A Matter of Course Mark Page, deep in thought, listened carefully to Instructions for his Eng- lish 42 paper. Demonstrating the traits of a good typist, Tabitha Clarke kept her eyes on the book, not on the key- board. As teens we spend approximatiey 1 4 of our time In academic activities; there- fore, coming to school each day has become as routine to us as changing our socks (for most that is). We shuffle to each class like haphazardly pro- grammed robots; most rushing to their seats just as the tardy bell releases Its admonishing ring. We sit in each class absorbing something different each day — whether it is the Pythagoran The- orm or the message the last occupant left on the desk. We all heave a relieved sigh when the bell rings for our favorite period of the day — lunch, which gives us a chance to catch up on that days gossip and guess the day’s mystery meat. After lunch It’s back to class to catch a nap or learn something new which Is supposed to prepare us for the future. Finally, the 3:30 bell rings and we -all stampede in a huge mob out the door and head for home. After several hours of pigging out on chips and coke while watching re-runs of the Brady Bunch and Oprah Winfrey, it is time to hit the books again. School work doesn’t stop In the classroom, but surprisingly in class with our friends Is where we'll have some of our greatest memories.

(above) Academics 5 Hands-on Education Practical courses such as drivers’ ed- ucation and home economics offer students experiences that, for most, are more meaningful than academic subjects.

Students usually feel as much at home in the kitchen as they do ina car. Home Ec courses have immedi- ate rewards. Students often learn to appreciate the skills and knowledge required to prepare and serve meals. Most, however, never appreciate knowing how to clean up!

Academics 7 Macintosh lab brings out the ‘‘write”’ stuff When the Seniors of C.H.S. recelved their schedules for the 1988-89 school year, many wondered why English 42 wasn’t In room 4106 anymore. When the school doors opened In the fall, students were greeted by a sign above room 106 that read ‘BIG MAC AT- TACK’’. When they peeked In, there wasn’t a fast food restaurant Inside, but low and be- hold, a room filled with Macintosh printers, keyboards, and computers. The room was designed as a writing lab to be used by English students and teacher. Ba- sically, only Sophomores, Juniors, and Seni- ors used the writing lab because they were familiar with the keyboard, but some Fresh- man used it as well. Dr. Greear said the pur- pose of the writing lab was “to help make better writers and to help speed up writing and revision. It’s also an excellent tool for teachers.” The Installation took place at the end of July Travis Perry and Josh Pennington seemed to be concentrating on something interesting. Students experienced a new type of learning with the Mac- intosh computers. 8 Academics and lasted two full work days. Approximately $45,000, appropriated by the Wise County School Board, was spent on everything from the chalrs the students sat on, to the tables the computers sat on, to the computers. Room 106 was chosen for the writing lab mainly because of Its size; it was close to the main office and easily hooked up to the se- curity system. Initially, room 4100 was being considered, but there was much concern with Its size and the security. Among students, opinions about the Mac room varied. Jack Brummit seemed to enjoy it because ‘It helps students learn about com- puters and this Is important because com- puters are our future.”” While Roberta Salyers thought, “It’s too crowded In the room and students should be able to use It anytime, like during study hall, not just when a teacher Is in there.” Mrs. Hill seemed pleased with what appeared on the monitor. While working at the Macintosh computer Jonathan Dowell was dis- tracted. Roberta Salyers and Crystal Hale spent several days in the Mac lab working on English papers. Danie! Bailey assist- ed fellow senior George Gambrell. Academics 9 A.P.: Academic Perfec- tion Usually when the Initials A.P. are heard, the meaning Is “Advanced Placement” something. The name Is synonymous with challenge. This year A.P. can stand for abso- lute punishment. The A.P. class schedule Is different this year. Classes are taught In the morning and Coeburn students can stay here and view the class by tele- vision. Latin Is also new to the A.P family. Freshmen through Seniors are eligible for the Latin course. To many students, A.P. stands for Academic Perfection. This holds true for our own Valerie Ward. Vaierle Is what we call a ‘Triple Crowner.”’ She attends all three A.P. classes as part of the studio classroom. Most of the studio students feel A.P. can sometimes stand for Ac- cldental Party. Missy Salyer says her favorite part of the class Is meeting all of her other students from the satellite schools and be- Ing In front of an audience each dayll When It comes to homework and major papers, A.P. stands for After Prime-Time. This Is when the ma- Jority of the students find them- seives starting to study for the big Calculus test or tying on that clincher statement. Due to ot her obligations, Dennis Boggs is now an Absent Participant In A.P. English. Dennis felt that A.P. Annie just wasn’t his thingll How- ever, Dennis couldn’t tear himself away from Dr. Low, and watches him each day along with Brian Rose, Daniel Dotten, and James Mullins. Kim Bowlin, Velisa Meade, and Va- nessa Elkins feel the best meaning for A.P. Is Absolutely Putrid. Velisa says she has nightmares of Shake- speare and “the stilipoint’’ almost every night. Overall, A.P. students would like to think of themselves as Almost Per- fect. A.P. classes have taught them all a little something that they can carry through the years. 10 Academics AP Calculus students Daniel Dotten, James Mullins, Dennis Boggs, and Brian Rose found It easier to keep their eyes on thelr paper rather than the screen. AP History students weren’t as enthuslastic about Custez’s last stand as Old Yellow Hair had been. Students In AP Latin class were hard at work as usual. Wesley Greear pondered the assigned task while Mark Ad- ams and Shane Adkins read. Hard working Latin stu- dents studied diligently In the Iibrary. Valerie Ward and Mrs. Gibson, the AP English teacher, pause for a pose during a busy day.

Academics 11 Practical Education...a “technical” solution When senior Tracy Salyers said that ‘‘going to shop Is not necessarily easier, but it sure Is different from sitting In class all day,’ he voiced the feelings of many of the approximately 80 CHS students who attend the Wise County Technical Center In Wise. Students like everything about going to ‘‘shop.” Marty Adkins, a senior auto mechanics student, noted that students have a chance fo work on practical skills that they have a particular interest In, from cosmetology or drafting to printing or electricity. Another factor that students Ilke is the class schedule at the Vo- Tech. Each morning and at lunch students leave all the county high schools by bus, have three hours of hands-on training, then return to thelr respective schools. ‘lt breaks the monotony, and you can always immediately see what you have accomplished,” says drafting student Chris Barnes. The most attractive feature of the Vo-Tech curriculum Is the job skills that students acquire. Seniors who complete the two- year course are eligible for llcenses In practical nursing and cosmetology; many also find immediate employment in bricklaying, carpentry, or mechanics. Doors are opened early with the job placement program in which third year students have jobs with local employers that often become permanent. - yon a .

Senior Chad Lund probably spent as much time at McDonalds as he spent in the class room. z E Work! Work! Work! Money, cash, doughill CHS students love to have a little extra for everything they loved to do, whether it was spending it for a night at the at the Pizza Hut, buying the newest “‘to die for’ outfit, or splurging on some of the latest tapes. How did students who survive, usually, on al- lowances raise enough capital to meet these personal needs? Creativity, of course! There was always the old advance on the allowance (parents don’t always fall for that); they could hit-up one of their friends for a short loan. Or if desperation lurked close at hand, there was always that four-letter word that most students detest — W OR Kil Several juniors and seniors, through DECA, hold down full and part-time Jobs throughout the school year. Some work In grocery stores, gas stations, fast food restaurants; others have jobs In manufacturing and offices. Students elther leave for their jobs at the end of fourth period, or they use the time to do homework until their job begins In the evening. Students are required to work a minimum of 45 hours per week; however, the average student works 22 to 30 hours weekly. Chad Lund, who averages 35 hours per week, Is one exception to the rule. Try pulling that off with Mrs. John- son's government homeworklill According to Frank Morris, DE adviser, the combined salaries of all working students at CHS totalled $30,000 In four months. Working had Its drawbacks, of course. There was less time for studying and socializing, and extra-curricular activities were almost Impos- sible. Until the balance was found, homework and friends suffered. Everything was worthwhile, of course, when that paycheck nestled carefully in the wallet or the bank. Knights knew that the major buck was theirs. Larry Baker demon- strated the correct procedure for bag- ging groceries at the Payless. Lisa Palmer, cashier at Ben Franklin, made working look easy.(Middle left) Randy McConnell kept busy cooking at Long John SIil- ver’s.(left) Kristal Kilgore was found regularly working the cash register at Coeburn Cinema.(below) sean EB wee At Long John Slil- vers, Missy Ring counted change for a patient cus- tomer.

Student Life 15 Food for Thought “In coming! echoed through the cafeteria, but the forewarning was too late as a slimy spoonful of green peas hit Its victim. The battle was onl Tension mounted as the battle lines were drawn. Brother against brother, man against woman; If was civil war being fought with a smorgasbord of weapons. It was guerrilla warfare at Its best. Full-scale assaults were Im- possible because of the watchful eye of Coach Kelly. This was the break In everyone’s day that the stu- dents of CHS referred to as “lunch”. Occasionally, a round of mashed po- tatoes or a pear strayed from Its driv- en course and landed among one of the cliques that were found through- out the cafeteria. Although there were many cliques, ail were over- shadowed by the dominant seniors who made their home at the legend- ary SENIOR TABLE. No matter where students sat or who they sat with, they all had one thing In common. Food! Favorite foods varied among the stu- dents at Coeburn High School. Sev- eral students went for the traditional brown paper ig Wad home, while a select few had the privilege of take out from the local restaurants. Most students, however, summoned their courage — to brave the challenge of school food. The food was fresh, often so fresh that It could have gotten up and walked away with its own power. Unfortu- nately, the trays didn’t have this pow- er. in thelr haste to continue thelr ed- ucation, some students occasionally forgot to place thelr trays in the prop- er place at the end of their meal. At the 4:35 bell, students were back In class recovering from their wounds and were planning their next day's battle strategy. 16 Student Life Clara King seemed to be deep in thought over that Mello Yello.

Student Life 417 Could it be, maybe, possibly, a case of BAD MEDICINE? Many parents think so, bul as some teens may Say, 1LSM ¥ PREROGATIVE because PARENTS JUST DON’T UNDER- STAND. Some adults wonder what happened to that SWEET CHILD O’ MINE when hearing their teenagers listen to heavy metal, rock, and even country music. All have been criticized as being no better than the WILD, WILD WEST. But WHEN THE CHILDREN CRY, parents, as well as society, must have FAITH and believe that the “new generation” will not turn out BAD. Teens know that modern music is not just a FOOLISH BEAT. Music today, according to students surveyed, help to make the place they live inamore PERFECT WORLD. Everyone knows that certain artists appeal to different age groups, so the Journalism class did a survey. (you remember, the one you filled out during English class) The eighth grade seemed to be undecided about their favorite artist, for answers varied from Def Leppard to Bobby McFaron to Bon Jovi. Bobby Brown was by far the victor for the Freshmen class. This could be because, being newly graduated rug rats, they were ised Lo‘saving = DON WT BE CRUEL towpperciassmen, : a 2 When asked the favorite band, the underclassmen had many answers. But for the Seniors, Guns and Roses won by a long shot. Probably because they were saying WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE to future high school students. The Juniors seemed to have liked Bobby Brown for their favorite male artist. Country singers were also popular, such as Randy Travis and Hank Williams Jr. The Sophomores battled over their favorite female singer. Lita Ford, Whitney Houston, and Tiffany were at a stand off. Suppose they fought it out BACK IN THE CAVES? Getting the students opinion about music proved that without it, every passing year would be like aLONG COLD WINTER. But as we all know, music will remain FOREVER YOUNG and will never die. SODON’T WORRY, BE HAPPY because music will be here FOREVER AND EVER, AMEN! VIDEOS 1.

The entire week was full of dress-up and competition. The Var- sity cheerleaders took nominations from the student body to decide what each day’s dress-up theme would be. Mon- day was chosen as hippy day; Tuesday was kiddy day; Wednesday was punk rock day; Thursday was hillbilly day; and Friday was Blue and White day. Another big event during Homecoming week was the com- petition of spirit links. Each class bought spirit links from the Knightettes to determine which class would win. The senior class won with over 1000 links. After school on Friday at 5:30, the annual Homecoming parade began. Students attended to see Coeburn High School’s various clubs and Homecoming queen candi- dates. After the parade, everyone waited anxiously as the Homecoming game grew more and more near. Homecoming pep rallies are always birsterous and fun-filled. i Kim Culbertson and Jane Porter were willing subjects for the photographer. 29 30 omecoming Sophmores: Brian Nell and Sara Rose Seniors: Johnathon Dowell and Latisha Richardson Freshmen: Virginia Bell and Escort A Night of Celebration...

Fortunate- ly, the 1988 season has more highs than lows. The ride began on August 8 when 40 or so ambitious young men went to LMU for the training needed to be champions. The food was bad, the rooms stunk, and it was 4150 degrees in the shade. It was an environment that drew different individuals into a family until, it became much like the Waltons, with Coach Richards as the father. The first two victories of the season came over Ervington and traditional rival J.J. Kelly. The third game was with the Pound Wildcats, a team the Blue Knights hadn’t beaten in over 415 years. The jinx was broken at Pound with a 28-44 victory. The Knights were on an emotional high as they lost a heartbreaker 3-0 on a last minute field goal to the Joff Willlams slipped through the arms of the defenders and strived for extra yardage.

The task of rebounding | would be a rough one with the Clintwood | Green Waves at Ralph Cummins Stadium. | The Knights prevailed in the fourth quarter 28-20. With the first half of the season gone, the Knights stood strong at 4-4. The second half began with the J.I. Burton | Raiders, who cruised into Carl McConnell Stadium Norton City Bus and left in a Norton | City hearse, over-powered by CHS 52-7. St. Paul was the next victim for the Knight of- fense. CHS loaded the scoreboard with 28 points in the first half and apparently went to the Homecoming Dance a little early, al- lowing the Deacons to score 8 points while putting no points on the board themselves In the second half. Jeff Williams, broke 4,000 yards during this game The victory over the Castlewood Blue Devils clinched a spot in the playoffs for the first time in CHS history. The 9th game, with the Appalachia Bulldogs, gave CHS a shot at the LPD title. The game was hard-fought at both ends of the ball; unfortunately, at the end of the game when the dust cleared, the Dogs were on top 28-0.In The final reg- ular season game with Powell Valley the Knights led 7-0; after the first drive, but the night belonged to the Vikes. The roller coaster had landed, but the ride wasn’t over. After a week off, the Knights were back to serious business. On Novem- ber 42th, twelve SENIORS, Gordon Shel- ton, Daniel Bailey, Dennis Boggs, Ritchie Lindsey, David Hill, Keith Mut- ter, Jeff Hamilton, and George Gam- brell donned the Blue Knights uniform for what would be their final battle against the Pennington Bobcats. The Knights came out flat in the first half; Pennington scored at will. In the sec- ond half, Coeburn played with the same intensity that had gotten them into the playoffs, but the 26 points they had spotted Pennington in the first half was too great an obstacle to overcome. The season ended with a 33-18 defeat. b65 aul4g: li B236% . GAS) 3 v Below — Coach Thomas and Wesley Greear both paused to watch the ac- tlon.

Foofball 57 Gis Bieler Girls Basketball With the absence of super stars, the girls basketball team was forced to play team-oriented style. With only three returning seniors Missy Lawson, Tam- my Fleming, and Kim Hayes the team had to put young girls into pressure situa- tions. There were many in- dications of young talent becoming experienced veterans; Chastity Odle, Kim Culbertson, Amy Mut- ter, and Angela Gray progressed throughout the season. The girls will probably al- ways smile when they think back on the 1988, 0-19, sea- son. Most of the games took place on Tuesdays and Thursdays, except for the non-district games which were held on Mon- days. The eleven girls usu- ally arrived for their game at 6:30 p.m. with their bags full of uniforms, socks, hi- fops, and ponytail holders. Their usual routine was to watch the JV game, until the third quarter, when they dressed. Once they were in uniform, Coach Harris gave one of his legendary pep talks, and the team gath- ered for warm-ups before the game began. The games were fun for most of the players, but for some they were also tense. According to Missy Lawson “The games were scary most of the time.’’ One of the more frightening mo- ments for the varsity team was when Kim Culbertson was expelled from the Pound game. There was a fast break and Pound had 58 Girls’ Basketball the ball; Kim headed down the court to defend and, lit- erally, but not intentionally, ‘“‘tackled’’ Pound’s guard and a technical was called. After the games, Coach Har- ris gave another talk and the Suzette Barrowman.

According to Coach Jim Kelly the team had a competitive and successful sea- son, but they were considered to be much younger than other teams. Since they had no seniors. Besides individual scores, Coeburn be- an a fair season with a team score of 24. By the end of the season, the team was scoring in the 190’s, a 30 point im- provement in two months. The district golf tournament, October 3, 4988 at Lonesome Pine Country Club, saw Coeburn finished fourth with junior David Carico and sophmore Travis Perry having low scores of 96. Junior Brett Richards, David Carico, and Travis Perry qualified for the regional tournament.

Though falter- ing throughout the regular season, the Knights man- aged to defeat both Jones- ville and Lonesome Pine Dis- trict champion Pound in the latter part of the season. The Knights lost to LPD runner-up J.1. Burton in the district tour- nament. Although the record was not phenomenal, it was an im- provement from last year.

The long marching season, consisting of football games performances, marching competitions, and parades, began with the fleld performance during football half-times. Under the direction of Ralph Snowden, the marching Blue-Knight Band performed their field show for the first time at the Coeburn-J.J. Kelly game on September 2. The 39-member band stepped onto the field playing the familiar, pop-tune, ‘The Final Countdown.” The beat changed to a 40’s swing beat in the second tune, “Swingin’ on a Star.” The upbeat percussion section showed their stuff in the drum break, ‘Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport.” The band ended their performance with Abbey Flanary — Drum Major a slower, mellow tune, “Who Can Turn To,” witha duel! feature by Jason Shinn and Scott Ramsey. Marching season not only Involves football games, bud also marching competitions at which the marching Knights strut their stuff to be judged in competition with} bands from all around the area. The band attended)” four competitions this year: Lonesome Pine Festival in Wise, The McChesney Festival in Powell Valley, the; Alcoa Festival in Alcoa, Tennessee, and the Fleming- Neon Competition in Fleming-Neon, Kentucky.

It’s tough too for students to get that added unit of sclence necessary for the advanced di- ploma, since the only “cutting up’”’ done in science classes is done on frogs. Classes are social studies ig Buse Ene aS PORN ie si i a LSE Everyone has a social life and most consider it to be outside of school. But if the true meaning of social is brought to attention some will re- alize that classes too, are social. First of all, social means living with others. Social also means friendly relations among nation, com- munities, and individuals. Social studies faculty members stress these concepts as students learn that it’s important to respect the customs of other people, as well as the rights of the person sitting at the next desk.

Being a Junior is a lot like being the Prince of England. You have the power over all the commoners, but you still have to answer fo the king, the Seniors In this case. There are many rewards to be reaped during the junior year. The most obvious Is the class ring, a symbol of Individ- uallsm and respect for your school. Juniors also get thelr first taste of future power by way of the Christmas Dance and Prom. When Juniors were asked what If meant to be a junior, most an- swers were similar to those given by Garvin Gollie: “Being a Junior means there are three classes | can pick on.” Perhaps the most gratifying knowledge in being a junior Is that you are only one graduating class away from total power — but you still know nobody Is going to advocate.

Many Senlors are undecided as to the ca- reers that they will someday pursue, and are thus appre- hensive as they look toward the future. Others have locked onto a plan for their future, set- ting goals which they hope to achleve someday. Although most obviously look forward to the culmination of their high school careers, there seems to be an Inherent sadness among Seniors, a sadness which stems from being forced to give up the security of child- hood, locking It away In a file marked ‘Memories’, only to face an uncertain tomorrow. It is, at best, a very unsettling feeling. There’s also a feeling of constantly being on the verge of something; but of what? Of greatness? Of fall- ure? Of mediocrity? Even the most prolific prognosticator does not know. In short, being a Senior is an experience which could transform Mary Poppins Into a manic- depressive. — Earl Pillow An average day at the “Senior Table” In the lunch room — Lesley Buchanan, April Collier, Latisha Richardson, Crystal Hale, Tim Roberts, Chris Porter, Missy Salyers, Marla Wright, Gary Moore, Toni Elkins, Monica Salyers, Jody Hylton, Clara King, and Dawn Salyers.

Graduation 155 ene SOT He RET NE 2 _. oe 7 A, Soe ms 158 KNIGHTS FOR LIFE Nineteen hundred seventy-nine proved to be a turning point for the Coeburn School System as three former Coeburn students, J.B. and Freda Atwood, along with Allen Couch, decided that local students needed some extra support. Since then, the Alumni Association has grown and matured into a group, counted this season, of about 200 concerned teachers and parents. Since its inception in '79 over a half a million dollars has been donated to the Coeburn schools by the Alumni. When the association adopted the motto ‘‘We Build,” they meant it. Their most obvious support program has been Carl McConnell Stadium, now one of the best football stadiums in the area with a newly built pressbox, concession stand, bleachers, scoreboard, and a newly-bricked field house. Because of improvements to the stadium most people think that the Alumni’s money goes only to sports; primarily football, but this isn’t true. The Alumni have put money into other programs by sending teams such as golf, wrestling, and forensic to state competitions. In addition to supporting CHS competitive teams, the Alumni Association has bought a ‘‘Baby Grande” piano for the middle school and a new organ for the primary school. In the library, new encyclopedias, magazines, computer software, and other equipment have been purchased. New typewriters are also an addition compliments of the association. Through their help, CHS has seen several improvements like having the tennis courts resurfaced and buying new equipment for the band room. What the future holds for the Alumni Associaton isn’t in full view yet. A new baseball field project is now in the initial stages. We are sure that this is not the end of their plans. They have proven time and time again that they are indeed, Knights For Life. Board of Directors Butch Goodnought — Pres. J.B. Atwood, Jr. — Vice Pres. Freda Atwood — Sec. Treas.
