We stood behind our school — times were good or bad, happy or sad. We had the school spirit, man, yes we did, to be ON TOP OF IT 8 OPENING ■nmw 1 ' ■ ' OPENING 9 f 10 DIVIDER At an outdoor pep rally during organizational period, Allen Johnson, Walter Scott, and Trip Slappey enjoy a good roll call. Having great events during the second half of lunch such as the limbo contest, the field goal competition, and half-court basketball shoot. Having a first-ever Diego Day during football homecoming week. Screaming ourselves hoarse cheering the football team to victory. Getting rowdy at Pre-Games. In student life, we are ON TOP OF IT STUDENT LIFE STUDENT LIFE 11 STUDENT LIFE Trying to muster up sjpme Tst minute votes, Hal Bailey becomes despetaje nd reverts to violence by pulling out an axe on a terrified Miles Fortas. These terroristic actions paid off a s Hal defeated Wade Harrison in a very close race for Commissioner of Student Services. The Motley Axe of Spring Spring is tough, all right. Gorgeous weather entices the student into a lackadaisical mood and lures him away from his studies. And if the weather weren ' t enough, activities of all kinds divert the student from the books. Student Council election week provides a week of chaos, as candidates resort to any and all inducements to persuade students to cast ballots their way. The annual Spring Formal — last spring at the Racquet Club with the Generics playing — allows us to dance away more study time. The annual Student-Faculty Barbeque with baseball game and tennis match for entertainment is but one more diversion. Last spring we defeated Montgomery Bell in both sporting events. Last spring we saw over 1200 Latin scholars from across the state invade the campus for the state Latin convention. We gave up and called a school holiday. Somehow, though we managed to get it done. Despite the enticements and difficulties we stayed on top of it. A group ofMVS ' ers — Douglas Gayden, Andrew McDermott, Jon Van Hoozer, Reggie Rich ter , Man Loveless, Jack Ross, and Philip McCaull — joined hands with millions of other Americans across the nation in Hands Across America. Although the attempt to form a human chain across the country failed, millions of much- needed dollars were raised for America ' s indigent The bearded lady and the cyclops are exuberantly enjoying the state Latin convention held here in April, as shown by their joyful facial expressions. Young Lee digs into some well-deserved barbecue at the Student-Faculty Barbecue. Young was the official scorekeeper later during the baseball team ' s win over Montgomery Bell Academy. SPRING 13 One of the most memorable numbers was a wild and energetic dance to Maniac by these girls: bottom: Melissa Kirkscey, second row: Lisa Edwards, Whitney Grizzard, third row: Val Russell, Alison Tonkin, April Lamb, top: Kellye Krane The entire cast came back on stage for the finale and to take a bow to the thunderous applause of a sell-out audience. 14 STUDENT LIFE Musical Revue U With fantastic lighting, highly trained voices, and energetic dancing, Musical Revue II: Rock ' n ' Roll Is Here To Stay rocked in Hyde Chapel last May. Tracing the music and attitudes of American youth through the 50 ' s, the 60 ' s, and the 70 ' s, the talented cast packed the house three nights running. From Mindy Keyes ' opening Rollin ' on the River to Shelley Harrison and Ben Brunt ' s Devil Went Down to Georgia, it was non-stop entertainment. Favorite audience numbers were Bill White ' s Blueberry Hill and the Motown Medley by Kathie Johnson, Mindy Keyes, Amy Murrell, Karen Patterson, and Lacey Wadlington. Other show-stoppers were Amy Murrell ' s rendition of Memory and Kenneth Webber ' s hilarious readings of rock lyrics. Director Andy Saunders, good- humored but demanding, with Mr. Phillip Eikner (Costume Design), Mrs. Brenda Russell and Whitney Grizzard (Choreography), Mr. John Hiltonsmith (Music Direction), Bernhardt Trout (Lights), and Ryan Riggs (Stage Mgr.) provided the leadership for the veteran cast which included Carol Ann Carter, Cliff Goldmacher, Lee Harkavy, Andrea Sabesin, Jen McDearman, Michael Patterson, and Jonathan Ringel. Music was provided by a student band composed of Goldmacher, Grattan Brown, Tommy Garner, Mike Higginbotham, Jeff Schlosberg, and Julie Rim. Hey, bird dog, keep away from my quail! threatens Kenneth Webber as Trip Robertson and Brian Israel recoil in understandable terror, during a segment called Rock Lyrics Exposed. The audience rocks back and forth along with the cast during Andy Shelley ' s rendition of Rockin ' Robin. MUSICAL REVUE 11 15 The Student Council Garage Sale has become an annual fund-raiser in the summer. Council Advisor Mr. Michael Deaderick checks on the hour ' s sales with John Moore as Thomas Hussey and Mr. Don Walker look on. At the Exxon station next to Goldsmith ' s Oak Court, Student Council members Chris Sullivan and Ryan Riggs give finishing touches to one of the many cars washed during one of three Student Council summer car washes. 16 STUDENT LIFE Summer Blends 3 Work ■ Fun Exams are over. No more studying. No more pressure. No more school. So what happens now? Except for the unlucky ones sentenced to summer school, the classrooms are vacant. But from June to August the campus — as always — is crawling with students participating in camps, practices, and fund-raisers. Day Camp for boys ages 6 to 12 uses high schoolers as counselors. Cheerleaders must practice. Basketballers stay in shape. Footballers crank up in August. The Student Council mixed work with fun at three car washes and a garage sale held on the Student Lounge porch. Of course, no summer would be complete without some good old- fashioned loafing. But there were plenty of activities on campus to keep students in shape. Cheerleaders got started early in the summer. Virginia Reed sits atop David Gurley ' s shoulder in an early dance-routine practice. Day campers seem enthralled with Ramsey Hazemey ' s banter during a nature hike. Day Camp, run by Coach Jake Rudolph, always attracts over a hundred young boys, ages 6 to 12, to two three-week sessions. Giving an I. V. to a dog at the Germantown- Farmington Animal Hospital was but one of the tasks performed by Chris Joe, who worked as a lab technician four days a week during the summer. SUMMER 17 Part of the MUS-in-England group, Andy Rainer, Hal Bailey, Geoff McComic, and Mason Jones find a convenient rock-stop on a hike in the Yorkshire hills. Skiing near Les Diableretes in the French- speaking part of Switzerland is Dabney Collier, a junior. 18 STUDENT LIFE Spending part of his summer raising pigs on a farm in Moon Lake, Mississippi, Walter Scott examines his little porkers. On a hiking trip on Wind River Mountain Range in Wyoming, senior Geoff Butler participates in a project for the National Outdoor Leadership Association Over the Wall Students Escape Memphis, Travel Abroad Leaving Memphis in record numbers and heading in all directions, students once again participated in Summer Great Escape. Abandoning the swimming pool and golf course at the Memphis Country Club, the mindless movies like Top Gun and Rambo, the summer job at the University Club tennis courts and Adventure River, students took strong draughts of the exotic in England, France, Switzerland, France, and Germany. One of the most popular escapes continued to be MUS-in-England. Twelve students from Hutchison and MUS traveled to England with faculty sponsor Mr. Lin Askew for four weeks of study and travel. They began their month in London for ten days, traveled to Warwick for five days, and spent ten days in Yorkshire. Shakespeare ' s home in Stratford was a high point, and students especially enjoyed Stonehenge. They attended several performances of live theater such as a production of Romeo and Juliet and returned with greater appreciation and understanding of British culture. What a catch! Peter Goldmacher hooked this big one on a deep-sea fishing trip in the Gulf of Mexico. Covered with graffiti, some of it anti-Soviet, the Berlin Wall was one of the places visited by Brian Browder and Kepler Knott. SUMMER VACATIONS 1 9 Kicking off preschool practices, Val Russell and the other cheerleaders worked up to 5 hours a day in August. STUDENT LIFE The Freshman Orientation Test — a new school requirement to promote school awareness of the Fight Song, the MUS Hymn, and school history — is administered to these Freshmen by Mr. Mike Deaderick (for the 2nd time). A special Friday program was a performance of El Group Crioyos, a Venezuelan university-student folk- music group. Supposedly saying cheese, Robert Knapp is really smiling at the lovely young lady shooting his picture on SDPD. out the lights. The arty ' s over! Oh, does our tune change with the beginning of school! We exchange free, fun-filled nights for countless hours of pre-Calculus, Victorian Literature, Modern European History, and A. P. Biology. Days which used to start at noon now start at 8: 1 5. Afternoons previously I spent at backyard and club pools, Maywood and Florida beaches, tennis courts, summer camp, a courses are now spent in the somber confinement of classrooms. I lowever, the advent of the new school year does not entail all work. The Victory Dance, football games, pep rallies, School Day Picture Day, and practices — these help keep us sane. With both school and extra-curricular activities, we get on top of it all early. BACK- K ' ' 1 2I m. f 1 . — : . A hotplate lunch is available every day with entrees such as lasagna, spaghetti, fried chicken, country-fried steak, taco salad, monster dogs. Just past the steam table are cabinets for hot sandwiches and cold sandwiches. At times this area resembles sharks in a feeding frenzy. A smiling Will Jones waits for his turn at the hot-sandwich cabinet while Timmy Shin opts for the lasagna plate. Once students get their food, it ' s hurry up and wait in one of four check-out lines to pay. 22 STUDENT LIFE Workers behind the hot-food steam table serve up the meal of the day to students who want the plate lunch. Entrees have included chicken nuggets, roast beef, pizza, hamburgers, and turkey. A welcome addition to the daily fare is the salad bar. Highly popular among students and faculty, to the surprise of Dobbs management, the salad bar provides students the opportunity to make their own salad as individual tastes dictate. Good-by Lenti, Hello Dobbs It was bound to happen. It was inevitable. After sixteen years of serving up healthful meals, Mrs. Nell Lenti retired from her duties as doyen of the dining hall. Gone too are her workers who toiled with Amazon fortitude and nubian patience. Gone too are 25 t ice cream, noodle goo, and military regimen. Most tragic of all, many of us will never again know the full horror of the words lunch-room duty. We miss you, Mrs. Lenti. Your lunches were good, and the vanished traditions of your regime will continue to provide many a rich nostalgic anecdote at alumni get-togethers. The sharp pangs of loss were softened, however, by the People From Dobbs House, who now manage the Clack. With them have come options. No longer is it mandatory to eat in the cafeteria. Students may pay with cash, buy a Dobbs Card (like a trust fund without interest), follow the ABBC Program (foods are assigned letter- value), or bring their own lunches and just buy a drink or dessert. With multiple options has come greater difficulty getting into the Clack, buying food, and eating it within the alloted forty minutes. At times lines to get food or pay for it resemble traffic jams on the Poplar corridor. Student surveys i ndicate that the most popular feature of the Dobbs food service is the wide variety of food available for purchase and the variety of ways to pay for it. Waiting in line at the salad bar is a daily experience for many of us. Mr. Mark Counce is set to build his own salad as soon as he can get a pair of lettuce tongs. DOBBS 23 Looking disgusted in their defeat in the jello-slide contest, the Los Cornquistos (Dave Gurley and Kent McKelvey) try to contest the decision, while supporter Richard Hussey questions the decision also. One of the three bands of the Fest, Uncle Remus and the Tar Babies (Scott McArtor, Marc Gurley, Jason Hughes, Jeff Horn, and Tommy Garner) entertain the crowd with their motley collection of tunes. 24 STUDENT LIFE Jello Slide + Bands = Fall Fest Fun On a balmy September Saturday, the annual Fall Fest offered a fun-filled day to all who attended. Throughout the afternoon, three bands — Scott McArtor ' s (Uncle Remus and the Tar Babies), Todd Brown ' s, and Dan Shumake ' s — filled the air with all kinds of tunes. The Student Council ' s booths, which included a football throw, a golf-putting contest, kamikaze (one-on-one with foam bats), jail, the always-favorite car bash, and a bean-bag toss, were all very popular. For the first time, Fall Fest T-shirts were sold, which helped earn the $ 1 300 the Fest brought in. The main attraction was the jello-slide contest between the Los Coraquistos (Dave Gurley and Kent McKelvey) and Hal Bailey and David Evans. Even after much sliding in the jello and throwing it on the spectators, the contest still ended up in a draw. Another main attraction was the volleyball tournament, which was won by a team of juniors led by Jon Van Hoozer; other participating teams included two senior teams, a Student Council team, and a sophomore team. Finally the Council raffled off many prizes — $ 100 cash, several gift certificates, clothes, and the Win-A- Date contest with Diego Winegardner. All in all, the music, booths, and festiv ties made for a fun Fall Fest to remember. Trying to spike the ball, Jon Van Hoozer reaches for the sky, as Thomas Hussey watches Will Jones of the Student Council team slam into the net. In this first annual volleyball tournament, Van Hoozer ' s team (himself, Hussey, Scott McArtor, David Wilmott, Kevin Ogilby, and Gary Wunderlich) dominated the field, allowing no team more than 5 points. Claiming victory over the Los Cornquistos, Dave Evans and Hal Bailey celebrate defeat of their arch-rivals; Richard Hussey, a Cornquistos supporter, loudly boos them. Cheering on one of the Fest bands, Wendy Smith and the rest of the crowd enjoy the music in the late afternoon sun. FALL FEST 111 • y, • ■ —IT • t Dressing the Part It all started back in August. Rhett Necke and Billy Bob Treflan received notice that they had been accepted to MUS. No more cut-off jeans and Bon Jovi shirts for schoolwear, though. They had one week to find proper attire. If they were to be MUS students, they would have to dress the part. Their quest began at the Mecca of Mid-South shoppers, the Mall of Memphis. This is the story of that odyssey. Boy howdy, Billy Bob, said Rhett, That mall place shore is big! It is big, Rhett; about as big as your girlfriend, Thelma Liz. Once inside, they marveled at the lavish decor, the ice rink, and the huge number of sailors and marines. The first store they tried was U.S. Male. A sensual saleslady about their age had caught their eye. Hey, Billy Bob, let ' s do some snakin ' , said Rhett, who had already acquired some MUSspeak. Sensual saleslady LeeAnn proffered information: We don ' t get many MUS boys in here. They ' re all so cute, too. Let me show you what we can do for you. (Pictures 2 and 3 show just what LeeAnn did for Billy Bob and Rhett.) We ' ll sure be back now, you hear? But we ' ve got to look around a little more first, said Billy Bob. T ' £ f i 111 waa ■ «3 Hi xmf — . 1 y m L = ii§v ' W 1 T % } , ¥ w 26 STUDENT LIFE Woooee! That was some U.S. Female, whimpered Rhett. Around the corner was a store that looked promising: Guns and Ammo Freedom Fighters. All them boys are hunters; this must be what they wear, they reasoned. Let ' s try some of them clothes on. While Rhett posed next to a poster of Rambo, Billy Bob checked the MUS Handbook. Uh, oh. No camouflage clothes allowed, he said. Not to worry. Pete ' s Polyester Store would be just the place. They bought classic designer shirts and pants, but declined Pete ' s offer of religious paraphernalia when they realized that Pete had very few brain cells left. After an opening day fiasco modeling Pete ' s line of polyester, they were helped by several students to understand what real men should wear. Mr. Mike Deaderick taught them the word conservative. They found Oak Hall right across the street. They invested in Duck Head pants and oxford-cloth shirts. They looked boring, stale, and devoid of personality like all the other guys in the hall. They had found the true meaning of looking good and dressing the part. FASHIONS 27 With warpaint on his face, Diego Winegardener gives his approval to have his picture taken of his denim-clad body, as Geoff Butler, not dressed appropriately for Grub Day, tries to figure out what planet he is on. Always trying to show its spirit, the Senior Class, led by Craig Nadel, Diego Winegardener, Richard Hussey, and a widemouthed John Moore, attempts to do a wave during the Homecoming pep rally; unfortunately their spirit ran out by the fifth row. Smile! Both Homecoming Queen Lacey Scott and her date Mark Griffin pose for photographer extraordinaire Preston Dellinger. 28 STUDENT LIFE Football Homecoming Week ' 86 DAY 1 : Red and Blue Day. By sporting the school ' s colors of Harvard Red and Yale Blue, everyone was given the opportunity to show his true school spirit. DAY 2: Shade and Lid Day. A chance for all to flagrantly disregard a school rule and to adorn themselves with multi-color caps and Vuarnet sunglasses. DAY 3: Switcheroo Day (An Administration Special). To add to the hoopla of this week and to the troubles of the parents, students were forced to stay home while their moms and dads enjoyed school for a day. DAY 4: Diego Day (A Dave Gurley original). In order to mock the liberal yet stylish dress of Diego Winegardener, students got to see whether boots, tight pants, and open shirts looked good on them. DAY 5: Grub Day. With everyone looking as if they had gone to a Ratt concert, the culmination of the week could begin. During the traditional skit, Bishop Byrne recruits redneck Quarterback Jed Clampet (Dave Gurley) in order to give Byrne a fair chance in the football game. Jed does add much to the very fine Bishop Byrne football program; nevertheless this ingenious plot fails. That night at 7:30 on Hull-Dobbs field, the Owls rout the Red Knights 40-1 3, for the first victory of the year. At halftime, the court, composed of Lindsey Byers, Courtney Morris, Cassie Phillips, Paula Proctor, Val Russell, and Lacey Scott, and their escorts assemble at the 50-yard line to await the announcement of the winner. A few short minutes later Lacey is crowned Queen, and Lindsay is runner-up. After the victory, the students crowd the lounge to dance the night away (at least until 1 2) to the R and B sounds of Indigo Nowhere. October 6-10: a Week to remember. Always on top of it, Cassie Phillips and the rest of the cheerleaders erect a death-defying pyramid during the pep rally, while a dumbfounded BrianJJrowder and David Gurley look on in awe. During the traditional Homecoming Skit, QB Jed Clampet (Dave Gurley) explains to his fellow Bishop Byrnites (Andy Rainer, Bo Brooksbank, and Stewart Hammond) that their school will somehow defy the laws of Nature and beat MUS; however, MUS whipped them, and somebody had to eat a lot of words. Sporting the newest look in GQ, Tejas Desai shows off his spiffy wardrobe on Grub Day, as Paul Van Middlesworth, exhibiting the newest fashion in tie-dyes, gets a rise out of the centerfold in his locker. FOOTBALL HOMECOMING 29 Giving it that extra effort, Andy Girard strains to reach his max as Douglas Gayden lends a helping hand during football Phy-D. i M J30mi I AFTER HOURS An Array of Activities At 3: 1 5 the final bell of the day rings. Students flood the halls to proceed to their after-school activities. Be it football practice, the newspaper, or club meetings, most students are doing something school-related even after hours. However, our after-school activities are not restricted to weekdays. Saturdays at MUS buzz with productivity as well. Yearbook and darkroom staffs, stage crew, and soccer players are hard at work. Pretending to appear business-like, seniors Diego Winegardner and Craig Nadel take a moment to give us a GQ pose before the YMCA Youth-in- Government district meeting at MUS. After a grueling summer cheerleading practice, Lindsay Byers, Lacey Scott, and company show their good posture and nice teeth during a well- deserved break. At the Student-Faculty Dutch Treat Dinner at Pete and Sam ' s, Mr. Terry Shelton tries a bite of manicotti. An effigy of concentration, senior Philip Harbin practices the fight song for an upcoming pep rally during an afternoon Pep Band practice. AFTER HOURS 31 After-Lunch Activities Just what goes on during the second half of lunch? The Student Council uses this time for many activities: forums limbo contest lounge jams half-court basketball shoot field-goal kick frisbee throw Explaining the differences, n their schools ' academic programs, these students from Central, Trezevant, and White Station participate in the Student Exchange Day forum. Ignoring all distractions, Peter Monaghan makes his way under the broomstick to win the limbo contest for the second straight year. Entertaining a large crowd, the band of Jason Fair, Duncan Meredith, Brian Yates, and Todd Brown performs renditions of REM. Keeping his eyes on the basket, Jody Scott gets a running start at the half-court basketball shoot. 32 STUDENT LIFE £r M . ■■. ' « With Dave Evans holding, Jeff Horn attempts a field goal from 20 yards out. With perfect form, Hal Bailey hurls the frisbee as far as possible. 2ND-HALF OF LUNCH 33 On the Read Again Planning for the Dining Room and The Brick and the Rose started back in September when Mr. Andy Saunders and Mr. Rip Eikner decided to produce two one-act plays. The Dining Room is a lampoon of American middle-class life that is set in a typical dining room. Each actor and actress is required to perform a number of different roles. Jay Ostergaard was the perfect upper-class father while Tripp Wilson and Spence Medford were noted for their flamboyancy. The other one-act play, The Brick and the Rose, is a riveting drama commenting on the helplessness of youth in the big city. The playwright, Louis Carlino, conveys deep messages about drugs, love, and the cruelty of urban society. After a Saturday night performance at MUS, The Dining Room was performed during a Friday chapel here at school, and at St. Agnes. The Brick and the Rose traveled to St. Mary ' s; Gallatin, TN; and Richmond, VA. Resulting from the trip to Gallatin, MUS has yet another State Championship trophy to add to its trophy case. In November a group of MUS, St. Mary ' s, and St. Agnes students presented the play The Brick and the Rose to a panel of five judges. Obviously these five were extremely impressed by the students ' performance, as they awarded the cast the first-place medal for the best production of the competition. The judges were impressed not only with the play as a whole but also with the efforts of the individual actors. Both Joel Pope and Richard Wanderman were named to the All-Star cast, which is composed of the top ten high school actors in the state. Garnering the distinguished title of Best Actor was Craig Nadel, who was surprised to have received the award because of the large number of great actors from the other high schools represented. The acting troupe, under the guidance and direction of Mr. Saunders and Mr. Eikner, took the play to the regional tournament in Richmond in early March, but, unfortunately the group did not win the chance to represent the Southeast in the national competition 34 STUDENT LIFE A starry-eyed David Gold stares into space in the background as Joel Pope and Karen Patterson share a tender moment in The Brick and the Rose. Using force to subdue the Gimp (David Gold), Tommy (Joel Pope) and Al (Craig Nadel) grasp him while Tony (Jason West) and Freddie the pusher (Richard Wanderman) look on. Raising a ruckus, the entire cast of The Dining Room makes mincemeat out of Heidi Spruytenburg ' s birthday party while Tripp Wilson is forced to seek shelter from unidentified projectiles. Acting on the vehement suggestion of his father, Spence Medford displays the attributes of a gentleman while properly seating Jennifer Griffin. ONE-ACT PLAYS 35 Basket ball Homecoming: Dynamie Here ' s a rundown on the events of Basketball Homecoming Week 1987: Inclement Weather Day: Monday. Because of an abundance of snow and ice on the ground and roads, school and Homecoming Week were both called off — but just for one day. Red and Blue Day: Tuesday. The traditional day for students to show their spirit by wearing the school ' s colors of Yale blue and Harvard crimson. Shade and Lid Day: Wednesday. A day for all to adorn themselves with Rayban sunglasses and multicolored, multishaped hats such as Mickey Mouse ears and Caterpillar caps. Tahaiti Shirt Day: Thursday. Letting students go Polynesian in the middle of winter increased the hoopla of the Week and made students think about their upcoming Caribbean cruise. Grub Day Ticket Day: Friday. With everyone dressed in their scummiest clothing, the climax of the whole week could begin. During the traditional Homecoming skit, Levi Garrett (Kent McKelvey) was suddenly thrust from his redneck public school environment into the conservative private school atmosphere of MUS. Though his whole experience was just a Twilight Zone dream, Levi nevertheless was thoroughly confused. During Chapel one day, Levi heard the announcements of Will Jones (Brian Browder) Kepler Knott (himself) and Mr. Omundson (Andy Rainer). Later, Levi, because of his unorthodox manner and dress, was brought before the administration — Mr. Omundson, Mr. Peters (Kyle King), Mr. Russell (David Gurley), and Mr. Deaderick (Hal Bailey). After Levi was thoroughly yelled at by the administration, his Twilight Zone dream (nightmare to him) ended. That night, the Varsity Owls edged the Collierville Dragons 56-52 in OT to up their record to 9-8. At halftime, Courtney Morris, Cassie Phillips, Amy Moss, Elise Black, Katie Buckley, and Lindsay Byers and their escorts gathered at center court to await the announcement of the Queen. A few minutes later Lindsay Byers was crowned Basketball Homecoming Queen. That night in the Clack Dining Hall, the Wooly Mammoths, made up of several MUS alumni, filled the air with all types of music; those who attended danced the night away (or at least until 12:30). Homecoming ' 87: A dynamic week. Lashing out at Mr. Peters (Kyle King) for his lack of aggressiveness toward the corrupting influence of Levi Garrett (Kent McKelvey), Mr. Deaderick (Hal Bailey) informs Mr. Omundson (Andy Rainer) and Mr. Russell (Dave Gurley) that Levi is a threat to (his) conservative way of life. As Upper Schoolers and their dates dance the night away in ecstasy, the Wooly Mammoths, led here by Grattan Brown, David Meeks, and Posey Hedges, fill the Clack Dining Hall with the Beatles, the Stones, and REM. Coming forth to make another announcemen t about the CRC handbook and soda pop cans, Mr. Omundson (Andy Rainer) expresses his extreme displeasure about ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise all over the lunchroom. 36 STUDENT LIFE Smiling because shehas just become Homecoming Queen, Lindsay Byers gives Gary Wunderlich a big hug, while he thinks that she won because of his support. As everyone anxiously awaits her answer, Amy Moss responds to the penetrating queries of Donnell Cobbins and Jim Boals in a CCTV interview of candidates for queen. My name is John, yeah, yeah, yeah! Melissa Kirkscey abuses John Moore about Jennifer Miller, as Ragan Crawford, Amy Phillipy, and Melanie Orpet wait for their turn in the infamous but ever popular Roll call. BASKETBALL HOMECOMING 37 As Brandon Williams tries to make a move on Trisha Roddey at the Lower School dance, Patrick McCarroll warns him to keep away from his woman. Playing Kurt von Trapp in The Sound of Music, seventh- grader Cort Winsett walks Maria (Kim Justis) down the wedding aisle to marry his widower father. 38 STUDENT LIFE Hull ' ers Get Down As most Upper School students remember it, life in the Hull Lower School was sheer boredom. But in truth, the Lower School is filled with numerous activities that students can participate in. This year, the MUSTA ' D ' s presentation of The Sound of Music had many parts for aspiring young actors. Those who did not perform in the play could show off their talent in the Civic Service Club Talent Show. The athletically-inclined eighth-graders could take part in football, basketball, tennis, or track. In the social aspect, the Lower School Student Council sponsored their annual dance held in the Upper School lounge. Contrary to popular belief, the Lower School is truly . . .On Top of It. Making the most of his study hall, Bo Morgan rests his mind for the next class. Showing his violin playing expertise, Wilson Chuang is the sole performer from the Lower School in the Civic Service Club Talent Show. Having a rowdy good time in the Coke corner, Tim Johnson and Jimmy Harris lead the eighth-graders in a rebel yell. LOWER SCHOOL 39 40 STUDENT LIFE Soul Mam ' The Blues Brothers, consisting of Ryan Riggs and Billy Palmer, sing and dance en route to tying for first as the Most Entertaining act. Though at first fighting to see who has the better music, Willie (David Gurley) and Julio (Kent McKelvey) eventually discover that their musical styles are agreeable to each other; for their peacemaking efforts, they tied for first as the Most Entertaining act. Eventually winning first place, Ben Brunt, dressed like a Gypsy, plays the piece Csardas on his violin. Blood Drive and Talent Show Charity Week ' 87 From February 2-7, the Civic Service Club ' s annual Charity Week raised over $ 1 600 for various charities. The events of this week began with a pizza sale, run by Mark Fogelman. On Thursday, the Lifeblood bloodmobile came out; about 25 students volunteered to give their blood in return for their Civic Service Club point and a Lifeblood T-shirt. That Friday during Chapel the phenomenal River City Rollers, a wheelchair basketball team, played the Senior team. The Rollers out- rebounded, out-passed, and out-shot the hapless student team, although the Rollers won only 60-54 (the Seniors onl y having a 50-point spot). On Saturday, the annual Rock-a- Thon was held, in which 20 dedicated students spent their day in rocking chairs for charity. Also during the day, a Special Olympics basketball camp featured an 8-team basketball tournament and a clinic by Fred Schaeffer. Finally the Talent Show packed the Hyde Chapel on Saturday night. The Talent Show featured four bands, one skit ( The Whore of Mensa ), two violinists, one pianist, and several soloists. First place went to violinist Ben Brunt, second place went to Weber Chuang, who played the piano, and third place went to soloist Tiffany Hughes. The Most Entertaining award was a tie between the Blues Brothers (Ryan Riggs and Billy Palmer) and Julio and Willie (Kent McKelvey and David Gurley). Overall, this week benefited not only many charities but also the many students who participated. Dazed from losing so much blood, John Ed Ogles begins to slip into a coma in the Charity Week blood drive. Feeling the heat of a full-court press, Brian Browder looks to pass the ball as he is gradually trapped by the River City Rollers. CHARITY WEEK 41 Friends Forever Common goals, common experiences, common trials and tribulations — such are the raw materials of friendships. And the friends made in the crucible of Life in the Lower and Upper Schools become friends for life. Painting our faces and getting rowdy at a Regional basketball win over Ridgeway, cramming for exams in late- night sessions, working together to put out the Owl ' s Hoot, building sets for The Sound of Music, shooting the bull in the foyer during a free period, eating together in the Clack every day, suffering through an informative Friday chapel — they all add up to make friends that stick closer than brothers. A beautiful autumn afternoon — perfect weather for an all-out Nerf football game among freshman friends Martel King, Edward Ro, and Rajeev Memula. The grass oval in front of Hyde Chapel provides ideal boundaries. Hard work brings people together. United in their common goal as Student Council executives, Jody Graham, Hal Bailey, Dan McEwan, David Gurley, Bo Brooksbank, and Richard Hussey got to know each other ' s strengths and weaknesses quite well during the school year. Getting rowdy at a post-season basketball tournament — nothing seems to bring students together quite as well.

Beginning the season with a week in Florida, the team played an exhibition game against Gulf Breeze, beating them 6 to 3. Their other game against Pace, however, was cancelled. The strength of the team was hitting, with Kevin Tilley and Andy Wright batting strong and Greg McGowen cleaning up. Pitching was also solid with pitchers Chad Parker, David McCollough, and Kevin Tilley. Outstanding in the field was Andy Wright, who with his good arm, played a strong center field. Highlights of the season included the 1 2 to 5 win over visiting MBA from Nashville and the game against Harding at Collierville during which Kevin Tilley hit 2 homeruns and pitched a 2- hitter, giving the team a shut out win, 10-0. Of importance also were the 2 wins the team had over Collierville and the 2 wins over Bishop Byrne. Throwing some fire of his own, starting pitcher Chad Parker delivers to a Dragon batter in a 9-6 home win over Collierville. Thomas Hussey is ready to go either direction at shortstop.

Winning four of their first eight matches nine to love, the team volleyed its way victoriously through the season before losing two matches, one to perennial nemesis Chattanooga Baylor and one to Shelby County rival Germantown. Unbowed, the team bludgeoned the remaining competition and made the District and Regional Championships all MUS affairs. In the District Tournament, John Morris defeated teammate Dylan Black, 6-1 , 6-0, for the singles title, while fellow team members Marty Felsenthal and Allen Graber battled for the consolation prize. In the doubles competition it was once again an all-MUS court when Morris and Black defeated Felsenthal and Joel Morrow in the final round. Duplicating their district confrontation Dylan and Morris faced each other in the Regional singles title match with Morris stroking out a hard- fought victory, 3-6, 7-5, 6-4. In doubles action, the dynamic team of Morris and Black back-handed their crosstown rival and defeated the CBHS team of Gross and Mariencheck, 6-4, 6-2, to bring the Regional Crown home. Putting just the right top spin on the ball means handing another opponent a defeat for Dylan Black, senior on the 1986 team.

Super Year! Team 2nd in Region, King Wins State Mile After evaluating his track team in two early-season meets, Coach Bobby Alston set a goal of winning the Regional title. Five weeks later Alston ' s goal eluded his grasp as his team dropped a 100-99 decision to McNairy Central High in the Regional competition. Despite the loss, the team boasted several outstanding athletes. The most notable was Kyle King, who sailed out of his sophomore-year doldrums and docked back at MUS with a State Championship. During the season, King established himself as the Region ' s top 800-meter runner and was second in the 1 600-meter run behind Catholic ' s Mario Wells. In a surprise upset, King defeated Wells for the State 1600 title. King was recognized for his efforts with the Robert J. Hussey Track Most Valuable award. In other strong year-end performances, Mark Cox posted Regional victories in the 400-meter dash and anchored the 1600 meter-relay victory; pole vaulters Will Jones and Pat Kelly shocked the Regional field with a 1-2 finish; seniors Andy McCarroll (discus) and Elmore Holmes (2-mile run) took 3rd-place in their events in the Regional meet. If your best ain ' t winnin ' , then your best ain ' t good enough! says Coach Bobby Alston during a meeting with the team one afternoon. Since Alston became head coach in 1 983, the team has placed first or second in the Region every year. Andy McCarroll ' s discus throw punches a hole in the heavens at the George Barnes Invitational. Although he threw a very impressive 1 5 8 ' 1 0 during the season, McCarroll was kept out of the State meet with a 3rd-place finish in the Region.

After their first loss of the season to CBHS in a very close duel, 295-293, freshman Sellers Shy shot a 74 to help the team to its fourth victory against Catholic. After posting an 8-6 record against excellent competition, the team was ready for post-season action. In the district, medalist Scott Sherman led the team with an impressive 301, as the team won the district over early season foe and runner-up ECS and 7 other teams. Dan Hartman with a 79, Greg Rhodes with a 75, and Jody Scott with a 74 assisted Scott in the tremendous 4-shot victory. Next up, the linksters headed to the region where they finished third. Other players contributing this season were Chris Sullivan, Hank Holmes, and Alan Moore. Averaging a 75.4 for the year, sophomore Greg Rhodes tries to put his fairway shot on the green at Fox Meadows. With Jody Scott and Scott Sherman looking on, a CBHS golfer hopes for his carefully studied putt to drop. GOLF 81 In a futile effort to gain yardage, Tommy Ferrari of Germantown is quickly stopped by Jason Hughes (20) and Scott McArtor. Reaching for the sky, Dan McEwan snags a Thomas Hussey pass as an astonished Catholic defensive player watches his expert cover blown. 82 SPORTS Owls Get Off to Slow Start Stiff Competition, Inexperience Hinder Coming off last year ' s state championship season, the Varsity football team was little prepared for this season ' s results. In the very first game, Briarcrest upset MUS 17-13 for the first time in 8 years. With the Saints leading 10-0 in the fourth quarter, the team quickly scored twice, once by a 2-yard John Ed run, and once by a Thomas Hussey to Scott McArtor pass. But on the ensuing kickoff, Jeff Fite had an 83- yard TD return, sealing the Briarcrest victory. The offense executed well, gaining 297 yards, while the defense limited Briarcrest to just 82 yards rushing. The Owls faced perennial AAA-power Germantown the next week. The potent pass-run combination of Stegall and Ferrari gained 406 yards and scored 3 touchdowns. Yet the offense performed well, having 1 55 yards passing. The 2 Owl scores came from a Thomas Hussey run and from a 47-yard Scott McArtor reception. But the team could not amass enough points, and fell 21-13. Traveling to Brentwood the next week, the squad was looking to end its 2-game skid. The game was tied at the half 7-7, with MUS ' only score coming from a Hussey to Hussey pass. The team felt that the game was within reach, but 2 Brentwood touchdowns in the fourth quarter ended its hopes as the Owls lost 21-7. The defense, led by Hal Bailey, Diego Winegardener, and Will Stratton, held the Eagles to just 74 yards passing and intercepted 3 passes. Behind the impenetrable blocking of Walter Scott (34), Robert Knapp, and Toby Semel, Thomas Hussey is able to dump a pass off to Scott McArtor. Racing through the rain, Walter Scott (34), receiving blocks from John Moore ( 1 3) and Ray Hayles (30), runs for a big gain as the much bigger Harding player just rolls after him. Hitting a hapless Tupelo player both high and low, Scott McArtor ( 1 5) and John Moore break up a long Tupelo pass. Fine defensive coverage like this held Tupelo to just 1 yard passing. VARSITY FOOTBALL 83 The outside having been closed off, David Stegall kisses the turf after he tries to elude linebacker Will Stratton. Showing great defensive skill, Dave Evans (60) and a host of other Owls bring David Stegall down. After the handofffrom Thomas Hussey, John Ed Ogles rushes toward the wide hole made by Dave Evans (60), Walter Scott, and the rest of the offensive line. With holes like this, the backfield gained 1 28 yards against AAAA- ranked Tupelo. 84 SPORTS Two More Tough Losses Owls Wheel and Deal on Bishop Byrne, 40-1 3 The squad, facing AAAA-power Tupelo, played its most perfectly executed game of the whole year. The first half was very bleak, as Tupelo held a 21-3 lead (our only score coming from a Matthew Crosby FG). But MUS reached the end zone twice in the third quarter. Walter Scott scored off of a quick 3-yard sweep, while a Hussey-to-Hussey pass hit paydirt. But a Wave TD midway through the fourth quarter sealed a victory for them, 28-1 7. The offense gained 244 yards and had only 1 turnover; the defense held the ever powerful Tupelo offense to just 1 76 total yards and just 1 yard passing. After a 2-week rest, the Owls began district warfare against Catholic. After 3 quarters the contest was scoreless, but 2 quick Charger scores in the fourth quarter gave them a victory 10-0. The team stopped its 5-game skid by romping Bishop Byrne, 40-1 3. At the half, the Red Knights were leading 1 3-6, MUS ' lone TD coming off of a 55-yard reception by McArtor. But the second half was all Red and Blue. In quick succession, Ray Hayles, Richa rd Hussey, Walter Scott, Scott again, and Thomas Hussey all scored, giving the team a run of 34-0 in the third and fourth quarters. 7 defensive players — Marc Gurley, Jack Ross, Diego Winegardener, Pat Hopper, Will Stratton, Jason Hughes, and John Ed Ogles — all had over 8 tackles apiece. Getting blocks from John Ed Ogles (42), Walter Scott, and Mark Griffin, Thomas Hussey unloads a pass to Dan McEwan on the far side. Protection like this in the Germantown game gave Thomas time to find holes in their secondary. Although David Stegall thinks that he is very elusive, Jon Van Hoozer eludes his very big blockers and makes a one-on-one open field tackle. VARSITY FOOTBALL 85 Owls Sharpen Talons on District Prey Owls Find Dragons, Lions Good Eating; Eagles a Little Tough Playing Collierville in the last home game of the year, the Owls vanquished the Dragons 28-7 before 1000 loyal, energetic fans. In the first quarter, the team quickly turned a Dragon turnover into a TD (Andrew McDermott scored on a 5-yard run). McDermott found the sacred turf again in the second quarter, and John Moore also took a pass 26 yards for the score. During the third, T. Hussey ran 10 yards for the Owls ' final score. Collierville finally scored late in the fourth, but the outcome still remained a lopsided 28-7. The offense executed very well, having no turnovers and gaining 289 total yards. The Owls extended their win streak to 3 as they destroyed Harding 14-0 on a very wet and cold night. At the end of the first quarter, Moore scored off an 1 8 yard reception, capping off a brilliantly engineered 10-play, 81 -yard drive. In the second period, McDermott fell on a Lion fumbl e in the end zone, giving the team its final TD. There were no TD ' s in the third or fourth quarter by either team, as the Owls went on to shut the Lions out. Despite the rainy weather, the team gained 1 78 yards (9 1 passing, 87 rushing) and had only 2 turnovers. The defense, led by Gurley, Bailey, Skouteris, and Ogles held Harding to just 76 total yards and recovered 6 fumbles. Facing ECS on Halloween for the final game of the season, this contest would decide second place in the district. The Eagles scored first on a 16- yard run, but a Matthew Crosby field goal in the second quarter made it 7-3 at the half. ECS scored once more in the fourth quarter, yet MUS still made a very strong comeback. With 1:13 left in the game, Ogles went over the line for a TD, but the 2-point attempt failed. With the score 14-9, the team tried an onsides kick, which was nearly recovered. In retrospect, the 3-6 record was not indicative of the talent of the team, but rather of the strength of its opponents. As a Harding player breaks for the open field, Diego Winegardener clotheslines him and makes him eat the mud of the rain-drenched turf. Gang tackling, the whole defensive line, led by John Ed Ogles (42), Dave Evans, and Diego Winegardener, converges on a hapless Tupelo player. 86 SPORTS VARSITY FOOTBALL (3-6) 13 Briarcrest 17 13 Germantown 21 7 Brentwood 21 17 Tupelo 28 Catholic 10 40 Bishop Byrne 7 28 Collierville 14 Harding 9 ECS STATS 14 Rushing — Scott 446 yds. 2TD ' s McDermott 1 88 yds 2TD ' s Ogles 176 yds.

VARSITY FOOTBALL 87 Winners Frosh Beat CBHS; Crush ECS, Byrne Possessing more potential than any other ninth-grade football team in five years, this team tied the best freshman team ' s record in nearly ten years (5-2). Coaches John Cady and Steve Leuze led the footall team to this outstanding year. The CBHS game was basically a defensive battle between two good teams. MUS scored first with a long pass from Coors Arthur to Chad Kelsey, and then Kelsey made the extra point. With almost no time left, CBHS scored off a kickoff return, but their extra point was blocked. A week off affected the game against Briarcrest. Although MUS scored first with another pass, the Briarcrest team scored in the last seconds of the game. The Germantown game was the first time we outplayed them and still lost, remarked Coach Cady. The game was very close until the end, with Germantown leading. A good scoring drive was stopped short by a fumble. Playing Bishop Byrne was the turning point for the team. Against this team, the players finally came together, mounting an unchallenged score of 26 to Byrne ' s zero. One of the better freshman games occurred against Collierville. Coors Arthur and Philip Wunderlich connected to score some twenty points. MUS scored all of its 2 1 points against Harding in the first half. Then the reserve team held on for the remainder of the game. The ECS game was the most nearly perfect freshman game I have been associated with, remarked Cady. MUS beat ECS 34-0. Collierville attempted to make a comeback and eat freshman Buzzard meat in the fourth quarter. However, outstanding defensive plays, like this one made by Stevan Black, changed the Dragons ' minds for them.

For the extra point that decided the game, Coors Arthur holds the ball steady for kicker David Billions in the 7-6 victory over CBHS. FRESHMAN FOOTBALL 89 Electrifying Small Team Plays Big The 8th-grade football team, the smallest in 5 years, had an excellent 6-1 record due to its hard work and determination. Coaches Dan Griffin and Troy Benitone again ran the Varsity offense and defense. In the first two games against White Station and St. Louis, Carter Campbell ' s and Trevor Benitone ' s running made the difference. Against both Briarcrest and Kirby, the team had to make last-second scores; a long TD pass from QB Rhodes Scott to Harry Sayles gave them a victory in the Saints game, while a TD in the last five seconds against the Cougars (twice their size) sealed the victory. The team ' s lone loss came against a very lucky Collierville team, which got a few breaks. The Ridgeway and ECS games were pushovers, with the 2nd- string playing a lot. Key players were end Chris Lassiter, cornerback Brad McArtor, soccer-style kicker Tom Hutton, and running backs Carter Campbell and Trevor Benitone. Guiding the eighth-grade team to a 6- 1 record was veteran coach Dan Griffin. At halftime of the St. Louis game, Coach Griffin gives words of encouragement mixed with admonition to Harry Sayle and others. Making an unusually painful but effective tackle is Burton Milnor while Trey Watkins deals with another St. Louis player. After intercepting a pass, Rhodes Scott sprints down the field for a touchdown in the St. Louis game. Leading the way and looking for somebody to block is Trevor Benitone (44). 90 SPORTS Runningback Carter Campbell skirts right end for good yardage in the 1 9-6 victory over St. Louis.

CROSS-COUNTRY 93 Rough Start 7 Losses Open Season Before Team Jells 0-7 through the first seven games. The major problem was the lack of team play, but the SBEC win was a springboard off which the team went 19-4 the rest of the season, winning league and district titles. During the East Memphis Classic, the Owls really jelled. After a close loss to CBHS in the first round, the team went on to beat Briarcrest and Collierville. Tied with the Brothers at the end of the third quarter at 38, Wade Harrison fouled out with over 6 minutes left in the game, and CBHS went on to a 1 7 to 6 fourth-quarter spree and the win. In the first-round consolation game against Briarcrest, we went 1 9 of 25 from the line. With good free-throw shooting and Kevin Ogilby ' s 2 1 points leading the way, the Owls went on to a 59 to 54 win. In the consolation finals, the team beat Collierville 60 to 40 behind Ogilby ' s 18 points. The always tough Kirby Cougars ended the little spurt in a tough battle at Kirby. The Owls then bounced back to crush White Station 75-67 as Wade Harrison scored 27 points and John Moore dished out 8 assists. A smart player with a characteristic but somewhat unorthodox jump shot, junior Tommy Payne (sometimes starting, more often coming off the bench) gave the team big lifts — especially against zones. Senior leader Wade Harrison, remembered more for his silky smooth inside offensive play, played big on the defensive end as well: Here he rejects a White Station player ' s jump shot. Wade had 47 steals for the year, second best on the team. With nearly 500 career wins, the dean of Shelby County coaches, Jerry Peters, instructs his players during a time-out in the District Tournament play at Harding. MUS teams always reflect the demeanor of the man they play for: intensity under control. K.O. for a typical two against Kirby. With the legs of a linebacker, Kevin Ogilby ' s best offensive move was to flash across the paint, catch the ball on the move, head fake, turn, and shoot a whisper-soft, high-arching jump shot over a confused defender. K.O. led the team in scoring with 526 points in 29 games for an 1 8. 1 average. He set a school record for field-goal percentage (63%), 197 of 3 13. 94 SPORTS All-District Tournament wing player Jon Van Hoozer leaps to pass to Jeff Ruffin at the high- post.

Junior wing-man starter Fred Schaeffer releases another flat-trajectory, long-range jumper for two against Harding. When Fred gets hot, look out! Fred ' s superlative defensive play, on the baseline or on the wing in our typical 1-3-1 zone helped make that defense an effective antibody that alternately repelled or engorged opposing offenses.

In the second game against Harding, the team hit 1 8 of 24 free throws and collected their fourth win of the season. The Owls then buried ECS, Catholic, and Bishop Byrne to even their record at 9-9. Before the second half of district play started, MUS beat Ridgeway and Briarcrest. Good team defense held Ridgeway standout Orien Watson to just 1 3 points, well below his 25-point average. In the Briarcrest game, Fred Schaeffer ' s 14 points gave the Owls win number 1 1 . As the district play got underway again on Homecoming night against Collierville, the combination of Tommy Payne ' s 14 points off the bench, including a 5-point spree, and our perfect 12 of 12 from the line helped defeat the Dragons 56-52 in overtime. Against ECS the Owls put the Eagles down with the help of Jon Van Hoozer ' s 3 steals and Ogilby ' s 20 points. Against Catholic, Jeff Ruffin, filling in for a sick Ogilby, improved our record to 1 5-9, with his 7 rebounds and 6 points. Jason Peters scored 1 1 points as the team buried SBEC; both Tommy Payne and Fed Schaeffer scored 10 points in the final regular-season district game, as the Owls beat Byrne. The tough play of John Moore at point guard and good defense from Jeff Ruffin and Jason Peters, both from the bench, gave MUS a 10-0 district record. Senior reserve Jeff Ruffin spelled Ogilby and Harrison when they were in foul trouble or needed a breather. Playing well, particularly in the first half of the season, Jeff led the team in free-throw percentage (84%), hitting 32 of 38. Go getcha a shower, big guy. Rejecting yet another shot, Kevin Ogilby was the team leader in rebounds with 21 1 in 29 games, a 7.3 average per game.

Losing twice to bitter rival CBHS, the Owls were embarrassed by the Brothers 41-29 at MUS. Coach Lin Askew was puzzled by the team which possessed so much talent but merely showed up at their games. However, the young Owls worked hard, and the second half of the season was a different story. Led by the revived shooting of Coors Arthur and Philip Wunderlich, the freshmen came out on fire. Jonathan Rowe, Scott Peterson, and Brian Livingston provided the inside game which gave the team seven victories out of the last eight regular-season games. A win against Germantown on Alan Moore ' s last-second shot seemed to spark the team as it went into district play. With solid play the Owls beat Harding and Grace St. Luke ' s in the first two rounds of the district tournament played at Briarcrest. The stage was set for yet another meeting between the Owls and CBHS. Both teams played exceptional defense, and the Brothers led 19-1 5 at halftime. Realizing that they could do more than just stay with the Brothers, the freshman Buzzards played with confidence and took the lead 25-23 at the end of the third quarter. The hot shooting and good execution continued, and the team held off CBHS to win the game 38-32. Brian Livi ngston and Scott Peterson were named to the All- Tournament Team while Philip Wunderlich was named the Most Valuable Player of the Tournament. Picture-perfect jump-shooting is evidenced by Coors Arthur in one of his typical 20-foot base- line shots. A solid addition to the team, All-District transfer Brian Livingston lays it in for two in a 47-30 win over Catholic while Jonathan Rowe looks on.

Showing perfect form, Rhodes Scott arches his nothing-but-bottom 1 2-foot jumper while Graham Sexton (44) and Trey Watkins maneuver into position for the rebound (just in case he misses) in this hard-fought 37-29 loss to a much bigger Craigmont team. 104 SPORTS Determined Team Improves Often lacking the size of their opponents, the eighth-grade basketball team made steady improvement over the course of the season. Of the last seven losses, five were by four points or fewer. It just so happened that our three toughest opponents — Harding, Craigmont, and Pendleton — had excellent teams this year, said third- year coach Guy Amsler, In fact, nine of the team ' s sixteen losses were delivered by those three teams, but early season blowouts became respectable games toward the end of the season. Highlights of the season included a two-overtime win over St. Dominic ' s, three wins over ECS (one in the Shelby 7-8 Tournament), and a 27-9 pasting of Woodland Presbyterian. Starters included Clay Maddox and Martin Hussey at guards, Robb Meyer and Rhodes Scott at forwards, and Graham Sexton at center. Graham played a good part of the season with a mask because of a broken nose. Pumping the ball, Robb Meyer prepares to go up for the easy layup in this 3 on 2 fast break against ECS in the Shelby League Tournament.

Several individuals had stellar seasons. Robert Brode went undefeated in dual matches, taking firsts in the Kirby Festival, the Raleigh-Egypt Invitational, and the District tournament. Finishing second in the Regional, Robert qualified for the state but was unable to wrestle because of a back injury. John Van Heiningen placed first in the District, fourth in the Regional, first in the Raleigh-Egypt, and second in the highly competitive Bishop Byrne, and qualified for the State tournament. Peter Goldmacher finished third in the District but came alive in the Regional, losing in the finals in the last ten seconds to place second and qualify for the State. Members of the varsity wrestling team cheer encouragement at the dual match with Bishop Byrne at MUS. Although wrestling is very much an individual sport, enthusiastic team support helps.

In organizations, we are ON TOP OF IT ORGANIZATIONS ORGANIZATIONS 109 Council Keeps Busy Under the creative leadership of president Richard Hussey, the Student Council worked extremely hard all year long providing the student body with many services and activities. The year began in June for Hussey and his crew as the Council held three car washes and a garage sale that raised nearly twenty-five hundred dollars. In the fall, the Council sponsored the Victory Dance the second week of school and another Homecoming Dance a few weeks later. During the winter months the Council held a half-court basketball shoot won by senior Jon Neal, Basketball Homecoming Dance, and Student Exchange Day with students from Briarcrest, White Station, Central, Ridgeway, Trezevant, and Hutchison. Finally, in the spring the Student Council held its annual Spring Formal at The Racquet Club just before handing down the gavel to next year ' s Student Council.

STUDENT COUNCIL 111 Veritas Honorque MUS boasts achievement and success because its students maintain high expectations of one another. Part of this expectation of excellence involves the Honor System, an institution which fosters the belief that trust and friendship are predominant among students. The students elected to the Honor Council serve as representatives of this system, and it is their job to maintain and encourage acceptance of an Honor Code which dictates that students not lie, cheat, or steal in school. The desire for personal integrity at MUS is universal. The most important asset of the Honor System is, of course, the students. Without wide-scale student participation, the system would fail to exist; it is this fact that attests to the scale of excellence at MUS. Students maintain a high level of responsibility at school, both to themselves and others, and it is this special sense of pride which envelopes the Honor System. This is what makes MUS unique.

These are just a few of the many activities the Civic Service Club held this year. Under the leadership of president Andy Rainer, the Civic Service Club gives students the opportunity to leave the protective environment of MUS to help their community, according to Rainer. The Civic Service Club gives us the chance to give something back for all that we receive. That ' s the best thing about it, says Rainer. Obviously students feel the same as Rainer as we donated around 40 pints of blood during Charity Week and nearly twenty people rocked at the Rock-a-thon. The Civic Service Club donated its hard- earned money to organizations including the Food Bank, the United Way, and the River City Rollers.

We did features on fake IDs, the Germantown Police Department, and TV evangelism, issues that we thought would interest the students, according to feature editor Marty Felsenthal. Jim Boals credits the success of this year ' s newspaper to his hard working staff and editors.

Then-editor Ned Reaves selected the book ' s theme — On Top Of It — a theme, which, for this book became increasingly ironic, finally even ludicrous, because no deadline was ever met and the Opening spreads were submitted in March, a month past what was to have been the final deadline. There were some editors who were nearly on schedule and therefore deserve commendation: Brian Browder (Seniors), Brian Yates (Faculty), and all the Underclassmen group (Lester Lee, Carl Morrison, Rajeev Memula, Bobby Kuo, David Varner, Manning Weir). Tremendous efforts were given by Howard Sklar (Photography) and Michael Windland (Darkroom). Paul Boyle and Kent McKelvey did good work in ad sales and money matters. Prasad Jallepalli ' s Academic section is an engineering feat of no small difficulty. A lot of unsung heroes are the guys who put together the Student Life and Sports sections (see page 223). In March Ned opted to manage soccer, leaving the remaining 100+ pages (about l z the book) for someone to do. Into the breach stepped junior Jeff Lewis, Index editor. Advisor Ellis Haguewood said, Jeff immediately provided a quality the book had not had all year — student leadership. He really saved us when most of the rats had jumped ship and were swimming toward the better colleges and universities. Jeff commented, We were really bad off in several sections, particularly Sports where editor Sidney Cheung hadn ' t done anything at all on his 36 pages. We began work on Sports in April and finished that section and the rest of the book by exam week in May. The 1 987 Owl is probably not such a bad book. But not getting it in May leaves a bad taste in everybody ' s mouth. Ten years from now, it probably won ' t matter.

YEARBOOK 115 It Was a Good Idea Sparked by a stroke of genius last spring, Mitch Loescher planned to produce the first ever video yearbook. According to Mitch, The purpose of the yearbook was to allow the students to view the major events of the year on a VHS or Betamax system from the comfort of their own couches without having to waste all of that energy flipping through the pages of the annual. While Mitch and his editors were very enthusiastic about their project in the fall, when winter came, motivation dwindled and the video yearbook was cancelled. Mitch feels that the idea of a video yearbook is a very good one and hopes that sometime in the future there will be a video yearbook. Making a final check on all their expensive equipment, Richard Bang and Keith Woodward prepare to do some editing for the Video Yearbook.

Published in early May, the literary magazine featured short stories, essays, poetry, and artwork. The MUSe faced the task of bettering last year ' s edition, which garnered top honors in the Columbia Press Association competition. I am really pleased with last year ' s results, said Dan Hartman, and I see no problem in continuing our winning tradition. Once again the MUSe offered fifty-dollar prizes for the best entry in each category, stimulating interest among students. Because of a deficiency in the volume of Lower School entries, monetary prizes were added for the seventh and eighth graders. This year ' s section editors — Jim Boals, Brian Yates, Will Harris, Graig Nadel, Scott Soloway, Prasad Jallepalli, and Mark Fogelman — made valuable contributions to the success of the MUSe by narrowing down the student body ' s numerous entries into a 38-page magazine. Said Dr. Caldwell, It has a chance to be the best ever. Proofreading the MUSe, Dan Hartman, Dr. Jane Caldwell, and Prasad Jallepalli give their final critique before the MUSe is sent to the publisher. Close interaction between the staff and the advisor (Dr. Caldwell) helps produce a better MUSe.

They sacrificed their week-ends and some of their free periods to print needed pictures and develop film, two jobs vital to the survival of the yearbook and the newspaper. The CCTV, under the leadership of Mitch Loescher, helped students every day. They recorded and played programs at the teachers ' request. And if a student happened to miss the first showing, they would play it back for him at his earliest convenience. They also helped in the making and showing of the Homecoming Hot Seat. The Photography Staff, under the guidance of Howard Sklar, took all the pictures for school publications. Exhibiting his expertise in photography, Lester Lee shot a picture of this random piece of scratch paper when he had some film to waste. Working diligently, as always, on a Saturday morning work session, Mike Windland prints some pictures requested by a yearbook editor. VISUAL MEDIA 119 Gov ' t. Club On the Move The Government Club continued its long-standing dominance of the Tennessee Youth-in-Government organization as Brian Browder was elected governor of the prestigious group. Browder, Craig Nadel, Diego Winegardner, and Tripp Wilson led the club to another successful year at the Rhodes College Model United Nations January 23-25. Student participation grew to an all-time high at Sunday meetings of the city- wide Youth-in-Government Club at the Mason YMCA. According to Nadel, We tightened many of the rules this year in order to make sure that those students enrolled in our club were active and interested, and we still finished the year with a huge membership. Another student received a state-wide honor related to the Government Club. Senior Walter Scott was elected governor of Boys ' State over the summer. He feels that it was a great honor and adds yet another channel for MUS students to learn about politics and government. As Robert Knapp looks on Diego Winegardner hands out Model U.N.

The ever-popular FCA breakfast attracted more and more students with the addition of girls to the early morning gatherings. Those who could withstand getting up before the 6:45 starting time for each breakfast were treated to heaps of eggs, mountains of biscuits, and all the milk he or she could drink. The breakfasts concluded with inspirational messages delivered by speakers including MUS graduates, teachers, and even one former Chicago Bears football player. Another joint function between the MUS FCA and the Hutchison FCA was a picnic at Whitney Grizzard ' s house. The students dined on chicken and biscuits and played games such as volleyball and badminton. The joining of the MUS FCA and the Hutchison FCA seemed to be well-enjoyed by both groups as each helped the other get stronger as the fellowship and membership increased. As Hutchison students Whitney Grizzard and Melissa Kirkscey stare in amazement, Ray Hayles returns for his fourth helping at an FCA breakfast.

GOVERNMENT CLUB AND FCA 1 2 1 That ' s the SPIRIT Red and blue will conquer you! Led by third-year cheerleader and captain Lindsay Byers, the cheerleaders once again raised football and basketball fans to their feet in order to incite the teams to victory. According to Byers, We tried to be very creative this year with our cheers and dance routines. We threw together a lot of new cheers and had some great dancers. While the yell leaders only cheered at football games this year, they succeeded in their mission to get rowdy, according to captain Kent McKelvey. Our mission was to get rowdy and to get the crowd rowdy, and I think we pretty much did the job. The pep band also contributed to the rowdiness of the crowd at pep rallies and football games. At the emergency pep rally the morning before the ECS football game, the pep band was on center stage.

Cum Laude, the highest academic honor a student can receive, inducts those who uphold the society ' s motto — Excellence, Justice, and Honor. This society requires an outstanding grade-point average. The National Honor Society recognizes only those students who demonstrate leadership, scholarship, service, and good character. Well-roundedness is the key factor for induction. Quill and Scroll inducts talented journalists involved in school publications. These students must display superior skills in writing as well as maintain a high academic average. Mu Alpha Theta honors those with exceptional aptitude and enthusiasm in mathematics and promotes competitive mathematics activities. Mr. Eugene Thorn and the faculty chose those seniors who have shown exceptional service and leadership in school for induction into The Red and Blue Society. Expounding on his latest accomplishment — induction into Cum Laude — Marty Felsenthal gestures in the manner of Leonardo da Vinci as Jim Boals, Jeff Blumberg, and Kenneth Weiss watch and listen.

The highlight of the year for the French Club occurred during Spring Break when Dr. Reginald Dalle took a group of students to France. According to Dr. Dalle, The trip was a great success. Everyone had a good time, and we got to see many things most people simply see pictures of. The Latin Club also had a very eventful year. In May, Latin scholars traveled to Maryville, Tennessee to compete in the State Latin Tournament. Returning stars from last year ' s outstanding team were Jeff Lewis and Presad Jallipalli, as Mrs. Betty Jo Higgs and Mr. Wayne Duff expected the team to finish quite well. On a Wednesday afternoon just after the last bell had rung, Dr. Dalle and the French Club met to improve their knowledge about the French culture and the French language.

The Mechanics Club, sponsored by Mr. Tom Brown, spent many a Saturday morning repairing cars as students learned the basics of automobiles and how they work. During the fall the Darts Club held two dart tournaments, both won by former MUS-in-England participants Mason Jones and Will McGown. According to McGown, We spent a lot of our time in England mastering the skills of darts so I think we had a definite advantage. The Chess Club completed another outstanding year, competing in many local and state-wide tournaments. Many trophies were awarded to Mr. Thorn during Monday morning chapel because of the expertise of experienced members such as Mike Windland, Howard Sklar, and Danny Wilson.

While it may appear that the Lower Schoolers wander aimlessly around their new environment, many Lower Schoolers are actually very involved in their new school. They join clubs to further themselves academically, to further their skills, and simply to have fun. Under the leadership of President Paul Todd, the Lower School Student Council held many activities, including the magazine drive for St. Jude ' s Children ' s Hospital, the Thanksgiving can drive for the Civic Service Club, and the annual Lower School dance. The Lower School version of the Latin Club had a Yo Saturnalia Christmas party and traveled to the state convention in Maryville, Tennessee. For the academically elite of the Lower School, the Junior Beta Club once again held fall and spring inductions for those who met the grade requirements.

So clubs were formed for the Lower Schoolers who want to become better skilled in their hobbies, clubs for the sheer purpose of having fun. The Half Hoot newspaper came out once and its staff reported solely on Lower School life, Lower School sports, and anything else that concerned the Hull Lower School. A new organization was formed this year to help relieve the many burdens of the Upper School photography staff and its editor. The Lower School photography staff, under the guidance of editor Chris Walker took the group and candid pictures having to do with Lower School clubs and sports teams. For the Lower Schoolers who want to take a break from their busy schedules or those whose callings in life are to be book makers, the Lower School version of the Pick-The- Winners was a good club to join. The club held contests to see who could pick the most collegiate football and basketball games correctly. On top of another assignment, Paul Todd and editor Chris Walker attempt to capture the essence of Lower School life, naivete. After receiving thai week ' s Pick-The- Winner club sheet, Michael Kim correctly picks Mississippi State over Memphis State.

They were all stops on American History teacher Guy Amsler ' s four- week tour of Germany. Mr. Amsler described West Germany as much the same as the United States. The major difference is that you ' re made much more aware of the political tensions — you ' re on the front lines of the Cold War. Mr. Amsler had no hesitation in saying that the highlight of his trip was Berlin. West Berlin, Mr. Amsler said, compares to the party sections of New York or London while East Berlin was like a museum in dictatorship. You even have to pay the equivalent of fifteen dollars to enter the city. Relaxing during his tour of Germany, Mr. Guy Amsler poses with a street sign in Berlin. FACULTY 137 faculty Mr. MarkS.

Thanks to Mrs. Alice Franceschetti ' s introduction of the insect collection, Biology students can now identify a majority of those smashed insects. During the fall and spring, Biology students can be seen scurrying through the fields with nets in order to catch those much desired elusive insects. Why insect collections? First, students become familiar with the taxonomical key. Second, students learn to notice details since most of the observations are made with a magnifying glass. Usually after completing a collection, a student will at least look at an insect before stepping on it, said Mrs. Franceschetti. Known for her time-consuming insect collections, Mrs. Franceschetti proudly poses with the bugs her biology students captured and a bug net. Mrs. Alice F.

Its scintillating pea-green color alone is enough to draw one ' s eye, but when that color is coupled with its more than unique shoebox shape, it demands attention. Its proud owner is Mr. John Hiltonsmith, teacher of choral music and music appreciation, and owner of not only that 1953 Hudson Jet but also a 1950 Hudson Pacemaker. Mr. Hiltonsmith has described the Pacemaker as looking like an aerodynamically reversed upside down bathtub. He is also the regional president of the International Hudson- Essex Terraplane Club. Promotion and finding parts for other members are among his duties as president. Mr. Hiltonsmith first became interested in Hudsons when his parents bought a 1950 Hudson Pacemaker when he was young. I can remember my parents always talking about cars, and my brothers and I naturally became interested in them. Looking sharp in his 1953 Hudson Jet, Mr. John Hiltonsmith proudly drives around the campus. 140 FACULTY . faculty Mr. Andrew Saunders Theatre Director, Bible 7; Science 7, 8; Speech. Mr. Curtis R.

The school has purchased a new Apple He computer for both Miss Easum and Mrs. Edwards. Now processing administrative notices takes half the time that it used to take. With the efficiency of their jobs drastically increased, do they have more time to relax between typing notices and writing memos? No, answered Mrs. Edwards. Now it seems we have twice the work in half the time. Eagerly awaiting the final bell of the day, Mrs. Edwards works through another program on her new Apple He computer. 142 STAFF staff Robert Watson, a friend to students for over twenty-five years, is known for his friendliness to students, loyalty to the school, and pleasant demeanor.

Privileges — the Essence of Seniority To me, the essence of being a senior at MUS is exercising my senior privileges. Most seniors echo Sid Evans ' remarks on these long-awaited liberties. Cutting in front of the line for lunch typifies a privilege of the reigning elite. Seniors often exercise their independence of airplane food by hitting McDonald ' s, Pizza Inn, or Longneckers. Following an incredible lunch, a contented senior occasionally cuts his class either to enjoy a filled belly or to study for an upcoming test. During the spring, the seniors are allowed a school holiday. Seniors are also allowed to be exempt from their exams in any class in which they carry an eighty-five or better second-semester average. Eating at Subway, a popular senior hangout, Paul Boyle watches in amazement as Marty Felsenthal inhales his third Footlong sandwich. SENIORS 145 Pre-games Parents, we apologize if your humble abode was pulverized by a pre-game — a weekly event filled with seniors, loud music, and wild women. Pre-games occurred at homes vacated by unsuspecting adults for various reasons. Before athletic events such as football games, basketball games, and even wrestling and soccer matches, we assembled to entertain one another before arriving fashionably late and utterly obnoxious at the specified event. Through active participation in pre-games, many seniors acquired new friends and prospective dates. As John Moore, President of the Senior Class stated, Pre-games have really made this class a tight group. Every weekend I see someone different at these parties, and they ' re always having a great time. Invading Andy Rainer ' s once-peaceful home, an obnoxious mob of seniors mugs for the camera at one of the infamous pre-game parties before the ECS game.

Yes X No And that ' s how it began. In the fall of their junior year, the class of 1987 was advised to participate in the Student Search Program by checking the Yes box on the PSAT exam. Within only a few months, letters promising a great educational opportunity were flooding in from institutions such as Campbell University, New Mexico Institute of Mine Technology, and even Deep Springs College. Most letters were endless dittos of the same offer: Come to Deep Springs College and receive the education of your life. You will become a part of the Deep Springs family, blossoming within our community of twenty- four undergraduates. What do we do with these gracious invitations? Says Brian Browder, I just chunk them into an old drawer that I can open up whenever I need a good laugh or a boost of confidence. In a fit of frustration, Dennis Hughes attempts to get out from under the tremendous load of college mail he has received by hurling it across the room.

Fred: Uh, yes sir, I ' ve been kind of busy with football and all. Mr. Boelte: I see, so where do you want to io to college? Fred: Well, I was kind of thinking about applying to UVa, W and L, and Columbia. Mr. Boelte: Well you and I both know the reality of things. Let ' s go ahead and scratch them out. How about Washington University in St. Louis or maybe even Skidmore? Fred: Well,! — Mr. Boelte: Good, well you need to hurry and get those applications rolling. By the way, you can use the Common Application for all these. Ah, what a wonderful device. By the way, whom have you asked to write your letters of recommendation? Fred: Well, no one yet. I was thinking about asking Captain Davis or Robert. Mr. Boelte: Hurry and get that done. (Telephone rings.) Hello, just a second. Fred, you ' ll have to leave now. This is a confidential call.

BOARD SCORES — series of tests that demonstrate how you will do in college; scores can be improved when tests are taken for the second time (ask Sylvester Gray for more information). CLASS RANK — lower if you take harder courses; guaranteed to go down if you sign up for A.P. Physics, for example. COMMON APPLICATION — according to resident college-admissions counselor-guru, the best thing since sliced bread ; can be used by even those, like Pip in Great Expectations who seek to be uncommon. ESSAY — an opportunity for you to communicate a portion of your personality to us says one college application form; an instrument which makes you memorable as a person, but do it in fewer than 250 words, please, because we have a quick memory. EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES — be sure to sign up for lots of these because they look good on your college transcript. Stuff like yearbook staff, photography staff, MUSe staff, Civic Service Club, Pep Club impresses college admissions people and they ' ll never check to see whether you did anything or not. INTERVIEW — meetings with an admissions officer from or an alum of a college; sit up straight, look him in the eye, speak in well- modulated tones, talk about solving world hunger, regurgitate your application, use words like involvement, commitment, pluralistic. SECONDARY-SCHOOL REPORT — from MUS to the college; just the facts, ma ' am, none of your own free-base fabrications, now; sometimes spelled R-E-V-E-N-G-E by an administration tired of putting up with your pre-pubescent antics.

The End After a 9:30 Baccalaureate at Second Presbyterian Church and lunch at the Summit Club or another suave culinary establishment, the class of 1987 assembled in the gym of Second Presbyterian Church at 4:00. Filled with students, faculty, and board members, the gym sounded as if a pep rally were taking place. Stomachs were twisting as seniors struggled to make their robes appear immaculate. At 4: 1 5, everyone lined up alphabetically in two-by-two lines like we were graduating from kindergarten instead of from high school. At precisely 4:30, the cavalcade triumphantly marched into the packed auditorium to the tune of Pomp and Circumstance. After a long hour of listening to speakers including Sidney Cheung, the valedictorian, each senior received his diploma from Chairman William Buddy Morrison and triumphantly shook Mr. Thorn ' s hand. The tumultuous trek through Memphis University School was over. By 5:30, we were alumni! 156 PEOPLE John S.

Whether the topic is Faulkner, Poe, O ' Connor, or Steinbeck, a student must spend many hours researching and writing one of his longest compositions ever. The researching begins at the library, which soon becomes a second home to the student. He strives to meet all the deadlines that the teachers sets. Often, the student becomes frustrated because he feels unable to handle the pressures of writing a term paper, but when he finally finishes it, his anxieties are released, having accomplished a major goal. His relief, however, is only temporary; this term paper is only the first of many in his academic career. Having put off writing his term paper until the last moment, Lester Lee rushes to complete his final draft.

The tests were supposedly given to promote school spirit. The ninth graders were given a sheet to study about 3 weeks before the test, so one Tuesday during Organizational Period, all the ninth graders walked into the Hyde Chapel. It was then that Mr. Mike Deaderick, who masterminded the test, announced that to pass, one had to make a perfect score. Many students walked out smiling.

Students groan as they flip to the correct page, wondering whether they will ever survive the rest of the year in Latin I. Every Lower Schooler is required to take Latin when he reaches the eighth grade. Mr. Wayne Duff, one of the school ' s two Latin teachers, maintains that, Latin is a valuable learning experience. Some students may question the validity of this statement, but others actually find meaning from this dead language and continue the Latin saga by taking Latin II, III, and IV in the Upper School. Those students who can ' t get enough of Latin during school hours participate in the Latin Club. Although Latin I is not a required course in the eighth grade (or any other grade for that matter) at most other schools, it has become a tradition in the MUS Lower school. In the enduring words of Mrs. Betty Jo Higgs, Latin is not a dead language; it is immortal. As a picture of the Roman Coliseum stares down at him, Trey Watkins works diligently at increasing his Latin status. 1 78 UNDERCLASSMEN Having been told to clean the chalkboards in Afterschool, Wes Perkins and Brian Lindseth comply — by cleaning the erasers on themselves. fc tfc4.fcA 1 Damon DeSio Will Deupree Spencer Dillard Ross Dyer Ryan Ehrhart M A Shea Flinn JeffFreas Nicholas Getaz Ben Gibson Hunt Gillespie Jm kA.

The Penultimate Percussionists earned the honor of opening the Concert Choir ' s Christmas Concert with their two pieces which drew ringing applause. With great enthusiasm, the Penultimate Percussionists practice for their performance in the Christmas Concert.
