CONFIDENTIALLY WE’RE ON A SECRET MISSION ... and It’s Confidential! This year the yearbook staff decided to snoop into all the wonderful secrets of Alleghany High School and pro- duce the best year- book ever! We opened our case by secretly meeting in the summer to decide upon a theme. “It’s Confidential” was chosen. With the help of JoAnn Thomas from Hunter Publish- ing, the layout for the first thirty-two pages was drawn up. Having met the first deadline, the case photographs were then taken by Mr. Ardan Lackey. The rest of our case, the yearbook, was laid out, copy was written, and best of all, WE ACCOMPLISHED OUR MISSION! CASE CLOSED!!! Business managers, Janie Cook and Melissa Crouse, count and recount receipt totals. Being senior editors is an enjoyable part of the Journalism class, relates Wendy Miller and Dawn Jarrett. Opening — 3 A BREAK IN THE ROUTINE The lobby is a popular place to be during break. It provides a place for students to be seen and to see each other Danny Rash fulfill a corsage on The life of a student is centered around his school and its activi- ties. Many spend hours watching football games, playing in the band, and participating in a variety of organizations. “The activities have given me a sense of confidence and responsibility,” said one member of the senior class. Continual studying does not make a well-rounded person, and colleges look for individuals who enjoy a variety of projects. AHS provides this through sports, clubs, and various other activities. Mayfest held during the spring of each year is an example of the ex- pression of school spirit. Other ideas throughout the year are suggested by students and teachers. These are submitted to a new committee designed to en- sure that students enjoy their time at school. Our school has helped to make these young adults the kind of individuals that a community would be proud to call their leaders. All of the school activities promote and enrich students’ lives from freshmen to seniors. Student Life — 5 SECRET LIVES “All students are dis- missed!” As these familiar words echo through the halls, 550 students are free to ven- ture on their separate ways. We find that many students are indepen- dently working toward their futures with part- time jobs. Others parti- cipate in school activi- ties and sports. As the school week comes to a close, students’ spirits rise as they scheme for an ex- Mudsllngs have become popular Alleghany pastimes (above). Jerry Barnes and Laurlnda Bedsaul head out on a date (right). 6 — Secret Lives citing weekend. At 3:00 on Friday afternoon, this weekend finally begins! “Where will I take my date tonight?” These words go through many guys’ minds. Whereas, “What am I going to wear?” frequently drifts in and out of a girl’s mind. The “big town of Sparta” is now lit up with students cruising main street! However, many of us want a change of pace and de- cide to wander out of Sparta. We have other enjoy- able activities on the weekends besides “hanging out.” We visit relatives, go shopping, go to church, work at home and at weekend jobs, and we can never forget the “homework.” Everyone has his own thing to do during the week and on the week- end. Enjoy these high school days because “they are the best years of your life!” Saturday night finds Sherrill Bottomley at the races (below). lr f m !

NOT-SO-SECRET LOVERS Peek around the corners at Alleghany and students will be seen expressing one of the most important and popular pastimes. (Do you get the picture?) The subtle winks and sly glances are rarely noticed by anyone ex- cept the special person to whom they are inten- ded. These people, for now, share their lives as one. Yet does the future hold the same promise? LeAnn Gentry and Randy Andrews have been dating each other since the sixth grade (above). A few quiet moments after school permit this couple to spend some time together before a long after- noon of activities begin (right). 8 — Not-So-Secret Lovers A few private moments are shared by Karen Joines and Steven Shupe at the Military Ball. Not-So-oeoret Love ‘We’ve really enjoyed working together during the past year, said Mrs. Burr Bost about her husband. Rod. This popular couple finds that being at the same school gives them a chance to spend a few spare mo- ments together. IN’ STYXiE AT AHS Taking a look into the fashion craze, we can see many other fashions such as the punk, the prep, the casual or “laid back” look, and the so called, “beach bum” craze. The variety of styles illustrates each student’s own person- ality and imagina- tion. Each style adds its own little spice or swing into our every- day life. JAMS, REEBOK SWATCH, GASOLINE ESPRIT, FORENZA SUNSET BLUES GUESS ... Walking through the halls at Alleghany High School, we can see the styles and varieties of our students. Who’s to say what’s in or what’s out? However, one senior expressed her dislike of polka dots. AHS Styles Run From Punk To Preppy A wide variety of clothing styles can be seen at AHS, as shown by Beth Templeton, Tina Greer, John Finney, and Susan Robertson (above).

The festivities began with people dressed as cowboys and cowgirls, complete with guns, hats, and boots. Mr. Mangialetti “strutted” away with the prize for best costume. Tuesday found us with “Beach Bum Day.” Everyone came in his or her brightest, coolest clothes and shades. The “Beach Bummiest” was Melissa Reeves. Wednesday was designated as Crazy Day. Michelle Miller walked away with the prize for “craziest.” Thursday brought back “Happy Days” with bobby socks and poodle skirts. Miss Johnson won the prize for best costume. Friday was Green and Gold Day, the day everyone was waiting for. Rick Crouse won the prize for this day with his painted face. The day ended with an assembly. Scott Pruitt, with his great legs, was awarded Mr. Trojan. Tim Anders and his big mouth won the Marshmallow Stuffing Contest. An outstanding, fun- filled week came to a perfect end with the Trojans defeating North Stokes and Paula Smith being named Homecoming queen.

Class- rooms were built in the old library area, and a new library was built on the west end of the school. The library opened its doors the second six weeks of school. There was a different tobacco policy — no dipping, chewing, or smoking. The park- ing lot was rede- signed to accom- modate the growing number of student drivers. Throughout this transition period, both students and teachers kept smiles on their faces and open minds to these changes. mu I own ft M4b 4 trofttpurtoflufi nd b« bl« ftj w ffc a Htiibli schafvto which will includi fttrly ftiormnj Naurs, IcH wtfilng hours md Utvrdayi Salary plus car tvpohftos. ftafla- fits art food H you or Ifttoroif 94, plooft apply la parson fo: Ptnonnp!

Because of the lack of space, a new library was added on this year. The old library was divided into five classrooms. This new classroom has helped to ease the crowded con- ditions at Alleghany. Mr. Jeff Parsons, a former AHS graduate, took over as band director for the Little Mighty Trojan band in August. 14 0« 1 Cpse Changes h 1 ec? - Mr. Mangialetti, our new agricul- ture teacher, states, “I think the school as a whole is a fine place to work.

We, the class of 1987, frequently ask ourselves numerous ques- tions. First of all, “Who am I, any- way?” We are at the point in our lives where we are attempting to “find ourselves.” No one actually knows who he she is until he she experiences a touch of what the real world is like. Secondly, “What am I doing here?” I’m sure the entire senior class asked this question even though we all know the answer, which is education, of course. Thirdly, “Where am I going?” There are several possible solutions to this trying question, one of which is college. Another opportunity would he joining the wonderful world of business. Of course, one could just “bum around” for a while. Last, but not least, “How do we get out of here?!?” This is probably the most popular question of all. The thrilling response to this in- quiry is GRADUATION!! We anxiously anticipate that golden day when we will triumphantly march down the aisle in our flow- ing gowns and dangling tassels and graciously accept the coveted diploma.

What used to be the cruising town sounds of rock and roll are now becoming more and more varied. Favorite musicians range from Spyro Gyra to the Fat Boys, from Hank Williams, Jr. to Motley Crue, and from the Beatles to Vivaldi. As always, most students say that listening to good “ole” rock music is probably the most popular way to pass the time. How- ever, even it is begin- ning to change with the times. Many of today’s teens are grow- ing into 60’s and 70’s rock. The Beatles, the Eagles, Chicago, and even the Beach Boys are back in ’86! Still today’s modern rock is the thing. ZZ Top and Bryan Adams are in, as well as Tina Turner’s hair! Alabama and Hank Jr. are secretly begin- ning to make their move on today’s teens with a “rock-a-billy” sound. Other impacts include jazz music and our own two groups, Heaven Sent and Eastern Thunder. So tune up to the secret sounds of the city.

These two words have brought cringes to a number of students’ faces.However, some local students have sacrificed their summers to participate in highly acclaimed schools. The Governor’s School of North Carolina and Summer Ventures in Science and Mathe- matics have taken several students from AHS and raised their levels of awareness in the area in which they excel. These areas in- clude music, natural and social science, art, mathematics, French, A high average enabled Angie Carico to enroll in Summer Ven- tures at ASU. and Spanish. “Summer Ventures gave me insights into people that I never had before,” stated senior Angie Carico. It was the consensus of the group that the two schools were an educational and an emotional maturing experience. “The atmosphere was that of a college campus,” commented senior Mary Alice Sturgill. All in all, the two programs were an ex- citing way for a few lucky Trojans to spend a summer vacation. “I guess the best part about it was the people.” added Karen Richardson. Seniors — 23 WILL WE MISS IT? A number of seniors were asked “What are you going to miss the most about AHS when you graduate?” Here are their responses. Mike Crouse: “Sleeping the first hour in auto mechanics, playing football and wrestling.” David Church: “I’ll miss Mrs. Burgiss! I won’t have any teacher to pick on anymore!” Mitch Cleary: “I’ll miss my girlfriend!” Donna Crouse: “My friends, some of the teachers, being able to walk down the hall as a SENIOR and not worry- ing about someone else pushing me out of the way.” David McCall: “Women, sports, and English class!” Alex Hoppers: “Har- rassing Mrs. Mc- Millan in English!” Michelle Miller: “Going downtown during T A.” Randy Hawkins: “Noth- ing!” Jimmy Tayson: “Chas- ing the girls.” Cindy Brinegar: “I’m going to miss the teachers.” Grady Caudill: “Driving the bus.” Tammy Lineberry: “The people!” Jim Wyatt: “Working out in the Ag. shop.” Mark Andrews: “I’m not going to miss a thing.” Roxanne Moxley: “Some of the teachers and my friends.” Tami Osborne: “Miss my friends.” Hanging around school with their friends will be missed by many seniors.

On this A, metals and awards, earned by the in- dividual are worn. The green and gold jacket can be seen on many alumni at many athletic events in the years to come.

Seniors — 31 THE END’S IN SIGHT FOR THE CLASS OF 1987 OUR FINAL DAYS “We now pronounce you graduates of Alle- ghany High School.” These are the words every senior anxiously awaits. This day brings smiles as well as tears to parents and the grad- uates. This moment will always be a special memory to those who take part in the cere- mony. As Kim Poole, an upcoming graduate sta- ted, “Although I’m new here, I will regret departing from Alle- ghany High School, but I’m looking forward to greeting the new world outside.” With this kind of attitude, there seems to be nothing but good things to come for this year’s senior class. The feeling of gradu- ation becomes appar- ent when beach reser- vations are made, in- vitations are ordered, cap and gowns arrive, A-jackets are received, and graduation prac- tice begins. Then as the weeks speed by, seniors begin counting down their final days at Alleghany High School. As Mr. Rector, our new principal said con- cerning his first gradu- ating class, “This group has given better cooper- ation than any other class in my four and a half years at Alleghany High School.” After thirteen years of waiting, the day is finally near.

All Trojan teams have been in contention for the conference titles, and several have attained the special honor of being the best of the best, the con- ference champions. Alleghany High School is a likely winner of the Blue Ridge Cup, the award given for the Blue Ridge LA. school with the best overall athletic program. Dedication, determination, and cooperation have been the keys to the success in the sports area. Whether driving for a layup or striving for a pin, our athletes are constantly pressing for perfec- tion. However, integrity on and off the field of play has been first and foremost in the minds of the players and coaches. “We want to develop the potential of the athlete on the field and in the classroom,” said one Alleghany coach. Trojan successes have been many and losses few. This en- deavor is always there and always will be for the student athletes of Alleghany High School.

Trojans Keep On Fighting and Make It To THE STATE PLAYOFFS November 14, a night marked with sleet and rain, brought the end to the 1986 varsity foot- ball season. However, the team left the field knowing that they had worked together and had never given up. The squad finished with a 6-5 record and the chance to travel to Murphy for the first round of 1-A state play- offs. Football is a special and respected sport at Alleghany. Under the coaching of Tom Smith, Sid Miller, and Mike Caudill, the players worked extremely hard. The first practice fell on August 1, which was Planning for their next dynamic play, the Trojan offense plots their strategy (left). just the beginning of weeks of conditioning and drills to get in shape. After four weeks of strenuous conditioning, the Trojans entered their regular season. The invitation to the playoffs came after a win over Elkin High School on Halloween night. Even though the team lost in the first round, the coaches were still pleased with the team’s overall performance. Coach Tom Smith remarked, “Taking all things into considera- tion, it was a great year for the varsity Trojan football team. We were picked to finish fourth in the conference through a pre-season coaches poll; we fin- ished second. This can only be attributed to a lot of hard work and ded- ication by our outstand- ing athletes. It’s been a true pleasure and honor to have worked with them this year.” Five members of the team were picked for All-Conference honors: David McCall, Mike Ed- wards, Rick Crouse, Jerry Maines, and Dar- ren Gilbert. Honorable mention honors went to Billy Blevins, Jimmy Hash, Scott Pruitt, Greg Andrews, and Mark An- drews. In addition, David McCall was honored as the Blue Ridge Player of the Year.

Five Alleghany ladies re- ceived awards on the final day of camp: Teresa Loggins, Most Valuable, Tish Vaughan, Most Hustle, Karen Crouse, Most Sacrificies, Paula Smith, Most Valuable Offense, and Kim Mox- ley, Most Durable. The hard work paid off as the varsity team finished third in the conference with Paula Smith and Tish Vaughan being named All Confer- ence, and Honorable Men- tion going to Teresa Loggins and Nisa Shelton. Paula Smith and Tish Vaughan were also named to the All Tour- nament Team. The junior varsity squad improved this year. The girls worked together as a whole and each girl’s skills were refined as a result of this team effort. Kim Moxley and Teresa Mabe were given All Tournament honors at the end of the season. Both groups ex- emplified Trojan Pride in their efforts. VSTY SCOREBOARD J.V.

Patience, Practice Made This Season A SLAM SESSION he Varsity Boys Basketball team under the direc- tion of new head coach, Hal Wooten, started out the season tremendous- ly. Eleven outstanding and talented individuals joined together to form the new squad. With the loss of seven seniors last year, many people were skeptical of what could be accomplished by this group. However, these guys have definitely proved many of the fans wrong. Led by seniors Randy Andrews and Jerry Barnes, they have mam- aged to pull off many games unexpectedly. They demonstrated the kind of enthusiasm and desire it takes to win. With the addition of one sophomore, Greg Gam- bill, the team showed additional improvement. The Trojans’ assets in- cluded strength in the inside game, good shoot- ing, and a great deal of hustle. But the thing that really made this team special was their cooper- ation and desire to work together. This has really strengthened them and made them the best team in the conference in the eyes of the Alleghany fans. Coach Wooten voiced his approval of the boys’ patience and effort. One departing senior summed it all up by stating, “It was a great season — a great experience, but I wish it had gone on a little longer.” Jerry Barnes puts pressure on the defense as he goes for the hoop. Varsity Basketball — 41 This Exciting Team Made The Fans TAKE A SECOND LOOK The Varsity Girls had a season to be proud of this year. They played well together and came away with some great wins. This team had a slight advantage over the others due to the fact they had more experi- ence because of the number of seniors on the squad. Also for the first time in three years, the girls had the same coach which helped with sta- bility. Even though the teams the girls faced were big- ger and better, the Trojans soon proved they had an outstanding team. Coach Hale was not surprised, however, because he knew that these ladies had the potential and qualities of a number one team. As the season pro- gressed, the competition increased, and the strat- egies for each opponent were arranged and re- arranged. The group kept their poise, though, and made a great deal of progress. Coach Hale stated that his main goal all through the season was to have the team “play smart, be active on defense, and rebound” when game time rolled around. One interesting asset of the team was the ability of the entire team to play. When the bench came out to relieve the first string, the score continued to rise. Looking back at 1987, the Lady Trojans’ success was due to team effort. The Lady Trojans gather around as Coach Hale gives some needed advice. 42 — Varsity Basketball VARSITY BASKETBALL On the Jump ball, Paula Smith tries to tip it to one of her teammates (left).

Coach Smith keeps a watchful eye on team progress. Nothing Could Stop The Trojan BIG GREEN MACHINE The wrestling team is made up of an outstanding group of guys that showed aggressiveness in every match. This group has been the most successful tournament team in the past several years winning both the Golden Eagle Christmas Tournament and placing first in the Wilkes Com- munity College Invita- tional. This year’s defending Conference squad is led by Captains Billy Blevins and Glenn Edwards. There are four additional seniors on the team: Rick Crouse, David McCall, Craig Dancy, and Michael Crouse. The Alleghany wres- The Trojan matmen offer con- gratulations to winner David McCall. tling program has been one of the most success- ful in the entire Blue Ridge Conference. Our teams have placed either first or second since 1976. What can be attributed to the success of these young men? Coach Jim Smith feels that it is because of the willing- ness of the athletes to spend the extra hours to be champions. “The credit belongs to the young men that have been willing to test themselves against other athletes in a one on one situation,” com- mented Coach Smith. Of course, members of the squad were quick to return the praise. One junior said, “We couldn’t have made it without him; he was great at all times.” We Salute The 1987 Blue Ridge CONFERENCE CHAMPS Glenn Edwards — State Champion 148 pounds 62 wins 11 losses 0 draws Sophomore Tony Sidden gets ready to break down his Northwest Ashe opponent for a win.

Desire, determination, and duty take DOUBLE CONFERENCE TITLES Both tennis teams had remarkable records this year. The boys finished their season undefeated with a 18-0 record, and the girls’ record was 10-0, making both teams con- ference champions. First year Coach Tom Smith said, “I was very pleased with the guys. They worked hard and it paid off.” Graduation claimed four starters out of the sixteen members. Of the remaining play- ers, Steve Brady and Billy Washington, Andrew Howell and Matt Black, and Larry Adams and Jerry Barnes finished undefeated. In singles, Steve Brady, Matt Black, Billy Washington, and Lee Upchurch finished with winning records. For the first time since the tennis program was started at Alleghany, the lady netters walked away with a conference title, which meant de- feating arch rival, Elkin. Undefeated players this year were Melissa Crouse, Mary Alice Sturgill, Tammy Busic, Stephanie Farmer, and Mechelle Luffman. San- dy Vannoy won the re- gional tournament and proceeded to the state playoffs.

Again the team made it to the state playoffs. The improved squad made it through the first round but fell in defeat on the second. Throughout the sea- son several players were recognized as exception- al athletes and received all-conference awards. These included “Tater” Maines, Scott Farmer, Heath Vogler, Darren Gil- bert, and Jerry Maines. Honorable mention honors were given to Michael Paul Edwards and Randy Andrews. The 1987 team will include five returning seniors: Michael Paul Edwards, Randy Andrews, Jerry Maines, and Scott Pruitt. Coach Hal Wooten sums up his 1986 sea- son, “It was a very successful year for a group of young men that put a lot of dedication into making us a very good ball team.” SENIORS Rick Crouse.

Baseball — 49 r V The Ladies Work Together and Clinch THE CONFERENCE TITLE it comes to softball. The 1986 Lady Trojans had a very productive season under the fine coaching of Kay Luffman, Gerald Luffman, and Kathy Ves- tal. These young ladies found their way to a 10-2 conference record and a 13-3 overall record. This placed the Trojans in second place with a chance to go to the first round of state playoffs. Although the ladies lost to Surry Central, Coach Luffman was very pleased with their overall performance. “They were a good group of athletes and were well rounded. I feel they made a great deal of improve- ment in a season’s time,” stated Coach Luffman. Although the team lost iamonds are a girl’s best friend, especially when six seniors, with no seniors moving up to re- place them, they still proved they were a team with backbone. Throughout the sea- son, many of these young ladies were recognized as outstanding athletes and received All-Con- ference honors. These included Teresa Loggins, Sandy Vannoy, Leanne Gentry, Paula Smith, and Sheila Miller. The 1987 team will be a very mature group of players with nine re- turning seniors. As one returning senior stated, “We feel that next year will even be better.

Taking Big Strides, the Trojans LEAP OUT IN FRONT ach spring while the air is still chilly and full of wind snow, a select group of athletes begin their trek. Hundreds of miles are covered, doz- ens ofhurdles are jumped, and thousands of sprints are run. Covered in sweatshirts and long- johns, boys and girls can be seen on the field pre- paring for competition. These athletes are run- ning track. With the aid of Coach Brenda Sutherland, the members of the Alle- ghany Track Team reach heights unobtainable by any other sport. The 1986 team consisted of two seniors, five juniors, four sophomores, and eight freshmen. A great deal of time is put into preparing for the different areas in track. Even though it is a team sport, individual areas make up the com- petition many times. In- cluded in the individual areas are sprints, long distance races, the long jump, the high jump, and the shot and discus. Overall, track is a sport that requires dedi- cation and a strong will to succeed. With winning on his mind, Fredrick Brown leaps over the bar to tie the meet (left).

Track — 53 Being A Cheerleader Means More Than LOOKING GOOD As the football players took to the field at the opening of another sea- son, a second high- spirited group also took to the field, THE CHEER- LEADERS. Amidst yell- ing crowds, enthusiastic cheerleaders braved the cold winds and the shifting temperatures to boost team morale. The season began with summer workouts and cheerleading camp. Six of the squad attended the UNC-C camp, along with their sponsor, Ms. Ves- tal. When football season began, the girls were anxious to show the fans what they had learned, but even more import- antly, to get the fans and players enthused about the game. These young ladies also cheered for both the boys’ and girls’ basket- bail teams. This meant at least two games a week, plus one day of practice. This proved to be a hectic schedule, but the squad stuck faithfully by the teams and provided them with support when the going got tough. Most of the cheer- leaders feel one of the best things about the game is the crowd. “Sure, you’re nervous at first, but after a few minutes some of the pressure goes away,” remarked one senior. Cheerleading can be difficult. However, when the crowd starts to roar, somehow it seems worth it to these young ladies. Karen Richardson leads the players on the floor at the Beaver Creek game. Even the fans get a chance to get in- A few moments before the game volved with the cheers as Stewart begins finds members of both squads Royall found out during a home game, finalizing the activities for the night. 54 — Varsity Cheerleading VARSITY CHEERLEADING The warmup session of the boys SENIORS.

He remarked, “A nine to one record doesn’t come around too often; we were looking for a five and five. This team was superb.” The team was spirited by the “three horsemen,” Mike Sprinkle, Scott Stoker, and Casey Chap- man. Mike was a major runner and the two run- ning backs did a super job,” stated Sigmon. Coach Jim Hale worked diligently with the defense, and they con- tributed a great deal to the Trojan record. These players ended up second in the confer- ence, and that’s nothing to scoff at. 56 — J.V. Football They’ve Got What It Takes To Be NUMBER ONE As first baseman, Doug Dancy stretches to save the ball. The 1986 J.V. baseball team spent a long spring preparing for one of the hardest seasons in re- cent history. These tough young men “took their knocks early, but settled down for a rush at the title,” stated Coach Gantt Sigmon. “I have nothing but praise for all the hard work, time, and en- ergy that this group of players put into the forming of the J.V. squad,” Coach Sigmon added. The undaunted spirit and determination to try is a fine example to all teams that winners never quit and quitters never win.

This young group of extremely talented athletes proved this to be true with a successful season. Co-captains Teresa Mabe and A’aronita Al- ford led the girls in their efforts to tie first place in the conference. A strong bench supported the ex- cellent defensive players on the team. Teamwork provided the ingredient that made this group tops at AHS. Coach Sid Miller was equally proud of his boys’ team. “The important thing about us is that we are able to work together and become better people,” he said. They hit the court three times a week in order to practice for their challenging games. They proved they had determination with their efforts and atti- tudes right from the beginning of the season.

Those Girls Can Really SOCK IT TO THEM Hoarse voices, numb hands, pulled mus- cles, frozen legs, hot faces: cheerleading can certainly be a pain. However, when you are cheering for your team, the pain doesn’t matter. Thanks to the hard work of their sponsor, Mrs. Smith, and the hard work of the girls, these cheerleaders definitely gave spirited support to our junior varsity sports and to the students of Alleghany High. Cheerleading requires long hours of practice and plenty of enthu- siasm. It involves hard work, coordination, and sportsmanship. One of the main tasks is leading and promoting school spirit. This year the squad is made up of more fresh- men than sophomores. Although some of these girls are very young and inexperienced, they real- ly know how to show their team spirit. As Lori Crouse commented, “Our fans support the teams even at away games. It makes our job as cheer- leaders much easier when the crowd cheers with us.” The J.V. cheerleaders have worked hard begin- ning with summer camp at UNC-C with the varsity squad. The work continued through foot- ball and basketball seasons with the squad striving to do their best. This effort pays off as the next step for many of these girls is the varsity squad. These young ladies have added much to our sports program and have gained invaluable experience. Getting to cheer with the varsity squad at the Homecoming game is always an anticipated event, expe- cially for Noelle Edwards (above). Freshman Lori Crouse knows how important it is to give it your all in cheerleading (right). 60 — J.V. Cheerleading MATMAIDS The Alleghany Mat- maids do not have the opportunity to attend a summer camp as the cheerleaders do in or- der to learn cheers and chants for their matches. However, this doesn’t make any difference to these spirited girls as they go the extra mile to support the wrestling team. “Pin your man,” are the key words of en- couragement heard before and during a match. Not only are the mat- maids a cheering squad for the wrestlers, but they also provide several essential services for the team. These include slic- ing oranges and wash- ing mats for the team. Funds for uniforms are raised through var- ious projects such as sell- ing candy grams for Christmas. The wrestlers have en- joyed and appreciated their support through- out the season.

After all, teachers bring to mind homework and administrators, rules and detention, schedules and suspen- sions. But that feeling was just on the surface; for most students realize Hiat the faculty contribute im- Even teachers must take some time for relaxation as is evidenced by members of the staff during the Junior-Senior Prom of 1986. measurably to the school and the student body. Where would clubs be without sponsors or teams without coaches? And what about that teacher who finally explains that tough calculus problem or helps you understand ANTIGONE? Indeed, the faculty and administra- tion are special people who make school just a bit more bearable by helping to bring about special mo- ments. These moments prove that we are not like every other school in the state. Even though we have the same curriculum and the same books, the teachers can and do make the difference. Our successful graduates have proven and will prove this to be true. The students in Mr. Jim Smith's Government class tally the votes from the mock election held on the eve of the state and national election this past November. Academics — 65 HEADING IT UP Readin’, riting’, and ’rithmetic are generally the first things that pop into anyone’s head when academics are mentioned. In reality, how- ever, the “three r’s” constitute only a small, but vital portion of the varied curriculum at Alleghany. Judging by the amount of activity around the school, nearly everyone takes advant- age of this varied curriculum. Busy students carrying stacks of books and trailing computer printouts are seen constantly hustling to and from class. Early before school and late in the afternoon, a peek into several of the class rooms will reveal students getting a little extra help from a willing teacher. It’s obvious that the staff cares about the students. Just ask yourself, how many times have you felt free to go to a teacher and say, “I don’t under- stand what we did today.” More than likely, you’ve done this more than you think. This extra help shows the commitment and care that is apparent in our school. Another example of in- volvement by the teachers is the way in which they partake in and provide the extracurricular activities that round out a pupil’s education. And do you remember some of the staff roaming the halls in crazy out- fits during Homecoming Week doing their part in order to build school spirit? In addition, we have a Board of Education and Administra- tion that work together to en- sure that our tradition of superior education will con- tinue at Alleghany.

Mr. Cornette would not cooperate and pleaded the Fifth Amendment. This aroused our curiosity even more, so we continued our search. When we asked Mr. Smith about this, he said, “This is illegal?” Mr. Hale sent us in the direction of the “resident bookie”. . . Hal Wooten. “It’s just an element of chance on the playoff games,” he explained. Various comments about this matter were elicited from other faculty members. Mr. Miller believes this promotes good fellowship among the teachers. Mr. Taylor is jealous because he always loses and Mrs. Murray wins. And lastly, Mrs. Dillon would like to get involved with these activi- ties. A chat with Mr. Rector still did not answer all our questions, so our search con- tinues.

You are in the process of reviewing how to add mixed fractions. Suddenly you find yourself confused because your students all look completely lost.

The only reason they exist is to help students get an education. To students, teachers have no normal lives, especially in the summer. However, after questioning some of the AHS faculty, the yearbook staff found that quite a few of our teachers do have normal lives in the summer, and even have a more exciting time than some of the students. Major McKinney managed to find time this past summer to garden, ride his motorcycle, and to sponsor a summer trip to Ft. Bragg for the JROTC students. Mr. Maines spent his time like many students, “just piddling.” Sounds familiar to many of us, doesn’t it? After hearing the ques- tion, Mr. Tom Smith quickly replied with a proud smile, “I got married!” Spending time with fami- lies is a favorite pasttime during June, July, and August, especially for Mrs. Dillon and Mrs. Sutherland. Mrs. Daniel spent her usual summer at the beach soaking up the rays and working on Captain Jim’s fishing boat. Since students do much more than attend school, don’t assume that teachers do nothing more than teach. Just ask your favorite teacher, “How did you spend your summer vacation?” Mrs. Sara McMillan English, English 9 AP, FTA, 11th Grade Sponsor.

LOOKING BACK When our teachers were in high school, did they do the same things we do today in their spare time? We asked several of the staff and got some interest- ing responses. Here are some of their replies. Mr. Tom Smith enjoyed playing cards with his friends, going fishing and riding his bicycle. After foot- ball practice, he would go to Halsey Drug Store and get a cherry coke. Not all the answers are that mild. Mr. Miller said that he chased more girls than he dated. Also he went to ACC games, played basket- ball and cards, and went to the movies on weekends. Ms. Edwards got together with a group of friends whenever possible. They went to ball games together and enjoyed cookouts, too. Finally, our principal revealed that he studied no more than some of us do today. He lived in a larger town than Sparta and had more activities from which to choose. The activities of our teachers as teenagers sound very much like our activities today. Times haven’t changed much, have they?

That’s the sound of students slamming lockers on their way to the next class. What about the teachers? Don’t they get lockers? Well, teachers have a “locker” of a different sort. We have all seen their desks, and they are typically messier than any student’s locker could ever become. Investigation of these huge storage places prove interesting. Nasty coffee cups, loose staples, old tests, and paper clips are in abun- dance. However, also found in some desks are crayons, makeup, needle nose pliers, playing cards, candy, and a Halloween mask. What are the teachers doing with this junk? “Well, we’re people, too. We have our silly quirks,” stated Mr. Bost. No, the job of the teacher is not to cause misery. They have fun just like the students at AHS, and the desk is just a way for the teachers to express the kid in all of us.

WHAT’S FOR LUNCH Our cafeteria staff works dili- gently each day to prepare two lunches and a breakfast for the students at Alleghany High School. The staff has participated in National School Lunch Week this past year. The staff, made up of Wanda Cleary, Ann Edwards, Anna DeBord, Carol Howard, and Mark Scott, greets the students with smiles every day. The staff consists of Mark Scott, Carol Howard, Ann Edwards, Wanda Cleary, and Anna DeBord (left). Mrs. Cleary and Mrs. Howard make change in the lunch line (above).

Academics — 77 MORE THAN SKIPPING A CLASS It’s the last Friday of the month, and it’s just like any other day, right? Wrong! It’s club day, and those who belong to any of the groups that meet on this day get to go directly from first period to clubs and miss their second period class. From dances to trips to candy sales, the clubs do it all. There is a wide variety of organizations from which to choose. Beginning with the clubs that are just for fun such as the Country Music Club, to those which explore a serious problem in our society, such as SADD, the organizations are in abundance at Alleghany. Hard work and valuable time is spent at most of these meetings. Many of them also call for extra time after school or on weekends in order for special projects to be completed. One junior remarked that the companionship and satisfaction he receives is well worth the effort and time required by his club. Clubs are a good way to enable students to grow. They provide a healthy atmosphere and the opportunity to interact with others which are two of the most important things in life. Browse through the following pages and check out Alleghany’s organizations. JROTC Cadets and their dates wait for the invoca- tion which preceded the first Military Ball and Dinner held in December.

STUDENT COUNCIL STUDENT COUNCIL STUDENT C 80 — Student Council Leaders of the Pack The Student Council organization is designed specifically with the students in mind. It is run for and by represen- tatives that are chosen in each homeroom. Besides having reg- ularly scheduled meet- ings to discuss various problems students may be having at school, the group sponsors many activities and projects for the school. One of the activities is the annual Christmas assembly with its spe- cial visitor from the North Pole. The May Fest Day provides a break in the regular routine with attractions such as the hot air dragon, the egg toss, and various other fun-filled activities. The Christ- mas Dance, Homecom- ing Dance, and Spring Dance are all made pos- sible by the members of the Student Council. Another popular project this year has been the Senior T-shirt sale. Our first exchange student in several years is sponsored by this organization. Besides being very ac- tive, this group of Alleghany students has proved to be an im- portant link between the students and faculty. Mrs. Kay Luffman.

This has given the staff the oppor- tunity to reflect on the accomplishments and failures of the school. The objective, of course, has been to create a chronicle of the 1986-87 school year. In this en- deavor, many aspects of student life, publica- tions, and expressions! journalism have been researched. The final compilation is a year- book designed in maga- zine format and titled, “It’s Confidential.” Mrs. Armentrout, the yearbook sponsor is quoted as saying, “The yearbook staff has been very creative, especially the editors. Because of the staff's hard work, our yearbook is innovative and unique. We hope the students enjoy our pub- lication.” Brainstorms, Copy, and Captions ADVERTISING MANAGERS Mellosa Crouse.

Making The Grade The National Beta Club is an educationally oriented club consisting of high achieving stu- dents. Once inducted into this organization, a member must continue to receive high grades and to strive for excel- lence. It is also a service organization that plans activities that are enjoy- able for its members and beneficial for the com- munity. A highlight of the year is the annual district Beta Club meeting which was held at Ashe Central High School this year and presided over by Javid Heravi, District President. Melissa Crouse, another member, is also secretary of the district Beta Club. One of the anticipated events of the year is the trip to the State Beta Club Meeting which will be held in Greensboro this year. This active club rounds out the year by inducting new members in the spring with special initi- ation procedures such as a theme dress-up day and an induction dinner for members and parents.

Not only have they participa- ted in several sports dur- ing their four years of school, but they have been active in club projects. A minimum of 40 points is required for athletes to receive a jacket. Earning 100 points entitles the student to a free jacket.

Three years ago, many of the AHS students followed in the footsteps of numerous other high schools in starting a club against people endanger- ing their own lives and the lives of others by drinking and driving. This organization is called Students Against Drunk Driving or SADD and is sponsored by Mrs. Kay Luff man. Young people in SADD volunteer their services and time in poster cam- paigns during prom and holiday seasons in an ef- fort to discourage stu- dents from drinking and driving.

However, at Alle- ghany archery means hard work and competi- tion with other schools. The group is known as target archers and use a recurve bow with the tips curving away from the archer. All of the arrows used are light- weight aluminum arrows. Safety is emphasized strongly with members knowing when and what to shoot at. The Archery Club takes their practicing seriously and designates one day a week after school for practice. All the members strive to do their best whether prac- ticing or competing.

They have classroom work corre- lated with on-the-job training and work sta- tions with their career interests in mind. Students participate in local competition relating to DECA goals, and winners go on to the district level. Those mak- ing proficiency at this level advance to the state competition.

This year, the club has a new sponsor, Mr. Vic- tor Mangialetti. He has many hopes for this club and states, “I’m trying to get more chapter com- petition within our dis- trict. Some examples of this competition are a tractor driving contest and a dairy-judging team.” The group participat- ed in a tractor driving contest at Beaver Creek and returned home with fifth place. This spring these young men will visit various dairies in Alleghany County and choose the best one. “They’ve been really strong in dairy judging in the past, and I think it could be one of our strong points in the program,” commented Mr. Mangialetti. The annual FFA cook- out at the end of the year will bring this club’s activities to an end. Several Alleghany students inspect the new tractor that will be used in the tractor driving contest.

One of the main projects of this organiza- tion is wiring the house that is built each year by the vocational classes. The annual VICA com- petition is anticipated by the club each year. If a member is a finalist in the wiring event, he gets to compete in the state contest. 96 — Electricity Eric Brown. Mike Maine . Bob Duncan. Terry Halo. Tony Shepherd.Olenn Edwards. Randy Rec tor.

Laying The Foundation Because of the first hand knowledge gained in the masonry classes, Alleghany students are better prepared for the world of work. Most of these masonry students belong to the masonry portion of the Vocational Industrial Clubs of America which promotes leadership, and character development. Some of their projects include working on the twelfth vocational house and building new bleach- ers for Woodruff Stadium. OFFICERS: Jimmy Tayson. Treasurer. Mitch Cleary. Secretary. Craig Dancy.

In Carpentry, the stu- dents have both planned projects and projects in which students can let their imaginations run wild. They are taught by methods which require direct contact with the materials and equipment about which they learn. These students acquire knowledge in the class- room but apply it in on- the-job type situations through repeated prac- tice of the new skills they gain. For some, Carpentry provides a break in the regular school day. How- ever, for the most part, it provides an invaluable education. 98 — Carpentry FRONT: Chris Taylor. Brad Wooten. Wayne Roark.

Auto Mechanics — 99 Drawing The Line The American In- dustrial Arts Student Association looks to Miss Johnson to teach them the tricks of the trade in architectural and mechanical draw- ing. This organization provides valuable know- ledge for those planning to pursue a career in this area. Made up of students from Drafting I, II, and III, this club encourages students to work not only with their hands but to reason also. Miss Johnson teaches them to calculate dis- tance, picture their project in its final state, and then exercise what they have learned in order to arrive at a final design. Not only do the mem- bers have to be skillful, they must have a per- sonal interest in the profession in order to to- tally understand what is being taught. Because of this association, Alle- ghany students are ready for further study after graduation. Drafting takes concentration. OFFICERS John Burglss. President. David McCall. Vico president.

Only one major accident was reported during the school year. This record is a result of the administration’s concern for bus safety. Most of the credit, how- ever, must go to the adults and students who have driven the buses through- out the year. Many thanks go to these drivers for their dedication and concern for the students’ safety while operating the buses to and from school over the past months.

The club’s primary con- cern is to create local in- terest in the area of Fine Arts. They have actively sponsored several musi- cal performances by major college musical ensembles at AHS. A major activity this year has been a group trip to Atlanta, Georgia, to observe theater and musical productions at various fine arts facili- ties. The expenses for this trip were raised through various activities includ- ing a 24-hour “rock-a- thon.” In the future the Music Club hopes to become even more active in the promotion of the Fine Arts.

Along with their busy schedule, they have added the goals of buy- ing new robes and per- forming at more civic organizations. Mr. Parsons com- mented, “We have a nice blend of voices. We’re look- ing to get off the risers more and add movement. We hope that our audi- ences will grow in size also.

It’s More Than Just The Sound Of Music Under the direction of Mr. Jeff Parsons, a re- cent college graduate and a former AHS stu- dent, the Band and Music Department have con- tinued the tradition of excellence at Alleghany. The months of hard work and practice resulted in a successful year for all students involved in both programs. The band’s marching season began during the week of July 28 — August 1 with the annual band camp. During this time, these students began practicing the dif- ficult and challenging field show that would win them success at three band festivals, as well as success with the fans during halftime of the varsity football games. After weeks of diligent practice, the marching band attended three fes- tivals during October and November. Al- though the band gave two excellent perfor- mances at Elkin and Burlington, its most im- pressive showing was at Independence, Virginia. Awards included first place drum major and flag corp, second place drum line awards and a Division I rating. The Concert Band also captured favorable reac- tions at its perfor- mances. With only six seniors graduating, the band has high hopes for next year. BAND BAND BAND BAND BAND BAND BAND BAND B BAND OFPICRR8 Elizabeth Irwin, Secretary'' Treasurer. Kim Rollins. Reporter.

Homecoming week is a much anticipated event in the school year and is sponsored and coordi- nated by the cheer- leaders and their spon- sors. The planning for this week long celebra- tion begins days before the actual date of home- coming. One of the highlights is the crowning of the new Miss Trojan. The en- tire student body votes on the selection of the queen. First, nomi- nations are made in homeroom for girls out of each respective class. Then all classes vote on the nominations, and the two students with the highest tally are named to the court. Then several days before Homecoming night, students vote on the queen and maid of honor. At halftime the eight young ladies and their escorts shown on these pages were presented to the audience. Finally, LeAnn Gentry was named Maid of Honor and Paula Smith was crowned Queen bringing to end another memo- rable week. 108 — Homecoming Freshman Representative — Tina Greer Escort — David Woodie (above).

These costumes depict the theme “Around the World with Beauty. 110 — Miss Alleghany MISS ALLEGHANY For the first time since its origination, the Jour- nalism class sponsored the Miss Alleghany High School pageant. The theme of the pageant was “Around the World with Beauty.” Several changes were made in the format. The talent portion of the presenta- tion was eliminated and a physical fitness rou- tine added. After many hours of practice, decorating, and waiting, the big night finally arrived. On the evening of May 3, 1986, thirteen girls waited anxiously to see who would be crowned the new queen. The judges chose a senior, Karon Worrell, to receive the crown. First runner-up honors went to Teresa Osborne, second runner- up was Mary Alice Sturgill, and third runner-up was Laura Griffin. Non-finalist awards were given for each area of competition. They in- cluded Cindy Brinegar for interview, Tina Andrews for physical fit- ness, Melissa Williams in the “It’s Me” competi- tion, Karen Richardson for evening gown, and Michelle France for the best creative costume. The Miss Congeniality Award, voted on by the contestants, went to Tina Andrews. After much ex- citement the night came to an end until the next year when a new Miss Alleghany would be named. The physical fitness routine gives the Judges a chance to observe each contestant’s stamina and coordination.

During the summer, 15 cadets attended summer camp at Fort Bragg where they rapelled, negotiated obstacle courses, fired machine guns, and tried other military skills. As the school year began, 50 cadets took a four-day visitation trip to Fort Bragg. While there, they observed military training and learned about the day- to-day life in the Army. The cadets took part in several other activi- ties. The rifle team competed at ASU and in several postal matches. The color guard per- formed at all home foot- ball and basketball games. Other cadets trekked off in search of high adven- ture and a ranger’s beret by spelunking, rapelling, and other outdoor ac- tivities. JROTC also held the first Military Ball. All who attended held it to be one of the more mem- orable nights of the school year. This organization is one of the more active in the school; they never shirk their duties.

People with different employ- ment backgrounds dis- cuss career opportuni- ties with the Explorers each month. For ex- ample, a highway patrol- man recently discussed law enforcement careers with the members. Hope- fully, this will help these young people to choose the right career. In order to be in Ex- plorer Scouts, one does not have to be in JROTC, although it is sponsored by the cadets. It is also a social club with several gatherings throughout the year. The Explorer Scouts combine a serious pur- pose with some enjoy- able activities to provide a needed organization. FRONT. Valorle Brown. Charlene Blevins. Rebecca Scott, Regina Cox. Cathy Sowlnskl.

An incred- ible number of hours per day are spent in studying and completing assign- ments. By being named a marshal, a student not only knows that he is one of the top ten students in the class but will also have the honor of assisting with gradu- ation. A vast amount of A’s and B’s have been earned in order to be recognized as the best of the best. Giving up a special date or staying up past midnight in order to gain some extra hours is nothing new to these juniors. They know they must make sacrifices which will enable them to squeeze in some extra study time. In addition, part-time jobs, sports, and extracurricular activities make heavy demands on time. As one junior com- mented, “I didn’t study hard just to be named a marshal. It was a complete honor and surprise to me.” Why do they do it? There are many reasons including a true interest in learning and expand- ing their education, fu- ture college careers, and potential job opportuni- ties. Burning the mid- night oil does have its re- wards. JUNIOR MARSHALS JUNIOR MARSHALS JUNIOR MAI Junior Marshals — 115 FRONT: Lisa Truitt, Sheila Millar. Jennifer Bledsoe, Shannon Roy all.

Students spend hours dreaming of the time when they will become seniors. How- ever each class is unique. Every year the juniors work diligently to prepare a prom that will last in the minds of each seniors for many years to come. Next down the ladder of seniority is the sophomore class. These students find they are fac- ing greater responsibilities. It is the period in which most teenagers turn sixteen and get their driver’s license. The freshman year is the time when individuals can fake inno- cence and get away with it. The ex- pression “stupid freshmen” is probably used at least once a day throughout the year. They are the ones that face pressiore to adapt to a new and bigger place and a dif- ferent atmosphere. Underclassmen are just biding their time until its time for them to be seniors. They are the founda- tion of Alleghany High School. They hold the candle that lights the path of the future. A feeling of nostalgia prevails throughout the school on Fifties Day during Homecoming week. Dressed in the “Happy Days” fashion are under- classmen Lisa Truitt, Julie Fender, Sonja Shaw, and Stacy Shepherd. Lynn Brooks assignment under Eller finish a special of Ms. Daniel. Underclassmen — 117 ONE TO GO The best part of being a junior? We asked some juniors what they thought and many answers were the same. One of the most occurring answers was, “only one year to go.” Others thought that getting a class ring was important, as well as participating in varsity sports. And, finally, the junior-senior prom is the highlight for many. The junior-senior prom was a memorable moment for many Juniors, like Tlsh Vaughn and her date.

A number of juniors were asked “What are some of the changes you would like to see when you become a senior?” A variety of responses were given. A majority of the class requested that the senior lockers be moved back to their original loca- tion. Many juniors would like the priv- ilege of leaving school during their lunch period or even extending it. Other “seniors-to- be” prefer to live without the hall pass. If the time between classes was lengthened, teachers would not be faced with so many requests for a restroom pass. Karen Brinegar was among the few that would like for the administration to bring back the smoking area. What do you think of these suggestions?

However, year after year, lockers become so persona- lized it’s amazing. The right amount of wadded paper or sweaters and jack- ets from last year give it just the right touch.

Sophomores still face many questions and uncertainties in their second year of high school. Many are begin- ning to find their niche, whether it is in activities, sports, or academics.

After the shock wears off, most stu- dents start worry- ing about how a low grade will affect their six weeks aver- age. While some soph- omores such as Sylvia Loggins do not mind these sur- prises because “some of them are easy,” others detest them, as explained by Lynn Brooks who says, “Pop quizzes stink.” Glenna Overbay hopes a few minutes of study is good insur- ance against a pop quiz. 128 — Sophomores Jennifer Lundy Teresa Mabe Donny McCall Toby McCaskill Doug McMillan Patrick McMillan Renee McMillan James A.

For months, sophomores dream of the big day and what they will do once that important document is in their hands. Listed below are some of the plans being made by soon-to-be AHS drivers. Kim Moxley: “Go to town and party hard.” Lori Crouse: “Go to the ‘big town’ of Sparta and cruise.” Amy Reynolds is anticipating the big day. John Finney: “Run off in the ditch.” Debbie Huffman: “Get a speeding ticket.” Dana Joines: “Enter a drag race at Elk Creek.” Mark Parsons: “Go to town and cruise and pick up some foxy chicks.” In five years, these people may give us completely different answers as to the first thing they actually did when they first got their license. It would be interesting just to see how they felt on the big day. We’ll just have to wait and see. Dwayne Washington Melissa Williams Robin Williams Adam Woodel Chris Wyatt These sophomores have appropriated their own table at lunch just as many of their classmates have. Sophomores — 131 THE BRIGHTER SIDE As students pro- ceed from elemen- tary school to high school, there are many changes that take place. Some are bad, but most are good. These fresh- men show us the bright side of AHS. Joel Farmer tells us that he likes the teachers better while Poss Hamm thinks everything is great, especially the freedom as com- pared to elementary school. “During lunch you can go anywhere you want. I just like every- thing,” says Poss. However, Tammy Moxley is already looking ahead to being a senior. The variety of classes rank high on Jane Robertson’s favorites while Iva Sue Smith likes the activities offered here. It seems that the majority of new students enjoy high school.

When we see a trail of papers in midair, we know that some freshmen, who desperately needs a Trapper Keeper, is racing his way to his next class. If we see shavings of a pencil, we know he is whiz- zing through a test Leslie Reinhardt takes being a freshman in stride. that is foreign to him. When we see a huddle in the lobby that resembles the Green Pay Packers, we know it’s just the freshmen. When we see a freshman run- ning down the hall, looking over his shoulder, we can usually conclude that a furious teacher or insane senior is hot on his trail. This is one of a typical freshman’s better days!

Freshman 135 136 — Advertisements FINANCING THE 1987 TROJAN The process of an advertising purchase becoming a reality is a long one. First a personal visit must be paid by a member of the staff to each business. Many times this entails giving up free time to travel to Independence, Galax, Elkin, Wilkesboro, and Jefferson. After the ad has been purchased, the bill must be typed and mailed, receipts written, and finally the money balanced out. Then each individual ad must be drawn up, typed, and proofread. This long process requires about 12 weeks of tedious working and planning on the part of the staff. The final layouts are handled by Janie Cook and Melissa Crouse, Advertising Managers. Ms. Daniel is in charge of these 60 odd pages that help finance each yearbook. Without the support of the Sparta merchants and the busi- nesses in the surrounding areas, each yearbook would cost approx- imately one third more than each student pays. A special thank you goes to each advertiser for your investment in the 1987 TROJAN. The 1987 TROJAN is made possible by the support of the Alleghany County Chamber of Commerce and merchants in Sparta and the surrounding areas. Not only do many Sparta stores advertise in the TROJAN, but they also hire Alleghany students, such as Melissa Logglns. for part-time and coopera- tive Jobs.
