Finding a part of yourself you never knew was even there. Not going along with the crowd for the first time. Finding out new friends, new experiences, a new you. EXPOSURES. Life at Bluestone is full of exposures. Every day brings new times, new disasters, and new successes. Maybe a teacher sparks a thought, or you understand something for the first time and it makes your day. Maybe a day finally ends which had to have been the longest of the year. But in each case there is a new chal- lenge. Or a new pain. Life at Bluestone is frustrating, impos- sible, challenging, but never boring. Always worth our best. Our daily exposures and one other tiny thing make it that way. YOU. 2 Opening Opening 3 Expose your interests, develop them! 4 Opening Opening 5 D s ® a °o © SEAT ADy Opening 7 —— Rendezvous under the STARS On May 14, Juniors and Seniors along with their dates, met for a ““Rendezvous under the Stars.” Many months of planning and preparation had pre- ceded this festive occasion. Juniors had raised money by selling cookies to cover the costs of the band, decora- tions, and refreshments. Under blue streamers and silver stars, students en- joyed dancing and ‘sitting with their friends while listening to the music of ‘Improvised Sound.” For many, May 14 was a day always to remember, and for some it will be a day to forget. i ' ' 8 Prom i | =| OPPOSITE PAGE, TOP LEFT: Vera Beck and Evone Tillotson arrange stars for the rendezvous.

Paul C. Bailey gave the Baccalaureate Address. Pam Fulp and Myra Howerton gave the Commencement Ad- dress. Willeta Reid offered the Senior Challenge with Randolph Beales accepting the challenge for the Junior class. After the presentation of the Class Gift, Awards, and the Class of ‘77, 234 students became graduates. Graduation 11 Homecoming Takes On Changes Homecoming 1977 was characterized by a new method of queen selection, a pep rally considered by many to be “the best ever,’ and a not-too-successful Homecoming Dance. For the first time this year, the Homecoming Court was chosen by organizations rather than being chosen by the football team. Many students were not pleased with this idea because part of the excitement of Homecoming had been seeing who the football team would choose. The method of voting was changed from ballot voting to a penny vote. Although there was a lot of discontent, someone must have voted because over $600.00 was collected. Angela Brodgon, Representing the FHA, was voted queen. Her attendants were Vicky Overby representing the Beta Club (first runner-up); Denise Greene representing the Monitor (second runner-up); Kelly Davis representing the Go den Link (third runner-up); Ann Reamy representing the Cheerleaders, Lucy Pittard representing the FBLA, Wanda Martin represent- ing the Band, Pam Jones representing the Biology Club, Beth Bailey representing the French Club, Beverly Dailey representing the SCA, and Felice Somerville representing the Monogram Club. The Homecoming activities began with a pep rally. First the cheerleaders staged a skit, which was a hilarious funeral for the Warriors. Then several cheers were led by teacher — “cheerleaders”. After the game, the Monogram Club sponsored a Home- coming Dance. The crowd was small, but the students who participated really enjoyed themselves.

Just as exposed film doesn’t always turn out as predicted, so it seems all of our efforts to expose our students to the jour- nalistic arts have been somewhat like our developing chem- icals — exhausted. Publications were limited to the Golden Link and a few articles in local newspapers. Walter D. Conner taught Photo-Journalism | Il and was responsible for the publish- ing of the annual. Pete Mondragon and Mark Thompson were co-editors of the annual. Nancy Talley was in charge of all newspaper articles with Debi Vaughan filling the editor's seat. Cost of the annual rose from $11 to $15 and as a result, less than one third of the 728 students found money to buy an annual. Apathy also played a large role in the reduction of sales. Not only did the students who were responsible for the creation of the annual fail to meet each of their deadlines, but also the students for whom the annual was created failed to make payments for their annuals. the annual, proofreads copy.

Proceeds from this money-raising project went to several scholarships awarded to deserving seniors. New members received during induction ceremonies were escorted by experi- enced seniors to the annual Beta Club Convention which was held this year ot T 7 in Roanoke. Most members agreed U es one S that this was the most enjoyable Beta Club activity in which they had par- ef t ticipated, aside from the honor of being e as selected for membership. | Dana Pritchard, President; Vickey Overbey, Secretary; Anthony Jones, Kim Walker and Karen Wallace were picked Vice President; Tim O'Brian, Treasurer. Beta Club members attend a meeting in the Library. 18 Beta Club This year the Biology Club, spon- sored by Mrs. Cummings-Palmer, de- creased its size, as several members dropped out of the club and a few mem- bers graduated last year. To be a member of the Biology Club, a student must be interested in a future career in one of the many science fields. A student must also maintain a “B” average in the courses they are taking. Each year the Biology Club partici- pates in many activities. Every spring, the Biology Club goes out on their annual “Hunting expedition” to find and collect many flowers and insects, to later classify. This year the Biology Club put up hanging baskets in the cafeteria to brighten up a sometimes’ dreary cafeteria.

The mem- bers Edmond Quentin and Alain played wind instru- ments, guitar, and drums to demonstrate Spanish folk songs in the Latin American Countries. In December, Dr. Maria Sylveira, Professor of Spanish at Longwood College, visited the Spanish classes. She talked about her departure from Cuba after Castro’s climb to power. Mrs. Sylveira’s talk was interesting, educational, and gave the students the experience of hearing someone tell exactly how privileged we are to live in a free country. Mrs. Ken Cope from Clarksville came to talk to students about her visits in Mexico. This year she brought back a 12 year old exchange student who speaks Spanish fluently. SPANISH I!

Each student secretary, whether in the front office, guidance office, or library, gives up an entire period to help the school. Most of these students seem to agree that the real reasons they do this volunteer work are ‘‘to legally roam the halls, get people out of class, and make general nuisances” of themselves. However, Bluestone’s faculty is made constantly aware of the real help these students are to them and the school. Staff Assistants 23 Barbara Thames, FHA State Reporter, meeting. | Homemakers Barbara Thameé Harris, Rita Moore, Sherri Gil 24 FHA The Future Homemakers of America really shone through this year with quite a few successful activities. This club, with one of the largest membership of any club at Bluestone, was in charge of the SPTA Christmas program and sponsored a float in the Chase City Christmas parade. One leadership training workshop the FHA held after school so new officers could learn to do their jobs well. Four workshops were held for enjoyment and education of the Future Homemakers. Probably the most outstanding achievement of the FHA was the election of Barbara Thames to the office of State Reporter for Virginia. It has been several years since Bluestone’s FHA has held any state office, and this club is indeed proud of Barbara’s accomplishments. Barbara traveled all the way to Seattle, Washington, to attend the National FHA Convention. She stayed for eight days of lectures and tours, and describes it as “the most exciting experience” of her life. With her help, the FHA has been one of the most active clubs at Bluestone this year.

The cost of a skateboard is governed only by your pocketbook. Finding a place to ride is harder. The closest skateboard park is 50 miles, but if you are lucky you may find a good sidewalk or a parking lot. But, don’t despair, with gas going up this may be a new way to get to school.

The coaches should have distributed crutches, casts, and slings to the Baron football players this year along with pads, helmets, and uniforms. Injuries started to pile up even before the season began. While the team was at Ft. Pickett for football camp, Pete Pennington dislocated his shoulder. By the time of the game against Park View on October 14, the team was so injury- ridden that only 17 players dressed out. The plague of injuries had to be a factor in the team’s disappointing record of 3 wins, 6 losses, and 1 tie. The highlight of the season was the home game aginst Randolph-Henry, which the Barons won 51-7. Other wins came against Cumberland (26-6) and Brunswick (20-0). Maybe next season after all the injuries heal, the Barons will have enough players dressed out to have 2 squads. Name Year Darnell Atkins — Sr. James Brown’ Soph. Watt Bullock Sr. Donnie Clary Soph.

With no starters from last year returning, little was expected of the varsity team. The barons would play, but... and so the season began. When the season ended with nine loses and ten wins, the team ended up in third place in the district. This made everyone wonder what other school scores looked like. The Barons had their highlights though, Henry Goode’s high scores and constant dunks paved the way to higher scores. The win against Greensville raised the spirit of the team and gave confidenc e to what seemed to be a hopeless season. When the Barons beat Randolph-Henry it was the win of the season with a demanding lead of 73 to 52. The season wasn’t such a disaster after all.

Boy's Basketball 41 The Junior Varsity Basketball team had a total of four wins, ten losses, and no ties. According to JV Coach Palmer, in his opinion, the lack of consistency is the thing that hurt the team the most. The team would sometimes attack as though they were the masters of their trade. Then again they would simply go through the motion with other teams. The biggest problems the team faced were the lack of a desire to win and poor ball handling. Anytime the B’s faced a team that pressed, they had their hands full for that night. Coach Palmer, on the positive side, felt that his team was a much stronger team than their performance indicated. This was the first year for some of the players, and experience means a lot. As for Coach Palmer, this was his first year as JV Coach, and in looking back, he saw many things that if he could do over he would certainly do them differently. He said, “‘In order to have a good team, you must possess determina- tion, consistency, skill and be ready to do hard work. Coach Palmer’s philosophy in coaching a team is one that is clear and simple. There must be a workable relationship between the coach and the players. In practices, drills should be executed as close to perfection as possible. In order to have a winning team, both players and coach must have self- determination. To sum it all up, one could easily say, ‘To be a winner, one can not only talk like a winner, but he has to play like one too.” L. Hardy, J. Reynolds, A. Evans, W.

For the second time the Bluestone Baronettes were successful in being both the regular season and tournament champs in the district with an undefeated record of (14-0) in district and 2-0 in the tournament. However, they lost to Suffolk in the first game of the regionals (56-63). The two leading scorers were Bonita Goode and Gloria Venable. Bonita scored 459 points for the season. Both Bonita and Gloria made All-District Team, and Delta Bowers made Honorable Mention. Bonita and Gloria also made the All- Tournament Team along with LaNita Hudgins. The Baronettes contribute their success to their coach and the dedication of each member of the team. Gloria Venable rebounds. The Champs Bonita Goode lays-up.

Bluestone added a new feminine touch to its sports scene with the formation of a girls track team. Mrs. Catherine Dirks coached the new team. Josephine Jones and Wanda Smith participated in the 100, 200, and 440. Jennifer Daniels also ran the 220 and 440. Speed is the objective in these races, and Josephine, Wanda, and Jennifer executed speed and style in their running events. In the 880 (% mile), Bev Chewning and Cindi Wright placed throughout the season. In the field events Wanda Smith and Josephine Jones participated in the long jump, triple jump, and high jump. Angie Carter, Cindi Wright, and Bev Chewning threw shot and discus. On the masculine side of track, the boys team set records throughout the season. Larry Pulliam set records in the mile, while Irving White hurdled through the season to set time records. John Shelton set a pole vaulting record at 12'4”. Wanda Smith, on the girls’ team went to the Regional meet, but sprained her ankle and didn’t compete. Larry Pulliam participated and placed in the 1 mile at the State meet.

Office Staff 61 With competency tests looming ahead, English teachers at Bluestone have joined the nationwide back-to-the-basics trend — much to the dismay of their students. This has meant more time spent in the study of grammar and usage and more emphasis on composition. College-bound students found themselves writing paragraphs, essays, book reviews, and critical papers. Vocational students wrote letters, direc- tions, and paragraphs. And almost every junior or senior faced that most-dreaded writing experience — the term paper. “Are we ever going to study any literature?”’ was a question harried English students began to ask. Students in the classes of ‘78, ‘79, and ‘80 did have at least one reassuring thought: they would not be required to pass those awful minimum competency tests they were hearing about.

Many students found the challenge of math and science courses to be too great, to be stumbling blocks in their path to graduation and college acceptance. For those students who were equal to the challenge though, math and science courses proved to be exciting — to provide glimpses into worlds unknown or to the future. New furniture for the chemistry room arrived in February — or rather part of the new furniture arrived. The new high tables arrived without the matching stools, so chemistry students got lots of laughs from sitting in chairs and peering over the tops of the tables.

U.S. History Our heritage — our government — our society. These are the topics covered by the social studies courses. In U.S. History, Mrs. Chris Ricci talked very fast all year trying to mention just most of the important people and events that helped to make our nation what it is. While she was doing that, Miss Elva Kipler and Mr. O. B. Crowder, were busy trying to give Seniors enough under- standing of government so that they could become function- ing members of society after graduation. Mr. A. C. Holloman held up the elective end of the Social Studies department by giving those students who wanted to know some background on society, its organization, and its problems. Miss Kibler and O. B.

Education cannot consider only the intellectual part of the individual and neglect the physical. With this philosophy in mind, the physical education teachers have planned a program which includes a wide range of physical activities. In phys. ed., a student might find himself playing basketball, football, volleyball, or soft- ball. He also might learn to perform on the trampoline, the parallel bars, or the balance beam. He might try his skill at tumbling or at track and field events. As the scramble to obtain behind-the-wheel grew, Miss Miriam Hughey was added as a driver's ed. teacher. This made it possible for a good number of students who would have been unable to get the coveted credit to do so. Mr. Walter D. Conner National Business College B.C.S.

It was a year spent in planning for next years move to the new vocational building. Talk of new courses to be offered — block programs, dis- tributive education, building trades, plumbing, food services — filled the air. Business teachers spent many afternoons in courses on how to organize a block program. By mid-year, equipment for the new building had already begun to arrive. This caused storage problems. In February, Mr. James Brooks, county vocational director, visited sophomore and junior classes to give information that would help the students in deciding what courses they might enjoy.

Recall our favorite songs: “| Just Want to be Your Everything,” Andy Gibb; “Brick House,’’ Commodores; “Tonight's the Night,”” Rod Stewart; and the ‘Original Sound Track from the movie, Saturday Night Fever.” Our favorite flicks: Saturday Night Fever, Star Wars, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, One On One, The Goodbye Girl, Heroes, The Chicken Chronicles, Semi- Tough, The Betsy, Smokey and the Bandit, and Oh, God.

TOP RIGHT: Kim Walker and Karen Wallace rush to class. Juniors! Bluestone’s Juniors have always been quite special. They are too old to act like the young, lively sophomores, but still too young to be mature, “posh” seniors. Biue- stone’s middle children have, therefore, special prob- lems: fear of college, fear of their senior responsibilities, disgust at the sophomores ( WE never acted like THAT . . . Did we?”), and being exposed even more to the trauma of growing up. But the Juniors “hung in there” — and like their fore- runners, they survived their difficult year. No one ever believed this year’s prom would equal last year’s, but it did. Those horrid 11th grade classes turn out not to be so terrible. The junior year goes by so quickly, and now graduation looms ahead. How do Juniors feel about their current status? “It is looking better every year | get closer to gradua- tion,”” explained Lonius Johnson. “Although the classes are harder, | do enjoy myself as a junior.”” He continued, “| haven't earned any privileges as a junior, but | do enjoy being above the sophomores.” Lonius is definitely look- ing toward his senior year. He commented, “It means graduation and being highest of upper classmen. | look forward to the privileges a senior enjoys, and | just want to tear the roof off his joint.” Like Lonius, Lisa Mann feels her junior year is better because, ‘The subjects are more enjoyable and my grades have been better.’ Also Lisa was glad to be able to wear her class ring. She said, “‘! feel like my class ring shows a bit of superiority and shows school loyalty.” The big junior year privilege to Lisa is working on the prom. About being a senior, Lisa said, ‘I’m looking for- ward to my senior year, but the seniors say it’s scary after you get there. All through school you plan on what you are going to take the next year, but once you become a senior, you have the responsibility to plan the rest of your future.” Also considering what junior year means, Delta Bowers commented, “’! feel as if | am on my way out of high school into college, and | feel more superior than | did my sophomore year.” Delta is looking forward to her senior year because, “| know that further education is ahead for me, and the profession that | want to study in college is waiting for i me.

It’s much better than the Junior High (but that’s not saying much!)” This comment sums up the general opinion of Biue- stone’s 258 sophomores. Frame 2 — Mark Nunn and William Park The differences between the Junior High and Senior High are, “better lunches, a cleaner school, better faculty, no bus rooms, more freedom, harder classes, and a larger school.” Frame 3 — William Morse “The Senior High offers a sophomore a look into the future and lets him see what he could be.” William Morse believes that sophomore year offers a challenge and a ti me to mature. Frame 4 — Evonne Johnson ‘As the year goes on | think I'll learn to adjust more to the new surroundings. In time, | think I'll love and be proud to be called a true Baron as any other junior or senior.” What is sophomore year all about? It is a time for taking on more responsibilities, adjusting to new sur- roundings, a developing more mature feelings and attitudes. le ‘ ae ERIE: Lyn Crutchfield tries to decide whether he is on the outside looking in or in the inside looking out. a CAA E maton The camera catches Tina Smith with a big smile.

To some students this meant nothing more than an inconvenience. Others saw in it a promise of things to come, because it was construction of a new vocational center which would have an all-new curriculum, consisting of many new and more advanced classes. The new classes, which stated to begin in September of 1978, were building trades, electronics, air conditioning, refrigeration and heating, dis- tributive education, occupational clothing service and a new block system for business courses. Below are pictures showing some of the different stages of the centers b ip 2 ¥ ay cy hen construction.

Power mechanics and masonry are two of the most useful classes Bluestone offers. They provide valuable training that is vital in job training and actual work after graduation. Masonry consists of the art of bricklaying. Mr. Dortch also teaches his students some advanced bricklaying techniques. Power mechanics, taught by Mr. Pixley, is a class per- taining to engines and how they work. Some students worked on tractors while others fixed car engines.

Without them students would be hungry and the school would be dirty. Cooks and custodians have important jobs. To make their lunches more appe- tizing, the cooks added something new to their lunches this year. Instead of having one lunch to choose, students have a choice, the plate or burger. If a student does not like what is on the plate lunch, he can eat a burger. By having two lunches, the cafeteria hoped to get more students to eat lunch. ABOVE: Joann Brankley works on a lunch menu.
