As it is for each man, so is it for the students of Austin-East and the school itself. After a summer of divergent deliberation, the fall brought the opening of a new school. Though it was from the union of two old faces, Austin and East, the person- ality, temperament, and physical plan were newly created. This vehicle for education was given the chance to build a new line of direction, goals, and reputation based on the combination and re- generation of ideals belcnging to the past and to the separate schools. Adding to this maze of plans and purposes were the new- comers, faculty and pupils alike. From this beginning, Austin-East students are now given the oppor- tunity to End and form their own yellow brick road to college, to a vocation, or just into life.

The adornment of the traditional cap and gown may seem trite and evoke little emotion, yet it may also bring an inner happiness and perhaps even a muffled sigh of relief that a once distant plateau has finally been reached. ' The goals of any individual or school are tightly wound within his or its direction and desires. To be void of a purpose or plan is to be naked and drifting. For Austin-East an anchor has been pitched, and most students have found berth among its varied fields. Whether a person's niche be found in tailoring or teaching, the school tries to actively enthuse all with the goal of a better life. Shape Every Cobblestone and Crevice df X 7 1 i all ,, as 5 1,.

For them it is the best of times, the worst of times, the spring of hope, and the winter of despair. With them Austin- East has become an identity, without them it would be and mean nothing. Combining Austin with East was not simply a matter of combining projectors, books, tilmstrips, and buildings. It involved thrusting students and faculty of two dif- ferent strands into one main stream. Into this melting pot went the scholars, athletes, homemakers, and mischiefmakersg tall ones, fat ones, white ones and black ones of both schools. True to human nature, common meeting grounds were found and nourished as the tirst year progressed. The inness of Lind- sey's, the constant chatter from the cafe- teria, and even the thundering break be- tween classes all reflect the ties that bound one student with another.

JH l' 1 XXL Of Energy And Drive Spirit is one of the strongest links among Austin-East students. It resounds throughout the gym when the pep band blares out Sunny and induces the rhythmic clapping of a Friday football rally. It appears naturally and unrehearsed when a teammate sinks another ball through the hoop. It even comes forth in the soul movement of a James Brown I'm Black and Fm Proudu button. Like a bottle of disguised Elmer's Glue-All, the contagence of the spirit at Austin-East seems to mend most wounds and to bolster an unbeatable oneness. It spilled over from school to community as food was collected and delivered in the Thanksgiving baskets. The spirit of Christmas emerged as a conglomeration of popcorn, evergreens, and helping hands. But the last minute winning blitz at basketball games was the true proof of this enviable Austin-East enthusiasm. 11 ,J 5 S. One of the often heard cries scorning todayis society is that people are do-nothings who lack vim and vigor in their lives. Most students of Austin-East would be classified far above this category. Ambition and action enter many phases of a studentis life. It takes drive, determination, and a tolerance of grease to become a productive auto mechanic. At the same time a soapy senior car wash demands the desire and work of a whole group to be a successful moneymaking project. Even the jiving soul music of Discoteen prompts the action and energy of youth. This vitality can be traced from gym classes to the sports field. Though this is the first year for Austin-East to be in competition as a new school, it has an amazing heritage from which to draw. This heritage will be complemented by the new action of A-E.

The school was a mirror of excitement for days before it all happened .... the intense excitement reflected by all faces, the anxiety of the five expectant queen candidates, the collecting of penny votes, the anticipation of everyone. Finally the night arrived,and the football team began the celebration appropriately by defeating Evarts, Kentucky, with a score of twenty-six to six. The crowning of the Football Queen by Leontyne Moore, Miss Knoxville College, and the dance which was later held in the queen's honor climaxed the occasion.

Even visitors strolling the halls could not help but feel the season's glow and warmth. A main contributor to this Christmas spirit was the huge, brightly lighted tree heavily laden with homemade ornaments and strings of popcorn. The tree was decorated by Masquers and Thespians. Members of these two groups also erected a display of Santa's sleigh and reindeer on the front ledge of the roof. These figures, which were lighted at night, delighted the entire community. The annex was also wreathed in Christmas revelry. Bulletin boards were made by commercial art students, and a tree was decked by the girls in cosmetology classes. Despite the special yuletide spirit pervading school, everyone welcomed a vacation from labs and lectures. With halls echoing calls of Merry Christmas and waste baskets brimming with discarded wrappings, students and faculty departed for a pleasant 'gtwo weeks out . 18 EY ' lmas in-N ...M 5...

Pausing only for throat lozenges, these songsters rehearsed and rehearsed while awaiting their turns to try out. Tryouts were also temporarily a way of life for seniors who auditioned to be commencement speakers. As speeches were rewritten and redelivered, semi-finalists and finally the four speakers were chosen. Although tryouts were not necessary to get into the Hundred Mile Club, a great deal of running was required. With pride as much motivation as the trophies they received, physical fitness enthusiasts trotted through the minimum thirty-one laps each week. Physical fitness was also one of the four criteria used to select the Danforth I Dare Youl' Award winners. Other considerations were character, mental matu- rity, and social development. Running was a familiar word for another group of winners, too, although their references were to the running of the government. During the summer, Boys' State Representatives met at Cookeville and Girls' State Representatives assembled at Murfreesboro for study and practice sessions designed to impart a better understanding of the functions of a democratic republic. With honors just as varied as hair styles and hangups , student awards present a pleasing patchwork of progress.

Arthur Cannon, Richard Wilson, Sandra DeArmond, Jamesy Anderson, and Patricia Black meet at least once a month with their sponsor, Mr. Honorees Profit From Involvement Invading all phases of student life was a keen competitive spirit. This pride of accomplishment resulted in the winning of many honors by Austin-East students. A parade of winners began with selection of an honorary mayor and judge. While newspapers reported college takeovers, these two boys competed in a city-wide contest for a mayor and a judge to actually Ntake over local government for a day. With boys in full control of things downtown, girls concentrated on power at the home front. Senior girls took an exam based on homemaking aptitude to select Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow. Before tackling the big job of homemaker, some career- minded girls decided to take a fling at the fashion world. Sears and Millers chose two to serve on fashion boards, thus assuring the girls of places on a best dressed list. But behind free clothes and cosmetics were hours of modeling, selling, and serving as chief flunky during Christmas rush. Other students found a niche in the fashion world when they were chosen for an Avon Advisory Panel. Each month they answered a ques- tionnaire on teen-age problems, and they nominated a boy and girl to model in Avon's good grooming posters. After clippings of National Achievement Scholars have yellowed, and mementos of DAR Citizenship Awards have fallen off bedroom bulletin boards, these students will still profit from having taken time to get involved.

Accompanying the five buses along Highway llE were reverberations of students singing Give It Up or Turn It Loosefl Just as the basketball team reluctantly gave up a victory to Riverside, other students almost gave up before they finished a personality inventory for University of Tennessee researchers. While these students were speeding through their tests, the tailoring shopls stuffed turtles were winning in a race for money. Like Aesopis hare, some students waited too late to order and did not get the color turtle they wanted. Color also played an important part in the sidewalk art show. On the campus lawn, art students displayed samples of their skills ranging from painting and stitchery to collages and ceramics. Classroom lectures and homework assignments are educa- tional necessities, but the non-necessities also help instruct Austin-East students. Judith Hyatt and Jacqueline Hawkins sell two of the tailoring shop's sniffed turtles to Willie Willis and Thomas Holloway. 1 4 i 1 i 4.1 X . ,,,, Q ,Q V 'awww-N-7-qpv-.-f ----, -.f- - Q: H, 3 m- r Wi - V f . ? fifygfzf , 5 ' I ,,,, 9 ,,,.,,,,,,A, ,, if 2 M 12 gi .Q 'Q 52 is Brenda Dyer, an office assistant, reported for work one Monday in January, only to discover that during the weekend a burglar had chiseled his way into the schoo1's vault.

Problems Merely Add Zest to Student Life New school, new emblems, new colors- these were chal- lenges facing 1969's seniors. Queries of what to put on the Come See Me Graduate cards were placated by Josten's representatives who came armed with paper samples and design sketches. Art students also ran into problems while making posters of the dribbling Roadrunners. Skip Jackson, offended by too much soul color, had his picture white- washed, and BaBa Jackson wanted his head reduced. Not immune to misfortune-mania were faculty members, While overly active students Hkept the faith on ballgame Fridays, teachers exchanged lt's another one of those days! sighs. Even outsiders occasionally encountered problems at Austin-East. A Saturday night burglar broke into the school vault only to find it empty. Life at Austin-East is only sprinkled with problems, but these vexations are the happenings which add that teasing touch of zest to student life. And then, there were several times when student life was just too much for the weary teachers, including Mr. Ford, to take. 5 n I . n 0 ' STICS SCHOLASTICS SCHC ST CS r qqllllul rg'-M ,n-VFIN f -S ' P4 Im- 'Yzlizf J JUN-54 5 A ll , 44, f -v,:.,. -.qw 'A iii ' ,, 'XX V 8- may- ' went lll if , QW? v f 1 fi , f 4 ,f rf f f My I .f I 2.

Because of the instruction received in class and the experience gained in performances, some band members are able to organize their own atural Talents Besides memorizing formulas, styling hair, drilling grammar, and pounding typewriters, many students also add to their cultural awareness. Enrichment courses such as music, art, home economics, and driver training are available for all Austin-East students who have an interest in them. Daily choir practice may give birth to a future James Brown or Temptations group, while budding Picassos flick paint to the tune of their own individuality. On the homeniaking front, fighting burned biscuits and crooked zippers are two of the main battles that must be faced. By offering something for everyone, be he singer, baker, or canvas painter, Austin-East attempts to capture and stimulate the fancies and talents of all. s Having learned much about dressmaking in her home economics class, Beverly Wilson now enjoys designing and making her own clothes during leisure time. Academic Courses Prepare Students for College The boogaloo, the four corners, and the tighten-up cannot be the only interests of the college-bound student. He must break away from jiving and rapping a line to turn his attentions to more serious matters such as his course of study. While chemistry and physics courses offer future Rutherfords and Einsteins a chance to prove their genius by formulating theories, a geometry or senior math class may unearth a future Pythagoras. With a Hsi, si senorv or a oui, oui madamev or even a et tu, Brutev, other students begin speaking the foreign languages which are often required for college entrance. In addition to these electives, courses in history, government, and English also help prepare those students who plan to continue their education at a college or university. Curtis Tate and Marilyn Wynn find that cardboard geometric figures help them better understand the formulas and problems which they must master in class. The English department's records receive much use as audio-visual assistants Charles McAfee and Charles Edwards will verify. Studying mitotic cell division in an onion root tip is the problem assigned to biology students Arthur Jamison, Clarence Darden, and Eddie Davis. fr' QM' ei ', L. Z.

Every day Wall Street tycoons clock the highs and lows of the stock exchange While specially trained IBM personnel punch the programmed buttons that link manislife to the computer age. Whatever field a person plans to enter after graduation, marketable skills such as typing and shorthand can become his tools of trade. At Austin-East, students Who plan to attend business college or go directly to work after completion of high school are provided with preparation courses such as typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, general business, and distributive education. ln addition to acquiring textbook knowledge, students also may gain practical experience by working in the bank, selling supplies and assisting in the ofice. With such a myriad of skills at their fingertips, students may bring even closer to reality their dreams of becoming prosperous entrepreneurs or dexterous secretaries. r .fi Hoping that her fellow students can read her version, Sandra DeArmond writes a shorthand assignment on the board. 'Ns ocational Shops Gffer Job Training To add to its menu of learning, Austin-East serves a variety of courses in its vocational training program. A new slant to the usual high school curriculum, this program opens many doors for future technicians. After entering the vocational annex, one may go in any direction and find students diversely at work. While the auto mechanics are steeped in the odors of grease, oil, and car parts, the commercial cooking class is surrounded by lingering aromas of the day's diet. The smell of shampoo and creme rinse gives a hint of cosmetology. One may never have heard of building houses or their foundations Within a building, but in the vocational complex many illusions become realities. Mortared hands and fingernails are one of the by4products of brick masonry, While cabinetmaking and electronics produce plans for our tomorrows. With such a myriad of trades from which to choose, Austin-East students are able to prepare for a livelihood, be it commercial art or tailoring. Thus, one of the greatest benefits from the joining of Austin and East is the birth of this vocational program. Tearing down a wall and scraping reusable mortar off the bricks requires cooperation among brick masonry students Louis McClure, Thomas White, James Nance, Anthony Thomas, Charles Lomax, and Larry Glenn. 36 As Norman Clark. Roger Carrington, James Jordan and James Williams wuteli. Thomas Waggener cuts the dough for the eimiamon buns, Mrs. Woods explains to cosmetology students Vivian Hall, Patricia Hatchett, and Reatha Davidson that cutting, cleaning, and styling wigs can be one of the most profitable areas of the beauty profession. Johnny Woodley uses a shaper to run edges on furniture tops. 37 'gym-wr' .4 His previous experience with a vocational curriculum is one of the reasons Mr. W. C.

Hollywood Producers , Should Note Masquers Hollywood producers should take note! The clever plays and skits seen lately at Austin-East are presented by an in-group known as the Masquers. All Masquers are not actors or actresses. Usually unnoticed by the public, many members of this dramatics club work as stage hands, grease paint artists, or wig stylists. However, all the Masquers cooperate with 'the Thespians in doughnut sales which earn money for the plays and for the annual Christmas tree and decorations. Whether behind the scenes or on the stage, these students learn to appreciate good drama while adding to the entertain- ment of their fellow students. rf Wtaafuo we LZ V 4 L , 7 ,,.'

Thespians Create Dramatic Effects A herd of doughnut-eaters stampeding out of Austin-East usually heralds the coming of the Christmas season, and the Christmas work of the Thespians. They sell doughnuts to raise money for the school's Christmas decorations of which they are in charge. The tree is anchored in the lobby and traditionally decorated. With perfection, the outside of the building is framed with lights, and the holiday symbols of Santa Claus and his reindeer are erected on the roof. During the year, Thespian members also participate in the Tennessee Speech and Drama League Contest and the Kingsport Invitational Tournament. Rehearsing for a school play is another activity. Members of the National Thespian Society prove that there is more than one way to have a dramatic effect on school life. Jerry Howerton, James Clark, Thomas Ross.

Honor Society Is For Groovers, Too Members of the National Honor Society are not all book- worms as some may think, but Hgrooversn too! Their activities range from sponsoring a needy child at Christmas time, to presenting assemblies, to giving a dance with the latest sounds. The purpose of N.H.S. is to encourage education and recognition of its merits in the development of the individual's mind and character so that the person is better prepared to serve his community and to perform his civic duties. Those juniors and seniors who have a grade average of 3.2 or better and who are concerned and wish to make Austin-East a finer school comprise the National Honor Society.

These teams consist of seven girls and five boys who bowl each Sunday at Western Plaza. They belong to Knoxville Interscholastic League and American Junior Bowling Congress. Although they have not bowled as long as other teams, they are tops in the B division. Five A-E bowlers entered a no-tap tournament, and Camilla Humphrey received a trophy for the highest game. Larry Goodman has also gained recognition for an outstanding display of skill.

With this and more, Y-Teens has something to offer everyone. The club is sponsored by the Young Womenls Christian Association and strives to develop leadership potential and to influence others toward the Christian way of life. Collecting money for the United Fund, sponsoring a senior citizens' tea, roughing it on the annual camping trip, and swinging out at a winter formal are a few of the frolicking times they have together.

It gives its members a chance to collaborate with fellow clubbists on books, magazine articles, and other literary works.

'6Where is Ronald Ballenger this period?', and Who reported John Tinsley absent?H are typical of the rapid-fire questions office assistants are expected to answer. Although they earn service points for their work, most of X tr'rr these assistants help because of a sincere interest in their school and a feeling of pride which accompanies a responsible position.

There are many varied and useful experiences to be found through student work. Many students work in fields of marketing and distribution which develop leadership proficiency, while others enjoy positions as sales clerks and cashiers at General Products, Milleris, and Sears. Preparing sandwiches at Burger King or Blue Circle is for those who enjoy food, while others get their kicks cutting hair at Central Barber Shop. There is also the field of nursing for those who enjoy caring for others. All of these jobs develop pupils, individual traits and help them plan their futures. For those in DECA, life is not just school days and carefree fun, but work - work which helps these students meet their goals.

Students in vocational and indus- trial co-op classes are eligible for membership in this group which promotes career opportunities and citizenship. While VICA stresses a personis occupational goals, the Hi-Y Club accents a personis spiritual values. Under sponsorship of the YMCA, Hi-Y members regularly attend church services together. Other activities include basketball games with other local Hi-Y groups and annual club trips.

As world, local, and high school happenings magnify, so must the pages of an annual keep pace. Meeting the demands of change, this yearbook unfolds the merger of Austin with Eastg academic with vocational. Boasting a new size and color, the A-E truly presents A Tale of Two Campuses . As students leave Austin-East, their memories are locked in their minds and in their yearbooks. Therefore, this yearbook attempts to capture every mood, fad, fancy, and happening of the past school year. A skimming glance from page to page reveals the medallions, monster shoes, and afro styles, the glory of winning A division championships, the frantic frolic of Class Day, and even the history-making decision of a national election. By trying to grasp forever a small segment of time, the yearbook staff hopes to provide something for everyone, the good times and the bad times of this school year.

Student Council's Thanksgiving assembly was planned by Betty Wiggins and Thomas Ross. Student Council Helps Chart a Clear Course The soulful strut and the slow drag were the order of the night at the Student Council sponsored Christmas dance. In their stocking feet, sequin gowned co-eds celebrated the end of '68 classes by jamming with their turtleneck clad escorts. More serious activities consumed the majority of the Council's time. A very important project was the writing of a new constitution, Responsibility for the Thanksgiving assembly and Awards Day was also assumed by these home group representatives. Although primarily concerned with school problems, the Student Council displayed community concern by netting 576.93 in its United Fund Drive. A new school has unique problems, but the Student Council helped chart a clear course for Austin-East.

Cheerleaders Gain Ideas at Cookeville Clinic Rustling pompoms, clapping hands, and stomping feet echo throughout the gym as Austin-East cheerleaders lead a pep rally. Booster posters, spirit tags, football programs, and homemade cheers reflect these blue and white clad revellers, interest in bringing higher levels of prestige and pride to the school. In all things, excellence comes only through practice. So it is with the rhythms and motions of Victory,' or t'Two Bits . Bi-weekly sessions, aided by ideas gained in the Tennessee Cheerleading Clinic, push the importance of precision, spirit, and the Austin-East cheerleaders, each one of them a hoarse-throated, pompom-shaking, and bobby-socked mirror of the whole school. Various reactions to the football teamls performance are mirrored in the faces of these enthusiastic supporters. 68 Selling school spirit ribbons was one way the cheerleaders earned money for their new uniforms and other expenses. 46? e ,f YQQO r f A, .4 ,L Y ff' Q 4 Q-333' Rhea ssksxms CHEERLEADERS-Front row: Gilda Golightly, Helen Troutman, Ramona Jones.

Encouragement for the team is urged by the cheerleaders, and this assistance is provided by the crowd as the two converge to do the count down of the Great Big Cheer. To get the soul group rocking, the Hey Gang cheer is started by the squad. Cheers and jumps are all most people expect of the cheerleaders, but actually these girls practice strenuously every Wednesday and Thursday. Their keg of enthusiasm is accented even more by projects to raise money for new uniforms and their daily additions to student life. I Q ,I ff... ,own .na U ,V ,X is sf. ..

The only difference is that its demonstrations are in support rather than in protest of the faculty. In April F.T.A. boosts Teacher Appreciation Week and awards a scholarship to a deserving senior member. lf there are any sympathizers for the frustrations and responsibilities of faculty members, they will be found among the ranks of the F.T.A.

Vocalists Rehearse On Stage, In Shower A human voice can produce strange effects. It can soothe and move the soul or make one laugh or cry. The combined voices of students in the Choir and Glee Club create these effects by producing the finest sound in town. The perfect proportion of all tones comes only after hours and hours of practice . . . in the choir room, in the auditorium, and maybe even individually in onels sacred sound-proof shower at home. This brilliant blend of voices is one reason the choir was chosen to sing at the downtown lighting of the Christmas tree. Even for Austin-East students and faculty, great pleasure is derived from hearing the two clubs belt out their melodies in school assemblies. Just as every famous restaurant has a particular specialty, quality music is a distinctive feature of Austin-East. l 1 l l l , First row: Penelope Ballenger, Mary Sheadrick, Valerie Dyer, Deborah Fowler, Stanley Scandrick, Signora Jones, Jervece Leath, Pat Black, Sylvia Boyd.

The band's finger snapping, foot tapping rhythms excite, rather than soothe, even the most serious student. Being a musician is not just a fun thing. Each morning from 8:00 until 10:00, drummers and flutists illustrate the adage, practice makes perfect. Besides executing much musical skill, other goals of the bandls sixty-two members were raising money for new uniforms, equaling Chattanooga Riverside's halftime show, and being invited to the Dogwood Arts Festival band contest. Gaining practice for this contest, the band performed at assemblies and parades. The sounds pouring from Room 134, although occasionally dissonant, are proof that even the obstacles of combining two bands, lacking a director until the last minute, and having a uniform shortage can be overcome by determination and cooperation.

After a wavering one win - one loss beginning, the Austin-East gridironers reeled off seven succes- sive victories for an 8-1 regular season. Limber legged, glue fingered, and swivel hipped, the boys wearing Austin-East jerseys were the first team to score at the annual KFL Jamboree. In the first regular season game, the Clarence Jackson-spiked offense displayed its balanced passing and running attack, but this same eleven could not get going against a determined Oak Ridge team. In the next seven outings the defense showed its stuff by not allowing two teams to hit paydirt and holding four teams to six points. When the last punt was returned and the last TD scored, the team's only real regret was that Walter Jackson had waited until his senior year to embrace the pigskin. nd:-.-... ..f.a....sfLQ:I.L.,.....

In the season opener, the junior gridironers dashed Bearden,s hopes with an 18-7 score. Next, Carter was held scoreless While A-E struck for 18 points. The thud of shoe leather against pigskin and the pop of pad striking pad echoed over the gridiron as Central fell 27-7 and South crumpled 35-14. A 33-18 score sent the Jefferson City boys home with Wait 'till next year despair. Again, spirits soared as the junior varsity capped the season with an 18-O Win over Rule. . j 1969 brings varsity status, and the junior footballers eagerly wait the chance to resume their magic numbers performances. Agility drills are an everyday occurrence on the practice field. The quarter-turn drill develops the quick reactions needed during a game. 1.36 afxqh P VARSITY BASKETBALL TEAM-J. C.

Despite Their Wobbl Start, Roadrunners Come On Strong In spite of the return of only a few lettermen, Austin-East courtmen rallied through their tough basketball season victo- riously. They captured District 6 and Region 2 tournament crowns and advanced to the quarter-finals of the state tournament. Courting the wins were Tyrone Moore and John Tinsley who gained all-tournament team status. Tinsley also ranked highly in statewide recognition. Austin-East lost the first game of the season to South, but took -the second game from Young. When the Roadrunners invaded Chattanooga to take on the Trojans for their third game of the season, they were again beaten, but only to return home and start a winning streak that Austin-East fans will long remember. Speed-shooting andthe running of crip lines in practice kept the Roadrunners on their P's and Q's, enabling them to perform at their best whether they won or lost. The team showed true sportsmanship on the court and . contributed highly to Austin-East's standards. COACHING STAFF: Buren Hall, junior varsity coachg Frank Hall, varsity coach.

Junior Roadrunners Net Winning Season 'tSou1 power struck again and again as the Austin-East junior varsity basketball squad thundered down the court, netting a winning season. - The season opener produced a win over South with a downing score of 49 to 45. From there, the junior Road- runners showed superb confidence on their home court as they changed the Bearden Bulldogs into puppies, victoriously beating them 99 to 44. Even the highlight games with Riverside saw the junior varsity in winning action. The grueling practice sessions paid off for the B-team. The tiring remembrances of lay-up, speed shot, and even rebound exercises could be pushed aside as the junior varsity team paced its way through the season's winning streak. A one point decision to Fulton in a double overtime heart breaker was the only defeat. That old coyote cou1dn't catch the Roadrunner, and neither could the other area ball clubs as the junior hoop stars handily won the Buford Bible B-Team Tournament. ....anhnm..aa. .,... 4.

Three players clamoring for the same small, square base? How about a pop ily turning into a bean ball? At an Austin-East game, fans see some of this, but also lots of homerun action. Although the 1968 season wasn't unmarred by defeat, only three out of the seventeen games could be marked off as losses. The first loss came when Austin-East was pitted against the U.T. Freshmen and came in behind with a score of eight to four. Even the district tournament dealt a mere total of two losing blows out ofthe eight games played. When the diamond dust had settled at the end of the season, the team could proudly herald its fine winning record.

Even if one is a miler, doing twenty 440's one minute apart and then running two miles in distance is hard work. It takes equal amounts of muscle and drive to practice the high hurdles, shot put, discus throw, or pole vault consistently, also. But with steady determination the teams conditioned, conditioned, and re- conditioned until winded puffs gave way to happy victory sighs. When the season was over, both Austin and East, then operating as separate schools, could look back on outstanding individual and team efforts. As East drew laurels for its fourth district and its third consecutive Knoxville lnterscholastic League wins, Austin proudly praised the efforts of its 880 and 440 relay teams. Members of both teams earned much publicity for themselves and their schools by scorin record numbers of points in inter-school meets. Athletes can never be content with past performances, however, and the approaching 1969 season should be a constant conversational topic.

This letter is the status symbol that is always the unspeakable envy of other boys and a sure date catcher with the girls. V To become a letterman, a football or basketball player must play the equivalent of sixteen quarters unless he is injured or shows remarkable spirit and drive. Baseball and track lettermen are chosen according to ability, interest, and attitude. In any case, HUSTLE is the word. A sophomore must be unusually outstanding to warrant receiving a letter, so the coveted jacket and emblem is usually worn by a junior or senior. The boy who wears the A-E letter is indeed proud. His physicalehealth has contributed to the mental health of the entire student body. l l .4 S CLASSES CLASSES CLAS 955 SES CLA ,N AQ Q L f3 '1fm:- 1 Q' P E rl L f f i Vis Q fix , he if 3 :mx Bmw S P if 1 5 :li sf' Q I Q N S 25 P' is Wgfws NK-aw X f SENIOR OFFICERS-First row: Patricia Senter, treasurerg Shirley Barkley, secretaryg Bethel Hendricks, president.
