At The Faces I've Been 1) Melanie Mansfield, Cynthia Menlove and coach Jeannie Crickmore sack out on the football field for a well deserved rest during a track meet held at Hillcrest. 2) Arnold 's sock hop , held in the court- yard during Homecoming week , brought a bit of nostalgia to HHS on Gr afitti Day . James Voorhies shakes a leg to the sound of Bill Haley and the Comets. 3) Obviously a Steve Martin fan , senior Kelly Newbold fashions an arrow as he contemplates a Husky touch-down. 4) Studentbody President Verdon Walker shows school spirit as he joins other Husky fans in supporting our football team . 5) Brigadoon included not only drama stu- dents but also choir and dance expertise . 2

The Riddle Of The Sweaty Palms??? What is two feet three inches tall, wears a suit, and has sweaty palms? Give Up? It's a freshman boys asking a girl to dance at the \"Freshman Flirt\". \"Freshman Flirt,\" as the name im- plies is the freshman sponsored dance. It was held on Saturday, Jan- uary sixth at 7:30 and lasted until 10:30 (They had to be home before their curfew). The royalty, which was selected after an assembly put on by the freshmen, was Debbie Judd, Queen Flirt; with Shaleen Johnson and Kathy Uliberri as the attending Flirts. All kidding aside the freshmen did a semi-great job. Debbie Judd after being crowned. The Flirts: Shaleen Johnson, Debbie Judd, and Kathy Ulibern

Senior Snowball Rolls Into Action A visit by Santa Claus, a talent show featuring resourceful Huskies, and the arrival of senior keys began the commencement of the annual senior-hosted dance. The senior dance, formerly called the \"Senior Hop,\" christened the \"Senior Snowball.\" was held De- cember 15. \"Evergreen\" was chosen as the theme song for the Senior formal dance. The band Calcutta provided the music entertainment while Christmas decor emphasized the coming of the holidays and the arri- val of Christmas vacation. Chosen as Snowball royalty were Julie Butterfield , queen; Randy Truji- llo, king; Tracy Pollick, Dave Nichols, Second attendants; Wendy Wood, Kevin Moser first attendants.

Greg Goldson's performance last January at one of the schools daring attempts for a general assembly should have answered any questions a Hillcrest student might have had about 22

Of Gregg Goldston exactly what a mime is. Mr. Goldston, a professional mime for the last ten years and organizer of several mime troops, gave the students of H H S one of the best assemblies the school had ever seen . Even those who were unfa- miliar with the aspects of pantomime were drawn in by the magical spell of the silent man with the white face . Ad- mitting that he'd been very apprehen- sive about his first performance in front of a general assembly of high school students, Goldston was well pleased with the outcome indicating to Mrs. Kastelic that he'd like to return to Hillcrest next year.

Huskies Dribble In A Win 4 24

For The Jug The two big guys stood face to face. They looked at one another trying to anticipate who would '' get it\". The guy in the black and white stripes looked at them, he ne1ther smiled nor frowned. Then it hap- pened: he tossed the ball high into the air and thus began the annual Battle of the Jug between the Big Green and Brighton Bengals. Hillcrest took an early lead and controlled the scoreboard through out the game while Bengal defense fought hard for possesion of the ball. HHS managed to subdue the Ben- gals with a score of 67-59 with sen- ior Bob Keyes being the high scorer with 18 points. The seemingless endless hours of practice and hard work seemed to pay off as once again the Huskies took the Jug. 1. Gene Player attempts to t1p the ball to Husky team mate M1ke Bernardo . 2.

United Peoples Club They came by the numbers . The Seniors came all dressed up ready for any action that might take place. The Juniors came looking for excite- ment to liven up another Saturday night. The Sophomores came with their newly obtained driving permits while others, like the freshmen , came chauffered by big brothers and parents with thoughts of asking 'that girl to dance' running through their minds. You may not have been John Tra- volta, Olivia Newton-John, Disco Danny, or Donna Summers. But Disco Sensation was the place to boogie January 13. The disco dance, organized by the United Peoples Club, hosted ap- proximately 750 enthusiastic danc- ers; making it one of the biggest school activities of the year. The disco was held to promote school spirit, and friendships with other schools that were also invited . Not only was the dance an over- whelming success, the United Peo- ples Club also managed to clear $1000 in funds . 4 26

You think back on all of your previous wins, losses, and ties. Then you think about the days pep assembly and fmally about your match to- night. It's all up to you. Your team has never won it before and your coach has told you since the first of the season that this is his goal. It's time to go. You give a cheer, \"Let's Go Huskies\" like you do at every match, but this time you really mean it. You run out of the locker room, amidst the wild cheers of 4,000 screaming fans, and there, in front of your eyes, you see your goal ... The Axe .\" Hillcrest's 78-79 team worked their hardest but lost again to the defending state championship team. The final score 36-8 didn't show how really close all of the matches were . Our team's only victories over Brighton were Mike Hogenson who tried, and Troy Mann and Frank Mar- elli who won both by decision. What else was there to say except that next year we will have a new axe and a new team and we'll take it! 28

Love Is Such A Beautiful Thing I can see beyond forever Everyth1ng we own will never die Love is such a beautiful thing You make my world a summer day You're just a dream to fade away The theme of the Sophomore Sweetheart's Ball was \"Love is such a beautiful Thing.\" The dance was held in the traditional month of Feb- ruary on the tenth. The group \"Por- trait\" helped set the romant1c mood with the songs they played. Boys went to all sorts of means to ask the girl of their choice such as capturing a girl at her locker and en- ticing her with a luscious candy bar to be his escort for the evening. The dance was very successful as dates came chauffered by parents and big brothers. As the evening came to a close the cherished memories would linger on.

The Wednesday Afternoon \"Bridge Club ~~ On February 22, the BYU Civil En- gineering Department sponsored a Bridge Building contest for creative and constructive Huskies. Thirty- seven such Huskies participated in the competition. Some of the bridges, made mostly of balsa, post- er board and pine, were able to sup- port weight over 1000 pounds. De- pending on the design and care in construction, anywhere from four to twelve hours were spent building the bridges. Mr. LeRoy Soderquist said that there was more student involve- ment this year than in any previous year. Winners of this year's contest were Anita Gonzales; 1st. Byron Nielson; 2nd, Steve Little; 3rd and 4th, and Jim Faber; 5th. Cash prizes being $50.00, $25.00, $20.00, $15.00, and $10.00 respectively were awarded to the winners. 1.

Drill Tearn Wins Its First The drill team of '79 spent an ex- citing four days in Santa Monica, California. They left Friday morning, February 9th, to board the plane that would take them to the \" Miss Drill Team National Competition\". Saturday they performed \"Rio\" at Santa Monica High and were then shuttled to Santa Monica College where they performed their own version of the \" Wiz\" . That evening there was great ex- citement in the Los Angeles Sports Arena where over 6000 girls anx- iously sat waiting to hear the results. When the 1st place in novelty was announced, a tiny scream from the top of the arena was heard . Hillcrest had taken it! They also took 7th place out of 28 in dance precision . On the 11th the drill team cele- brated with a fun day at Disneyland. They returned the next day to an excited welcoming committee of Yearbook, Cheerleaders, families and friends.

Was '79 A Re111ake Of '75? Remember 1975? The year of all of those fantastic disaster movies. Who can forget Airport, Earthquake, Towering Inferno, Poseidon Adven- ture, or even Jaws? All of these mov- ies were great disasters which grossed millions at the box office and now gross us out as reruns on the Sunday Night Movie. Remember 1979? The year of all of those fantastic disasters. Who can forget the Great Flood in C Hall, the Saint Valentine's Day Black-out, the Axe and the Jug, or even the freshman class? 1979, for many, will be remem- bered as the year when few things went right. Pinto owners became frantic whenever anyone came with- in 10 feet of their cars. Explosions set off a chain reaction of panic. One Pinto owner even plastered his car with several \"FLAMMABLE\" stick- ers. Jimmy Carter's popularity took a plunge and he struggled not to be remembered as 'Billy's brother'. And HHS students experienced many disasters. Although some were just reasons for getting out of classes, these disasters soon be- came common place. Fire alarms, floods, and black-outs caused panic in the parking lot as many students rushed out. Fortunately, throughout these disasters, there were no injur- ies as Huskies found new ways to have excused breakfast breaks. Yes, it can be said that 1979 was the year of the disasters. A broken water p1pe 1n C Hall set off a f1re alarm and excused students prematurely from f1rst penod .

Huskie Skiers Shoosh The Ski club found the perfect way to get a school holiday every Wednesday during the winter with- out running the risk of having Mr. Garrison put bamboo shoots under their fingernails. They found a willing adviser and set out to sell ski passes for Solitude every week. Happily their plans worked out with the win- ter weather. Only one week did it snow too much that the club didn't go. Although Ski club has always been popular, this year's 250 plus membership testified to the excel- lence of Utah's snow. The officers were Dave Jackson, president, and Carrie Tetrick, secre- tary /treasurer . Craig Stark was the faculty adviser. 1) Sk1 resorts w1th 100-plus 1nches of snow were a haven for HHS students . 2) Carne Tetnck and Dave Jackson coordi - nated ski activ1t1es and meet1ngs . 3) Cra1g Stark , Sk1 Club adv1ser . 4) H1gh avalanche danger , lines at the l1fts. and blinding storms made skung more chal- lengmg m '79. 38

The Team That Doesn't Everyone at Hillcrest has heard of our football team, basketball team, volleyball team, and all of the other fine sports teams at our school. But there was another team not related to sports that many Hillcrest stu- dents didn't know about-We never heard their meets announced; we never held pep rallies for them and no one put posters in the halls to cheer them on. The funny thing was that this team was one of the most successful the school ever had. Their collection of trophies, cups, and silver plates could match and in most cases out do that of any other teams. The team? DEBATE! The members of this team are extremely dedicated often times came to school early and stayed very late working on the files and their cases in preparation for their tournament most of which are on weekends be- ginning early Saturday mornings and continuing sometimes until mid- 42

Need A Pep Rally n1ght. Two shining examples of the HHS debate team were Marcie Beck and Mike Mcintosh. These two, workmg as a team have achieved state and national honors and in the summer of 1978 went to the Nation- al Tournament in Chicago . They led the HHS team and were an inspira- tion to many. The team worked un- der an excellent new coach, Mark Rasmussen, who had a special abili- ty to create team effort and effec- tiveness . 1) Marc1e Beck and M1chael Mcintosh-one of Hillcrest's lead1ng debate teams hard at work . 2) Brian Jacobs pat1ently listens to h1s oppo- nents' BS . 3) Once aga1n Mcintosh has rendered h1s op- ponent speechless. 43

Disco Fights 1979 found the value of the U.S. dollar at the rock-bottom : 21¢. This inflation (blamed by many on Presi- dent Carter's fiscal policy) hit family budgets, small business, and espe- cially Hillcrest's senior class. In a crunch financially for the bucks to present a senior gift to the school, the seniors arranged for \"BOOGIE NIGHT\" on February 24 for revenue and fun . As usual , the disco concept brought out dancers from neighbor- ing schools and HHS attendance far exceeding usual school dances. On Boogie Night few were found on the sidelines as disco enticed more kids to the dance floor. The dance con- test was won by Brian Bentley and Linda Payne. Even freshmen went to the Sen1or Stomp!

Even though financial pressures and scheduling necessitated cutbacks in music departments in district schools, the Hillcrest High School choral groups under the expert direction of Leo Dean, flourished and grew to new lev- els of quality. The department formed another group, Swing Choir whose members were hand-selected by Mr. Dean. This group performed contem- porary music as opposed to the tradi- tional choir repertoire of Chamber Choir. Through the many performances of these two groups, the community learned of the importance of the school's music program. 46
