Busy, busy, busy and so much more ffilingj yet to do . . . Mr. Warren stays steadily at work with mounting forms and documents yet to sign. PRINCIPLE PEGPLE They walk the halls, patrolling cau- tiously like policemen on their beat. They lack the nightstick swinging casu- ally from its strap, but our principals do have their walkie-talkies. Beam me up, Scotty! It's rather eerie how they seem to teleport magically from place to place, but this is their function as principals: To be everywhere at one time. Mr. Har- old Warren, the head principal of Pine Forest, and his able assistant principals, Dr. William Marable, Mr. Jim Simp- son, and Mr. Julian Norris, keep the peace in our school. They are the fig- ureheads and the spokesmen for Pine Forest. Mr. Warren, as Commander-in- Chief, is in charge of just about every- thing. Without his stamp of approval, there are no school activities or events. His commanding voice echoes through the corridors at announcement time as he addresses his faithful subjects. Dr. Marable has two overwhelmingly tough jobs - discipline and buses. Go ahead, take it - I DARE YOU. ' . . , Mr. Simpson patiently takes time out of his schedule to pose for a picture. Imagine the anarchy if Dr. Marable weren't here to supervise the discipline at our school - but we wouldn't even be here, with no buses running. All dis- cipline cases, on board a bus or here in our halls are dealt with as fairly as pos- sible by Dr. Marable, and even those big yellow buses would be lost without him. While Dr. Marable gets students to school, Mr. Jim Simpson keeps track of them once they're here. As supervisor of attendance, he takes care of the check-ins and check-outs every day, and rest assured that heill find out if you're skipping or not. Mr. Julian Norris, our athletic direc- tor, has a hectic schedule of all kinds of sports events. He purchases new and better equipment for the Trojan teams, and supplies them with sodas after hard-fought games. So now you see: Our principals rule our scholarly lives. It is doubtful that they actually travel from place to place by magic for by Scottyj, but by making it seem like it they are quire effective in their jobs. faculty

DR. JEKYLL AND MR. TE ART From the soggy ground of Buies Creek, North Carolina to the neatly bricked and tiled floors of Pine Forest Sr. High is a long journey, a journey that has taken Mr. Ben Stewart 45 years. But this is no ordinary tale of a small town boy going to the city to hit it big. Disillusionment came early to Mr. Stewart, but the hope of being a major league baseball player has been forgot- ten, the disappointment has been ac- cepted. What would the future hold for such a shattered youth? . . . A life of crime! All criminal minds have humble begin- nings. His crime: plagiarism. You think to yourself, Mr. Stewart would perpe- trate such a heinous act?!! Yes, we are all young and foolish once and we do make mistakes. In a way we should be thankful for Mr. Stewart's mistake, beccause that is what caused him to become interested in English. It was better than any story. A young boy, Benjamin Stewart, is given an En- glish assignment which is to write a Dorothy Andrews Karen Asbury Sandra Autry Maryann Ayars Sonny Basinger Michelle Bell Thomas Billings Jo Ann Bishop Appie Bolton Bob Brandenburg T. . Beatrice Butler Joanne Byrd Calvin Cogdell Alfonso Correa Cathy Culbreth Faculty short story. Now as hard as it may be to believe, at this point in time our hero, young Ben, could not stand to put pen- cil to paper, let alone write anything as complex as a short story. So, he did what any boy would do: he plagiarized. He copied, word for word, a radio dra- ma he had heard the night before his assignment was due. Call it a twist of fate, call it sheer, incredible luck, but he was not caught. Instead his teacher held his work in the highest regard, praising it and showing it to every class. As can be expected in such a case, young Ben fell deeply and madly in love with this freshly graduated, hunk of a woman who just happened to be his En- glish teacher. Because she had thought so highly of Uhisi' story, Mr. Stewart swore to do anything for his beloved, even break his arm Qyes, his pitching armj if she as much as asked. The seeds for a love of English land of English teachersj had been planted, thrusting this young boy to his present career. And now we come to the present. We see a gentle man with a beard and read- ll ing glasses, gray being his prominent color. You think that you are going to be bored out of your mind C'English couldn,t possibly be interesting J. Then you begin to discuss Beowulf and meek Mr. Stewart becomes a possessed Nor- man, wielding a meter stick as if it were a sword and going to battle against ev- ery imaginable type of foe, until sud- denly with a crashing blow, he slaps the wicked Literary Map of England, the battle is over. You realize that even a typical class in A.P. English is anything but ordinary and maybe that is why Mr. Stewart has been chosen as the president of the North Carolina English Teachers' As- sociation. But the fame and stardom have not gone to his head. He still en- joys teaching and works hard at becom- ing an even better teacher. We do not know what the future holds for Mr. Stewart. He still plans on defeating the Saxons on a yearly basis for a long time to come, but we can be sure that English wil remain the promi- nent facet of his life. 1 - 'Q ' iii . .J AE , 3, Y -'-u-a-.N.---
