Village Creek State Park, five miles from Wynne, provides a great place for just plain fun. Here James Tucker, Micheale Futch, Kirklyn Cox, Franklin Waits. and Annette Hardiman enjoy the tire swing on a Sunday afternoon. During her free time, Jill Hess collects donations and gives Toot- sie Rolls for the retarded childrens’ fund. New student Dee Bell enjoys going to Wynne High School be- cause as she says, “the people are so friendly.” Our Wynne-ing Ways Landscaping, tracking, community support — all of these factors plus the students themselves make WHS unique. 2 Opening Mum sells are a great way to involve the students with people in the community. Here Joann Harper delivers one to Pam Holmes, and helps her pin it on. 4-H Week is off to a good start with the signing of the 4-H Proclamation by W. J. Wood as Chris Witcher watches. Many students held after school Jobs to earn a little extra money. Lynn Carwile makes her fortune by shelving and doing various odd Jobs at the Cross County Library. Opening 3 As they hurry toward their first-day classes, students find time to renew old friendships after the summer. Refreshments served by Mr. Kittrell and Mrs. Shaver were an added attraction to the annual art show. Our Wynne-ing Ways The people, teachers, and especially the pep rallies make high school a lot better than Jr. High,’ said Freshman James Burke. Most students could think of qualities that made WHS unique when given time to ponder the question. For instance, the Student Council’s interest in landscaping initiated the Campus Improvement Project. Clubs donated time and money for planting trees, grass, and flower beds, in addition to purchas- ing benches to place around the courtyard area. “The Campus Improvement Project is one of the best things I’ve seen students involved in during the eight years I’ve been principal here,” stated Darrell Smith. Our school was special in other ways also. Begin- ning in the fourth grade, students were tracked and placed in clases according to their learning ability. Some people, like Tammy Butler, wished “we were mixed up in other classes.” Others such as Barry Ford, felt differently. He said, “1 think it’s good be- cause people are allowed to work at their own speed.” Mrs. Cecelia Weeden thought the best part of our school was the “fact that students, teachers, parents, and the community all have the same goal in mind; to work for better education. People in our town supported any school activity, whether it was juniors selling mums and magazines, attending football games, or buying tickets to the school play. Parents worked on Monday, Thursday, and Friday nights to make money for the Band Boosters Club, while those interested in furthering education formed the Academic Boosters Club. As Tommye Curtner, our secretary summed it up, “We’ve never asked for support that we didn’t get.” 4 Openlng On the hot day of Festival '81, Sabrina Nowlin and Judy Weindal examine crafts made by citizens of Wynne.

People poured front every available exit, squelled from the parking lot. and hurried off to after school activities. Some students couldn't leave until later due to band and football practice or dub meetings Others stayed on campus to wait for buses or to attend detention hall. Those who worked hurried home to change clothes After a week or so of this, devvr ones tike Kristie Reeves began to wear their working clothes to school to avoid that extra trip home After school fobs were a good source of additional spending money. There were diligent workers who. upon arriving home, did homework in order to haw their ewnings open This free time could be used to visit friends, watch TV. or THREE ride around. Others reversed the process, and saved homework for later on, such as George Bailey who “sat on a store porch and watched the Jr. High kids get out of school After four typical days came Friday, which meant a change of pace Every per- son had their preferences, but most agreed with Paul Pankey who felt “the best times are being out partying! Despite sky-high prices, pennies were pinched and saved for gas to ride around on Friday and Saturday nights Driving long durances w as worth the cost to Andy Boone because as far as he was concerned “going to Fayetteville to watch the Rarorbacks beat Texas can't be topped”’ r r War rtw VH.WS fiM it. town. and Join DoScrr. can •Ami Sr Vxutx: sevms dov the Student Life r vjsKn7 With the end of school coming. Key Clubbers have a picnic at Village Creek Park to celebrate. Siloam Springs Baptist Assembly is a good place for Lee Covington to show his volleyball expertise. 8 Fun Although students daily lives contained a constant bombardment of pressures and aggrevations, such as having four tests on one day, leaving their government book at home, seeing the clock read 7:52 when they awakened, or having a flat tire on the way home from school, there came a time when they put all this out of mind, and just sat back and . . .

LET THE FUN BEGIN Fun 9 LET THE FUN BEGIN Outside of school hours, one didn’t have to look hard to find students having a great time. During summer vacation months, students enjoyed the blissful state of having no homework, reports, journals, or precis due, and no tests. Stu- dents took trips to vacation spots such as Heber Springs, to camps, and to summer schools. In June. Festival ‘81 provided a day of events, exhibits, and con- tests for a large crowd. Sports such as golfing, swimming, ten- nis and baseball kept many stu- dents active. Village Creek State Park was a popular spot for pic- nickers. After August 21st, students waited until after school to un- leash their pent up energy. They headed to the Sonic for a bite to eat, went home to catch an episode of “General Hospital,” or got up a game of basektball or touch football with friends. Senior Rose Ann Clayton commented, “Usually I finish homework and then try to get some exercise through things like tennis or riding bikes. When I’m not in the mood for those things. I’ll just visit friends.” Most students lived for the weekend. When the weekend was officially brought in at 5:00 on Friday afternoon on ROCK 103, the party began. The weekend was a time to indulge in pleasures. Students might witness a Jacket victory, devour a pan pizza at the Pizza Hut, or just ride around town with friends. Sometimes students got together to watch a good movie on HBO. But when the desire for something more current hit them, students took their dates to Memphis, Jonesboro, or For- rest City to see Stripes,” “Ar- thur,” “Endless Love,” “Only when I Laugh,” or one of the others. When concerts came to Memphis, WHS’ers were there to hear Foreigner, Van Halen, Styx, and Tom Petty. On Satur- days, Razorback fans traveled to Little Rock or Fayetteville to see the Hogs in action. When the hunting seasons ar- rived, people took to the woods and fields to stalk the game of the season. “I love to spend my time out amongst nature and in the midst of the woods, studying animals in their natural habi- tats,” remarked teacher Mr. El- bert Person. Camping and canoeing contented outdoors persons. For most students, the fun times they had together were what made the year great. Be- cause all throughout the year, whether they were out with friends or just relaxing at home, Wynne students were letting the good times roll! Atari, an interesting video game, takes up much of Karen Diggs’ and Cara Kay Moery’s spare time. 10 Fun Many a quarter is spent by students like Earl House on the electronic games around town. Uno could be played for hours by Janet Immel and Terri Burns because of its unpredictability. Wicked but fun, Eric Stark tells Julia Miller the latest gossip. Fun 11 WE'RE PROUD At this time, I think school pride is higher than it's ever been. — Dwan Wilson The Varsity football team captured the district title and carried the pigskin all the way to second place at state. In track, the senior girls’ team took the district title in the mile run, while the mile relay team stole first place at State. The Junior class sold 1,472 mums by the close of sales on Monday afternoon. Part of the money went towards the deco- rations for the “Underwater Fantasy.” In addition to a scuba diver suspended from the ceil- ing, there was a giant wave that extended from the dining area to the dance floor. The presentation of Ok- lahoma by the Drama Club was a smashing success, with a total attendance of 1,450. One hundred eight students partici- pated in the production, in jobs ranging from actors to publicity to band members. Scott Ed- wards, an Oklahoma band member, noted that each night brought a better performance. “The third night was fantastic.” 12 Proud “Curly” (Dennis Lawrence) and “Laurie” (Susan Beaton) sing “Peo- ple Will Sav We’re In Love.” “And this one is for track,” says Jill Hess as she points out a trophy in the display case.” One of the most popular features of the Prom is the buffet with a variety of seafood to eat. To complete the Underwater Fantasy. Leigh Ann Thomas, Frankie Swaims. and Mr. Yarnold construct a ship. Proud 13 Excitedly cheering the team on, the Homecoming Court watches the Jackets score against Osceola. Escorted by her father. Dedra Stegall stands at attention during the Na- tional Anthem. 14 Proud WE’RE PROUD Pride springs up in various places; the halls and classes, the streets of our town, and the teams that go to competitions. Halls were full of decorations and excited students Home- coming week. Hobo Day and Joe Cool Day were a favored change for dress-up activities. Another new twist was the snake dance, which involved more individuals than the usual parade. First place in the history con- test at EACC was captured for the fourth year. First overall was Alex Young, Michael Weaver was fourth place, and Wynne placed first in the group compe- tition. Not to be outdone, math stu- dents Kevin Brown and Hoang Bui won first places in trigonometry and Algebra II at the regional math contest at Jonesboro. Top English stu- dents tried their hand at a college-bowl type competition and received second place for their diligent efforts. Three members of WHS were selected to attend the Governor’s School for the Gifted. Kellie Mulhollen, Dennis Lawrence and Hoang Bui were involved in the program that lasted from June 15 to July 18. Hoang, who went in the mathematics area said, “I think it’s a great program. I enjoyed it tremendously.” Each of these activities con- tributed toward increasing the pride reflected in the students. With heads high, the flag corps patri- otically salute the flag. All attention is focused on Bettye Fis- cus as she's introduced to the All-Star Game crowd. Governor's school participants Den- nis Lawrence and Kelli Mulhollen dis- cuss their experiences. O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A is shouted by the cast as they conclude the play. Emotion runs wild as the Jr. track team displays their trophy. Proud 15 GAMES PEOPLE PLAY During May, June, and July’s heat, twenty-five boys practiced for two hours a day, four days a week at Raley Field to sharpen their baseball skills. At another field, girls rehearsed similar warm-up techniques for soft- ball. For the boys’ team, the long hot hours paid off as they won twenty of their twenty-five games. The girls, instead of traveling from town to town as the boys did, battled against local competition, in which the Forrester Fertilizer team emerged the winner. Bowling offered weekly competition for those who pre- ferred a less seasonal sport. John Young, a bowler, stated, “I really enjoy bowling, and be- sides learning a sport, I also get to meet new people.” Some students enjoyed vig- orous exercise from such sports as racquetball, tennis, swim- ming, ultimate frisbee, and flag football. Timmy Andrews an avid football player was quoted as saying, “Football gives me a chance to get together with my friends and have a good time on a Sunday afternoon.” Patiently waiting for a fish to bite, David Reagler watches for the first sign of a big catch. A competitive game of ping-pong is an enjoyable way to spend the after- noon for Barry Ford and Mike Nutt. Exercise such as jogging keeps Ricky and Robby Hass in shape. 16 Non-School Sports Even though one ball slipped by. Junior Ragle shakes it off and plans to improve on his second chance. If only skate laces weren’t so long. Kim Wheeler could untangle the mess much quicker and get busy skating. Chalked up and taking his aim is Sean Coyne as he prepares to shoot to pocket the striped ball. Non-School Sports 17 Snakes, pyramids, circles — all can be formed by Ms. Kathy Branch as she operates her new Rubik snake. Successor to the Rubik’s cube, the pyramid is a mind-boggler as Wade Hendrix works for the solution. Faster than a speeding bullet, Keith Clayton solves the combination of the Rubik’s cube in under a minute. Dedicated puzzledoer Teresa Throg- morton has found the solution to boredom; carry a Rubik key ring. 18 Rubik s Cube Rack Your Brain It could make a grown person scream and tear their hair out with total frustration or it could provide an interesting hour fill- ed with challenge. This mind- boggling object was Rubik's cube, one of the many crazes that swept students and teach- ers alike off their feet. Ms. Sandy Reynolds thought the cube helpful in math because, It teaches you how to attack a problem logically. The cube, invented by Erno Rubik, a thirty-seven year old professor of architecture in Budapest. Hungary, was origi- nally designed to help students deal with three-dimensional ob- jects. I think of it as a game, a teaching aid, a puzzle, and a piece of art, reflected Rubik is People magazine. Everywhere one looked, it seemed as though someone struggled to crack the nerve- racking puzzle and get all the same colors on their respective side. Some students even had cubes on key chains! Vicki Smith gave the view of many students. “It’s a challenging puzzle and I enjoy it.” It did not take long for some students to crack the cube, but it did take practice and patience. Most did not take the cube seriously and to Susan Mize it proved to be a fun way to pass an hour. Despite the expense. Brad Gentle decides to see what is causing so much excitement and conversation. Rubik” s Cube 19 Making Of A Senior Finally, that long awaited senior year arrived. Eleven long years of waiting and extra ex- penses. lighter class loads, and above all. special privileges. Senior rings took a sizable chunk out of a student's funds, but proud ring-flashers felt the money was well spent. After all. rings distinguished a senior from an average student. A first occurred when the school no longer sponsored senior photo- graphs. which forced seniors to seek a professional. The ma- jority paid a $30 deposit fee. and were photographed by Robert Jenkins. “Invitations, cap and gown fittings, and senior ads are all worth it when you realize that it is our own graduation we are preparing for. commented Karen Spain. Despite the added expenses, the life of a senior still held ad- vantages. Only two classes. English IV and American Gov- ernment. were required. This al- lotted more time for electives such as Family Living, Account- ing. and Physics. Study halls were especially convenient if scheduled sixth period. Seniors with a note signed by their par- ents could leave school for work at two o'clock. Another privilege was ex- emption from final examina- tions. Underclassmen envied that right more and more as the time for final exams drew near. But only seniors could qualify by maintaining a B average, a good conduct grade, and no truancies. “I feel that the qualifi- cations for exemption are rea- sonable but should apply to the first semester as well,” stated Lori McClain. As May sixteenth approached senioritous increased and the long years of waiting were for- gotten with the commencement exercises. Commencement exercises is un- doubtedly the highlight for seniors anticipating their turn to graduate. Seniors Cathy Spencer. Lori Ellis, and Lynn Carwile take time to purchase their senior advertisements. College applications like this one that Ricky Stanley is completing are a common sight for most WHS seniors. Measurements for caps and gowns in- dicate to seniors like Crandal Hagler that graduation is near. 3B8KM Aid in invitation choices is given to David Dallas by Mr. Tim Brown. “Look at mine!” exclaim Eda Wilson. Wanda Williams and Kristi Reeves who are proud members of the 1982 class. With the rise in unemployment stu- dents join others in line for job inter- views at the new K-Mart. Since ketchup now counts as a vege- table in our lunchroom. Tammy Ball uses her package conservatively. Just turned eighteen. Charles Lyons does his duty by registering. Lunches cost fifteen cents more than they did last year, but Vernon Pribble foots the bill. 22 Current Events Locally and Abroad (MSUzSlI ' ! Events that happened on the other side of the world began to frighten families with young men in them. Before Reagan announced that the United States would not interfere with Poland, those eligible for the draft began to wonder if they would be called to fight. A little closer to home, in El Salvador, the American public worried that another situation like Vietnam would begin. In- stead of troops, President Rea- gan sent $55 million in emer- gency military aid. Current news was not all bad. On September 24, 1981, Sandra Day O’Connor was sworn in as a justice on the Su- preme Court. Mrs. O’Connor was the first woman to be ap- pointed to the Supreme Court. Kendra Jarrett, obviously not too happy with the Reagan administration, commented, “Reagan promised to have a woman on the Supreme Court. He kept one promise and I’m glad. Across the Atlantic at St. Paul’s Cathedral on July 29. 1981, Prince Charles of Wales and Lady Diana Spencer ex- changed wedding vows in a lavish ceremony. 1 was amazed at how big a wedding it was. It was beautiful and expensive-looking, noted Kim Crabtree. In September an- other pageant was held in which Arkansas' Elizabeth Ward was crowned Miss America. Locally, the opening of a new K Mart store brought hope to those people who had been laid off at Sanyo and Halstead In- dustries. The first day applica- tions were taken, a line of more than 700 job-hunters stood in the K Mart parking lot with re- sumes and applications in hand. Rising inflation seemed a fa- vorite topic of politicians and yet caused changes in the prices of those wanted new cars. Gov- ernment policy decided such school issues as what food went on the lunch trays and whether grants for college would be available. Lay-offs in local in- dustries limited part time job possibilities as well as summer jobs. All the news affected stu- dents in one way or another. New car costs keep rising but de- spite the expense, Alex Young hopes he can afford one for gradu- ation. In spite of federal cutbacks Frances Haire completes the Family Financial Statement. Current Events 23 OUR WYNNE-ING WAYS . . . ON CAMPUS J. R. Ewing was aptly termed “the man we love to hate.” This same phrase applied to the academic division of school. Students pretended to hate school, because that was the thing to do. They complained, moaned, and groaned about assignments from the first tone to the last, since no red-blooded American student liked homework, tests, and six one-hour periods a day. Despite the accepted norm, some stu- dents realized the importance of classes and appreciated the knowledge gained from them, as well as the credit each class earned towards graduation. For instance, English was LaDonna Wilson's favorite class be- cause “even though 1 have to take it, 1 like the literature section.” Of course, not every required course was considered interesting, but at least most were tolerable. Since elec- tives were chosen by the individual, they seemed to receive fewer complaints from students. Even if school was hated, extracurricular activities brightened up some days. Almost twenty clubs provided an outlet for a variety of interests ranging from drama to farming. Meetings were squeezed in before and after school, as well as during classtime twice a semester. Projects occupied a large space on a club’s agenda. FBLA’ers sold candy, while the FTA collected cans for funds. Be- sides club members’ contribution of time, officers often spent spare hours planning club events, including guest speakers at meetings, parties, and other social activities. Jamie Wilson summarized the qualities of clubs by saying, “Clubs are good because they let students get involved and interact with people they wouldn’t meet otherwise. ’ ’ Benches in the courtyard provide a place for Gina Hess to prepare for a quiz while Barbara Smith thinks about her future academic goals. 24 Academics Organizations Academics Organizations 25 Striving Scholars Dedication, determination and a willing- ness to study — these ingredients proved necessary for honor graduates. Eleven indi- viduals achieved a 5.4 grade point which qualified them as honor graduates. Hoang Bui. Patti Hagaman, Michael Weaver, and Alex Young earned the distinction of high honor graduates. Since English is not my best language. I've had quite a few problems with it, par- ticularly in English Composition,” stated Hoang Bui. The difficult task of conquering a new language did not stifle Hoang's grades. In fact, he graduated with a 5.95 and planned a career in medicine. Participating in the Arkansas Junior Miss program proved to be an enlightening ex- perience for Patti Hagaman, who decided to continue studying music in college and graduate school. Patti kept a perfect 6.0 throughout high school and her ultimate goal included teaching piano at the college level. Honor graduate Lisa Hill liked working with numbers and obviously did well in her other subjects. English proved to be her most challenging class. After graduating from Wynne High School, Lisa planned to try and get a really good job. Although Janet Immel liked English Lit- erature best, her most rewarding exeriences came through band and choir. Janet's fu- ture goal was to receive a degree in music therapy from Henderson State University. Challenges seemed to intrigue Susan Kinley. For this reason, she chose trigonometry as her favorite subject and ac- counting as her career. Susan also met chal- lenges in music by making all-region choir. “All four years of English were my favor- ite because I love to read literature, espe- cially good novels, commented Kelli 26 Honor Graduates Mulhollen. She intended to major in pre- dentistry at Harding University, become a dental hygienist and eventually teach in a dental technology school. English did not come easily to everyone. Rachel Reagler admitted that it was her most difficult subject. Because she liked solving equations in math, Rachel planned to travel all the way to Bloomington, In- diana, receive a degree in accounting from Indiana University, and finally become a CPA. Tonya Ruston chose to pursue her edu- cation at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville. Tonya, who excelled in mathematics, hoped to major in computer science. She also excelled as an athlete and played on the state championship basket- ball team. Accepting a NROTC scholarship at the University of Mississippi and pursuing an electrical or naval career for at least four years after college comprised Michael Weaver’s ambitious endeavors. Michael at- tained the grade point of 5.95, which gave him the distinction of high honor graduate. “Competing in the district volleyball tournament highlighted Judy Weindel’s senior year. Academically, mathematics, especially geometry, interested her. There- fore, her future interests lay in the field of computer science. Pre-medicine courses would probably occupy most of Alex Young’s time at the University of Mississippi. For seven semes- ters. Alex maintained a perfect 6.0 and claimed, “American history was very inter- esting because the teacher added a lot of outside materials to the course. Honor Graduates: Alex Young. Hoang Bui.

Honor Graduates 27 Crossing the Language Barrier Going to English class every day for four years in a row proved strenuous on the stu- dents but the English department also had to prepare for it A special curriculum developed by the English teachers allowed them to or- ganize their classes and make alterations every five years to accommodate the change in some books. According to Language Department direc- tor Ms. Martha Matthews, her basic goal in teaching English involved teaching students to speak and write correctly with an interesting style. She believed it was important for stu- dents to be shown a world of literature that may open a vista to them that they could in many cases never experience otherwise. Speech classes were also taught in order for students to use their basic language skills. Oral interpretation, platform debate, and drama made up the curriculum. Mr. Yarnold required the students to do approximately five different oral interpretations and eight to ten speeches ranging from three to ten minutes in length. I feel that the experience of speaking in front of people will help me in the future. commented Charlotte Aldridge. Research papers may not be fun. but the work still has to be done to complete Lisa Andrews' topic. Speeches are a major part of Mr. Randy Yarnold’s class so Christie Jones tries to in- terest him.

Those dreaded research papers are nearing completion for seniors Melvin Graham. Nugene Bell, and Steven Rushing as they work in the library. 30 Language Department Crossing the Language Barrier Working to obtain more knowledge of the language, culture, and traditions of Spain was one of the goals of the Spanish classes this year. The first year classes learned the basics while the second year class went into a more detailed study of the Spanish language and customs.

Considering the cold weather, the overall turn-out was good. asserted Leigh Anne Reeve. Other activities such as a trip to Pancho's and a combination initiation ceremony and banquet added to the spring activities. In order to learn about the Mexican as well as the Spanish culture. Mexican food was served at Pancho's and Spanish dishes were prepared at the banquet. President Sabrina Nowlin emphasized the goal of the club, We're working hard to make the club more active in school and social functions.

Rush! Rush! Rush! Everyone seemed to be in a hurry to meet deadlines. Stinger staff members usually managed to meet that fateful day when every piece of copy, every picture, every layout, and all those little last minute details had to be finished, put in envelopes and sent to the publishers. Then the process to try and produce an interest- ing, colorful, creative memory that captured the aura of the year started all over again. “I enjoy being on the Stinger staff be- cause it gives me the chance to work behind the scenes as well as on the scene in sports,” stated sports editor Michael Jeffrey. It was not only the Stinger staff that made a memorable contribution. The Yellow- jacket staff publicized campus activities and timely events that concerned high school Layout designing is one of the responsibilities that Rachel Reagler has as associate editor. students. It is the responsibility of the WHS Yellowjacket to reflect the activities and in- terests of the student body, confirmed Yel- lowjacket advisor Mary Bob Brawner. Be- sides publishing the Yellowjacket, staff members also sold pennants to help finance the cost of publishing. “It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to put together a good paper and that is what each member of the WHS Yellowjacket tries to obtain,” com- mented Yellowjacket editor Sherry Mitchell. Mrs. Brawner’s fifth period Journalism class was involved in a group project in which they practiced publishing a paper to gain experience for the following year as Yellow- jacket staff members. “Flight. a series of poems and stories written by students was published by the members of Quill and Scroll, whose mem- bers were chosen from the other publication staffs for excellent work.

Mrs. Dodd’s earth science classes made volcano eruptions. The biology classes dissected worms and frogs.

Challenging Computations Many students worked ahead in their math classes to prepare for contests. “I enjoy going to math contests because they are challenging,” commented Hoang Bui. The newest thing in math was computers. During the summer, Mrs. Judy Ahart, Miss Kathy Branch, and Mrs. Janet Shropshire attended a computer workshop and bought computers. Some math classes then used these computers. It gave me a chance to learn something from a computer and have fun with it as well, said Ray Calaway, who operated one of the computers in algebra. With society rushing headlong into an age of computers, school officials said that one day they hoped to have computers and computer courses in high school.

Those Who Repeat the Past “I think history is important because of the fact that in a democracy the people rule, and to rule wisely creates a need to understand our past,” was Mrs. Sherman Washington’s view concerning the impor- tance of history. Arkansas History, World History, American History, World Culture and American Government — these were courses available to students from grades nine to twelve. Ninth grade students could take Arkan- sas History. “In Arkansas History you learn about many different things to do in Arkansas and about how Arkansas be- came a state,” commented Rob Hass. Globes help students like Rodney Tucker under- stand the position of our country in respect to others. History became a required subject in the tenth grade with World History which involved different countries and cultures. One course, World Culture, was not re- quired and involved the traditions and cul- tures of people throughout the world. “I chose to take World Culture because I enjoy learning the different customs of the world and the work we do is a lot of fun,” added Brenda Robinson. Along with the eleventh grade came American History, where students learned about the founda- tion of our country and the heroes that made it strong. In twelfth grade American Government students studied procedures followed by the United States govern- ment. History Team: Tonya Ruston. Alex Young.

The UN team was also in full swing. Rep- resenting the countries of Morocco and Ga- bon, the members went to Conway on the weekend of December 4th and 5th to dis- cuss the problems of freedom of the seas, defense, and economics as they related to their countries. Micheale Futch summed up what was felt by the majority of the team, “I really enjoyed going and I really learned a lot.” World Culture proves to be an interesting class as students learn the customs of other countries. Clusters for American Government take much re- search in the library as Susan Kinley. Dennis Lawr- ence, and Janet Immel discover first semester. History was not only limited to classroom involvement, the history team overpowered the competition at the testing in Forrest City. The members were chosen on a volunteer basis. In preparing for the test, they went over what they had previously learned and studied ahead on things they had not cov- ered. Out of the ten who volunteered, eight placed in the top ten and Wynne received the overall trophy for the sixth year in a row. Alex Young, who made a perfect score on his SAT history test, placed first in this con- test. “Being selected as a part of the history team was an honor to me.

Choral students became familiarized with various composers and styles of music while at the same time improving their voice. They also learned about the musical periods under the direction of Mrs. Mary Jeff Loewer. Band provided students a chance to leam to play various instruments such as the flute, clarinet, saxophone, tenor sax. French horn, and tuba Painting, silk-screening, and making pottery were a few of the things students of art became acquainted with.

Profits from Ok- lahoma provided funds which enabled the choir to hold their fall concert free of charge. The Christmas concert followed a tradition of open admission, which meant more par- ents and students attended to hear songs like. “Christmas Day,” featuring several soloists. One soloist. Gerald Britton, admit- ted. “1 was nervous because I am a sopho- more and it was the first time I ever per- formed a solo Concerts were accompanied by practice for contests. The Madrigals, composed of fourteen volunteer singers, spent long hours preparing for the Hendrix Madrigal Festival held as a learning experience and not for a rating. However, good ratings proved es- sential for the Concert Choir at Region Choir Festival on March 23rd. A score of one or two allowed them to proceed to State Festival on April 13th. Mrs. Loewer stated. We have more mature voices since half of this year's choir is made up of seniors. Also, they have had more voice training because the majority have been in choir for three consecutive years. Elegant formal clothes add to the sophisticated ap- pearance of the Concert Choir directed by Mrs. Loewer in a performance for the Rotary Club. Choreography adds a welcome new dimension to the performance of the girls choir at the annual spring concert held in the school auditorium. In order to play well during choir, accompanist Janet Immel must work after hours to successfully complete the daily requirements of the job. 46 Choral Department The choir’s annual spring concert begins tradition- ally with a warm welcome extended to the audience by choir director Mrs. Mary Jeff Loewer. Added Attractions While the choral department brought to mind endless drills, tough try-outs, and long practice sessions, ensembles added enjoy- ment to the daily activities of choir. “Pop ensemble is my favorite ensemble because we do a lot more choreography and popular songs,” commented Steve Zanone. Other groups included Barber Shop and Beauty Shop Quartets, chosen on the basis of “voices that blend and people that sing well together, said Mrs. Mary Jeff Loewer. While volunteers made up the Madrigals, Pop Ensemble, Barber Shop Quartet, Beauty Shop Quartet, and Concert Choir required try-outs. As a new addition this year, first period combined with second period to form the Varsity Mixed Choir, which created a place for more guys to learn to read music and have vocal instruction before entering the Concert Choir. Breaks from practice come very rarely and these choir members take advantage of their luck and try to make the most of this special free time.

The first thing involved in pro- ducing a play was to consider what available talents there would be for auditions. Plans began very early to allow time for ordering materials. Working out a functional rehear- sal schedule to fit in the school calendar was the next thing that had to be done, with tryouts next on the agenda. For a straight play, a reading audition was held. Musical tryouts included a reading and singing audi- tion. “The object of auditions was to build the strongest cast possible out of the talent available at Wynne High School, com- mented Mr. Randy Yarnold, sponsor of the Drama Club.

After the auditions, scripts and scores were assigned. The actors had only one to two weeks to learn their lines and songs. Rehearsals lasted about five to six weeks, five to six nights a week, for about two or three hours a night. “It was a very different experience. I learned how difficult it was to maintain a certain character for four hours at a time,” said Rosolyn Daniel. While rehearsals were going on, the committees worked diligently. The make- up committee learned the various tech- niques used to prepare actors for opening night. Members of the set committee con- structed scenery.

They've Got The Music In Them While most students still enjoyed their summer vacation during the last two weeks before school started, seventy-eight Senior Band members arrived at 7 o’clock each morning for marching practice. Even before that, the flag and rifle corps practiced. Karen Bundy from Memphis State came in June to teach them new drills. “The extra practice helped a lot,” commented Sheila Boeck- mann. rifle captain. “This was one of the best years the auxiliaries have had. The first of three marching contests the band attended was at Arkansas State Uni- versity. After sitting in the rain all day, the band was elated to receive a first division rating. “Even though we were cold and wet, that trophy made it all worthwhile, admit- ted band member Tammy Ball. The band then traveled to Little Rock to the Central Arkansas Marching Festival where they re- ceived a rating of two. The region IX march- ing contest at West Memphis also took place on a rainy muddy night. The band got a second division rating and ranked third overall. In addition, first division ratings were awarded to the flags, rifles, and ma- jorettes. “One night that the band didn’t come to the game, we really noticed the difference. The crowd didn’t seem to have near as much spirit as usual,” observed varsity cheerleader Sabrina Nowlin. The band also livened up the pep rallies. Marching in the Christmas parade was the last marching event. Concert season began after football sea- son ended. In January, thirteen students competed in the All-Region tryouts at Mar- ion. Of these, seven qualified to try out for All-State. The funniest part about All-State tryouts was the night before,” commented two-time qualifier Baker Yates. In March, the band attended the Region Contest at Marianna. To bring the year to a close, the band gave a public concert in May. Drumsticks keeping time to the music.

After school started, students in the new gym or building two first period heard the band practicing on the field. Eighth grade stu- dents caught a bus to the junior high every morning which sometimes meant standing in the cold or rain. The first half-time per- formance of the junior band was September third at Marion. Four students, Chris Thomas, Michelle Gordon, Ken James, and Sulyn Miles played in both senior and junior bands. “I enjoyed being in both bands because it gave me more time to practice my trom- bone, said Chris Thomas. The band attended only one marching contest, the Region Nine Marching Contest at West Memphis, where they received a second division rating. Danny Glover got the Outstanding Drum Major Award. In December, twenty-four students qual- ified for All-Region at the Junior Clinic try- outs. On March 26. the band competed in the Region Concert Contest at Marianna. Director Randy Meyer commented. We played three selections, Look Forward March. “Little Scotch Suite, and “Ameri- can Sea Rhapsody. The Kiwanis Club hosted a special ban- quet for both the junior and senior bands in April. A spaghetti supper followed by a pub- lic concert finalized the band's activities.

Twenty- two students were involved in the program. They rode a bus every day to Forrest City attending classes at Crowley’s Ridge Voca- tional Technical School. There were two work programs, GCECA and CCECA, taught by Mrs. Kathi Turner and Mr. Paul Nichols, respectively. Town businesses hired members of the organizations for af- ternoon jobs. GCECA projects included a float in the homecoming parade, a bar- becue, and a hayride. “GCECA bought food for a needy family at Thanksgiving and clothing for foster children at Christmas,” Mr. Nichols informed. Mrs. Turner com- An Industrial Arts money making project advances as Lynn Harris labors on completing the building. mented, “There were two special activities which we were involved in. In April, both organizations held a banquet to honor em- ployers. That same month, there was a state convention at Hot Springs which we at- tended. ’ Home Economics classes improved im- portant skills such as cooking, sewing, and child care. Accounting. Typing, and Gen- eral Business were popular courses among students who wished to prepare for the fu- ture. These students balanced checkbooks, typed, wrote business letters, and kept ac- curate records of business finances. The Agri classes had two new instructors, Mr. Larry Jones and Mr. Larry Brawner. One of our class projects was constructing stor- age buildings. They were built just as a house would be. and later sold for a profit, said Mr. Jones.

The Working Class General Cooperative Education Clubs of Arkansas classes, taught by Mr. Paul Nichols, discussed various topics such as insurance, taxes, banking, labor laws, economics, marriage, divorce, savings and investing. This helped students to better understand what life in the ’‘real” world was like. These students gained on-the-job train- ing as they attended classes only half the day and worked the rest of the day. In a year when jobs were hard to come by. these students were lucky to be employed. In its twelfth year as an active organiza- tion, GCECA was involved in many com- munity service projects as well as recrea- tional activities. The club had forty-eight members this year. “A special honor was bestowed on the club when member Bill Smith was elected state secretary. Bill was the first male to hold that position,” re- marked Mr. Nichols.

The twenty-eight member group went to school until 11:30 and then the rest of the day they were employed in various places around town. Vice-President Melvin Taylor stated, “My part time job on the farm is helping me to learn for this job in the future.” The members of the CCECA were busy doing other things as well. Last year at the state convention, Jerry Frazier won first place in the talent contest. This year’s con- vention was held in Hot Springs and mem- bers participated in such contests as math, spelling, public speaking, essay, and par- liamentary procedure. Besides the conven- tion, the club also had a banquet on March 25 to honor their employers. Additional ac- tivities for the CCECA included skating par- ties and an occasional picnic. Terraniums were built by David Whiteside. Mickey Bell. Mary Jackson. Marcus Andrews, and Kenneth Heard during their cluster on agriculture. Installation of CCECA officers is made twice as interesting by the different types of outfits each per- son wore, representing their own job.

Pointing out the sirloin cuts on the beef chart is Jerry Walker. Shop work in Agri gives Brian Andrews an opportu- nity to practice working with simple tools such as hammers, and later more complicated ones. Cream Of The Crop The big change for agricultural students was the hiring of two new teachers, Mr. Larry Brawner and Mr. Larry Jones. These men taught such topics as plant science, animal science, agri-mechanics, and par- liamentary procedure. One of the few females to take agri, Kristi Reeves stated, “I felt that by taking agri I could learn a lot of things that would be helpful later. Most people don't consider agri a class for girls, but after all. women can do anything men can.” Industrial arts teacher Mr. Mike Bigham explained some of the skills students in his class learned. We studied architectural maching, drafting, model construction, osy-acetylene welding, arc welding, wood work 1 and II, metal working, and general shop.” These students were also responsi- ble for building the frames for the fire drill posters and for constructing signs for the student council. Vernon Pribble was president of Future Farmers of America, an organization for students interested in careers in the field of agriculture. Mr. Brawner and Mr. Jones co- sponsored the eighty-eight member club. Following tradition, FFA entered a float in the Christmas Parade. They also entered three contests: a mechanics contest at Delta Vo-Tech, a leadership contest at Earle, and a livestock judging contest at Arkansas State University. FFA 61 As a service project.

They studied human de- velopment, including heredity, values, per- sonal decisions, career decisions and health, as well as food and nutrition, and grooming and physical fitness.

The club donated $348 to the FHA headquarters in Washing- ton for the building fund. They also decided to donate a teaching aid or other equipment to Miss Polly’s Day Care Center. Mrs. Raffety reported, “Sandra Cribbs, FHA president, was elected Federation IX officer for 1981-1982. Also Denetrice Wil- liams was elected to that position for the coming year.” February 7-13 was designated as Na- tional FHA Week, so club members adver- tised with posters around campus. The Wynne Chapter of FHA sent thirty mem- bers to the state convention in Little Rock on May 27. The club ended the year by hosting a picnic for its fifty-eight members. Installation of new FHA officers is both fun and exciting for Joyce Riley and Sandra Cribbs. FHA’ers Angela Aldridge. Denetrice Williams and Gwen Cunningham participate actively in FHA week by dressing appropriately on Red and White Day.

Mrs. Donna Prysock. served as sponsor. President Kelli Mulhollen and other club members attended a fall workshop at Jonesboro in September. Another impor- tant event was the Competitive Business Skills Contest held at Marked Tree in which seven FBLA members participated. Guest speakers at our monthly meeting have in- cluded Senator Clarence Bell and Mr. Rafe Andrews from the Cross County Bank, said FBLA member Barbara Smith. Besides their money-making candy sale, FBLA had several other projects planned. They prepared a food basket for a needy family at Christmas, and sponsored a blood pressure check for students. FBLA also worked on their campus beautification project from last year to make it even more attractive, remarked Mrs. Prysock. The students involved in FBLA took business courses such as Typing 1 and II. accounting. Basic Office Education, and general business — courses which gave them job training. However, many students who were not interested in business careers still found these courses helpful whether they planned to type college term papers or balance a family budget. 64 Leadership — FBLA Responsibility for keeping the FBLA’s campus beautification area falls to committee head Susan Kinley. who replaces bark lost yearly.

Sponsor Elbert Person taught the group how to load, hold, and aim the guns in a way to prevent acci- dents. The Gun Club familiarized me with a gun, and provided an opportunity to use a gun in target practice,” asserted Kim Wheeler. The members of the Gun Club received a shoulder patch, an ID card, and a bumper sticker upon completing the course with a passing grade. Not only were the members of the Gun Club exposed to the gun safety course, but students enrolled in Advanced P.E. were as well. “I’m glad gun safety was taught in Advanced P.E. because it gave people who have never used guns the opportunity to learn about them,” noted Sheila Hampton. Another indoor event that the students were involved in was bowling. When the warm weather came, the students played tennis and ran track. In the regular P.E. course, rhythmic exer- cises like aerobic, folk, and square dancing were taught. “They really enjoyed the aerobic dancing,” confessed Mrs. Joann Snider. Those in regular P.E. also played tennis and softball outdoors and badminton inside. They studied a unit on body me- chanics. The major area covered in this unit was posture. Posture, diet, and drug abuse were some of the areas covered in the health classes. Coach and health teacher Kevin McClel- land said, “I enjoy teaching Health because it deals with things students will use every day.” Score keeping, the tricky part of bowling, keeps David Slocum fully occupied between turns. 66 Health Safety Health student Basil Purnell examines the fascinat- ing structure of a human skeleton model.

There the summer workshop was held, complete with model chapters, mock campaigns, and speeches on improving FTA. State historian Alex Young com- mented. “The seven of us worked hard to present our workshop, but we still had fun. ’ Pennies, collected for the third year, helped the ACTION peace corps build a school house. Selling sweaters and Current stationery, along with collecting cans, earned funds for the spring and fall lunch- eons. plus a scholarship for a senior mem- ber of FTA. Dial For Assistance, a new service project, enabled FTA’ers to assist elderly people with everyday chores around the house. Besides work, the club had time for extra activities, such as the annual Christmas party held at Alex Youngs home. “After working all semester it is great to have a Christmas party to celebrate and relax to- gether. stated FTA vice-president Baker Yates. On teaching day, students became teachers for a day. Nervous students and teachers enjoyed themselves as the day progressed. Beth Bassham, who taught kindergarten, said, “It made me feel special to know all the children looked up to the student teachers because we were in high school.” While FTA was a club for leaders in the teaching field, other groups led in quite dif- ferent ways. For instance, class officers were responsible for important activities, includ- ing the production of the prom by the junior class officers. A job as a senior class officer meant taking time to personally select a gift for each of the secretaries in order to show the appreciation felt for all the hard work and time they devoted to the seniors as they progressed through high school. 68; Leadership — FTA and Class Officers FTA 12.

Michael Weaver presided over the meet- ings ever other Wednesday morning. Be- cause the Kiwanis sponsored the club, their ideas and purposes were similar. The motto of the Key Club was “Caring Our Way of Life. The club performed service projects such as preparing a community calendar, helping with the Kiwanis Peanut Day and completing a campus beautification project. A full schedule kept Key Clubbers busy. Every Thursday morning, one or two club members attended the Kiwanis Club's breakfast meetings. In November, the club hosted its lieutenant governor at a special dinner meeting. In February, the Key Club conducted a model Kiwanis meeting. “A pie-throwing booth at the P.T. A. Halloween Carnival and selling pens and keychains were three projects through which the Key Club earned money,” mentioned Scott Doss, chairman of the project committee. In an effort to become a more active club, the Beta Club planned several activities. First on their agenda was helping during Parents' Visitation Day in October. A tutor- ing program at the Intermediate School began in late spring. Also, the club provided help to Miss Polly’s Day Care Center by sending students over during their study halls. Sabrina Nowlin. Julie Andrews, Tammy Ball, and President Alex Young were four of the club's thirteen members who. along with the club's sponsors, Mrs. Joyce Brown and Mr. Elbert Person, attended the Beta Club convention in Little Rock on January 29-31. There they enjoyed a weekend of meetings, shopping, and a movie. Tins year we stayed only one night because we had so few people going that the expenses were so great. remarked Mrs. Brown.

The twenty-five member council origi- nated and led the campus beautification project. In addition to organizing the plans for the project, they also added shrubs and trees to their section of land in front of study hall. According to representative Donna Morris, The Student Council worked hard on the campus beautification project and we hope the student body will work equally as hard.” In order to pay for the upkeep of their section and to present the film. No Depos- it, No Return, the council completed sev- eral money-making projects. Ribbon sales brought in a total of $692.37 and selling programs at the football games increased their earnings to $1055.66. In the winter, delivering Valentine's candy raised approx- imately $600 as well as providing a good way for students to express friendship. Vice-president Craig Campbell explained. We earn money to support the student body and we appreciate all of their sup- port. Student Council members Karen Hillis and Craig Campbell take their turns operating the bookstore, which stocked various school supplies. Leadership — Student CounciV73 OUR WYNNE-ING WAYS . . . ATHLETICALLY In spring sports two conference cham- pionships were captured. Tennis team members' daily practice paid its dividends as the Jackets emerged victorious as both singles and doubles district champions and advanced to the state tournament. Thinclads' improved skills were rewarded with crowns in the junior girls' and senior boys' competition. Golf practices were easier as a result of a reconstructed course. The greens have been greatly improved and cleaned, which makes golfing easier for everyone,” com- mented Ricky Stanley. However, for the first time in twelve years, the golfers did not win the district title, but finished as runner- up. Summer heat found Yellowjacket grid ironers sweating in preparation for the up- coming season. As Bob Bethell summed it up, We put up with the heat because of our desire to have the best team we possibly could.” This motivation led the Jackets to capture their fifth consecutive conference championship and advance to the quarter- finals at the state level. Wynne’s volleyball team also began pre- paring for the season in the summer with practices twice a day. As a result, the Lady Jackets reached their peak at district tour- nament and finished third. Wynne High roundballers managed to take three of four conference crown„ in their respective divisions. The senior boys and girls, as well as the junior girls, achieved this rank, while the junior boys placed second. Dora Garcia, a junior player, admitted, Af- ter all the long hours of work, winning dis- trict gave us something to be proud of.” In order to continue their winning tradition, the Yellowjackets rush onto the field through a ban- ner made by faithful fans. 74 Sports Division Jackets! How Do You Feel? After a depleted squad of only four cheerleaders last year, cheerleading tryouts brought eight new faces to this year's squad and two returners. The to returners. Denise Pumell and Kay Kay Hunt offered their respective comment on the difference in the squads. The difference in having ten cheerleaders rather than four was that with ten you have more people to work with and you can do a variety of things to excite the crowd. On the other side of the fence Kay Kay stated that I don't feel there is a difference because our job is to promote spirit and that three could lead a crowd as well as ten. It's all in the way that it is presented and accepted by the stu- dents. The cheerleaders began their schedule in June with camp at Arkan- sas State University where they re- ceived one superior rating and four excellents. and they also won a spirit stick. Official practices began in early August as they worked on learning and perfecting their routines. They cheered through all types of weather conditions during the football season and they welcomed the move inside for basketball season.

Coming off of their best season since 1950 as State Runner-up, the Yellowjackets got off to their worst start in recent history. They lost their first three games to Class AAAA Helena and Forrest City reeling off three consecutive victories including two conference wins. The Jackets lost another non-conference game the fol- lowing week to Newport, before they pulled off two more conference wins to take a clean sweep and become District Champs for the fifth consecu- tive year.

For the fourth time in five seasons the Yellowjackets won the District title outright and qualified for the state play-offs as the champion of the 3-AAA conference. The Jackets opened the play-offs with an impressive win over the Whitehall Bulldogs from Pine Bluff. The offense scored four touchdowns in the first half while the defense al- lowed only one.

After falling behind early, the Jackets defense held the score close. Wynne almost rallyed in the fourth quarter when Dwan Wil- son threw to Craig Campbell to pull within three points. However, New- port scored on the ensuing kick off and held on to win 20-10. The Jackets placed ten men on the 3-AAA All-Region team: Dwan Wil- son, Howard Collins, Joey Owens, Leslie Covington, Kenny Oates, Ray Morris, Andy Boone, Michael Smith, Michael Jeffrey, and Colon Hutchi- son, who was also named outstanding lineman in the conference. In addition to these honors, Dwan Wilson and Colon Hutchison were later named to the AAA All-State team. This Seminole chase was all in vain. Kenny Oates ran the punt back for a touchdown.

However, after a crushing defeat at the hands of overpowering Forrest City, the Bees never regrouped. They lost four of their remaining six games and tied the other two. Losses came to Nettleton, West Memphis Wonder and East, and Earle. The ties were with Brinkley and Searcy. The Bees closed the season with a 1-5-2 record. Though they did not have an out- standing season record wise, there were some bright spots. Offensive leader and quarterback Lee Covington offered this comment on the season, “Our season didn’t turn out as we had hoped but we worked hard and learned a lot and I’m looking forward to Sr. High football.” The three runnng backs in the wishbone backfield were George Nelson, Austin Aldridge, and Jermone Morris. The defense was anchored by returning middle linebacker George Nelson. Others standing out on defense were Kieth Middlebrook, Michael Willis, Brad Cockrell, and Lindsey Thomp- son. Junior Football 83 Pass! Set! Spike! Win! The hardest part of the season was getting up early in the morning and being at practice on time,” admit- ted first-year volleyball player Deah Wheeler. Starting on August 11 from 8:30 to 11:00 and 4:00 to 6:00 the volleyball team practiced. They worked out twice a day, five days a week until August 21. After school started, practice was from 2:00 to 4:30 every afternoon. Their first game was a conference game against Bay. The girls ended regular season play with a conference record of 6-2. In the district tournament held at Valley View, the Ladyjacket Volleyball team won third place. Two players, Robbin McDaniel and Rosalyn Daniel were All-District players. When asked what she felt it took to make All-District, Robbin replied, “It takes a lot of prac- tice, faith in yourself and your team members, and a great coach like Mrs. Snider.” Throughout the course of the regu- lar season, the Ladyjackets played many tough and enjoyable games. It seemed almost ironic that Judy Weindel would find those two qual- ities in the same game. “To me, the most enjoyable game was when we played Helena away because, even though they were a better team, we played them a good game. I was proud to know we could compete against last year’s state champs.” Perfect follow-through is exhibited by Rita Stovall as she returns the ball. 84 Volleybal) Coach Joann Snider discusses strategy and gives the team a much needed rest during a time-out.

That loss came in the semi-finals of the Joe T. Robinson Tournament to White Hall. The Lady Jackets re- sumed their winning ways with an- other streak that lasted for five games. Again the loss was suffered in tour- nament play. The semi-final game in the Mid-Ark tournament was nip and tuck all the way to the end as a Searcy player won the game for her team on a half court shot with two seconds remaining.

However, a week be- fore the season started the Jackets went through a coaching change, leaving the Jackets with a whole new system to learn in one week. Con- sequently they opened the season on a sour note with a loss to the Searcy Lions. By Christmas break the Jackets had a record of 3-5, but coming off of a 64-47 win over arch-rival Forrest City, the Jackets had momentum going into the Mid Ark. Tournament. In their first action of the tourna- ment the Jackets defeated Beebe in a thrilling six overtime contest. The score was knotted at 36 all at the end of regulation and each team scored only two points apiece in the first overtime. With one team trying to outwit the other by letting the clock run down and settling for a last second shot, there was no scoring in the sec- ond extra period. Both teams con- tinued the same stalling tactics throughout the next four overtimes and traded baskets. At last junior Elax Tucker sank one of two free throws to win the game for the Jackets in the sixth overtime. The boys avenged an early season loss to Searcy in tournament play. Roy Stegall and Elax Tucker were chosen All Tournament players. David Dallas, one of only four seniors on the squad, stated, “When the sea- son began we had to overcome many new difficulties but with the coopera- tion of the coaches and the players, we have become a good basketball team and a very close-knit group.” Even though triple teamed. Dwan Wilson still finds a hole as he drives toward the bas- ket against the Searcy Lions.

Resurgence To The Top The Jackets began their conference season when school resumed after Christmas with a loss to the Osceola Seminoles. Following the defeat, the Jackets went on a seven game win- ning streak to win the Round Robin Championship witharecordof7-l. In game six of their conference winning streak the Jackets played Osceola again for the right to host the 3-AAA senior girls’ and boys’ tournament. The Yellowjackets played a nearly flawless game and defeated the Seminoles by a score of 51-39, earn- ing a bye to the finals of their district tournament.

First year head coach Jim Pen- nington commented, “This season has been the most pleasing of my coaching career because I got to work with some of the finest young men in Arkansas. We have come a long way since the beginning of the season. I give these young men the credit. It is because of these young men we were able to capture the 3-AAA Round Robin Championship. I’ve grown to love them all in a special way.” The Jackets were led in scoring by Elax Tucker. He was also one of the leading rebounders along with Daryl Scott and Craig Campbell. Other statistical leaders were Roy Stegall, Michael Jeffrey, and Dwan Wilson. 92 Senior Boys Basketball Junior guard Roy Stegall drives down the baseline to score against Brinkley. Senior Boys.

Senior Boys Basketball 93 Youthful And Exciting With no returning players, the Bees were slated to begin the season with an inexperienced squad. This inex- perience was vividly displayed in their opening contest against Rivercrest South as they dropped the game to the preseason conference favorite. However, after a two week layoff, the Bees regrouped and reeled off three consecutive victories before losing in the finals of the Rivercrest Junior Tournament to Earle and settling for a second place trophy. After the Christmas break, the Bees came back and won the Weiner Junior Tournament. Following the tournament championship. Coach Shempert offered these words. “To have a group of kids that have never competed against any one, other than themselves in intramurals, and they don't know what it takes to be a win- ner, I feel that the boys have done a good job in competing against teams that have had organized programs Surrounded by a host of opposing players. Dewayne Shepard attempts to launch a shot. since grade school.” The Bees stumbled through a four game conference stretch winning only one game before the Junior High Dis- trict tournament at Brinkley. But in the first round of the tournament the Bees beat Rivercrest North by a score of 43 to 40 to advance to the semi- finals against the hosting Brinkley Cubs. The Bees defeated the Cubs in a closely fought ball game, 46 to 43, as they moved into the finals of their respective bracket. Then they lost a dramatic game in the finals of the tournament to Marion and finished the season 3-AAA Junior Runners-up with a record of 10-7. The Bees were led in scoring and rebounding by Michael Willis. Others contributing heavily for the Bees were Lee Covington, Mickal Futch, Greg Scott, and Jerome Morris, who sum- med up the season with these com- ments. We got off to a slow start because of inexperience, but as the season progressed we began playing more as a team and then we started winning some ball games.” Concentration and form are essential for Michael Willis to sink this free throw.

The girls entered the Rivercrest Junior Tournament where they won two games before losing to Turrell in the finals and finishing as runners-up. The Queenbees finished the regular sea- son by winning seven of their last nine games. When asked about the season Coach Kimmie Glenn stated, “This season has been my most pleasurable one because of our ability to work to- gether on the court as well as off the court.” The Queenbees were seeded sec- ond in their District at the end of the regular season and received a bye to the semi-finals of their respective bracket. In the semi-finals the girls de- feated Brinkley advancing to the fi- nals.

Junior Girls BasektbaIl 97 Jackets win fourth consecutive district title The track teams had a successful season winding up with two district champions, a runner-up, a third place finisher, and an eventual state champ. Six school records were broken and one was tied. The Senior Boys 440 yard relay team consisting of Virgil Marshall, Kenny Oates. Dale Crawford, and Reggie Everette broke a five year old district record with a new time of 43.1. The same quartet tied the 880 yard relay record with a time 131.6. Kenny Oates set a new standard in the long jump with a leap of 22'7 3 4 , better- ing the old mark by nearly 4 inches. Lisa Hinton broke two Senior Girls records in the mile run and the 880 yard run. Her time in the mile was 5:32 and her new record in the 880 was 234.4. In Junior Boys competition the Bees 440 yard relay team of Dennis Warren, Scott Lyons, Tim Smiley, and Myron Richardson set a new time of 45.9 beating the old mark of 46.1. Dennis Warren beat the old mark 23.7 in the 220 yard dash with a new time of 23.6. All of these records were new 3-AAA district and Wynne High School records. Our State Championship came from the Senior Girls Mile Relay Team consisting of three freshmen, Robin White, Kathy Moore, Benita Jones, and one sophomore, Lisa Hin- ton. They ran in a record time of 4:12.3. In addition, this quartet went to the Meet of Champs in Hot Springs and finished in eighth place. The coaches were optimistic about next year. A combination of ability and determination help to propel Dwan Wilson over the bar in the high jump competition. With the rest of the pack far behind her.

They also won the event at the State track meet in Stuttgart. The next week they ran in the Meet of Champs in Hot Springs and finished in eighth place. Outstanding Performer! Kenny’s greatest moment came in the District track meet when he emerged with an astounding leap of 22' 7 3 4 to break the previous standard by nearly four inches.

INDIVIDUALLY At the sound of the tone, 928 people crowded the narrow halls. Talking, laugh- ing. and slamming lockers, these students brought life to an otherwise dreary hall. Without people, Wynne High School was just another lonely building. Students brought with them their unique personalities. From Daryl Scott’s height of 6 '6-1 2' to 4 '11 Ozell Lyons, Wynne stu- dents came in a variety of sizes, weights, and shapes. “One advantage of being short is that I still get in the movies for a child’s rate because everyone thinks I am younger than I really am,” stated Ozell Lyons. Styles in dress also varied — from Brad Perkins’ western look to Alex Young’s preppie clothes to the GQ style worn by Curtiss Pearson, Wynne always had students on top of the fashion. The background of each student was dif- ferent in every possible combination. Sev- eral people were foreigners to WHS, com- ing from Parkin or Cross County schools. Like Brad Gentle from Iowa and Vicki Jones from Oklahoma, others moved from dif- ferent states to become part of our school system. A few students even originally came from foreign countries, such as Hoang Bui from Vietnam. Religious faiths were also very diverse. While most students were Protestant, there were also many Catholics, such as the Hesses and Boeckmanns, as well as a few Jewish people. David Reagler said, “It is hard to be Jewish because the distance to travel for temple in Memphis every week takes so long.” No matter what the religion, height, or nationality, WHS students were individuals which made the group more in- teresting as a whole. Lazily resting by the science building, JoAnn Harper, Teri Burns, and John Young symbolize what makes WHS special — the various people. 102 People Division People Division 103 Togetherness Encouroges Understanding In 1970, the city officials and the school board took a big step by totally integrating the Wynne School System. The 1982 Senior Class was the first graduating class to have been integrated through all twelve years of school. Ms. Matthews, a teacher who taught that first year, recalls “there was some hostility. The black students had much taken away from them such as the school mascot, col- ors, and song when they came over to this school. The teachers were not as affected. They had to keep the hostility down and promote good feeling.” Most students would say that integration was profitable. Tonya Ruston felt that integra- tion led to “better understand- ing between blacks and whites which would help as one grew older and progressed in life.” A relieved smile and Class of 1982 shirt confirm that Eric Bailey is glad to be a senior.

Rather, she became involved in as many of the various school activities that she could find time for. She was Drum Major for four years, and in band for seven. The list of her other activities was long; FTA secretary, Beta Club, and FBLA reporter to name a few. Paulette spent countless hours in band rehearsals, as well as working after school on club work. She was chosen to attend Girls’ State during her junior year. The high point of Libby Diebold’s school life was being named Homecoming Queen by the football team. She was on the court for two years prior to receiving this honor. Libby was a delegate to Girls’ State, as well as a member of Key Club, Drama Club, and FTA. Student Council played an important role in Libby’s day. She was the treasurer during her junior year, and then became secretary her senior year. Other free time was spent practicing the piano for her job as accompanist to the Concert Choir and Pop Ensem- ble. Another dedicated pianist was Patti Hagaman. She ac- companied the Pop Ensemble from her tenth grade year to her senior year. Her skill at playing led to her participation in the Mid-South Talent Review, and in the school play “Oklahoma.’’ Her job as editor of the Stinger involved many hours of after school time spent checking lay- outs, typing copy, and other jobs which required her author- Clegg, Elaine.

Patti was a member of vari- ous clubs, such as Scholarship Club, Key Club, and Spanish Club, of which she was presi- dent her junior year. Patti was treasurer of FTA. Dramatic productions were fascinating to Tim Hess. “Bye, Bye, Birdie,” “Camelot,” and “Oklahoma” required a great deal of concentration on Tim’s part, as he held major roles in each production. Tim was also active in the choral program, participating in the Concert Choir, Barbershop Quartet and the Madrigals. He was an all re- gion performer. In addition to these, Tim was a member of such clubs as FTA, Spanish Club, and Spanish Honor Soci- ety. He was the president of the Drama Club, and received the Rayda Dillport Runner-Up Award for his work in “Ok- lahoma.” School spirit and pride was abundant in Cheryl Hunt. Her enthusiasm helped make pep rallies more exciting because one could always hear K.K. cheering. A member of the band for five years, Cheryl was also in the flag corps during her freshman year. Cheryl was very involved in the Student Coun- cil, serving as secretary for two years and president her senior year. Cheryl was a member of other clubs, such as Drama Club, FHA, FTA, Key Club, and Quill and Scroll.

An All-Region choir student, Dennis also qualified to try out for the All-State Choir, and was chosen as a member of it. Dennis represented WHS at the Arkansas Governor’s School in the choral depart- ment. His talent with music in- cluded playing the trombone, and Dennis earned a solo dur- ing marching season. His musi- cal skills were aided by private lessons which required a great deal of time and effort in Den- nis’ spare time. Band was a big part of Kelli Mulhollen’s activities, as she was a member for seven years. She was an all-region student and was on the flag corps for one year. Kelli was a member of the Beta Club, Scholarship Club, FTA. and others. She was also the president of FBLA for her senior year. Clarinet and voice practice were areas requir- ing a lot of Kelli’s spare time. For ' her academic achievements, Kelli was selected for the Arkan- sas Governor’s School for the Gifted and Talented, and spent five weeks at Conway during the summer of her junior year. Her position as president of the Future Teachers of America took up much of Rachel Reagler’s time. As a junior she served as both local and state vice-president of FTA.

Being quarterback for the Yellowjackets would be enough of a job for most people, but not Dwan Wilson. Sports required a great deal of Dwan’s time year round, because after football season came basketball and track. Dwan also managed to remain in the honors section of his class, as well as participate in school clubs like FTA, Drama Club, and FFA. During his junior year, Dwan was class vice president. He was a delegate to Boys' State, and was a board member of Key Club. During Dwan’s senior year, he was a member of the Concert Choir. Head Photographer of the yearbook staff meant Alex Young was very busy. He was responsible for taking pictures, developing the negatives, and enlarging photographs when necessary. In addition to this job, Alex was state Historian for FTA. He was involved in other clubs such as Scholarship Club, Spanish Honor Society, Span- ish Club, and Beta Club, of which he was president. Alex was the chairman for the Model UN team and participated on the winning history team, in which he placed first overall. Alex was also in band and Quill and Scroll. Outstanding seniors were chosen on the basis of their in- volvement in school activities. Each club, office, and extra- curricular function was given points and the points of each person were tallied to determine the most involved. Harris, Beverly. FHA. Harris, Renea.

It marked a day for many juniors and seniors to seriously consider what they wanted to do when they graduated. The juniors and seniors, along with their par- ents, were given the opportu- nity to visit with representatives from the schools and ask them questions about tuition, schol- arships, boarding fees, and facil- ities. The University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, Arkansas State Visitations by Joyce Riley, Howard Collins and Curtis Pearson to the ASU at Beebe table were helpful. University, and Southwestern University at Memphis were the most popular stations, each hav- ing more than 150 visitors. As students attended the sta- tions, they filled out information cards for the representatives. Representatives used the cards to see what areas the students were interested in and send them information and bro- chures in the mail. The bro- chures contained information on college majors, facilities, and scholarship programs. When asked how she felt about Col- lege Day, Judy Weindel com- mented, “It helped a lot, espe- cially receiving the brochures in the mail.’’ A representative from Delta Vo-Tech School seriously discusses Tim Grif- fen's future education.

However, to those two or three each year who do participate in this pro- gram, it is an enlightening ex- perience. It’s a chance for a boy who is interested in leadership positions to get a real look at what being a leader is all about. Boys State is a week during the summer during which over a thousand boys representing just about every high school in the state gather on a college cam- pus and learn what government is all about During the week, each person gets an opportunity to run for a city, county, or state office. Elections are held just like real life situations. Once in office the office holder gets a chance ot carry out his duties when all of the membrs of Boys State take over the state capitol for a day. The week is filled full of ses- sions on what it takes to be a leader, and how to be a success- ful leader. However, it’s not all work. The week is full of swim- ming, football, baseball, choir, band, and even leisure time. There is an opportunity to listen to prominent state officials and celebrities, but one of the great opportunities is that of meeting other guys of the same age who are the people who will some day be running the state of Ar- kansas. It is a chance to experi- ence success and failure; a chance to learn what being a citizen is all about and how to make sure that our government will always remain a democ- racy. Michael Weaver Serving as a delegate to Girls’ State last summer proved to be a great learning experience for me. Paulette, Libby, and I ar- rived June 6 nervously an- ticipating the week to come which would be spent with an unknown roommate and whole dorm full of new people. To our surprise, the other Girl Staters were just as ready as we were to become friends. We were each assigned to either the National or Federal Party. The Nationalists all wore blue visors, and the Federalists sported red visors. In years past, beenies were worn by Girls’ Staters, however we broke tra- dition by wearing visors. The expense of the beenies seemed to be the main reason for discontinuing their use but our counselors assured us that the only disadvantage of the visors was that we could no longer have “beenie buddies.” Our first city caucas in which we elected city officials met the same day of our arrival. That was only the beginning of a week full of nominations, con- ventions, and elections on the city, county, and state levels. Political figures such as Bill Clinton, Governor White and Hillary Rodham advised us on leadership and made each day interesting; however, Thursday spent at the capitol was the most exciting. Actually participating in the Senate was great fun and helped me with parliamentary procedure. Meeting new friends for the future was definitely the best part of Girls’ State.

As drum major, Paulette took over where Mr. Hall left off. She led the band onto the field, set the tempos, directed the show, and ordered the band off the field when the show was over. When the band was on the field, the pressure was on Paulette to make sure every- thing went right, which did not always happen. “One time at a marching contest at Little Rock, 1 forgot to call “horns up, Paulette remembers. Luckily, several people in the band, not- ably Kelli Mulhollen, called “horns up” before the judges or the spectators noticed the mis- take. Until her senior year, Paulette had soloed, but now Trent Clayton, the previous Junior Drum Major shared the position with her. “I like having two drum majors because I have someone to talk things over with,” commented Paulette, “and it also takes away a lot of the pressure.” How well the band per- formed greatly depended on the drum majors. Band Director Mr. James Hall praised Pau- lette, saying that the band’s suc- cess at contests was due in part to Paulette’s experience, cool head and clear thinking. Proof of this was the many trophies in the bandroom. Ruston, Tonya. Band, Rag Corps, Bas- ketball. Class Officer, FTA, History Team, Office Worker, Scholarship Club, Spanish Club.

Seniors 115 Those Holed Commercials Commercials have been the source of controversy since the invention of the television. Complaints of stupid, misguid- ing commercials are common. In a recent poll, students gave their opinions on which com- mercials should be removed from the air. “I dislike the Chic jeans commercial because they use the wrong pronunciation of the word chic.” Mrs. Joyce Brown “The Soft Pretty commer- cials because no one drags toilet paper across the street. Kelly Williams “I would take off the VO-5 commercial because it exploits sexuality in women.” Janet Tucker Raisins. Rice, Rye be- cause it tries to make cereal look sophisticated and it isn’t.”Mike Noel “The Hershey’s Kiss com- mercial because Cinderella has nothing to do with chocolate candy.” Judy Weindel “The Charmin commercial because no one I know squeezes toilet paper.” Bar- bara Smith “I think I would take off the Krystal commercial because if something from outer space eats their food, I don’t think 1 want to.” Jill Hess “I would like to see all the commercials dealing with indi- gestion taken off the air. They make me sick!” Mrs. Joann Snider “1 would take off the Wendy’s commercial because the gram- mar is a bad influence.” De- mitra Johnson Waits. Franklin. Basketball. Football.

Marcus Tickets Please “But officer, I really didn’t know I was going so fast. Can’t you just give me a warn- ing this time?’’ This line was a last desper- ate attempt by students to save themselves from wrath- ful parents, angered over a speeding ticket. Eric Stark, who was fined $85, offered the advice his dad gave him: “Don’t hunt after dark. . . it is too expensive!” Obviously, police tickets were one kind of ticket no one wanted. Some students had to con- tend with lunch tickets. In- stead of new tickets each week, tickets were issued at the first of the month. A per- son who lost his ticket had to literally pay the price,” be- cause a penalty of one week at regular meal prices was en- forced. “We are trying to teach responsibility for keep- ing the card and that is part of the reason for not re-issuing them,” commented Federal Co-Ordinator Gene Catter- ton. Other tickets were only used once. Prom admittances were required if a person took a guest who was out of school or an underclassmen. Kristi Reeves had a hard time be- cause “they tried to say we needed a ticket, but we were both in the junior or senior class.” Even administrators can make mistakes, it seems. Another ticket that was used once was a concert tick- et. After standing in line for long periods of time, excited students went to the concert, only to have the paper mer- cilessly torn apart by heartless ticket collectors. No matter what the price, tickets were worth a lot more than the paper they were printed on. Officer Rudy Collins writes a ticket for guilty culprit Andy Boone, who was caught speeding on Highway 64, enroute to school. Andrews, Timothy Ashley, Roger Bailey, Barry Ball, Eric Ball.

The fire marshal’s duties during drills included time evaluation from buildings to the designated safety points, making sure all doors were closed and teachers were calling roll and then writing a report to turn in to fire marshal sponsor Mr. Hugh Hill. Fire marshals were chosen on merit, dependability, character, and responsibility. They were required to attend state meet- ings and received training from their sponsors. Mr. Hills explained the new signs showing exit routes; “We put up new signs every year be- cause they were destroyed and lost. Most teachers didn’t know where to go and neither did substitutes.’’ Mr. Hill com- mented on the idea of blocking off doors and holding people back, “This idea was given to sponsors at state meetings for more real drills.” The marshals average at least one drill a month. Mr. Smith was pleased with the fire marshals and thought the drills were better and more detailed. He also believed that teachers and students involve- ment was important. After all it was a matter of life and death. Hardiman, Annette Harper. Joanna Harris, Len Harris. Lonnie Harris. Sharon Headley. Jenny Hendrix. Wade Henson. Lori Hess. Jill Hess. Keith Hess.

David On A Class A Act While others competed in sports events, history and math contests, or band try-outs, Joann Harper and JoLynn Davis competed in twirling con- tests. Not many people were aware that there were two state title holders at our school. Joann and JoLynn both com- peted in the Miss Majorette of Arkansas Pageant and state championships at Marianna last April. JoLynn was awarded the title Junior Miss Majorette and Joann received the title of Miss Majorette. JoLynn then placed ninth runner-up in the national contest held at Notre Dame University. The thrill of victory at contests came only after years of hard practice. JoLynn has taken les- sons for seven years and Joann for ten. Both girls started as stu- dents for Deena Kinman Carter and are now taking lessons from Nancy Mitchell of Tennessee. About two years ago, Joann began entering contests on an individual level. “I like to com- pete at contests because I see a lot of my friends there and 1 enjoy the satisfaction of doing well,” commented Joann. Going to about four contests a year, she has won over seventy-five trophies and med- als, plus numerous ribbons over a two year period. JoLynn has been competing in contests for about six years, usually attending six contests each year. She has won over four hundred fifty trophies, medals and ribbons. At these contests which were held all over Arkansas, Tennes- see, Mississippi, and Missouri, they entered several divisions such as basic strutt, pageant, solo, military, fancy-T, parade majorette, and modeling. JoLynn and Joann have both won several other special rec- ognitions as well. JoLynn was listed in “Who’s Who in Baton Twirling” the last four years and was head majorette at Cross County High School before moving to Wynne. She was also Junior Miss Majorette of Mid- America for 1980. Joann was crowned Miss Harvest Queen Majorette at a Memphis contest, won the twirl-off at the Mid- South Fair in September, and has twirled in the Wynne band for four years. Although she loves twirling, JoLynn Davis puts basketball first. Fender. Sonny Phillips. Bobbie Phillips, Dale Pierce, Debbie Kay Pierce, Debbie Sue Pierce. Vicki Poindexter.

Steve Small Change The past year has marked many changes in Wynne. A new shopping center was under con- struction on Falls Boulevard, pants were changed from straight legs to knickers, and popular music went from Love me Tender” to “Love Stinks.” Yet some things still remained the same. Buildings downtown such as the Progressive Club and the Imperial Theatre had been around longer than most people could remember. Although the schools had some minor repairs and a few new buildings, like the library and the new gym, they basically appeared as they were ten years earlier. The changes that did occur on campus were subtle. An ad- dition of 820 American History and Government books re- placed the old books costing the school $11,275. In addition to the nine new faculty members, new materials such as typewrit- ers and a new memograph machine helped improve the business classes. In the Spanish program, an independent study program was started for two third year students. Perhaps the statement, “Some things never change,” was really true. Or maybe we just have not noticed. Dedicated smokers find the new loca- tion of the smoking area inconven- ient. but others appreciate it. Stallings, Nancy Stegall, Dedra Stegall. Jerry Stegall, Roy Stone.

Fast foods cut cooking time, groceries were carried to the car and hours of mathematical work could be done in seconds on a calculator. Laziness was rampant. Yet all individuality was not lost. There were still places where one could serve himself. For example, to save a little money many people pumped their own gas at John Miller Food Mart or at the Gulf Station downtown. The Pizza Hut salad bar was another place you could serve yourself according to your own taste. “Eggs, cheese, tomatoes, and Italian dressing are some of the things I put on my salad,” stated Mrs. Rosalyn Chandler. Even in our cafeteria the students got to se- lect from two different lunch lines. Other food places in Wynne such as the Country Club and the Kountry Kitchen gave people a buffet from which they could choose their meal. As Barbara Smith stated, “Serv- ing yourself is not a bad idea, especially when saving money is concerned.” Higher gas prices compel Junior Ragle to serve himself in order to save a little extra money. Pizza Hut is a good place for Paula Miller to fix a delicious salad ac- cording to her own taste. Benton. Kelly Birkhead, Sidney Blaylock. Brian Blaylock, David Boyd, Wesley Bratcher.

Jody Raley stated, “I took les- sons to improve my cheerlead- ing routines.” Practicing at Gymnastics Un- limited in Jonesboro four to six days a week, Rina House was able to win 44 ribbons, 13 trophies, and eleven medals for her unevens, vaulting, and the floor exercises. She was named the Class 3 State Champion in the compulsories. In her spare time, Rina taught gymnastics to five students ages five to nine. When asked what drove her to work so hard she replied, “I wanted to try to ob- tain the grace and beauty I saw in the 1976 Olympics.” Hinton, Robert Hogan, Chris Hollaway, Buddy Hoots. Duane House.

Anyone could take part in it by filling out a paper with their three favorite songs. “Music makes you want to party and have a good time,” commented Tammy Butler. Some people like Kimber Pat- rick thought music was revert- ing; “I think music is slowly going back to the style of the ’50’s” Opinions about the best type of music varied. Ginger Mc- knight liked rock-n-roll but Roger Ashley was more inclined to country. Styles ranged from punk rock, to classical, to pop, to bluegrass, to swing, to blues.

Still More American Graffiti Scribbles are a common sight on Tracy Wolford's notebooks. By examining a person’s doodlings, one found out the person’s true feelings about his teacher, the name of a current girlfriend, boyfriend, or hopeful; what radio station he listened to; a favorite saying, or his best- liked cartoon character. For some people such as Thad Nauddin and Richard Clark, doodling was just a con- stant habit. Thad said that he doodled any time, without really thinking about it. “It keeps me from falling asleep or going totally insane from boredom,” commented Richard Clark. “Sometimes I doodle to take notes, for exam- ple, I’ve drawn Zonker reciting Hamlet.

Rhonda Peel Yourself A Winner First, there were Calvin Klein, Chic, and Levi’s jeans. Next, there were Trans-Ams, Z-28’s, and Corvettes. The latest fad to sweep the country (or Wynne) was bottle cap collecting. Dr. Pepper, Pepsi, and the Coca-Cola Companies were re- sponsible for this fad. Dr. Pep- per awarded $500 for the letters spelling “Be A Pepper.” With Pepsi Spirit” caps, Pepsi lovers won $500 also. “Coke, the Real Thing” was the $500 phrase for Coke lovers. There were black and white televisions, radios, and bicycles as well as instant cash to be won. For an extra challenge, Pepsi manufactured a cap that said “Double Any Winner.” This cap was good for any prize in the Pepsi cap game. The cap that was most often found was that terrible cap that said ‘ ‘Sorry, no winner this time. Try again.” After battling with those difficult liners for five min- utes, it was very frustrating to see that the reward was no re- ward at all! ‘I was glad to win a quarter or even a dime once in a while. Even a dime is better than that stupid “Try Again” cap,' remarked Sheila Boeckmann. Everybody had a chance to win. If someone hadn’t thrown that one cap down, that person could have won the $1000 that Wynne’s own Rocky Robinson won by simply picking the cap up off the floor near a vending machine. Some people have all the luck! Crockett, Michelle Cunningham, Gwen Curbo, Audie Darnell, Tony Davis, Dan Davis, Jo Lynn Davis, Patricia Freshmen 135 DeWitt. Laura DeWitt, Mary DeWitt, Tammy DeWitt.

Besides the large quantity of reference books, the library offered a variety of writ- ings on travel, history, technol- ogy, biography, and fiction. Mrs. Anita Thwing assisted in finding the needed references and using library facilities effi- ciently. Mrs. Thwing was aided in the library by the student li- brary workers and Mrs. Betty Gregory. Mrs. Gregory had been working with Mrs. Thwing in the media center for two and one half years. Debbie Sue Pierce, a student library worker commented, “Working in the library gives me more opportu- nities to use the available re- sources.” The biggest problem was overdue books. They became such a problem that students were being sent to detention hall for each day a book was overdue. “Detention hall has not really cut down on the number of overdue books yet; although it does get the books back in,” admitted Mrs. Thwing. Study hall students used the library as an escape from doing their homework. Students could go into the media center to read magazines and news- papers, as well as find interest- ing books to check out. “I enjoy keeping up on what is going on around the country,” com- mented Delores Taylor, who en- joys reading “People” maga- zine during her study hall. Whether it was used for read- ing the comics for fun or work- ing on a term paper, the library was a busy place for diversion or for studying. 136 Freshmen Glover, Danny Gordon. Michele Gray.

Ozell A Penny Earned Oh, I forgot to tell you but we have triplets! “By the way did I mention that my sisters five kids will also be here? I hope you don’t mind. These situations were some of the surprises that parents just happened to mention at the last minute. Children could drive you crazy with their refusal to eat, their stubborn reluctance to go to bed, their constant crying or fighting, or if it was a really bad night their insistance on playing game after game. “The first time I babysat was the worst, the child tried to run outside to play on the train tracks, I was afraid he would run out and get hurt on the tracks, recalled Rachel Reagler. But babysitting was not all bad, it gave students a chance to earn extra money at the going rate of $1.50 an hour. According to Tina Taylor, Besides giving me extra spend- ing money it also provides me with the experience I may need later on in life. Babysitting was a good way to earn money, learn a sense of responsibility, and become a little indepen- dent. One responsibility Cathy Isreal enjoys is caring for sister Casey.

A group of us are going out to the Pizza Hut after school. Do you want to go with us?” “Oh, I wish I could but I’ve got to go to detention hall for the next three days.” A new change in the disci- pline policy meant that many students had to give up their free time in the afternoon and spend it in the detention study hall. Tardiness, gum chewing, an overdue library book, or a minor disruption in class re- sulted in the offender being sent to detention hall. Every Tuesday, Wednes- day, and Thursday, Mr. Wes Shaver supervised the twenty- five to thirty students in the class. The forty minute period had to be used for studying. Talking resulted in more days being added to the sentence. “I think that detention hall has been a successful altema- ive to suspension and a de- terrent to gum chewing and tardiness,” stated Mr. Bill Diederich. “1 wish we didn’t have to use detention hall at all. 1 wish the students were ma- ture enough to come to school and follow the rules.” The decision to continue de- tention hall next year has al- ready been made. Mr. Diederich said he felt that it was a good plan because it gave the students time to think about why they were in there. With the arrival of detention hall, suspension was used only as a last resort.

Clubs, homecoming court, football; all of these were common activities for teachers. When asked about the various groups involved in, many shared facets of former school life were discovered. For instance, both Mrs. Martha Matthews and Mrs. George Anne Draper had the honor of being elected home- coming queen. Mrs. Draper commented, “Trying to get in a car with a wire hoop under my dress was the most frustrating part of being queen.” Some teachers involved themselves in dramatic produc- tions. Naturally, Mr. Randy Yamold was interested, as well Interest in theatre led to a commit- ment as a drama and speech teacher for Randy Yamold. as Mr. Paul Nichols, Mrs. Geor- gia Ross, Mr. Hugh Hill, and Mr. Elbert Person. Others found that publications interested them. Ms. Sandy Reynolds was the editor of her high school yearbook, along with Mrs. Janet Shropshire, Mrs. Julia Dodd, and Mrs. Georgia Ross. Still other teachers became physical fitness advocates. Mrs. Brooks Fiscus, Mrs. Sharon Braswell, and Mrs. Carrey Reynolds cheered their football teams on, while Mr. Randy Yar- nold lettered in that sport. Mrs. Reynolds commented, “I loved being a cheerleader! At that time it was probably one of the most important things in my life.” Fiscus, Brooks. Family Living. Glenn, Kimmie.

Excuses, Excuses! Students were experts when it came to thinking of an excuse for being tardy or not having home- work. More thought seemed to be applied to the reason for not having the work than time spent doing it Several teachers com- mented on the most common or their favorite excuse, and these were the results: “The lights went out in my house, and I couldn’t see to do my lessons. ’' Mrs. JoAnn Snider “I did it. . . 1 swear it did! 1 put it right here and now it’s gone!” Mrs. Sharon Braswell “My dog (or brother or cat or anything else) ate it!” Coach Kimmie Glenn “One of my students told me that he burned his homework over the holidays to keep warm.” Mrs. Joyce Brown “1 left mine in the deer stands!” Mr. Hugh Hill “An elephant ran through my house and trampled my homework.” Mrs. Georgia Ross I left it in a friend’s car last night” Mrs. Carrey Reynolds “It must have been stolen b someone who needed it.” Ms Martha Matthews 144 Faculty Shropshire.

Papers and books blowing off the car hood is Samantha Hess’s excuse for being tardy to first period. Humorous excuses brighten Mrs. Sharon Braswell’s grading times. Faculty 145 Keeping It Going According to Mr. Darrell Smith, “Keeping myself aware of what is taking place in all areas of the school and being in attendance when the certain areas are functioning was the hardest part of being principal.” Since there are so many ac- tivities at any given time, not only was it a great task for Mr. Smith, but also for Assistant Principal Bill Diederich. Both men tried to maintain good dis- cipline in the school so that teachers could teach and stu- dents could learn. While Mr. Smith and Mr. Diederich were responsible for the smooth operation of the high school, the efficient run- While taking a break from his duties, Mr. Smith rests and drinks a Coke in the faculty lounge. ning of the entire school system was the ultimate responsibility of Mr. Leon Wigginton. Gov- ernment programs and the fi- nancial planning of the school were important concerns of Mr. Wigginton. These problems were not his alone though. Five men in the community spent a minimum of Wednesday night attending to school business. Mr. Bedford Tuberville stated, “that the main reason for him being on the school board is because of having an interest in the young people in the school district” When asked about the ac- complishments of the board he stated, “I am proudest of the building programs which in- cludes the new gymnasium and library.” Caught again! Kelli Mulhollen is rep- rimanded by Mr. Diederich for gum and sent to Detention Hall. Work at the First National Bank is another one of school board member Ronnie Cox’s daily jobs. 146 Ad min istration School board member Mr. Bedford Tuberville escorts his daughter Mitzi, as a homecoming maid. Long-distance phone calls take up a great deal of Federal Co-ordinator Gene Cat- terton’s time. Superintendent Leon Wigginton looks over some important papers which re- quire his signature. Administration 147 Money must be counted each day and rolled by Mrs. Tommye Curtner. Control of the copy machine adds to the superintendent’s secretary Bonnie Carwiles’s already busy day. College decisions are serious business for Paulette Heard, bi t Mr. Baugus counsels with her. 148 Secretaries and Counselors Dusy! Dusy! Busy! Being able to help a young person work out a difficult problem” was the most re- warding part of being a coun- selor to Mrs. Regina McGill. However, counseling stu- dents was only a small part of the job. Four weeks in the summer were spent schedul- ing students. Then when the school year began, the new task of explaining last spring’s SRA tests to every student through the English classes devoured much of the counselor’s time. Other visits to classrooms involved explaining credits for gradua- tion and giving job and col- lege information to the stu- dents. Though planning sched- ules was the counselor’s re- sponsibility, the burden of typing and mailing each schedule fell on the sec- retaries. Mrs. Tommye Curt- ner and Mrs. Linda Hesse spent a large part of the summer typing schedules and posting end of the year grades. Mrs. Sharon Forres- ter aided with these jobs in the summer, but was kept busiest during the year, “locating students and call- ing them to the office for Mr. Diederich, answering the phone, checking the absen- tees, and writing letters to parents pertaining to the at- tendance policy.” Mrs. Bon- nie Carwile, secretary in the administration office, spent her time differently. At the first of the month and the end of the month, she was busy with the high school books. The second week of the month she prepared for school board meetings. Other time was spent dis- pensing supplies and general office work. When sickness was a prob- lem the case was turned over to the school nurse, Mrs. Carolyn McKnight. Mrs. McKnight worked at the school until 11:25 treating minor illnesses such as sore throats, stomach aches, and headaches. To lend a helping hand, students volunteered to work in the office during their free period. As an office worker, Alfredia Hicks replied that the thing she does most is run errands. All of these people contributed to the balance and smooth running of the school system. Absentees are collected every period by Mr. Diedrich's office workers such as Adrian Stegall.

After school hours, Mrs. Ahart’s room is swept by Mr. John Green. 150 Cafeteria and Maintenance Where Credit Is Due Bound to a twelve month contract were the custodians who cleaned up after students every day. The six custodians worked in the summer from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. They spent their time each day clean- ing the 150 rooms on campus. Not only did they clean, they had other tasks as well, such as helping with the lawn and sort- ing out groceries. Mr. Rodell Cummings stated that an en- joyable part of having been a custodian was working with students and faculty and learn- ing about people. Ten ladies cooked lunch every day. Six of the ladies began work at 7:30 a.m. and four came to work at 9:30 a.m. They all completed work at 2:00 p.m. The cafeteria workers fixed a meal of two choices to feed approximately 650 students a day. Out of all the different meals served, the largest crowds seemed to be drawn to spaghetti, fried chicken, and pizza. Mrs. Mary Wilkinson, the cafeteria supervisor stated, The hardest parts of balancing and planning the meals are fol- lowing the government regula- tions and preparing pleasing meals for the students.” Responsible for keeping ev- erything operating were the six maintenance men. They worked in the summer from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and dur- ing the school year from 6:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. These men did minor repairs like changing light bulbs, fixing door knobs, and fixing broken windows. All three groups work mainly behind the scenes. Though they were not always seen or acknowledged for their work, without them buses would not have run smoothly, meals would not have been prepared, and clean rooms would not have been ready for classes each day. Credit for clean trash cans goes to custodian Julius Watson. After the students have been served their lunches, these cafeteria workers enjoy their meals. Cafeteria and Maintenance 151 Our Wynne-ing Ways . . . AROUND TOWN Yearbook staff, paper staff — every time a business owner turned around, there was another student selling an advertisement. Although the types of ads and the method of selling differed, their owners never failed to respond, usually in a positive way. During the summer, Stinger staff mem- bers received a list of people to contact. Armed with contracts, these students set out, prepared to charm the money right out of the business managers’ and owners’ pockets. Prices ranged from $80 for a full page to $ 10 for a patron listing. Despite the fact that “selling ads is probably the hardest part of making the yearbook because it is so time-consuming,” (said business manager Janet Kernodle), $3,280 was raised. After the ads were sold, they were divided among the staff members, who were responsible for designing the ad and the lay-out for that page. The Yellowjacket staff earned $320 by selling advertisements. Each ad cost $12, and appeared in the paper three times. Lori McClain was the ad co-ordinator, in charge of arranging the pages and designing the ads. “We balance them out so that no two stores of the same type, such as clothing stores, appear on the same page,” stated Donna Baker, the Yellowjacket business manager. More money was made this year by selling school pennants than by ad sales. These pennants were blue and gold, and supported the Yellowjacket football team. “This year may be the first year that the paper staff comes out ahead, instead of in the hole like we usually wind up,” com- mented sponsor Mary Bob Brawner. Community youth show support of the Yellow- jackets by braving the cold weather. 152 Ad Division edjuin houston Ladies’ Shop Bridal Gallery Men’s Shop Gift Box Young America 633-5100 5105 P.O.

Index 189 OUR WYNNE-ING WAYS “Wynne, The City with a Smile.” So the signs on the boundaries of our town of 7,805 proclaim. The proof, however, was near the middle of town where Wynne High School sat. one block off Highway 1. Upon entering the doors, it seemed like any other school. Yet inside, the friendly atmosphere of a small town prevailed. Stu- dents at Wynne High School knew a ma- jority of their fellow classmates, a fact prov- en by the North Central studies which showed 89% of the senior class had at- tended Wynne schools for at least four years. This friendly atmosphere was evident in many ways. Teachers and students felt free to talk to one another between classes, as well as jokingly exchanging stories during free class time. “Cracking jokes keeps the learning atmosphere in perspective. It also allows the student to know learning is a Neat shelves and a pleasant atmosphere are qual- ities that Steve Seabaugh finds necessary while waiting on customers at Van-Atkins. Winner of two preliminary competitions, Patti Hagaman receives her certificates at the Junior Miss contest in Pine Bluff. partnership between a student and a teach- er,” commented Mr. Randy Yarnold. Stu- dents, teachers, secretaries, and everyone else involved made WHS a sociable place to be. In addition to a companionable environ- ment, students showed a feeling of pride in their school. The main building, completed in 1950, required additions as the years passed. Building II, first used in 1959, be- came the English department building in 1980. The final touches to our school came when the new gymnasium and classrooms were built. Many agreed with Brent Stone, who said, “The new gym is one of the nicest in the state. It improves the looks and status of the whole school.” The pride in our school, combined with a friendly atmos- phere and a smiling city, reflected “Our Wynne-ing Ways.” M 190 Closing Festival ’81 provides a perfect opportunity for government administrator Gene Catterton to double as a Kiwanis Club cook. Even though the building is thirty-two years old. it still retains a look of dignity and life as it did when it was first constructed.
