Volume 7 CONTENTS Curriculum Activities Athletics People Wi Tord afi We are proud of the administrative unit of Burns High School. Without Mr. Lancaster and Mr. Atkinson, our school would lack the fundamental leadership necessary for smooth operation. These two men rise to every situation with open minds and skilled hands to help keep Burns the distinguished school it is. Between the two of them, they watch the buses, keep an eye on the students, supervise hall traffic, and attend to all operations of administrative busi- ness. Facing each day witha bright smile, Mrs. Walker handles all financial transactions, schedule changes, and incoming bus- iness matters. Her co-worker, Mrs. Hastings, attends to absentee reports, personal records, and miscellaneous duties required for the office. With the help of the office assistants, many jobs are com- pleted that otherwise would be left unattended. They locate students, run errands, sign student release slips, give out absentee reports, type, and answer the phone. The unity of this group makes our office run smoothly. Mr. Mac Lancaster, Principal The Administrative Staff: A Unified Group Mr. David Atkinson, Assistant Principal Conferring on many matters that concern our welfare. 18 Jo Ellen delivers absentee slips. Laura Jones, Mary Beth Blanton, Nell Blye, Bonnie Barrett, Joyce Turner, Nancy Royster, Jo Ellen Shuford, and Nancy Hamrick Office Assistants The evening custodians are John Lawrence and his wife. Our Custodians make up an important part of our school by keeping it clean and neat. They work continuously during each day to furnish the student body with a clean school and facilities. Our custodians take pride in their work and they are glad to present our school to visitors. You can look around and see that we should give a hand of thanks to them for their hard work. We deeply appreciate the time and effort they put into their work here at Burns High School. Willie Glover and his wife are the custodians during the day. 20 EATER Sweeping takes a long time.

And at that, a world in which you are on your own and you either make it or hang it all up. You are your own re- sponsibility and you must solve all personal, academic problems which arise. Mrs. Mary Jo Pruett and Mrs. Mazel Wright are concerned, well-qualified Guidance counselors who are anxious to help you with these prob- lems. You are still on your own — but nobody says you have to do it alone. Answering many questions is a commanding task. Vat. As a concerned counselor, Mrs. Mazel Wright encourages students’ confi- dence and aids them with her knowledge. Mrs. Mary Jo Pruitt meets each day and each student with a constant smile to alleviate difficult situations. Mrs. Twitty works diligently to maintain library efficiency. For every class there is a time to study, a time to learn, a time to think, and a time just to relax and enjoy a good magazine. The library here at Burns High School provides an environment in which a student can accomplish all of these. Mrs. Twitty and her assistants spend a great deal of their time aiding students with the audio-visuals and other materials available. They keep the cards, checkouts, and listed references in order for the benefit of everyone. These methods make the library the great place it is. Using our extensive magazine collection, Mrs. Costner assists students in their search for materials.

Photography is perhaps the most unique mini-course here at Burns. Most students are sur- prised to find such an enjoyable course classified under the Science Department until they study the many techniques of making, developing, and print- ing pictures. These techniques are then put into practice as students gain experience in photography and processing. Many students take the course for personal enjoyment, but its primary purpose in the curriculum is to aid the newspaper and annual jour- nalism classes. Under the careful supervision of Mr. Steve Coon, students explore this fascinating world of photography. Betty Vinson and Mae Coleman prepare to develop pictures. Joyce Turner displays her talent in taking pictures. Science — Based On Learning By Doing In th e physical science class at the bottom of the page, Mary Hudson and Julie Bottoms use their methods and skills by doing an experiment on the separation of sol- ids. The tenth grade biology class in the middle of the page studies cell division through the processes of mitosis and meiosis. On the top of the opposite page, Cindy Mauney and Forrestine Sain put into practice the use of their methods and skills to do a mole method ex- periment in chemistry. At the left on the opposite page, Dale Willis, Tim Wright, and Edwin Costner use their techniques in physics, a course based on projects. Susan Warlick and Cindy Willis use their techniques learned in previous courses in biology and chemistry to study mitosis under the microscope in advanced biology at the bottom of the opposite page. 34 Mrs. Mary Lackey, physical science and biology ey ek de (by aa, t w to c eae Physics scsernntenabtton Mr. Steve Coon, chemistry and physics Mrs. Ada Scism, biology and advanced biology Variety In Social Science Mrs. Nancy Queen contemplates her World History class.

The figurine, books, and map, represent some of the means of studying Indian and African cultures. Mr. Miller discusses Louis XIV with stu- dents in Mrs. Queen’s World Histroy class. To the left, students study Problems in Democracy. Mrs. Louella Shivers expresses a point to students. Creation Unlimited Creativity . . . perception . . . evalation . . . expression . The Art Department at BHS is an outstanding example of these factors. Weaving, painting, paper mache, charcoal drawings, linoleum printing — projects such as these play an important part in the life of an art student. A new accomp- lishment of the Art Department this year is the formation of the Art Club. The Clubs’ first contribution is the making and selling of original greeting cards. The world of art is flourish- ing and the effects on BHS and our surrounding community are unlimited. Officers of the Art Club: Phyllis Lattimore, Diane Propst, Susan Elmore, and Virginia Cline. Mrs. Beverly Putnam, Art I and II The spirit and culture of Burns has been greatly improved by the music department. The Bulldog Band, di- rected by Mr. Bryant, performs at pep rallies, football games, and clas- sical music concerts. The chorus, led by Mrs. Enloe, performs for the pub- lic and student body. Susan South- ards, below, works hard to accom- pany the chorus. While walking down the halls of Burns, it may seem as if you are passing though a business section. Do not be alarmed. This is Burns’ program to prepare her students for jobs after graduation. In today’s world the young graduate becomes aware of the number of high paying jobs opened to a typist, an office worker, a stenographer, or a bookkeeper. To meet the needs of the students, Burns offers in its Business Department classes in Office Practice, Typing, Shorthand, and Bookkeep- ing. To become acquainted with job oppor- tunities and to develop self-confidence, the student can take part in the Co-Operative Program and the FBLA Club. aA Advance into the World of Business Frances Crouse, Basic Business, Shorthand I, Typing II Be ' e 4 my Denise Morrow takes a speed test. an = a 3 a 3 oO 9) e) o 2 e) vo S I ad o Q. ce} fe} O a) re a vo ie e) row by oy oO ag a ea) OD er) oO Rx a) ett Chai oe “a spossssestereesess SSessestests SSsires Floyd Wright, Typing I and Personal Typing RRA RRS tS Bir OE TORRES The goal of the Home Economics Department is to prepare today’s youth for family and community life.

The ICT program provides application of these skills and work experience under direct supervision. SVAN Steve Wells uses the techniques taught in class by Mr. Putnam. eheartts ecagiceest Treriteisent Building is one of the largest and most important of our permanent indus- tries. Under Mr. Brackett’s careful instruction, students learn skills in the use of many hand and power tools, how to interpret specifications from plans , and make accurate esti- mates of materials and labor costs. This world would certainly be a strange place if it weren’t for these craftsmen in the construction indus- try. Mr. Travis Brackett teaches Construction Industry. Mr. Cline Beam is the teacher of Bricklaying I and II. Bricklaying is a program designed to develop skills in the __ field of masonry. Throughout this course the students gain _ knowledge of the different materials needed for their fu- ture occupation. The bricklaying classes make great con- _ tributions to our school and community with their many projects throughout the year. The trowel is a very impor- tant tool in Masonry. = Misia ia Mi Mixing mortar is one of the basic fundamentals of Bricklaying. Small Engines is a two-hour course at Piedmont School. Students study the function of ‘small engines in prepara- tion for Auto Mechanics. In order to give students on- the-job experience, Auto Mechanics provides a repair and maintenance service.

Last years’ prom was just that, with fabulous deco- rations and music. Achievements of Yesterday Awards Day is an important day in the life of Burns High School. Deserving students are honored for their academic and leadership achievements. A Step Towards the Future At this time, if no other, everyone feels the pangs of growing up, of leaving friends — even teachers. And perhaps tears will even be shed. . . Butaserene sort of happiness alleviates the sadness when one remembers the good times, the friendships, the good days and the bad as well. Even the experiences we wish had never been, leave a sense of loss-because now they are over forever. Just be thankful for the memories and re- member — another page is turned in the book of life. This solemn occasion inspires the undergraduates to strive for the most important things in life so that they, too, may finish with honor.

Third row: Carolyn Turner, Traci Smith, Terri Smith, Susan Bolt, coach Jerry Bridges Susan Warlick and Teresa Bolt, the team’s two top scorers, contributed a lot to Burns’ winning season this year. Finishing her fourth year as a varsity player, Susan is the third all time girl scorer in Burns’ history and third all time rebounder. Teresa is the fifth all time scorer in BHS history, as well as all time ‘leading free throw shooter, with an accuracy of 58%. With the help of the other players, the team finished third in the conference with a 14-4 record. The team is composed of two seniors, three juniors, six sophomores, and two freshmen. All players helped in setting a school scoring record this year against Cherryville, scoring 71 points; the previous high was 69. Under the direction of Coach Jerry Bridges, the team has completed a success- ful season. In his opinion the team should be very tough next year and great the year after next. a Susan Warlick tips the ball to her teammate. Deborah Martin scrambles for the ball. Susan Warlick goes in for a lay-up. Susan Bolt hopes to score an extra point. Deborah keeps her eye on the goal. Our girls’ team should be commended for all the great work they have done this year. This talented group is composed of many fine players. Deborah Martin was the leading free throw shooter, thinking out her actions in- stead of merely reacting. Teresa Bolt was the best at hustling and on the man to man defense. Susan Warlick played the best offense. The best outside shooter was Phyllis Boggs whose accuracy for hitting the basket from ten feet or farther out was one-hundred percent. Another good player was Traci Smith who helped com- plete many successful plays with careful thought before each action. Coach Jerry Bridges is proud of the Lady Bulldogs, for with much hard work they won the honor of competing at Salisbury for the Southwestern Confer- ence title of number one. In turn, Burns is proud of Coach Jerry Bridges. Burns High School has had winning teams as long as he has coached. A good block is made to defend our goal. Get on up, Susan!! There are many ways to keep an opponent from scoring. Ronald Tyndle tries desperately to score. The Burns High Varsity Boys have ended one of their finest seasons by placing fourth in the Southwest Con- ference. The team was headed by outstanding athletes such as John Borders, Ronnie Tyndle, and Terry Hunt. Borders led the team in scoring with three hundred thirty-seven points. Ronnie Tyndle and Terry Hunt fol- lowed in scoring being second and third respectively. Borders also set the single season rebounding record of two hundred fifty. The previous high was two hundred forty-three. Ricky Sims set the single season assists re- cord with fifty. Coach Bill Powell put forth much time and effort to lead our boys in these victories. When asked his opinion on the season, he responded, ‘‘Only playing one senior, we’re real pleased with our record. It’s the best record we’ve had in the past four years. We also had a lot of outstanding help on the bench. We feel like since we are graduating only two people and with the fine J.V. season we had this year, we should be moving on up.”’ Burns Places Fourth in Conference t Ne | VW peg | John Borders shoots for two points.

John scrambles for the ball Many trying hours of practice have been put forth by the BHS varsity boys to insure a winning season. Sacrificing afternoons for practice, which included exercises, free- throws, lay-ups and the execution of various plays, all this in preparation for the big games ahead. Each player anxiously awaits the season’s arrival and the tension and excitement of competitive sports. These spirited con- tests attracted many athletic supporters who cheered our team to numerous victories. The warm-up period often gave the fans a preview of the action in store. This proved to be true as our team was usually the first to score. Concentrating on a well-developed defense also contributed to an effective offense. This was the major factor in our team finishing 12-6 in conference play. Their overall record was 13-7, placing them fourth in Southwest Conference action. Advancing to the semifi- nal round of the playoffs by defeating Cherryville and R.S. Central, they were stopped by the eventual win- ners, the Crest Chargers. The 1974-75 Bulldogs should be one of the favorites in the Conference race. With a loss of only two seniors from this year’s team and the addition of some J.V. players, next year’s team’s outlook is the brightest ever. On behalf of the BLAZES staff, we congratulate this 1973-74 team for its’ fine performance, character, and sportsmanship. Our zone defense forced many outside jumpers. a) ‘ 5300 ™ Number 20 fights for the rebound. Let’s go, Bulldogs!!! mt Satan tesomeee Terry Hunt keeps the opponent from scoring. Robert Williams goes up for two. To beat a team while breaking a scoring record is a vic- tory any team would like to remember but then to have the same team hand you your first and only defeat is a bitter memory Coach Don Bridges and his J.V. boys would like to forget. The scoring record was ‘broken January fourth, when Burns beat South Point 100-94; but in the final game of the season, South Point ended Burns’ nineteen game winning streak. Capturing the conference crown with a 19-1 record Coach Bridges and company are to be congratulated for the best record of any boys team, either varsity or junior varsity. Starting four freshmen, and one sophmore, these boys competed against all the conference schools except Bessemer City. The team averaged 72.3 points per game while holding their opponents to 57 points a game. In his first year as the J.V. coach, Don Bridges started preparing these boys for the season by having them run track. Among the outstanding players was Craymond Pryor, the top scorer with 328 points. Donald Dunbar, top rebounder, leads in three other categories: field goal percentage, percentage from the foul line, and second leading scorer. Paul Lawerence ran the club and was excellent at break- ing presses. Robert Williams, sixth man on the team, helped a lot coming off the bench and took the most offensive fouls. Greg Beam could turn out to become a good athlete. First row: Johnny Lee Coleman, Donald Smith, Paul Lawrence, Raymond Pryor, Charles Parks. Second row: Michael Hopper, John Vinson, Donald Dunbar, Robert Williams, Dickie Hopper. Third row: Craymond Pryor, Warren Vinson, Greg Beam, Walter Wilson, Michael Hunt, Lenwood Ross, manager. J.V. Boys Hit All Time Record grr) Most people think that a junior varsity team is made up of second-rate players who aren’t good enough to play big-time basketball. If this is true, then our Lady Bullpups are an exception to the rule! With endless enthusiasm and determina- tion, these girls turned what seemed to be a dismal losing season into a success- ful campaign for victory. The ’73-’74 team was composed of mostly fresh- men. Inexperience hurt the Bullpups in the beginning as they dropped three of their first five games. Then the Bullpups caught fire, winning seven of eight re- maining games. Marion Fredericks led in scoring, averaging 13 points per game. Zenobia Bridges was close behind with an 8 point average. Leaders in re- bounding include Kay Vinson and Phyl- lis Byrd, with close to seven rebounds per contest. The greatest overall victory First row: Phyllis Byrd, Marian Frederick, Zenobia Bridges. Second row: Marette Degree, Cathy Shade, Laverne Ross, Darlene Sims. Third row: Kathy Littlejohn, Jane Elmore, Kay Vinson, Vivian Clark, Eliza Hopper, manager. came over Kings Mountain by a 30 point margin. Under the leadership of Miss Linda Childers, the team finished with a fine 8-4 record. The experience that these girls have gained will help them develop into the outstanding varsity per- formers in the future. Our great basket- ball tradition has been upheld by the Lady Bullpups! The only effort lacking in the lady Bull- pups campaign for victory was the at- tendance of the spectators. It seemed that these girls had something to prove and they did. Now it is up to the student body and the community to support our junior varsity program so that it will improve. So come on, let’s support this effort to make Burns NO. 1. After all, it’s your future! Just wait til next year! Lady Bullpups Campaign for Victory ; : | i Tennis: Let Ball. . .

Baseball is one of the major spring sports of Burns High School. Our team of 1973 ended their season with a nine and nine record. Anticipation, anxiety, joy, and disappointment all play their part in every game. Under proper leadership the individual learns the principles of sportsmanship and character. He becomes a gracious winner and a good loser. Mr. Floyd Wright, Baseball coach.

Spectators view the game through the fence. Track is one of the most rapidly growing sports here at Burns, and with the completion of our new asphalt track, many of the track meets were held here. Our boys made a fine showing and placed well in many events. The members of the Track team have worked very hard for their school. Doug Bratton is coming in for a landing.

Intramural Competition An intramural volleyball tournament has been held for the past three years in the BHS gym. The tourna- ment first started in 1972 to give students a chance in wholesome competition. Due to student involvement and interest, almost all homerooms participated. By promoting team compet- ition, sportsmanship and school spirit, intramural vol- leyball has been a tremend- ous success. The victors of each year’s nerve-wrecking tournament was the senior class. mre or | wae Naan Volley for the serve. A smashing return. Varsity Cheerleaders 3 oacuiae ¢ a Be. ach $ Fal! stat ik ny a 8 ee ee ee Fathi d The varsity squad performs many stunts to promote spirit. The life of a cheerleader can be both tough and rewarding. Long hours of practice are put into the stunts that the cheer- leaders of BHS use to promote spirit. Other activities in- clude bake sales and a car wash which provide funds for a party honoring senior members. When Mrs. Hughes, former sponsor, left this year, she was presented with a dozen red roses and a plaque bearing the inscription “‘Let there be peace.’ Mrs. Harris, the new sponsor, is working hard to make this year better than ever.

They rep- resent Burns in parades, decorate for athletic events and serve as rep- resentatives of our school. They in- spire school spirit during pep rallies and rainy nights. They cheer with sore throats, undampened spirits, smiles, uncertainty, tears, and re- lief. Rigorous daily practices per- fected the girls’ cheerleading abilities and help produce an abun- dance of school spirit. This year the junior varsity squad is headed by captain Shelia Wray and co-captain Virginia Cline.

Memories for Tomorrow i 1 | | | | i i } | 1) | | Energy Crunch Real or Phony’? This year the nation seems to be facing a grim future. Due to a war and the wasting of natural resourses, the American people now face an energy shortage. The young people of today are now learning what their par- ents faced during the Depression. The nation’s industry, transportation, and communication are almost at a standstill. Lower speed limits and thermostats are two possible means of saving fuel. To aid in the saving of fuel and electricity the nation has switched back to daylight saving time. This has yet to be proven effective. Students now board buses and come to school while the moon is still out. Would it be best to start school an hour later, a periodic closing of schools, or are things working out for the best under present conditions? Where does industrial nation turn when its fuel supply is about to collapse? Will the ememgency programs prove to be helpful or will the nation find other ways to fill the need for fuel? Will this cause other resources to become limited?
