You are about to encounter an electrifying experience. The time 8:15 A.M., the place Callaway High School a mass of bricks, glass, and mortar until we, the Callaway Chargers plug in the socket and bring it to life. First, we will trace the footsteps of the average stu- dent ' s colorful life. We will feel the current flowing as we yell at a pep rally or game and watch the sparks fly as the football players socket to the other team. Next, we will be conducted to the academic aspects of our school as we see the battery-operated teachers, having been re- charged over the summer try to teach amidst all the static in the classroom. The organiza- tions which will be our next encounter supply the school with the juices needed to keep the motor running smoothly. Now we will snatch a shocking glimpse of the many sports played in the institution, each with just the right amount of electricity to put power into whatever is played. For our last encounter, we will take a look at ourselves, the Callaway Chargers, those of us who have the responsibility of generating the charge back into the school every year. WARNING: THIS IS A HIGH VOLT- AGE AREA AND WE ARE NOT RE- SPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT OCCURS BEYOND THIS POINT! PLEASE WATCH YOUR STEP AND LOOK OUT FOR THE CALLAWAY CHARGE!

ydleinit The Callaway Charge — The current that flowed through the 1978-1979 Char- gers and generat- ed power into the students ' every day lives. This pow- er made crowded pep rallies bearable and gave icy football games the Friday night fever. The Chargers, win or lose, resembled a power house at the football games. Spirits, not even dampered by a lost game, considered the defeat a blown fuse and tackled the task of switch- ing the power back on. A victorious game generated even more voltage and the Charger fans electrocuted the night with excitement. The juices really began to flow as the Chargers plugged in the disco sounds at Prom and Homecoming. Students shocked excitement into those normal day-to-day activities with this electrifying current. This amazing charge gave students the ability to overcome the middle-of- the-year blahs that every normal student catches at least once a year. This current, not only confined to the school, flowed to enlighten the Jackson community. Those students who had part time jobs put a charge in the lives of their employers, fellow employees, and customers. What constituted that little extra something that made this Callaway school year a success? Those Char- gers who possessed THE GREAT CALLAWAY CHARGE! WHO ' S THE MASKED MOUTH? Seniors show their super Charger Spirit. 4 Student Life Division
