New Pupils relax in the new student center. There is no study hall at the new school, and students are free to use the library when they wish to do so. Hamburg High School is many things. It is old. The building we at- tended school in the first semester was built in 1927. It is filled with tradition. Most of our parents attend- ed school and graduated there. Some of our grandparents did. Hamburg High School is new. We moved into a new high school com- plex in February of this year. We will build traditions here. We will graduate here. One day, future generations will call our new school old. The New Hamburg High School . . . People Hamburg High School is people .. . People who seek knowledge . . .

CHARLES FRANKLIN There are usually several people who deserve the distinction of the yearbook dedication. The LION '73, however, selected one person who particularly stood out among the rest. He is Mr. Charles Franklin. Mr. Franklin has many fine qualities. He is patient ... to sponsor a club with a membership of over 150 boys, he would have to be. He is dedicated ... to teach five classes a day and give willingly of his time acting as football trainer, assisting with stage props, homecoming floats, and other projects, he would have to be. He is con- cerned ... to take a special interest in each student and give a pat on the back to those who need or deserve one, he would have to be. For these reasons, we are happy to dedicate this yearbook to Mr. Franklin. eri Administration Board of Education The Board of Education has spent many hours working to make new facilities available for Hamburg High School's academic and athletic programs. The result is the new Ham- burg High School building and football stadium and track. Members of the board are pictured left to right: Mr. Jack Shell, president; Mr. Bob Davis, vice president; Mr. P. E. Barnes, secretary; Mrs. Patti Hamilton; Dr. R. E. Turner, superintendent; and Mr. Gordon Hennington. Dr. Robert E. Turner Superintendent In only three years as superintendent of the Hamburg Public Schools, Dr. Robert E. Turner has many accomplishments to his credit. During his first year at Hamburg, the voters approved an increase in millage for the construction of a new high school complex. Last year on November 30, ground was bro- ken at the new 40-acre site and construction began. On September 1, 1972, the new stadium was dedicated and the Lions played on Campbell Field for the first time. Then on Friday, February 2, the high school moved into the new million-dollar facility. Th ree Principals Assist Superintendent Mr. J. W. Hall, in his twenty-fifth year at Hamburg High School, has proved many times that he is capable of handling his posi- tion. He has seen many changes in both the physical plant and the curriculum over the years. The new high school facility is truly a dream come true for him. Moving into the new building in early February was a smooth operation, thanks to his ability to organize. Shelby Harrod Middle School Principal J. W. Hall High School Principal Mr. Shelby Harrod spent fifteen years as head basketball coach before being named principal of the Hamburg Middle School three years ago. He has two jobs now and continues to produce win- ning teams while supervising 375 students and 15 teachers. Mr. B. W. Allbritton is completing his sixteenth year as principal of the Hamburg Elementary School. He has seen many changes in the school system dur- ing this time. Today there are over 600 pupils in grades one through five and 25 faculty members. B. W. Allbritton Elementary School Principal 15 High School Faculty Mr. Thomas Chapman — B. A.

One week is set aside when the incoming members have to wear dress shirts and ties, pull toy tractors and show special loyalty to their officers and other upperclassmen. Under the direction of their adviser, Mr. Franklin, these boys participated in parliamentary procedure and judging contests and were usually fortunate enough to bring honors to the school. They also enter- tained their fathers and the two F. F. A. Sweethearts at a fish fry. Future Homemakers of America The Future Homemakers of America was not only active in local chapter af- fairs, but they also participated in federa- tion and state activities. Cheryl Hollis was elected president of Federation XIV and Patsy Martin was a candidate for third vice president of the state association. A highlight of the year was the Mother- Daughter Banquet in the spring which the girls financed with several money-making projects. They also sponsored a welfare child at Christmas. The F. H. A. program theme for this year was ''Explore Roles—Extend Goals. Mrs. Harrod and Miss Lee were the club's sponsors.

Vickie High Student Library Assistants The Student Library Assist- ants is a volunteer service organ- ization. Its members assist Mrs. Smith in managing the library so the students and faculty will receive maximum library service. In addition to their daily du- ties, the assistants attended the district meeting in Monticello and the state meeting in Little Rock. Their service extended beyond the walls of the library when they sponsored a welfare child at Christmas. This group of workers was largely responsible for the smooth move from the old li- brary to the new one. OFFICERS President . Vice President Secretary . Treasurer . Reporter . Historian .

They ran errands, answered the telephone, collect- ed absentee reports, typed, and performed other routine office jobs. Standing are Betty Courson, Janice Atkins, Ginger Jenkins, and Sharon Davis. Suellen Wilcoxon and Vickie High are kneeling. Monitors The monitors gave of their study hall periods each day to perform a stu- dent service. Their duties consisted of greeting visitors, checking student passes, assisting the faculty, and running errands. Serving in this capacity were Katherine Madison, Charlotte Ware, Dan Allison, Betty Timmons, Lynn Ham- ilton, and Karen Noble. 33 Lionettes The Lionettes, along with the cheerleaders, spent many hours fulfilling their purpose — promoting school spirit. Every day the sixth period these girls could be found practicing cheers, learning new skits for pep rallies, or rehearsing pom-pom routines. The bus ride to out of town games was a time for fun and a noisy experience for chaperones — it was a warm-up for things to come. In addition to boosting the teams, the Lionettes and their sponsor, Mrs. McCay, were in charge of homecoming and the all-sports banquet.

This group of nine girls attended cheerleading camp at Ole Miss where they won three superior ribbons and one ex- cellent rating. The enthusiasm they exhibited at all pep rallies and athletic events was contagious. 35 Cubettes The Cubettes' participation in both basketball and football games paid off in victories for the Cubs this year. Thanks to the hard work of this group of girls, Melodies of Homecom- ing was a big success in the fall and the All-Sports Banquet was the climax of the second semester. Both activities were under the direction of the sponsor, Mrs. Sessions. Paula Spurlock won the title of Cubette of the Year. This honor goes to the girl who has contributed most to the organization.

If the student body let dow these nine girls came to the front and aroused the spirit. 37 Gymnastics Club The Gymnastics Club is the newest organization in the Hamburg schools. It was organized last year under the direction of Mrs. Jaggers. Members of the club work in four areas — tumbling, floor exercise, trampoline, and balance beam.

BAND ACTIVITIES Being a band member is a year-round activi- ty. This year's band attended the Region IV Band Festival, the Senior Clinic, played three concerts, and participated in numerous parades. During the first half of the year, the band played at all pep rallies adding much to the total school spirit. (See the picture at the right.) Several fund-raising projects were under- taken to finance a trip to Six Flags over Texas. The band traveled by chartered bus and had three fun-filled days there last May. Many long hours were spent preparing half- time routines for the football games. Practice sessions ran into the night before public con- certs. All this paid off as the band was well re- ceived by its audiences. Mr. Chapman is completing his fourth year as band director. 45 Junior Concert Band BAND PERSONNEL Mr. Thomas Chapman, Director FLUTES ALTO CLARINET BARITONES Faye Boyd Paula Gwin David Crouch Barbara Tucker Gregory Richards Claire Carpenter Patricia McQuay ALTO SAXOPHONES Larry Banks Carol Clark TROMBONES CLARINETS Kay LaGrone Martha Taylor Louann Robinson Jacque Pounds Phil Benson Randy Dawkins Jaci Kilcrease Thomas Carpenter Cleveland Cromwell Patricia Caine Mark Stanley Chris Kelley Pam Bierbaum Robert Cox Tara Harder TENOR SAXOPHONES Deboiah Crawford FRENCH HORNS Glenda Carter Benjie Allbritton Cindy Chapman Mike Brown Retta Starling Terri LaGrone Tina Forrest Robin Tanksley Travis Christmas Linder Johnson Marva Jo Tucker BASSOON TUBAS Annie May Hill Sharon Wilcoxon Marty Edgar Judy Wells Jimmy Funderburg Lora Leasure TRUMPETS Beth Hennington Guy Hughes DRUM SECTION BASS CLARINETS Barry Jones Brad Akers Randy Fischer Billy Swan Shelley Wilcoxon Randy Denton Steven Daniel Susan Vail Ronnie Brown Ricky Bozeman Randy Rutledge Ricky Hill Steven Harriman Abraham Shaw 46 Junior Marching Band Phil Benson Feature Twirler Carol Ann Clark Drum Major The Hamburg Junior High Band, led by Carol Ann Clark, drum major, and Phil Benson, feature twirler, performed at all the junior high football games.

Coach Johnny McMurry has several standouts re- turning this year as well as a number of new men reporting daily. Hamburg will host two track meets this year for the first time. A full season of relays and meets has been scheduled, beginning March 9 and ending in late April. SENIORS PROVIDE LEADERSHIP Jack McDonald, a senior, set a new school rec- ord of 12'9 in the pole vault at the Eudora Relays last year. He broke his own school record of 12' he had reached the year before. It is hoped he will set a new record for the third year in a row. McDonald and Danny Jeffers, another returning senior, were members of last year's 880-relay team Jack McDonald and Danny Jeffers get set for a trial run as other members of the team watch. 64 Records Are Made To Break Big Ronnie Collins finds the shot heavier than he thought. that set a new school record of 1:34 at the UAM Track Meet.

He set a new school record of 23.6 in the 220-yard dash. Returning veterans include Ronnie Collins, Henry Watkins, and Jimmy Griffin. DANNY JEFFERS HAS OUTSTANDING HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC RECORD Danny Jeffers is the only athlete in Hamburg High School to win nine letters. In addition to lettering in all three high school varsity sports — football, basketball, and track — all three years, he has been a standout in American Legion Baseball. One of his coaches said, Danny has been one of the most outstanding all-round athletes Ham- burg High School has produced in the last ten years. He is a real competitor in any event he participates in.

A WISH COMES TRUE; IT'S BASKETBALL AGAIN For the first time since 1966, Hamburg had both junior high and senior high girls basketball teams this year. None of the girls who participated in the program had ever had any experience in competitive playing. Steady improve- ment was shown as the season progressed, and the girls continued to practice after the final game with next year in mind. According to Miss Christy Bordeaux, coach, a full schedule is planned for the 1973—74 season. Senior girls, striving for improvement, continue to practice hard. 68 Returns to H. H. S.

Following the coronation ceremony in the gym, the royalty was entertained by the Cubettes and cheerleaders. The queen and her maids were special guests at the Hamburg-Monticello game that night. Mascots Jeff Kin- naird and Angie Streeter led Queen Tammy, who was es- corted by Co-Captains Reid Harrod and Bobby Harris, in the pre-game ceremony. The perfect end to a perfect day came when the Junior High Lions defeated the Hillbillies 24 to 0. The Junior High royalty also had places of honor in the senior homecoming parade the next day. Kelley Jo Clark Queen Tammy Bonds Lisa Carpenter Leigh Ann Akers Carla Crews Flo Jenkins Louann Robinson 74 Senior Homecoming Royalty Queen Mary Ellen Sink and her court were guests of honor at a program in the gym to open the homecoming festivities on October 20. The homecoming theme this year was Homecoming—Heaven Sent ' and the gym was decorated with the Lionettes' idea of heaven. The court was entertained with a dance by the Lion- ettes, a song by Barbara Spurlin, and a twirling routine by the majorettes. The program also included a pep rally led by the cheerleaders. Immediately afterwards, the royal party led the annual homecoming parade. In pre-game ceremonies that night, Mary Ellen was crowned queen before a capacity crowd by Lion Co-Cap- tains Ronnie Collins and Danny Jeffers. They reigned over the football game while the Lions continued their winning streak by defeating the Dumas Bobcats 36 to 19.

During Spirit Week the seniors went all out with their gigantic signs, bicycle parade, and loud mouths. Their efforts paid off when they were presented the spirit award at the Hamburg-Crossett football game. During their junior year, they broke all school records with their magazine sales, produced a play, and honored the seniors at a banquet. This year they entered a float in the homecom- ing parade, enjoyed a day away from school desig- nated Senior Day and finally received their diplomas. President . . Vice-President . Secretary . .

But there is one catch, you see; the annual room wasn't ex- actly the fun capital of Hamburg High. Many times it was a trying job, and without everyone on the staff, plus our sponsor, the LION '73 would still be on the drawing board. The real happiness came with the satisfaction I got when it was all over. I could say that it has been a pleasant year, just like all the other editors of past yearbooks. The only thing wrong with the above is that it's an understatement. Ask all the past high school graduates and they will tell you that their senior year was the most memorable of their high school days. The same was true this year. I could also say that this is the greatest yearbook ever. I would like to say that, but that decision is left to you. There will be some who like the yearbook because of the changes in it. Some may even call it great. Then there will be those who dislike all the changes. They may even say that it is bad, and they could be right, though I hope not. Many of you will remember it because of its green cover, but wouldn't you rather have one that didn't get lost in all the others that are either purple or white? There have been changes, and only you can decide whether its just another yearbook or a great yearbook. There are many memories inside the LION '73. There were football games, homecomings, basketball tourna- ments, district championships, tests, who's who; there were happy memories and a few sad ones; and there are memories that are not included in this yearbook that will be yours alone. All in all, this yearbook would not have been possible without a group of very special people. Without this group's patience, understanding, and advice, I might as well have dropped the whole idea of the LION '73. To this group I say, Thank you, students of Hamburg High School. Henry Watkins, Editor 160
