3 I n the tradition of the two preceding classes, the graduating class of 1976 presented another comedy on April 3, 1976. Under the direction of Mr. Don Martin, the seniors produced “Dear Diary,” a play featuring many of the same characters from “It’s Great to be Crazy,” which was performed by the class of 1974 and received a standing ovation. Marshall Harris commented, “The play seemed to fit the actors and the gym very well. Most of the characters in the play were high school students, and that made it easy for the seniors to adapt to their characters. There were absolutely no set changes, which simplified matters greatly. The one basic set was simple, which tended to thr ow attention to the characters.” USING HER girlish charm, Debbie Jones tries to IN CONFUSED states of mind, Mike Wright and convince Glenn Johnson of her dad’s innocence. Bill Young double over in pain because of their raid of the refrigerator. 10 — Doing — Senior Play

Pctfon Is... Ask the average student or teacher what his largest time consumer was, and he’ll probably answer, “school.” Yes, for many people, school was the center of their lives from September to June; for some, this held true even during the summer months. School was not all academics for most people. Sports programs con- sumed a large portion of the athlete’s “extra hours,” not to mention the time invested by cheerleaders, fans, and parents in supporting the teams. For those whose leisure time was too leisurely, there always seemed to be clubs or school-wide events which welcomed workers or were made merrier with more participation. Compared to recent years, stu- dents and teachers exemplified a greater overall interest in school life, through increased sports and non- athletic participation. Although there were, as always a number of people who found life more exciting outside of school, there still existed the majority who felt, for one reason or another, that BA was where the action was” — most of the time. FOR MANY STUDENTS and parents, the begin- ning of football season meant getting into gear for the new school year. At Broadwater on Vir- ginia ' s Eastern Shore, Carroll Moseley (43) sprints 10 yards to score the Vikings’ first of many touchdowns of the 1976-77 varsity season.
