By helping students prepare for a career in this area, they are made more aware of their environment and what it means to the future. Mr. Reeves—Agriculture Mr. Kinzie—Shop Doug learns skills for the future. 20—Agriculture ART DEVELOPS STUDENTS’ CREATIVITY Students put artistic ideas and talents to work. Miss Barbara Howe, a 1970 graduate of Longwood College, heads the Buffalo Gap High School Art Department. Art is to develop a student’s sensitivity to his environment and his own methods of self expression. Although art is expressed without words, an idea painted on canvas, an inner feeling caught in pen and ink, it is a reflection of the artist’s soul. Miss Howe—Art Art—21 COUNSELORS GUIDE STUDENTS Guidance Counselors are a combination of the Great White Father and Freud, striving to provide educational, occupational and emotional counseling for all students based on individual needs. Counseling involves helping seniors with their applications for college and technical schools, helping underclassmen with problems in their class schedules and individu¬ al problems. By encouraging students to continue their education the guidance counsel¬ ors hope for better citizens to inherit the world. Mrs. Hull—Counseling and Home Economics Mr. Armstrong—Counseling and Biology Miss Pitsenbarger—Counseling 22— Guidance BUSINESS DEPARTMENT STRIVES TO TEACH SKILLS Mrs. Park—Personal Use Typing and Typing I The Business Department of Buffalo Gap High School, with some added new equipment, strives to teach students a skill that can be used after graduation, and also to develop better economic citizens.

SHHHHH — THE LIBRARY IS FOR STUDYING The main objective in having a library is to develop a love for reading, and to make students feel a part of the library program. The reading room, a part of the library program at Buffalo Gap, helps students feel at ease because there they can read magazines and discuss articles quietly. New to the library this year is Mrs. Ware, assistant. Library—25 ENGLISH DEPARTMENT The English department presents new ideas to students. With these new ideas they learn to express themselves in all phases of life. A new “reading period” has been added to give students time to read their favorite paperback books and magazines. The books are obtained free from an area bookstore. Mr. Park, eleventh grade English teacher, added a course on “how to get a job,” which is beneficial to students looking for summer employment or for jobs after graduation. Mr. Park Mrs. Moody Mrs. East ENCOURAGES MORE READING English—27 Mr. Taylor Miss Clinedinst w Mrs. Race—Home Nursing GIRLS PREPARE FOR FUTURE Mrs. Horne—Home Economics and English 8 Home Economics classes offer students ways to learn some of the everyday things which will be needed in their future. Cooking, sewing, housing, home nursing, and home management are some of the subjects Home Economics covers, and each is practical for future homemakers. The courses provide students with information on how to cope with situations they will meet in their everyday life. Every¬ thing taught is for the student’s own advantage and will someday be useful. To prepare for the future, plan ahead with Home Economics. Mrs. Burrows—Home Economics 28—Home Economics LANGUAGES INTRODUCE OTHER CULTURES In becoming a well-rounded individual it is important to know something about other countries. The best way to learn about a country is to learn its language. In the modern foreign languages, French and Spanish, empha sis is placed on listening and speaking. Although Latin is no longer used for communication it is important because we owe a large part of our language and culture to it. Mrs. Cupp—Latin and Math 8 Mrs. Ontiveros—Spanish and English 9 Languages — 29 STUDENTS ATTAIN SKILLS IN INDUSTRIAL ARTS The main objective of the Industrial Arts Department is to familiarize students with the processes and functions of industry.

Mrs. Salatin and Miss Swartz started a program of team teaching to provide more individual help in large groups. Mr. Howe and Mr. Lilly, both working full time in Physical Education, were able to have smaller classes, therefore, were able to spend more time with each student. Mr. Howe—Phy. Ed. Mrs. Salatin—Phy.

The janitors see to it that classrooms and halls are kept clean, as well as check the lighting and heat throughout the building. Every school day the cooks prepare healthy meals for the students and faculty. Custodians And Cooks — 39 STUDENT WORKERS Cafeteria workers are vol¬ unteers from throughout the school. Their jobs usually consist of serving food and cleaning the trays. Without the assistance of these vol¬ unteer workers the seven cooks would find their job almost impossible to accomplish. The bus drivers have a great deal of responsibility. Each driver must be alert, alive and must give all of his attention to the road. All of the drivers play an important role in the functioning of the school. Row One: Wanda Helmick, Karen Rawley, Terry Chandler, Teresa Wooten, Kandy Cross.

V a v , R : ftACt STUDENT LIFE HOMECOMING IS A BIG SUCCESS A big event in the lives of the students, Homecoming, was a big success. The mighty Bison defeated the Riverheads Gladiators with a score of 20-0. The halftime show consisted of an intricate entry performed by the band and a fire baton routine by the majorettes. Homecoming Queen, Cindy Shull, was crowned by Mr. Morris with the court looking on. A dance on Saturday night, at which the Crimson Haze performed, completed a busy week. 42—Homecoming 1 i Sk If V 1 IV j Homecoming—43 “TURNING BACK THE HANDS OF TIME 44—Homecoming CUPID VISITS THE GAP February 14th was a special occasion for sweethearts. Buffalo Gap celebrated this day at the Sweetheart Dance given by the Future Teachers of America. Scott Weller and Vicki Cash were chosen by the student body as King and Queen and were recognized during the dance along with the other students in the court. Tables were reserved by students who attended and refreshments were served. The Crimson Haze provided the music for the eve¬ ning. Valentines’ Dance — STUDENTS’ PRODUCTION OF BRIGADOON On November 19, 20, and 21, the Music Department and the Senior Class presented the musical BRIGADOON, a Lerner and Loewe creation. A select group of band members and the Concert Choir provided background music for the play which took place in the Scottish highlands. Two travelers came upon a town which existed only for one day every one hundred years. After one of the two travelers fell in love, he was faced with the decision of returning to New York or staying in the town never to see New York and his old friends again. In telling this story, those performing solos were Curtis Nolley, Edie Drumheller, Bill Shiflet, Dottie Strickler, and Charles Cash. Performing dances were Robert Nicely and Vicki Cash. Bob Masincup, Remonia Johnsen, Jeanette Wilson, Rodney Rexrode, Roger Propst, Scott Weller, and Dale Carlton were other students having important roles. Because of the nature of the play, many other students and teachers were involved in such areas as costuming, makeup, and set design. The production, directed by Mrs. Ramsey, Mr. Moody, and Mr. Park, received great response from all and was termed a success! 46—School Musical IS A BIG SUCCESS School Musical—47 OTHER PHASES OF STUDENT LIFE 48 — Student Life ART ABILITIES BROADENED Row One: Lephia Graves, Gail Downey, Sharon Auville, Elizabeth Drumheller, Nancy Montgomery, Miss Howe.

In the first, a spelling test was given and the highest scorers were asked to con¬ sider being in competition. Other areas of the program were introduced and anyone interested in working was urged to join. Forensics allows one to express himself through the work he chooses to present in the meets with neighboring schools. This trains one in using expression, showing one’s abilities in reading, thinking, and sometimes writing. When meets are held, he has the chance to prove his skills, and the effort he has put forth in his area for weeks is rewarded.

THOSE INTERESTED IN BOOKS JOIN LIBRARY CLUB The purpose of the Library Club is to train students to assist in the library and to create an interest in books and authors. By creating this interest the use of books for research and pleasure will be greater and the care of books will be taken more seriously. Changes have been made so that more student initiative results through a new type of work scheduling. The changes were made to give students a feeling of being more a part of the staff rather than just working to take up study hall time. tow One: Linda Cox, Tricia Todd, Phyllis Masincup, Donna Clendennon, Bonnie Miles, Ella Cross, Donna Morris.

Some of the activities were: assisting in the production of Brigadoon, hosting the first an¬ nual Valley District Drama Festival, the production of the spring play and a trip to Virginia Museum of Modern Art Theatre. Masque and Blade felt that the first annual Valley District Drama Festival was one of the biggest events at the Gap in a long time. It was an expanded district one-act play festival and a full day of workshops. English classes were focused toward a study of drama of some sort during that week.

SCA—71 THE GOLDEN BISON CAPTURES MEMORIES The Golden Bison Staff started its work in August when they collected ads. When school opened, the staff met twice a week to learn the fundamentals of publishing an annual, such as: drawing layouts, taking pictures, and writing copy. Our representative from Hunter Publishing Company, Mr. Charles Garrison, came and helped in making the many changes in the 1971 Golden Bison. As the first deadline drew near, the staff quickly understood the time, effort, and concern of editing an annual. With each new deadline, everyone put forth the effort needed to help make the changes and put the new ideas to work for you. The staff sincerely hopes the 1971 edition of The Golden Bison will, in the future, bring back many pleasant memories of your life at the Gap. 72—The Golden Bison Sue Taylor, Linda Cox, Linda Carter, Denise Shiflet, Katie Simmons, Sandy Wood, Joe Jackson, Bonnie Benson.

Buffalo Gap faced tough competition this year as we moved up to Valley District. This year’s team responded to their new coach, Mr. Bill Howe, with the biggest turnout in Gap history with over forty names on the roster. The Bison opened the season with a 30-6 victory over Fort Defiance. The only other impressive victory was our Homecoming game with Riverheads. Ricky Shiflet, whom the Bison describe as “tuff,” was recognized as this year’s most valu¬ able player. He was also recognized as all¬ district linebacker. Hunter Crosby, who has thrown the ball well and has proven he can keep it for good yard¬ age was recognized as all district defensive back. Ronnie Young, who is exceptionally strong, caught the Bison fan’s attention right much this season and was recognized as all-district defensive end.

This spirit paid off as their season ended with a 4-2 record. This year ' s team established the first winning season the Baby Bison have had. 16 Fort Defiance 20 The proud captains were Kent Keller, Eddie Pitsenbarger, and Dickie Thacker.

After winning the first game against the new Stuarts Draft Cougars, the next win did not come until the Bison brought down the Streaks of Harrisonburg, making Buffalo Gap the first county school from the former District V to defeat a city school. The remainder of the season had its ups and downs. Although they had to face teams such as Turner Ashby, Broadway, Waynesboro, and Harrisonburg, the Bison and Coach Lilly ended the season with an 8-10 record and seventh place in the district standings. Thus the team was able to go to tournament which was held at University Hall in Charlottesville. They lost to second seeded Broadway in the quarter finals. Players who made big contributions this season were: Ronnie Young—best field goal percentage and best offensive and defensive rebounding; Tony Fox—best percentage of foul shots; and John Withers—season total of 212 points, average 11.1. Other team members who did not establish records contributed at times when it counted. Team captains were Scott Weller, Tony Fox, and Ronnie Young.

The 1970-71 Baby Bison were led to a 9-9 finish by their cap¬ tains, Ernie Reeves and Steve Collins. This year’s team members showed much potential for future varsity participation and, according to Coach Bell, were all “most valuable players.’’ Where teams of the past played a man-to-man defe nse, this season’s Junior Varsity team used a zone defense.

Coached by Mr. Thompson, they had several heartbreaking losses, such as the ones with Stuarts Draft and 23 Stuarts Draft 34 John Wayland. Regardless of the final results as far as wins and losses, the lesson learned in teamwork made it all worthwhile. For some, this 39 John Wayland 40 experience will be useful in J.V. and Varsity participation. Row One: Phil Collins, Fred Blackwell, Sidney Ailer, Mike Argenbright, Andy Gutshall, Dean Withers.

The team hustled to a 5-11 finish, with most of the games being fairly close. In the District V tournament Buffalo Gap won over Riverheads in the first game, and played for the championship against Wilson. Wilson finally won 3-2 in a disputed contest.
