We learned that school is really slavery, teaching math and coaching girl's basketball.

After reading 700 pages of Mayer, this world who are willing to give so much for so little, but Paynter, Saxton, Shumsky, Smith, and writing 39 essays, "there goes one now." Thanks, Pat, from all of us. we can honestly say we learned something about history — whether or not we wanted to. Thank you for your effort, pa- tience, and worry. As subbies, we learned "in one swell foop" that it was okay to call him Pat. As freshmen, we pestered him in the hallways in eager anticipation of sophomore "gee-I'm-a- tree." Then, junior year, some of us did well in finite math, but others got "7's." We all loved Pat. He amused us with his wonderfully subtle sense of humor, and he was always willing to help us — even if "90% of what was said was a lie."

Grand Reunion The Grand Reunion reunited many Uni High Graduate's for the first time in our school's history. Over 300 attendants came from as far away as Alaska, Georgia, and Israel, representing the classes from 1924-84. Uni's three Noble Prize laureates spoke, and well-known composers, performers, and a playwright entertained many at a dinner and concert. Mrs. Gutowsky was the main organizer of this very special weekend worth remembering. And remember the time when . PARTY! 13 Dances Dances were hot this year. The DJs were hip and the dancers were smooth. The dances provided exercise for all and served an important social function for underclassmen, all to a unique "Idol-Joel-Duran-Turner- Gabriel" beat. 14 And George makes his move. Halloween Dance. 15 rail Play This year's Fall Play was "The Dining Room" by A.R. Gurney. The play consisted of eighteen separate vignettes-which meant that each cast member played four or five completely different characters! But, all the scenes had one thing in common: they were all about obnoxious, snobby, simple minded, upper class, bourgeois, North- eastern WASPs. Everybody had a lot of fun. "To all of us." The cast and crew: (top row, left to right) Joe Futrelle, Rick Burkhardt, Marc Talbot, Todd Nelson, Eugene Pep- pers, David Han, Tony Chen, (Shamit Kachru), Kristin Siebold; (middle row) Jessica Hymowitz, Anna Friedman, Steve Findley. Beth Rempe, Cynthia Chou, Becky Eades, Kathy Szoke, Tom Pickett, Katy Marino, Richard Yeh, Jennifer Rugg; (seated at table) Monique Brown, Jonathan Fai man , Barbara Maclay, Sheila Findley; (bottom row) Audrey Wells, Lisa Frankenberg, Julie Swadener, Libby Miericke. "The Dining Room" brought out the little children in all of us. Spring Musical This year's Spring Musical was the classic "Oklahoma!" To make the show authentic, the actors and actresses brushed up their country drawl — but good! And after an intense three months of challenging work and superhuman concentration, the cast, crew and directors succeeded in producing a charm- ing performance. Director Audrey Wells, choreographer Ruth Wortis, and musical coordinator Rick Murphy were all given enthusiastic reviews by audience members. In short, the show was a roaring success. Said one prominent local critic: "I laughed until I cried!" "Uhh . what page were we on againin?' John makes a sly proposal Budding romance If the shoe fits . ' ." Swing to the left.

' Boys X-Country This year's x-country team had quite a reputation to live up to. Nobody expected them to go anywhere, with only one top-7 varsity member returning from last year. But by the end of the year, in- dividuals had developed leadership skills and were no longer runn- ing for themselves but for the whole team. This year's did, however, qualify for sectionals — only the fifth time in Uni history. The sup- port the runners received from their fans helped them to finish another successful cross-country season.

They faced several perils at the begin- ning, but soon after there was no stopping them. Fans were awstruck as they won regionals, placed 4th at sectionals and qualified for state, all the time running circles around their competitors.

Break out the Welch's! 25 Swimming Our illustrious women's swim team dominated the waters of Central Illinois. Undaunted by the feeble attempts of Uni rivals such as Olympia, Urbana, and Charleston, the team excelled beyond anyone's wildest aspirations. In addition, many new lllineks joined our team this year-making the largest swim team in the history of University High School.
