PcOplE ANd AcAdEMICS Well, here we are— your faculty, and student body- all crammed into the next 34 pages. All our pictures lined up together look like those of every other high school yearbook: most are smiling, some are not; some are thrilled to be here, most are not. Like every other high school we take all the “goodies” like English, Math, and Science, but we’re not like every other high school— we live in Lunenburg County. Going to a small school doesn’t mean that we’re all “hicks” but it does mean that we all feel the effects of mall town and country life. ' . fternoon delight. Cecil Murray and Wanda Daw- Ji6n take time to flirt before sixth period classes. People and Academics 85

After the disappointment of losing their first game, the Junior Varsity went on to win the next twelve games. The outlook for the Varsity was not so good. After winning the first two games, the team went into a game against Prince Edward that began an onslaught of losses. As suddenly as this snow fell, the losses changed to victories and the outlook became brighter. When fallen snow refused to melt and ice accumulated on roads, games were cancelled repeatedly. Soon the deci- sion was made to postpone all games until the weather conditions became better. As the weather began to break and schools which had been closed because of the gas shortage reopened, a new problem faced coaches and teams. A conference of coaches and officials decided to run four or five games a week rather than the accustomed two. In spite of this sudden confusion, the Varsity often left the opponent behind with unmentionable scores. Although the losses outnumbered the wins, the team placed fifth in the district.
