IT TAKES ALL KINDS Nitro High School Nitronian 1986-87 IT TAKES The 1986-87 Theme It Takes All Kinds was relevant to all. Each individ- ual student played a unique part in mak- ing the year a success. The special ideas, hidden talents and outgoing personali- ties that were contributed were woven together to make up an outstanding stu- dent body of Nitro High School. It was then shown just how important everyone was in achieving the goals that had been set for a memorable year at NITRO HIGH SCHOOL! Listening to teachers and sitting in classes for almost a whole year was a trying way to spend a student's time. Being around an academic atmo- sphere was not the only way to gain an education. Individual's hobbies and interests of Nitro students were a ma- jor part of this development as well. All kinds of activities like skate- boarding, modeling, part-time jobs, and more brought students out of their daily routines to become part of an ex- citing lime light. By having done all the things it took to make our student body unique. Nitro had enjoyed a wonderful Student Life in 1986-87 FSA WINS HOMECOMING PARADE COMPETION The Homecoming Parade, headed by the Ni- tro Police Department, consisted of the class and club cars, and of course their escorts. The deco- rating of the cars started after school on Friday and finished just before the parade. There were some beautiful decorations, but only two awards could be given. FBLA President, Julie Fraser, presented the Senior Class of 1987 the award for the class car. FSA was presented the award for the club car. Robert Hager and Sis Billings reluctantly posed for a picture. FSA had the winning car. The Marching Band of NHS was skillfully led by Kippi George.

IT’S IN YOUR FACE You don’t have to tell how you live each day. You don’t have to say if you work or play, A tried, true barometer serves in the place, However you live, it will show in your face. The false, the deceit you bear in your heart Will not stay inside, where it first got it’s start. For sinew and blood are a thin veil of lace, What you wear in your heart you wear on your face. If you life is unselfish, if for others you live, For not what you get, but for how much you give, If you live closer to God, in His infinite grace, You don’t have to tell it, it shows in your face.

HOMECOMING EXCITES ALL It took all kinds to bring this years homecoming together. Although the Wildcats suffered a defeat to the highly rated Dra- gons, the activities were extremely successful. The people who made our homecoming a success should not be overlooked. So at this time we would like to thank the faculty and boosters for their much needed help, it was greatly appreciated. To bring this annual event to an exciting end. Student Council President. Jeff Starkey, had the honor of crowning the 1986-87 Miss Wildcat.

SPIRIT WEEK Considering the vast number of par- ticipants in spirit week, the Homecoming activities were extremely successful this year at NHS. During spirit week, the students demonstrated that it takes all kinds by dressing in different attire for each day. Monday started the week designating beach day. Various articles of clothing were displayed such as sunglasses, ber- muda shorts and tee-shirts. On Tuesday each class distinguished itself by wear- ing specific colors, seniors wore green, juniors yellow and sophomores donned orange. Wednesday was character day and everyone came dressed as his favor- ite character. Thursday the students got relaxed on sweatsuit day.

Due to the fact that many couples went out to dinner at some of Charleston’s finest restau- rants, there were many late arrivals. It is a tradition at Nitro High to elect a Snow Queen. At the entrance of the formal, there were ballots with a list of every senior girl attending the dance. After the ballots were collected and coun- ted, the 1987 Snow Queen was announced. The second runner-up was Rena Moore and first run- ner-up was announced to be Stephanie Billings. The 1987 Winter Formal Snow Queen was Mi- chelle Layne. Congratulations Michelle! After the formal, many couples went bowl- ing, or attended the Midnight Movies dispite the fact that it was snowing. Everyone really enjoyed themselves, and it was a safe and exciting evening for Nitro High. Afterall, with a sponsor like Mrs. Norman, who could go wrong. Top Left - The sign says it all.

Entering the field, the band ex- cited the crowds with the quick paced tune “Showdown,” Next, Twirler Missy Honaker held the au- dience’s attention with her feature R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A.” Then the corps, led by Head Majorette Bridget Sapp, marched to “Hands Across the Sea.” The performance concluded with the majorettes marching down- field while the band played “Apollo. The majorettes excelled in origi- nality with their rendition of sailors and USO girls during war-times with the tunes Anchors Aweigh and “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy.” For this, the majorettes received a well de- served third place trophy.

Mike Robinson looks on with amazement. 20 FMC Special Project Manager, Chuck Taylor, made a personal inter- est to get involved in the advancement toward students understanding busi- nesses. Taylor asked for company sup- port and received exactly that. He met with Specialty Chemical Divsion Man- ager, joe Acker, who liked the idea and agreed to help. Now the partnership between Ni- tro High School and FMC is well on its way. This partnership also includes 37 other schools with participation from 30 FMC employees. The plant organized a Shadow Day” where 40 Nitro students spent half a day following the activities and daily routines of an employee of their choice. Participating employees included for- men, lab technicians, traffic managers, the office staff, and the plant nurse. Chemist, Terry Willis, a former teacher, made suggestive improvements for the school's popular chemistry classes and helped to demonstrate chemical analy- sis. FMC BREAKFAST FMC NITRO This year the annual FMC Breakfast at Nitro High school was, of course, an- other big success. Every year high offi- cials from FMC join with some of the fac- ulty of Nitro High School along with four members of the National Honor Society. The students chosen to attend the FMC Breakfast were Todd Hudnall, Kathy Allison, Mark Hudson, Scott Withrow.

A brief invoca- tion was led by Reverend Wade Austin. Immediate fol- lowing this invocation, a tradi- tional Thanksgiving dinner was served. As they enjoyed their meal, the show choir per- formed a selection of popular 50’s hits including ‘Who Wrote the Book of Love?”, Sea of Love , and The Lead- er of the Pack.” A smile ap- peared on many of the elderly citizens' faces as they remi- nisced about the “good ol’ days . After the show choir finished its grand perform- ance. Mr. Rhuel Craddock of Toastmasters International presented certificates to the Student Council members who had completed a leader- ship course. Among these re- cipients were: Melissa Sim- mons. Nancy Higginbotham. Bridget Sapp. Wendy Wysong. Kippi George. Jeff Starkey, and Rob Absten. Also in atten- dance were Mayor At Ashley and a number of members of the Nitro City Government. Although this gay festivity came to an end. its memory will always remain in the hearts of everyone. The Student Council spon- sored this charitable event. Not only should the Student Council be recognized, how- ever. but so should our cooks: Evelyn Asbury. Wands Steele, and Macil Rhodes, the success of this activity would not have been possible without their full cooperation. Shari Snyder and Bob Higginbotham romantically gaze across The Sea of Love. Mrs. Judy Fortner willingly prepares food for the Thanksgiving Dinner. The show choir does their version of Who Wrote the Book of Love? for the Senior Citizens.

They painted an intriguing Christmas scene on the doors of the New York Belt Connec- tion, Each student expressed great enthusiasm as he worked on the mu- ral. They perfected every detail until it became virtually flawless. Finally, after extensive hours of work, their masterpiece was complete and ready to be admired by the world. The Charleston Downtown As- sociation, the proud sponsor of this event, commended the Art Club for “a job well done”. They described it as being a wonderful addition to their holiday decorations. Even many surrounding businesses CHRISTMAS praised them for their beautiful art- work. There is no doubt that the Art Club's attribute to these projects was immensely appreciated by every- one. The people who participated were: Ms. Drema Watts, head of the Art Department, Shannon Adkins, Kerry Gerkin, Laura Goff, Sherry Heikal, Mark Kinsey, Pam Sadler, Doug Rohmiller, and Anthony Smith. Ms. Watts, with hesitation, agrees upon Anthony Smith s plea to paint. Kerry Gerkin concentrates on each stroke of her paintbrush. Mark Kinsey has hopes of becom- ing another Leonardo de Vinci. Pam Sadler is dreaming of a white Christmas. The Nitro High School Art Club masterpiece—it certainly is worth more than a thousand words. 23 The word academics” represented all kinds of activities at Ni- tro High School during the 1986-87 school year. A great tree with many limbs would have been the best way to describe academics at Nitro High. Each individual limb held a branch in the development and nurture of the students which form- ed the roots to a prosperous future. A large limb with many branches, that grew at a rapid rate, rep- resented mathematics at Nitro. All kinds of courses from general math to advanced placement calculus formed this ever intriguing and necessary portion of a great tree. A full limb with many healthy leaves represented the English Department at Nitro. Average and advanced English. Creative Writ- ing. and the ever-loved Classic Literature” developed this well rounded limb into an outstanding branch of a great tree. Science on this great tree formed a bright, brilliantly colored limb full of never-ending fruit. Experiments, formulas, and an in- teresting teacher made these classes an unforgettable experience full of discovery. The oldest branch on this great tree was formed by the history and social sciences department. People, places, and events, from the beginning of time to modern day affairs, were split into all kinds of classes to be a lasting reminder of an age old past. Academics will always remain a major part of Nitro High. 24 25 Steve Aronson Nancy Bonnett lames Campbell Nancy Casto Tom Chaney Sarah Christenson EXPERIENCE IN Helen Davis Larry Estep Judy Fortner Judy Fortner Judith Gillian Coletto Groves When did you say you graduate?

AIMING TOWARD Larry McMillian Ann Meredith Charles Moses Cinthia Norman Benjamin O’Gorman Carman Peters When school started in Septem- ber, it meant only one thing to some people - hard work and this hard work meant trouble. Sophomores ar- rived with the hopes of easy classes and less homework while returning students looked forward to easier schedules. As the first month of school pro- gressed, some students felt that they didn't belong in Mrs. Gillian's En- glish class, Ms. Leurant’s Biology class, or Mr. Wood's Chemistry class. When second semester arrived, many students finally began to real- ize that school was not just a place that took dedication, determination, and hard work in order to achieve its main goal- education. 28 FACULTY Ms. Boggasse sure is happy.

The two that achieved this honor, Scott Burford and Stephanie Bil- lings, have always been well liked and thought of as special people. Scott had spent a lot of time at Nitro helping the students and faculty. During his first year at Nitro, Scott was voted President of the Sophomore class. He built up the sopho- more's spirit through Homecoming and Mountaineer Olym- pics. During the next two years, he kept the title as President of the class of '87. He helped Nitro as an athlete as well, playing not only a terrific game of tennis, but also helped the soccer team succeed with many victories. Scott has been look- ed up to by many students, and as such is believed to continue to succeed in his future. Stephanie, known as Sis by her many friends, has been a Cheerleader at Nitro High for three years. In her sophomore year, she headed the Junior Varsity. As a Junior she cheered for Varsity, and in her senior year she became head cheer- leader for the Varsity. Throughout her high school years, she has received many honors and achievements. In Homecom- ing '84 she was honored as the 10th grade attendent. During her senior year she received the position of Miss Wildcat '86- 87, and was also voted 1st runner-up to the Snow Queen at the '86 Winter Formal. Senior Class Officers The Senior Class Officers not only built up the spirits of the entire senior class, but they also showed the underclass- men what it took to be great leaders. That is just what we had, great leaders, to encourage our abilities in academics and ath- letics. The officers whom had these qualities were Scott Burford, President; Aaron Worsted. Vice-President; and Donna Thomas as Secretary-Treasurer. Scott spent all three years at Nitro leading the class of 1987. His enthusiasm and spirit gave us a tremendous feeling of pride. He encouraged us to prove the abilities of the class through Spirit Week, during our many Homecomings, and the very exciting Mountaineer Olympics. Of course it was hard to top a leader like Scott, but Aaron really tried, he was able to accept the award of best class car during the '86 Homecom- ing and through other times of triumph, Aaron could be seen by Scott’s side. Donna's year as Secretary-Treasurer prove to be successful. Her leadership qualities were shown through in all she did. She helped whenever she could, and you knew she was good, because it was Donna's second year as a class officer.

One is Silver; The other Gold. These words are few and simple, but really say it all. As we, the class of 1987 embark on a new career, a new world, we were once again reminded of our past, our present, and our fu- ture. These last three years have been filled with several memories, which we now reflect upon: Our sophomore year was spent taking in our new surroundings, and trying to learn just how to be that “cool scrudmore, ” as we were most often called. We elected three officers that year, Scott Burford, President; Sis Billings, Vice- President; and Kris Colizzi, Secretary-Treasurer. Our Homecoming attendent was Sis Billings, and as hard as we tried, we just didn't have what it took to win that spirit stick, and Spirit Week for Homecoming. Our Junior year was not much different either. Once again we tried so hard to have what it took to be awesome. ” We were successful to some extent, but it just wasn’t quite right. We elected Scott Burford, Kirk Kelly, and Donna Thomas as our Class Officers. Donna was also voted our Junior attendent to the Homecoming court. We went through some trying times that year, and we’ll always remember Kirk Kelly who we tragically lost. We must however go on with our lives as we know he would want us to do. Our Senior year was QUITE different. On our first day back, you might say “We Came, We Saw, and We Conquered! We finally had what it took to be the “Great Senior that we had so long strived for. That year proved to be our best ever. We elected Scott Burford, Aaron Worsted, and Donna Thomas, as our Senior Class offi- cers, andJeff Starkey, Rena Moore, and Rob Ab- sten were elected as our Student Council Offi- cers. For homecoming, our attendents were Mi- chelle Layne, Cathy Allison, and chosen as Miss Wildcat ivas Sis Billings. We even won Spirit Week by a large margin, and believe it or not, the most sought after Spirit Stick. Winter Formal at Shawnee was a lot of fun as Charlie Cooper helped us dance the night away. Our Snow Queen was the beautiful Mi- chelle Layne, and the runner-ups were Rena Moore, and Sis Billings. As the year passed, many important things were taken care of, such as ordering caps and gowns, and getting our class jewelry. Not to mention attending the many sport activities, try- ing, succeeding, and even failing our homework assignments, staying up all night working on projects, going to parties, attending dances and most often trying to stay out of any major trou- ble. Prom, our last big step towards becoming a graduate was a great success, thanks to the Jun- iors. Of course, they learned their talents from us. Finally came graduation. We had waited twelve years for our day, Saturday, June 6, 1987 to arrive. We were finally adults, and it was time to enter the real world and see if we had what it took to make it on our own. In closing, the Class of 1987 wishes to thank all of those people who had helped us in anyway; Our teachers, our principals, our friends, and most importantly, our parents, Thank you Mom and Dad, You have meant more to us than you ’ll ever know, and we could not have made it thus far without you. We wish for the underclassman, that you achieve your goals, attaining your dreams, and do it with pride and spirit. Our only bit of advice, is to “Co For It! You will never have the chance to relive these days. Remember this in all that you do. Good Luck, Class of 1987 Seniors 46 FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS ROBERT KIRK KELLY From: The Class of 1987 •; r i: , i 11:1111 ’ U 1 .nun MU' ii:; i. mi i in.m Mil 'i 1 hill w f f t • A A • • 1 § I I ' t t f ‘ ■ j ; f 1 iStff - t PROM PLANNING One of the most exciting times during the school year was the long awaited ju- nior-senior prom. Since the prom was a gift given from the juniors to the seniors, the junior class began preparing early in the year to make the night an unforgettable one. The prom committee met throughout the year to discuss arrangements and make decisions concerning prom. The decision to sell jewelry and ask for donations took care of financial matters concerning prom. Scarlet Oaks Country Club in Poca was de- cided upon as the place where this extrava- ganza would take place.

The 1986-87 junior class had a new and glorious year ahead and they were going to start it with a blast. From ball- games, to assemblies, to a new job, and “playing the dating game, the new juniors found every weekend full of exciting things to do. Extra activities during the weekend were not the only form of added responsibility put in the hands of these young adults. New classes designed especially for juniors and seniors, like journalism, were open for them to encounter. The idea of going to a good college led them to dream of high ambitions and a worth-while fu- ture. By taking life seriously yet having fun in the process, the juniors bound a wonderful school year.

Good, old-fash- ioned determination was the key factor in bringing the many teams together. All kinds of sports for both girls and boys made up Nitro’s sports teams. The track, cross country and tennis teams were some excelling examples of the determination which led to all kinds of victories. Volleyball, girls’ basketball and cheerleading were several sports that consisted of only girl members. These sports gave girls the opportunity to prove their determination while honoring themselves as strong members of the “human race.” All male sports, such as foot- ball and wrestling, not only al- lowed determination to prevail. They completed the true defini- tion of the phrase team work.” FOOTBALL Cats huddle for a game plan. Coach Stoffel and Gary Bloss look on. Coach Vance examines the situation.

Yet this momentum made a drastic change in the Herbert Hoover game with careless mistakes. This lack of concentration continued through- out the rest of the season, resulting in losses. But enthusiasm and a positive attitude fi- nally returned the week of the Poca game. This led to a win with the help of team spirit and desire. Being a younger team with a lack of expe- rience hurt us. Yet we also faced stiff competi- tion which harmed our expectations for a win- ning season. Inspite of disappointing times, we worked hard, gave our best, and had fun throughout the season; and this was what mat- tered the most. L to R: Steve McGrew. Dun Truett. Steve Scott. Fred Brown.

LADY CATS’ PERSEVERANCE HARD TO BEAT The 1986-87 Girls Basketball team consisted of a mere eight, but dedicated members representing NHS. The seniors were Marian Dabney and Jackie Mead, Juniors, Maria Hutzler, Julie Clark, and Wendy Dillman. Sophomores, Paige Pence, April Casto, and Tina Neal. From day one, the girls and their coaches, Debbie Anderson and Mrs. Cutlip, were forced to overcome many obstacles. Only twelve girls tried out for the team making a diversi- ty of talent and the assurance of competent substi- tutes a second priority to the actual attainment of a well-rounded group of players. In addition to this, two starters Maria Hutzler and Julie Clark were in- jured and could no longer compete for the year. Be- ing greatly disadvantaged and dealing with ex- tremely tough competition, the Lady Cats failed to win a game. Instead, they learned to retain hope, display good sportsmanship and always strive for a victorious outcome. I BOYS CROSS COUNTRY | Trent Chase struggled be- tween two opponents.

According to Mike, whose been playing golf for about four years his twin is just like any other player. He felt that he wasn’t treated any differently because he had a twin on the team. He also felt that the sport itself isn’t as physically demanding as football or basketball but involves coordina- tion and expertise. Mike practiced for matches by playing with anyone who wanted to play and whenever he had the money to do so. All in all, he thought that the Golf team had a fair season. The other members of the team led by fifth year coach, Mr. Dave Wood, consisted of Mark Hudson, Scott Withrow, and Brian Watson. Jon Hutchinson has an easy shot for the hole.

During practice, they worked on diving for the ball, spiking, serv- ing, setting and just bumping over the net. Though the year ended in a different way than the girls expected, they all showed the skills earned by the time and hard work put in to practice. I WRESTLING 5-7 1st Row - Dani White (Manager).

The team consisted of five seniors, three juniors, and four sophomores. Since there are seven players returning next year, the 1987-88 team should have the experience needed to produce a good team.

Led by Junior, Jociv Caldwell who re- ceived the High Point Trophy at almost every track meet in which the team competed. Even though Jody scored the most points, the team as a whole deserves high recognition. The whole team did well in all of the track meets and should be congrat- ulated for their hard work and efforts. The team was made up of four seniors, three juniors, and nine sophomores. The team has a few weak spots and with a little practice and determi- nation a few members might make it to the states. Jenny Judd looks like she's getting tired of running.

They lost several games by two or three points which led to a 9-13 record overall and a 5-9 record in the KVC. Although, they had significant wins over Sissonsville. Hurricane, Dunbar. St. Albans. Dupont, and George Washing- ton they didn’t make it to the KVC Playoffs. They were able to play two games in the Sectional Tour- nament but lost them both. The team fought hard to keep their spirits alive despite their record. The team consisted of three seniors, six juniors, and four sophomores. 95 Hannah Debney. Vicki Clendenin. Kim Kyle.

While attending camp at East Tennessee in July, the mighty Nitro cheerleaders received the coveted spirit stick award and four first place ribbons which led to the grand champi- onship award. Missie Stalnaker, Sis Billings, and Hannah Dabney were picked from the squad to try out for the Universal Cheerleading Association. The squad consisted of seven returning members along with three new ones, two of which were sophomores. These girls look like they were glad to be at the Homecoming game. Vicki helped decorate one of the cars for the Home- coming parade. The cheerleaders and mas- cot (Leesa Smith) pose for a picture at the Capital. These girls weren’t camera shy. Sis Billings was the head cheerleader for the 1986-87 school year. It looks like they’ve finally perfected the art of building a pyramid. At football games you could find Leesa Smith dressed up in the “Wildcat’’ outfit. Practice makes perfect. These girls had to give up most of their sum- mer to practice for the upcoming athletic events. Varsity and Junior varsity cheerleaders line up during the National Anthem. 97 86-87 J.V.

Cheerleaders Show Spirit The cheerleaders were continually perform- ing in front of the school, executing various cheers and skillful stunts. They were a group of girls who built support and displayed spirit for Nitro High School's team. The cheerleaders spent long, hard hours practicing and cheering for the girl's basketball team, boy's J.V. basketball team and for the band at the football games. The Junior Varsity cheerleaders for 86-87 school year were Lori Roberts (Head). Jennifer Seaton, Andrea Sefcovic, Sherry Snyder, Shawna Martin and Amy Marks. This was an ex- tremely talented group of girls. Lori Roberts has an identity crisis. Sherry' Snyder and Jennifer Seaton in action. Andrea Sefcovic and Lori Roberts do it-to it!

Each class gave All Kinds” of cheer and support hoping for a victory over all the others. To participate in the Mountaineer Olympics, each stu- dent had to be decked out in the proper Mountaineer attire. Such outfits were the colorful, flannel shirt, bulky overalls, shredded jeans, and cloggy boots. As usual the seniors came out victorious, but the juniors and sophomores fought a good fight. The whole event gave students, as well as teachers, a chance to have some fun on ... school time. PULL! Heave ... Ho! Seniors prepare themselves for the Bobsled. juniors.

All kinds of clubs and activities appealed to all kinds of personalities. Being involved in the different organizations served many purposes. Singing in Show Choir or playing in the band gave stu- dents the opportunity to prove their musical talents. French Club. Science Club, Art Club and Explorers allowed the exploration of new worlds. Model UN and Student Council brought ideas of gov- ernmental affairs. Finally, clubs allowed the ever popular chance to mix and mingle among others. After all. learning from others helps us to learn about ourselves. Ihhhihhi 1st row - Trade Bell. Christine Grow. Laura Goff. Rena Moore.

PASCALS RASCALS COMPUTE Pascals Rascals had a very successful year. They achieved many goals. They were a big asset to the school. They showed their dedication to Nitro High School by selling “I Love NHS” buttons. At Christmas, they spent many hours printing Christmas 104 Cards and sending letters to children from Santa. To- wards the end of April they sent questionaires to all the Homerooms and the stu- dents filled them out and a few weeks later they com- piled a list of the most com- patible boys girls that would meet your desires and needs. Enrichment in Math Mu Alpha Theta is a national scholastic mathematics honor society for high schools and junior colleges. To qualify for member- ship, students must complete Algebra I, Ge- ometry, Algebra II, and be enrolled in Ana- lytic Geometry, Probability, Precalculus, Trig., or Calculus and most maintain a 3.2 grade point average throughout these courses.

Anchor Club is a community and school service organization sponsored by Pilot Club of Charleston. Mrs. Cillian was the school sponsor. As you may have guessed, Anchor Club is an all-fe- male group. Letting a family’s Christmas dream come true and raising money to allow a child to go on a well-de- served trip are just two examples of the club’s activities this past year. Members of the Anchor Club were also involved in the opening flag cer- emony for the Pilot Club Convention held the first weekend of April at the Marriott in Charleston; where the six members involved also had the honor of visiting the Governor’s Mansion. All of the students involved in the club should be commended. Look at the camera! Ready yet, hon? Candace, what a ham! Stop and smell the roses. Wipe that smirk off your face!

The popularity of drama and the area of forensics has increased tremendously at Nitro High School in the past few years. The Drama department produced two plays this year, a comedy and a mystery-comedy, with the great help and patience of Mrs. Cindy Norman: drama and speech teacher, and sponsor of the club. The Forensics team of our school placed 2nd overall at the Kanawha County Forensics Tournament held at the University of Charleston in March. Many of the students involved were sophomores, so the enthusiasm should continue throughout next year. HIGH Q EXCELS AT COMPETITION 108 This year's High Q team sailed beyond the limits of achieving their many goals by making a name for themselves as “Master Defeaters” in the field of knowl- edge. Led by Mrs. Judy Fortner the team spent many Saturdays at competitions trying to advance to the finals. Even though they didn’t reach the finals, they should be congrat- ulated for their dedication and hard work in trying to accomplish their goals. The team consisted of three seniors, one junior, and three sophomores. By taking advanced courses in school, this enabled the team members to prepare for the difficult questions at the matches. 1st row - Alyssa Sloan. Paul Roberts, |ackie Homer. 2nd row - Richard Kasel. Rob Absten. Mike Hurd, and Mark Hudson The team have a few laughs during a match. Richard and Rob read some books that might help them at competition. The members are hard at work trying to figure out the answer. THE SPY GLASS The school newspaper burdened with the cost of getting a company to print the paper, de- cided to try something new. The staff decided to use computers along with the help of Mr. Wilkes who taught them how to run the computers and the use of its equipment. This cut the cost of pub- lishing the Spy Glass a great deal, because they didn’t have to pay a company to print the paper. In years past, the newspaper staff were also members of the yearbook staff, but this year they decided to do it after school and sometimes dur- ing lunch. Even though there were only a few issues of the newspaper published we hope that with the help of Mr. Wilkes and the four returning staff members, that next year will be more challenging and they will be able to produce more issues. We wish you the best of luck in the following years and congratulations on a job well done this year. Mr. Wilkes and Rena Moore work on one of the issues of the newspaper. 1st row - Candace Cundiff.

NITRONIAN Many days, many hours, and much hard work were what it took to put this year’s Nitronian together. The whole staff of talented, dedicated individuals proved their abilities by having published a yearbook that really showed all the kinds of people it took to make a great High School. Under new advisor. Mr. Stephen Aronson and his trusty Survival Guide.” the new Nitronian staff prepared for all kinds of activities to come. Raising money was one activity the Nitronian staff over- took. In the month of October, the staff sold the ever-popular M M candy. All through the year, the staff sold all kinds of ads to businesses, individuals, and patrons. The sales were suc- cessful and the yearbook was ready to get underway. Another activity was selling yearbooks to students. Every- day during lunch or whenever and wherever the chance came up to sell a yearbook, a member of the staff wrote a receipt to the student which bought a yearbook. These sales were very successful and an outstanding yearbook was promised to every- one. It really did take all kinds in 1986-87! Sylvia happily works on her Jour- nalism. Jeff must be hungry.

Ill The Club With Honor NATIONAL HONOR .SOCIETY 112 The National Honor Society is the most prestigious organization at Nitro High. It is an honor and a privilege to be chosen as part of the organization. The Honor Society is involved with many school activi- ties including guides for the open house, tutoring other students at noon, and perhaps the most impor- tant would be setting up and spon- soring the Kirk Kelly Memorial Run. In April, some of our students Firs! Row: Mrs. King (Sponsor). Shelly Hicks. Cathy Allison, Todd Hudnall. Rachel Frick, Matt Lewis. Roger Hartley, jennifer Acker. Melissa Simmons, Hannah Dabney.

The trip was a fun- filled learning experience for them. The zoo, the capitol, the Lin- coln Memorial, and Arlington Na- tional Cemetery were just some of the many attractions. The seniors had really en- joyed their two years as Honor So- ciety members and they wish the best of luck to the new members. The Lincoln Memorial is one of ihe many sites.

The expertise of President Wendy Wysong, Vice-President Dawn- ell Hudson, and Secretary Lori Isaacs seemed to ease the pres- sure of such an impossible task. During meetings, much time was spent generating ideas for upcoming activities. The Home- coming Parade was the season’s first major event. Although their float didn’t win an award, they continued to strive for success. In the late Fall, Ms. Leurant, the dedicated sponsor of the Science Club, collected money in the tra- ditional Christmas jar. This money, along with toys donated by members of the club, was giv- en to the Nitro Pastoral Associa- tion to provide for needy fami- lies at Christmas. Also, various gifts including stuffed animals, fruit, and coloring books were tak- en to the Children’s Ward at Tho- mas Memorial Hospital. Toward the latter months of winter, a Cryo- genics Workshop was presented by Mr. Tom Huff. I guess one could have described it as being an “icy” demonstration. Several weeks later, the annual Science Fair was held in which many stu- dents proceeded to higher levels of competition. The remaining months consisted of various activi- ties to end the year. The Science Club’s mission was finally accomplished. They derived the basic formula for a successful year as being D= ; the Determination to succeed is equal to the Motivation of each individ- ual to work together over victory.

A Shining Star “There is no sense in doing something if you don’t do it right,” advised Ms. Leurant. a Biology teacher who had to re- tire this year due to medical problems. She has always been inter- ested in Science, especially medicine, simply because “it presented more of a challenge to her”. After graduation, her hope of pursuing a career in medicine was shattered by personal problems; therefore, she turned to teaching. Upon completing the necessary re- quirements at Morris Harvey College in 1954, she was sent to Nitro High School to teach Science and Health. The fol- lowing year, she taught En- glish and Biology at Charles- ton High School and returned to Nitro in 1956 where she re- mained for almost 33 years. Dur- ing her teaching career at Nitro High School, much emphasis was placed upon the learning abilities of each student. Accord- ing to her, .. learning is not difficult if the individual is will- ing to apply the time and effort ... I demand the best my stu- dents can give ...” She admitted that her classes were hard, but not impossible. Some highlights of her teaching career included a cer- tificate from the American Soci- ety of Microbiology in 1973 and being named Outstanding Biolo- gy' Teacher of WV in 1971,1973, 1979, 1981, and 1984 by the Na- tional Biology' Teachers of America. DEDICATION MORE THAN A MOCKERY The Model United Nations was a mock United Nations consisting of student delegates from various high schools across the state. Each participating high school was assigned a group of countries to represent. It was the task of club sponsor, Lucille McClure, to con- dense the club members into groups of three or four and assign each group a nation to research. The groups were responsible for gather- ing information on their country dealing with its current issues and major policy changes. On October 30,1986, all delega- tions were invited as the guests of the West Virginia High School Model United Nations Day. Model UN Team L to R, Sitting: Wendy Wysong. Melisse Simmons.

EXPLORING FRANCE The French Club was designed for all French students to further their understanding of the language and to explore French ways of life. Many of the 1986-87 French Club members were able to get a taste of French cul- ture by actually visiting French speak- ing countries, but for those who were unable to visit foreign countries, the French Club provided many activities such as the annual French Dinner which introduced them to the customs of France. The French Dinner held in May of 1987 was enjoyed by all club mem- bers and their parents. Its great success can be attributed to the close supervi- sion of club sponsor Madame Hodge, and the leadership qualities of its offi- cers. Paris is the only place to shop! Is this how you say peace in French? The 1986-87 French Club meetings inspired hunger. Gilbert Bailey was an active club president. 1986-87 French Club L to R last row: Jeff Smith. Todd Hudnall.

At Christmas they visited a nursing home and took with them fruit baskets and gifts which made the residents’ holiday more fulfilling. In February of 1987 several of the members ventured North to the slopes of Seven Springs. Pennsylvania. With the aid of sponsors, Mrs. Hard- man and Mrs. Norman, and officers Ra- chel Steele, Scott Burford, and Karen To- ney, the explorers had an exciting year. The ski resort at Seven Springs.

The library aides gave great assistance to Mrs. Davis through- out the school year. They helped students check out books, as well as helping in the selection of books and they helped return the books back to their proper place when the students returned them. The office helpers of Nitro High School served as aides to the administration of the school. They assisted the secretary by putting mail in the teachers' box- es, and they helped the principal on errands to get students when emergencies arose. They also answered the phone and took messages for the teachers. 119 SC CREST THE WAVE OF SUCCESS 1st row - Roh Ahsten. Rena Moore. Jeff Starkey. 2nd row - Scott Burfor. Diana Dolin, Tangee Dawson.

OUR ACHIEVERS It takes all kinds to make a school success- ful, but the Student Council is a main contribu- tor. The student body elected three officers with leadership qualities to head our Student Council. Jeff Starkey, Rena Moore, and Robert Absten were voted as our esteemed President, Vice-President and Secretary-treasurer, The Student Council really brought the school together. After successfully repairing the visitor's side concession stand, they worked in it to raise money all through the football sea- son. The many dances that occurred during the school year were given by the Student Council, giving us the chance to socialize and dance, while also supplying us with refreshments. But let’s not forget the Winter Formal, which wouldn't have evolved without the support and the work of the Council members and sponsors. Also, the exciting Mountaineer Olympics was put together by the Council every year to mea- sure the spirit of the seniors and underclass- man. Not only do they participate in school, but they also contribute to the community by help- ing with the Special Olympics. So if you some- times wonder what do we need a student council for?” Just look around. Jeff sports the look. Marc at work. The fact of the matter is .. 121 FUTURE IN BUSINESS FSA. Future Secretaries Association, is one of the active organizations in the school that do much for the student body. Among such activities is the student directory that is put out every year. Among their achievments. they won the club best decorat- ed car in the 1986-87 Homecoming parade, and Katie Stevens was voted the Secretary of the Kan- awha Chapter of FSA. FBLA. Future Business Leaders of America, is a business club that helps the students to build leadership. The club is very active in the school. It helps in such activities as Homecoming, and ev- ery spring they compete with other FBLA members in the state in different business courses. Both FSA and FBLA are very helpful to Nitro High, and are very fortunate to have such wonder- ful sponsors as Mrs. Dick and Mrs. Whited support- ing them.

Distributive Education Clubs of America, is a club that allows the members to discover a job skill and make a career of it. Your only requirement to get in DECA is to have a job. These students attend school for only four periods and then leave at lunch to report to work. Three DECA members. Pam Null. Melinda Winter, and Jon Hoptry traveled to Washington D. C. to attend the North Atlantic and Southern Regions Leadership Development Conference, which gathered to celebrate DECA's forty-one years of excel- lence in action. The conference helped to develop leadership skills of the members participating and to expand DECA oppor- tunities on local, state, and national levels. Pam.

Lost in the Fifties The Fonz would have been proud of the Nitro High School Expressions. They brought back a taste of the fifties to the modern day eighties. Mrs. McGucken s first hand experience in the 50’s helped in making up the routines, and designing the cos- tumes. The performance began with a tune from the popular movie Grease, also a remembrance of the fa- mous era. The group dazzled the crowds with their fabulous dancing, and their spirits soared high in the numbers Book of Love”, The Leader of the Pack”, Sea of Love”, and the reprise of “We Go Together . The Expressions really “expressed themselves from the moment the curtain was drawn. The girls in their bright poodle skirts of many colors really looked great, and the scarves gave them that added touch. “Oh, but Jatjies Dean, look out. With the NHS guys around, you don’t stand a chance!” The black jeans rolled up. with white socks and loafers looked great, but the black t-shirt made us want to run home and turn on Happy Days! Because the group did such a fine job, they were asked to perform for the Womans Club, Governor Arch Moore, and at several Christmas festivities. Row 1: Lto R Mark Hudson.

Although the choir performed several tunes, it seemed that the major focus was on the United States and the pride that we as Americans had.

For the first time in many years, the band had only one field director. Kippi George led the band in many events. These included parades, football games, and the Majorette Festival. She helped with music and routines during summer band, which started in the beginning of August. Another first was the restoration of Big Red. Big Red is the pet name for the van which is used to carry instruments to events in which the band participates. It was repainted and artwork was added to the sides and back. The van now exclaims that the Nitro Wild- cats are ‘‘cornin’ at ya!” One game that was remembered by the band as well as the audience was the home game against East Bank. Since it was Halloween Night, Mr. Foster al- lowed the band to dress in costumes for the perform- ance. This provided a chance for the band members to show their individualism. Looking back, it is easy to see that the band was not only busy, but also had an eventful year. Mr. Foster instructs the band during practice.

The year started out with practices everyday at Underwood Field, under the direction of head majorette Bridget Sapp. They began their day very early in the morning, and ended sometimes as late as 9:00 P.M. Often times, they even had 3 practices in one day. In September, the majorettes participated in the An- nual Charleston Daily Mail Festival. They did very well, and came away with a 3rd place originality trophy. The entire corps was pleased. The remainder of the season was spent learning new routines, and performing during halftime at football games. They also performed during the few pep assem- blies held at Nitro. This year, the corps proved to be very talented and are to be commended on a job well-done. Twirler Missy Honaker gets down at halftime. Teresa Brenneman twirls ribbon batons.

This year’s corp had three returning members along with five new ones. It was difficult to work on their rou- tines after their instructor moved. They performed with the band at football games, the Daily Mail Band and Majorette Festi- val and parades. Even though they didn’t get special recognition for their efforts on the field, they did receive two blue ribbons for their outstanding performance at the camp that they attended in July. front row - Shelley Rader (Captain), second row - Wendy Wysong, Jenny Burns, and Tracy Mays, third row - Donica Williams, Kim Coon, Sebrina Hill.

This year a law was passed for students to stand and say the Pledge of Allegiance. Very few rooms had flags, but now thanks to the Industrial Arts Club, all of the classrooms have flags. They also helped with choir and play back- drops. Any time a chair or desk is broken, guess who fixes it. None but the Industrial Arts Club. Thanks a lot guys. Front Row - Charlie Scott.

Brought to you by the Nitro High School Yearbook Staff, that closely watched all kinds of activities to exist in and out of Nitro High since 1938. has brought them to you in ... almost full color. The many features presented by tal- ented and dedicated individuals have shown through as a constant builder to the future of Nitro High and its students. Every year the staff reproduced all kinds of memories to prevail as features of the past. Nitro became the first in many ways during 1986-87 to step ahead of the rest. In fields of public exposure, plays like MASH and Done to Death were pre- sented with much expertise and dedica- tion to make a play just like .. . BROAD- WAY?! The construction of a new' gym floor gave Nitro a look of “ancient Rome. The WV First program brought the President to our great halls, or was it Mayor Roark? College Day and the Blood Mobile supplied each student with a first hand opportunity at discovering a future or giving that precious gift of life. The wonderful trip to Europe dur- ing spring break showed us many differ- ent lifestyles. Ben Franklin Vocational Center put students into career choice positions. Finally, the junior class worked endlessly to conjure a prom theme that ended the year as A DREAM COME TRUE.” A Special Friend The Crede Let me win that if I cannot win let me be brave in the attempt! These words were echoed throughout the 1987 Kanawha County Special Olympics held at Laidley Field on April 28th and 29th. Many students eagerly volunteered to help those individuals less fortunate than them. I wanted to help out little kids who couldn't walk,” commented Lisa Pitzer who spent the day assisting a student in a wheelchair. By working with these special students, an appreciation for the finer things in life was felt by everyone. All of the participants and volunteers of the 1987 Special Olympics were congratulated for their outstanding efforts. Christy Pierce makes a new friend. Brian Watson gives a boost to a young guv. Two little children at the Olympics. Donating Blood . .. Saving Lives The Nitro High School Student Council spon- sored a Red Cross blood drive on May 13th. A goal of 80 pints was established for this campaign. How- ever, this number was easily surpassed with a new school record of 113 pints. Jeff Starkey. Student Council president, set the pace for student recruit- er's by scheduling nearly 40 volunteer donors. In recent years, the number of student donors has increased. “Student awareness is probably a major factor in the rise of student donors, suggest- ed Mrs. Judy Fortner, a gifted teacher. It is very im- portant for schools to remain active in the Blood- mobile since 10% of the blood collected is from school drives. The earlier a student donates blood, the more of an incentive he will have in later years. The Bloodmobile truly proved to be very suc- cessful this year. A trophy was even presented to Nitro High School from the Red Cross for exceed- ing previous school records. Wendy Wysong. and Angie Osborne help out with the bloodmobile.

In October of this past year, tryouts began for the first of two plays that the drama department produced. The play. M A S H was a production based on the movie of the same title. The usual characters were portrayed: Hot- lips, Havvkeve, Col. Bhike, Cup. Burns and Radar, for an outstand- ing performance. One character in particular. llo-fon. played by Den- nis Schalliol was a big hit. The setting of the play was the compound of the 4077th Mobile Army surgical Hospital during the Korean War conflict. The crew was. as usual, up to their crazy an- tics and the play was quite enjoy- able.

The storyline was about five mystery authors; Jes- sica Olive, Whitney Olive, Mil- dred Z. Maxwell, Brad Benedict, and Rodney Ducton who were brought out to Vultures Vault, a dreary old house on an island, to create a fabulous new mystery series. When real murders begin to occur, the authors themselves become detectives. At long last, it is the audience itself who turns out to be the most surprised. The play itself was intriguing and a bit confusing at times. Credit is due though, to a wom- an. Mrs. Cindy Norman, whose patience and diligence caused the play to be an even bigger hit.

Done to Death A NEW LOOK The 1986-87 school year brought many renovations at Nitro High School including the re- placement of many doors, and the replacement of the gym floor. The resurfacing job of the floor began in the fall along with the start of school and finished in time for the start of the indoor sports season to begin. Many thanks go to all the hard working people who made the new floor a reality, and special thanks to Mrs. Drema Watts for spending her time and talents on the finishing and final touches of the new wildcat in the center of the gymnasium.

The W. V. First Program, sponsored by the office of Congressman Bob Wise, was a pro- gram designed to supply insight into the achievements and prosperity of successful West Virginians. The program allowed the stu- dents of Nitro to speak one on one with such aspiring West Virginians as John McBride, Heart Surgeon Dr. John Norman, Mayor Mike Roark, and Russell Isaacs. The most famous and well-known West Virginian interviewed was Nashville country singer Kathy Mattea. During her high school years, Kathy attended Nitro High and was in- volved in such activities as Show Choir, All- County and All-State Choirs and Student Council. In interviewing Kathy, Nancy Higgin- botham described her best as very casual and open ... willing to talk and not unapproach- able. ” Russell Isaacs talks with Mall. Nanci. and Andrea.

Many aspects must be considered before a final decision is made. To help students with this decision, a “college day” was held on Dec. 10 at Nitro High. Over 27 representa- tives from local and distant colleges and universities gave a broad discussion concerning basic principles of their specific school. Among those represented were West Vir- ginia State, West Virginia University. Marshall Univer- sity, Ohio State, and many others. Many Juniors and Sen- iors took advantage of this opportunity to ask questions about campus life, expenses, and offered classes. It was an educational experience that assisted many future col- lege bound students. juniors listen attentively. Cathy Allison talks to a representative about her future.

Chaperoned by Miss Laura Hayhurst, seniors Mindy McNeel, Karen Tony, and Julie Wotring, and juniors Jill Fitzsimmons, Kristy Pierce, Sylvia Ray, Jessan Simons, Trisha Simpson, and Rachel Steele traveled to the cities of Paris, Florence, Nice, Monte Carlo, Pisa, and Rome.

Many of our students attend this school to develop good work habits and to learn job entry-level skills. Most students who attend Ben Franklin plan to start their careers right after graduation. This school experience helps them to prepare to earn a living for themselves. Some of the courses offered are: Air Conditioning. Auto Mechanics, Building Maintenance, Car- pentry, Child Care, Commercial Art, Data Processing, Diesel Me- chanics, Drafting, Electronics, Geriatrics Nursing, Machine Shop, Medical Assistant, Printing, Sheet Metal, and Welding. These are all useful jobs that Ben Franklin offers to its high school students. Michele Forbes. Kerry Daily. Rachel Reyn- olds. and Cindy Eads are passing time at school.

The juniors worked very hard to provide a successful prom for all that attended. Windjammerwas the chosen band. Some decora- tions included a castle, blue and silver balloons, and streamers. The prom began with dinner at 630. and dancing at 8 o’clock. Many couples went to area restaurants before the dance including. The Terragon Room. Fazios. Wel- lington s. The Panda, and some people even had cookouts. At approximately 9:00. the Prom Queen and King were announced. Cathy Allison was chosen Queen, and Madi- son Sayre king. They shared the traditional Royal dance, and soon after, the prom had to come to an end. Many couples however, attended the After Prom Party sponsored by area businesses, and organizations. Thanks to the (unior Class, the prom was a success, and they are to be commended. NITRO AFTER-PROM ’87 FUN FOR ALL “After-Prom was a good idea, said parents and students. Much work was devoted to a little idea that turned into a great event. The main point was to keep everyone off the roads after the prom, and it started at 12:30 a.m. continuing to 6:00 a.m. at the Reabilitation Center. Mrs. Mer- edith spent many hours, days and weeks raising money and prizes for the students and their guests to receive through the evening. There were many activities to do to keep ev- eryone busy, such as: swinging, movies, dancing, volleyball, bingo, playing cards, and lets not for- get our favorite thing, eating. Parents and teach- ers really helped out a lot with food and enter- tainment, they spent much time with the stu- dents. At 6:00 a.m. the winner of the 1980 Buick Skylark, donated by Scott Runyan Buick, was an- nounced. The proud owner was Travis Henry. Jay Wygal prepares for the shot. Looks like LeeAnn won.

William Blake A long lime ago when Ihe 1986-87 Nitro High School stu- dents first learned to perform on their own. they made all kinds of mistakes. Everything from track- ing mud onto Mom's clean floor to doing the w'rong page of homework wrere considered a part of each students growing process. Growing up meant many things, but the idea of making in- dividual decisions best defined it. So to conclude the long pro- cess of achieving adulthood, the students looked critically at themselves and realized ... that in all kinds of ways ... each stu- dent was an ACHIEVER! ■■■■I 152 AN ACADEMIC CHALLENGE The arrival of spring brought forth a harvest of young, tal- ented students in the 9th Annual Marshall Academic Festival (S.C.O.R.E.S.). This year, over 4,000 participants, represented by 85 schools, assembled at Marshall University to academical- ly challenge their opponents. Mrs. Margaret Wilmoth com- mented on the festival as being a wonderful opportunity for stu- dents to familiarize themselves with a college campus and to compare their knowledge with regional high school students. An awards ceremony was held that afternoon to recognize those individuals of high academic excellence. The following is a list of such individuals: Torcuato Lozano 1st Place Spanish V 3rd place Names and Places of the World Gilbert Bailey 2nd Place Archaeology Jeff Smith 2nd Place World Civilizations Michele Hicks 2nd Place Counseling Christian 2nd Place Spanish V Sheila Morrison 2nd Place Art - College Paul Roberts 3rd Place American National Govern- ment Alan Kinzy 3rd Place Programming in Basic Robert Absten was awarded a Commended Scholar for ex- cellence in the Economics Division.

As a result, their place in history is somewhat vague. Therefore, to eliminate such a mis- hap. a summary of these individuals who may not have been previously mentioned for their accomplishments throughout the year has been prepared. The National Merit Scholarship Semi-Finalists were Rob- ert Absten. Richard Kasel. Alan Kinzy, and Paul Roberts. Alan and Paul were selected as Finalists with Paul also winning a Na- tional Merit Scholarship. The winners in the Regional Skill Olympics held at Ben Franklin were Todd Hornbeck (Welding). Paul Ross[Electron- ics). John Salisbury' (Air Conditioning). David Shell (Architec- tural Drafting). John Vance (Diesel Mechanics), and Blaine Young (Auto Mechanics). The participants who made the West Virginia Academic Decathlon successful were Nancy Higginbotham - First in Math. Richard Pullins - First in Speech and Second in Math. Roger Hartley - Third in Super Quiz, and Robert Absten - First in Eco- nomics. Second in Essay, and Third in Social Sciences. Fine Arts. Speech, and Math. Robert was also named the Outstand- ing Varsity student in which he received a full scholarship to the University of Charleston. Trey Judd was one of the two West Virginians selected to play in the John Philip Sousa National Honors Band in Wash- ington. D.C. Trade Runyon 's poem Like Waves out on the Blue Sea was published in the American Poetry Anthology. Jody Caldwell was crowned Miss West Virginia Teen All- American and later competed nationally. In the sectional basketball tournament, the cheerleaders won the First Place Trophy and the Most School Spirit. Paul Strohl, Tony Null, and Scott Hensley were chosen for small parts in the full length movie Matewan. 155 | Winners Take It All MATHEMATICS Mathematics has always been a very im- portant part of Nitro High's educational makeup. For those students who have an out- standing talent in the math field, a math day was provided. The participants were: Bobby Barrel. Torcuato Pablo. Labella Lozano. Laura Goff. Jackie Homer, and Mark Kinsey. These five, bright students displayed an extreme knowledge in mathematics. By put- ting forth their best effort, they successfully represented Nitro High and came out as true winners. SCIENCE The scientific aspect of Nitro High has al- ways been considered a neccessity. Through chemistry, biology and more, the students ex- pressed their need to learn of the unknown. In order to do this, a science fair was provided that led to both county and state competition. The participants were: Mike Hurd, Bobby Barret. Richard Kasel. Troy Thomas. Sherrie Snyder. Pam Sadler. Sharon Matson, and Jack- ie Meade. These eight students produced exception- al projects that won them awards in many dif- ferent catagories. By winning these awards, a personal satisfaction was achieved and a terrif- ic representation of Nitro’s knowledge in sci- ence. SOCIAL STUDIES Social Studies has always been an effective way of linking the past with the present. From wars to economic struggle to civilization develop- ment, historians have recorded and documented the events that have made this world what is it today. But where did these events begin? With the future leaders that existed at Nitro High. The events made by these students will be considered a major part of history documented by future his- torians. This whole process began with students like Rob Absten, Laurs Goff and Cash Vyas. By show- ing an interest in the past, a wonderful future lies ahead to be documented by these historians in the making. A REASON TO SMILE The class of 1987 were finally ready to step out into the world. So, the idea of finding a good college at a reasonable price became a fore- front concern of most students. Some graduates were lucky enough to already have the money for college through stocks or savings accounts. But, those who were not so lucky found other ways like a job or . .. scholarships. All kinds of scholarship applications were available at Nitro like the Randy Willians or Kirk Kelly scholarships. Often, companies like Monsanto offered scholarships which payed off nicely. If scholarships were not available through one of these ways, many colleges of- fered Presidential, academic or athletic scho- larships. Congratulations to the all kinds of hard working seniors who were awarded scholar- ships. The following received scholarship awards: Robert Absten, Jennifer Acker, Cathy Allison. Paul Baldwin. Da- vid Boggess, Angi Chatting. Candace Cundiff. Hannah Dabney. Marion Dabney. Diana Dolin. Rachel Frick. Robert Hager. Roger Hartley, Scott Hensley. Shelly Hicks, Nanci Higginbotham.

Scott Withrow. Nanci Higgin- botham and Trey Judd received scholarships. KVC ACHIEVERS The 1986-87 school year was filled with some outstanding athletes. Many received their recognition by excelling in their individ- ual sports, but some excelled in a couple of sports. The one's who were on the All-KVC teams in all the sports are the ones that tried to do the best job possible. One of those out- standing athletes was Jody Caldwell, who re- ceived three first place trophies and the High Point trophy in the State Girls Track meet. She broke state records for the 100 high hurdles and the 300 intermediate hurdles. The other first place trophy was awarded to her for jumping 5'4 in the high jump. The girls team placed fourth in the state. The Cross Country teams also received high honors in the fall for both teams placing first in the KVC. Many athletes were not recog- nized by a picture on this layout but had a great deal to do with the success of their sport. 1st row - Shelley Raynes. Nanci Higginbotham. 2nd row - Steve Scott.

Their lives were no longer going to be shel- tered by parents and high school teachers. For they now were considered adults in both mind and body. Early in the year, caps and gowns were ordered to make up the traditional graduate attire. Arrange- ments for the awaited ceremonies were carefully planned in every aspect, so that the end of twelve years of education and fun would come to a memorable end. On |une 4. 1987 at 7:30 in the evening, graduates, families and close friends gathered together in Nitro's auditorium for Baccalaureate. The annual church ser- vice started with the graduates procession into the audi- torium. followed by several songs sung by the Choir. Speakers, both invited and student, told of their past, present and soon to be future plans. All kinds of memo- ries were recalled and the ceremony will be cherished forever.

GRADUATION ’87 On graduation day, June 6, 1987, all who were in- volved with the graduating class, congregated as one for commencement exercises at the Charleston Civic Center. The time to realize that yesterday was gone and tomorrow was here had arrived in what seemed a short time. The Class of 1987 had experienced the most won- derful feelings that could never be erased. The sorrows, joys, and anxieties were now left behind in the time capsules of our minds. We looked back on the times of our high school days in sweet remembrance. What had seemed so wrong once was now so perfect. The sons and daughters of Nitro, 1987 will forever salute the red and black. It Took All Kinds of hard work for the graduates to reach one of the greatest plateaus in their lives. It will always be remembered as the most important key to the success of their future. Laura Zaygko and Kippi George are happy to lx? graduating and can’t wait until they get their Diplomas. The end of the 1986-87 yearbook had finally evolved. Hard work, a lot of time, and all kinds of activities were what it took to make this yearbook complete. Although the personality of a yearbook consists of a theme, people, and events, many other factors had to be considered in order to produce a success. The first and most important tool needed in pro- ducing a successful yearbook was and al- ways has been the financial aspect of plentiful money. When the first thought of raising enough money to pay for a yearbook came up. many ideas were considered. But. the fact that the cost still remained in the four digit numbers be- came constant in our minds. So in order to complete the needed payments, the staff went to area busi- nesses. By selling the ads. the memories made by Nitro students could be pre- served forever. _________________________ - 164 Science Ms. Almodie neurant, Sponsor 1986-87 Officers PRESIDENT - Wendy Wysong VICE-PRESIDENT - Sharon Matson SECRETARY TREASURER - Shelly Hicks 166 (304) 755-7971 1 litro Jropky find ENGRAVING Awards for All Occasions Ivan Meadows 609-6 Main Ave. (304) 755-5206 Home Nitro, UUV 25143 lONrS House of Hair 1 Smith Street Nitro, WV 25143 755-1003 N€ US CITIZENS NATIONAL CAN r of St. Albans 603-613 MacCORKLE AVENUE ST.

Answer the questions that stand near by. Help us be strong and not to cry. When we think it’s all better and the pain is gone. Everything always seems to go wrong; The memories of him. song after song: We ask you once more to help us be strong. Please God tell us why! We all knew him as such a good friend. And need our hearts to mend. We know he’d want our lives to move on. But it's hard because the pain is so strong; Please God tell us why! He wasn't like all other people. When you had a problem he was always there; He’d say “everything will be alright” Anil then too soon he saw “the light.” And we knew, like he said, it would be alright. Please God tell us why!
