic Association recently released
its 1982-1983 classification for
next year's divisions, and since
qualifications are based on this
year, Indian Hill will be eligible
for AA. Indian Hill will be a
strong force in numbers with 343
boys in grades 10-12 in a bracket
ranging from 175-358.
The girls' teams did not have
the same luck. They will remain
competing on the AAA level.
There are 354 girls at Indian Hill,
which misses 349 AA cutoff by
just five.
The classifications for A, AA,
and AAA are divided as evenly as
possible into equal thirds to pro-
vide sectional, district, and state
tournaments with evenly matched
teams. While this breakdown

Post-season tournaments have

Rick Marshall and John Lilly
head the cast of this year's Drama
Club Forum produetion, The
Devil and Daniel Webster. The
play is to be presented for the
entire school Jan. 27 and later
that night at 8:00 p.m. for the
public.
"The Devil and Daniel Webster
is a play that I've wanted to do
for the past twenty years," stated
Miss Mary Berwanger. "Finally I
have found a cast which is equal
to the challenge."
John Lilly plays the part of
Daniel Webster, the charismatic
orator of the prexivil War era.
"It's going to be really enjoyable
t o portray a real person," said
Lilly. "It's more challenging than
playing a character of some
writer's imagination."
Also in the cast are Mike
Gruber, Suzie Johnson, Lance
Luckey, Todd Cox, Elizabeth
about for years. It will really open
doors. What it means is we can ex-
pect to be a AA powerhouse in
golf." West also believes it will
make qualifying in track "so
much easier" in the spring.
"There is no doubt this will
make our teams more competitive
than in the past," athletic director
Carol Wehmann explained. "It
creates a more equitable situation
even though we have hung in
there well and done an admirable
job at AAA."
Scheduling for the regular sea-
son could possibly be affected by
the change, since coaches have the
option of arranging to play any
level they choose in non-league
contests. Indian Hill will still par-
ticipate in the Eastern HiUs
League and play a full league
schedule. Deer Park, Loveland,
Mariemont, and Madeira will be
the EHL's other AA teams while
Sycamore, Glen Este and Milford
will compete at AAA outside of

Converse and Rick Marshall, who
portrays the Devil. "This is my
first play," stated Marshall. "The
play should be an entertaining
production."
The story concerns Jabez
Stone, a poor man from New
Hampshire, who, in a fit of dis-
pair, sells his soul to the Devil so
he can become successful. In no
time at all Jabez turns into a
wealthy politician, with every-
thing going his way. On the day
of his marriage, however, the
Devil comes back to claim his
property, so it's up to Daniel
Webster to win Stone's soul back
in a court room confrontation
with the Devil.

capacities are student director
Jane Lewin, stage manager Stacey
Labahn, technical director Ward
