Tiger! Tiger! Burning Bright Gadsden High School Gadsden, Alabama In the forest of the night A Gadsden High Tiger goes to school all day but he is also at work at night. This Tiger attends bonfires, and in season games. Many students participate in the band and provide intricate drills during halftime entertainment. Through the excitement of football season, we find ourselves creating a school spirit in the midst of hard labor. 2 On What wings did he aspire? What the hand dare sieze the fire? How does a man or woman plan for the future? How can he or she put two best feet forward? By working up to the top from the bottom. An anxiously awaited high school beauty assembly, a successful magazine drive, the well-applauded sophomoric play, and those subtle talks designed to pattern our future, gather themselves together and carry us away. 4 What the hammer? What the chain? In what furnace was thy brain? Think! Concentrate! Work! Daily tensions mount up and send us into our own outside worlds. A teacher with her own thoughts and ideas, three students for one space of black- board, a group of determined students working together dil- igently, and biology lab students concentrating on the dissection of a frog, all have one thing in common stress. It is our daily companion. 6 What the anvil? What dread grasp? Dare its deadly terrors clasp? In the field of sports all participants strive to reach and grasp the win for their school. In preparation for a gymnas- tics competition, throughout a wrestling match, and while sweating out a tournament game, students strive dutifully. 9 Did he smile his work to see? The students of Gadsden High School are proud of the ex- cellence forwarded by their participation in class activities such as construction of floats, involvement in track per- formances. and willingness of spirit in a magazine drive. The spirit of the Tiger smiles on the work and pride a stu- dent puts in his achievements. Did He who made the lamb make thee? All forms on this earth familiar to ushave been substantiated by our Creator. Homecoming beau- ties and floats depict the symmetry and co-ordina- tion of our lives. Zealous basketball champions hard at play, the tufTand cool hippie makin’ the scene, and the rugged, fearless football players carrying the pigskin are supplemented only by the complacenticity and serenity of human life itself. 12 What immortal hand or eye Dare frame thy fearful symmetry? William Blake The life of a Tiger is not without strife and struggle. As this Tiger strives to be patriotic he must, at the same time, rec- ognize reverence — for this is the back bone of his ambi- tions. Whether he plays stout heartedly in the band while on the field, studies with an appetite for knowledge, or sweetly sings Valley of the Dolls in choral class, he must always be definitely aware of the rocky path he travels. 14 CRUCIBLE '68 16 The 1967-68 Crucible Staff wish to place emphasis on the school's nickname “The Tigers. The ponderings of a Tiger involve the faculty and students of Gadsden High School. As the Tiger makes his plans for the future the faculty and his fellow students play a very important part in his plans. As the Tiger pursues his goals he is involved in the activities of his school. This Tiger takes action to provide school spir- it. As the Tiger ponders and pursues his goals, he excells and receives prizes for a job well done. In our annual we intend to illustrate the ponderings, pursuits, and prizes of a Gadsden High Tiger in his day by day campus life. Contents: Ponderings . . . Administration, Faculty, Senior class.

Administration And Faculty Senior Class Junior Class Sophomore Class C ) r k S Dr. Glosser Attends a Conference in Germany The Gadsden City Board of Education is headed by Dr. Mori Glosser. He handles daily routine and administers the policies of the school system. His many tasks include staff- ing the schools, provisioning for the general welfare of schools and pupils, acquiring new property, and supervising new buildings. All of this is done with the approval of the Board of Education. During April Dr. Glosser, along with sixteen other United States Educators, attended the Ameri- can Association of Superintendants' Study Group in Ger- many. The students and faculty of Gadsden High School would like to thank Dr. Glosser and the members of the Board for all that they have done for Gadsden High School. Dr. Glosser, a former band director of Gadsden High School, directs the Tiger band at the Homecoming game. 20 Dr. Glosser discusses some plans with Mayor Leslie Gilliland.

BELOW Mr. Bill Jones, member of the Board of Education, is always willing to serve schools in any way he can. PON DERINGS Principal Guides School Activities Well Gadsden High School's aimiable. easy-going principal is highly regarded by both the students and the teachers. ABOVE: Despite his busy schedule. Mr Dobbs always has time to discuss a problem with one of the students or teachers. RIGHT: At a pep rally, Mr. Dobbs urges students to support their team. Mr. F. T. Dobbs has successfully served as principal of Gadsden High School for twenty-one years. Through his hard work and dedication. Mr. Dobbs has directed many students toward a prosperous future with education as a base. He is continually working to encourage the education of young people in Gadsden. The students of Gadsden High School would certainly like to commend and thank Mr. Dobbs for his ceaseless service and dedication to Gadsden High School and its students. 22 With students coming into his office all day long to get excuses signed, to check out. or for discipline. Mr. Bostick finds little time to rest. Coach Bostick Enforces Rules at Gadsden High Assistant principal John Bostick graduated from Florence State College with a B.S. degree. He eagerly fulfills his many daily tasks such as checking students in and out. okaying excuses, and handling a majority of the discipline. Also head basketball coach, he works diligently to prepare the boys to meet challenging teams. This year, he led the Tigers at the State basketball tournament to a second place win in their classification. Gadsden High School wishes to thank Coach Bostick for his hard work both as assistant principal and as basketball coach. ABOVE: Perhaps the only chance Mr. Bostick has to relax is during lunch. LEFT: Mr. Bostick listens intently as the new and old teachers are intro- duced on opening day. 23 PONDERINGS Guidance and Office Staff Aid Faculty and School The office, an essential part of Gadsden High School, is mostly accredited with the smooth-running of the school. During the day, Mrs. Bandy may be seen answering the tel- ephone. typing, and running off stencils for teachers. Mrs. Lewiski, the registrar, compiles each student's records and sends transcripts to colleges for the seniors. Mrs. Burton, the guidance counselor, assists in the selection of colleges and give various achievement tests. She also helps students with their various problems. The students wish to express their appreciation to these three people who keep Gadsden High School running. Mrs. Lewiski smiles as she goes about her daily duties. Mrs. Bandy’s eagerness to help the students and teachers at any time makes her a favorite among the entire student body. 24 Mrs. Burton, who sponsors the student council, takes an active interest in the activities and problems of all the students. Library Offers Help to Students in Class Assignments The library is an essential part of Gadsden High School. It aids students and teachers in their search for information. Library assistants help in checking books in and out and in locating needed books and material for reports. In such a well-equipped library, one may find books of all types. Magazines and newspapers dated many years ago as well as more recent ones may be found in the periodical room. The library, with a great number of invaluable refer- ences, is vital to a student writing a research paper. About a thousand books are checked out monthly from a large collection of fictional and biographical volumes. LEFT: Linda Talley, one of ihc library assistants, helps to check books in and out and replaces them in their proper places. ABOVE: Mrs. Cun- ningham. her assistant, helps Mrs. Pruett with her duties in the library. 25 Mrs. Pruett, the librarian, is alwavs happy to help students and teachers find information. PONDER1NGS Teachers Employ New English Visual Aids Through the study of grammar, the English Department helps students communicate more intelligently in speaking and in writing. Through studying literature, the department hopes to develop within the student a better understanding of himself and an appreciation for our cultural heritage. This year the English Department has some new equipment including record players, overhead projectors, and filmstrip projectors. With this new equipment, the department is trying to make the study more interesting through the use of visual aids and of record players. Jack Kelly and Forrest Hinton write spelling words on the blackboard. Spelling is emphasized in sophomore English classes. L. Taylor K. Shamblin J. Campbell H. Owens M. Evans M. Cowart 26 P. Clay M. Barton D. Kifcr G. McDaniel LEFT: Dianne McCluskcy, a conscientious sophomore, spends a lot of time in the library writing reports for English. ABOVE: Since every senior is required to write a research paper, they find that a great deal of extra time is spent in the library. PONDER1NGS Language Department Shows Foreign Films T.Johnson Students listen eagerly to the foreign accent of the speaker. The language department includes classes in French, Span- ish. German, Latin, and Russian. The language department has a language lab which always proves useful to the stu- dents. Here, a student may listen to tapes of people speak- ing in a foreign language, and try to improve his use of that language. Many students realize that Gadsden High School has one of the finest language departments in the state. 28 Forrest Hinton tries to locate Madrid on a map of Spain. D. Hill L. Elliot T. Bentely 29 The History Department helps to prepare students to be good United States citizens. Both American History, taken the junior year, and Democracy and Economics, taken the senior year, are required, while World History is an elec- tive. These courses often include stimulating discussions. Through these discussions, students learn to form opinions for themselves. Upon completion of these courses, one is familiar with the basic elements of our history on which our leaders must base their decisions. Students work hard to complete a study guide in American History. L. Steinberg G. Riddle 30 History Classes Stress Importance of Heritage E. Lamon J. Keener F. Hall V.

Lura Culli, with the horror of all biology students— dissecting a fish. Science Classes Prepare Students for the Future This year three physical science courses. Biology, Chemis- try, and Physics, are offered. Biology, the terror of all soph- omores, helped them to enter a new and interesting world of algae, fungi, insects, and vertabrates. In Chemistry, an elec- tive, students learn about the chemical complexities of this atomic age. In Physics, each person receives a thorough education in advanced science. Each student in these classes receives individual attention and warm friendship along with his education in science. J. Davie B. Allman A perplexing chemistry problem on the board seems to baffle John Croyk. $ Math Department Adds 5 Course in Math Analysis The main objective of the Math Department at Gadsden High School is to prepare its students for higher courses in mathematics. The math teachers also attempt to give stu- dents the necessary mathematical knowledge for clerical work they may undertake in the future. With their three new overhead projectors, the teachers find it much easier to demonstrate mathematical procedures and techniques. Courses are olTered in algebra, geometry, advanced math, advanced algebra and trigonometry, and math analysis. Students, by taking these courses, learn to apply mathemat- ics to many new areas of life. “Why didn't 1 think of that?. Most of the students arc thinking as they copy solutions to geometry problems off the board. 34 B. Watford Students take notes as Mrs. McCrary explains the principles of geometry. J. Skipper M. McCrary R. Lewiski J. Cooper T. Henson R Owens rs Commercial Department Develops Basic Skills • In so highly a commercialized world as exists today, it is extremely important for students to gain interest in busi- ness. If business is a student's interest, the Commercial Department of Gadsden High School can help him. The Business Department offers many subjects to those students interested in commercial fields. Typing, business math, business English,, business law, and shorthand all provide the students w ith an excellent background. All these courses are of major credit toward graduation and provide the students with a working knowledge of the busi- ness world in which they will someday work. A BO VE: Debbie Tomlinson seems to be thinking hard as she takes a shorthand test. RIGHT: These speedy students seem to enjoy typing. 36 M. Campbell J. R. Davis M. Templeton M.

Smith Distributive Education Is Chance to Learn and Earn Gadsden High School's Distributive Education is an inte- gral part of the city’s high school curriculum. D.E. is a vo- cational cooperative training program for selected high school juniors and seniors. These students are trained in three phases of distribution: retailing, wholesaling, and service selling. The students are given classroom instruction in the morning and on the job training by cooperative firms in the after- noon. Because of this opportunity, a D.E. student graduates with both a diploma and a year or more of job experience. Mrs. Smith demonstrates the use of a cash register to her students. 38 ABOVE: Mrs. McAlpin gives Alan Dodson. Sharon Packer and Cindy Moreland a few tips before allowing them to drive. BELOW: Fred Killian and Joe Morgan look at a display of posters on driving tips. Driver Education Course Added to the Curriculum This year, for the first time, a driver education course has been added to Gadsden High School's curriculum. Many of the students, especially those who do not yet have their driv- ers licenses, find this course both helpful and fun. Students take driver education for six weeks during which time they receive minor credit just as if they were still taking their regular minor credit course. As an added advantage, a driv- er education car is furnished by the school. The students are shown films and given tips on safe driving. The remainder of their time is spent gaining experience at the w heel. This driver education course is taking a place among the important courses offered at Gadsden High School. O.

Williams 40 Home Economics Classes Prepare for Married Life The main objective of the Home Economics department is to help students develop concepts, skills, values, and appre- ciations which will make them better individuals. Better individuals produce better homes and families which make a better society. The “Little House, just behind the Home Economics building has been converted to a Home Economics class- room-laboratory this year. Each of the three Home Eco- nomics teachers alternate classroom at the end of each 12- week period. This “Little House has proved a useful addi- tion to the Home Economics department this year. Here courses are taught in Human Development, and the Family, Art in Individual and Family Living, Home Management and Family Economics, and Housing and the Family. The Home Economics Department is well equipped with the most modern of furnishings and is a great asset to Gadsden High School. Gwen Willis, Patiy Carrell. and Gwen McCartney seem to be anxious for Carol Raley to finish making the brownies. 41 It is evident that the members of the Velvetone Choir thoroughly enjoy learning and performing the new songs they learn. Choral Classes Practice Both New and Old Songs The Choral department is headed by a new teacher. Mr. Gene Barnes, this year. Besides the Triads and the Velve- tones. Mr. Barnes teaches several other choral classes. In these classes, the students learn both old and new music. The students enjoy learning older music such as “The Battle Hymn of the Republic as well as newer pieces like “Valley of the Dolls. The students find that not only is choral a helpful class, but it is also enjoyable. G. Barnes Mr. Barnes directs the all-female Triads as they sing “Cherish.” 42 ABOVE: The band played an important part in the pep rallies by provid- ing all of the music. BELOW: Members of the band. Zane Kennedy. Da- vid Pinson. Corky Reeves, and Buddy Walden, play TAPS as the flag is lowered at a football game. As Members of the Band Students Develope Talent The Band Department, directed by Mr. DeLeath Rives, strives to develop the musical talent in its students. During the year, they learn to play both popular and classical music on their various instruments and they develop their sense of good taste in music. Under the direction of Mr. Rives, these students learn drills and march at all Gadsden High School football games and in competition. After the football sea- son is over, they give concerts for the students and for the public. The Band Department has helped many students to develop their talents for music, and perhaps to further their careers in the field of music. D. Rives. • Speech, Art, and Debate Display Various Talents ABOVE: Charles Prucnal. restrained by Forrest Hinton, seems to be quite angry at Ann Anderson during the play put on by their speech class. RIGHT: Having taken speech under the leadership of Mrs. DuPont. Mead Goodall has greatly improved his poise as a public speaker. M. DuPont The Art Department instilled creativity in its students and endeavored to provide an interest in the cultural side of life. Art is concerned with the dual relationship the student has with art: that of the creator and that of the spectator. The speech classes learned a great deal about plays and they enjoyed presenting several line plays to the students. The debate class learned about debating and public speaking. Several students from the department entered speech con- tests. The Speech. Art. and Debate Department helped its students gain an interest in the cultural side of life. 44 Coach Culwell grins as he helps Bert Dean with his mechanical drawing. I. Culwell Mechanical Drawing Is Well-Liked By Students Mechanical Drawing has become a very popular subject at Gadsden High School this year. Many of the boys take Mechanical Drawing and some of the girls do also. During this course, which provides a major credit, students learn the principles of mechanical drawing which may prove use- ful to them in their careers. Most students also find this a very enjoyable course. The mechanical drawing students appreciate their teacher, Ingram Culwell. for his good pres- entation of this course. 45 d 2 Brothers Bullock Girls’ Physical Education Offers Fun and Fitness Gadsden High School's physical education program for girls is set up to develop the athletic abilities, attitudes, and interests in the girls. The school has purchased many pieces of fine equipment for use by these girls. In addition to the regular physical education classes, there are special classes for the girls' volleyball team, the girls’ track team, rhythms, and tumbling. Rhythms is a special class for girls interested in modern dancing. In tumbling, the girls learn to do various tricks on the mini-tramp, the trampoline, and the mats. The girls find that these classes make physical fitness more enjoyable than ever. 46 The members of the other team look anxious as Jcffe Pruett gives the vol- leyball an enthusiastic boost over the net. Charles Pruett keeps in good physical condition by exercising on the paral- lel bars in his physical education class. Boys Learn the Value of True Sportsmanship The physical education department of Gadsden High School presents an interesting program for the boys. The boys participate in various sports such as football, basket- ball, track, gymnastics, softball, and baseball. The boys also do strenuous exercises to keep them in good physical condition. Twice during the year, the boys are given physi- cal fitness tests sponsored by the President's Council on Physical Fitness. The boy in each class. Sophomore, Junior, and Senior, who docs best on these tests is given a physical fitness award. Most of the boys will agree that because of the fine physical education teachers and equipment, Gadsden High School has good reason to be proud of its physical program. G. Stephens C. Bolcr 47 K. Watson I. Striplin For many years the lunchroom has provided the school with attractive, tasty, and nutritious meals. Students know that no better meal can be bought anywhere for thirty-five cents. Students look forward to their lunch period because it is a time when they can relax, eat, and get in some last minute studying. The students and faculty are certainly thankful for the hard work and careful planning which have been put into our lunchroom program. Mrs. Striplin gives David Pinson his change as he pays her for his lunch. Lunchroom Offers Tasty, Nutritious Meals The cooks work hard in order to prepare and serve an attractive, tasty, and nutritious lunch to the students every day. 48 T. Cushing C. Snell O. Kelley Custodians Keep Gadsden High Neat and Attractive The custodians are a valuable part of Gadsden High School. Students seldom realize how much paper is left on the floor or how much work it takes to clean it up. The cus- todians clean the floors, empty trash cans, erase the black- boards, and keep the school looking clean. In addition to these responsibilities, they also adjust the heating systems as well as cleaning and oiling the blackboards. Mr. Marlow assisis in keeping ihe Field House clean. 49 Seniors Leave Hoping To Be Remembered The class of 1968 has left Gadsden H igh School with an impressive record. As Sophomores, the class shared many new and exciting experiences. Floats, football games, dances, pep rallies, and talent shows to keep everyone busy. The new things learned by the Class of '68 during their sophomore year were put to even more use as they entered G.H .S. as Juniors. Every thing undertaken was a success. This past year at Gadsden High the Seniors of 1968 have led the school in every important activity. Seniors definitely led the other classes in spirit during football and basketball games. The Class of ‘68 surpassed all previous records for magazine sales. In the spring the Seniors put to use all the experience gained in the past two years in order to produce their last talent show. The Senior class has been well led this year by both their sponsors and officers. Elected as Senior class officers arc: Tommy Smith. President; Chip Hoe- fer. Vice President; Janet Nolen. Secretary; and Dianne Laughlin. Trea- surer. Coach Bolcr instructs linebacker Billy Abston in a strategic play.

A friendly gesture while changing classes, sore throats after a ball game, girls in long dresses for a formal dance, and the utter chaos of club meetings will be a part of us longer than tomorrow'. C ) Co oc Opening Day Brings Thirteen New Teachers Besides the mass confusion and the problems of the new Sophomores, opening day at Gadsden High brought the introduction of thirteen new teachers to the student body. Mr. Dobbs presented the new teachers, as well as the other members of the faculty, to the student body at the assembly in the field house. He also introduced Tommy Wells, Presi- dent of the Student Council, who welcomed all of the new, as well as the old students to Gadsden High. This year's Sophomores were already aware of their sched- ules. They visited G.H.S. last year and were registered with the assistance of the Student Council. After the assembly was completed, the students went through their schedules for the coming year by spending about thirty minutes in each of their new classes. As students gather in the main hall, they arc greeted by a sign which reads, “Hang-Loose Tigers — Only 9 Months To Go.” ABOVE: Tommy Wells.

PURSUITS Bruce Hill picks up a few lough yards up the middle while three Sansom defenders move in to make the tackle. Gadsden Opens With a Big Sit-in Over Sansom Gadsden Tigers joined the mod era, staging our first sit-in smack in the middle of Emma Sansom's end one to rout the Rebs, 41-0. To start the evening off, John Croyle prompted the evening by taking the flight out of an attempted Reb punt at the 19 on the game’s fourth play. Marc Webb picked up the pig- skin and walked 16 yards into Reb land for the first TD. Clay added the PAT giving the Tigers a 7-0 lead with the contest only 1:31 old. The Tiger's second marker came with 5:35 left to go in the first half. Douglas called for a trap with John Scott scooting five yards into Sansom territory. The action was the same on the next play, but Douglas found Swafford and hurled a perfect strike for a touchdown. The victors came back as time and the rain was running out in the first half to up the midpoint margin to 27-0. Midway of the second period Gadsden began a 70-yard trip to paydirt. Short sparked this maneuver pounding 24 yards during the drive. Douglas slipped across from the 6 un- touched. Hill rounded out the evening's activity for the Ti- gers as he pushed across the final score of the night from the 11. Only 6:07 remained when Clay tacked the final point on the board. The entire Gadsden High Tiger club saw action. The middle of the line was outstanding including Wayne Humphries, Ricky Leath, David Miller, Bill Abston, and David Thomas. 120 Terry Steele finds the going rough as he is brought down by a Rebel de- fender after grabbing a short aerial. Captain Bruce Hill anxiously awaits the result of the toss of the coin for the annual game with Albertville. Tigers Roll Over Aggies Albertville died of an overdose of Defense as Tigers, like Webb, Abston, Swafford, and Clay came through with key plays to crush the Aggies. The score sounds close, but it really wasn't. Other than their two TD's the Aggies hardly ever busted sod in Gadsden ter- ritory. The Aggies struck first with the recovery of a Tiger fumble at the one. After being scored upon, the Tigers bounced back with two TD passes to Swafford and Scott. Early in the third quarter Hill broke through for four yards and another TD. Clay tacked up the PAT to bring the score to 21-7. Albertville took the ball but returned it quickly af- ter only three plays. The Tigers took the ball on their own 32 and scampered 68 yards in eight plays. This drive was caped by a 16 yard run by Hill to wrap it up for the Tigers. Albertville scored one more time but the Gadsden lead was too much for them to overcome. The Tigers came home with a 27-14 victory and their second win of the season. 121 The rugged Tiger defense gets set to huddle.

The election of the Homecoming Queen and her court was held on September 14, 1967. The following Monday, the classes started to work on their floats. Each class worked extremely hard and did an exceptional job on its float which was proudly displayed in the parade. Homecoming week was brought to an end on Friday night. September 22, 1967. Tommy Wells, President of the Stu- dent Council, crowned Miss Peggy Longshore as Queen of 1968 during the half-time presentation.

All but sev- en of the Tiger markers came in the first half. Although the Tigers tacked only seven points on the score- board in the second half, they controlled the ball through- out the remainder of the game. The Gadsden first score came when Wayne Humphries blocked a punt and Bill Abston scooped up the bouncing oval and dashed to paydirt. Mike Douglas tossed to John Croyle for the next two TD's. The last scoring drive was sparked by Bruce Hill who hauled in a 19 yard pass and lugged the pigskin four times before scoring up the middle from the 2, capping the homecoming win. Tired cheerleaders and ihe Tiger rest while the game continues. With excellent blocking from Humphries, Bill Abston ran for the TD. 126 Huntsville Panthers Skin Tigers for First Defeat Huntsville showed signs of hostile intent from the very be- ginning, forcing the Tigers to punt from the 10 after three plays and then moving down to the 19 before missing a 36 yard field goal. Gadsden still couldn’t go on its next possession and Croyle punted 19 yards into a stiff wind. Starting on the Tiger 46, the Panthers launched their initial scoring thrust with Goodrum’s 15 yard burst through left tackle capping the effort. The first quarter ended with Huntsville ahead 7-0. In the second quarter Croyle was forced to punt from the Tiger five. The Panthers blocked the pigskin and took it in for the touchdown. Now the Panthers increased the lead to 14-0 at the half. Humphries started Gadsden on its lone scoring march in the third quarter by claiming a fumble. A Douglas to Webb tackle eligible pass melted a profit of 24 yards and Hill danced in from the 12. In the fourth quarter Wayne Hall intercepted a pass and returned it to the Gadsden 39. Following a nine yard pass, two other Panther runners put together two long runs to get the points for Huntsville. This final Panther touchdown made the score 21-7, bringing the first defeat for the Gads- den Tigers.

With their lighted torch- es, the cheerleaders ignited a tremendous fire which was surpassed only by the enthusiam of the crowd and band. Traditionally, a bonfire procedes the game with arch-rival Etowah County High School. In the heat of the excitement, the students rushed to the Agricola Shopping Center for an unauthorized, unorganized, and unplanned snake dance! Waving hands and hoarse voices arc the making of a good bonfire. Head cheerleader Beth Towers adds extra fuel to the blazing flames as the first bonfire of the football season gets underway. One last look at the Blue Devil before he becomes a “crispy critter.” 130 Devils Shock Gadsden In typical Glover fashion Etowah squeezed by Gadsden 7-6. The Alabama tackle eligible play. Hornbuckle to Black- well, set up the winning touchdown. Statistically, the game belonged to Gadsden. Gadsden controlled the ball most of the first quarter, driv- ing from its five to the Etowah 34 before Cheaves came up with a fumble. The Devils shot back down field, almost scoring as McKinney juggled a pass as he crossed the end line. The play was nullified and four snaps later the Tigers took over on downs at the 15. Gadsden, which had dominated play for three quarters but not to the point of getting a tally, finally got on the score- board on the first play of the fourth quarter. This came on a 16 yard pass from Douglas to Beason, wide open over the middle and in the end zone. The key play, coming in the last two minutes of play, was an 18 yard pass from Hornbuckle to Blackwell at the six. This was the means to stardom. The end result was a 7-6 victory for the Devils. ABOVE: Determined to display true GHS spirit. Douglas, with the aid of blockers, plans to show up the Etowah players. BELOW: From the looks of the scoreboard. Coach Bostick did not pay enough. 131 As Ricky Hill adjusts Leeth’s pads. Leeth studies the game earnestly. PUR Gadsden Tigers Sting Oxford Yellow Jackets Gadsden after two straight defeats got their revenge by rap- ping the Oxford Yellow Jackets 23-0. Hill scored for Gads- den with only five minutes gone in the first quarter after an Abston interception and some fine running by Scott, Short, and Beason. Clay added the PAT and the Tigers were out front 7-0. The rest of the first half was evenly fought with neither team able to put points on the scoreboard. The second half was almost all Gadsden. Gadsden took the kickoff and after several rushing plays Douglas spotted John Croyle in the end zone and threw a perfect strike for the Tigers second TD. Clay added the extra point and it was 14-0 Gadsden. Oxford tried in vain to get something started but the entire defensive line was just too much for Oxford. Holding them to only seventeen yards on the ground in the second half and only one pass completed for a minus two yards, the Tigers added their final touchdown with 2:35 left in the third quarter. Jay Whitt returned an Oxford punt 31- yards to the Yellow Jacket 32-yard line. Short, Scott. Bea- son and Pope made 27 to the five, then Douglas spotted Swafford all alone and hit him for TD number three. Clay put another one through the uprights to make the score 21- 0. With just over five minutes left in the game the Tigers were driving goalward again when Oxford intercepted a Gadsden pass on the goal-line, but a crushing tackle by Short into the end zone for a safety added the final two points for Gadsden.

Tigers was greatly contributed to the hard work done by the mem- bers of the Pep Club. The Pep Club, under the leadership of Mr. Keener, made many unique and humorous posters for both the football and basketball seasons, proclaiming the greatness of the Tiger teams. Their most successful at- tempts of raising school spirit were the bonfires prior to our football game with Etowah and the Charity Bow l game.

FCA Stresses Christian Actions Among Athletes The Fellowship of Christian Athletes is a nondenomona- tional organization which helps plant Christian ideas in the minds of the athletes at Gadsden High School. To help the boys realize their Christian responsibilities on and off the playing field, the F.C.A. brought many famous athletes to speak to this group. The members of the F.C.A., along with the youth of the First Presbyterian Church, also sponsored a three day Youth Retreat at Camp Maranatha, near Scottsboro. Bob Short.

After the fierce goal line stand Gadsden beat the clock by fifty-four seconds right before intermission to tack up its first six-pointer of the evening. After Croyle blocked a Guy Horton punt at the Dog 35, the Tigers moved into the end one. In the second half the Tigers didn't waste time in widening the margin. John Scott got the honors as he rammed the ball over the double strip from the six. After missing his first attempt Clay bullseyed the PAT for 13-0 Tiger leader- ship. Moments later David Beason slipped the oval across from the three to raise the Tiger lead to 19-0. There the score stayed as Clay again missed the extra point. Midway in the final period the Tigers hustled 90 yards for their final marker of the evening. Big Bruce Hill used sheer power to bull his way in from the two. The Anniston line was strong but Bruce danced in dragging the Dogs like pup- pies licking his feet. Anniston got good field position late when they got a lose Tiger bobble at the visitors 18. Four plays later the Dogs scored their lone TD as the clock ran out. Tigers square off against the rugged Anniston football team. Forming a helicopter, the band plays “You Only Live Twicc. 135 PURS ITI S Powerful Tigers Maul The Cullman Bearcats Cold, wet and windy weather did not bother the Tiger boys. But it must have Cullman, sitting pretty in fourth spot in the state's high school ratings and eyeing a berth in the playoffs. But Gadsden, overlooked recently, was the team primed to knock ofT the highly touted Bearcats. Gadsden scored first with four seconds left in the first quart- er. Douglas found Swafford all alone in the end zone for the TD. Clay's PAT was wide. Cullman came right back with nine minutes left in the sec- ond quarter on a 26-yard pass play, fumbled into the end zone where the Bearcats recovered for six points. The Ti- gers blocked the extra point, and it was all tied up with three minutes gone in the second quarter. With 2:49 left in the first half Butch Morton hit Phil Parris from one yard out, and the Bearcats took the lead, 13-6. Gadsden kicked off to start the second half and after Cull- man made it to their own 43-yard line, Wayne Humphries leaped high to snag a Morton pass and set sail dow n the field after a block by Abston cleared the way. Clay put this one through and tied the score 13-13. With the clock running into the final stanza it looked like the game would possibly wind up in a tie, but ten minutes left in the game Gadsden started rolling again. Short picked up 18 on a draw, then Douglas spotted Croyle for the Ti- ger's third TD. Short snagged a Douglas pass and ran 42 yards to the 14. Then Douglas found Croyle again all alone in the end zone for another six points. Clay missed this one as the Tigers went way ahead 25-13. The clock showed 2:36. Douglas then passed to Short again, this time for 24-yards and a touchdown. Clay put this one through and the scoreboard blinked out the final . . Gads- den 32 . Cullman 13.

Youth Council Beneficial To Community Projects The Youth Council on Civic Affairs, a member of a nation- wide organization, has the largest membership of any club at Gadsden High School. The principle purpose of the Youth Council is to increase its members interest in their government by giving them cer- tain responsibilities that adults have. Each week Council members were chosen to be a juror on the Youth Jury. This jury's cases dealt primarily with juvenile traffic offenses. Helping with charity drives was a Youth Council project. Youth Council members Mark Hulsey and Susan Waid arc going to the Court House to serve as members of the Youth Jury.

This year the Council reviewed all of the club charters to see if any changes were needed to make the clubs at Gadsden High serviceable. 137 Patsy Evans. Charlie Hill, and Gary Speer arc doing their share to help improve clubs by reviewing their charters. Tuscaloosa Bears Beat Tigers 21-14 o For the second consecutive year Tuscaloosa was rated an underdog going into its battle with Gadsden, the powerful eleven from North Alabama. But the Black Bears of Tusca- loosa heard none of the rumors and pounced the Tigers at Denny Stadium in Bear Country. The Tigers started with the right aim but the tough Bruins stopped the drive with an interception at their twelve. After an exchange of punts the Bruins manage a score with a key forty yard play. The game looked dim for the Tigers at the end of the half with the Bears marking put seven more to take a two TD lead. The Tigers were out for blood in the second period as Hum- phries blocked a Bear punt. Three plays later Douglas took it in for the score making play. Early in the fourth quarter the Bears took a Charlie Watts fumble in from the Tiger eleven. The gap between the two was widened by six more but the Tigers had the will. The Bengals took a Bear fumble in at the sixteen and only four plays later Watts took it in for the TD. Gadsdef threw a scare into the Bears as they recovered an onsides kickoff at the Bear forty-six. A last minute passing frenzy couldn't go for the hard charging Tigers as the clock died at the end of the fourth quarter. ABOVE: Bending over backwards to catch a pass.

This club has been of great service to the school, as well as the community. During the Christmas season the Tru-Bleu members col- lected toys for needy families in the Gadsden area. This was done on a compctative basis between the three classes at Gadsden High. The senior class won this contest by bring- ing in the most toys. Their main project this year was putting new' curtains on the doors in the school auditorium. Bob Short and Tom Cloud receive some needed instructions on how to correctly measure the auditorium doors from Phil Burgess. The Cheerful Charlies is a civic-minded organization, under the leadership of Mrs. Luker. They presented their best dance ever by bringing Percy Sledge to Gadsden in Febru- ary. This dance drew a crowd from all over the Gadsden area. The Charlies' main project of this year was repainting the dressing rooms and the main teachers' lounge behind the stage in the auditorium. Craig Payne. Billy Riddle. Tommy Alford, and Bill Hines try their hand at painting the main teachers’ lounge. PURSUITS The Magnavox, Gadsden’s High School's newspaper, strives to bring the students closer together by keeping them informed on all the activities which occur.

Amidst Losses, Tigers Fight Hard for Points Our year-old Gadsden High Wrestling team suffered a bad season as it was re-initiated into the curriculum. Coach In- gram Culwell backed the boys one hundred percent by coaching them throughout every match. Unfortunately, this was not enough. Lacking in experience, a most necessary factor, the boys could not completely master the sport. The team, however, should improve greatly next year with the return of an abundance of sophomores and juniors. 149 Tripp Leach and his opponent prepare to start their match.

Under the direction of Coach John Bostick the Tigers got oflT to a good start by winning seven games in a row be- fore being defeated in the Holiday Tournament of Champi- ons by Bradshaw, the tournament winner. Gadsden finished fourth in the tournament. The Tigers went into the NEAC Tournament without the help of junior center John Croyle. The Tigers defeated Gun- tersville in the semi-finals and went on to beat Sansom in the finals for Gadsden’s second NEAC title in a row. Phil Burgess, who scored twenty-three points in the final game, was named Most Valuable Player for the tournament. As the season continued, injuries weakened the team. Ben- ny Hale, team captain, severely separated an ankle, and John Croyle. alternate captain, was still out with an illness. With Croyle and Hale out, the outlook was gloomy, but the determination of this team never let up. With the return of Hale and Croyle, Gadsden matured into a great team. In the Region Six Tournament the Tigers, on an eight-game winning streak, defeated Anniston easily in the first round. Emma Sansom and Jacksonville, the top-seeded team, fell to the state-bound Tigers almost as easily. In the first game of the state tournament, Gadsden met B.C. Rain of Mobile. After a cold start in the first half, Gadsden came back to sink their opponents 83-46 setting a tournament scoring record. They became the first Gadsden team to win a State Tournament game. The Tigers then met Mountain Brook in the semi-finals and defeated the Spar- tans 71-65. Strong support from the bench was a major fac- tor in the victory. The Tigers were defeated in the finals by Lee of Huntsville 68-58. Gadsden placed three men on the all-tournament team. They were guard, Phil Burgess, for- ward, Benny Coley, and center John Croyle.

Under his direction the squad was drilled into a smooth, efficient unit. Coach Riddle instructs players on strategic game plans. The Tigers started the season off by winning six in a row before being defeated by Butler. In the County B-Team Tournament, Gadsden was runner up bowing to Sansom in li nals 43 to 40 in a closely contested game. This year's B-Team had great potential.

As the curtains open we find ourselves in the heart of the enchanted forest. We are not alone though Soon we find that some innocent children have decided to picnic in this bewitched area. “Hey this looks like a neat place to stop exclaimed one of the children. The excitement and squeals of delight were suddenly squelched as a black, dismal figure found its way to the center of the stage. “Get out of here the witch (Anne Anderson) shouted. While making her exit she leaves the group with this thought; “Beware! After the children scrambled to safety, the witch expressed her feeling of lonliness. She then mumbled a magical phrase under her breath which cast a spell over the forest. The woodland creatures came alive and fell subject to obey the witches' every command. The witch then experimented to sec if her spell was a suc- cess. “Sing Flowers!” she screamed. The flowers arose and obeyed her request. The whole forest got in on the act; frogs leaped around bugs took on human vocal chords and sang, and the pixies did a dance routine. Horrified by this experience, the children made a dash to cross a nearby bridge which led homeward. A huge troll (David Thomas) stopped them by jumping out from under the bridge, thundering; Hey, Hey, Hey! The frantic group scattered in the opposite direction. The action ended as the witch tried to cast a spell on the forest and make it lifeless again. The spell did not take ef- fect and thus left the creatures alive and laughing at the witch who was in a rage of madness. ABOVE: The creatures of the enchanted forest sleep peacefully.

The class of '70 presented their first talent show, “This is the way it was. Their theme jus- tified the old saying “My how time flys. The show began with the artist on the street painting 1910 on a billboard. He continues doing this throughout the show to let us know the exact date. 1910 brough back memories of that old popular song “There is a Tavern in the Town. A cry tang from a nearby hotel window. “Help, fird The Roaring 20 fire department came to the rescue by doing a dance routine to “Steamhcat. The 20's also reminded us of foxie furs, ragtime bands and the Charleston. The 1930’s bore unforgettable true story of the two gangsters “Bonnie and Clyde. As the artist puts the finishing touch on the year 1940, Peggy Evans breaks lose from her jail cell and expresses her regrets for her past life by singing “Yester- day. The good 'ole I950's were associated with campus choruses singing “Hey Look Me Over. As father time stretched his arms, time moved on to the present day '60's. The field of music has especially taken on a new and different sound. Teenagers, rock-and-roll music, and the “mini brigade make up today's jet set. One of the popular songs of this year was “Sweet Inspiration,” which was sung. The grand finale brought all members of the cast on stage where they teamed up and let themselves go in their own rendition of This is the Way It Was. The Roaring 20 Fire Department. (Janie McClendon, Ann Acee. Pam Gil- liland.

In 1968, for the first time, a tournament was scheduled to decide the confer- ence champion. The tournament was called off however, because of rain, and the Tigers became NEAC champions by virtue of their fine record against conference foes. After only a short time to prepare for their opening game, the Tigers were defeated by Lee of Huntsville 3 to 1.

Combining fun and cITort, the 1968 Crucible staff presented the theme “Tiger, Tiger Burning Bright ' by William Blake, to be forwarded throughout the entire book. Much hard work went into preparing this year's Crucible. During the summer the entire staff met at East Gadsden Community Center to learn how to edit an excellent yearbook. This workshop was directed by Mr. Hamp Johnston, a repre- sentative from the American Yearbook Company. Besides editing the yearbook, the staff contributes to many other student affairs. Magazine sales, the election of Senior Notables and Coronation Court, and the theme for the Coronation Ball, this year “The Shadow of Your Smile. were the secondary concerns of this willing and able staff.

Kid- die Day, Secret Ambition, and Hillbilly Day provided amusement and entertainment for all. Mama’s little darlings were attired in everything from dia- pers to baby dresses on May 8. Kiddie Day highlighted the lollipops brigade who either pestered teachers with their slingshots and paper wads or pampered them with apples and candy kisses. Probably the most colorful costumes were worn when the Seniors let their secret ambitions be known. Some of the get-ups were most original and many were quite attractive. Secret desires ran from one extreme to the other. We were given a treat when Caesar and his parade visited GHS. “Howdy” and “Ya'll come,” were among the greetings ringing through the halls Hillbilly Day, May 10. Patched jeans, pig-tails and potato sacks were much in style on this day. One saw everything from Snuffy Smith's and Daisy May's to the Beverly Hillbillies and Grand 'ole Opre Stars. Although the teachers attempted to conduct classes as usual, the masqueraders at limes were too excited to con- centrate on their work.

Through the help of the administration, faculty, and fellow classmates, the Tigers have begun to prepare their way for the future. The pursuits of the past year have been exciting, unforgetable, joyful, and sad. Being named WVOK Team of the Week, coming in second in the State Basketball Tournament, and winning the city and county championship in baseball will always be remem- bered by all in the field of sports. Homecoming, talent shows, and assemblies will also be remembered as a time of fun and excitement. The prizes that our fellow classmates won or were awarded mean almost as much to the whole class as it did to the honoree. This year was truly a great year. Three years, perhaps the most important of our lives, are about to become the past. The faculty and administration watch classes come and go and names and faces become muddled as years pass. But it seems certain that our class will not be quickly forgotten, because we utilized our sleepy Alma Mater for everything it was worth (and it was worth more than we realized). Hopefully the new ideas and rea- wakened ideals will stand both us and GHS in good stead. THE 1968 CRUCIBLESTAFF 268
