URSA MAJOR Volume 8 1976 Expressions Bethel High School 1067 Big Bethel Hoad Everyone expresses himself in a different way. The student uses his head. The athlete uses his head and his hands. The artist, re- gardless of his art, uses his head, hands, and heart. Then surely we must all be artists for we put so much heart into everything we do.

Governor Jimmy Carter of Georgia struggled to estab- lish a name for himself as a Democratic can- didate. Although other candidates were more widely known, Carter’s nomination appeared to be a certainty as the Democrates headed for their convention in New York. A hotly-contested Republican race found former actor Ronald Reagan once again in the spot light. Incumbent Gerald Ford felt con- stant pressure from Reagan as the two Repub- licans fought for the nomination. Unlike the wide range of Democratic possibilities, only Reagan and Ford competed for their party’s bid at the Presidency. 4 introduction m a As Vice-President Nelson Rockefeller looks on, Gov- ernor Mills Godwin introduces French President D’Es- taing at the dedication of the Yorktown Victory Center.

The violence of the 60’s which resulted in the deaths of John Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, and Martin Luther King threatened the sec- urity of the President. Lynette Fromme, a member of Charles Manson’s “family,” and Sara Jane Moore both attempted on separate occasions to assassinate Gerald Ford. i introduction 7 8 introduction As teachers in Boston and Delaware went on strike, Governor Mills Godwin announced a 5 per cent reduction of basic state aid to schools. Funds for special programs were re- duced, and the use of layreaders in the sec- ondary schools was abolished. Meanwhile, women coaches testified in the U.S. District Court in Newport News in a $100,000 sex dis- crimination suit against the Hampton School Board. Students remembered Martin Luther King’s birthday with a special program in the lecture room. In observance of the Bicentennial, Revolutionary costumes were worn during Spirit Week. Throughout the Peninsula, Bicentennial activities were planned, cul- minating with a large fireworks display at Fort ' Monroe on July 4. introduction 9 10 emotional Being a chairman for Homecoming meant alot to me. It meant participating in elections, dances, parades, pep rallies, and football games. Meeting friends and decorating cars and the stadium are what I enjoy doing. Being a chairman of one of the events most meaningful to my friends shall never be forgotten. Since I like to be active and busy in all my endeavors, I feel that being a part of Homecom- ing helped me ac- complish that goal.

Whether it was voting for the queen, dressing as a baby Bruin or wearing a Bicentennial costume, each student was given the opportunity to be involved in the Homecoming. Climaxing Spirit Week was the annual parade, involving 31 cars. Clubs and classes decorated trucks and cars for the procession from Bethel to Darling Stadium. As helium-filled balloons were released during halftime, Miss Ilse Studenroth was announced queen. Mak- ing the event even more memorable, the football team won the first Homecoming game in three years.

In the fall “Bad Seed had the biggest audience the club had ever entertained. The play suggested that criminal tendencies can be passed from one generation to another. Terry Radvany played Rhoda, the “bad seed,” and Lennie Tierney played Leroy, the handy man who sus- pected Rhoda of several mysterious murders. Alan Richardson and Teri Hal- linger were the student directors. In “Up the Down Staircase,” the spring play, the problems faced by a New York high school teacher as she strove to change the system were presented. Leslie Jones portrayed the teacher, Miss Sylvia Barrett, and Jeff Friesz was Joe Ferone, a student who caused Miss Barrett unnecessary trou- ble. This play was directed by Randy Bishop and Barbara Kehoe and had the cast of 34 people. Accidentally, Len Tierney splashes water on Terry Rad- vany; Lee Flood and Ann Schy look on.

Through the unending fervor of Student Chairman Wayne Sommer, Mr. Michael Tylavsky, and Mrs. Susan Davis, this contribution was the largest in the school’s history. The money was raised through the efforts of thirty-two enthusiastic teachers and the entire stu- dent body. Providing entertainment during the assembly were the choral, band, and the drama students. Never has the true spirit of Christmas been as unselfishly shared as it was in this Christmas gift.

After an introduction by Master of Ceremonies Dick Lamb, the contestants modeled their evening gowns which was the last form of competition before the ten semi-finalists were announced. The ten young ladies performed their talent. From the semi-finalists the judges chose five finalists. Entertainment during intermission was provided by David and Mike Cowan. Then the five finalists were an- nounced. As the anxiety grew, each finalist answered a question for the judges. After the judges deliberated, se- nior Kim Cooper was crowned Miss BHS.

After hours of preparation, the big day for the Junior Class finally arrived. On March 6, the juniors and their dates gathered in the cafeteria to celebrate the receiving of their class rings. Providing music for the occasion was Harvest. Re- freshments of cookies, punch, and a cake decorated especially for the eve- ning were enjoyed by each of the guests.

For the first time the prom was held at the Hellenic Community Center which proved to be the ideal setting for the affair. The hall was decorated with stars hung individually from the high ceiling. Candles and flowers were on every table. Entertainment was pro- vided by Harvest. As the evening came to a close, seniors and their guests re- ceived champagne glasses with green and gold ribbons tied around them. Printed on the ribbons was the prom theme “Forever Came Today.” Senior Alvin Tazwell pours a drink for his date during a break. senior prom senior prom 25 Memories Theme For Seniors’ Night “Memories” was the theme of the 1976 Class Night held on May 27.

However, in an attempt to make Baccalaureate more meaningful, separate services were held at the individual schools on the Sunday preceeding graduation. Mr. Donald J. Montague was the guest speaker for the program held in the auditorium. Mr. Montague served as Bethel’s first prin- cipal. The Reverand Thomas Jones gave the Invocation, followed by a selection by the band. After Mr. Montague’s message, the Bruin Singers presented a selection. The Benediction was given by Reverand Mathew Winder. I 30 baccalaureate Bishop, James Class Speakers Graduation excercises were held on June 10 at 8:00 p.m. in the Coliseum. Senior Class President Mathew Winder welcomed the families and guests of the 483 members of the Class of 1976. Fol- lowing a selection by the band, Thomas James and Randy Bishop presented speeches to their classmates. The two speakers were chosen by the top 5 per cent of the Senior Class. After the dip- lomas were awarded by Mr. Gillikin, the Alma Mater was played by the band. The graduates recessed only two hours after the excercises had begun.

A select few choose to express them- selves on the ath- letic fields. The playing fields of Be- thel High School have enabled me to enhance my physi- cal abilities, de- velop coordination, and increase my mental and physical discipline. Most of all, sports permit me to show the type of pride I have. Pride that comes through exerting ef- fort, whether win- ning or losing — the pride of knowing that you did your best.

With the defensive team ranked third in the state, the Bruin football squad held their opponents to a total of 42 points. Only 14 points were scored against the defense. With a 7-3 record the team found themselves statistically superior to each opponent. A team with the highest po- tential, Coach Kozlowski felt plagued by “an inexperienced offense. Another setback was that our speedy offense was not geared to playing in the rain. In- clement weather was a hindr- ance throughout the season. Two All-Americans were named from the Bruin team, Lionel Jordan and Marion Gale. Playing football was, according to Lionel Jordan, a great expe- rience.” Varsity Football 7-3 BETHEL 14 York 0 BETHEL 56 Pembroke 0 BETHEL 45 Kecoughtan 13 BETHEL 7 Tabb 0 BETHEL 17 Denbigh 7 BETHEL 14 Ferguson 0 Bethel 0 LAFAYETTE 6 Bethel 3 MENCHVILLE 6 BETHEL 35 Warwick 7 Bethel 3 HAMPTON 7 36 varsity football mmmmm ■■HOB VARSITY FOOTBALL — Front row: Dwayne Thomas, Winston Johnson, John Hutcheson, Richard Hall, Thomas Laubscher, Michael Robinson, Jimmy Leach, Michael Bellamy.

A serious lack of height held the Bruin basketball squad at a disadvantage the entire season and kept them from being a threat for the championship. However, despite the lack of tall men, the outfit hung close to the pacesetters. Then the odds caught up with the group and the taller Hampton and New- port News teams started taking advantage. If Richard Hall, Jerry Holmes, or Robert Hott fell into foul trouble, Howard Mitchell, Oliver Prescott, or Tilghman Williams shouldered the task of replacing them. The hustle from these three was not enough to counter the deficit in height. varsity basketball 45 Plagued by a lack of agres- siveness and a lack of control on the boards, the junior varsity basketball team compiled a sea- son’s record below .500. How- ever, outstanding play came from David Johnson, Gregory Blake, and Wayne Stewart. Blake was high scorer with a 12 point average per game. Out- standing rebounder David Johnson pulled down an average of 9. 1 rebounds per game and was the second leading scorer. Johnson received the Most Valuable Player award.

Few, if any, of the young women had ever faced serious competition of the caliber of their opponents. Their toughest competition came from Fergu- son and Hampton, followed by Pembroke and Lafayette.

The team finished third in the district competition, second in the district tourna- ment, and eighth in the regional tournament. The team also posted the lowest score in the district. Ricky Wilmouth, Mike Bryant, David Crumpler, and Dale Crumpler posted a 286, shooting 70-71-72-73 respective- ly. At the end of the season Ricky Wilmouth was presented the Most Valuable Golfer award.

Bruger observes, JROTC cadets pass in revue. I once had the idea that school was just a place where you learned the three r’s. Then, I discovered that there was more. School is full of student-governed organizatons, some small and some large. All filled with people like myself, some very interest- ing who enjoy doing helpful things in their free time. I wised up and joined the Key Club, Spanish Club, and tennis team. All I needed was the ambition. David Carmines Cooperation cooperational 73 Performance All-City Concerts and the Christmas assembly were only three of the performances in which the A ' Cappella and En- semble choirs were involved. They also performed a Christ- mas Cantata at Bethany Meth- odist Church which in turn do- nated $111.85 on behalf of the Choral Department to the Christmas fund for the Sarah Bonwell Hudgins Center. Twenty-eight students were chosen for Regional Chorus which met in Williamsburg in the winter. Five of those stu- dents went on to participate in All-State Chorus which per- formed at Hampton High School in May. Those students were Marcia Gray, Wanda Bris- tow, John Hutcheson, Tammy Simmons and Frank O ' Neal. Composed of 82 members, in- cluding the majorettes, the Marching Band appeared at all home football games and the annual Phoebus Day Parade. A smaller group, the Pep Band, performed at away games. For the first time the band had its own Band-Parent Orga- nization. Composed of 20 mem- bers, they supported the band in any way possible. Class socks and candy were sold to raise funds. The Concert Band held its annual Winter and Spring Con- certs. Membes also appeared in the All-City Band in December. Twenty-five students belonged to the All-City Senior Band. Se- niors Bill Robinson and John Deavers were honored by the Virginia Bicentennial Band. 74 a’capella band 75 n Enthusiasm was the key force that motivated the German Club. The club members par- ticipated in the school-wide candy sales. A party was held at the home of their sponsor, Mr. Araujo. Bowling, skating and eating pizza were favorite ac- tivities of the German Club members. They attribute much of their success to the involve- ment of their sponsor. Dinner was served at the home of sponsor Mrs. Welch to initiate the school year for the French Club. The group con- sisted of fourteen members. During Foreign Language Week French students sang at Col- iseum Mall. At the end of the year a picnic was held to ce- ment the friendships among club members. 76 french german clubs FRENCH CLUB — Front row: Randy Bishop. Glenda Whitaker, Kelly Beck. Mrs. Welch.

Interest in Spain and the Spanish culture was shared by Spanish Club members. Even though the study of Spanish was not a prerequisite for member- ship, most students had taken at least one year. The weekly meetings were conducted in En- glish so everyone could partici- pate. Early in October, the club en- tered a car in the Homecoming Parade. Decorated as a bull, the car was awarded second place. Darlene Capps was sponsored by the Spanish Club in the Miss BHS Pageant. The night before taco sales were held, the mem- bers got together and made the tacos so that they would be fresh for the next day. Dressed in togas, the Latin Club members attended the Latin Banquet held at Phoebus High School. Bethel had the greatest number of students in attendance at the city-wide gathering. Traditional Roman food was served and “chariot races’’ in boxes were held.

Projection Small but active, the Audio- Visual Club was taught the op- eration of all A.V. equipment. The major activity of the club was the taping of sporting events and plays. Members visited WVEC-TV and Radio in Hampton. They saw how a studio is set up, how the cameras operate, and how to create some special effects. Meeting celebrity “Sandy the Clown’’ was the highlight of the trip. Learning the techniques of running a library. Library Club members carded, shelved and stamped books. Selling doughnuts for the Sarah Hud- gins Christmas fund, supporting National Library Week, and sponsoring a student for Boys- Girls State were the ways the Library Club members were in- volved in school activities. Trips were taken to Richmond to see the play Emperor Jones, and to New York. av library clubs Strategy Second place was awarded to both the affirmative and nega- tive sides of the Debate Team. Their placement in District sent them to the Regionals. The Debate Team partici- pated in four invitationals against Tabb, Kecoughtan, Warwick, and Manchester High School in Richmond. Bethel and Kecoughtan worked together on a demonstration debate at the Coliseum Mall. Competing in the Peninsula High School Chess League, the chess team won all matches for a 10-0 record, capturing the league title. Members were Joel Ar- rington, David Porter, Mike Kassel, Glen James, Barry Spigel, Mike Reynolds, and Leon Owens. Advisor Mr. Maring stated, “Four of our five players were seniors.

FBLA members collected money outside of the Omni Hotel in Norfolk and presented their donation to rep- resentatives from the March of Dimes telerama. A spaghetti di- nner and a breakfast at the Holiday Inn were held. Sixty of the sixty-four members attended the breakfast which was the most well-supported activity of the year. An interest in teaching as a profession unified the Future Teachers of America. Members devoted their time to planning the Teacher of the Year elec- tion. A preliminary voting was held to determine the six most popular teachers. Final elec- tions were conducted in April, Teaching Career Month. Mr. Cutler was chosen Teacher of the Year. A luncheon was served to the administrators and six finalists by the FTA. fta 83 FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA — Front row: Michelle Haltiwanger.

The members participated in exhibi- tions and a workshop at Old Dominion University for Lead- ership Development. Officers attended seminars to further ac- quaint themselves with par- liamentary procedures. Trick or Treat bags for the children at the Virginia School for the Deaf and Blind were made by the Future Homemak- ers of America. Other philan- thropic activities in which the FHA was involved were the Baptist Orphanage and the adoption of a needy family at Thanksgiving. 84 fha •W 7 T INDUSTRIAL ARTS CLUB — Front row: Mr. Benson.

The J.V. squad was awarded a first place trophy for their performance of the camp cheer and an original cheer. Participating in pep rallies with the entire school body provided an opportunity for the cheerleaders to spark the interest and enthusiasm needed by the teams. junior varsity cheerleaders 87 Service KEY CLUB — Front row: Wayne Sommer, Robert Carmines, Alan Mayberry, Bobby Hott, Jeff Deel, Mike Carter, John Hutcheson, David Carmines, Mr. Pierpont.

Baby Bruins and bunnies made by the Keyettes were sold to raise money to support projects. Cleaning the parking lot, ushering at the Miss BHS pageant and at graduation, and selling concessions at basketball games were ways chosen by the young women to serve their school. A Kidnap Breakfast was held to initiate new members. Stu- dents who had been selected for membership were taken by sur- prise from their homes. A spring banquet and a Founders’ Day breakfast were enjoyed by the Keyettes. Because of good participation from the members, the Key Club achieved more than its main function of service to the school. The Key Club reached out into the community, holding bingo parties at the Veterans Hospital and parties for under- priviledged kindergarten chil- dren. Such activities as collect- ing for charities and clean up pro- grams rounded out their projects. A city-wide volleyball tour- nament was sponsored in March with Key Clubbers and Kiwa- nians from all over Hampton participating. At the installation of new officers in April, presi- dent Wayne Sommer was named “Key Clubber of the Year.” KEYETTES — Front row: Barbara Kennedy, Helen Marcopoulus, Cindy Terry, Ilse Studenroth, Helen Dakis.

Li Troubador staff members Michelle Nor- ton and Marianne Zavada sort material for their annual edition. | A handful of hardworking students and one English teacher banded together one au- tumn afternoon for the purpose of creating an addition to Bethel ' s news media. Naive and inexperienced, they proceeded in the next nine months to pro- duce a newsmagazine worthy of the Bethel name. The Bethel Review staff, with cooperation from FBLA typists and Mr. Tylavsky, salesperson par excellance, cranked out , issue upon issue — never with- | out a hitch — but always consis- tantly. It was a measure of the staff s worth that, starting with no ex- perience, they put out a product of which they were proud. Staff members of The Troubador began working early in the year to organize the pub- lishing of the literary magazine. Information was distributed to music, art, and English teachers to urge them to have students with special writing and drawing skills submit material for con- sideration. Patrons were sol- icited and candy bars were sold at Christmas to help cut the printing costs. As the deadline drew near, staff members selected the material to be in- cluded in the magazine and began designing the layouts. In April, The Troubador was dis- tributed to the patrons and stu- dents who had placed advance orders. bethel review 91 Entertainment Activity was the big word for the Drama Club. Involvement was high and participation was nearly one hundred percent. The club presented two full length plays “Bad Seed” and “Up the Down Staircase.” Ap- pealing to audiences of 700 every night, both productions enjoyed record-breaking crowds. The annual patron drive was conducted to help fi- nance the productions. In May drama students travel- led to New York City. They dined at Sardi’s and enjoyed the plays on Broadway. The climax of their activities was the Awards Banquet. The best Actor Actress, Student Direc- tor, Versatile Male Female, and Best Thespian awards were voted by the club. An honorary organization, the International Thespian Society requires that a drama student acquire 250 hours of work in drama before he may be consi- dered for membership. For every 10 hours above the first 250, a student gets a star. At 600 hours, a member becomes an “Honor Thespian,” which is the highest honor one can at- tain. Thespian troupe 290 directed the Christmas skits with assis- tance from Drama Club mem- bers. New inductees were re- quired to take a test, put on a skit, and “beautify” the audito- rium before their induction at the Drama Club Banquet. DRAMA CLUB — Front row: Mike Winters, Crystal Nicholson.

One reason this statement was true was because the young women and men worked harder than ever, practicing three hours a day, six days a week. A dance workshop was held at Jefferson Davis Junior High School. Three recitals with Bicentennial themes were presented at Cooper, Philipps, and Magruder Elementary Schools. The troupe travelled to Langley Air Force Base, Nor- folk State College, Cristopher Newport College and the Vir- ginia School for the Deaf and Blind. Adding sparkle and spirit to games and pep rallies, the ma- jorette squad was led by squad-head Sherry Hinnant and co-head Denise Wilson. The ma- jorettes met twice a week during the summer for practice, and they attended a summer camp at Hampton High School. As a recreational break, they enjoyed a picnic at Newport News Park. As the year wore on problems developed for the squad and the majorettes were not able to function as effectively as the squad had hoped. The most im- portant factor in group success, according to sponsor Mrs. Goodwin, was “discipline, but more importantly self- discipline.” modem dance club 95 Rewinding the tape, Jenny McKinney prepares to listen “Good morning and welcome to the Bruin Broadcasting Com- pany.” This statement was heard throughout the year on WVEC radio as the Bruin Broadcasting Company in- formed listeners of the activities at Bethel. The BBC presented the total picture with interviews with athletes and features on performing groups and clubs. Announcer Jonathan Washington stated, “I really learned a lot and gained quite a bit of broadcasting experience.” 96 radio club Sponsoring the Fall and Spring Road Rallies and the spring camping trip gave the Science-Math Club the oppor- tunity to work together on weekends as well as school days. Members enjoyed a spaghetti dinner at the home of Cindy Sleeper. During National Education Week the club set up a booth at Coliseum Mall. Par- ticipation dropped and club member Jerome Thomas be- lieved that “the club had a good foundation and could have been built up.” RADIO CLUB — Front row: Denise Wilson, Tammy Minehardt, Karen Justice, Connie Haywood, Tamra Roberts.

AFS sponsored their first di- nner membership drive. Mem- bership increased due to this drive conducted in October. Members work on Tuesday and Thursday selling coffee and baked goods to the Thomas Nelson Community College stu- dents attending classes at Be- thel. Lack of student participation was a deterrent to the National Honor Society. President Thomas James stated, “The people really were not moti- vated.” Senior Jimmy Adams added, “It was really hard for us to get together. It seemed that everyone was involved with so many other activities.” The NHS members took part in the school-wide candy sale. CUlllU Baby Ruth nhs 99 . With an enrollment of 180 cadets, the Junior Reserve Of- ficers Training Corps supported school functions by marching at football games. Drill teams per- formed at halftime during Homecoming and the Hampton game. The Brigade marched in local parades, including the Phoebus Day Parade. Field trips to Forts Eustis and Lee in Virginia and Fort Bragg in North Carolina provided an insight to the military. Drill Teams won acclaim in competi- tion with the Female Team win- ning first place award at the Hampton Institute ROTC Day. The annual Army Inspection went exceedingly well, accord- ing to Col.

Involvement Beginning with the orientation ceremony for sophomores, the Student Cooperative Associa- tion continued striving for the success with which they became associated. A medium for stu- dents and faculty to communi- cate, the SCA governed student activities. Spirit Week, Home- coming, the Christmas Holly Ball, the Christmas Project and assembly for Sarah Bonwell Hudgins, and the Miss BHS Pageant were the major projects undertaken by the SCA. Spon- sor Mr. Tylavsky stated that the SCA had “good officers who turned out a good Homecoming and a good Miss BHS Pageant. “On the whole, I think that we met all of the important goals, but the SCA lacked a very im- portant and necessary part — student involvement by and through the SCA representativ- es.” Candidates for Sophomore Class offic- ers make themselves available for stu- dent questions.

Enthusiastic and eager, the Ursa Major staff was composed entirely of novices. Yet their d esire to work hard and put out a yearbook they could be proud of was evident im- mediately. Beginning with the sell- ing of ads and the designing of the cover, the staff worked after school as well as on the week-ends until the last material was sent to the publisher during the summer. The 1976 edition of Ursa Major was designed by Kenny Cook. The cover and all layouts were his crea- tions. John Hutcheson did the graphic work and set the headlines.

Coming back to school held more in store for me than I though it would. I am SCA special events chairman and this is a very involv- ing job. Most of my spare time is taken up with homecoming, Christ- mas projects, and school activities. Other than SCA work my next most important job in school is yearbook. I have had to spend a lot of my af- ternoons selling ads. I anticipate that the work will get harder as the year goes on. Being involved means work, but the outcome is worth the input.

DAVID BROOKS Nearing the End Here I sit in the solitude of my own subconscious, thinking back to the day when it all began, twelve years ago. All that remains of that day is a hazy image of a little girl, with tears in her eyes, facing a strange, new, and unexplored world of seem- ingly monstrous buildings containing a maze of corridors and doors. Gradually, the tearful face fades and becomes a happy im- age, surrounded by other smiling faces. Time passes, the scenes change, there are new faces and new surroundings. The once frightened child who was only able to print her name, is now hard at work writing her 8-year-old autobiography in her neatest cursive handwriting. Suddenly, she is no longer the tiny, shy child of twelve years before, she is on the brink of adulthood. She has reached the ultimate goal, the goal every child dreams of but does not truly understand, she is a Senior! Somehow, through those twelve years of tears, work, disappointments, and boredom, I wonder . . . Why does it have to end so soon?

Full of excitement, Kim Cooper, along with her escort David Hobbs, is introduced as a finalist for Homecoming seniors Special! Homecoming is a special game for seniors and those good-looking girls who are in the Homecoming Court. A special time for a guy who buys his girlfriend a flower and is with her during the game and everybody notices you and says “Hey, isn’t he sweet.” Not only is it special for a guy and girl, but for those girls of the Homecoming Court who are so tense and nervous and say, “No I am not going to win; I am not pretty enough.” When halftime gets there, the truth will be known. Win or lose they all are very pretty and should win. Fletcher Whitley ANNE VERONICA COLLIGAN Sociology Club 11; French Club 10,12; Pep Club 10; JV Volleyball 10 . GREGORY ANTHONY CONNER ICT 10.

DONNA DAVIS If you’ve ever been to a hockey game, whether it was being played by our Hampton Gulls or any other team, you probably enjoyed it. But did you realize all the work involved? Sure, it takes practice and perse- verence to coordinate mind and body among the team members, but that is only on the surface. Behind every team there is a sort of central force that gets the ball rolling, or the puck flying, as the case may be. This stimulus is the Booster Club. Angela Cooper, a Bethel senior, is on the Executive Board of this organization. They throw birthday parties for the team members and have seasonal get-togethers, such as Christmas Parties. Angela, youth coor- dinator for the team, is in charge of fund raising ac- tivities. She is the initiator of car washes, parties, and the selling of programs. Her other activities include working at the Souvenir Booth, and helping plan for the painting of the colorful signs that surround the ice at each game. The little quips on each sign range from “Hampton, Home of Hockey” to “We love our Gulls, we think they’re nice. So don’t throw !? on our Gulls’ ice.” Angela adds, “Being on the Executive Board has given me a great number of opportunities, especially to work with the players and get hockey off the ground in Hampton.” Michelle Norton 1 14 seniors Pucks Flying DOROTHY DAVIS JUDY DAVIS LINDA SUSAN DAY SCA Representative 10; FBLA 11,12; COE 12.

We run to our loc- kers and grab the two large textbooks and our very large notebooks. We rush past the guidance and atten- dance offices. Phew! Here we are, room 120. Taking a few brisk mo- ments to study, we wonder why we must be tortured this way. The pap- ers are passed out and, afte r an hour of mind-searching, we turn in the test. We have journeyed through a muddle of striated muscle tissue, a loose femur humerus, skull and crossbones of the skeleton, the fetal pig’s intestinal tract, genetic tracing for a family of nine children, and the DNA model. We have Mrs. Trent to thank for guiding us. She makes physiology in- teresting and challenging. I open my report card. It’s an A! I actually did it!

My advice to all students is never graduate. It is just too expensive. These costs begin to mount up. The school ought to start its own loan company. It would make a killing! Mike Carter 118 seniors At First • • Being a senior is a really great feeling especially when you first become one. You get the feeling that your are it, number one, until you find out how expensive it is to be a senior. You have to buy your ring, your pictures, cap and gown, and announcements of your graduation. This is just a part of it. You really go into the hole when the prom comes. First you gotta rent your tux. Then you have to buy your tickets for the prom. You have to take your date to a fancy restaurant plus you have to buy her a corsage. At the end of it all, when you ' re sit- ting in the Coliseum waiting for them to call your name to come up and get your diploma, you think back and you ask yourself if it was all worth it. The answer is yes. No matter how many times you might have thought that it wasn’t. Steve Bocrie MARK STEVEN GAILEY Band 10,11.

Participating in the C.O.E. program has been the most memora- ble. With great help from Mrs. Wyn- der, I learned how to compete in the business world as a clerk-typist. Achieving true on-the-job experience that will ready me for my life after high school, and getting paid for it! C.O.E. taught me to apply the En- glish, math, and business that all of my teachers at Bethel have tried so hard to cram into my head.

With success comes many pressures and with the pressures comes the need to escape. Being one of the top football players in the state is no exception and Marion Gale is one of those players. Although he was handicapped with a strained Achilles’ tendon, his senior season was one of his best. “Football is everything to me,’’ said Marion. He has a dream, to one day be a profes- sional football player. He feels he has a long way to go, yet he has obtained a scholarship from N.C. State. Marion said he wanted a good education first and then he would get into football. “When you are on top people expect you to be on top all of the time,” he said. To escape from the pressure to remain successful, Marion works on drawings or paintings. That is how he gets away from it all, by putting his true feelings down on paper. On March 21, Marion won second place in the art category of Omega Psi Phi ' s talent search. “That’s the first time I’ve ever won anything for my drawings,” he said with a smile. He keeps his art work in his room at home, and that room is full of feeling. Denise Edwards V f rx 122 seniors Smiling. Marion Gale displays his award-running artwork.

It seems you’ve spent all your life in the security of school not realizing what’s behind those blue doors. The thought of graduating scares some and yet excites others. It gives you a place to step up from toward the goals that you have set. Those who have gone through school not preparing for their future may find it hard living and coping with our society. This is the time when you realize that we all are not going in the same direction any more. Individual interests and ambitions take over. Your sense of responsibility and self- determination are measured from here on be- cause it’s all up to you now.

ROBERT LEE JONES JROTC. STEVE JONES VERNADEAN JONES COE Endless Enigma Being involved in sports at Bethel has become a major part of my life. On August 10, the long, grueling football practices began. Day in and day out, the same routine is followed: prac- tice, practice, practice, game, practice, practice, practice, game. It seems like an eternity of practice. When the football season finally ends, winter rolls around and its time for indoor track. Indoor track in actuality, is nothing more than a training program for the next year’s football team. You lift weights every day for three months and then up pops outdoor track. Weight lifting for football season is again stressed but for this team you get to carry hurdles out to the track, a tedious chore. When summer gets here, it’s back to the weight room. Every night, all summer we lift and run to get in shape. The same cycle starts again. This endless enigma is not all bad. For instance the state championship in football in ’74 relieved some of the pain of the long season. Track was fun and the meets were exciting. Summer was not totally tormenting. We did get weekends off. Mike Carter LIONEL GIRROD JORDAN Football 10,11,12.

CHUCK MORELLI KAREN MARSHALL VERIAN MARSHALL A certain excitement makes a daytime football game differ- ent from a night game. Put it on TV and place yourself in the telecaster’s booth on a microphone and the whole game be- comes too exciting for words. I remember vividly the various emotions I felt. When I was explained the details of my job, I was thrilled over the amount of work. About an hour before we went on, David Sullivan, the play-by-play man from TV 10, briefed me. Fi- nally, with just thirty seconds to go the lump that haunts many who speak in public made its presence felt in my throat. 1 heard David ask my pre-game opinion and, miraculously, the words just flowed out of my mouth.

As an avid watcher of televi- ■MHHMMi sion, I was really excited to have the opportunity to appear on WAVY-TV 10 for the Bethel-Hampton game. To be in front of the camera instead of the television set enabled me to learn about the behind-the- scene technology of television. The experience was not only educational, but also unforgettable.

Preparing my trick squad of six girls including myself is only one half of an accomplishment. The other half is bribing them anyway I can to get them to forget their nervousness and enter the football field for our halftime debut perform- ance of a trick drill routine. I sensed a great deal of tension and pressure as I lined them up making sure we all had correct spacing so we wouldn’t trample over each other and fall down in front of 6,000 people. I also had to keep pounding into their heads that if they forgot the routine I’d kill them. As I took my post I drew a complete blank, asking myself “What am I doing? Get me out of here!” It was too late. The male drill team commander drew his saber which in turn cued Mr. Croft, announcing the female squad and their commander. Now it was my turn. I had to do it. “Squad Forrr-ward March!” Jill Willig 134 seniors • Bethel ' s femate dfr’IMeam marches _ into pQsiUon during halftime of the SS ' C wT ' rsf VMWit aaSw,, ' v ' . . .?TTiSr:l a Jn Wi ■mM - m DAVID ARNOLD PEDERSON Key Club 10,11.12; National Honor Society 11,12.

Sacrifice Football is a team sport that re- quires dedication. Most people find it hard to devote themselves to a sport because of friends and other reasons. The Bruins made sac- rifices, but they didn’t seem to pay off. Whitney Powell Running is something that’s very special. A person can feel superior when he wins because he’s doing something that someone else can’t do. While a person is running, the crowd can really motivate him. This makes him realize that there’s someone there who is concerned about how well he’s doing. I feel very proud to be a runner because I know that there are people who can hardly walk. That makes me run harder for them.

Story begin!” These are the opening lines of a Bicentennial play for children entitled “GOL- LIWHOPPERS!” that was presented during the summer of 1975. Seniors Alan Richardson and Ann Schy were part of the cast of seven. Structured similar to “GODSPELL,” the play was presented every Sunday at Mill Point in downtown Hampton. The play dealt with four folk tales glorifying America’s heritage. When asked how they got in- volved with the show, both Ann and Alan had iden- tical responses. Ann said, “I went to tryouts and was told that I would be notified if I made it.” Alan echoed that he went to the Peninsula Community Theater, tried out, and made it. The play was sponsored by the PCT and the Hampton Association for the Arts and Humanities with a grant from the Federal government. Did they enjoy doing the show? Both Ann and Alan responded unequivocally “Yes!” Alan Richardson 138 seniors A wandering mind plagues Alan Richardson during play rehearsal. •V , v ■ 1 • Applause The thrill of a show, the applause at the final curtain and the closeness that grows between people, that’s why I joined drama. It is a real learning expe- rience to work with a show from a read through to the laughter and tears at a cast party. I’d never change a single mi- nute I have had in that auditorium for anything. I’ve made new friends and done things that only drama could ever give me the chance to do . . . the chance to be someone else for a few hours and to experience life as I believe the character would.

JIM SPECHT Empty Pockets Hey, you got a dime I can bor- row? Seniors are selling doughnuts.” These words rang familiar to many ears. For the month of Oc- tober, every Thursday meant cup- cakes, cookies, brownies, doughnuts and empty pockets as seniors de- voted their lunch time to raising money for their class. But as the weeks progressed, participation in the bake sales de- clined. The lack of participation put an end to the sales and an end to the chance for seniors to raise money. As a result, the seniors ended up having to pay for prom invitations and their trip to Busch Gardens because the attempt to raise funds was a flop Denise Edwards 140 seniors BARRY STUART SPIGEL Chess Team 10,11,12; DA R Award 11; Bethel Review 12; Prom Com- mittee 12; National Honor Society 11,12; Class Night Committee.

I worked hard trying to talk about the dance enough so people would come and support the Senior Class. The problem was that there wasn’t enough interest on the part of the seniors to get it all rolling. If the se- niors would support the class, things would be alot better. I was depending on this dance, and it didn’t bring in as much money as I wanted. We were trying to help the seniors. We did raise money, but it wasn’t enough for me. I was disappointed.

Richard Petty . . . Mike McVaugh: Car racing, right? Mike isn ' t out in the line up at Indianapolis 500 but in drag racing he’s right up front. Settling down in his blue-gray Nova, Mike prepares to race time. When the Christmas tree turns green, he and one other competator are off down the quarter-mile straightaway. Each of them hope to clock in somewhere around 14 or 15 seconds. There are two such raceways in Virginia, one in Richmond, and one in Suffolk. The races aren’t adorned with fancy names but they are just as offical as some that are. Although Chevrolets are the most popular cars being used in drag racing, Mike adds a line that leaves the winning up to anyone in any car, “Cars will fool you.’’ Michelle Norton 144 seniors LESLIE CARROLL WAL- DROP JV Cheerleader 10; Var- sity Cheerleader 11,12, Captain 12; Key Club Sweetheart 12; Miss Kick-Off Queen 12; Sophomore Class Treasurer; Office Assistant 10 , 11 .

A Need to Express Some people paint. Some sing. Others have certain hobbies, jobs, and interests through which they ex- press their creativity. Teresa Dewey has found herself in writing songs. “I write music because I feel the need to express my feelings,” says Teresa. When writing her music, she begins because she is “inspired to write at that time; it comes naturally.” Certain kinds of songs evoke dif- ferent feelings. Teresa adds, “Like writing a love song, it’s a relief to ex- press your thoughts because you can tell someone something in a song which you cannot say with simple words.” Teresa began writing songs in the fall of 1973. This led to her receiving a copyright for one of her pieces in August, 1975. Teresa gives her brother the credit for being her motivating force. “He was my inspi- ration for everything I ever did in music.” Seeing someone writing and creat- ing from her heart is inspiring.

How do I come to be a part of this school? Having come from a smaller and less equiped school I have found things different. It takes awhile to break-in and be a part of it all. Getting involved in a few activities helps, but a 30 minute lunch just isn’t enough. Maybe if I go to all the football games someone will notice me. I could talk in class, but teachers don’t appreciate that — I guess you can’t win them all! All I can do is be me. Being myself is all I have to offer. I hope they accept me. I guess it all boils down to starting again and making new friends. Here I go again! Hi! My name’s Debbie . . .

I arrived at school before 7:30, just in time to see 150 other juniors already there. I took my place in line, which happened to be several hundred feet from the bookstore. After an hour of standing in line, I could almost see the bookstore. The bell rang and many people went to class. The line moved considerably. Fifteen minutes later I was in front of the counter, waiting for the magic moment when I would receive my ring. Just my luck! It’s too small!

Caring. . . Amateur modeling offers a means of community involvement and a form of self- expression for three members of the Junior Class. Denise Blake, Michelle Boone, and Alva Cooper all agree that modeling has been beneficial. Denise and Alva, who model for the Community Ambassadors of Rices-Nachman’s, consider the community projects more rewarding than the modeling. Michelle is also enthusiastic about community projects. She reveals that her most thrilling experience occurred several months ago when we did a fashion show at the Virginia State School for the Deaf and Blind. After the show we taught the kids some of the techniques we had used. I really enjoyed being with those kids.” Of course the young ladies have received personal rewards too. Among them confi- dence, poise, and self-improvement rank the highest. Bobby Sanders 152 juniors Wary! “Behind The Wheel’’ was quite an experience for those of us who are now licensed drivers.

When I took my jacket out of the closet and shook it and some confetti fell out, I realized that an exciting football season had come to an end.

Michelle Cawthom is a ballerina. She has been dancing for the Penin- sula Civic Ballet for the past 7 years. Approximately 30 other dancers work for the Ballet. Michelle’s dancing requires over 25 hours of practice a week. In 1975, she was the lead dancer in the Ballet ' s Christ- mas production of THE NUTCRACKER SUITE. Through her rigorous training, Michelle says that she has developed self-determination and poise. Would Michelle recommend ballet for everyone? She answered, “To accomplish anything in ballet, the person re- ally has to be interested in it. If you aren ' t interested, you won’t be able to handle all of the practice.’’ Bobby Sanders O CD Mike Pendleton David Pennington D avid Pereira Janene Peters Darlene Pettaway Pamela Phillips Oliver Prescott Charles Prevette Cathy Price Stanley Price Pam Prill Patty Pritchard Kevin Quarles Larrie Quarles Keith Quarrels Kevin Rappold Brian Reece Leslie Reiss Brandon Richardson Phillip Richardson Glenn Richie Dorris Ricks njoying dessert atj cience-Math Club mee] Bthy Smith. : - ■ ■■ •■ : •. � ■ Officers for the Junior Class are Glenda Whitaker, Bobby Sanders, Laura Waxman. and John Hutche- son. r . juniors 161 Deborah Rigney Kenneth Robbins Wanda Robbins Tamra Roberts Tammy Rose David Rosser Dorian Roston Sheila Rountree Steve Rudisill Phyllis Rush Dermetrius Sampson Roc Samuel David Samuels Bobby Sanders Nancy Santangelo Bryan Satisfield Robbie Saunders Robin Schenck Diana Scher Joe Schy Doreen Scott Judy Scott Mack Scott Mike Scott Rhonda Scott Vonicila Scott Marc Seinfeld Chuck Selby Anticipation Oh, the sweet anticipation of looking back and being able to view a vast panorama of four years at Virginia Commonwealth University.

Captain Jill Taylor introduces the JV cheerleaders. On Target To some, school is little more than a hassle or a play ground; however, to most, school is perpetual motion. It provides one with momentum and thrusts him onward into a better prepared life. One who quits is like a snapped bow. Years and years of pulling back, and all is lost. One who cheats is like a half- drawn bow that will propel the arrow only half as far. Yet, he who fulfills it’s requirements gains enough spring to shoot himself straight and sure at the rest of the world.

Hope- fully, it will lead me to better myself and all the people surrounding me. There’s no more fear or worry, just the planning and dreaming of the hap- penings in the future.

I can’t make the Science Club meeting tomor- row. Why not? Because Mrs. Eaton said if I missed one more Drama Club meeting she’d kick me out of the club. And after that’s over? Well, after that Mrs. Smackum is taking the Spanish Club on a field trip. See you later, Mr. Ellis. I have to go explain to Mr. Pierpont why I missed yesterday’s meeting of the Key Club so that I could go to Mr. Benson’s Shop Club meeting. Oh my gosh! I’m thirty minutes late for football practice. Coach Koz will kill me. I consider myself a con- demned man. Tommy Jensen 176 sophomores 1 Enjoyingr Looking at the different clubs, I decided to get involved, but in which ones? I attended the meetings of many clubs and soon became a member of the Science-Math Club, i the Yearbook Staff, and the Drama Club. Both the Science-Math Club ' s Road Rally and the Drama Club’s play kept me busy for a long while. Now working with the yearbook. I’m really enjoying B.H.S.

The excitement of going places and being a part of this organiza- tion can be very rewarding. Even though the band is a group of people, each person has to put forth special effort to sound good. If a person is sitting last chair in a section, he should remember he is still important, for not everyone has the skill to play an instru- ment, and at least he does. The more a person practices, the better the band will be. Tanya Lindsay 178 sophomores Listening tor her cue. Cheryl Lovett and her escort wait for Home- coming Festivities to begin.

People from all walks of life have risen to great acclaim because of their outstanding achievements in different areas. Clark Harrison is one of those people. He has placed first in the Amateur Athletic Union’s Regional Wrestling Tournament and in the AAU Eastern National Tournament. There is a “high” in wrestling for Clark, something to relate to. “People that don’t have anything to identify with seem kind of lost,” says Clark. But not only is he an award winning wrestler, he is a deep, compassion- ate human being with an insatiable love for life. This side of Clark is revealed through his writing of poetry. To sit and talk with him about his writing is to feel a power generating within him, a power intangible, yet so strong, that is sensuates and activates every nerve and emotion in your body. Clark once stated, “My main task in life is to open someone’s eyes to life and see it for what it really is.” Life and beauty, innocent, natural beauty is what Clark writes about. If he does not believe in it or if he does not feel it, he will not write about it. And imagine, he is just a sophomore.

Sitting out in the rain watching the football game, leading the team on to victory and yourself to a cold, but you don’t want to leave for fear that you might miss something important, a key play, a fight or something like that. Then the rain stops and wind starts to blow. Now you’re freezing. So you get up, walk around, do a few cheers trying to keep warm. A touchdown is scored. You jump, yell, scream, and at that moment, you are not cold. But a few min- utes later your’re freezing again. Teeth chattering, knees knocking, but you don ' t want to leave because you got the feeling you’re going to miss something. So you sit there. Ra, Ra! Go team, go! The game is over. There were no exciting plays, no fights, no no- thing. And now you realize that you could have been home in a nice warm bed asleep, but you’re glad you came. Vernon Butler Watching for a key play.

I had been looking forward to coming to Bethel, but when the day arrived I realized I was nervous. After I got to school and talked to my friends I found out they felt the same way. I was lucky because two of my closest friends were in my homeroom. After being in homeroom a little while we went on a tour of the school. It wasn’t a very thorough tour, so we were all afraid we would get lost. But to save us from despair, they gave us a map of the school. We went to the auditorium for the orientation. They introduced us to the staff and the S.C.A. officers. Then the librarian took over and presented a film on the lib- rary. The film was long and we began to get restless. After the film was finally over we went back to our homerooms. There we received our schedules. Now it was time for the homeroom teachers to turn us loose in hopes of finding our first periods. To my surprise, at the end of the day, I realized that I hadn’t gotten lost at anytime and everything had fallen into place.

C People yelling, screaming, stomp- ing, slapping, hitting sticks against cans, and being general ear drum- splitters. Teachers trying to keep some semblance of order. Then some cheerleaders jumping, yelling, and performing the usual gut- tearing, gymnastic gyrations. Enter the majorettes with batons twirling all over the place. The effect is diz- zying. The band is playing as loudly as possible, but still you can ' t hear them over the chants of “Seniors,” “Juniors,” and “Sophomores.” All of this chaos, confusion, and conglomeration of sound stand for one common idea, spirit. School spirit, a kind of spirit that reaches into you and drowns you in pride for Bethel. Suddenly, you hear yourself yelling right along with the others. You know this is where you belong, with people just like you.

Both Mr. Croft and Mr. Shupe worked with boys’ discipline. 3 s? 5 5 ! Assistants Mr. Bennett’s OK! Some teachers try to put too much work on you and expect you to do it all in such a short time. And there are some that don ' t explain what they want you to do in detail and this mess- es you up. You end up doing the work wrong. But Mr. Bennett is O.K. He can understand what is going on and if the work is late, it is alright. There are some teachers that make school really special. And if it weren ' t for them, school wouldn’t be worth coming to.

We could show our patriotism by being involved in the Bicenten- nial or our loyalty to Bethel by being involved in school activities. Or we may have chosen to be more involved in ourselves — developing our potentials. Regardless of the approach, we took advantage of the chances for self- expression. 214 epilogue epilogue 215 Self Members of the Ursa Major staff would like to thank all those individuals who helped with our eighth volume. Special gratitude is ex- presses to Mr. John Perry, Mr. Don Gardner, Mrs. J.R. Stortz, Mrs. Susan Davis, and Mr. Wilson Moore. 216 epilogue Senior Class President Mathew Winder presents gifts from the class to Mr. Gillikin. ■
