Sadness. Anger. Jubi- lance. Jealousy. Hurt. Rejection. Love. Everyone has experienced these emotions. They shape our lives and rule our destiny. Emotions are why we have the “good times” as well as the “‘bad times”’. The interesting thing about emo- tions is that everyone experiences the same ones. The most comforting feeling occurs when you tell your friends about something that hap- pened and they say, “Yeah- I know exactly how you feel.” Being able to identify with each other’s emotions Move it, Move it, Move it!!!

But no matter what people feel, the imprint of their emotions will never be forgotten. In their unique ways, and on the paths of our lives, emotions are Making Tracks. 9 “I’m a wild and crazy guy!” Freshman Kevin Vance expresses his happiness during lunch hour.

THE FUN OF IT Laurel Hardy, Abbott Cos- tello, Bob Hope, Steve Martin, George Carlin, Rich Little, and Da- vid Brenner were the guys who taught us how to do it. And every- one has imitated them ever since. Having fun and being crazy have become national pastimes. Every- one needs to “let themselves go”’ to release the day’s tension. Several students have their own idea about what having fun is: Missy York, freshman - “Just going and talking to my friends.” Tammy Jones, freshman - “Being with friends or going to a party.” Amy Oare, sophomore - “Friday nights.” Hric Stritzinger, sophomore - ““Go- ing to the beach.” Mary Reubling, junior - “Going out with a guy you like.” Brian Rogerson, junior - “going out with a bunch of friends and get- ting rowdie.”’ Tommy Stritzinger, junior - “Go- ing with a bunch of people to TCC or Zero’s.” Diane Beasley, summer senior - “Going bowling with friends.” Maria York, senior - “Partying, go- ing to Burger King, and football games.” David Amory, senior - “Going down south for the weekend.” Although their thoughts vary, most of these students have fun when around friends. Friends and fun just seem to go together. Fun is also contagious. If you see people having fun, you want to share in that fun. Fun is a feeling that follows ev- eryone wherever they go; it spreads itself around and leaves happy thoughts and lasting imprints. Through fun, people are Making Tracks. Having Fun i Having Fun 5 6 Studying “No T.V. tonight - you have to study!”’ Many students are only too familiar with this parental lament. But studying is an important part of school life. According to one stu- dent, “As much as I hate it, it’s the only way to pass.” The word “‘studying” itself has an affect on people. When the word was mentioned, the first thoughts that came to students’ minds were “books,” “library,” “boring,” “stay- ing up late at night,” “bloodshot Concentration. Sherie Speegle, Mike Robert- son, and Wendi Thomasson exercise their pens in Ms. H. McMeeking’s sophomore Eng- lish class. omy eyes,” and “mental exhaustion.” Studying is time-consuming and many wonder if it is “worth the ef- fort.”” But the only alternatives are failing, or cheating. Cheating is very prevalent, and despite a new cheat- ing policy, many students remain uncaught. One anonymous student commented, “As long as I don’t get caught, what’s the difference? I ain’t been caught yet.” However, one honor student said, “It isn’t fair that some (students) study all the time to - ‘ Physic Exertion.

Stricter rules ought to be enforced.” But for the students who do study, it’s almost a way of life. Barely a night goes by without laboring over the books. Yet, in the end it’s re- warding. Studying means learning, and an educated person goes far in life, leaving impressions wherever he travels. By studying, students are Making Tracks. HITTING THE BOOKS AX + BX = CX.

Come on Truckers, let’s get ROWDIE!” Pep rallies are the picture of excitement and havea sensation of bleachers vibrating and hands clapping. This year’s competi- tion between juniors and seniors was more fierce than ever. Each side was constantly trying to outshout the other. The cheering competition, held during the Homecoming pep rally, was won by the juniors. Foot- ball player William Peebles felt that the rallies helped to motivate him to try to do his best. Many other play- ers also felt this way. They can scream, jump, and convince the stu- dent body of their “‘soon-to-be’’vic- tory. Unfortunately, there is a dark side to the story, too. During the latter portion of the season, the pep rallies were cancelled. Many students were disappointed because they missed the Friday morning excitement. One senior felt that the cancelled pep ral- lies may have been a contributing factor to the football team’s losses. However, many pep rallies were cancelled because the coaches and players did not want them. Twinkle toes. Senior cheerleaders Michele Degaraff, Anne Goldman and Janice Hicks motivate the crowd with rocketing enthusi- asm. Pep Rallies 11 Hail to the Chief. Republican candidate Ron- ald Reagan was elected the 40th President of the United States in a landslide victory. On election day at 8:15 p.m., before the polls in California had even closed, NBC news de- clared Reagan the winner. Reagan received 489 electoral votes to incumbent Jimmy Cart- er’s 49, marking a swing toward a more con- servative philosophy in the U.S. The Senate also gained a Republican majority, while the House remained under the control of the Democrats. “Now that I have your attention. . .”” David Younkins speaks for the Libertarian candi- date Ed Clark.

All six of the Presidential candidates listed on the Virginia bal- lot were represented by senior gov- ernment students, as were the two candidates for the House of Repre- sentatives. The Presidential candi- dates and their representatives were: Jimmy Carter(Cindy Black- well), Ronald Reagan (Mike Wild) John Anderson (Bobby Knox), Barry Commoner (Mary St. George), Clifton deBerry (Susan Wiggins), and Ed Clark (David Younkins). The candidates for the House were Cecil Jenkins (Annette Davis) and Robert Daniel (Debbie Fellman). A week was set aside before the election for registration with a dead- line of October 31, and the voting was done by secret ballot outside the auditorium after the November 3 as- The Unknown Voter. On November 3, regis- tered voters like this mystery student cast their ballot for President. sembly. In this assembly, each representa- tive. was given the opportunity to speak for his or her candidate. Of course, each candidate left the stage to shake hands with the people in the front rows while the band played. Other highlights also enlivened the assembly. First, the very enthu- Siastic Jimmy Carter supporters were inspired to run down the aisle after Cindy Blackwell’s speech. Then, the speech that Mary St. George gave in support of Barry Commoner was followed by a pre- sentation of branches to the people in the front row. Also, David Youn- kins’ speech for Ed Clark was ac- cented by two alert-looking body guards (who were in reality Tony Mault and Ricky Mytych). After the ballots were counted, Ronald Reagan was found to be the “President-elect.”” Robert Daniel won the House seat. Signed, co-signed, and signed again! A con- glomeration of campaign posters plastered the auditorium in preparation for Monday’s mock election. “You know he works for you.” Senior gov- ernment students also represented 4th Dis- trict Congressional candidates. Debbie Fell- man speaks on behalf of incumbent Bob Dan- iel. Mock Election 13 RAIN, The theme of Homecoming was “MAGIC”, an ironic theme because we really could have used a little! The Homecoming Co mmittee faced an unusual situation-it rained! In ad- dition to this, only four organiza- tions entered floats in the parade. The football game was postponed until Saturday night, but the crown- ing of the queen was held Friday night at the dance in the gym. The dance, featuring “Red Bird” was ar- ranged by Homecoming committee chairman, Sandra Darley. Janice Hicks was crowned Homecoming Queen, and Gina Phillips won the ti- tle of Maid of Honor. A spirit contest was held during Homecoming week. Activities in- cluded a flag re-dedication, bonfire, RAIN GO AWAY Traitor day, Homecoming assembly, Trucker day, and concluded with Homecoming. The seniors won the spirit contest, placing first in every activity except two. The juniors won the pep rally, and the freshmen won the float competition. Perhaps a little magic was present because theTruckers clenched their first victory of the season with a 28-6 win over Manor. The yearbook had its own prob- lems as well. Due to the weather, editor Debbie Supinski could not lo- cate the photographer. “I was al- most in a frenzy. After about thirty phone calls and awild goose chase I luckily ran into the photographer at the school!” Smile! Members of the 1980-81 Homecoming court pose prior to the evening’s coronation.

Along with the Homecom- ing floats, the parade featured the Little League teams and cheerleaders, and many students like Lori Thomas dressed up to de- light the crowd. 14 Homecoming A little magic.

Or waiting in a mile- long lunch line for a lunch? The lunch period is the social high-point of the school day. It is the only time when students can talk freely without getting in trouble. Many students, however, escape the delicious fragrances of the cafeteria by eating and talking outside on the baseball bleachers. Although lunchtime is usually the “relaxing” period of the day, tension among students was evident. By the middle of October, two major food fights had occurred in the cafeteria. According to the October Trucker Topics, ‘the mass food- throwing oc- curred from individual incidences that encouraged other students to participate.” In addition to this general clamor and uproar, a new lunchroom sound arrived: music. Adam Scarr headed the SCA committee which worked Lunchtime solitude. The steps outside the lunchroom provide a quiet place for John Field to eat his ice cream sandwich. Mile long line. Because students were late to class due to long lunch lines, an extra five minutes was added onto the lunch period. to get music played during lunch- time. This committee polled stu- dents to find out which radio sta- tions were most popular. The top four stations were K94, FM99, Q104%, and WOWI. A schedule was set up by which each stations was played periodically to ensure fair- ness to all students. Inflation hit the cafeteria, as it did everywhere else. Prices rose on ev- ery item except milk, with stayed at 10¢. Lunches jumped from 50¢ to 60¢, Coolie fruit drinks from 25¢ to 30¢, and ice cream from 20¢ to a quarter. a Hurry, Hurry, Step Right Up.

While most stu- dents continued to give the familiar answer “I don’t know and I don’t care” to the question “Is ignorance or apathy worse at school?’, one group of students took positive ac- tion. Mrs. Brady’s third period speech class decided to put the “pep” back in Churchland. Soon, posters promoting various And what do you think, sir?

Then, announce- ments beginning with “P.S.S.T.” were made regularly. This “propa- ganda” culminated in an assembly. Though most students knew the as- sembly had something to do with “P.S.S.T.”, few ventured any guess- es as to its real purpose. But the assembly revealed all, and theme bio. 5s lae Promote School z ; : i ¥ Jock of the century. Trey Williams decides to try his hand at golf in an attempt to be a jock and attract the girls.

Two of these presentations were especially popular. In one, five cho- rus members gave their rendition of the Eagles’ song “Seven Bridges Road,” amidst screams imitating the popular live recording. And ina skit, Trey Williams despaired over his bad luck with females, claiming “the jocks get all the girls.” Setting his goals toward being “Jock of the Cen- tury,” Trey decided to go out for sports (and girls). But after contin- ually striking out with sports (and the girls), Trey realized that sports weren't the only way to get girls, or support the school. The assembly ended as the cheer- leaders were asked to come up and lead the students in a pep cheer. The whole production was re- ceived with laughter and applause, and students talked about it all day. And thanks to the “P.S.S.T.,” a bit of pep came back to Churchland. Wide-eyed southern boys.

In the morning, the parking lot is an un- welcome sight, bringing thoughts of boredom, drudgery, and possibly fear to the mind. But does anyone ever take a good look to see what is actually found here? Students are too absorbed in their own thoughts to notice their surroundings. First of all, if anyone has ob- served, there is a new arrangement of white lines and parking spaces. This divides the parking lot in two, beter aL) Pr. Pon Ta 2 ee am t [ eRe “Site eA som - 2?

Here they enjoy the latest bit of gossip, the last drag of a cigarette (or other ills of society) before the bell rings.

It is usually so deserted that the only thing that breaks the quiet is the cry of a seagull as he scavenges for food. However, anywhere from 10:45, when the first students start emerg- ing from the dark corriders of school, until 2:00, there is a constant flow of students leaving for the day. This breaks the dead silence of the parking lot so there are sounds of laughter, roaring engines, and con- stant chatter. Buses! While some students drive their own cars to school, most ride one of the 14 yellow school buses, which sit on the lot where the “class of 80” (?) sign makes its mark. Improvement.

Fund Raising 29 ——CHS POLES In October, 1980, the Trucker ’81 yearbook staff polled the students to determine their “favorites” in elev- en different categories. Approxi- mately 850 out of the school’s nearly 1100 students responded to the polls. Votes were tabulated and the top ten of every category was deter- mined. However, many ties oc- curred and consequently some list- ings included more or less than the top ten favorites. So here it is- what you the stu- dents chose as your favorites: Favorite Singing Group Or Singer 1. Lynyrd Skynyrd 2. Cameo 3. Switch Led Zeppelin 4. Robbin Thompson Band ©). Van Halen 6. Pat Benatar Queen 7. The Jacksons 8. Rossington-Collins Band 9. Billy Joel 10. Eagles. The Southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd was voted favorite group. The members of the group were Ronnie Van Zant, Allen Collins, Gary Rossington, Leon Williams, Billy Powell, Steve Gaines, and Arti- mus Pyle. A plane crash in 1977 that killed guitarist Steve Gaines and sin- ger song-writer Ronnie Van Zant was the cause of the group’s brea- kup. Within the last year, Allen Col- lins, Gary Rossington, Leon Wil- liams, and Billy Powell have joined together to form a new hit group called the Rossington-Collins Band. Over one hundred different Favorite Teacher Mrs. L. Lassiter, who has been teaching at Churchland for 14 years, has been chosen as favorite teacher. When asked why she thinks she was picked, she says, “I come in contact with individuals, and it’s not by teaching. People come up to my door to say hello and sometimes I don’t know who they are.” Mrs. Lassiter 30 CHS Polls . Mrs. Lassiter . Mr. Paige . Don’t have a favorite teacher Coach Parker Mrs. Mangus .

Among these were Alvin and the Chipmunks, who received a surprising four votes, and our own Villagers who received two votes. Also receiving two votes was Slim Whitman, England’s number one male vocalist who has “‘sold more re- cords than Elvis Presley and the Beatles.” Groups and _ individuals who received one vote include the Vienna Boys Choir, Lawrence Welk, Don Ho, Fats Domino, Luciano Pa- voratti, the CHS Choral Depatg ment, and Mr. Morgan. Favorite Pizza Place 1. Pizza Hut 2. Milton’s 3. Zero’s 4. Jimmy’s 5. Giovanni’s Pizza has become one of the most popular “eat out” foods, and Pizza Hut was selected as the favorite place to eat at. Pizza Hut’s popular- ity stems from the choice it offers between thin and crispy pizza and the new thick Sicilian Pan Pizza. Both come topped with the pizza- lovers choice of ingredients. Pizza| Hut also offers other Italian foods,, and the ever popular salad bar. Whether dining out for pizza, or| , placing a take-out order, Church-| ; land students agree that Pizza Hut i is, ; the best place to go. ; = Ss oe a — a a a Bases fade Se Sa ae Favorite Sport .

Gymnastics 2 x 7 N oo The rough playing and constant aggression of the sport of football draws the attention of millions of ' fans each season. Football is not just a game of violence, but a game of intensive strategy which revolves around the players themselves. For this reason, players are paid hand- somely for their performances. The better the player, the more money he will receive. Salaries in profes- sional football range from $30,000 up to $400,000 a year. While football continues to be mainly a business franchise, the sport itself is loved very much by the American people. Favorite Soap Opera It is no surprise that General Hos- pital is the most watched soap opera. With Susan and Alan’s secret affair, and Laura’s and Luke’s memories of going back to Beechers Corner the way they were, the viewer is always left with tension and anticipation for the next day’s show. Although the show has retained most of the original cast, there have been some additions. New charac- ters include: Alex Qyadermain and the business of the “Ice Princess,” including Robert Scorpio and Rob- ert Duvall (alias Curt Wheeler); Anthony Cassadine alias Tony Cas- tle; and Noah Drake-the mysterious new lover of Bobbi Spencer. Another exciting “story within a story” is the matter of Heather kill- ing Diana Taylor, causing Jeff to leave Port Charles and his dearly beloved Anne. Will Jeff ever come back? Will Alan’s and Susan’s affair be discov- ered by Monica? Will Joe Kelley solve the mystery of Diana’s death? These questions and many more re- main to be answered in the weekly episodes of General Hospital. 1. General Hospital 2. Guiding Light 3. All My Children 4. The Young and the Restless 5. SOAP 6.

This album contains many of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s classic songs from their previous albums. Some hits which are included in the album are “Sweet Home Alabama,” ““The Needle and the Spoon,” and “‘Free- bird.”” Lynyrd Skynyrd’s Gold and Platinum was released in 1979 and 1.

The Sound of Music Mother’s Day Up in Smoke 10. The Blues Brothers Smokey and the Bandit Slap-stick comedy, coupled with the antics of Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder, made Stir Crazy a big box-office hit. The story centers around Pryor and Wilder, two New Yorkers who lose their jobs and move to Califor- nia in search of a brighter future. In total desperation, they accept a job as “birds” to promote a bank. They are framed by bank robbers and wind up in prison. The rest of the plot reveals their escape from the prison as rodeo clowns. And throughout the movie, one of the prison guards does his best to em- barrass, discredit, or even kill them. Favorite Candy Bar Snickers candy bars are not only the favorite candy of the school, but also of Forrest E. Mars, Sr. because they are making him a very rich man. Mr. Mars, of the Mars candy company which makes Snickers, is the second richest man in the United States. He makes approximately $800,000 to $1 million in earnings yearly. Many students said they enjoyed the candy bar ‘“‘because Snickers is packed with peanuts and caramel.” What more can they say? 1. Snickers 2. Baby Ruth 3. Hershey’s Chocolate Bar 4. Butterfinger 5.

This song appeared on three of their al- bums: Pronounced Lynyrd Skynyrd, the live album One More From the Road, and Lynyrd Skynyrd’s Gold and Platinum. There were songs that did not place in the top ten but received votes in the poll. Among these were “Disco Duck,” “Sangers Lust Polka” by the Vienna Boys Choir, and “Sleigh Ride” by Englebert Hum- pe rdink. These songs are not your great hits but apparently somebody likes them. Se TE ee Ce a RE a ee ot ea = 5 5 Favorite Television Program Dallas, the highest rated program of 1980-81, is a weekly nighttime soap opera serial which offers plenty of nastiness and rivalry involving a Texas millionaire family known as the Ewings. The show delves deep into the conflicts of the Ewings, and one family member in partcular- the biggest villain of television history- J. R. Ewing. Dallas drew its biggest audience when J.R. was shot by a mystery person at the end of a season. No one knew whether he would live or die. Soon, most of the world asked the question, ‘““Who shot J.R.?” (And others said, “Who cares?’’) In the first episode of the new season, the would-be murderess was discovered to be J.R.’s sister-in-law and his mis- tress, Kristan. This episode broke all previous rating records. The latest season has left a girl’s body floating in a swimming pool, and once again fans must wait all summer for an answer. 1. Dallas 2. SOAP 3.

Her hard work, determi- nation, and love for the theatre and its aspects has been the backbone of the Drama Club for eight years. All of the contest plays under her direc- tion have placed first in district com- petition. Many of these also went to state finals, including Who Am I This Time, in 1978, and My Cup Runneth Over, in 1980. When asked which production year she has considered her best, Mrs. Brady commented, “There aren’t any ‘best’ seasons; each year is different. There are different peo- ple and different plays. You can’t compare one year with another.” Mrs. Brady’s abilities are not just confined to the stage. As the head of the Forensics Team, she has led them to first place awards seven times out of eight. Mrs. Brady also teaches English and Speech. She formerly taught English, drama, and debate at Wil- son High School. Edgar M. Morgan-Princi- pal. B.A.-Frederick Col- lege; C.A.S., M.Ed.-William and Mary.

She has also held public offices, such as president of the Portsmouth School Board. Mr. R. Audet, English teacher, re- membered that he first met Mrs. Brady in 1953 when she was his teacher. According to him, she’s “the finest teacher all-around. She’s recognized in all area theatres and theatre groups.” Mr. Audet added, “Even at a meeting in Richmond, you saw people stand up and wave, ‘Hey, Mary Jo!’ when she walked into the room.” Many of Mrs. Brady’s students can be found in major universities around Virginia and other parts of the United States in high positions and standings. Mr. Audet also commented on Mrs. Brady’s 1981 retirement; “She has a cottage in North Carolina and a daughter in Texas. She needs time to visit her and be with her.” Our school would like to take this opportunity to give praise and thanks to this great lady. She has enriched so many lives, and has giv- en us standards to speak, act, and do by. Thank you, Mrs. Brady. Director’s concentration.

Ms. Short’s students will tes- tify to her dedication to politics, but few of them realize just how far that dedication goes. Ms. Short did volunteer work in college, but her political ca- reer really got started in 1976 when she worked with Billy O’Brien’s campaign for Con- gress. In 1977, she worked for Chuck Robb, and the next of her activities was helping out when Richard Davis decided to run for state chairman. But her biggest responsibility came when she was elected as an alternate delegate to the Democratic National Conven- tion in New York in 1980. A week before the Conven- tion, Ms. Short was invited with other delegates to Washington, D.C. for a briefing day with the members of the Cabinet and Brezhinsky. Ms. Short said, “There was a White House re- ception, and the President (Jim- my Carter) and the First Lady were there. The President said he liked my first name. Concerning the Convention itself, Ms. Short explained, “Anytime any member of the Virginia delegation wanted to leave the floor, I was able to take their place. I was on the floor most of the time.” Ms. Short says that she most- ly enjoys ‘working in politics and working with so many peo- ple I teach about. It means much more when you can talk to (politicans); you get to know personalities. I think you appre- ciate politics much more when you work in it.” Ms. Short is currently work- ing as assistant campaign man- ager for candidate Jerry Beliles in Richmond. a 5 Josephine M.

Marked by contriversies as well as various activities, members of the class of “81” made their final marks as high school members. The 184 seniors were led by: president- Don- na Taylor; vice president-Jeannie Collins; secretary- Kendra Davis; treasurer- Susan Boyer; sponsor- Ms. Harriett McMeeking; and guid- ance counselor- Mrs. India Wheeler. The tradition of the annual pow- Elizabeth J. Dunlap 54 Seniors Du-Fi Dewey L.

Mr. Edgar Morgan, principal, would not let the male cheerleaders participate since the cheerleaders from the previous year were the subject of several com- plaints. Some seniors felt that pow- der-puff was one event that brought the junior and senior classes togeth- Lianne E. Eldridge Check your temperature? Senior class offi- cers are Jeannie Collins, Donna Taylor, Ken- dra Davis, and Susan Boyer. er. They also felt that the guys’ cheering was an important part of the game. Consequently, they decid- ed on no powder-puff game. Class of “81”? members were in- volved in another problem. The sen- iors had ordered class T-shirts with everyone’s name on them, but due to a confusion in printing agree- ments, the dispute was taken to court. The money was returned to the senior class and the T-shirt or- ders were placed with another com- pany. The spirit of the senior class pre- vailed at the first pep rally when the Class of “81” sign was unveiled. The sign was made by Arthur Ashe, Tony Mault, and David Younkins. Spirit was also high during the week of Homecoming when the class won the Sprit Week Contest by a land- slide. During their final high school year, many seniors were busy pre- paring for college. Some members of the class went “college shopping”’ to evaluate certain campuses. Others went to the College Fair at Scope on November 25 to talk to representa- tives from hundreds of Virginia and out-of-state colleges. All college- bound seniors were bombarded with varoius tests such as the SAT and Achievement Tests. But, the biggest memory for all class members was the culmination of the senior year, which included “Senior Week”’, and the peak of high school years - - GRADUATION!! John E. Field Milton L.

Osborne Lynn B. Owen SENIOR REFLECTIONS Being a senior involves a special feeling of superiority, confidence, — and a little bit of fear for the future. The senior year is also a time to look back on the past four years and re- call all the good things that have happened. Several seniors have put into words that “being a senior’ means to them, and their most memorable moments for the past four years. Here are their thoughts: Tony Mault “Being a senior is the ending of an era, but the beginning of another.” “The most memorable moments have been playing soccer for Churchland High School.” Darlene Lytton-White “Being a senior means thinking back on the best things of the past, and looking forward to the better things of the future.” “My most memorable experiences are Villagers, cheering, after-game dances, and many etceteras.”’ Sandy Darley “Being a senior means knowing that - when I look at what is behind me and what is ahead - my life has only just begun!”’ “My most memorable moments at CHS are ‘Some Enchanted Even- ings’ with a wonderful guy! (doing South Pacific, 1979) Jeannie Collins “Being a senior is to treasure the past and anxiously await the future!” The most memorable moment was “the day that I finally realized what I wanted my life to be like.” Lianne Eldridge “Being a senior means having a real reason to be looked up to!” Russell Warren “Being a senior means feeling superior (to freshmen, at least).”’ “The most memorable event was “when my dad bought me my car.” Mary St. George “Being a senior means I get out of school in June!”’ Johnny Gonzalez “The Home- coming Dance was one of my good experiences because it was the first time I got a date in America. Nobody told me the customs about dates, so I danced with most of my friends. The girl I dated didn’t tell me anything but Iam sure she wanted to kill me. Kendra Davis “Being a senior to me means waiting at the mailbox for SAT scores, for college junk, and for letters from a very special guy. To my family it means having to put up with me if I don’t receive any mail.” “My most memorable experience in high school was the night of the Miss Churchland Pageant. I think the memory of this night was very special to all the people who partici- pated in the pageant.” Lene Latham “Being a senior means: 1. Being able to get out of school early. 2. Being exempt from exams. 3. Being able to dance during lunch and have everyone admire you. 4. Not having to worry about the prom. 5. Feeling superior because we are older and, of course, wiser than those other lower class jerks. 6. Having “senior tables” at lunch. 7. Trading senior portraits. 8. Ordering caps and gowns.” Adam Scarr Being a senior means “finally getting out of Churchland.” The most memorable experience was “Governor’s school.”’ Debbie Supinski “Being a senior means absolutely nothing. The sun still rises in the east every morning and sets in the west.” “My most memorable experience was definitely being editor of this yearbook. Never before have I learned so much about the actions and attitudes of so many people in so short a time.” Laurie Ryskamp Being a senior means “getting out of school, going to college, and being on my own.”’ The most memorable experiences were ‘“‘the debates in Mr. Mancuso’s class. I said something really embar- rassing in one and I'll never forget that. Seniors N-0 59 THE GRAND UNVEILING 60 Seniors P-Re TORE No Seniors are 1! Tony Mault, David Younkins, and Arthur Ashe display their summer’s work. The class of “81’’ was without a sign until their senior year. After an exceptionally long wait, there it was! Yes, the senior class sign had finally arrived! The sign was built by Arthur Ashe, Tony Mault, and David Youn- kins. These three seniors made the sign in their spare time over the summer. Arthur and David bought the wood and cut it into the “81” shape. At that time, Tony came along just in time to help with the painting and other finishing touch- es. “Painting the trim took the long- est,” commented David, “because the work was so detailed.” The sign was unveiled at the first pep rally where it was enthusiasti- cally accepted by the class of “81”’. Afterwards, Tony said, “Just seeing the reaction of the crowd made me realize that all of our hard work was worth it.” Béne L. Pablo Joy A Pirtle Deborah H. Reid Richard K. Phelps Adelaide M.

Even though to most people it is a fun pastime, to Debbi McCaskill it’s much more. Debbi is a strong competitor in the sport of roller skating and has placed in national competition five times. In competition, roller skaters compete in many different areas: freestyle and figures (individual events); and dance, freedance, and pairs (events with partners). However, Debbi mainly competes in freestyle, figures, and some dance. According to Debbi, freestyle is, “skating a routine to music. You’re jumping, spinning, and doing footwork.” She also com- pared it to freestyle competition in ice skat- ing. Debbi does moves such as double rotation jumps, double toe loops, and double salchows. She is currently working on “triples” for many of her jumps, also. ““We pick our own music but it has to be approved by our coach,” says Debbi. Her coaches, (who happen to be her parents, owners of the Plaza Roller Rink in Portsmouth) make up her routines. In freestyle, the skaters are judged on footwork (dance and overall appearance) and items (jumps and spins). The other area of competition is figures. As in ice skating, this involves tracing circles on the floor. But where ice skaters must cut and retrace their own circles, roller skaters trace 62 Seniors St-Su VICRORM circles already on the floor. Here, judges make sure skaters accurately trace the cir- cles. They also look for placement and cusp of the turns. Debbi, now 18, began roller skating at the age of 2 and competing at the age of 8. In 1975, when she was only 12, Debbi started placing high enough in regionals to advance to na- tional competition, and has been to the na- tionals every year since then (except for 1976). She has placed among the top ten in the country in both figures and freestyle since 1978: Debbi has just moved up to the World Class Event. This means she is competing with the best in the country, and she is now eligible to compete in world competition. “T don’t think I’l] make it to world competi- tion in ’81 but if I skate well I’d have a chance to make it to the national finals.’’ Debbi says her routines can look great in practice but, “‘it just all depends on how I skate that one time in front of the judges.” She added, “I hope to make it to the world meet in a year or two.” Debbi not only enjoys skating now, but hopes to make a career out of it. “Roller skating is a year-round competitive sport and I enjoy the artistic aspect of it very much. Someday I hope to become a skating coach to help others obtain their goals as skaters.” Denise A. Stublen Deborah M. Supinski Gliding arabesque. During the Portsmouth Area Junior Miss Scholarship Program, Debbi McCaskill skates for the talent portion of the pageant. Debbi won the talent award for her group. Ellen V. Sutton Scott E.

These officers have been working hard on class activities since their freshmen year. Some of their com- ments and personal feelings are quoted below. “T never considered being a class officer before the spring of tenth grade. When the election came up, I though about running for vice presi- dent. I wanted to learn what goes into running a class. At the urging of friends, I decided to run for presi- dent. After one vote which ended in a tie and a second vote, I won. My responsibilities did not really begin until this year when prom arrange- ments had to be made.” -Brian Carr, President “T have been vice president since my freshman year. However, the job didn’t get complicated until this year. My duties began with the col- lection of class dues, arrangements for the arrival of class rings, fund raising for the prom, and the annual powder-puff which was cancelled. Although I have been kept busy with my office, I have enjoyed the long hours spent with friends, build- ing floats, decorating and undecorat- ing at unusual hours for dances, and selling stadium cushions. I wouldn’t trade those times for anything.”’ Sherry Hawkins, Vice President “The office of secretary is an ex- citing and encouraging job. I wanted to get involved with the officers be- cause I wanted to help plan the prom and boost school spirit. I honestly expected the office to demand more time, but it does not. However, the time it does require , I dedicate will- ingly. I like working with the offi- cers; we get along great. The junior class has finally gotten it’s act to- gether and made things happen. Our class sponsor, Miss Blount, has helped and supported us tremen- dously. The class of ’82 has really added a touch of class to me as a CHS union. -Amy Falk, Secretary “T became treasurer of the sopho- more class because we needed some- body. This year I became treasurer because I really enjoy it. The trea- surer’s responsibilities include col- lecting fund raising money, collect- ing dues, and to update the books. I like working with the officers to bea part of the class of 1982.” -Tracey Howell, Treasurer Se Juniors ¢ Juniors e Juniors Ju, | Charles Blakely Shirley Blowe Cynthia Bowden Cynthia Bowman Raynard Boyce Donna Buchanan Alford Bullock Melissa Butler Sherri Calhoun Teresa Cameron Frank Cannizzaro Celia Cannon Darryl Cannon Lisa Carney Brian Carr Willie Carter Chris Cason Victoria Caviness Daniel Christian Jun Chung Lyndon Clark Kevin Clary Marcy Claussen Katrina Clinton Janet Cobb Richard Cooke Richard Copeland William Corl Abbie Cornatzer Brenda Costello Lori Creecy Shelly Cruze Paul D’Amato Debora Daprano Marie Degaraff Michael Deloatch Joey Denaro Gregory Dodd Dana Douglas Franklin Drake Matthew Drewery Barbara Driedric Juniors 67 Christopher Durham Anthony Eleftherion Jonathan Ely Laura Esau Amy Faulk Marie Faulks — TWMic rts | JUM1Ors Wanda Faulks Angela Foskey Alberta Franklin Gene Frederick Michael Frenia Rhonda Gagne Patrick Gallagher HKarlveni Garrett Thomas Garrett Elvin Gay Heather Geiss Robin Gibson ore s s J1iHio0rse 3 mw. o Bee ayy ‘ ° e e e e e e ( Juniors « Juniors e Juniors ¢ Juniors « Juniors e Juniors e Juniors ¢ Jt j Katherine Gilliam | Linda Gillie Timothy Glynn Kimberly Goldman Mary Beth Gooden Dave Goodwin Robert Haislip Andrea Hannah Barry Harbour Deloris Hardy Telathia Harrell Rodney Harris Shelley Harrison Sherry Hawkins Sue Haywood Kelvin Henley Tracy Hill Michael Hoffman Joseph Hood Kimberly Houston Tracy Howell Bridget Hurley Roy Jamison Gary Jennings 68 Juniors - JULILVULS F JULLLULS F F JULILOLS Y¥LUILDS Noelle O’Hara began studying bal- let at the age of five. According to Noelle, “I was a very weak child and my parents thought ballet would strenghtnen me.” Noelle has been dancing for thirteen years. Present- ly, she dances at Old Dominion Uni- versity with the ODU Va. Beach Community Ballet. Ballet is a very strenous art. A good dancer must put many hours and years of dedication into it. Noelle practices two to five hours every day. She misses many school activities because of the tremendous amount of time she spends at ballet. However, Noelle comments, “The joy of being on stage is enough ful- fillment for me to make it worth- while.” Noelle has a long performance re- cord.

I just know it will be fantastic.” Well, it was fantastic! On Septem- ber 26, 1980, the class of 1982 finally received their rings. The rings ranged in size from the small, dain- ty, ‘“after-five” rings, to the larger, more masculine letterman’s ring. The stones were available in several shades of every birthstone color. The response to the ring sales was excellent, despite the outrageous price of gold. Prices ranged from about sixty to one hundred-ninety dollars. Teacher’s seemed to dread this day because of the constant inter- ruptions of class time. However, the juniors did not mind the interrup- tions at all. Everyone who had pur- chased a ring couldn’t wait to sport it. Every junior had their ring turned the magic eighty-two times. To make the receiving of the class rings more memorable and special, the junior class representatives and officers had planned a ring dance. Much dispute and confusion went on throughout the junior class involv- ing the dance, and only twenty peo- ple wanted to attend. Thus, the dance was cancelled and the rings were distributed during school. Nevertheless, the juniors will al- ways remember this day and cher- ish those long awaited rings. 70 Juniors Ring around the finger. On September 26, 1980, the class of 1982 received their class rings. There were many styles such as (clock- wise from bottom) Brenda Costello’s dinner ring, “Lady Flair” (gold); Susie Parson’s girl’s class ring (silver); Julie Atkinson’s lady prin- cess (gold); Jay Whetzel’s letterman’s ring (gold); and Becky William’s dinner ring (gold). ‘S e SUOINIMU ¢ ot fee sOINOL ¢ SHOINDL Michael Murray William Mytych Nilsa Naper Michele Norton Marie Oliver Susan Olson Jimmy O’Quinn Christine Pablo Jose Panlilio Robert Parker Theodore Parks Susan Parsons Charles Pearce Cynthia Perry Robin Perry Thomas Phillips Dana Pidgeon Shelly Pidgeon e JUNIORS « JUNIORS ¢ JUNIORS ¢ JUNIORS ¢ JUNIORS ¢ JUNIC Michael Poissant Joseph Ramsey Troy Reynolds Betty Richey Carl Ricks Shelia Roberts Angela Robertson Virginia Rose Kenneth Rowsey Mary Ruebling Gail Rumper Ronald Russell Sharon Russell Thomas Ryder James Sebrell Donald Silcott Traci Smith Ricky Sterling Ann Stovall Helen Stovall Robin Stowe Thomas Stritzinger Carol Swan James Swann Juniors 71 Johnny Swann Ida Terrell John Terrell Martin Terrell Jonathan Thomas Lori Thomas Dana Torrain Charlene Townsley Anne Tredway Connie Tyson Tracie Wagner Donna Wainwright Bobby Walker Larry Walsh Eric Watkins Jordan Watkins Jeffrey Weiseman Jim Welsh Jay Whetzel Alan White Matthew White Paula White Lynda Whitfield Kurt Wickham Samuel Wiggins Todd Wilder Beverly Williams Cynthia Williams Darelle Williams Janet Williams Lisa Williams Rebecca Williams Richard Williams Lyn Wilson Pamela Wilson William Winn Gregory Wright Thomas Wright Harold Wylie Vincent Xenakis Randall Younkins 72 Juniors oo peg is SJOIUNL’ e SIOTUNL eSLOIUNfeSTOTUN PeSLOTUN 2 Pe a ae al i et A winning smile. Gina Phillips placed eighth in the country in the Miss Teen All- American Pageant. Junior Feature: Gina Phillips A “Model” Student “Being a participant in any pagent is the most exciting thing I have ever encountered,” remarked Gina Phillips, model and the New Miss Va. Teenager. Gina became interested in model- ing through the support and encour- agement of her mother, and has mo- deled since she was 13. Gina’s moth- er also encouraged her entrance into the Miss Va. Teenager Pageant. “My mother saw the ad in the newspaper and sent it in with the information about me and my picture. Then they sent me an acceptance letter which meant I could participate in the pre- liminary judging.” Eighty-five girls from Norfolk, Portsmouth, Chesa- peake, and Hampton participated in this preliminary judging and from these girls twenty-four were picked to compete. After a weekend competition at the Omni in Norfolk, Gina was se- lected Miss Va. Teenager 1980. Then she continued to the Miss Teen All- American Pageant in Florida where she finished eighth. Gina’s next pur- suit is the Miss Va. Pageant in which 86 girls will compete. “I like modeling because of the glamour and being in the public eye,’ Gina admits. Her career plans include more pageants, attending college in the fall with a major in fashion merchandising, and further- ing her modeling career. Gina’s phi- losophy is, “Always have a positive attitude and anything your mind can conceive and believe it can achieve.” Juniors Not Pictured Kathryn Babb Robert Babb Melvin Bell Vernon Blowe Leonard Brown Vivian Brown Donna Buchanan Carl Dail Judith Edmonds James Griggs Allison Grimsley Stephen Gross Ernestine Hargrove Douglas Harrell Kevin Hasty Charles Keefer Donald Kent Deric Lee Soong Lee Leslie Matsushige Andre McGee Matthew McLain Demetria Moon Karen L.

The class wanted to raise money in hopes of sponsoring a freshman-sophomore prom. The prom was not held last year because of lack of money and interest, and this year the sophomores wanted to bring back this memorable occasion. However, the dance was once again canned. In efforts to sponsor other activi- ties, the class raffled off a turkey be- fore Thanksgiving. Mr. Morgan an- nounced Mrs. Sara Grigg as the win- ner in the drawing held in front of the auditorium. Other money-making projects, in- cluding candy and donut sales, helped the class raise money in an- ticipation of next year’s junior-sen- ior prom. Led by sponsor Mr. R.

You never know if the persons talking to you thinks he’s talking to you or your twin.” Being a twin has it’s advantages and disadvantages. Sharon, remem- bering an advantage, commented, 78 Sophomores “Once when I was real young, my mom fed me twice.” Recalling disad- vantages, Marion and Irene com- mented, “Our brothers gave up a long time ago calling us by our names. Now they just call us ‘girls.’” We discovered the only way to tell our twins apart is by their weight, height, glasses or no glasses, and as Irene says, “Marion has big- ger feet.” Lori added, “Lisa and I dif- fer mostly in physical features. But having a twin is great! I wouldn’t trade her for anyone else in the world.” When asked if any of them had ever been unhappy having a twin, the response was “No” from every- one. The best way to say it is in Sharon’s words, ‘“‘She’s the best!” e eager? a HEYLLA ds EQ ggare a. . = 5g 2 SRA Doubles anyone? Both Irene and Marion Thurner play tennis on the CHS girls’ team.

Leading the newest Truckers were Michelle Amory-president, Angie Bordonelli- vice president, Julia Babbit-secre- tary, and Rhonda McDonald- treasurer. Mrs. L. Lassiter proved to be a helpful and eager sponsor for the freshmen, but modestly claims that she had little to do with the en- thusiasm the officers inspired in the class. Mrs. Lassiter commented, “The class is a close-knit gropu of kids with few discipline problems. However, they could be more com- petitive, for the first fund-raising project didn’t roll around until mid- February. Only about 40% of the freshmen participated in the Design- er Series collection project.” Besides selling placemats, the freshmen wished to have a spring dance, somewhat like a freshman- sophomore prom. Class president Michell Amory commented, “I am in favor of a prom only if it proves to be profitable and or would be in the in- terest of the students.” Michelle adds, “As far as strength goes, we (the class and our officers) have the ability to accomplish many things that would be profitable to our school and our class.

But, ironically, it’s the reason we’re here in the first place. Academics is formal training, and therefore a type of learning. But this learning doesn’t come from a text- book only. The classroom situation itself is a learning experience. We continually enrich ourselves through academic situations by in- creasing our knowledge and striving forward. Through academics, we, as students, are Making Tracks. _ Sssh. The library provides a quiet place to study and Joe Ramsey, first period Library Aide, takes advantage of this solitude.

King’s English class will be the first stu- dents in three years not to experience the nine-weeks mini-courses. 92 English Psychology ONE STEP AT A TIME English Psychology Two main points. In “psych” class, Mr. A. Mancuso explains the difference between personality traits and personality types. For those just entering Church- land for the first time, English was probably no different from what they had been used to. But to those who have attended Churchland be- fore, it was quite a change. The course changed from four nine-week mini-courses with the option to choose one’s own class and teacher to the standard one year - one teach- er system. Many students and teachers ex- pressed their objections to one or the other system. Mr. Audet explained the reason for reverting to the stan- dard system in very simple terms. First of all, there is too much extra work involved for the teachers. The nine-week system required the teachers to prepare for five different classes every nine weeks. Also, there is a definite lack of money which is needed to buy all the extra books. Another argument against the nine-week system was that it re- sulted in instability among the stu- dents because just as they would get used to one subject, they would have to switch courses and start some- thing new with a different teacher. Excitement. Once again, Mrs. C. Hawks has outdone herself in senior English as the stu- dents are on the edge of their seats with inter- est and anticipation. ag’ WSucKer ge weg The standard system is an attempt to meet the needs of the students. It is an attempt to correct the prob- lems of the nine-week system and move ahead progressively, starting from the freshman year to the senior year, taking one step at a time as one learns and grows. Psychology, like English, at- tempts to move one step at a time according to Mr. Mancuso. “I try to create an atmosphere in which stu- dents are willing to discuss things openly; however, one doesn’t want an unstructured enrichment- there must be direction.” Mr. Mancuso says that the purpose of psychology is to “give students an understanding of a subject that tries to understand human behavior a lit- tle more scientifically.” Mr. Man- cuso believes that “one must crawl before he walks,” so in psychology he aims at teaching the basics so that hopefully when in college, a student can supplement the ideas he learned in high school. In the study of psychology, the students take advantage of a variety of sources. Mr. Mancuso’s knowl- edge of the subject, along with the good relationship he has with the entire class, makes this one of the most enjoyable and worthwhile electives offered at Churchland.

Cavender, is a newly organized class that teaches senior guys and girls how to cook and do housework. The class is a combination of two other classes: a course known as Bachelor Living, which was taught to instruct the guys how to cope with the hassles which arise from living as a bachelor; and the class for senior girls, Family Living. The students in this class held a mock wedding, which gave them an idea of what wedding preparations involved, and the responsibilities of married life. Two couples were “married,” and afterwards a recep- tion was held in their honor. Also on the agenda for the Family Living class was a lecture by the AFS students on their native foods. Johnny Gonzalez, a student from Ecuador, explained that nearly ev- ery meal in his country consisted of beef or seafood, rice or corn, and po- tatoes or plantain (a large tropical plant resembling the banana and bearing similar fruit). Much of Ecua- dor’s food is spiced with “‘aji’’ (hot sauce). Coca-cola, Pepsi, and beer are the favorite drinks in Ecuador, while whiskey and tequilla are the favorite liquors. The students in the Family Living class mainly learn the basics of adult life, including everything from sew- ing a seam to decorating an apart- ment. Family Living 95 a I love you!

All of the Latin classes, Latin I to Latin V, are taught by Mr. Robert Moore. Latin I classes are only given to 8th graders at Churchland Junior High School during fifth and sixth periods. For this reason, Mr. Moore has to travel to the Junior High everyday during his lunch time. The rest of the day he teaches at the High School. Latin II and Latin III classes study Latin grammar and language struc- ture, The Labors of Hercules, and a shortened version of the Aeneid. In Latin IV, students read the Aeneid in its original, unedited form. The few students who take Latin V study medieval Latin and also have a chance to teach the lower Latin classes. Latin is an important language not only because much of our English vocabulary is derived from Latin, but also because our sentence struc- ture and grammar are closely relat- ed to Latin. It provides a marvelous background for word comprehen- sion. The Latin students not only study the Latin language, but also observe many of the customs and holidays of the ancient Romans. Around Christ- mas time, the Roman holiday Satur- nalia is celebrated. On April 21, 753 B.C. Rome was founded and each year the Latin scholars hold celebra- tions and games in honor of this aus- picious occasion. Dominus Major always makes Lat- in fun. The students sing “Happy Birthday” and Christmas songs in Latin, and play rota (a Roman game) and ghost, in Latin of course.

The department offered the fol- lowing courses: government, U.S. history, world history, world geog- raphy, sociology, and economics. Students are required to take either world geography or world history in either their freshman or sophomore year. World georgaphy follows the theme of “Man and His World” and deals with the earth’s resources and man’s adaptation to his environ- ment. World history deals with “Man and His Past” and delves into what has happened and why it did. The department’s task is to aid the development of informed, objective thinking people, ready to interact in a democratic society. The teachers of the department also try to instill into their pupils a spirit of adventure and curiosity backed by a love of learning.

Classes offered are gener- al business, typing, shorthand, ac- counting, business law, stenogra- phy, and clerk typist. Word processing and data pro- cessing will be incorporated to a greater degree next year in the ste- nography and clerk typist classes.

JV'S FINISH THIRD Concluding the season with a final record of four wins and two losses, the Baby Truckers captured third place in the Southeastern District. Coaches Ronnie Lawson and Frank Roberson were satisfied with the re- sults, due to the fact that no repeat- ing veterans from last year were on the squad. Offensively, the team was led by sophomore Trey. Hicks. Hicks’ abili- ty at the always-threatening quar- terback position aided his team to numerous victories. Tom Wiggins and Francisco Hardy also were cited as key offensive standouts. Coach Lawson was pleased with the overall performance of the de- fensive squad. Sophomores Steve Roberts and Chris Mounie exhibited their athletic talents by being named as key players on the defense by Coach Lawson. The team also had thirteen men pulled to the varsi- ty squad with three weeks remain- ing in the season. The season’s only losses were ob- tained from undefeated Wilson, and Deep Creek. Wins were secured over Manor, Cradock, Norcom, and Indian River. Moving up! Chris Ryder, Chris Mounie, Marc Kersey, Richard Woody, and Chris Durham were some of the JV team members who were pulled to the varsity squad to gain ex- perience. “I don’t believe it!”” Coaches Lawson and Ro- berson seem amazed at the action on the field.

They must endure long, exhausting physical as well as mental workouts, pushing their bodies to sometimes impossible limits.

The team is coached by Mr. Bruce Harrison. Mr. Harrison, who stress- es mental concentration and devel- opment of physical strength, ex- pressed some disappointment with the low number of students trying out for the team. The team practiced six days a week for two hours, for two months, before the first game of the new season. The 1981 team cap- tains were Bobby LeDoyen and Tony Mault.

To most sophomores who have already survived through one year, it is somewhat of a pain. “We gotta have it, but I don’t like it-especially gymnastics,’ commented sopho- more class president Eddie Woody. For most sophomores, however, the “big thrill” of gym class is taking driver’s education, which involves both classroom instruction and be- hind the wheel training. Coach R. Parker and Mrs. J.

If you don’t like these sports, then you must like skiing, as most people do. There are many ski resorts but Kendra Davis prefers Wintergreen and Snowshoe. One time when Ken- dra was teaching Andy Dail Bridget Hurley to ski, Andy skied up on her ski as they were going to get on the ski lift. No one had noticed until Kendra jumped up first to get on the lift and fell on her head. If you think snow skiing is too dangerous, then you could try water skiing with Susan Wiggins. The only dangerous thing that might happen is you might get hit with the ski or you might drown. You could also try surfing at Nagshead with Greg Wilson, which many guys like to do. Most of these water sports can be done at Virginia Beach, but Chris Cason used to scuba dive off the coast of Puerto Rico. You could try boating or sailing at Nagshead with Russell Warren. And while doing that, take your fishing rod and catch a few big fish. For these types of sports you need to know how to swim and the best person to talk to about that is Jenny Steinberg, who swims with the ODU Aquatic Club. Most people do at least one of these types of sports. If you don’t you should start or at least try. It might be fun! Vroooom! Tod Carson races motorcycles pro- fessionally.

Being a cheerleader may be glam- orous and a real honor, but it is a lot of hard work as well. All girls wish- ing to become cheerleaders must practice for two weeks before tryouts. Each girl is evaluated on spirit and enthusiasm; ability to per- form cheers, jumps, and mounts; neatness form cheers, jumps, and mounts; neatness and appearance; and personality. Each candidate must perform three cheers; two with a group of five, and one alone. Mrs. Hawks, cheerleading sponsor, chooses the six judges and tallies the scores. Fifteen girls are pinned the following day by the graduating senior cheerleaders. In order to buy new uniforms, the cheerleaders sold candy, coupon books, and stationery. Most importantly, the cheer- leaders keep school spirit high. But, they also make signs for games, bake food for players, make pep tags, and decorate the locker room before football games. Practice commenced August 10 and continued until the start of school. Varsity captain Anne Goldman summed up her feelings about her last year as a cheerleader: “It’s sort of sad to think that I won’t ever be cheering again. Although there was a lot of responsibility involved, espe- cially being captain, I had a great time. Being a cheerleader sure made my high school days interesting and go by quickly because I was always busy with some kind of cheering ac- tivity.” Varsity JV Cheerleaders 133 Clas me Happy times.

The theme of his speech centered on a line from Robert Frost’s “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening.” It reads, “And miles to go before I sleep.” After the ceremony, a reception organized by Mrs. Neal Davis was held on the front lawn.

The culmination of twelve long, ardous years of work. At times it seemed like graduation day would never come. But once it was here, and we all lined up on the track, there was that special, hard- to-describe feeling of “‘this is it.” While waiting for the commence- ment exercises to begin, conversa- tion centered on gown lengths and “Move it over just a little.” Susan Boyer, class treasurer, adjusts the tassle on class vice president Jeannie Collins’ cap. | J vation e Graduation ¢ Graduation ¢ Graduation ¢ Graduation ° Graduatic caps. The guys offered each other help and advice on how to keep their caps on, and the girls used hundred of bobby pins to hold theirs on.

All you had to do was to look at some- one, and both pairs of eyes said more than any words could ever say. As the speakers talked, we each reflected on our own _ treasured memories. We all smiled, and held back the tears. But when Mr. Mor- gan announced the presence of Mrs. Wheeler, our counselor, who just days before had undergone heart surgery, the whole senior class im- mediately jumped to its feet in honor of her, and the tears started trick- ling down the faces of many. Mrs. Wheeler was the one who listened to us, helped us, and guided us to- ward finding a direction for our lives. She also worked hard to help the class raise the money it needed for graduation when she had so many things of her own to do. We all hope she knows how much we love and appreciate her. The special moment for every in- dividual, though, was receiving that diploma. After it was handed to you, and you shook Mr. Morgan’s hand, you walked back to your seat and read it, carefully scrutinizing every word and feeling that sensational pride when you saw your name on it. After everyone had received their diplomas, there was one item left on the agenda. Several people com- mented, “This is it - I’m going to cry.” The Class of ’81 stood up, turned to face the audience, and sang the alma mater for the last time. If ever a song was sung with love, this was it. Then cheers rose up as caps were thrown into the air and the seniors - now the graduates - hugged each other. The processional march out seemed quicker than the march in, and at the end of the track the graduates amassed, hugging, con- gratulating, and crying. We've been through a lot togeth- er, and each of us has had good times and bad times. But somehow, we'll always remain close. After all, we’re the CLASS OF ’81!! ORGANIZATIONS Rhtnmic movement.

They are what we belong to, believe in, and work for. Many of the best memories from school are our club activities. But the best thing about organiza- tions is that they bring all kinds of people together under one cause. With each person bringing in his own ideas and resources, the club’s product, whether it be a perfor- mance or a newspaper, is greatly en- hanced. Organizations accomplish things for the good of the school and the community. And it is the students who bring this good. Through orga- nizations, we are Making Tracks. Inter ested listeners.

The Student Cooperative Associ- ation (SCA) underwent several changes. Claiming his SCA to be big- ger and better, president Keith Myers stated, “The attendance at the general meetings was greatly in- creased over last year. Now the SCA is run not by just one group, but by the student body itself.” Several new projects were added to the list of fund-raisers the SCA annually employs. Wendy Beazley almost single-handedly planned and handled bake sales which were viewed by the students as a “‘pleas- ant change of taste.” The creation of “Jamfest” was the other newcomer. This large concert given in the gym featured eight local bands playing in succession. Jamfest netted the SCA nearly $500. To the usual array of dances, food drives, Student Leadership Day, and activity period, the SCA added a new school-wide activity, National Energy Education Day. Observed on March 26, the day involved energy conservation methods being put to use: cafeteria bag lunches, a music- free lunchroom, and darkened class- rooms. Concerning the year, Mrs. Duke remarked, “I am proud of the good job that everyone has done this year. We were very successful.” Mrs. Brown was especially proud that the SCA was able to award two $400 scholarships to seniors Sandy Dar- ley and Mary St. George. SCA Marshals 141 The Villagers.

Buckley, who has been directing the choruses for sev- en years. | Youdon’t have to bea magnificent Singer to be accepted in chorus, you just have to be able to and like to sing! There are four type of choruses _you can be in. The Glee Club, a sec- ond period class, is mainly for fresh- � men. The Mixed Chorus (third peri- od) has sophomores, juniors, and seniors and participates in many programs. The Girls Ensemble (fifth period) consists of sophomore, ju- nior, and senior girls. They also give many shows. The Villagers are the most well known chorus group. Se- lection for the Villagers is based on the student’s ability to sing and dance well. All the choruses give at least three performances a school year: the Christmas Concert, the musical production with the drama club, and the Spring Concert. The Villagers Mixed Chorus.

BUSY SCHEDULE FOR BAND Mrs. Kevin Tabakin, a newcomer to Churchland, took over the band, which has seen two different direc- tors in the last two years. The band dwindled to just fifty-four members, the majority of whom were under- classmen. Drum majors were seniors David Younkins and Ken Olson. The band’s schedule kept them busy all year. The Marching Band performed at half-time at every Trucker home football game. When football season ended, practice for the Christmas Band and Choral Con- cert began. The Band practiced about six weeks in preparation for 144 Band this concert. The Regional Festival was next on the Band’s agenda. Four pieces were prepared for this annual event in which each of the bands from the region is judged individually. Cra- dock High School hosted the Festi- val. After this Festival came the Stage Band’s annual Jazz Concert on April 10. The Stage Band also per- formed at several PTA meetings throughout the year. The final con- cert of the year, the Spring Concert, was on May 8. Aside from these activities, the Band also found time to march in three parades: the Homecoming Pa- rade, the Christmas Parade at Tower Mall, and the Portsmouth Memorial Day Parade in downtown Portsmouth. Senior band member Bobby Knox commented, “The Band didn’t per- | } form as well as had been hoped be- | cause of a lack of support.” Howev- er, Bobby expressed hopes for a more successful year next year be- cause many talented students will be coming here from Churchland Ju- nior High.

The Drama Club is one of the school’s largest, with over a hun- dred members. To become a mem- ber, a person has to try out or work backstage. By working a certain amount of hours, a person receives a Thespian point. If a person earns ten points, he becomes a member of Thespian Troupe 598. Honor Thes- pians have earned sixty points.

The musical Hello, Dolly! was considered the hit if the season. Said Micah Yarbrough, who played the part of Barnaby Tucker, “I considered Hello, Dol- ly! a great success!” A few people during the preparation for the play thought it might be a flop. “I thought it wasn’t going to be ready by the end of January, but when we started practicing with music and the Chorus joined, everything fell right into place,” said Micah. The performance was standing room only the last two nights. Sandy Darley as Dolly Levi gave a stunnung performance re- vealing true stage presence and a flawless technique.

CULTURAL HXCHANGES AFS is an organization based on exchanging cultural experiences on the national and international levels. Club members learn about different lifestyles through ex- change students and exchange programs. The local AF'S chapter includes the clubs of both Church- land High School and Western Branch High School, and the adult chapter of this area. The Churchland AF'S club meets dur- ing Activity Period, and extra meetings are scheduled after school for planning fund-raising activities and pot-luck dinners. There are two major fund-rais- ing activities during the school year. One is the fund drive held in November. The second is the sub- marine sale in February. The money raised from these projects is used to finance the foreign ex- change students who come to the chapter. The students who participate in these activities and come to all the meetings receive points which give them priority over students who do not participate in these activities. The students who received points get a chance to take a trip on a short-term ex- change and live in the manner of their hosts for about a week. This year we have two ex- change students. Johnny Gonza- lez is from Ecuador, and Ralph Ri- chenbach is from Switzerland. Also pursuing the study of for- eign culture is the French Club. The Club is composed of current French students and _ students who have taken French in the past, and is sponsored by Mr. W. Gatling. During the Activity Period meetings, members learn more of the French language, culture, and customs. Also, French songs are sung, and the famed “bango”’ (bingo) is especially enjoyed. Two customary events held ev- ery are the Christmas party and the French banquet, held at the Coleman Room during Ap ril.

RORIGS SEES CHANGES Sponsoring the Trucker Topics for her fourth year was Mrs. C. Hawks. She worked with editors Debbie Su- pinski and Janice Hicks, and manag- ing editor Trey Resolute. Debbie was editor of the first three issues, but then the class was split and ten students went to work with Debbie on the yearbook. Janice took over as editor of the remaining issues. Changes were made in the news- paper to give it a more “profession- al” look. The paper itself consisted of eight 8” x 1” pages, instead of the six 11” x 17” pages as used in the past. Seven issues were produced in- stead of the usual five, and there were more ads. Also, the last wills and testaments and senior superla- tives issues were expanded. Each year the Trucker Topics par- ticipates in evaluation by the Virgin- ia High School League. The League rates the newspaper by critiquing three successive issues. “Last year we placed third and we hope to improve enough to place first this year,’ commented Mrs. Hawks. Mrs. Hawks also added, ‘‘Editors Debbie and Janice and page editors Anne Goldman, Kevin Collins, De- bra Reid, Lisa Godley, and Kathy Burton strived to provide faster, ac- curate, and more interesting cover- age of school news at a price the stu- dents could afford. Put it here. Tracy Howell plans out a page of the paper as Melissa Butler, Shelly Cruze, and Sherri Calhoun watch. Careful work. Kim Levy works on making and setting headlines for the paper.

The Future Busi- ‘iness Leaders of America (FBLA), )isponsored by Mrs. Pierce, Mrs. Jones, and Mrs. Madden, is a club which discusses the “‘latest”’ in office business skills. Members also have the opportunity to compete in such categories as stenography, account- ing, typing, poster drawing, business law, and public speaking. “Competi- tion is held at the district, regional, _;state, and national levels,” explains '| FBLA president Cindi Baucom. “All H | categories are most difficult, but are _ rewarding to compete in.” Posters, | calendars, ' and candy were sold to raise money i} if | Christmas ornaments, for these competitions. One highlight of the FBLA year was the Christmas breakfast for members, held at Shoney’s. The club also held an awards assembly during an activity period to present prizes to winners of this year’s in- school FBLA competition. Many students who participated in the competition were also members of the Cooperative Office Education Club (COE). These business students attended classes in the morning and worked in various business offices in the afternoon. Another vocational-oriented club is The Future Homemakers of America (FHA) “Our goal is to help youth assume their roles in society through home economics in areas of personal growth, family life, voca- tional preparation, and community - SEP BO, RAL A RS : FBLA.

Two stu- dents held an office int he Ports- mouth Federation of FHA. Laurie Fulton was historian of the Feder- ation, and Tricia Campbell was named chaplin. The group took part in a fall workshop, Spring Rally, and skating parties, as well Teacher Ap- preciation Day. On this day, mem- bers delivered cupcakes, baked by the group, to the faculty.

Originally the members were the “society girls” who gained the reputation of being in an elite type of sorority. The goal of the Pierette Club today is to join together a group of girls who are willing to put forth a little extra effort at being “nice.” Hach year fifteen junior girls are chosen by the Pierette Club, who in turn choose more of their peers dur- ing the beginning of their senior year. The first school day of every month is sacred to the club mem- bers. On this day, each member must wear a dress. This simply re- presents the traditional dress code of all girls attending school. Also on this day, every teacher in the school is given a cupcake by the Pierette Club. In this respect, the Pierette Club exists to keep alive the old standards (often Southern) tradi- tions of the school system. As the years go by, the standard of dress in most public schools goes down, and the teacher-student relationship does not thrive as before. The Pier- ette Club, however, tries to hang on to a few old customs. Club officers are: Susan Wiggins- president, Ellen Sutton-vice prei- dent, Beth Brown-secretary, and Barbara Joseph-treasurer. ™ . x sa ; Cupcake cutie.

The group began in 1977, and senior Kathy Burton is the only original member. The purpose of the group is “to develop poise and and increase self-esteem through per- forming creative dances.” The group held try-outs in the ear- ly part of October. Practices lasted 1% hours for an average of two days a week. When competition or a per- formance was pending, practices were expanded to four days a week. “T don’t think I’ll ever forget prac- ticing until I could hardly walk the next day. But I couldn’t forget feel- ing good because I knew the steps,” states Kathy Burton. The group presented an assembly in February and in April participat- ed in the Annual Modern Dance F'es- tival at Norfolk State University. One of the new projects was to pro- vide entertainment for early ar- rivers nefore the Churchland-Indian River basketball game. Also aiming toward creative suc- cess is the Art Club. In art classes, taught by Mrs. C. Jones, ten differ- ent art forms are offered: drawing, painting, graphics, ceramics, crafts, commercial design, basic design, sculpture, architecture, and commu- nications. Art Club members partici- pate in many outside activities and contests, including the Sea Wall Art Show. “Qualification for membership in the Art Club is based on the interest of the student,” said Mrs. Jones. “A student does not have to be enrolled in an art class to become a member. But, the student must show some concern or potential for the use of art as a means of improving lifes- tyles.” Art Club Modern Dance Group 163 ACHIEVING SUCCESS “Up, up, and away! .. . into the wild, blue yonder!” The National Honor Society serves as the launch- ing pad as the 57 members stand ready to tackle the pressures of school and leap into their futures with courage, zeal, and knowledge.

Editor Debbie Supinski rests on the steps during a day of taking club pictures. “Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make your- self do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not. This is the first lesson to be learned.” -T. Huxley Yearbook Staff 185 STRIVING FOR OUR GOALS School always leaves many memories with us. And although we sometimes consider our high school years the end of our education, the are really only the beginning of our life. High school has prepared us to face the world with confidence; stu- dent life, people, academics, sports, and business have all.been impor- tant parts of this preparation. Because of all these influ ences and experiences, we have gained the ability to imagine, strive for, and achieve our goals. So, wherever we go, whatever we do, we will be Mak- ing Tracks. “It’s great!” Stanley Bottoms models his “‘in style” OP shirt. Sophomore pride.
