It was the first official day of school for the 1984-85 year. Vet. before day one. Stuco had already had their Back-to-School Dance, and the football Bisons had already met a challenge, at home, with their season opener. Right — we were already moving rapidly before it really began. ktoud PZQj 'nopod Layout: Gina Peters A new face — Superintendent. Tom Darnell greeted the student body with warmth, sincerity and humor. The 1984 annuals were received during the late fall of the 1985 school year. Even though this was a long wait for most students it was worth it due to the fact that the book contained spring events for the very first time. above: the new sign in front of the school given by the student council and the graduating class of '84. lecKeno stone irtimed TIMES When people remember their life, they re- member the good times, the Fast Times. But there is another very big part of life that is conveniently forgotten about, and they are the Rough Times. The definitions for Rough Times vary from not being able to do something, to a close friend s death. Everyone has had their share of rough times. To some people a rough time is like a labyrinth, or maze, in life, or a test of endurance which will end eventually. It may seem to many that the trials in life will be never ending. Rough Times, in school though, can vary a great deal. To some people, going to school is a rough time. To others it is taking tests, such as Linda Tuck in KBFL. or as Becky Schwarz getting ready for a speech tourna- ment. School, in and of itself, has all of the rules and regulations of outside life, but to the students the rules seem heightened to the point of unbearable pains. A particular Rough Time this year was when Mr. Reynolds was taken ill in the middle of the year. But. the kids banded together wishing him well. Reynolds made it back and the reactions towards him made him feel very glad to be back. Mr. Reynolds was also blessed with a daughter during his illness. GET WELI MR. REYNOLDS WE MISS YOU Good times were different for everyone. As the old saying goes. To each his own.” Sometimes we thought Mrs. Gillispie's English III classes were THE BEST OF TIMES and then she gave us one of her famous unit tests and they became THE’ WORST OF TIMES. The weekends seemed to be when everyone had the most fun. Cruising around town after the ball games on Friday night or any other night, for that matter, was a popular pastime. A big group of friends piled into one car. just having fun. was their intent. There was usually a party to go to. and that was where they were off to. The other options for our good times were going to Springfield to a movie, shopping, eating, or just wasting time. Some of us had dates to go on. THE TIMES OF Ol'R LIVES. Those loves that hit everyone at sometime through their school years. Some of them seemed like they would last us a lifetime and then, when they ended, we were over them in no time at all. Life goes on. To most students, school was never considered really good times. Yet. after you’ve spent twelve years of your life there, looking back, you did have fun. Oh. not doing your four pages of algebra, or Mrs. Cole’s composition papers, or even dissecting that grasshopper in Mr. Ben- net’s Biology I. Fun, were the times you had in between classes with your friends, eating lunch, in study hall, or even playing hooky from your classes. •’GOOD TIMES ARE BEING WITH NATHAN OR MY GIRL- FRIENDS AND GOING SOME- PLACE BESIDES BUFFALO. -GINA PETERS ■■■■■■■■ Chris Manning.

Quiet times, a time to be alone with your innermost thoughts, to get in touch with yourself. It’s a time to think deep about one particular thing, or a time to let your mind drift from one thought to the next. One can be by oneself all alone when drifting off into the minds subconsciousness or perhaps drift off while in a large group, like in a classroom. It is very important for a person to have time set aside every once in a while just to soak in new things that have been happening in life or just to sit back and fantasize. This is a time when people can get in touch with their feelings without any outside disturbances. It can be sitting in a room with the stereo blaring for some people, and for others it could be to take a stroll in the woods. These are the pleasant times that we encounter, but quiet times are not always pleasant. Right before the big test the whole classroom is so silent that you can hear the butterflies flying around in every students stomach in the room. You can feel the teachers eyes burning a hole in the back of your head, ready to pounce on you if you make the slightest movement. Athletes especially hate silence down in the locker room after the big game that they lost, because that silence means that they'll pay the price for it at the next practice. The quiet time is a time to share your most private secrets with that someone special, or to be around someone you really care about. 8 Layout: .’ancy Kennedy Pl9 , and Student Body President oll963, a 18th (Glenda Sweaney. in bac k oundv •4.

Lydia Massif 16 SENIOR ACTIVITIES During the course of our senior year we had many days in which to prepare for the big event — GRADUATION!! Early in the year we had to order announcements, name cards, memory books, class keys and other '85- momentos. We always conducted these business transactions in the cafeteria where we reluctantly gave our money to our Herff Jones representative. To prepare us for our future, College Day was held in the fieldhouse where many colleges and armed forces came to inform us of what they had to offer. We were alloted 20 minute sessions with any colleges that we were interested in. Whether we were planning for our future or not. College Day was fun because w-e got out of classes and got to spend time with our friends. Decisions, decisions, decisions! Our class was made up of so many different personalities and so many various views of opinions that no matter what decisions had to be made about graduation there was always some kind of controversy. — Should we have our graduation gowns in black or some other color? What kind of class song should we use? Should we have outrageous class colors or should we choose subdued ones? And so on. But after all the friction was settled we finally put our heads together and made the decisions. In the last couple weeks of being a senior, com- mittees were formed for senior wills, histories, and prophecies. The people on the committees had a great time thinking up all the funny things to read out loud to the whole school on Class Day. And finally the days came when we practiced for graduation and baccalaureate. We not only got out of a couple of classes, we got to spend time together as a WHOLE class. Although all the decisions about graduation were not happily accepted by everyone, we can all say that it was fun trying to make the decisions about one of the most important events in our life, gradu- ation. We wouldn't have missed it for the world! Norman. Greg, Joel, and Todd having fun during College Day An officer showed what the U.S. Army had to offer. Measuring for caps and gowns? Barbara L..

Angie Taber, and Becky McClure signed memory books under the flag pole in front of the school. Seniors frequently got bored at Baccalaureate and Gradu- ation practice. Seniors patiently listens to their class advisors during Baccalaureate practice. ZDorl of un Grad night 1985. Worlds of Fun. Kansas City . . May 3 the seniors of BHS loaded on the buses and headed to K.C. for a night of freedom. The long Five hour bus trip to Kansas City, after almost a full day of school, was exhausting. A few tried to seek rest for the big night ahead — but ghetto blasters and general excitement, prevailed. After a loud and hot bus ride everyone was relieved to get there. Everyone was just as re- lieved to get back on the buses after a full night of fun. Most students found the bus ride back a good time to get some sleep. Everyone joyfully jumped off the buses for the short walk to the entrance. Above: Stacey Bowman and Dawn Smith. Becky McClure and Lisa Rowland decided to rest before the night of fun. Scott Gargus and Julia Rit- ter take a break from the fun to rest and talk. Left: Connie Alff was one of many who re- gressed in years to enjoy the carousel ride at the park. Con- nie is one of several stu- dents who was either married or engaged to be married. Students also jammed to the Greg Kihn Band and Fodo, musical artists. Mr. Woods after the mind bog- gling ride with the sen- ior class on a bus for 5 hours, found a little relief by calling home once he had ar- rived. 20 ANDY LEE ATTERBERRY Funeral services for Andy Lee At- terberry were held at 2 p.m. Mon- day, Dec. 10 in Montgomery-Viets Funeral Chapel with the Rev. Mark Mildren and the Rev. Alien Wright officiating. Music was by Wayne Lemons who sang “Farther Along” and “I Know Who Holds Tomorrow” accompanied by the organist, Mrs. Jo Ann Viets. Casketbearers were members of the Buffalo Winged Bison Composite Squadron: Jerry Arterberry, Buddy Bradley, Jon Bradley, Tony Farkas, Dale Hamilton and Bill Smith. Honorary- escorts were Rusty Andrews, Art Brown, Carrie Buffington, Chap. George Davis, Jonna Lambeth, Scott McCowan, James Patterson, Buddy Sartin and Herbert Trout- man. Interment was in Gardens of Memory Cemetery under direction of Montgomery-Viets Funeral Home of Buffalo. Andy Lee Atterberry was bom Nov. 22, 1966 at St. Louis, the son of Hollis 0. and Neda Evelyn vPankey) Atterberry. He died Dec. 7 at the age of 18 years and 15 days. He was saved and joined the I ouisburg Baptist Church. Since he went to live with Gene and Noma Coltrin in June, he had been atten- ding the Buffalo United Methodist Church with them. He was a dedicated member of the Civil Air Patrol and was proud of the many friends he made there. The CAP and computer work were his two greatest loves. He is survived by Gene and Noma Coltrin of the home at Buffalo; his father, Hollis Atterberry of Louisburg; one sister, Carla Highfill of Buffalo; one brother, Dale At- terberry of IiOuisburg; and his grandfather, Carl Pankey of Buf- falo. He was preceded in death by his mother in 1977. UA. •Wl cLtVjiA'YvxxXi-v • wvXS iwm j a «. OJbV Vw UKM. , 'L Vstt vmcwj frvxIN VvOt v,(5 • -rrvAJXJ X .v,yvr. J Vw, £ C � Ka. j .

He was so brilliant. On this one boy you lavished so many talents that could have enriched your world. He had already received so many honors, and there wer so many honors to come. fhy then? In our agony we ask. Why him? Why not someone less gifted? Some one less good? Some hop-heade, rioter, thief, brute, hood? Yet we know, even as we demand what seems to us a rational answer, that we are only intensifying our grief. Plunging deeper into the blind and witless place where all hope is gone. A dark lost place where our own gifts will be blunted and ruin replace the goodness he brought and wished for us. Instead, let us thank you for the marvel that this boy was. That we can say good-bye to him without shame or regret, rejoicing in the blessed years he was given to us. Knowing that his bright young life, his many gifts, have not truly been stilled or wasted, only lifted to a higher level where the rest of us can't follow yet. Separation? yes. Loss? Never. For his spirit will be with us always. And when we meet him again we will be even more proud. •Arrfy 1 a peroas , 1 11 n«vor forgot. 1 11 troasur« th «.«morles for ver.

The seniors left behind friends as they moved on in life. The intangible quality of brotherly love was felt through- out the 84-85 year as the seniors strove to make their last year in high school, the best. Graduation signaled the end of the one way of life and the start of another. Moments of happiness poured like water over the months of the year, while sadness sometimes put a shadow of gloom over their lives, but the year went on. As the days faded into the past, memories compounded in the minds of many. The Senior Ensemble sings to the audience a song of remembrance. Friendship was the major influence in a senior s life as shown throughout this page. THE CLASS OF 1985 25 These poems came from seniors that attended Buffalo High School Sometimes I have to stop and sigh Just to assure myself that I won't cry. I can't believe it's our senior year. Graduation is drawing very near. Remember the good times that we've shared Remember the times I cried You were there. .. . you really cared. You are a special friend. I know you’ll be here until the end. At graduation, will we laugh, will we cry I don't think our tears will ever dry. Yet it is a happy time, it is also sad. When it is ever, will we be glad So, stop and take the time. And let out a great big sigh. Can you assure yourself that you won't cry Amy Blake As we reach out our hand The diploma we grasp, While we think of our memories Of the years in the past. Tears fill our eyes Because it's all gone. We re starting a new life. We have to move on. We hope friends will keep in touch As the years pass us by. Although it hurts inside We ll try not to cry. We think of kindergarten And our first day. Now we’ve reached the end We are going away. How do you say good-bye To friends who mean so much Will there be time To sincerely keep in touch? You'll always have the memories Of your school years from day one. Don't think of school as ending — Think a new life has begun. Anonymous :C Army Above and below, seniors gave their futures some serious thought as college, vocational and military recruiters visited the BUS campus for its annual College Day. Top, right. Senior James Rowland en- tered the Army on June 12. A polling was taken of the senior class. They were asked what their plans are for the future.

Cole, Advisor Jan Alford Science Charles Bud Bennett Biology Ronald Condren Math Frank Sergent Math Miss Alford illustrates the importance of science in her classes. Mrs. Gillispic explains the use of mathematical theories to her students. Mathematics and Science had an im- portant part in a student s life. Some may not think so, but in the real world, one soon realizes the real value in it. Math- ematics is the applied study of numbers, measurements, and space. Science is the knowledge of facts and laws, arranged in an orderly system. Starting in the 1984-85 school year, science requirements had been increased. The math and science courses offered at B1 IS are: Biology I II, physics, general science, earth science, ge- ometry. trig., math analysis, Algebra I II, general math, consumer math, pre-cal- culus. pre-algebra, 7 8 grade math, 7 8 grade science. Chemistry I II. Some students said math science helped their learning abilities. Lisa Rowland stated that chemistry helped her understand experi- ments. Sciences math are explained as: a search for evidence, a way to solve prob- lems, and a key to the future. Layout: Teresa Witzman 29 PRACTICAL ACTS One question that Practical Arts never have to ask their students is Why are we learning this? because Practical Arts classes teach skills that most of us will use after we graduate. Home Economics, for instance, teaches basic survival skills that students are able to use in everyday life. When asked what her kids enjoyed most about her classes Mrs. Kennedy replied, Cooking Lab., because they get to fix new dishes and then eat them. There is also a decidedly relaxed atmosphere during lab. because it's not a structured classroom. To graduate from BHS one practical arts credit is required. Many BHS students surpass that requirement. The majority of these students are business students. Business classes such as Accounting I 8c II. Basic Business. Business Law. and Typing are necessary if you are planning on opening your own business. Becky McClure, senior, said. I learned how to work with money and numbers. I have also learned how to use my time wisely. (she says this about Accounting.) Basic Business is essentially what the name implies, the Basics’ of Business. Typing is a personal skill that students can use for themselves, in college or work. According to Mrs. Smith, Business Law teaches the students enough about law to help themselves if they're in a situation, they'll know what to do. So if you're planning on surviving in this hectic world of ours, some good advice would be to take a practical arts class. I guarantee you'll be able to use it.

Most stu- dents take this class in order to understand and get along with people in life. Just as one of our history teachers. Mr. Dave Reynolds, communicated, ' I try to give students a gen- eral understanding and try to get them to apply it to present day life. Above left is a photo of Mr. Kennedy com- municating with one of his students. Above right is Mrs. Glor teaching her class informa- tion that shall be useful to them in our fast- paced lives. Below is Mr. Reynolds teaching his class in an entertaining way which is often necessary in order for us to want to pay atten- tion and to want to learn. Dave Reynolds Am. Hist., Wld.

Elhard was actively involved in Buffalo Gals and has composed most of the music they perform, and is known for being a perfectionist. SUSANNE POWERS, known to her cronies as E.S.P.. taught vocal music and music theory. She enjoys a wide variety of music and has an extensive record collection. In the spring. Miss Powers took a wide variety of B.H.S. students to District Music Festival at S.M.S.U. LONNIE GLOR taught Art and Advanced Art. In his spare time he enjoys making architectual drawings and he also makes beautiful stained glass windows and ornaments. Most of Mr. Glor's students agree that he is very talented. L. Glor believes that, anyone can be in art because intelligence is not a key factor for creativity and creativity is what art is all about.' MARY LOU BECKNER was the new-est edition to the Fine Arts department. I ler students affectionately called her Mary Moo. She has been involved in many theatrical produc- tions, is president of the Dallas Countv Arts Council and a member of the Springfield Regional Opera. She has taught at Drury Summerscape; which is a camp for students with high I.Q.'s for two years. Mrs. Beckner’s favorite part of teaching is working with the kids.

Jodi Villines. when asked what she thought of her P.E. class, stated. I have enjoyed my advanced P.E. class. In my class we learned to laugh with and at each other ... Most people went into their P.E. classes with the attitude that they needed the credit, it was easy, and it gave them a break in the long school day. Some bad attitudes toward P.E., in fact, changed to good. The students learned some things they never knew before. Things that could last them a lifetime of fun and recreation. One thing that set Buffalo apart from other schools in their co-ed P.E. classes and having all male P.E. teachers. Most students didn't mind that fact, but as I.aura Hawley said. Sometimes the boys get too rough, as in dodgeball. I don't mind the co-ed classes, or all male teachers, just as long as I get my credit. Darin Barnes Boys Basketball. Health. P.E.

Students who are fascinated by the sound of purring engines, or maybe troubled by a ping in one of their pur- ring engines take Auto Mechanics . This course is a two year program cen- tered around the internal parts of a car, engines, exhaust, brakes, ignitions, etc. Students generally work indoors, and dirt grease are common elements to work with. Students who participate IN THIS PROGRAM usually participate in many different agricultural areas. They learn crop care and cultivation, along with various techniques of livestock care and breeding. These students par- ticipate in state contests and are major contributors of their time to this pro- gram.

Doug Soden Students who are interested in wiring and re-wiring various household appliances learn safe, efficient methods in Heating and Refrigeration classes. One major project in this class is the installation and wiring of heating and air conditioning units in the houses built by the carpentry class. Hours of actual experience is a major advantage in this two year program. The electronic computer programming class is available to area juniors and seniors, and is generally considered to be a two year program. This course offers a solid basis for further, specialized training and also includes the first stages in the operation of microcomputers, and BASIC program- ming.

Jr. high counselor While all of the B.H.S. teachers are spe- cial in their own ways, there are those who often don't receive much attention. They are the teachers with special interest in the students of B.H.S. The people who open- heartedly reach out to each student which comes w'ithin their reach to unblock and clear out the difficulties of each student they touch. There are the Jr. Sr. high counselors who are there to help each student from the onset of their 7th grade education up to the eve of their commencement program. The others are the L.D. teachers, the ones who help to cross the threshold of vagueness and misunderstanding of those who need that little extra help. There is also the Librarian who gives help to students doing reports and helps those who need to become familiar with the running and rules of the li- brary. Time moves swiftly through the years leaving its marks with careful planning. Over the years special teachers have given so much to ensure the quality of education to the students of B.H.S., and help to arrange the additional education of their students. education disorders Layout: Teresa Witzman JUNIORS 40 Lara Barnhart Ricky Bennett David Blair Travis Bowers Jay Brace Terry Bradley Billy Brown Carl Brown Pat Bryant Brett Burton Shawn Burton Gina Bybee Ricky Cannon Randy Case Glen Chastine Laura Cibert Kim Clampitt Victor Clark David Clemmons Tammy Cline John Crowder Randy Davidson - ite Times are ever changing, never standing still, the old things get forgotten as the new things someday will; but we are a class to remember and always will be.

The average person at B.H.S. spends approximately $20 on the weekend. Janet Hill liked to, Go to Springfield and cruise Kearney. Sandi Haymes said she liked to go. Anywhere David wants to take me. Many students liked to PARTY whether alone or going to a Big Bash' with their friends or dates. We had the times of our lives on the weekend. But other students had different ideas about the weekend. Jerry Owens says that he liked to. Sleep because I'm tired! Like most students. Jane Lane liked Friday because she could. Get out of school for two days. Weekends are important to everyone because it gives them a chance to rest up from the week before and get ready for the dreaded Mondays. The general concensus though, was that the good times were had on the weekend. Joelle Hillhouse says she had the best times this year. Going to Arkansas with the ball team; singing with the Dynamics; and just being with my friends.

ZELLA DUNLAP 'I like the fact that prom has changed and we can bring dates. JULIE KAY I like the breaking of tradition with prom and also the Freshman have to have more credits to graduate. The majority of students seem more academically inclined. Things have really picked up and started going places. ANGIE MAYFIELD: It has been all around okay but the school days and events that took place seemed as though many of my classmates really didn't care about what happened. Like Prom for example.

Each student indicated their preference from favorite singer, to favorite radio station. Most students picked heavy metal groups and T.V. shows with a lot of action and an exciting plot.

When the bell rings you will be released to go to the assembly Does this phrase sound familiar.'' It was the phrase that our principal, Mr. Willis, blared over the intercom system. Assemblies were few and scattered throughout the year. The first assembly was the first-day-of-the- year assembly, in which Mr. Willis introduced teachers and explained school rules. The majority of assemblies were sponsored by Stu-Co. They held a Talent Assembly on November 1. those who participated proved just how' much courage they had when they got out in front of the entire student body to do their things. During the week of November 12-16. which was National Edu- cation Week, Stu-Co had an assembly in which they honored the teachers of Buffalo High School with flowers, plaques, certificates, etc. The Christmas As- sembly on December 21, included the teacher s choir and two skits performed by Stu-Co and the drama class. In early spring Chaplain Jim Post told us the horrors of prisons, drugs, and alcohol. The School of the Ozarks Swing Choir performed up- beat tunes for B.H.S.'ers. The Stu-Co Fun Assembly and Awards Assembly were the last assemblies of the y.ear. Although few, there were still Pep Assemblies during the football season to cheer the team on to victory before the games.

Above is Trisha Doty. Jamie Beckncr and Brian Portman. What are dances' According to McMIL- LANS MODERN DICTIONARY the word dance means, movement with mea- sured or rhythmic steps to music But to BHS students it means getting together with friends for an evening of fun. Although there weren t that many occasions for dances at BUS, the students who attended enjoyed the ume they spent there. Every one attending the dances must have purchased a ticket before the date of the dance. Tickets were bought in the upstairs office where Patsy kept track of sales. Tickets cost $y,00 for a single ticket or S5jOO for a couple. Dances are restricted for high school students only, with the exception of homecoming dances. Leather was a popular form of ctothing worn at dances along with neon, blue jeans, and of course white socks on the field house floors At homecoming David Kirksy and Kayla Bates try several different steps, as shown in this time lapse photo taken by the graphic arts department. Even jr. high realize that slow dances are just as much fun as the fast dances.

Well, that was the problem that the PTA was faced with, on September 22, 1984. It was the day they had set for the annual PTA Country Days. Did PTA panic.' You're darn right they did! But they re- alized what they must do — and the show did go on, indoors, that is. in the school gymnasi- um. Although the sky was dark and cloudy, all this dreariness did not seem to dampen the spirits of those who attended Country Days. According to some, having it indoors this year, gave it a carnival spirit, like PTA carnivals of the past. Ray Dean Phillips, instructor and PTA officer said, It was alright for a rainy day, but it real- ly should have been held out- doors because it was too hot. too crowded, and hard on the gyms. PTA Country Days has been a regular event since 1944. when it first began and has been held every year except 1975. This year, the FrA earned $7,172 which was spent on var- ious school oriented projects, sponsored by PTA. The PTA ac- cepted a major funding of Tenco Cooperative Film ser- vices. Other projects, field trips, and scholarships were planned as the year continued. so Layout: Bill Elliot LONG LANE CARNIVAL A community gathering. The rooms were filled with games to play and things to buy. There was a cake walk, bingo, even a general store with handmade items, plus a lot of other fun things to do. Although there were a lot of things to do, most everyone was standing in the halls or sitting in the gym talking, laughing, and reminiscing, on Saturday night, November 3, 1984. The Long Lane Carnival really hasn't changed much over the years. The coronation was exciting. The girls were in their dressing room putting on their dresses, wondering whose dress was the prettiest, or if their hair was all in place. The boys were thinking. I can't believe I'm doing this, I have to wear this dumb suit and walk with that yucky” girl. But. they all finally got dressed and were ready to find out who the lucky two would be. When the lights dimmed the gym became quiet and the candidates began walking down the aisle. The Long Lane P.T.A. Carnival made enough money to spend in many different ways. Some of the money went to Channel 21 and to Tenco. They also got tape recorders and science equipment for the classrooms. Kindergarten got a new toy box and 6th grade went on a trip to Silver Dollar City. The money went to good use and the community and P.T.A. made it happen. 6th grade: Kenneth Strickland Meribah Randleman 5th grade: Jeff Stidham Patricia Anglen 2nd grade: Randy Snow Tracy Scurlock 1st grade: Brandon Bone Crystine Smith The Long Lane King and Queen were featured in the Buffalo Christmas Parade. 4th grade: Chris Zakharoff Holly Nixon 3rd grade: Jason Jones Angie McCullough Kindergarten: Curtis Waters Brandi Collins Escort: Jason Hall Flower girl: Sara Fisher Layout: Dawn Pierce 51 This year's Football Festival candidates were chosen by the varsity and junior varsity football squads. Four Senior candidates were chosen from a field of seven, and those four girls went on to vie for the title of 1984 Festival Queen The Queen s title can only be obtained by winning an election in which the entire student body votes.

The most memorable thing about Festival '84 was trying to keep from falling off the top of Paul Phillips' Corvette!

(Amy Blake, with escort Darrin Jones) The thing I'll remember most about Football Festival '84 was the rain and the freezing cold weather. (Meri Phillips, with escort Doug Richardson) IT'S RAINING AGAIN!!! This statement seemed to be restated daily the week of September 24th through the 28th, as festival activities splashed their way into action. An ironic aspect of Football Festival '84 was the decision made by Student Council, on theme. The 1984 theme was, We re Not Gonna Take It In '84. and it really seemed to convey a special meaning throughout the week, as the rain kept tumbling down. While many students believed the theme referred to the record setting rainfall and the cancellation of the bonfire, others expressed very versatile ideas as to its meaning. Paula Dampier, a student in the senior class, stated simply. WeTe trying to improve. and Scott Gargus, senior class President conveyed. I think it s symbolic of the effort that students are making to eradicate ignorance in the public school system. Another exciting aspect of Festival '84 was the traditional Spirit Week” in which students dressed each morning in pre-determined styles. These styles ranged anywhere from a pair of sweats to wild hairdos and sunglasses. While festival week was more than a little chaotic. Friday night’s game and coronation brought the festivities to an end. The coronation started at seven o'clock with candidate s cars driving slowly around the track. The Bisons lost their 1981 Festival game, but spirits were still relatively high while students made their way to the fieldhouse for the after-game dance.

Despite the onslaught of bad weather, cancelled classes, and postponed athletic events, this year s bas- ketball homecoming was held February 15, after being cancelled previously. Everyone started getting into the spirit'' of things with Spirit Week starting on -Monday and lasting thru Friday. Some of the things done thru the week were wearing sunglasses and messed up hair, T-shirt and tie day, fatigue day, and school color day. The elections for homecoming queen were held at noon, Friday to determine who the winner would be. Tina Smith was crowned the festival's queen that night by her brother Todd. The other candidates were Lisa McMillian escorted by David Kirksey, Roxanne Hurd escorted by Dean Galbraith and Dawn Pierce who was escorted by Darin Jones. The junior attendant wasjoell Hillhouse who was escorted by Scott McCowan, Stacy Simmons was the sophomore attendant. Her escort was Brent Stanton. The freshman attendant was Cinnamon McMillan who was escorted by Kyle Jones. In the Varsity Game action the Bisons played the Logan- Rogersville Wildcats. The Bisons fell to the number one ranked team in Southwest Missouri 57-50. This was the last home game for the basketball team, so after the game there was some feeling of gloom in the air be- cause this was the last time that the seniors would play in front of the home crowd. 54 Basketball Homecoming Festival t'pper left hand corner Tina Smith, Festival Queen, above, game action.

The Future Farmers of America held their annual Barnwarming on October 20th. 1984. The event was held at the home of member Curt Rakin. Although the Barnwarming is an annual event held by the organization, this year's was something new and different. Barnwarming is usually a dance and dinner at the vo-tech school, this year however the event was changed to a hayride and bonfire. Instead of a dinner they had an informal type of meal, which consisted of pop. hotdogs. chips and roasted marshmallows. The crowning was held before the hayride. Curt Rankin presided over the ceremony. The candidates and their escorts were as follows: Senior. Becky Tewell escorted by Douk Richardson: Junior.Julie Ritch escorted by Brian Ragland; Sophomore. Missi Bramwell escorted by Robbie Franklin, and Freshmen. Nancy Kuhns was escorted by Brian Howe. Last year s queen. Nancy Kennedy, was escorted by Wayne Vest. The candidates are picked by the FFA members and the queen is elected by the people in attendance at the event. All candidates are members of FHA.

'TW A VOfjick 01 Clou 60 May 10, 1985 — that was the ' biggie” that most juniors and their class sponsors prayed” would go RIGHT, and juniors and seniors alike looked forward to with great anticipation. PROM NIGHT. The night before the big event was spent decorating the field house, for 1985 was a 'first for BHS’s proms. Instead of the usual locale of the Mallory cafeteria, the juniors opted to only have the field house as their location. They also elected to have tidbits instead of the traditional banquet. Most thoroughly enjoyed the vast array of goodies catered by Bon Appetite', from Springfield. Class Sponsor Lonnie Glor, along with a hard working junior class decorating committee, transformed the field house into a masterpiece that was fitting of the prom’s theme — A Touch of Class”. The organizational efforts of Glor and committee workers had all decoration complete by 9:30 p.m.! Attendance at the prom was fine, but diminished quickly after the toast and program. Few were left attending much before the actual ending time. Perhaps this was so, because many had made after-the-Prom plans. Those who did remain, enjoyed dancing to music provided by KTTS. Selected sophomore class members assisted with supplying the food tables, and in the capacity of doormen. At the conclusion of the evening, all received a keepsake glass with the prom's theme printed on it. Bryan Elhard had a photography area set-up near an exit ramp, to take photos of couples. He kept busy most of the evening, as the majority took advantage of getting their photos. The materials for this layout were incomplete and re- ceived after the beginning of the 85-86 school term. The density of the photos are poor due to damage. The majority of photos intended for use, were too damaged for use. J. Cole, Advisor 61 Christmas lurry Miss Merry Christmas candidates clockwise; Kim Dibben, Joelle Hillhouse. Lisa Vest and Shawn Sample. Since its origin in the mid-1940's, the parade and its queen have been a Buffalo tradition. Christmas time was an active season for the Bisons. They not only held an election for the annual Miss Merry Christmas on December 6, but also the student body participated in collecting canned foods and toys, which were placed under a big Christmas tree in the fieldhouse lobby for the needy in Dallas County. The food and toys collected were turned over to the Ministerial Alliance for distribution. The Miss Merry Christmas candidates were as follows: Kim Dibben (senior; Joelle Hillhouse (junior); Lisa Vest (sopho- more); and Shawn Sample (freshman). Kim Dibben was announced the winner and crowned at the Christmas Dance on December 7. The next day the Christmas Parade was held, where Kim and the other candidates reigned over the parade. Kim Dibben was crowned Miss Merry Christ- Kim. during the highlight of her reign. Cindy Staples and Eddie Jenson boogie at the dance. When students donated items. Evonne Glor, Stu. Co. Pres., commented, Student Council was proud of the Christmas spirit shown by the BHS students. 62 Layout. Barbara Layland AUTOGRAPHS BUS PRESENTS THE CURIOUS SAVAGE The CURIOUS SAVAGE was with no doubt, one of BHS's finest plays that has ever been put on. Directed by first year drama coach, Mary Lou Beckner, the play was a whopping success. Even though the number of play-goers was down from previous years, in the eyes of the ones there, it was the best play they had ever seen. Mrs. Savage (played by Julia Ritter) was being commit- ted to a mental home by her 3 step children (Cindy Shep- ard. Edward Workman, Eric Rodreguiz.) After Mrs. Sa- vage's husband’s death, he left her a lot of money to use at her desire. Her children, who all were independently wealthy, wanted the money for themselves. Trying every- thing possible to get it from their step-mother, they finally reverted to committing her. Before being committed, though, Mrs. Savage hides the bonds. From the moment she enters the home to when she leaves there is nothing but hilarity. At the home, Mrs. Savage becomes very close to the guests. They included: Michel Robson, who is a very plain girl who sees herself as a great beauty; Jamie Beckner, who was shot down in WW II and thinks his face is hideously scarred; Bill Elliot, who considers himself as a great violinist, when in reality he can't play a note; Dawn Smith, a mother whose child was taken from her, so she reverts to a doll; Becky Schwarz, who was told some 20 years ago to shut-up (by her husband), and did; and finally. Jim Buckels and Marilynn Lewy, who are the two who in essence run the home. Moments of this particular play are very moving when the audience is shown what loving human beings these inhabitants of the home are. It was a mixture of humor and sadness — as is true in real life. For as has been said, And if I laugh at any mor- tal thing — tis that I may not weep. FUN NIGHT A new event for Buffalo High School was Fun Night. It was held throughout the school on the night of April 12th from 7:30 until midnight. There were various activities that the students participated in during the evening. The events were Boys Basketball Hot Shot contest in which David Kirksey came out victorious. There was also a Girls Basketball Hot Shot contest in which Stacy Simmons came out the winner. On the other side of the gym, a Football Hot Shot competition was held. The winners of it were Brad Johnston and Janet Hill. For the hefty eaters, there was the donut eating contest. Randy Williams and Kevin Cook took this event. The team games that took place were volleyball matches consisting of eight players instead of six, and they played for thirty minutes. The winning team was determined by the best two out of three. Two other team competitions were: pass the orange relay and pass the lifesaver which explain themselves. There were two movies shown. MR. MOM and ALL OF ME. The last event held was the dance marathon which was held from eleven until midnight. The winners of it were: David Kirksey, Kyla Bates, Terry Russell, Amy Kennedy and Trenda Carnahan. Various prizes were donated and given to the winners during the evening. The prizes were $5.00 gift certificates from local restaurants and fast food places in Buffalo. Fun Night was sponsored by B.H.S.'s Student Council. INTERVIEWS Mrs. Cully, Did you enjoy Fun Night? I think it would be a good 'regular' but it should be made shorter because the kids got tired the last hour. Billy Elliot — No, I didn't enjoy Fun Night because it was too scattered out. Janet Hill — Yes because I had fun playing volleyball. Brenda Randall — No, it was boring because there wasn't anyone there my age. Stacy Simmons — Yes, I played volleyball, attempted the football throw and won the Basketball Hot Shot contest. Amy Kennedy — Yes, I played volleyball, football and basketball contests and the bubble gum contest.” ATHLETICS CROSS COUNTRY Crosscountry members Back row. Shawn Clark, Bobby Dr cr. Erie Rodriquez.

Due to the fact that there were not enough girl members to run as a team, they competed individually. Shirley Dryer, a senior lady Bison Cross Country runner, went to State by placing 10th, out of the 15 girls wiko qualified for State, ar rhe 3A districtCompetition held at Lake Springfield. The State competition was held at Jefferson City in Iknfgh Park where Shirley Dryer placed 79th, out of the 145 girls who ran. 'T enjoyed going to State Jt was a L‘ od experience, but it was tough, quoted Shirley. Shane Wyatt, a freshman runner, missed going to State by 5 places because he came in 15th at the district competition, for only the top 10 runners could travel on to State com- , . petition. | Competition in Cross Country is a grueling experience. A runner has to run on rough terrain which includes running up and down steep hills for VI rniles umping over ditches in the ground, and slipping and sliding through mud. To sum it up. Cross Country coach George Blowers stated, Cross Coun- try running takes a lot of mental toughness. He also commented that the runners did an excellent job and they learned to work to- gether.

At Homecoming, for instance, the fieldhouse was filled to capacity with returning alumni and B.H.S. students. An unusual aspect of the season though, was that a bigger percentage of the community attended home games than in previous years. Last year the Bisons played more on ability than class ranking and there wasn't any specific senior leadership. When asked his views on the season Todd Smith replied. I found myself sitting a lot this season as opposed to starting nine games my sophomore year. But David Kirksey said. I was pleased with the outcome this year. The Varsity season consisted of 13 wins and 12 losses while the J.V. struggled with a record of 2 wins and 15 losses. Jerry Owens jumps high to tip the ball for a Bison victory. 76 Left to Right.

The 1985 baseball season proved to be a time for trials and testing as the Bisons ended the year with a 4 win — 12 loss record. While these statistics sound a little on the negative side, com- pared to the '84 season, they show definite improvement. Factors that may have had some impact on the season are the top quality competition the Bisons met on the field, and the lack of strong leadership from the upperclassmen. The Bisons played consistent ball against three of the top ball clubs in the confer- ence; these teams going on to place in the finals of COC District play. One other aspect of the season which may have handi- capped the team was the lack of leadership from the senior class. The squad, filled in key positions with underclassmen, although they participated well, the absence of these members and the lack of experience may have been a determining factor. We congratu- late the Bisons for faring as well as they did under such a hectic schedule, and we wish them the best of luck next year! STOP! Don't throw the ball! Here puppy, puppy . ..

Unfortunately, the first game of the season was rained out after only three innings of play. So the Bison softball players looked ahead to their next tournament which was at Richland on Septem- ber 15th. The Richland tourney consisted of four teams, each one meeting the other in competi- tion or. in other words, a round robin tourney. At 10:30 that day, the girls faced Crocker and downed them 4-0 in a close game. With one under their belts, the lady Bisons played Rolla and pulled a second game through with a score of 10-6. The third game was against the host team Richland and Buffalo came through victo- rious again, winning the tourney. District play- offs started on September 26, and the Lady Bi- sons travelled to Bolivar for the game. The weather was cold and damp but it didn’t seem to bother the Bison girls as much as it did Bolivar. Earlier in the season, the girls had lost to Bolivar but luck seemed to be with the girls, for they won 14 to 16. On Monday. October 1, the sec- ond game of districts was held at Rolla. The girls weren't as prepared for the game as their first. Wesphalia, beat th e Bisons eleven to one. This was the last game of the season for the girls, and their regular season record was four wins and four losses. 80 LADY BISON TRACK The official date for the girls track practice to begin was February 11th. The girls that participated in track knew what they had to accomplish for that first meet. It all began with conditioning. Conditioning means getting in shape by strenuous exercises, a weight program, and a lot of running. The first meet was at Lebanon. It was more or less a practice meet to see how the girls would do against competition. The first meet was here, against Bolivar and Marshfield with B.H.S. taking 2nd in team points. The next meet was March 28, at School of the Osage. The girls also took 2nd at this meet. April 9, the Lady Bisons went to the Republic Relays and placed 6th. The 13th they went to Bolivar and placed 6th again. April 16, was a Sophomore. Freshman meet. This was a non- scoring meet but it was excellent experience for the younger girls. The rest of the season went as follows, Logan Rogersville Relays 5th place; Buffalo Relays 2nd place; Waynesville relays 2nd place; Willard Relays 8th place. May 7th at C.O.C. the girls placed 5rh, Districts at Waynesville was the 11th and the girls took 6th there. Only the ones placing above 6th place at districts went on to sectionals Mav 18, at Logan Rogersville. Michel Robson was the only one who went to state May 25th, taking 5th place. 82 85 Weightlifting 98 -85 U)etjh+lifinj learn 'Richard Qdams Kenny 'Barnes Mike Hallemeier ChrisQnder n DannyTOrinkall Steve Cantrell '.Sean Barbw reed Ideey 6am Wilier N'iKe W i’ngc Curtio Henderson 'Brad £V� nS TfcndqCase Carl CanKfond Jerry SiricK lard Cuy+ Tonkin John Crowder Travis Bowers Jim Oiterbernj fray tio Id way Devi nGjreon Scoth Turner Dode Ram bo Jim Ki+CH Left: Randy Case grits his teeth to lift a dead-lift weight.

The sport actually was brought into effect during 84. Only in its second year at BHS did it show promise and begin to flourish under the coaching of Roger Hoenes. Weightlifting concerns 3 major types of lifts: the dead lift, the bench press, and the squat or cleans lift. Buffalo participated in two meets — an invita- tional or home meet, and the Stockton meet. Most of the boys enrolled in Weightlifting were off-season footballers. When asked how he felt about this year's performance, Coach Hoenes said. We made some overall gains and I think we are much stronger than last year. We still lack some consistency, but the kids have improved in that area also. Hoenes continued, We will continue to lift throughout the summer and I look for us to gain overall team strength each year. When asked about the future of BHS-lifting, it is a belief of many of the lifters themselves, that it will become as popular as football. The group was greeted with much enthusiasm by the BHS student body — especially its female por- tion. As one freshman girl stated, I got to the meets to see the legs, not to mention the bulging biceps! 86 Layout. Alccia Kay SOPHOMORES SOPHOMORES St'i Mt aJwtofi MMf! It’s not always easy to have what most grown-ups would call an adult outlook on life when you're a Sophomore in high school. Cars, dates, clothes, concerts, and pimples seem to be the chief areas for concern in your life, and homework just naturally seems less important. Parents and teachers pressing you to take the college prep courses; algebra, chemistry, geometry, and all the while you want to take advanced p.e. and general math. Friends constantly pressuring you to be more active in social activities that leave less and less time for studies. Which way do you go? The sophomore year of high school generally encompasses the adolescent ages of 15 16. These ages are proven to be highly frustrating and troubling years in a teenager’s life. Suddenly you’re old enough to drive and a new world opens up to you; and for some dating becomes optional. Still, parents have the authority to inflict curfew’s and make various other decisions in your world. How do teenagers learn to cope with the dreaded Adolescent Period in life.' Becoming involved in school activities and still carrying full academic loads; seems to be the answer for the 1984 85 sophomores. It is really amazing that this class can exhibit such enthusiastic attitudes toward everything they do. They usually represent the highest majority in class elections and the most school spirit in pep-assemblies. Their ability to provide dependable leadership qualities also becomes evident in the large numbers enrolled in advanced college prep courses.

The Seniors are involved in graduation. Sophomores seem to be left out. The new has worn off and they are too young for some of the activities that the older schoolmates are doing. Sophomores are special people. This year’s class has so much energy and enthusiasm to make their class one of the best at B.H.S. We ran an election and let the Sophomore class choose who they thought thought were the best out of all of their classmates. ALL of the Sophomres are the best. The ones who were chosen for the awards are just a few among many. The class of '8? strives for the best and succeeds!!! 94 CURRENT ISSUES N E W S 1984 85 was the year of starvation for millions. Newspapers, television screens, and even popular music hits brought home pictures and stories of the starving people of Ethiopia. For years we, as a na- tion, have tightened our grip on all the precious luxuries we've become accustomed to, and have turned blind eyes towards those less fortunate. 1984 85 seemed to be the year when we regained our sight, and our once blind eyes seemed to be facing grotesque pictures of millions of starving people. The United States suddenly became involved in a national effort to help the starving people of Africa, but the true extent of their suffering is just now beginning to surface. The reality of the situation is overwhelming and the main question we are faced with today is if perhaps we, as a nation, became in- volved too late. 96 India mourned the assassination of its Prime Minister, Indira Gandhi, and plunged into a chain of violent acts by several opposing political parties. A five pound baby girl suffering from a birth defect called hypoplastic left-heart syndrome became the fo- cal point of the nation, as doctors tried to correct this fatal defect by transplanting a baboon heart into the two week old infant. The child, known to the world as Baby Fae due to the parents’ request for privacy, became a miracle baby as she began to recover from what appeared to be the world s first successful cross- species transplant. The entire nation held its breath as this tiny girl struggled to survive her calamity. News reports sounded positive up until October 26, when the infant developed a complete heart block and died at approximately 9 o'clock P.M. from kidney failure. ', The Rev. Martin Luther King Sr., died at age 84 after suffering for many years w'ith a chronic heart condition. King was the father of slain civil rights leader.

Julie Kay: Fashion is basically the coordination of colors and styles to form one harmonious outfit. To me. fashion is a way of expressing your own personality and mood. Traci Strickland: I enjoy fashion, and I have fun with it. Every once in a while. I like to be a little different. When I get bored with my clothes I like to experiment and try new things. Patty Hutton: Fashion is pretty important. It shows that people take pride in how they look and since most will judge a person by their appearance, fashion has a very important role. Julia Ritter: When I'm going to school I like to look nice, and that means trying to stay in fashion. Some days I feel like being a slob, but most of the time I try to look my best. The one problem I have found has been that BHS couldn’t care less about fashion and anyone who does, is regarded as a freak. 9 Angie Peters: I think fashion is very important. It expresses a persons personality and I like to see changes in the styles. Donna Villines: I like new and exotic ways. I'll try anything once. It it makes in, it's in. Sintra hour rljamtrii... Celebrity Shoe Fanatics If you think you're in love with shoes, here are some celebrities' confessions about the number of shoes they own: Priscilla Barnes — about 150 pairs Morgan Brittany — 48 pairs of shoes, 15 pairs of boots Rae Dawn Chong — 300 pairs Bernadette Peters — about 50 pairs Lynda Carter — 800 pairs of boots Dolly Parton — I spend thousands of dollars on shoes each year.'' Karen Black — 60 pairs of shoes Dionne Warwick — about 400 pairs Three minutes, fifty-three seconds. That's the running time of Patty Smyth s striking video, 'The Warrior” — a song about the struggle for love between a woman and a man and the title track from her group Scandal’s new album. Patty and seventeen dancers spent two days filming the action in a New York studio. It took a team of 52 people, six weeks to put the video together. It reads almost like a fairy tale. Martha Quinn was fresh out of New York University with a degree in broadcast jour- nalism when she auditioned for a job at MTV, cable T.V.’s 24 hour rock music network. Two days later, she learned that she’d been picked from a field of 1500 applicants to become one of five veejays. That was over 2 years ago. Since then, Martha, 24. has been riding high with wrhat she calls the greatest job in the world. And who would argue with her? When she’s not taping her daily five hour show, (actually 45 min- utes worth of between song fillers), or going to rock con- certs. Martha studies up for in- terviews with rock s greatest stars. New Year s Eve At Videos are generally financed by both the artist and the record company, at an average cost of $30,000.00 or $40,000.00. Packed with fast cuts and mind-popping images, they’re basically offshoots of the T.V. commercial. Originally conceived as promotional tools for new releases, videos are very important and can sometimes shape the group's future live performances.

They broke the monotony of the school year with assemblies, dances and other functions. Truly, one might think of Stu-Co functioning as only a group trying to get us out of class all of the time, but this was quite untrue. They represented the student body at board meeting, and relayed problems and desires of BHS students to the administration. During the course of the 84-85 term, Stu-Co helped bring the Back to school Dance as well as other activities to the BHS campus. They saluted our teachers with an assembly showing how important they are to us as a student body. They helped us laugh during the class competitions seeing our co-students make fools (only in fun), of themselves. Student Council helped pass the shorts situation” on to the school board allowing the BHS student body to wear shorts during the warmer months of September and May. So. as we could tell on an almost daily basis, Stu-Co was a vi- tal part of the BHS students lifestyle. We salute the 1984-85 Student Council for all the pleasure they brought us, and for making the school year much more bearable.

Most people would think they were in the military service if they had heard someone yelling in this fashion. But. if you were a girl in Buffalo Gals, this language was something you heard daily. Mr. Bryan Elhard was the command- er and chief of the spit and polish marching drum and bugle corps. Just as the summer was beginning other school students were enjoying time off from school, while the Buffalo Gals began their summer practices. Twice a week the girls came to march amid sweat, pain, and heat. Sometimes the marching seemed endless with sore feet and a sweaty brow as a reminder of their toils, while other times flew by and ended in a short time. The arrival of the 1984-83 school year brought great expecta- tions for the members of Buffalo Gals. Along with the practices came parades, football routines, and basketball routines. The Gals not only took a few second place trophies, but they also took a great number of first place trophies at the parades they marched in. The year began with the SMSU Homecoming Parade and ended with the Dogwood Festival Parade in Camdenton. The hard work and dedication of the girls in Buffalo Gals proved to be an asset to the school system and made the people of Buffalo proud of their marching drum and bugle corps. The seniors departed from school, but. it is almost certain that memories of the 1984-85 Buffalo Gals would always live in the hearts of the girls in the corps.

French Club sponsor.” Miss Ray Dean Phillips Why did you take French Club? SANDY SCRIVENER - Because it sounded like fun and there are a lot of activities.” BLAKE CULLY — Because all my friends were in it. SUSIE IMES — I was in French class so I Figured I might as well. Why did you decide to take a French class? CLAY RICE — I thought it would be interesting and fun.” JAMES ROWLAND — To see what it was like.” BETH FULLERTON — ”1 wanted to learn a for- eign language and French has always appealed to me. What are some of the activities of French Club? ALECIA KAY — We have had a Halloween Party, movie parties, we all went to see a French play and then ate out together. We all went skating just recently and then had a pig-out at Mazzio's in Boli- var. SHAWN CLARK — Softball games and pizza parties. Other comments. STEPHANIE CHARLTON — I really enjoyed French. It's fun because you can say anything you really want to and no one can figure out what you are saying. BARBARA LAYLAND — I really enjoyed French and French Club. LISA McMILLIAN — I encourage others to take French because it is a fun language to learn and fairly easy too! JEFF MEEKS — It's a fun class! CHRIS KUREK — I think if Miss Phillips wasn’t teaching French I wouldn't enjoy it as much as I do now. CHAD GILLHAM — We didn't do as much this year as we did last year. We need winter activities.” STEPHANIE WEEKS — I think French is a lot of fun. Miss Phillips really helps to make it easier to learn. Front from left to right. Beth Fullerton.

These contests led to districts, held at SMSU. The Buffalo F.F.A. chapter is in Area eight. After competing at districts, if one scores high enough, he goes on to state which is held at Columbia, Missouri. There are many teams and members that participate in these contests, in hopes to make it to state. The teams that took part in these contests were, the Dairy Team which consisted of Paul Brown. Doug Richardson, Brian Ragland and Scott Turner. The Soils and Field Crops members were Robbie Franklin, Darrin Lewis. Gary Shockley. Steve Cantrell. Charles Fullerton, Brian Maddux, Angela Imes and Mona Walton. The Livestock team was Dean Galbraith. Steven Patten, Scott Rice and Jim Hargis. Curt Rankin, Jay Brace, Wayne Vest and Julie Turner were on the Meats team. slave AUCTION Wednesday, April 24 at 1:45 tHU NortDi, AprtM lewDey Buffalo High School Cafeteria 42 Members of the Buffalo Chapter of Future Farmers of America, 6 Girls, 1 Advisor, Will Be Sold For A 6 Hour Work Day These young men and women ore weR suited for oil form I home chores such os: CLEANING BARNS, PICKING ROCKS, FIXING FENCE, PLOWING, SPREADING FERTILIZER, LIGHT CARPENTER WORK, GARDEN WORK, PAINTING AND A FEW OF THE SENIORS ARE GOOD WITH LIVESTOCK Past Auctions Were Huge Successes With Many Satisfied Buyers!!!

Layout: Nancy Kennedy Teresa Witzman 123 Striving for the future is a large part of F.H.A. HERO. It's the forming of new relations between two or more totally different types of people, and encouraging those who can do. to help those who can t. F.H.A. is the caring of a group for more than just themselves, but is also for the community around them. The Buffalo Chapter is typical of any F.I I.A. chapter, in that it has its ups and downs along with the good and bad times. During the 84-85 year the F.H.A. members kept active with after school and in-school activities. Regional screening was held at BUS during the year. Members held heartthrob for the F.F.A. in February. Members attended regional meeting in Bolivar. They held a walk-a-thon for Leukemia. The final event of the year was the installation of the new officers at the annual banquet. Regional screenings were held at BUS. Approximately 16 schools were represented. rXA mo Daanna Randar 11� Cpnnia • •—y ci lit T« � nr tiin Kally Ca Ibralt 'lli l Klcfcnay T� «� y Tuckar UlKT Kubuna • tacy llwlOKt Karan Kupr niaal braawall and prrar-oce 124 JiUiUC HofMmJuU 0 fltMMCA At initiation Mrs. Kennedy and Deanna Henderson talked to new members about the upcoming year and the activities in it.

SPEECH MEETS Speech meets take a lot of time and preparation. Many of the student body at BHS don’t really understand the dedication involved, by being in speech. Many hours are put into speech, getting ready and going, but it is the stamina that keeps the speechies going. Sure, it is a lot of hard work but it is also a lot of fun. Mrs. Mary Lou Beckner helped out in numerous ways. In her first year of coaching at BHS, many felt this year was a season of sheer enjoyment. For some background of how speech tournaments work, each person, in whatever event, goes through two preliminary rounds. After this, the scores are rated and added up. The people with the best score advances on to what is called the semi-finals. After the semis round, the scores are totaled and again, the people with the best scores advance to another round called finals. Then the scores from that round are totaled and the person with the very best, gets first and so on. Every school has a number and ever)- person a letter, so favoritism by the judges is not involved. The speech squad was pretty successful this year, but the greatest achievement was by Evonne Glor. Evonne traveled to the highest tournament in the nation, during the summer of 1985, to attend the Nationals. At the Nationals, she was entered in Extemporaneous speaking. Evonne is the first person at BHS to travel to Nationals.

The music club of 1984-85 was really no different from music clubs of years past except that it was composed of more underclassmen, but this did not distract from the activities they participated in. As one senior of '85 stated, The upswing of underclassmen enrollment in music club is very encouraging. I believe it shows they want to keep the club alive on the campus of BHS.” The annual fund raiser was held in the spring. The members of music club sold M M's to buy a singing machine , which is a portable amplifier stereo. They will be able to play canned music” where no pianos are available. The entire group was happy with the success of their fund raiser when they listened and saw the results of their effort. The money left over was used as in years past to buy chevrons and letters. One major objective of music club is lettering. To receive the letter, music club member must do the following: be a member of music club, be in a large ensemble that is taken to District Festival, and be in a small ensemble or take a solo to Districts. Attendance, attitude, and performance are also taken into consideration. The small ensembles include girls sextets, mixed doubles, boys doubles, a trio, or a quartet composed of girls or boys. Last year the officers voted that Chamber Choir would be added to the small ensemble grouping. The 1984-85 school year was good for the members of the music club. They accomplished much and had fun at the same time. The 1984-85 Music Club. Row 1 — B. Holcomb. S. Smitherman. B. Portman, W. Bybee. D. Hurd. S. Price. D. Haymes. J. Hays, C. Knox; Row 2 — S.

They were a girls group who, under the direction of Suzanne Powers, performed as a community service for organizations such as: the Retired Teachers Association, the Kiwanis. A.K.G. and also several local churches. The members were Altos: Kyla Bates. Alecia Kay. and De- vonna Nimmo; 2nd Sopranos: Laura Cibert. Julie Kay, and Tina Smith; 1st Sopranos: Shan Cibert. Joelle Hillhouse. Gayla Sweaney. Stephanie Weeks, and Krissi Williams. Here is where it all started. The girls in the Dy namics worked hard and practiced every Wednesday night for an hour (not to mention the countless times they sacrificed their free time to perform for groups.) I think we all agree that we probably wouldn't have done it all for anyone else but Powers,” said Julie Kay.

BAND Band can mean different things to dif- ferent people. A lot of kids join band just because everyone else is. some drop after a couple of years, some find that they love band and stick with it. It gives some stu- dents confidence in themselves or even serves as an outlet to relaxation. Band at the first, can be scary for the freshman and that is enough to feel intimidated. It takes a lot of hard work and determination to be good at playing an instrument, (and a little talent does not hurt). Besides band just being a class to go to everyday, its musi- cians participate in activities outside the classroom. They have a concert every Christmas and spring. You'll also see the Buffalo High band at halftime at ball- games. They also went to a band contest and everyone received a two rating. Mr. Elhard. the band instructor, said that his band class was smaller than he liked, but the kids went the distance with the talent thar was there. Above, Terry Green. 130 David Blair. David Stuckey.

BJHS IDE BEST Stu. Co. members Tracy Strickland and Angie Peters with Shelly Taylor helping to fix the bulletin board. The junior high, for the first time in quite awhile, formed their own cheerlead- ing squad. They not only cheered for the seventh and eighth grade sports events for the boys, but also the seventh and eighth grade girls sports activities. The hard- working cheerleaders could always be found cheering their hearts out during their home games or while practicing their routines with their sponsor, Mrs. Huff- man. In the past couple of years the Junior High Student Council has become a strong force for the junior high students. The Junior High Student Council with the help of their sponsor, Mrs. Eyl, have been effective in creating school spirit by holding their own spirit weeks, dances and assemblies. Although, many activities planned, had to be canceled due to inclement weather. The forming of the Junior High Student Council has given the students a better chance to voice their opinions on what happens to them. It also allows the students a clearer insight of how the student government works. Jr. High Stu. Co. members, from left to right: Clifford Hathcock (Representative). Vicky Smith (Representative).

JR HIGH ACTIVITIES Junior high — what a life! One could say that junior high is a scary experience for most. By the end of the first week, most are in the swing of things. In years past, junior high has not had many exclusive activities of their own. One of the reasons for this was due to the fact that our students are located on the same campus, with high school and junior high somewhat combined. While 7th and 8th graders were invited to most high school activities, they were not always accepted too well by their high school counterparts. With an emerging of a junior high student council during the previous school term, and with its second year of existence in this year, junior highers had a greater feeling of independence with their own school functions. The junior high had a spirit week for football season. They dressed in unique attire throughout the week. They had a T-shirt day, having friends autograph their shirts. A Pep assembly, conducted by the cheerleaders, complete with skits and cheers, got everyone ready and full of spirit for the game. The junior high student council held some dances, as well. One dance was held in the fall and the other was late in the spring. Stu-Co also had a Christmas assembly consisting of carols and skits. Stu-Co was under the advisorship of Mrs. Eyl and Ms. Huffman. 148 Layout: Dawn Pierce THE STATE SCHOOL The state school in Louisburg has been there since 1972. In De- cember of 1982, ten years after it opened, it became part of the Dallas County School District. The students at the state school are taught basic skills and needs such as washing their hands, tying their shoe laces, and going to the bathroom by themselves. The levels these stu- dents are taught, range from pre-kindergarten to 5th or 6th grade. One of the main reasons that these skills are taught is to make placement easier. They can be put into a Vo-Tech course or a shelter program to get and keep some kind of ca- reer. The students of the state school are also participants in the Special Olympics. In their own way these kids are literally moving mountains. Layout: Bill Elliot 149 JR.

The School Board is made of six highly respected members of the community. In the 84-85 school year several adjustments had to be made due to new faces. Tom Dar- nell took over as superintendent. The School Board also had to ad- just the school calendar to accom- modate the snow days encoun- tered. Administration didn't have many changes to adjust to. except a few new policy changes. As the years have passed the Dallas County school system has had many changes take pl ce due to the changing times.

The organization is for children primarily between the ages of four and five years of age. Parents are also involved and help with the ses- sion's activities. Saturday School is a good place for young children to learn how to socialize with others. The children learn and play with an atmosphere of fun. Activities included in the program are game playing, storytelling, singing and painting. Mrs. Fran Chandler commented, As a child's first introduction to school, I want the experience to be a joyful one. The Saturday School program aims to enhance a child's self-esteem, his self-confidence and his readiness :hat he enters kindergarten feeling capable of ith his environment. him to find out that school is fun and learning is 170 Layout: Barbara Layland The Annual Staff student that was assigned this page, failed to meet their responsibility.

Being a Co-Editor of the annual has been an honor and has brought many unforgettable memories. The speed in which the year has passed is remarkable. During the year we have had some exceptional people to work with, which made the year wonderful and even more of a pleasure than usual. I have enjoyed my part in the production of the annual. The work is often hard and frustrat- ing with long hours spent on layouts in and out of school. Although it's hard work, it shows in the pride and devotion we have for our school. Thanks should go to the administration and faculty for all the help they provided us, as well as the community for their support and help. Very special thanks should go to two very spe- cial people. First. Mrs. Cole, our advisor for hav- ing enough faith and trust in me to entrust me with the responsibility of Editor, and to Alecia Kay as my co-Editor for her friendship and help. This year has been exceptionally special. As I leave this school I realize how my life has been enriched by those who teach and those who attended classes at Buffalo. I also realize how much of my life I have spent within the walls of Buffalo High. As a final farewell to my school, I leave a part of me in the pages of this book and in this message. To the teachers, my friends and everyone who made my school years so special — thank you!” Teresa Witzman Annual Editor, 1985 Being the SCOUT Editor was a rewarding experience, in that I gained knowledge of orga- nizing and preparing the material to be published in the school newspaper. The 84-85 school year brought about many changes to the SCOUT. A new man took over, therefore a new headline was created, different formats were used, and an annual staff member was selected to hold the position of Editor. Un- fortunately all these changes made my job quite confusing. Since Mr. Neitzcrt and 1 were new- to our positions, it was difficult to establish the guidelines and the rules of the SCOUT. I never learned the actual do s and don'ts of my posi- tion. I had to feel my way through each issue. But all the confusion and tension taught me patience and perseverance, therefore I'm thank- ful. Hopefully in the years to come, dynamic im- provements will be made in the SCOl’T. It’s a privilege to have a school newspaper and stu- dents should strive to make it the best publica- tion they can. 192 Barbara Andonie Layland, SCOUT Editor meteenf jghtyJTlve
