Ca- dets, however, have flexible life goals, trains only destinations to reach. It isn’t easy keeping either one on track. Some of us got sidetracked last year. Discipline was down and drug infractions and disregard for authority cost us heav- ily in lost leadership and in student numbers. The battalion’s now on track, but to keep it there takes direction. An expanded commandant staff is on board and has us rolling toward definite destinations, individually and as a corps. We’re on track again, pulling together and looking out for one another. Morale’s up and discipline’s heightened. The system’s go. We’re back on track. 3 Student life is structured. Seven days a week bu- gles signal reveille and taps and regulate activity between. But busy as the schedule is, cadets find time for recreation and leisure too, on campus and in the surrounding Camden community. During a time for fun, Brad Mullins demonstrates his skateboard- ing prowess to recumbent 1989 Class Clown James Dyal, while Randy Watts, Jon Felice, and Will Rice share the moment vicariously. Student Life 5 We’re back and on track. Summer 1988 wound down, as summers will, and our CM A family reassembled from far corners of the globe to trigger the start of a new school year. Newsworthy world affairs reordered themselves. While interest in Latin Ameri- can and Middle Eastern military and political confrontation cooled, concern heated up over the environment. Global warming, the greenhouse effect, took on immediate importance as the whole planet felt the heat last summer. Worsening the environmental crisis is the depletion of the ozone layer. Scientists now fear that the very foundation of the food chain, disruption of plant growth and the process of photosynthesis, may already be upset Carbon-dioxide loads, chlorofluorocarbon residues and forest destruction have pushed the world’s life-support system to the very brink of breakdown. Toxics, smog, and acid rain problems compound- ed themselves and remain largely unresolved. The specter of AIDS grimly evidenced itself in hospital waste, syringes and tainted blood-testing jetsam, which appeared in coastal wa- ters and washed up on sea beaches. Gloom, however, was not universal. While our contempor- aries, according to media reports, may be preoccupied chief- ly with the triple C’s of crack and crime and casual sex, the three R’s occupy us here. New faculty and staff complement- ed old stalwarts, the Baldridge SAT Preparation Course be- came an optional addition to the curriculum, and alumni giving permitted a sevenfold increase in scholarship awards. An expanded Military Department affords closer cadet di- rection throughout the battalion with a tactical officer as- signed to each company. Physical change is most notable in the disappearance of the firing range, which stood on county property, and the erection of a new air terminal, with direct access from US Route 1, only a few feet from the former range site. Work crews completely renovated faculty apartments opposite Band Company and thinned and limbed stands of longleaf pine which dot the campus. Summer switched to autumn. Presidential election cam- paign and Discovery and Atlantis countdowns held our atten- tion, and XXIV Olympiad competition in Seoul brought the world together. In a media extravaganza, the US and USSR combined to save two of three California gray whales strand- ed in pack ice off Port Barrow, Alaska. That cooperative effort was prelude to the immense new challenge of manag- ing what may be the last stages of the cold war and of inventing a new economic and political world role for the United States. For all these happenings, singer Bobby McFerrin crooned background music, his number one single “Don’t Worry, Be happy.” At CMA we were back and on track.

Camden Military Academy is bounded by US Route 1, the Maine to Florida highway, now only an alternate for traffic on 1-95—Main Street USA—and the Kershaw County Airport. CM A facilities include World War II structures built for Army Air Corps flying school use, renovation of which reflects a transformation from tempo- rary wartime construction to fully renovated, substantial buildings. This year the county built a new air terminal for Woodward Field, the most significant addition to the facility since wealthy sportsman Ernest Woodward donated land for an airport in the 1920s to discourage pilots from landing their planes on his polo field, now part of Springdale Racecourse. The City of Camden attracts tourists in num- bers and is a mecca for horsemen, but principal interest in the town for the average cadet is the predictable fare at Burger King and McDonald’s. Pictured here are scenes shot in the community, beyond self-contained CM A. Top left, then clock- wise: Eric Gadlage and Will Rice stride toward fast food heaven, DeKalb Street, Camden. Col.

It’s a road not taken for Eric Gadlage, Ted Dailey, Evan Samli, and Jim Den- ton, just beyond the parade field. 8 Polo and Planes (cont’d)_________________________________ :he Camden tourist route is the Quaker Cemetery zrz - e .:e of Ellen of Glasgow, Revolutionary War figure who :: ;-ed her soldier lover to the wilderness, but died before 'round him.

HORSES BIDDEN ftptl WALK 7 short circuit a s coorau , Shaping up is part of the program. Developing the body as well as the mind is a goal for every cadet. Twice-weekly PT sessions are on the regular activities schedule. After a warm-up period and calisthenics, running and in- tramural sports exchanges follow, both for having fun and for countering academic pressure or frus- tration. All cadets report for PT formation, but those participating in a current intermural sport proceed from there to the gym or practice fields for their training. Individual physical training is serious business to some who stay in shape by running year-round. Specific goals, such as participating in the annual spring Special Forces Survival Run, five grueling miles across the adjacent airport and over The Camden Hunt’s foxhunting country, motivate se- rious competitors. Spring and fall, swimming is popular and the weight room is always busy for those who seek to go beyond just staying in shape, pumping iron to build more powerful and more impressive bodies. Shaping up physically’s an important part of the CMA program.

We entrust our lives to lifeguards Mike Aaron and Jon Felice, pool persons. 12 13 Take a break at Carlisle House or the Hotspot Free time is precious for cadets and leave usually means either sleeping or relaxing with food. Harvey Peeler, Chris Huntington, and Charlie Beam (photo right, then clockwise) relax at the Hot Spot, a just-barely-off-campus quickstop on Route 1. The trio heads in for their break, stopping at the checkout for quar- ters. At Carlisle House, CMA’s on-cam- pus canteen and recreation center, Chris Bearden, Scott Arnold, and Chad Man- gum battle it out at Foosball. In the back at the Hot Spot, Chris guides Harvey in the intricacies of video gamesmanship while Charlie goes it alone. Back out under the great Hot Spot canopy, Harvey, Chris, and Charlie check their change. At Carlisle House, Greg Foss makes a junkfood purchase from Mrs. West while Justin Lucas eyes his choice. In the TV lounge, John O’Neil indulges himself with icecream while Justin Lucas, Charlie Beam, Josh Hierholzer, and Tony O’Brien relax be- fore the bugle blows, sounding fall-in for retreat and supper formation. 14 Suddin 15 Moving forward back on track. Return to CMA was a dose of culture shock: procedurs change, increased barracks supervision, modified rules and re ulations, stricter haircut standards, a stringent PT program, sharper guardroom detail, weekly mandatory bed stripping — all, of course, to get us back on track. Take a look around. On the road from Carlisle House and along the parade field, at the guardroom and around the phones, cadets wear military or PT uniforms exclusively. Hair is shorter, not blocked, and cadets on duty in the guardroom wear dress fatigues, with white webbing and dress hat. Assigned to each company is a tactical officer who affords continuous intermin- gling of staff and cadets, much like the advisory system at West Point. The “Tac Officer” inspects and disciplines his company, working on a one-on-one basis to solve problems more effective- ly. Rules, which were sometimes bent or stretched, are enforced. The schedule of merits and demerits is set, unlike previous years’ five for one ratio, so that one merit cancels one demerit. In addition, the handbook limits civilian clothing and estab- lishes weekly bed strips — which raised eyebrows initially — requiring every cadet to strip his bed and send out his sheets to the laundry. Saturday Morning Inspections (SMI) are both in- side and outside. The slack has been pulled out of the system. Change is mov- ing us forward, back on track. PHOTOS.

Chet Lightcap, Tay- lor Rion, Ian Osborne, and Marc Ely perform weapons maintenance tasks. Mrs. Helen Feltham, Recrea- tion Center Director, explains tournament mechanics — chess to foosball — to Kevin McDaniel and Gary Spencer. Carlisle House is a relaxing place, and these folks guarantee that atmosphere. The Laundry Staff, here trying to solve the case of the unmarked bundle, includes Mike Hargett, Greg Baxter, Jon Felice, Rob Whitmire, Steve Robinson, Julio De La Guardia. City Laundry rep resentative Mrs. Rose Trimnal, awaits the break in the case. Military clerks review individ- ual cadet records, here Douglas Eader, Andres Valdano, Bret Bur- nikel, Ted Ulrichsen. Under the clock, Chris Reinman, Kevin McDaniel, and Mike Worsham in- sure the accuracy of duty rosters, lists which are vital to smooth op- eration within the corps. The Supply Staff issues brand newboy Jamie Flanagan full uni- form — cap to shoes — and more. Ernie Small and Julio De La Guar- dia, record; Blair Sims, checks items of issue; and Todd Ramella, Supply NCO, and LTC Stephen Mowe, Supply Officer, insure proper dresscoat fit.

Suspended moments in time include Ca- det Morgan, dining hall KP (far left), erupting from the kitchen, tray in hand: “Hello! My name is David. I’ll be your waiter today.” (Continuing counterclockwise) The sergeant-of-the-guard maintains cadet accountability in the dorms during study- hall evenings. Here, Taylor Rion, Eric Putman, and Nick Medina check out for the library with clipboard-wielding Derek Whisenhunt, “C” Company SG. The signal’s loud and clear. Louis Baker sounds formation “fall-in.” Like an apparition from a Greek past, Spartan Mike Hargett reaches out to Lonnie Broome as modern day spirits Chet Lightcap, Jon Felice, Mike Yount, and Eric Story (back) ready for gridiron action. On this day, their spectator en- thusiasm contributed to victory over Waccamaw Academy, 29-0. At the fall Visitors Day hop, Eric Gad- lage and Crystal Lane sit one out. The gym is the scene for the dancing. Cadet Mark Pressley, tablehead, pro- motes a spirit of sharing between diners Ken Davidson, James Kaiser, Jon Star- ratt, and (foreground) Kevin Pohlman.

Damon Ed- mondson, Eric Gadlage, and Ted Dailey are having fun but miss the message at the entry to Carlisle House. 21 Alpha Company Senior Chris Huntington, asked about “A” Company, puts it succinctly: “It is simply the best company.” Newboy se- nior Marc Ely says, “ ‘A Company is Honor Company, and even if I didn’t help make it that, I still am proud to be in it. And why shouldn’t I be proud? It’s my home this year.” “We are perfectly located, close to all major activities,” ad- vises Ivan GreenwelL Patrick Davidson states that “A” is the best company by far, echoed by Mike Hargett’s boast that “A” is sharpest and, “We teach the new- boys in a way that they get it through their heads that we are the baddest, sharpest, and cleanest company.” Pres- cott Jordan feels, “Everyone cares about what goes on. We can always have a good time.” According to Ted Hughes, “Wak- ing up in the morning and walking on carpeting instead of tile floors is a good indication of how great this company is. I believe that the friendships that bond A Company are stronger than in any other company.” Baron Lewis evaluates it: “About any other company, I just say, A nice place to stay, but I wouldn’t want to live there.’ ” Of Alpha Company, Neil Jack- son says, “It’s a real brotherhood.” Staff: Guidon Hayes, front.

Ian Osborne advises, “Our taste in music ranges from Led Zeppelin to L. L. Cool J and everything in between.” Enjoying their catholic taste in music is LTC Harry Woodman- see, whom Lewis Sharp describes as: “The person who provides the icing on the cake, our Tac Officer. He’s special and impor- tant to our company because he doesn’t rule with an iron fist, he leads with a smile and a kind word. We have leadership, cohe- siveness, and good relations among us.” Scott Haskell indicates: My company is the best company on campus. Bravo Company has produced more officers than any other company on campus. This very year all of the officers on staff came from ‘B’ Com- pany. I have been in Bravo for five years and would rather turn in my rank than move. We are all one big family, everyone looking out for one another. That is what makes Bravo so great.” Todd Kaminer says, “ ‘B’ Company is the best in the whole battalion. We stick together as a team,” which Ken Newcombe describes as “a brotherhood of Bravo.” To Ted Dailey, “B” is one big happy family and, “We act like fathers and brothers to each other.” Vince Minelli sums it up: “Even though everyone says his company is better, it’s only talk. is best.” Staff: 2d Platoon Ldr Strickland, 1 Sgt Herron, Tac Officer LTC Woodmansee, Company CO McGraw, Exec Fall-in for Sunday Dress Parade, Rob Strickland in Officer Pressley, 1st Platoon Ldr Nelson, Guidon Laird (kneeling). foreground.

We all treat each other as a family.” Spence Benham is realistic about that family life in “C”: “With different people come different living habits. Some snore at night. Some toss and turn during the night, still other have insom- nia.” Jon Felice has a different perspective: “I’ve lived in all four compa- nies and ‘C is definitely different from the rest. With the highest altitude of all, ‘C’ is the coldest in winter and hottest in summer. Being the tallest barracks, we have the best view for watching parades and the girls who come into the ‘circle’ to meet guys.” The physical attributes may be the best, emphasizes Ashley Saulnier: “ ‘C’ Co pany is the only one entered via stairwells. We are located in a con' nient position on campus, close to the snack bar and not too far frc anything else on campus. A real plus is the elevated view of Woodwa Field, which is spectacular!” Justin Campbell, Company Commander, rationalizes: “Though may not have carpeted floors and panelled walls as some of the oth companies do, we take it as it is and call it home.” Brad Mullins disti the gist of all this: “Members of companies in the battalion state tb they are the best. Charlie Company is the best. We may not perfect, but we are not far from it.” Staff: lSgt Whitmire, 2d Platoon Leader M.S. Aaron, Tac Officer LTC Mowe, Below: First Platoon; Edmondson (in front).

We live together, eat together, and go to school together. It's some- thing special to me, something you see nowhere else. It’s an unusual place because we all share something in com- mon, the ability to play a musical instrument.” “ +Q-land’ is located on the southeast end of the campus, just seconds away from the phones and the bus to town, but only a whisper from where the commandant sits in his office,” advises Mike McCoy. “It houses talented cadets and holds good fellowship.” Damon Saunders says, “I think of my room as my castle. Band is luxurious because it has beautiful carpet and spacious bathrooms with a spotlight on each mirror which makes everyone feel like a star.” On the Staff side, Battalion Commander Will Rice ob- serves: “Without the battalion staff the corps would be in chaos. Staff is always willing to have their fun and games, but when it is time to do their assigned tasks, they perform them seriously and with eagerness.” David Stepp, Adju- tant clarifies: “We live in the band barracks and try to uphold the traditions of the band. We stay laid back, but when we work, we try our hardest and hope to serve all well. Staff is composed of the finest.” Andres Valdano describes staff members as, “The few, the proud.” •’t ■ ; i'r .

Sports count here, and they’re a virtual athletic smorgasbord—baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, soccer, tennis, track—and not just for serious jocks. Although more than half the corps lettered in intermural sports this year, everyone gets into the fitness act. Weekly PTand intramural sports programs mesh with voluntary jogging, running, and weightlifting, which afford everyone physical train- ing at whatever level or by whichever route he chooses. Spectator activities add another dimension for participation, guaranteeing something sporting for everyone. Sports 31 A bumpy start The team got better on the year. Coach Eric Boland knew the road would be bumpy in the early going and that his football team would get better as the year went on. “We played the top schools on our schedule all at the start of the season,” Bo- land said. “Those schools finished first, sec- ond and third in the league.” After a disappointing 1-8 season last year, the Spartans returned to the gridiron with a new attitude. Despite having to re- place 14 starters and having only two weeks to practice, CMA rang in the new season with a 29 point victory over Waccamaw A- cademy. Runningback Evan Samli rushed for 106 yards and two TDs. Neil Jackson returned a fumble 29 yards and Ron Landers caught a 13 yard pass to complete the scoring. Next for the Spartans were the Ham- mond Skyhawks who were on their way to a state championship. Led by all-state quar- terback Chad Wood, Hammond used an ex- plosive passing attack to obtain a 41 point lead. Quarterback Happy Taylor connected with Landers for a 76 yard touchdown to avoid the shutout. A week later, a strong Heathwood Hall blasted CMA 41 to 0. In Thomas Sumter’s homecoming game the Spartans jumped out to a 6-0 lead on a flea-flicker from Lonnie Broome to Landers that covered 30 yards. Another Spartan TD was called back by a penalty. But TSA scored to 22 unanswered points to secure the victory. At Wilson Hall’s homecoming, the Bar- ons broke open a close game with 34 second half points. The lone bright spot was an 86 yard kickoff return by Landers that ac- counted for CMA’s points. The Spartans returned home to face archrival Asheville School. Led by Greg Baxter’s receiving and Broome’s running, CMA was ahead 8 to 6 at the half. But the Blues came back to score late and inter- cepted Taylor’s pass with 30 seconds left. A 40 yard reception by Baxter with less than a minute left was called back on a penalty. Final score: Asheville 14, CMA 8. Christ School, in a continuation of that weekend’s journey to the mountains, exploded for 14 third quarter points to beat CMA 32-6. Taylor scored for the Spartans. After six straight losses, CMA went to Bamberg to face Andrew Jackson Acade- my. The Confederates recovered a fumble and scored early in the first quarter, but it was the only good thing they would do. A fearsome “Mad Dog” defense sacked the quarterback five times and completed four interceptions. Davidson made three sacks and Jackson intercepted two passes, both of which set up touchdowns. Wide receiver Ron Landers enjoyed his finest game of the season. He returned a fumble 40 yards, caught a 70 yard pass, and returned a kick- off 80 yards, scoring three TDs. Final score: CMA 38, Andrew Jackson 20. With a forfeit win over Hilton Head Prep, the Spartans journeyed to Asheville for a rematch with the Blues. Asheville scored on their first possession, but from then on it was a defensive battle. CMA’s defense, led by Ted Dailey, Billy Dial, and Mike Aaron, held Asheville School numer- ous times. With five minutes left in the game, Happy Taylor connected with Landers for a 60 yard Score. Samli rushed for the two-point conversion to give CMA an 8-6 lead. This time it was CMA who intercepted a pass in the last minute. Aar- on, with the interception, sealed the Blues’ fate. The Spartans finished 3 and 5, the best CMA record in five years. Bright spots for the team were: Landers finished third in the state in receptions and set a school record; Taylor threw for over 500 yards on the season; Dailey had 13 pri- mary tackles vs. Andrew Jackson; Broome rushed for over 60 yards in his first game as quarterback. Coach Boland concluded, “We really came around at the end of the year and played well.” FOOTBALL SCOREBOARD 29-0 Waccamaw Academy 6-41 Hammond Academy 0-41 Heathwood Hall 8-22 Thomas Sumter 8-41 Wilson Hall 8-32 Christ School 38-20 Andrew Jackson 8-6 Andrew Jackson Varsity.

Track at CMA has enjoyed a history of competition, participation, and suc- cess. The Cross Country Team is no ex- ception to this fine tradition. While the CCT team got a late start, jumping into the season with only four competitive meets remaining, nine members ran the brass off their hats and finished third in their first meet. This effort continued during the re- maining portion of the season, and ended on an upward note by improving overall position in the PAIS by 16 points. This strong finish for the 1988-1989 team has established a lofty goal for the 1989- 1990 team to accomplish. While reach- ing this goal will not by any means be easy to do, the job is made somewhat easier by only losing one team member to graduation. The remaining eight members will return next year and give the team some much needed depth and experience. CMA’s best ever_________________________________________ 100 point games with 3-point bombs A record book season, it was, en route to CM As first conference championship in the Carolina Athletic Association. A valiant group of seven players, calling themselves the “Hoo- siers,” hustled and “fast-breaked” their way to a 20-5 season. Conference mark was 10-2, and the Spartans were undefeated at home due in part to the great support of the cadet corps and the whole CMA family throughout the year. All-Carolina first team selections Lewis Sharp and Ron Landers led the Spartan hoopsters all the way. Both seniors averaged over 20 points a game, and Sharp was state leader in rebounding, Landers, among the state leaders in assists. The combo proved to be the great 1-2 punch that most teams found unstoppable. Sharp’s high game of the year was a 35 point explosion in the Spartans’ thrashing of Sloan’s School. Landers’ was a 32 point effort against St. Jude’s. Camden skies exploded with 3-point bombs during the season, thanks to junior Happy Taylor, among the state leaders in 3-point shots, who, several times, killed opposing rallies with his deadly shooting. Taylor played his best ever in a 25 point game against Thomas Sumter. David “Sky” Price was a clutch performer, a defensive stopper while roaming the baseline. Adjusting during the season, his scoring increased so, that he looks now to rise to Spartan star status next year. Senior Mike Aaron provided great defense and timeless hustle when CMA needed it most. His 20 point game against Ben Lippen late in the season helped the team clinch the conference. Center position was platooned by Marty Christensen and Neil “Action” Jackson. Top performers, each played key roles in many victories. Coach Eric Boland’s history making troops brought cheering fans to their feet when they scored 100 points in a game for the first time in CMA annals, then went on to record four such triumphs. The Spartans put Camden athletics squarely back on the winning track.

Young warriors hoopster future source Junior Varsity players posted a respectable 8-5 record. Though often oversized and outmanned, they rode the timely coaching of their third year gridiron tutor, Captain McElvain, to upset many favorites. High point for the hoopsters came at Sloan’s School where Spartans scored a season high 60 points in routing Sloan’s by 30. Other achievements included a victory over Hilton Head, two wins over St. Jude’s, and a come-from-behind overtime thriller against Ben Lippen. Chris Witherspoon led the junior Spartans, his drives and pull-ups accounting for many Spartan points. Billy Dial and David Warner, adept at following up shots and playing intense defense, manned the inside. Hustler of the team was Jeff Gordon who at different times played every position, each well. Other contributors included Jemel “Scruff’ Powell, Mike Pettit, and Blake “Blaze” Thornton. JV players are source for Varsity futures, and this group of young warriors gave CMA many moments to be excited about.

In twelve dual meets this season, CMA struggled to a 1-11 record. But eight of the twelve meets were against public school power- houses, such as Lugoff-Elgin and Buford Academy. Highlights were: a narrow loss to Cheraw before 800 spectators; Ted Dailey’s two upset wins against Lugoff- Elgin’s Charlie Pearson, one of the top three wrestlers in his weight class in the state; and a big win against Christ School in White Field House. Ted Daily domi- nated with a 14-0 record and Mike Gerber was 11-2-1. But all of the matches against powerful teams paid off when CMA traveled to Charlotte for the Carolinas Wrestling Invitational Tournament, the unofficial state championship for independent schools. Spartan grap- plers stunned several larger schools as they finished tournament championships in their weight classes, and Mike Gerber and Lonnie Broome finished second in the tournament. Kyle Curtis, John Mitchell, and Evan Samli garnered third places, and Dailey was named CWIT outstanding wrestler overall. Coach Tom Hesson brought back the runner-up trophy, first of such earned in four seasons of competition.

Al- ready exerting influence on the course America takes, are registered voters Jon Felice, Bob Whitmire, Mike Aaron, Ste- phen Mowe, and Eric Gadlage. “Has it all been worth it?” David Stepp (below right) asks Will Rice. After six years here, seventh through twelfth grades, they ought to know. 79 80 What’s a heroic couplet? Seniors are right on track with their responses here. “I know! I know!” answer enthusiastic English IV students: Bill Per due, David Morgan, Ken Newcombe, Chet (I’d rather be surfing) Lightcap, Prescott Jordan, Mike Nelson, Mike Hargett, Gregg Baxter, Patrick McGraw (nearly obscured), Steve Robinson, Scott Garmon, Julio De La Guardia, Marty Christenson. A college prep curriculum affords cadets good grounding for higher education and for the world of work ahead. Varied extra-curricular activity supple- ments and builds upon academic foundations. Guid- ance takes root from the philosophy propounded in the eminent Alexander Pope’s aphorism, “As the twig is bent, so grows the tree.” Clubs and Academics Developing the whole man Education goals are to develop the whole man, mentally, physically, morally. Cadets enjoy personal, ongoing contact with teachers and with staff to promote these ends. Academic framework is college preparatory, a curriculum of Eng- lish, social studies, mathematics, science, and foreign language training. Small classes, such as Algebra I taught by Major Leigh Dellinger (opposite, left) and Chemistry, by Capt. Thomas Hesson (opposite, below), in the lab with Billy Dial and Jason Jesseph, provide the individual attention which enables stu- dents even with previous academic problems to succeed. Regular study periods and daily homework assignments develop self-discipline. David Stepp (bot- tom, left) makes the most of his studyhall and Jeremy Estroff (bottom) re- ceives help from BJ Lathan. Besides standard coursework, driver education and first aid training offer practical preparation for life. LTC Stephen Mowe (opposite, top right) assists a Red Cross instructor while Stephen Hayes, Beau Markoif, Tommy Brown, and Charlie Beam look on. For the musically inclined and talented, Capt. Vernon Clamp conducts band class (below) on the football field. The men behind curricular and extra-curricular activity are Dean of Stu- dents LTC James Dallas and Academic Dean Kelly Schrader (right). 82 83 Club experience is frequent and satisfying something for almost everyone. An important adjunct to classroom learning is the experience which clubs and organizations provide. Activity is frequent and satisfying. Damon Edmondson and Michael Balducci (right) practice Lincoln-Douglas debate before a tournament. National Forensics League members (opposite center) share their research while preparing for their next meet: Chet Lightcap, Carl Gantt (seat- ed), Douglas Eader, Michael Balducci, Damon Edmondson, Jim Mitchell, Scott Garmon (seated) Stephen Rogers, Jon Felice, Mark Pressley, and team adviser Capt. Scott Sloan. Debate team status demands discipline to prepare for public speaking and to present ideas logically and convincingly. Fine Arts Club membership is a ticket for cadets to attend cultural events on-campus and in the community beyond. Capt. Scott Sloan (opposite, top) preps the group on background before an art show visit: Davidson and Field (standing, bottom); (front) Perdue, Lightcap, Garmon; (middle) Felice Valdano, Kwiatek, Spencer; (top) Coleman, Cline, Pohlman, JR Mosier; (standing, top) Reinman, De La Guardia, Cullingford, CJ Mosier. At the Douglas-Reed House of the Kershaw County Fine Arts Center, Damon Edmondson (far right) concurs with Rob Whit- mire that $180,000 is a bit steep, even for a very good Sir Alfred Munnings oil painting. The work was included in a spectacular show of sporting art to coincide with Camden’s Colonial Cup Steeplechase, November 27. On campus, cadets volunteer for community service. Mrs. Melinda Kane, Librarian, supervises (below) Chad Mangum and Greg Ely in purging the card file. Lewis Sharp and Chris Rein- man (below, left) distribute latest magazines for recreational reading at Cline Library while Jason Jesseph (below, right) shelves returned books. Time spent pays off in library training for these assistants and assures superior service for cadet patrons. Major Dale Randolph (below right, opposite) is International Club adviser. Perusing pictures from south of the border are John Montezuma, a Colombian, resident in Singapore; Damon Saunders from Bermuda; Andres Valdano of Ecuador; Julio De La Guardia from Panama; and Alberto Montezuma, Colombian. Grouping of foreign students is informal and the club helps members establish identity in the community. Media focus on their countries makes them resident experts for background on international events. 84 85 Community service DKS, Junior Leadership, and Key Club Delta Kappa Sigma, honor society, is a prestige grouping of fifteen seniors and juniors, selected by faculty because of their proven leadership abilities, academic achievement, and good char- acter. Members enjoy fellowship at their meetings and opportuni- ties to attend cultural events and to dine out together. A major contribution by the group is semi-annual publication of the literary magazine Cadet. Members assist club adviser Major Lachicotte Zemp in screening submissions and in the processing of copy. Pictured (opposite, right) is Rob Whitmire conducting an informal meeting of DKS members Will Rice, David Stepp, JJ Campbell, Damon Edmondson, Eric Gadlage, Ted Hughes, Will Mitchell, Carl Gantt, and Mike Boiter. Major Zcmp stands in back. Junior and senior school leaders Gregg Baxter (below), Dana Lunsford (gesturing), Damon Edmondson, Mark Pressley, David Stepp, and Will Mitchell here discuss future participation in Ju- nior Leadership sessions, a program modeled after the adult Lead- ership in Kershaw County. With students from other county schools, cadets listened to South Carolina Speaker of the House Robert Sheheen, City Manager Gary Cannon, and others speak about stress management, communication skills, enthusiasm, and working with a group. The Junior Leadership program helps devel- op student leadership skills and promotes school spirit. Community participation enables students to know each other, to recognize mutual interests and needs, and to share their concerns. In its secondd year at CMA, Key Club is doing things.

The Adjutant is a completely in-house publication, its catalyst Major Lachicotte Zemp, English teacher. Contributors are many, but the bulk of articles are from junior Honors English students. Cadets submit copy for Friday afternoon production, and publication and distribution are on Mon- day. The newspaper effectively announces programmed school events and records happenings. Its stoic masthead Spartan undergoes metamorpho- ses on occasion to signal Thanksgiving, as a helmeted turkey, or Christmas, as an ancient Greek santa. The weekly “It’s Trivia Time” challenges the quick-witted to submit answers to often probing questions, first to respond correctly, receiving a free coke and sandwich from Carlisle House canteen. The Adjutant keeps the corps informed. The Excalibur emerges from Major Burton Gale’s senior Honors Eng- lish class. Lending support were Jon Felice, candid photographer, and Robby Mosier. Yearbook copy is chiefly “committee prose,” both the best portions and the gleanings of individuals’ classroom assignments. Yearbook production is hard work, time-consuming and often thankless, but when cadets receive their annuals in May, providing a record of another year of Camden memories, the effort seems worthwhile. The Adjutant Staff in action: Todd Scholl, Major Lachicotte Zemp, adviser, Scott Sperling (seated), Jim Mitchell, Michael Balducci, Kevin McDaniel, Mike Boiter, Douglas Eader, Matt Stokes. Excalibur staff members check out amusing photos: David Stepp, Will Mitchell, Damon Edmondson, Gregg Marlatt, Eric Gadlage. Fragmented group activity by yearbook staffers Jon Felice, Will Rice, JJ Campbell, Rob Whitmire, Major Burton Gale, adviser.

Being good in studyhall paid off for Harry Hanson with a visit from St. Nick, LTC Paul Cook. Capt.

Checking badges worn proudly on those jackets reveals that athletes may have lettered in three or even four differ- ent sports. Advised by Coach Eric Boland, Block “C” is distinguished company.

Christmas vacation began with seniors playing Santa Claus to faculty, presenting each, at pre-holiday lunch, an imaginative present, ranging from a “check” for a million dollars for Col. Risher to a “wabbit” for LTC Eller. Second semester commenced as George Bush launched his “just folks” presidency and Mikhail Gorbachev faced violent eruptions of nationalism in the USSR as he sought through elections a mandate for his three-pronged pitchfork of perestroika, glasnost, and demokratizatsiya. Alaska returned to media focus as the oiltanker EXXON Valdez struck Bligh Reef, the resultant spill fouling 800 miles of shoreline, devastating Prince William Sound, its crude-covered waters an environmental disaster. A terrorist bomb blew PANAM 747 Flight 103 out of Scottish skies and the Ayotollah Khomeini decreed death for writer Salman Rushdie, author of The Santanic Verses. Iran-Contra figure Oliver North prolonged his “fifteen minutes of fame,” his trial ending without a bang, the whimpering just perceptible. Fever rose worldwide over cold fusion, a discovery which held potential as important as invention of the wheel. Flight of the shuttle Discovery put us back in the space race. At Camden, John Arledge, Plant Superintendent, retired and Billy Watford, a five-year veteran here, filled the position. CSM(Ret) John Layne and Captain Keith Barlow joined the staff second semester. Key Club District 16 members elected sophomore Gary Spencer their Lieutenant Governor and Greg Baxter rated an “outstanding president” designation. CMA Voice of Democracy speech contest winner Lewis Sharp won second place in the county and third in the district while ninth grader Robby Mosier won the Kershaw County American Legion Oratorical Contest and placed second in zone competition. An Eastern Airline strike altered many well-laid cadet travel plans at spring break, some students spending whole days in air terminals on re-routed return trips. The Advocate, an underground publication, and “The Lizard’s Kingdom,” circulated hand-to-hand, lifted cadet satire to new heights, but only confirmed Jonathan Swift’s wry observation on human nature: “Satire is a sort of glass wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own.” We depart filled with optimism for a kinder, gentler CMA community to come.

Spring sports If sports success were measured only by contests won, the tennis team did not star, but motivation held high and a feeling of matches well played pervaded. The golf team started their season slow with a couple losses, took up the slack, and ended the regular season 4-5-1. Highpoint was the conference tuornament in Simpsonville with the Spartans placing third of six participating schools and Ashley Saulnier and David Stepp receiving All-Conference awards with scores of 83 and 79 respectively. The baseball team had their best season in recent history, posting an 11-5 record and winning the Caroli- na Athletic Association Conference title. Weather condidtions mixed early practice and led to an opening loss to North Central, 0-1. But after spring break Spartans Lewis Sharpe (5-3) and Gregg Marlatt (3-1) turned on the heart. Riding on the last game, against Christ School, was the conference title. Avenging an early season loss, the Spartans were victorious with a 2-1 win behind Sharp’s 13 strikeouts. Despite a 4-11 mark against other teams, the Spar- tan track squad enjoyed an undefeated regular confer- ence season and a third place finish in the Carolina Athletic Association meet. Conference champs includ- ed David Price in the 100 meter dash, Ron Landers in the 100 meter hurdles, and Rob Strickland in shot put. With a victory over Cheraw early in the season, Spartans hoped to be the soccer team to beat, but a close loss to Hammond Academy put a damper on spirits and contributed to the loss against Hilton Head the next day. Two games later the Spartans regrouped, started anew, and crushed Coastal Academy, a path to five final wins. Vince Minelli makes good use of his noggin in play against Coastal Academy.

At Sunday morning’s nine o’clock Se- nior Dress Parade, well-organized Class of ’89 pranksters provided fellow grads with tassels for their caps and, on signal, seniors affixed them with alligator “roach” clips and marched forward to be honored at their final review. At ten in the gym, Rev. Louie C. McDonald, youth pastor at First Baptist Church of Camden, was a commencement speaker to emulate. He analyzed his audi- ence, spoke their language, and held their attention throughout his presentation, in spite of sultry heat. Awards and recogni- tion continued through the graduation cer- emony. Gold Star awards for students with 90,0 averages or above for the second semester went to MS Aaron, Balducci, Barnett, Brook, JJ Campbell, Christenson, Eader, Edmondson, Flanagan, Gantt, Hughes, Jordan, Landers, LeVine, McDaniel, Mosier, Osborne, Pote, Rein- man, Rice, Saulnier, Sciulli, Spencer, Stokes, Warner, and Whitmire. Recog- nized for highest class averages were: JB Thornton, seventh grade; CJ Reinman, eighth; JR Mosier, ninth; M. Balducci, tenth; KD McDaniel, eleventh; RV Whitmire, twelfth. WR Rice earned sec- ond highest average among seniors, JJ Campbell, third. Cadet LTC William R. Rice was com- mended for his service as Battalion Com- mander and Robert V, Whitmire received the coveted James F. Risher Award, a peer selection which recognizes the senior most nearly exemplifying the ideal cadet. Col Risher presented diplomas, “Taps” sound- ed, and 42 graduates and five seniors who will complete requirements at the end of summer school marched out to “Pomp and Circumstance,” into alumni ranks. A final order for dismissal of the corps signalled end of the school year.
