A few, however, undoubtedly could attain far greater recognition in fields other than teaching, yet they prefer to rate the satisfac- tion gained from instructing young people over more tangible rewards available in other profes- sions. Such men are dedicated to helping others attain the public recognition, which they have de- nied themselves. There is at least one such man at Battle Ground Academy. His interests include not only academic matters but the school's athletic pro- gram as well, and it goes without saying that he has contributed more than mere coaching ability to making his teams victorious and successful. Through association with such a teacher, students here have learned course material necessary to continue their formal education, moreover, they have become aware of the world which surrounds them in order to be able to take their proper place in tomorrowis affairs. In recognition of these contributions, we, the Senior Class, dedicate the 1972 CANNON BALL to Mr. John Colmore. fi aff' 1 ASYJ E. M if rr ZS: .gag 11 A Page 11 Q! f 1 Q gm 9 4 x fm Zi?

They are entirely devoted to what they do. One rarely finds a faculty mem- ber Who will not stop and help him, if he possi- bly can. Teachers are called on to work longer than from 8 to 3. They often work for sixteen or more hours per day. This is true devotion. On a rotating basis, they take dor- mitory duty, which requires the greatest amount of time. Not only do Battle Ground teachers instruct the student body during the day, but they supervise the boarders at night. Many of the faculty spend a lot of their extra time coaching and sponsoring extracurricular activities. Every three weeks the faculty has a meeting to discuss the academic standings of the students. These meetings sometimes get rather lengthly but are deemed necessary. Despite the problems and long hours, our in- structors go through this with few complaints. The CANNON BALL salutes our faculty for the outstanding job they do. Xi! S 5 ill!! ,,,,..,.....-- ...nn X gg S3- 4-vf MX-- M 1 A :Sh ' 5 F N... 5 5 5' 1 J 'Q 9 V al i, 'mi f51'm Q . f' we iw-1 , Q.

Spring at BGA is a time when most, if not all, students are involved in such sports as baseball, golf, track, or tennis. Others become involved in other endeavors such as the Jamboree, Grit Day, or the Final Dance. Then all of the student body is involved in the famous, or to the losers, the in- famous, Tug-of-War. Yet the deadline which stares each CANNON BALL stalf squarely in the face does not allow the events of that particular spring to be reported to any significant degree. It is for this reason that the staff has included last spring in this year's annual. To leave out such an integral part of the BGA school year would hardly be just.

Although the team did not participate in a large number of meets, the competition was of the highest quality. The Wildcats defeated two of the better teams in the state: Baylor, who won the eastern district of the state, and Clarksville, who won the midstate district. Along with these two well deserved victories, BGA soundly defeated Clarksville Northwest. In the Green Hills Relays the team was forced to settle for a third place. 'WN 1' H Most of the team placed in each of the separate events, but two outstanding per- formances came from Bill Smith, who placed hrst in the region and sixth in the state in the shot put, and Jay Nordykc, who ran the mile and placed first in the district, second in the region, and seventh in the state. It was the goal of the 1971 track team to put together the valuable knowledge andexperience gained over the previous three years and use it to have a season which compared with those of the great BGA track teams of the past. Because of supreme dedication and excellent coaching, the team, by the end of the season, felt that it had reached that goal. J The Wildcats were plagued with freak accidents such as dropped batons, disqualiiications, and pulled muscles which would, if avoided, have given at least a second place and possibly a first. Due to a line coaching effort and several individual practice sessions with many of the runners, Mr. Col- more showed Middle Tennessee that BGA had several state prospects. Among such individuals were: David McMillen and Jim Harrison running the high and low hurdles respectively, Bill Ross and Trey Doak in the hundred yard dash, William Billington, who jumped six feet, two and one half inches at Baylor in the high jump, thus just missing a school record, Jon Kinnard and Clay Harlin in the 440-yard dash, and J ay Nordykc in the mile. Others who gained a great deal of ex- perience for the 1972 season were Parker Wright, Lee Grigsby, Bobby Schatz, Curtis Hopper, and Luke Ross. The long and hard practice of these boys payed off at the end of the season when everyone gave all that he had, and the Wildcats placed third in the district meet. Page 37 . W,.. VV . f' -f ---. .

The key loss from last year's team was Bill Smith who was so consist- ent in getting BGA valuable points. However, most of the important fig- ures of the 1971 season will be re- turning. High hopes Will be resting with Jay Nordyke who is expected to excel in the mile run. The relay teams should also have a strong sea- son. Experience Will probably be the most helpful factor in a success- ful 1972 season. With the help of Mr. Colmore, BGA should exceed the achievements of the 1971 team. J 1 le-if In the third match of the season, the Cats showed true greatness in mauling Springfield by 67 strokes. Vining led the Blue Machine to victory with a 36 stroke margin over his opponent, while Gore and McLean were both in the low 8O's. Next Columbia again fell victim to the Big Blue. Led by Steele and McLean, who fired 75,s, the Machine took a 25 stroke vic- tory, and the teamis record had yet to be blemished. The possibility of defeat arose early in the next match against Dickson. The Machine seemed destined to be shut down for the hrst time in the season, but with the help of McLean's 74, the Blue Men were able to avoid total disaster and gain a 6-6 tie with a stubborn Dickson team. The sixth match found the team defeating CMA once again, despite a 69 carded by CMA's Lee Williams. The Cats took an eight stroke victory, and Gore was our low man with a 77. xi 9 ' '. GOLF The BGA golf team had one of its best seasons ever last year, ending the season with eight wins, no losses, and one tie. This record was compiled through the talents of eight golfers: Brank McLean, Tommy Stephenson, Tom Steele, Charles Gore, Jeff Vining, John Stone, Randy Goldstein, and Trey Boyd. In most of the matches, the first five of these were the standard bearers for the Big Blue Ma- Chine. CMA was the first victim to meet its doom at the hands of the Machine Led by T. Stephenson with a 77, the Cats romped to a seven stroke victory. Columbia was the next to fall by a score of 18W-SW, and T. Stephenson and Charles Gore were low men for BGA with 76's.

The seventh match, when the Blue Men met a tough Castle Heights team, was probably the hardest fought contest of the season. Struggling to stay on the course on the front nine, the Cats recovered on the back nine and captured the win with a one-stroke victory. Steele was low man with a resounding 75. We defeated Heights again in the last regular season match. The nine-hole contest was finally decided by the last man, Vining, who won by four strokes. Gore was low with 38. This brought the Cats to the regional tourna- ment, where the team's machine-like precision H- nally broke down. Although they were expected to do well, a combination of bad weather and bad luck doomed the team eifort. The tournament's one bright spot was T. Stephenson's 78, which put him in the play-off for a spot in the state tourna- ment. Although their showing in the regional was poor, the golf team did Iinish the regular season undefeated. Furthermore, it appears that the team should have another line season in '72, since seven of last year's eight-McLean, Stephenson, Steele, Gore, Vining, Stone, and Boyd-are re- turning. Under the continued direction of Coach Shelton, the team expects an even better season in ,72. Golf is not a spectator sport at Battle Ground. The closest match is played at Dickson or Colum- bia, and very few make the trips to watch the team. Golfers must sacriiice time and effort and expect only rewards of personal satisfaction and pride in school victories. in-dmv it ve .av- ..N,.w ,,,. --mm... 4 Q... wvmaa, Y ,Z Q . ,Q if gnsnli-'-I Page 41 J AMBUBEE Along with the coming of spring arrived the third an- nual BGA Jamboree. This fantastic event was the best ever, and a great time was had by all present. This Jam- boree was destined to be a success because of the supreme interest of the student body, the faculty and administra- tion, and the parents. Much credit must be given to the Men's Club and Women's Auxiliary for their effort and or- ganization of this event. The day began early with the numerous sporting events starting at 3:00 and continuing throughout the day. As the athletic activities came to a close, the waiting mothers began selling from their respective booths. All of the booths, including the White Elephant, the Green Thumb, the Bake Shop, and the Antique and Gift booth, were filled with buyers of all ages. While things were going smoothly inside the gym, several students were tak- ing their hostilities out on an outdated automobile. This activity continued all through the night. The car bash was one of the biggest money makers of the day. At 5:00 thc dinner bell was rung and the fish fry began. The four-hundred pounds of Scotch Haddock was quickly diminished along with the delicious french fries, hush puppies, cole slaw, and the ice-cold lemonade. At 9:00 the last person was Hnally served. In those four hours 1,300 people were served, an increase over last year's total. Page 42 Q75 vw I fs, 17 5 1 Q F W Aii w L,bm,,,L AA, Y l I Page p-,, 'W W 551 An. M 'fbi if 5 M, . ,,,...-1 The Auction, already in progress by this time, was well under way. By meal time, over three- fourths of the items donated had been auctioned oii. The gym had been filled with household items, clothing, toys, and games-some new, some old, and even some antiques. After Colonel Beasley had disposed of nearly all the auction items, they rolled out the barrel of raiile tickets. It was spun and shaken, and finally a ticket was extracted from it. The suspense was now over, the winner of the Chevrolet Vega was Tom Ruth- erford's sister, Karen. With the completion of the drawing, parents and patrons began to wind their ways homeward, and the third annual Jam- boree-Auction came to a close. Thanks are extended to the parents, faculty, administration, Menis Club, Women's Auxiliary, students, and all those who gave generously of their time and products to make this worthwhile cause a great success. www, 14 ttt ritta i ig- ii C i 4 Page 44 V V ..,, ,,,.,.. .2 --- 'R 51.12 ,ip , 'Rigas ,v Xi . . , . .s t' 1 4.

'41, 'ai y it GBIT DAY In only its second year Grit Day has become a BGA tradition. The main pur- pose of Grit Day is to give the students a holiday from -the day to day routine of student life. It also has a secondary pur- pose in that it provides money for the so- cial committee's budget. Grit Day is a welcome respite from the normal for both teachers and students. The contest for biggest grit added greatly to the fun. Baily Allen won the student category handily, while Mrs. Cole and Mr. Hollman were the co-fopD-win- ners of the faculty division. There was very little competition in either category, but the change of pace was welcomed by everyone. are 2-P it V ss ,.. 5 5' Sf is W' - ' if ,av L ' W SSW ,l Page 45 'x F Q 5 WY Page 46 il by l l TENNIS The BGA Tennis team completed, in the overall perspective, a successful year, ending the season with a 7-2 record. The main highlight of the year was when Budge Jamison, in his second match against MBA, defeated his opponent after losing to this same individual in the earlier match. Drew Shillinglaw defeated MBA's number-one man in both en- counters. Drew, who was elected the most valuable BGA tennis player, teamed with Bram Neil, who was chosen most improved, to defeat Lipscombls Dunn and Lloyd. Competing for the number-one and number-two positions for the districts were Drew Shillinglaw and Sammy Duke, with Shil- linglaw victorious. Bram Neil and Drew Shillinglaw later defeated Sammy Duke and Pat Ross for the battle to determine the num- ber-one and the number-two positions in the doubles in the district competition. In the region Drew was runner-up in the singles competition, while Drew and Bram were runners-up in doubles. Both teams went to the state where Drew won his first round in the singles, but lost in the second to one of the finest players in the state. During the summer, Shillinglaw was invited to participate in the National Junior Tournament in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Later he went on to win the State Closed Tournament in the sixteen- year-old division. The future of the team definitely looks good. The varsity only loses one player in Bram Neil, who should be quickly replaced by one of the members of the Junior High team, which went unde- feated in the competition among the local teams. With such fine performance by both the Varsity and the Junior High, BGA seems to be destined to become a local tennis power. Page 47 BASEBALL Preseason drills for the 1971 baseball season gave rise to high hopes for the forthcoming cam- paign. Everyone agreed that the team had great potential and could go far, perhaps to the district championships. As it turned out, BGA had an up and down season. The baseball team opened its season with a loss to a fine Mount Pleasant nine. The Wildcats re- bounded however and came back strong to defeat Centerville. After the Centerville game, a key figure in the success or failure of the season, Steve Smith, was lost for the remainder of the year due to a hand injury in ia fluke accident with the pitch- ing machine. The next few games demonstrated our incon- sistency. We would win in tremendous style, then turn around and lose because we couldn't seem to do anything right. However, as the year pro- gressed, the team grew stronger and began to win more games. The highlight of this period was a doubleheader sweep over ia CMA team which had previously mounted a very impressive record. The season was ended on a rather sour note with a tough final game loss to Columbia. There were many frustrations for Coach Bobby Gentry's team of last year. It was extremely exasperating to not reap the full rewards from the talent that was obviously there. However, the team did win some great games, and the games that were lost were by slim margins and could have gone the other way. The prospects for next season look encourag- ing. Some of our hitting power will be gone, but BGA should be excellent on defense. Rory Ferrell, Mike Lightfoot, Andy Ferrell, Charlie Little, Mike Mulli- can, Jim Wilhoite, Kenny Harmon, Kurt Jeter, Robbie McDowell, and Dennis Smithson all return, so it appears that next spring's team has a good chance to improve on the 1971 record. Page 49 in TUG 017 WAR In the early afternoon of May 10, 1971, a coin was tossed into the space immediately above the stage of the Battle Ground Academy study hall. How odd it was that the landing position of such a small object as a coin could seal the fate of half the student body's chances of remaining dry for the rest of the afternoon. At about three p.m., the BGA students began assembling on opposite sides of a small bend in the Harpeth River. The bridge which spans this, the modern site of the tug of war, quickly became cluttered with interested onlookers, innocent by- standers, and their automobiles. Of course, the fateful flight of the fickle coin determined that the Greers, by the sacred right of calling heads cor- rectly, would command the 'town side' of the cold, muddy waters. This side has running -per- pendicular to the riveris bank, a cow path which, in previous years, had been used by both sides to turn the tug into a track meet, either toward or away from the river. This particular tug turned out to be one of the longest in BGA history. After a grueling struggle the truly superior Greers, not to be denied, began to take the advantage, as the Platos started to top- ple into the muddy Harpeth. In just a few min- utes the Greers had gained revenge for the pre- vious year's loss and the subsequent humiliation.

Qym?ia4W,,avf L In the spring of 1971, Mr. Jimmy Gentry decided to introduce a field trip into the biology curriculum. After a short journey into a rural section of Williamson County, the biology students got off the bus and hiked for almost two miles to the site of the exploration. The students broke up into teams, each with the purpose of studying a particular type of wildlife. Some groups studied plants, some microorganisms, some birds, some insects, and some the river. The area contained almost all types of terrain, so the variety of life was practically unlimited. After a full day of exploration, the adventurers reassembled and retumed to school. Y ,, 5 K hz 41.

Page 51 .xxxx Page 'G' GBEEB - PLATO DEBATE The spring of 1971 marked the continua- tion at BGA of an old tradition, the Greer- Plato debate. The debate was ably con- tested by four underclassmen. The Greers were represented by Terry McCarter and Earl Vickers, the Platos by Mark Naftel and Mike Lightfoot. They presented the Na- tional Debate Topic: 'tResolved, that the federal government should establish, admin- ister, and finance programs to control air andfor water pollution. The debate was judged by neutral members of the faculty in the audience. There are still discussions concerning the outcome of the debate, with many circles, especially among the Greers, disagreeing with the Hnal outcome. Not only was it an excellent debate, but it also proved to be very informative to those who are unfamiliar with this style of speaking. This debate is one of the few manifestations of BGA's strong speech program to be seen by the student body as a whole. Speech at BGA needs all the exposure that it can pos- sibly obtaing for it is a worthy, if overlooked, program. AWARDS BANQUET Each year BGA honors those individuals who have represented it in varsity interscho- lastic competition with an awards banquet. The supper is traditionally followed by a speech, generally from a well-known, local sports iigure. In the past such individuals as Bill Pace and Jess Neely have spoken at this event. Continuing in this tradition, BGA invited Bill Battle, head football'coach at the University of Tennessee, and Don Denbo, Steve Robinson, and George Silvey, all three BGA graduates and Tennessee football players, to speak at the banquet. The 1971 Awards Banquet was held at Belle Meade Country Club. Previously it had been held at the Hillwood Country Club, but due to the increasing number of students who were honored at this event, it was deemed necessary to move it to a larger location. The highlight of the night was the presen- tation of the letters and the other awards. It was at this time that the two awards to the most outstanding juniors, the Sewanee Award and the Harvard Club Book, were presented to their recipients, Bill Fuqua and J elf Vining respectively. p,,, ,,,, , , K, . ---' 'TF Q , .fwf -. .11 - Eag- . F ' ,xa............. FINAL DANCE The giving by the junior class of a dance in honor of the seniors is tradi- tional at BGA for the month of May. Since 1971 had one of the best junior classes that had come along in a while, it was supposed that their dance would also be one of the best. Work began early enough, but the wonderful imagina- tion of the juniors created more and more jobs. The social committee had to recruit some seniors and sophomores to com- plete the labor force. When everything was finished, most people agreed that the Out In the Country theme was one of the most imaginative that had ever graced the walls of Briggs Gymnasium. Eight p.m., May 7, Enally arrived and so did the Short Cuts who featured a large array of soul music. The large turn- out pleased those who had worked so hard on the decorations. However, the true success of the dance rested in the fact that all had a great time. Page 5 4 ,4 'd is I6 -Q 1 ' f ff- ,WH if, if . A ,, x1-Gff ',,,,,': f YI QW-' L. Q. .:,k l A',,.

It has been the objective of this year's CANNON BALL to report all the events of the school year. However, many things oc- curred this past summer which influenced not only this school year, but also the future of Battle Ground Academy. From a physi- cal standpoint, the events of last summer changed the campus dramatically. The old dormitory was wrecked and removed, and two new classrooms were added to the new dorm. Work was also done to improve the physical appearance of the administration building. O N . xi, 1 . 4 5 X l Yet the summer saw not only changes to the physical appearance of the school but also its atmosphere. Vast changes oc- curred in both the faculty and the student body. With the graduation of last year's seniors and the selection of the new stu- dents, there were many new faces in the student body. The addition of eleven indi- viduals to the faculty was to make even the old students feel as if they were in new sur- roundings. These changes were to play an important role in the proceedings of the coming school year. Page 57 3 l r-J Immediately after the end of school last year, a new era at BGA began with the destruction of the old dormitory, Peo- ples Hall. The demolition was com- pleted just before the start of this school year. Soon thereafter work began on a new building. The old dormitory served BGA well over a span of fifty years. Since its con- stuction in 1923, Peoples Hall served in a variety of functions including as a cafe- teria and a dormitory. The last years of its existence were spent serving as a dor- mitory for the underclassman boarders, although it did have four apartments for those members of the faculty who were responsible for the boarders in residence there. Much happened in the old dorm across the years. It was the temporary home of hundreds of BGA students. The boarders developed a language of their own which the day students could not understand. Ill I 5 ,1- 4 I-,,,,.,, Such individuals as Nobody, the GTO, the Yel- low Butterflyf' the Susquatch, the Green Onion, the 4'Spider, and later personalities such as 'gMad Anthonyf' Big Sandy,', '4Plant Life, Doodle, and many others have all endured the life that existed in the old dorm. This life included the problems of standing in line thirty minutes for a shower when supper was only thirty minutes away, of never having any hot water when you did take that shower, or, if an urchin, there was the constant threat of that supposedly outlawed hazing, always led, of course, by the proctors. The new building, which will house the library, audio- visual center, the language department, commons area, and dining room, is being built by the Cartwright Con- struction Company of Shelbyville, utilizing an architecture which is quite popular at this time. The building is sched- uled to be completed by the l972-73 school year, and all indications point to a successful rendezvous with that deadline. V -,,,,.

N ,-.Q .X L.. l in T Each August the faculty has several meetings devoted to the propositions for the oncoming school year. It is at this faculty meeting that the preparations for school are always made. In this yearls meetings not only did the returning fac- ulty members become acquainted with the new ones, but also such questions as the serving of demerits and the new stu- dent handbook were discussed. There were eleven new members of the faculty. Eight of these were beginning their first year of teaching. However, these new teachers easily became sea- soned veterans. The beginning teachers were Mr. Nie- meyer, who graduated from Notre Dame Universityg Mr. Chatman and Mr. Brock were graduates of MTSUg Mr. Hall and Mr. Moore graduated from Vanderbiltg Mr. Leon was a graduate of the University of the Southg and Mr. Seaton a student at Vanderbilt Law School. The veteran teachers beginning their first year of teaching at BGA were Mr. Rauchle from SMA, Miss Doggett from Franklin High, Mr. Cole from Woodbury, and Mr. Pritchard from Bruceton High. Page 61 Page 62 This year's registration was slightly dif- ferent from that of previous years. Many totally unexpected changes welcomed both the returning and entering student. The students were confronted with such changes as the hole,' instead of the old dorm, new carpeting and lighting in the hallways, the trophy cases and museum in the Commissary instead of the halls and a new coat of paint on these antiquated walls. All of these pointed to the begin- ning of some definite improvements at BGA as a result of the capital funds drive. The next shock was found in observing all of the new students and faculty. Many of those who were returning from last year found it difficult to discern be- tween the new students and the faculty. This dilemma was quickly resolved by the next week. It appears that the con- fusion might have been caused by hair Hopping in some peop1e's eyes. As a result a great load was removed from some students' minds during the interim be- tween registration and the actual beginning of school. There was also a great deal of confusion in de- termining the correct class sponsors. At times it seemed that more people were renewing old friendships than were obtaining their schedule cards. At times people would come in a rather heavy flow which left one with the impression that the student body had grown two-fold. After one had managed to escape this crowd, he was forced to face an equally terrifying crowd in what seemed to be a futile attempt to buy his books. While in this mob, he was also confronted by the agonizing terror of the upperclassmen's endeav- ors to pawn off last year's books. Needless to say, the atmosphere was akin to a giant steam bathg and some persons even began to feel sorry for those poor teachers who were working so hard. After the ordeal of the books, each individual retreated outside where old acquaintances were renewed and informal conversations resumed. One could sense that the school year was on the verge of another beginning. . -,, K ', tW,,,sxQii?wN is K .Q ew' ,,-mf 'L ' Q r H F, 6 'gd s'x 5- '.,.I-1 Iv' ' . 5' N .

This is the time that we all return from our summer vacations and turn our minds once again to the world of academia. Yet fall, especially at BGA is much more than that. It is the opportunity to make new and resume old friendships. It is the opportunity to become involved in something more meaningful than oneself. It is the opportunity to improve not only scholastically, but also physically and men- tally in ways which studies alone cannot provide. Fall bears out the point that BGA is not just a school but a way of life. Page 64 7- . . 4 4 'K ,P c- M ' . iw O N9 S.

A r Sport, your case lacks inherency, significance, and topicality, and furthermore, it stinks. Page 71 On September 7, at nine o'clock, the moment which all BGA students and faculty were awaiting arrived. This moment had been heralded a week before with reg- istration, but even then the true impact of the realiza- tion that school was about to begin was not felt. It was not until this moment that each individual realized that school had begun. Just prior to this occasion, those acquaintances not renewed at registration were started up once again. Informal discussions concerning the new turn of events were held. Such topics as the past summer and the new faculty were discussed. These talks were interrupted when nine o'clock rolled around, for it was at this time that the entire stu- dent body was welcomed for another year of school. It was at this time that the student body was informed of the student handbooks. These were those literary mas- terpieces which set forth in writing all of the old and new rules which were to govern the student body. Pupils were then dismissed to their counselling periods where the handbooks were discussed in detail. Page 72 -mf fs , wg? ' sf , s ws R 2, ,.. rw W mr M E Q it 3 From these counselling sessions, students were sent through a shortened schedule of classes in which they received assignments and evaluated instructors. The newer students soon became lost, a problem which would plague the halls for several days, as these fresh faces slowly accustomed themselves to the layout of the buildings. Meanwhile the older students began to ac- quaint themselves with the new faculty and became aware that harmonious relationships could be estab- lished within a short period of time. That Hrst day was much too brief to answer all the questions in everyone's mind, it ended much as it had started. New students were, for the most part, still confused, while the veterans continued to discuss pros- pects for the coming year in terms of their past experi- ence. Boarders, on the other hand, found themselves confronted with a completely novel situation. Their number had been diminished from the 100+ of a few short years ago to a mere sixteen individuals, and they found three classrooms within the domain of their dorm. In retrospect, it was a good first day. Seniors be- came familiar with names like Miss Doggett and Mr. Rauchle and assumed an attitude of quiet confidence and anticipation destined to grow throughout the re- mainder of the year. - , - ,:.:.- , . . 5 rig P .u . b ,3 gr rf at ll -'i lf'1E sr, ',zx'- Q T gk' xi A E541 VK .,.,,m.w as Page 73 -H! SPEECH This year the speech department ini- tiated a new program through which vari- ous people were invited to give short de- scriptions of their professions and answer student questions concerning entering those professions. Lawyers, broadcast- ers, conservationists, and others partici- pated in this program throughout the year. It was the goal of the speech de- partment to enlighten the student body as to requirements for and duties of profes- sions in which, at some later date, many of them would be involved. Students learned what actual work a particular profession entails, why they should or should not get into that field, what prepa- rations are necessary for one who wants to get involved, and the average experi- ences one encounters in that particular occupation. The first speaker in the program was John Grissim, a noted Nashville attorney and past president of the Nashville Bar Association. His talk on the law profes- sion proved very informative. On Satur- day, September 25, the speech depart- ment presented a talk by Harold Bigham, a professor of law at Vanderbilt. Representatives from MBA, Hillwood, Page 74 gg .lr 1, Brentwood Academy, Hillsboro, and BGA heard his speech conceming this year's debate topic, which dealt with the jury system. Continuing in this program, Mr. John Vaughn, a Brentwood scoutmaster, pre- sented a talk in which he discussed Scout- ing and the ways in which Scouting is beneficial to the individual and the com- munity. On the whole, the student body seemed interested in his drawing of paral- lels between Scouting and the American way of life. Mr. Joe Dean, a well known former Louisiana State University basketball player and play-by-play man for the Southeastern Conference game of the week broadcast, also came to speak at BGA. His talk concerned what it takes to participate in athletics and the value of having participated with regard to later life experiences. Mr. Dean's use of both humor and sincerity combined to make one of the biggest impressions on the stu- dent body made all year. Q i Page 75 1 S Wm rj? me .F J S. VARSITY FO0TBALL In the Hrst varsity football game of the season the Wildcats appeared ready to open the season with a victory over their newly formed rival, Gallatin. The Green Wave came more prepared to play than was ex- pected, and the Cats had their hands full. Action was under Way early in the first quarter when Gallatin got on the scoreboard with the first seven points. Not to be out- done, the persistent Cats added six points to the board when Rory Ferrell connected on a 20-yard scoring aerial to Pat Ross. Late in the first quarter, with the score still 7-6, Bill Ross broke loose on a 46-yard jaunt to pay- dirt. Horton Frank added the thirteenth point to BGA's total as the iirst quarter ended. The fatal blow came in the second quarter when the Green Wave tallied their Hnal seven points. There was no more scoring for the remainder of the game, and the Wildcats succumbed to the Wave 14-13. UIQ we Page 76 N . . S i hz' fi 'QA SUB-FBESIIMAN F 00TBALL Soon after school began, the sub-fresh- man football team was organized under the direction of Mr. Brock. This was the third year of participation for BGA in the Harpeth Valley Athletic Conference. The first game was against Ensworth, a conference opponent. The Baby Wild- cats responded with a victory to start their campaign, but the 7-6 score was too close to feel confident about. The next game was against arch-rival MBA. Although Coach Brock did not have any trouble in getting his team up for the game, the Wildcats dropped a 13-7 decision. It hurt to lose to the Big Red, but, more important, it was a con- ference loss. The Baby Wildcats lost another league game to Grassland, 19-7. Next on the schedule was the lone non-conference foe of the season, Fairview. This game turned out to be a breather, for Coach Brock's team as BGA rolled 44-12. This season's record now stood at 2-2. Page 77 W fm Qtr Q, t, W , ' Q R gi S F l alt .AM Undaunted by the disappointing defeat at the hands of Gallatin, the Cats traveled to Springfield the next week to make amends for the Week before. The BGA eleven was in excellent form as early in the game Bill Ross clipped off a 45-yard score. In the second quarter, Ross again got away on another 45-yard scamper to glory. Horton Frank con- verted both touchdowns leaving the score 14-0 at the half. Things began to click even more in the third quarter when quarter- back Rory Ferrell plunged across from the one with a score. Next an- other Ross entered the picture. Little', brother Pat intercepted a stray Yellowjacket aerial and galloped 20 yards to paydirt. The last score came when quarterback Mike Mullican broke through from the Hve. The run for the conversion was successful, making the score 36-0. Springfield managed one T.D., thus ending the game at 36-6. Page 78 CMA posed no threat for the powerful Wildcats. Jim Harrison scored once on an interception and another time on a hfteen-yard pass from Rory Ferrell. A rare figure on the scoring scene, lineman Bill Moench, blocked a Bulldog punt and loped twenty-three yards to add six more points to the board. Fullback Bill Fuqua added a lot of punch to the offense as al- ways. Just before the half ended, he scored on a nine yard scamper, making the score 27-0. The second half was dominated by the Rosses in the scoring column, as Pat Ross caught a seventeen yard toss from quarterback Rory Ferrell. Bill Ross added to the cause with two scoring efforts, including an eighty-nine yard dash to cap off the evening's scoring at 47-6. Five days later, on September 22, the cross country team opened their season at McCallie. The team's inexperience, coupled with the long trip to Chattanooga, hindered the Wildcat cause, and the result was a 23-36 loss. It seemed that the easy games were never going to end as the Cats rolled into Pulaski on the 24th. The exhibition somewhat resembled a field day as Pulaski was obviously no match for the Big Blue. Bill Ross romped for Hve touchdowns, while Dennis Smithson added the sixth one. The entire team played well with the exception of a few bad plays. The line, held by Jack Lawrence and Ken Swann, consistently opened holes which enabled Bill Fuqua and Jim Harrison to have a fine night running. By he final whistle, Pulaski knew that they had met a supe- rior team. 'll ,l Page 79 i On the 29th, the cross country team jour- neyed once more to Chattanooga. This time the opponent was Baylor. Although the team showed improvement in their score, the Cats lost 24-32. Conhdent but far from home, the Cats of the gridiron ran into McCallie and their sec- ond defeat of the season. BGA could man- age only two touchdowns against the tough McCallie defense, both being Ferrell to Pat Ross passes. McCallie managed eight points in the final two minutes to pull away with a 15-14 upset. The next day brought joy to the cross country team as they traveled to Castle Heights. The Cats posted an 18-41 victory, their Hrst of the season. On October 6, the BGA harriers had their irst home meet of the season, entertaining perennial power Clarksville. Jay Nordyke finished first with a great run, but BGA still lost 21-36. 'J :jig Y 47 . . f' ,-fied? QQWY ,--' Q ' Q M ..f . MLWQQ Fi Mawwf , Anya. . . V 'wa Aff af t'sqwww ,- at f - .

The Cats came back very well from the McCallie loss. The Wildcats showed an awesome ground attack with 350 yards. Bill Fuqua and Bill Ross led in the individual yardage. Fuqua scored first on a 15-yard scamper into the end zone. Bill Ross added the other two touchdowns on two runs of 21- yards each. Horton Frank kicked the extra point on the first touchdown, while Bill Ross ran for two on the final score. The defense sparkled throughout the game. At one point in the game the defense held the threatening Vikings for four downs on the seven yard line of BGA. After finishing sixth in the David Lips- comb Invitational, the cross country team won handily over MBA and CHMA. After a return meet with Clarksville Clost, 18-45 D, BGA won over MBA and Ryan 35-47-47. In the A. B. Bridges Invitational, the Wild- cats finished sixth of twelve. I K - 4' as ..-. . - I Page 81 ww Vw FRESIIMAN FO0TBALL This year's freshman football team had a very respectable season in winning five games and losing only two. The ultimate encouragement, however, came from seeing the many talented prospects for next year's varsity. The team opened its season in ine style with a 16-12 win over an aggressive Mount Pleasant squad. Sam Greene and Skip Phipps showed up well offensively, while Dudley Casey and Mike McKinnon backboned the defense. The next outing brought another victory to the Baby-Cats. This triumph came much to the dismay of a rugged Lebanon team. The frosh had a rough time in gaining a 14-13 victory in the contest, but some fine running and passing by quarterback Greg Gunnells behind the stout blocking of Tim Davis and Bobby Bransford proved to be just what the doctor ordered. Their Hrst disappointment came at the hands of an excellent Columbia Whit- thorne eleven. The frosh just couldn't muster the eifort necessary to put down this well-coached and highly-talented foe. They looked well however in losing by the narrow margin of 14-13. Page 82 W -Q? .vtt ' t 1lpiamvewffMF X Meanwhile the sub-freshmen returned to league play by entertaining Brentwood Academy. Behind with tive minutes to play, BGA scored twice to pull out their third victory, 13-6. After two weeks of hard practice, the Baby Wildcats 'fthanked Coach Brock with a 35-7 rout of Lipscomb. The following week the Cats ran into Franklin Junior High and were completely outmanned 38-7. There was some consolation in the fact that the Rebels went on to win the HVAC. Over all, the Baby Wildcats finished with a 4-3 record. They were 3-3 in conference play, the fourth best team in the league. The sub-freshman team was an inexperienced team with a lack of size, but they overcame many obstacles. Standouts for the season were quarter- back Ken Warren, halfbacks Jay Sims and Steve Phillips, and linemen Scott Gentry, Wayne Davis, and Brad Wilson. Several seventh-graders saw action on the eighth-grade level, and Coach Brock ex- pected the likes of Steve Phillips, Keith Smith, Matt Bright, Scott Fort, Paul Pee- bles and Bill Patterson to be of great value to next year's team.

Page 84 As the speech program of guest speakers con- tinued, Mr. Allen Steele, president of the Life and Casualty Insurance Company, was invited to speak to the student body concerning the insur- ance business. Mr. Steele clearly explained thc advantages and disadvantages of such a profes- sion. Thanks to Mr. Steele, each member of the student body has been given at least some insight into'a business which is quickly growing in today's society. Mr. Ducan Calicott, from the Tennessee Bo- tanical Gardens at Cheekwood, was another indi- vidual who appeared before the student body under this program. Mr. Calicott spoke on con- servation in todayis society, and the new empha- sis on ecology in our times. Mr. Jud Collins, a well known local broad- caster from WSM in Nashville, was still another who was kind enough to participate in this pro- gram. After making several comments concern- ing several local colleges and their athletic pro- grams, Mr. Collins presented quite an interesting discussion on the broadcasting industry. His humor proved to be one of the highlights of the program. wmv In line with the precedent established last year, the National Honor Society again honored its new members with an induction ceremony. After several planning meetings, the old members decided to dispense with the physical tapping used last year in order to lend more order and dignity to this year's induction. When the day in late October arrived, Miss Doggett, the soeiety's sponsor, explained the re- quirements for membership-scholarship, leader- ship, service to the school, and faculty approval- and president Vining announced the new mem- bers, who approached the stage to receive their membership cards and oilieial welcome into the chapter. They included Jay Nordyke, Jim Ste- phenson, John Graham, Earl Vickers, and Terry McCarter. Requirements for NHS membership have al- ways been stringent, and this year's induction cere- mony was again designed to afford new members the credit and recognition they so richly deserve. I' g 6. '29 Page 85 U ,K ,W A vfgy Ll fm nt Each fall the National Merit Scholarship Corporation gives a test to all juniors who plan to attend col- lege, with the intention of awarding over 3,000 scholarships to those in- dividuals who have demonstrated their scholastic ability and a need for Hnancial aid. This year BGA was privileged to have two individu- als who fell into the former cate- gory. These two were Ed Manning and Jeff Vining. This fall it was announced that these two students had reached the classiication of semi-finalist. Two other students, Parker Wright and Mark Miller, re- ceived a Letter of Commendation for a creditable job on the examina- tion. After providing the Corpora- tion with more information and going through a waiting period of several months, Manning and Vin- ing received notification that they had been selected as finalists in the competition. fp 1, Perhaps the most traditional facet of BGA student life is the heated competition between the Greers and the Platos. This competition has his- torically been associated with the annual tug-of- war, but in recent years the rivalry has spread to other areas. In the fall of each year, the veteran members of each society meet for the purpose of choosing officers for the ensuing year. This year an innovation was introduced by coach Bobby Gentry. In previous years the two societies have met on the opposite sides of the football field and elected officers by a show of hands. This year, however, the more standard procedure of nomina- tion and vote by ballot was used and was proven much more feasible. After the older students figured out the new system, the new officers were chosen. The Greers elected Bill Ross, Bill Moench, Maben Thompson, and Steve Smith, while the Platos chose Bill Fuqua, Trey Doak, Ken Swann, and Luke Ross. Later in the year, these officers were given the important task of selecting new mem- bers from this year's new students.

N Page 88 Not only were the Greer7Plato elections held in a manner different from previous years, but also the class elections. .gcniors noticed the first indication of this change when called together during a counselling period to elect officers. In the past all class elections had been held on the same day but in different places such as the study hall or the football field. This year, however, each class held its elections on different days, be- ginning with the seniors. A second difference was noted when the members of the Honor Council, previously barred from other oilices, were allowed to be nominated as class ofiicers also. As a result of such action, three of the five senior class officers were also members of the Honor Council. A third difference was the actual manner in which the vote was taken. In the past, everyone simply voted by raising his hand for the candidate of his choice at the appro- priate time. This year, however, a secret ballot was held. Overall, these were, perhaps, the most well run and definitely the most formal class elections ever to be conducted here at BGA. It is hoped that these changes are the foundations for im- provements in class organization and student gov- ernment. This fall, as many before it, was full of many activities. This was due to the fact that all clubs and societies were organized during this initial pe- riod of the school year. The Key Club, NHS, and FCA got off to a good start toward their respective goals. The Wildcat, BGA,s school newspaper, put out its first two editions of the year. The speech program started out the fall of 1971 in fine style while covering a variety of areas. The sweepstakes win at Kingsport was probably the greatest event in BGA forensics that has happened in many years. The new speaker program initiated by the speech department was also very successful. Generally this fall saw BGA activities get off to an excellent beginning, and it was hoped that this start would carry over into the winter. Page 89 lg. Page 90 Q At the same time that these events were taking place, the varsity football team was continuing its season with a trip to Lebanon, which proved to be rather disheartening. The Cats entered the game with high hopes of a big win with which to go into the all-im- portant Murfreesboro game. Although BGA pulled a 8-6 victory, such a victory over a persistently weak Lebanon game was hardly representative of the BGA football team. Rain fell throughout the hrst half, which hurt the running and passing attack of both teams, but us particularly. All action was sluggish until a Lebanon back scored on a one yard lunge. The conversion attempt was unsuccessful, and the score was 6-0. It did not take Rory Ferrell long to bounce back by firing a fifty-eight yard scor- ing pass to Bill Ross. Ross also added the two point conversion on a run up the mid- dle. This ended the scoring for the night as the second half was little more than a mud iight. Though the conditions were bad for this game at Lebanon, there was some specula- tion that the Cats were caught looking ahead to the Murfreesboro game, The ever pow- erful Tigers were once again ranked near the top and would prove to be a formidable foe. As the frosh continued their season, they re- ceived somewhat of a breather as they faced a rather weak Fairview team. The scoring marathon did not cease until the score was a solid 44-0 victory in our favor. The entire team saw a great deal of action, and Coaches Ronnie Pritchard and Jimmy Gentry were extremely proud of their boys. The only defeat of the season came the next week at the hands of a strong Hendersonville squad. Our frosh did not make as good a showing in this game as they had in their previous defeat. There is little to say about this game except that it was a 27-0 embarrassment for BGA. The next week the stage was set for the traditional cross-town rivalry with Franklin. Both teams ran onto the iield filled with enthusiasm and animosity. When the dust cleared, BGA was on top with a distinct 10-6 win. The Battle of Franklin held to tradition with the Reb- els losing again. The season terminated with an impressive 18-6 victory over Castle Heights. Coaches Pritchard and allll' lvlh 'Li 'lst .... iv VAV. Gentry were understandably proud of the team. The season was a fine one, and each member of the squad gained valuable experience in sportsmanship as well as in the fundamentals of football. The 1971 cross country team at BGA had a fairly good year considering its inexperience. Jay Nordyke was the highlight of the season for the sec- ond straight year. He now holds the Kinnard-course record, the MBA course record, and the BGA school record. Helping J ay were Bobby Shatz, Stewart Bronaugh, Lee Grigsby, Curtis Hopper, Johnnie Pewitt, and Parker Wright. Under the able manage- ment of Rick Ball and the coaching of Mr. Colmore and Mr. Leon, the team placed a respectable fifth in the region at the end of the season. Of the 3-4 dual meet record, two of the losses were to regional champ Clarksville. Jay Nordyke qualified for the state but did not do as well as hoped. Shatz and Hopper will return next year and should provide a good nucleus for next year's squad. Page 91 On October 22, the Wildcats rolled into Mur- freesboro with high hopes for an upset against the powerful Tigers. The Rutherford County team was not in the best of moods, having had their state title hopes dampened by Gallatin the week before, 7-0. The scorc of the Murfreesboro game was not at all indicative of the team's play. Our Wildcats were simply outmanned from start to finish. We looked well in spots and our backs ran well. Considering the opposition they were confronted with, the line did a tremendous job of blocking. Bill Moench, Ken Swann, Jack Lawrence, and Maben Thompson all did creditable jobs under great pressure. Bright spots in the backfield were Jim Harrison and Bill Fuqua. These two men ac- counted for the two touchdowns. At the half the score was 24-8, but the Cats never regained their momentum and suffered a 46-14 loss. Kermit 'W Page 92 WFS The football team played one of its truly ine games against Clarksville. Everything seemed to fit together perfectly. Again the ground attack was effective and the passing proved satisfactory. The Wildcats' line performance in both these cat- egories was a direct result of the excellent line play that had been our trademark for most of the season. The result was a 21-0 score in our favor, as Clarksville was obviously no match for the '71 Wildcats. The next week the Wildcats got off to a slow start against Warren County High School in McMinnville. Things just seemed to go against us all night. There were mistakes and a seeming lack of enthusiasm. When the fourth quarter rolled around, however, the team realized that they were on the verge of an embarrassing defeat at the hands of a supposedly weak team. Late in the fourth quarter, action did an about-face and the Cats pulled out a 28-14 victory. The high- light of the evening took place when Mike Mulli- can, a native of McMinnville, intercepted anrer- rant pass and raced 30-yards to score and put the game on ice.

The year 1971-1972 will long be remembered as a school year in which the Wildcats were placed back in a position of athletic prominence in the state of Tennessee. The varsity football team of 1971 will probably be remembered most for bringing winning football back to BGA. The task of Coach Oxley and his staff has been a huge one these past two years, but they have done their job very well. Perhaps the team's hardest obstacle to overcome was the generating of support. The older students remember the humiliation of those 0-10 seasons a few years back and sincerely ap- preciate the team's giving them something to be proud of once more. The younger students do know what it is like to be rooting for a loser, so perhaps they cannot value this year's team as much as the upperclass- men. Those of us who will leave this year hope that in the future thc BGA student body will make the support of athletic teams a changeless tradition.

U . m t V IV, I :,, ..,,- 9 if Even though an opponent had not been found for BGA in the upcoming Tobacco Bowl, Mr. Herrmann did not seem worried as he kicked off the ticket sales. His inspirational speech spurred the student body on to sell as many tickets as possible. At first, selling tickets was very hard. When people asked us when the game was, we had to tell them that it was in the middle of the week. When they asked us who we were going to play, we couldnit tell them any- thing. Finally, the Sunday before the game, it was announced that we were going to play Stratford. Sales started to pick up. The local papers helped the effort by giving the game a great deal of publicity. Hopes were high, tensions were mounting, and BGA was to make its return to the Tobacco Bowl November 18. That Thursday iinally came. Classes were out Ca great occasion in itselfj. The awesome BGA caravan rolled out at 12:30 bound for Hartsville. The mile long train of cars no more than five inches apart disregarded every red light and stop signg and traffic regulations were generally ignored. The simple fact that we arrived was much to be thankful for. ix X. 4 . fb i i' ' , .,. V 3 '.. . 96:1 i fi' t - . 'f',I , ada jr? Y' Supp 'ZW Page 97 3 Page 98 TIIBACCO BOWL For the iirst time in five years, the BGA Wildcats hnished the season with enough wins to merit a bowl bid. In fact, their 7-3 record was outstanding enough among mid- state teams that they received ive such invi- tations--bids to the Butter, Blanket, Metro, Civic, and Tobacco Bowls. Having voted to select the Tobacco Bowl invitation, the team began the long wait for the selection of an opponent. The designation of Stratford to oppose the Wildcats gave the team a tempo- rary feeling of supreme conidence. While the Stratford won-loss record equalled their own, they considered the Battle Ground schedule much tougher. On Thursday, November 18, the two teams squared off under overcast and threat- ening skies, and that supreme confidence gradually faltered under the bruising attack of Stratford's larger and stronger line. The Wildcats were held to their worst statistical showing of the season. Although the of- fense moved within the Stratford 10-yard line six times, it failed to score, and Strat- ford amassed large enough chunks of yard- age on the ground and in the air to leave the Cats on the short end of a 10-0 final score. Still students and patrons left Hartsville that aftemoon with an unshaken pride in a group of young men who never gave up and took a giant step toward restoring Battle Ground football to the position of promin- ence enjoyed in previous years. was-as 1 ..... ,. ,.

Last spring Trey Doak, Bill Fuqua, Jon Kinnard, Maben Thompson, David McMillen, and Bill Ross were elected to this privilege and re- sponsibility, but late in the sum- mer, they learned their duties had been expanded. This year the Council contin- ued to act in an advisory capacity in matters of discipline. Furthermore, it met in mid-Au- gust to contribute to and ap- prove the Hnal draft of the stu- dent handbook. Later that same month, it met with all new stu- dents to explain the traditions and policies of the school and answer beginning students' ques- tions in a general orientation. Early in the fall council members were also called upon to super- vise the election of class oiiicers and once again to advise each class of the importance of good choices. sf! 1- ,.. ,, Y - . , 1. -, , -1,127.13 iff? ..r,. i ,-, , '- y ' , ,'v:'i 'f M .

This year it included as- signing articles to reporters, re- writing those articles, planning layout, cutting stencils, choosing photographs, collating and sta- pling the pages, and distributing the finished paper. The Wildcat staff covered major events of stu- dent life. This year's paper, edited by Joel Denbo and sponsored by Mr. Kuhlman returned to the mimeograph format of years past in an effort to produce more papers more quicldy and make the Wildcat a real instrument of news. The '72 staif was considerably smaller than last year's, with stu- dents assigned to specific areas of school activity throughout the m year. While many reporters' in- terest waned at the thought of losing the printed publication, others continued to work hard to bring school news to the atten- tion of the student body and at provide a medium for publishing student opinion, humor, and crit- icism.

FO0TBALL CHEERLEADERS It has been the goal of this yearis cheerleaders once again to light a spark to the latent force of the student body. Under the di- rection of Linda Berry, Mallie Hart, Deborah Thornton, Janie Dowden, Cathy Fielder, Peggy Lancaster, and Beth Stevenson plus Stewart Bronaugh, Sammy Duke, Lee Grigsby, and Charlie Little, progress was made toward the completion of that goal. As an added feature to aid school spirit, a series of pep ral- lies was initiated. With the in- spiration of the cheerleaders and the occasional support from Jeff Vining, these pep rallies proved to be fairly successful. Spirit this football season was to be much improved over previous years. Undoubtedly this year's cheerleaders had much influence on the increased support for the football team. ... ,,.......,,.....g 1. . ..,.w. 'ft . ., ...,....s- ....w.,w'fe:'::,. , ,..,w....

Although books and exams were to be a major component of this winter at BGA, there were other sides to student life which were to play an important role in the educa- tional process which is BGA. Without these other sides, BGA would only be a part of a school without any hopes of ever being whole. These other sides were to take on many forms. Many turned to such team sports as basketball, wrestling, and swimming. Others became involved in the support of these teams at each contest. Still others sought out such activities as the speech team, the Key Club, or the newspaper or an- nual staffs. Throughout those short winter afternoons, almost everyone became in- volved in some extracurricular activity. This was BGA in the winter. 5 , e ff . if X -Q il If gi is Q rssa s it f w is i r Q t ' L. ' ' X i ll 'ff . , .... ., .

It started the first Week of school with the beginning of the great amount of conditioning necessary to play the sport. Those players not out for cross country or football were inducted into Coach Cole's gweight program. When it was over, its survivors felt themselves deserving of a letter for track. The boys in the program had also helped to make the 'pgasketball locker room the showplace of Briggs ym. It was tough on everybody with a brand new coach. The players had to learn a diiferent the- ory of the game. Coach Cole had trouble with all the new names. But these problems were gradu- ally surmounted as the squad molded into the shape in which it would enter the season. November 23 arrived and with it, the first game. We played at home against Peabody. It was a typical first game marked by sloppy play, but we still walked away with a 67-36 victory. The B-team also opened its season with an- easy win? thereby initiating what was to be a very suc- cessful campaign. Page 118 QS W' 'S 1? APE K www. W -wx.. Swarm AIU' -FY 'N if L' December 11 turned into a field day for the varsity as they journeyed to Hamphsire. The Cats won 70-41, but even more impor- tant was the fact that we had won our iirst game in district play. The next game was a homecoming of sorts for Coach Cole. BGA played at Woodbury, the school at which he coached last year. His old acquaintances welcomed him with a 43-42 defeat of the Wildcats. Three days later BGA traveled to Hillsboro, Williamson County. There the Cats ran into a tenacious defense and a lightning fast break. William Billington scored a season high of 32 points, but the Indians gave us our first district loss 73-64. In the Middle Tennessee Invitational Tournament at Franklin High School, BGA was matched against Gallatin in the opening round. Poor shooting hurt us once more. Though we should have won handily, the Cats suffered their third one point loss 58- 57. Glencliif was the last opponent before the long string of district games. The weather was terrible that night, and BGA didn't play much better in losing 60-49. Our record now stood at 2-8. Page 120 - . Four days later, on January 8, Centerville arrived at Briggs Gym. They probably felt fairly confident knowing that they had as many fans at the game as we did.. However our shooting had improved as had our de- fense and the result was a 58-50 Wildcat win. Then came the annual f'Battlc of Frank- linf' The Rebels had about as poor a won- lost slate as we did, but it didn't seem to matter. Early in the second half, Steve Smith, playing his best game of the season, scored most of his 21 pointsg and BGA took command of the game. At the end of the 68-65 Wildcat victory, all of the spectators had sore throatsg but only half of them were smiling. After a long layoff over the holidays, the B-team resumed its winning ways by taking apart Centerville 76-45. Franklin was the next victim 65-55 as the B-team ran its rec- ord to 6-0. NJ. . ,...

The Cats took care of CMA 77-62, then enter- tained Hillsboro. BGA had lost Dudley Westls re- bounding but played well enough to own a three point lead late in the fourth quarter. However, the Indian full court press was too much, and we bowed to Hillsboro for the second time 67-62. Hampshire posed no problem as an 82-55 win boosted our district record to 5-2. In an afternoon game we entertained Castle Heights, who tumed out to be tougher than we expected. The contest went into overtime before the Cats finally won 62-59. At this point the B-team still had an unblemished slate. CMA was slaughtered by 44 points, 89-45. Hampshire was a little tougher but fell 63-55. In Castle Heights the B-team found another outclassed opponent and wrote it on the scoreboard 80-54. MBA's varsity then came to our place where a tough, close battle ensued. The game went into over- time. Although we dehnitely outplayed them, some lucky breaks got MBA the ball when they needed it and the Red won 79-75. Page 122 Behind by ten late in the fourth quarter, the Cats managed a 62-61 win over a scrappy CMA squad. Our play was even worse against CHMA, and we lost 65-59. At home we upset a highly favored Pu- laski team 63-49, but lost the next night to Lipscomb 56-55. After staying with Ryan for three quarters, BGA was blown out 70-50. The regular season was ended on the road by a 64-62 district squeaker over Lewisburg and a 63-51 rout of Clarksville North- west. The B-team began its stretch run by erasing a thirteen point MBA lead, and going on to beat the Big Red 59-56 in overtime. Wins followed over Be- thesda, CMA, Castle Heights, and Pulaski. The B- team then dropped its final four games, as its ranks were depleted somewhat in order to help give the varsity a larger bench. XS' J UN IOB HIGH BASKETBALL This year Mr. Brock was given one of the most exciting coaching jobs at BGA, that of coaching the seventh and eighth grade basketball team. The Baby Wild- cats closed out their season with a record of four wins and eight losses. However, this team provided many exciting mo- ments for those who watched them. Several boys were standouts during the season. These Were: Ken Warren, Wayne Davis, Brad Wilson, Tim Stewart, and Pat Clarke. Up and coming seventh graders that saw considerable action this season were Steve Phillips, Pat Robinson, Russell Buchi, Bill Patterson, and Charles Stites. Improvement and ability are in store for next season said Coach Brock. We had a good group of boys this sca- son, but next year we plan to improve our recordf' Page 124 FIIESHMAN BASKETBALL This year's freshman basketball season was filled with many difficulties. Although the season could not be called a complete success, it could not be considered a total loss either. The team could not boast of a campaign filled with great victories. However, each game proved beneficial to every player, and each member of the team felt that the hard work and preparation were well worth it. Coach Hollman did a creditable job in taking boys who had never played with each other and getting them to play as a team. The Wildcats took two games each from CMA, Hillsboro, and Be- thesda, while splitting with MBA. They lost twice to Franklin and Columbia Whitthorne. Yet, even when several key players were forced to leave the squad due to injuries and grades, the morale remained high. There is no doubt that there was an abun- dance of talent on this team. With as much de- sire as these boys had, the varsity should have some excellent seasons in the future. i a? XSS .,,,,,, K, s '1 as 9 , . . . Page 125 VARSITY WRESTLING The BGA Wrestling team began its short but rigorous season during the middle of November. The first two weeks were spent in long and hard drills in order to get the team in shape for the sea- son ahead. The season itself began on December 1, when the Wildcats took on the Tennessee School for the Blind. The team won this tirst match by the close score of 33-31. This big win in the first dual match started the team off on the right foot. Wins were also recorded against CMA, Ma- plewood, Murfreesboro, Stratford, and Clarks- ville. The Wildcats won rather handily in each of these matches. Yet the BGA Wrestling team lost seven of its dual matches. The powerful teams of Castle Heights, Pearl, Hillwood, Franklin, Nashville North, MBA, and Tullahoma gave the Cats stiff competition that helped them prepare for the re- mainder of the season. Leading the team through the season with nu- merous victories were Johnny Pewitt and Alan Duley with eight wins apiece. Bill Moench was close behind with seven. The best individual record of all, however, be- longed to David Ogilvie, who managed to remain undefeated throughout the twelve dual matches in which he wrestled. The team as a whole closed its season with a mark of six wins and seven losses. Since they didn't consider this a record which truly refiected their ability and desire, it was with great anticipa- tion they viewed the upcoming tournaments. In the first of these tournaments, the Pearl In- vitational, the team made an excellent showing, and three of its members received trophies. Tom Ritter placed first in the 98 lb. class, and David Ogilvie won the 145 lb. division, while Alan Duley took third at 155 lbs. At the Fort Campbell Tournament, only Ogil- vie won his class, but in the District Tournament, BGA placed six wrestlers in the top four positions of their respective classes. Ogilvie took first place in the 148 lb. class, while Jere and Johnnie Pewitt each finished second in the 135 and 142 lb. divisions, respectively. Alan Duley placed third in the 155 lb. class, and Bill Moench was third at 185 lbs., while Maben Thompson finished fourth in the heavyweight division. Only David Ogilvie did well enough in the Re- gional to qualify for the State Tournament. He fin- ished fourth and drew the number-one seeded wrestler in his first match. His defeat in that match and in the consolations closed the season. few Page 3 0 me 4 is , W 1- A M Qi Q,E?-'dffwgxh-TMTT7' mi J': ' . l I t ,,., SWIMMING The varsity swim team posted a 4-3 rec- ord this year including two wins each over Sewanee and Castle Heights, two losses to Baylor, and one loss to McCallie. The only losses came to the number one and two teams in the state. The first meet was at home against Bay- lor. This was lost by a score of 62-33. One event prevented BGA from winning the next meet which was with McCallie. The boys from Chattanooga slipped away with a 54-41 win. BGA got on the winning track by down- ing the next two opponents, Castle Heights and Sewanee, in two meets each. The scores of both meets were the same for each opponent, 61-32 and 74-21 respectively. Even though the team was involved with these dual meets, the swimmers were look- ing forward to the two big meets of the year. The lirst was the Southeastern Invitational Swimming Championship at Emory Univer- sity in Atlanta. Because of sickness, the team as a whole did not do well. Yet the last meet was the biggest. This was the Tennessee State High School Cham- pionship at the University of Tennessee Aquatic Center. Page 128 Hfifi 1 Our swimmers placed fourth in a field of some 40 teams. Finishing ahead of the Wild- cats were only Baylor, McCallie, and Knox- ville West. During the season, every single school rec- ord was broken. Philip Porch, Sam Wau- ford, Bob Cherry, and Gus Lott set a new record in the 200-yard medley relay. Sam Wauford broke records in the 200-yard free style and individual medley, the 100-yard free style, back stroke, and breast stroke, and the 400-yard free style. Bob Cherry bettered the old mark in the 100-yard but- terlly and Gus Lott, in the 50-yard free style. Gus Lott, Lee Sanders, John Chap- pell, and Sam Wauford also set a new record for the 400-yard free style relay. Mike Tudor, although only an eighth grader, provided the team with excellent diving throughout the season and finished fourth in the state meet. This was the best performance ever recorded by an eighth grader in that meet. f ,f , ty ilk, and . Page 129 On Friday night, December 10, BGA had its annual Christmas dance. The up- coming holidays infused the night with an added air of excitement. Photographer Bob Grannis arrived sporting a pink tux- edo and his usual cigar. The Candy Stripes from Pulaski provided music for the dancers, and Mrs. Bragg and Mrs. Akin were kind enough to supply the re- freshments. Because of the attendance of many 7th and Sth graders, the total turnout was very encouraging. Coming to dances is as much a part of school spirit as is coming to athletic events. Page 130 lm x .

' 5 ' Us ' i J Z 'Q il' This winter BGA was privileged to have as a guest speaker a former BGA student who is presently the Assistant District Attorney for the Metropolitan government of Nashville and Davidson County. Mr. Robert Schwartz, who graduated from BGA in 1963, gave BGA's seniors a most informative lecture on the rights and privileges which they will receive under the Legal Responsibil- ity Act of 1971. This statute changed the age of legal responsibility from 21 to 18. Mr. Schwartz answered questions con- cerning such pertinent questions as voter registration and criminal responsibility. The seniors left this meeting with a greater knowledge of the jurisprudence and the internal workings of the Metro- politan governmental system. The sen- iors considered themselves indeed fortu- nate to have had as a guest speaker one so well versed in the field of practicing law and government. R Q! 5 e ' New ..t. ss, .

After tryouts and a few weeks of practice, the final group of actors was chosen. The play selected was Submerged, a one act play about the crew of a submarine that had been sunk during World War II. The cast consisted of Jim Harrison, Lee Grigsby, Bobby Schatz, Tom Rutherford, Bill Mott, and Bryce Hickey. As the time of the production approached, the problem of ticket sales appeared. To boost sales, more entertainment was soughtrfor' the night that the play would be given. Mrs. Duke invited the Harpeth Hall Glee Club to perform. In addition, Tommy Parsons was successful in acquiring the services of Miss Sixteen of Nashville to do a modern dance number. Frank Puryear agreed to open the show with a few piano se- lections. During the week before the performance, the final preparations were made. Tommy Parsons, the techni- cal director, was given the job of seeing that all the nec- essary preparations were made. Theaudio equipment and lighting were installed by Gus Lott, Bob Ogles, and Bush Cole. Mitch Grissim made sure that the ticket sales went along as planned. Page 132 Finally the big night arrived. The standing room only crowd was greatly pleased by the performance of all the par- ticipants. Many favorable comments were heard after the evening's entertainment was over. Later that night at the cast party, Mrs. Duke announced that Bryce Hickey was chosen by a panel of judges as the best actor of the play. The entire night was a complete success. The ticket sales accomplished far more than expected. With the money going to the speech department, the speech and drama program at BGA was greatly aided. The profit from the ticket sales will be used for trips and expenses of the varsity speech team. Page 133 9' r M-'1 1 Meanwhile, on March l6, the NHS inducted seven new members on the basis of their first se- mesteris performance. These were Jon Kin- nard, Gus Lott, Danny Ozburn, David Buntin, Tom Ritter, C. K. McLemore, and Terry Pear- son. In a ceremony similar to that of the pre- vious fall, the student body saw these seven new members welcomed to the club and were re- minded that membership required academic ex- cellence, leadership, and service to the school. Continuing in the speech department's pro- gram of guest speakers, Paul Eells, a sports- caster for WSM in Nashville, addressed the stu- dent body concerning opportunities in his pro- fession. Mr. Eells described what was necessary to be properly prepared for this field, many of the reasons why it appealed to him, and some of the advantages of his particular job. The following week, Mr. Frank Ingraham, a noted Franklin and Nashville attorney, described one of his typical days at the oiiice and.sug- gested the type of daily work those interested in the profession of law might some day encounter. A short time later, Mr. Robert McDowell, presi- dent of McDowell Enterprises and a member of the Board of Trustees here at BGA, spoke on the profession of engineering and answered per- tinent questions on salaries and finding jobs.

K ' 1 f Throughout the winter the speech team proved its ability to win and thereby return with that magic quantity known as hardware. Under the direction of Mrs. Duke and Mr. Seaton, the success of these teams was unquestionable. In debate, the team of Horton Frank and Jeff Vining combined with the team of Mitch Grissim and Tommy Stephenson for several successful tournaments. At Memphis Whitehaven, Frank and Vining came out with a slim victory over their compatriots of Grissim and Stphenson by mere speaker points. Both teams were unde- feated. At the Barkley Forum, Grissim and Ste- phenson received honorable mention for their 4-2 record. At the Smokey Mountains Tourna- ment held in Gatlinburg, Grissim and Stephen- son were the only undefeated team through the preliminary rounds. Even though they lost in the semifinal round, they still finished third. At the Districts, Frank and Vining once again pulled off a slim victory over Grissim and Stephenson. Both teams were undefeated, therefore the deci- sion was based on speaker points. In the individual events Gus Lott was the pathfinder for BGA with first place victories at Larue County, Kentucky, Memphis White- haven, and the District. Gus also made it to the semifinals at the tough Barkley Forum. Bryce Hickey won dramatic interpretation at Larue County. Mike Haberman finished second in hu- morous interpretation at Memphis Frayser. Yet BGA's victories were not confined merely to these individuals, for the school also did well in the sweepstakes competition. It finished sec- ond at Laruc, and first at Memphis Whitehaven. The latter was the first sweepstakes win in BGA's long history. Page 135 While the debate teams were meeting with great success, the varsity basketball team entered the tournaments. This was the second season, the one that counted. In the 22nd District Tournament, BGA was ranked fourth and thus drew a young Fairview team as an opening round opponent. The Wildcats looked good in downing the Yellowjackets by a 64-46 score, but tougher opposition was to come. The Cats had earned the right to play a revenge-minded Lewisburg team which was ranked fifth in the district. Though Lewisburg proved tough, they eventually fell, 68-61. Then BGA had to play Columbia, top ranked in the district and boasting a record which included only one loss. It was in this game that the Wildcats of BGA demonstrated the potential which had lain dormant through the regular sea- son. The Cats overcame their jitters then seized the initiative by taking a ten-point lead at the half. Early in the fourth quar- ter this lead was expanded to seventeen. Although the Lions Page 136 4.7 we he 1 if vii ? Ag, t-sa valiantly fought back and at one point ac- tually took the lead, the Cats proved to be the superior squad with a resounding 75-68 victory. The upset over Columbia made the Hnals of the district with Hillsboro anticli- mactic. The Cats established an early lead, but the Indians who had beaten us twice closed the gap. However, a parade to the foul line enabled us to win going away, 71-58.

Although the Cats started slowly and were behind after the first quarter, they later breezed to a 57-47 victory. BGA was now forced to meet once again the Lions of Columbia. Those who felt that the first victory was a fluke soon had their doubts re- moved. The Cats, down by four at the half, roared back to take an eleven point lead before Charlie Little and Pat Ross fouled out. Even with such a disadvantage, the Wildcats held on to win, 73-70. Franklin was our opponent in the finals. Again our championship game proved to be anti- climactic as the Cats trounced the upset-minded Rebels 64-45. With this victory, BGA, a team predicted just to barely reach the regional tourna- ment, had swept both the district and the region. BGA thus earned the right to play in the Sub- state at U. T. Martin. We faced a tough Union City team, which had to journey twelve miles to the game as opposed to our hundred and fifty: The Cats had a bad game and went home with a 71-51 defeat. Thus ended the season of one of the proudest teams in BGA athletic history.

Because neither was able to secure a clear cut majority of votes, Mr. Herrmann had declared Joel Denbo and Maben Thompson co-presidents. The primary goal of these ohicers throughout the year was to keep the Kcy Club's basic motto, We Build,', constantly before the minds of its members, As the year progressed, the club sponsored projects including sanding study hall desks, an- nouncing basketball games and wrestling matches, and collecting Christmas gifts for needy families. To supplement funds raised from the daily sale of milk at lunch, members sold pep buttons during football and basketball seasons. As the year ended Key Club members were making plans to donate their traditional monetary gift to the school.

It is a form of competi- tion in which if one member of the team is victorious, the entire team is also. This year has had an ample number of wins not only on the in- dividual basis, but also on a team basis, the latter being a rarity at BGA. The debate teams proved their worth through three first place victories, three second place, and one third place in tournament com- petition. Gus Lott in extemp con- tinued to show his prowess in tour- naments with three first place show- ings. Mike Haberman, Bryce Hickey, Bobby Schatz, George Schneider, Tom Rutherford, and C. K. McLemore also contributed in individual events. Under the direc- tion of Mrs. Duke and Mr. Seaton, the team has been urged forward by the prospect of hardware, a com- modity which has been amply col- lected by this year's team. .f ' f -il i 55.25.fs.5E,e'1za.Leff.0ti,Hrefs.1:tin?.12.g,ME,22,?0ss2fsf CAN N 0N BALL STAFF Wright, Jimmy Graham, Tommy Woodall. This year for the annual staff was the year of the great experi- ment. Instead of following the structure of previous CANNON BALL editions, the staff decided nv., to attempt a new format-one which would cover the entire year as student life in a chronological approach. To achieve such an end, there was a need for a staff .-. sm A...-iQ,,, ig? SV willing to work hard for extended periods of time. As the year continued, many staff members entered other activities, forget- ting their commitment to the CANNON BALL, but despite these obstacles, hopes remained high for a successful yearbook. Afternoons and vacations were filled with rewriting, typing, pic- ture printing, and more rewriting. Gradually editors began to envy the business managers, who fin- ished their pages with machine- like precision. With Jeff Vining as feditor-in- chief, Ed Manning as assistant editor-in-chief, and Mr. Kuhlman as sponsor, the optimism of youth merged with the experi- ence of age. Shortly after se- mester exams rumors began to iiy that the CANNON BALL was seriously behind schedule, yet even after missing the first few deadlines, the staif did finally manage to make the most impor- tant deadline of all, the final one, although part of the spring vaca- tion was required to do so.

At the beginning of the year, the membership elected Jeff Vining as president, John Chappell, as vice- president, and Don Lorenzo as secretary-treasurer. Under their leadership and also under the spon- sorship of Miss Doggett in her Hrst year as the faculty sponsor, the chapter has made as its primary ob- jective the attempt to place the NHS in its proper position in the school, to make being a member of the NHS a true honor. In the ex- tent of the year, progress was made toward the completion of that goal. With the new members, Jay Nor- dyke, John Graham, Jim Stephen- son, Earl Vickers, and Terry Mc- Carter, it is hoped that the NHS will continue to make progress in its at- tempts to achieve its goal. :- i , ...rig ,,..

SUCIAL COMMITTEE It was the function of this yearis social committee to plan the dances which were held here at BGA. This year's committee was com- posed of last yearls junior members and those new members who were elected at the beginning of this year. The social committeeis responsi- bilities were numerous. Money had to be raised. Decorations had to be bought and put up. The eveningls entertainment had to be selected and contracted. Probably the com- mitteeis biggest job was to recruit enough people to get all of these things done. All of these things had to be done for both of the BGA dances, the Christmas and Com- encement Dances. The student body sincerely appreciated the work that the social committee did to ad- vance the social activity at BGA. , assi Page 145 5 4 ,Ls 5, f A 1 , .2 Z, L,,.: , .,, in is 1 4 J at 34 A 3'1 f 47 W JW? so 1 -1 1 . 1.-B.. : 4 Left to Right: Jim Parrish, Jim Harrison, Drew Shillinglaw, Lee Grigsby, Dudley West, William Billington Pat Ross, Ricky Alexander, Charlie Little.

These matches included a win over Ensworthg a forfeit from Franklin Junior High, and losses to MBA, Lipscomb, and Grassland. At the close of the season, the team entered the HVAC Tour- nament, much more experienced and hungry for victory. The baby Cats placed Dan Elcan, Robert Schneider, George Rag- land, and Dixon Witherspoon in the Hnals of their respective weight classes. As the finals drew to a close, Elcan gained first place in the 98 lb. class, and Schneider, Witherspoon, and Ragland all took second place for their efforts. The team tied with Lipscomb for third place in the tournament. -Q. w2?mS?fS52:, If ,Q-Q-, - ' --rf '--If ' C 1425? bib' , i U' '3 f,'3 :iiie:fX-1-miillii, i:,E:. 7 12.1 ,. - -uzsvlzf -:r1?::'.S fill ,ii , it ' , ,M ,, , ,, , ,, , M, N, x Z- K f- fx if-N , - ,e -f,f 1- I p I - - . - , f 1- KAIV K A- ,wr N 'wif -l ,. f' ii... --f ,.

In order to inspire those individuals who comprised the team, Linda Berry, Mallie Hart, Deborah Thornton, Janie Dow- den, Cathy Fielder, Peggy Lan- caster, and Beth Stevenson plus David McMi1lcn, Bill Moench, and John Talton were elected to keep the fans cheering through- out the season. At times this job seemed im- possible. On many occasions the BGA side of the stands was almost bare. During these times especially, it was the cheerlead- ers who supplied the inspiration necessary to spur the team on- ward. By tournament time, the situa- tion had reversed itself. The student body began to come out in full force to support the team, and spirit reached proportions reminding many of those years in which BGA was noted for the manner in which it backed its athletic teams.

For the seniors spring means that graduation is approaching and college will soon become a- reality rather than a dream. For the oth- ers it means that there soon will be a three month rest period before they must start a new school year over again. v D 1 ,,, Y L X 2 3 A Q f Xi, 2 f H gf- V ,ff F f For those who did not succumb til the very last to spring fever and all of its wiles, the worlds of golf, tennis, baseball, or track became daily realities. For others prepara- tions were made for the Jamboree or the Commencement Dance. Yet the spring was centered around the classroom. Through these activities the aura of optimism could be sensed.

GBEEBS Each year the student body is di- vided into two rival societies, the Greers and the Platos. These two societies were developed in an at- tempt to heighten school spirit through intrascholastic competition. In the past this competition has taken many forms, yet this year saw a lack in such activities. This year's competition took place in only two areas, the ticket sales for the Jamboree and the tug-of-war. In both of these areas the Greers proved their superiority over the Platos and hoped that they could maintain this mastery through an- other year. Similarly the Platos were laying plans to overthrow this dominance by the Greers. 1 Left to Right: President Bill Fuqua, Secretary-Treasurer Ken Swann, Sergeant-at- Arms Luke Ross, Vice-President Trey Doak. The only other activity of any sig- nificance was the selection of new members. In February the OEICCIS of the two societies met in secret to place each new student and faculty member in one of the societies. The process was so designed to provide for an equal number of Greers and Platos. The general consensus was that the Platos re- ceived the better students, but the Greers received the better teachers. ven though competition was held o a minimum this year, this spring demonstrated the full impact of the Societies as the tug and following wim meet slowly approached. we PLATIIS . X Page 161 Page 162 is -If -..4.'.a .L.. Eiga Beneath the glow of athletic and social activities, each school must be evaluated in terms of the fuel which gener- ates that glow. Here, as elsewhere, it was the student body which provided this energy and enthusiasm. The six classes enrolled at Battle Ground Academy were here by choice, as the result of successful academic competition. The degree of pride which each one felt in being a part of this institution shaped every academic, athletic, and social success during the entire year. A school is the sum of its parts, and those parts are its individual classes.
