POLICEWOMAN ON CAMPUS Policewoman Karen Miller was a new face on campus in ’81. She was part of a new program being tried by the Gadsden County School Board and the Sheriffs Department. When asked, she said she liked the program. She wanted to help students but could only help those who wanted help. She felt her job was important, and she had to give a 100% to it. Students had split opinions about it. Some said they did not like the program because they felt like they were in prison or being watched. Others said it was needed. Deputy Karen Miller CHANGE GREETED STUDENTS Something new greeted stu- dents at CHS when the ’80-’81 school term began. The au- ditorium had been refurbished. New seats replaced old ones, and the floor and stage had been refin- ished. The change made it more modem, but it maintained the nostalgia that alumni remember. School bus finds unusual stopping place. DRIVERLESS BUS TOOK TRIP In March, 1981, bus 38 was parked outside Chattahoochee High School. Around 9:00 A.M. students’ and teachers’ curiosity was aroused when someone looked from the window and saw that the bus was down the road and up a hill near Mr. and Mrs. Giles Toole’s house. The bus apparently had rolled down the incline in front of the school, hit a car, and went up the hill. The cause of accident was due to mechanical failure. New seats add modern look.

Our School CHS, A SCHOOL OF MANY ANGLES Chattahoochee High is a school that is uniquely herself. What makes her that way? Let us look at her from some different angles. Socially she has her own groups and ways of doing things that make her different. Her economic angle is typical of anywhere in today’s society. You can tell the times are rough, but she is not at the bottom of the economic ladder. Physically, she is an old school who has seen many things. Her bricks and buildings, for the most part, have been a part of older times. These angles make CHS a very individual school. Above: CHS from front aerial view. Cen- ter: CHS from side aerial view.

Our World MUSIC WORLD LOSES EX-BEATLE The year of 1980 brought many changes; some good and some shocking. One of the most shock- ing was the death of John Len- non. Lennon was shot to death in December, 1980, in front of his New York City apartment, as his wife Yoko Ono watched. Len- non was a former member of the band called the “Beatles.” The Beatles had toured the world and their music had inspired many. Lennon and his wife had just re- leased a new album, “Double Fantasy,” which included many hit songs. After his death many people hurried to record stores to buy the new album. Above: John Lennon and his wife, Yoko Ono, are shown at a 1972 peace rally. VOYAGER I AMAZES: IRAN CRISIS INFLAMES People around the world were enlightened by the pictures taken by Voyager I. These pictures added new knowledge to the U.S. about Saturn and its rings. However, while Voyager I was taking pictures, Americans were shocked, outraged, and worried about the hostages in Iran. This concern became greater when a rescue attempt to free the hostages failed, killing eight American servicemen. Above: This picture, taken by Voyager I, shows Saturn with Dione in forefront. Right: A burned-out helicopter and char- red helmet are reminders of the aborted rescue mission in Iran. 6-A Introduction
