As these same students entered these hallowed halls, we saw old and new friends, familiar and not so famil- iar faces. One of those familiar faces belonged to Mr. Sam Wolfenbarger, our principal. Entering his eleventh year at CFHS, Mr. Wollenbarger spent much of his time working with the students. A man deeply concerned about the welfare of his faculty and stu- dents, he continued throughout the year to work for the betterment of Clifton Forge High School. 10 Administration The Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Charles E.

Reflections . . . . . , of sports il CJ Listen carefully, boys. Who said we ' re number 12?!! As the Clifton Forge Mountaineers entered their first season in Group 1 B, they were ranked number 12 out of 14 teams. This ranking showed that the Mountaineers weren ' t e.xpected to do well in the Blue Ridge District. However, as the season progressed, “Big Green ' s” record clearly showed that the Mounties could not only compete in higher classification but win. And win they did! The season began with a 30-26 upset over Liberty High School. There were other upsets such as the Liberty game for the Mountaineers were underdogs in almost every game they played. Without a doubt, the most out- standing game of the season was the spectacular triumph over the Alleghany Colts in which the Mounties led all the way through the game and finally prevailed with a score of 1 2-8. 52 MOUNTIES DOWELL The Mounties lost only 3 games all season, and those losses were heartbreakers, especially the 18-8 loss to Covington. Although the team played well, they made far too many mistakes which resulted in the losses. What could be the success secret of a team who was supposed to lose almost every game they played and then turned out a record of 7 wins and 3 losses? The secret of the Team ' s success is found in the excellent leadership of the seniors and the total effort made by the coaches and each player. John Reynolds and John Hutchison, team co-captains, provided superior leadership for the team. For his exceptional performances during the entire season, John Reynolds received the honor of being named to the All-State, honorable mention team as well as being named to the All-Area and All-District teams. David Hickenbotham, who led the District scoring with 1 14 points, was also named to both the All-Area and All-District teams. Other players named to these teams were: John Hutchison, Raymond Megginson, John Morris, and Gary Bowen. The mighty Mountaineers were coached by Mr. Ed Scott and Mr. Dick Janos whose skill and guidance were superior. 53 HAVE 7-3 RECORD First row left to right: Doug Singleton, Raymond Megginson, Terry Green, John Reynolds, John Hutchison, John Sanders, Greg Crowder, ■lerry Green, John Morris.

Although the inexperienced Junior Varsity Squad gave very few signs of foot- ball strategy the first half of the season, they did show great improvement in the latter half of the season. The team was mainly composed of freshmen who led the team during the sea- son with a great deal of energy and spirit. The highlight of the season was the 20-0 victory over the James River Knights. The Alleghany game, near the end of the sea- son, was also a show of fine effort by the squad. The junior Mounties fought their larger and more experienced opponent to a standstill in the first half only to lose after a hard fought contest. Get out of the way coach! cries one of the J.V. football players during practice. While short on personnel, the young team members should improve with experience and contribute a great deal to the team next year. The Junior Varsity Squad was coached by Mr. Bill Perry and Mr. Ed Van Lear. .A J.V. player gains valuable yardage in a game against Covington. 55 CFHS Maid of Honor Darlene Humphries Freshman Attendant Pat Do«d HOMKC OMING Ql EEN Karen I. nn Pullen Beauties Reign During Homecoming Boy, what a king wouldn ' t pay to have a harem like this year’s Homecoming Court!! Each member of the Court has one thing in common with all the others — beauty. Of course, each one possesses other qualities, too, such as talent, poise, and personality. These are just a few of the reasons why these girls were selected to the Homecoming Court. The Homecoming Court is chosen by the entire student body and the winners are an- nounced in the pep rally before the big game. During halftime the queen and her court were crowned and they reigned over the parade, the game, and the dance that followed. Melanie White was chosen to be the attendant from the eighth grade class. Melanie sings in the Junior Choir of the Main Street Baptist Church, is a color guard in the band, and is a Girl Scout. The student body chose Pat Dowdy as the Freshman Attendant.

On October 10, the chain of events began with the Homecoming Parade. The Sophomore Class rated first prize with their float “Mow ’Em Down Moun- ties.” The second honor went to the Freshman Class float, “Mounties Make Headlines.” The third prize was taken by the Junior Class float, “Knights are no Cause for Alarm.” Next the Mountaineers and fans journeyed to Memorial Park wh ere the mighty Mountaineers met the James River Knights in the tradi- tional Homecoming game. The Mounties, struggling for victory, outshined the Knights by a score of 39-20. Closing out the activities of the day was the Home- coming Dance sponsored by the Sophomore Class. Walking into a moon- shiner’s hideaway on a moonlit night and dancing around an old still in the center of the floor, couples were now in the land of “Moonshinin’ Mounties.” Music was provided by the “Stonehenge” of Covington. 58 Mountaineers First row; David Deaton, Jonathan Valenzuela, and Mac Beard. James Thomas, Doug Finestone, Terry Green, Kenny Myers, David Deish- er, John Dotson, Walter Worth, Nate Sledd, William Brown, John Reynolds, Joey Johnson, and Coach Stine. 59 Show Much Wonder how he holds that ball in his hand like that? What’s he pointing at? Even though the basketball record was not as good as in previous years, the team played exciting games that pleased the fans. The most thrilling win was the 74-60 win over the Alleghany Colts who had beaten the Mountaineers by forty points in their first encounter. The most disappointing moment was in the one point loss to Covington in the last seconds of the game. Four Senior lettermen will be remembered for outstanding play and leadership: John Dotson, John Reynolds, Terry Green, and Mickey Sarig. John Dotson received special recognition by being named to the All-Area First. Left: Senior members, Terry Green, John Dotson, and John Reynolds. 60 Spirit Left: Make it look good.

Standing from left to right: C. W. Linkswiller, Chip Woodyard, David Ralston, Gary Bowen, Mickey Duff, Bobby Ratliff, Mike Nicely, and David Bradley. Experience is valuable to every ball player. The nine players on the small J.V. Basketball team saw action during every game. Everyone on the team had an outstanding game at one time or another. The team finished the season with a 3-15 record. Although the won-lost record was not good, many of the fifteen games lost were very exciting. Ten of the fifteen losses were by an average of only four points. From the standpoint of experience, improvement, and preparation for the varsity team. Coach Bill Perry felt that the season could have been called successful. Stanley Goode shoots one against Addison. C. W. Linkswiler shoots for two. Eighth Grade Wins! Left to right: Coach Terry Miller, Eddie Pullen, David Jeffries, Chappy Morris, Leonard Wallace, Gilbert Davis, Buster Hayslett, Mark Nichols, Clay Morris, Grady Haynes, and Rodney Unroe. Mr. Miller’s eighth grade basketball team had another successful season in 1969-1970. Following last year’s 1 1-1 season, the eighth grade Mountaineers again compiled an 11-1 record. The only loss this year came at the hands of Covington 31-30. Co-captains, Leonard Wallace and Gilbert Davis led the team in scoring, but without a complete team effort the season would not have been a success. Also worthy of special mention are starters Grady Haynes, Chappy Morris, and Eddie Pullen. “Quit ticklin’ me!” says Gilbert Davis. The Mountaineer players get ready for the rebound. Varsity Cheerleaders The Varsity Cheerleaders: Donna Coffman, Paula Craft, Karen Pullen, Donna Mays, Helen Claire Carter, Becky Miller, Edith Vermilya, Susan Stinespring, and Medina Mansfield. 64 Make Us Proud Head cheerleader, Karen Pullen and Assistant Head, Donna Mays. “We’ve got spirit, hey! We’ve got spirit, hey!” This was the morning cry of the varsity cheerleaders as they did their warm-up exercises at Camp Farrar, the cheerleading camp, at Virginia Beach during the summer of 1969. Here the girls spent a week comparing their cheers with those of other schools and learning new ones to bring home and share with the student body. In squad competition with other schools, C.F.H.S. Varsity cheerleaders claimed four ribbons rated from hon- orable mention to superior and a spirit stick. Back home these popular young ladies proved their ability to arouse school spirit, reigned over pep rallies, and sent the teams on to victory. In between cheering events they had bake sales and a pop bottle drive to raise money for their treasury. From the beginning of practice sessions in the summer straight through to the last basketball game in the winter adds up to more than eight delightful fun-packed months of preparation and demonstrations. The Varsity cheerleaders make us more proud of our school and, in turn, we are proud of our cheerleaders. Medina gives her O. K. 65 J.V.’s Practice Hard Regina Burger, Cindy Anderson, Tuck Crabill, Terri Woodyard, Pat Dowdy, Dreama Clark, Janice Stinnett, Sue Roalf, and Kim Mays. “Go, Mounties!” . . . This was a familiar cry heard from the J.V. Cheerleaders as they prepared for the coming football and basketball seasons. The squad consisted of nine, eighth and ninth grade girls who devoted a lot of time and effort in order to make the year a success. The cheerleaders had several fund-raising projects, including several bake sales. They also participated in the Homecoming and Shrine Pa- rades.

In spite of attending only two meets, the Girls’ Track Team turned in an outstanding record for 1970. This year, the girls attended two meets, one at Franklin County and the Re- gional at Patrick Henry High. In the Junior Division of the Regionals, things began to look very bright for CFHS when Sal- lie Tucker rushed across the finish line to take first place in the 440 yard run. First place in the high jump contest was taken by another outstanding member, Carol Van Lear. The Senior Division also walked away with two medals. Flying across the finish line, Nancy Rankin rushed in to match third place for the fifty yard dash and seventy yard hurdles. Brenda Deaton took third place for the 220 yard run. 67 Baseball Billy Gibson, Gary Bowen, C. W.

Hold up!” yells Coach Stine. 68 Team Has Surprising Season The C.F.H.S. baseball team that was predicted to be at the bottom of the district standings surprised themselves, Coach Robert Stine, the student body, and area fans as well as their competitors in the game. They finished the season play with a record of 9-9 and won a chance to participate in the playoffs. While many games were very exciting for the spectators, the ones that will long be remembered were the 3-2 win over Coving- ton and David Bradley’s no hit, 2-0 win over Covington. John Reynolds and Terry Green, co-captains of the team, were joined by two other seniors, John Hutchinson and Ray- mond Megginson. Underclassmen earning letters were Dale Crutchfield, Jimmy Saunders, Chip Woodyard, David Bradley, C. W. Linkswiler, and Gary Bowen. These players will be Joined next year by eight other returning players. Things look really good for a successful baseball season in 1971! What’s he doing? Dancing the limbo?

Below: Now listen, I told you I was going to quit if you started getting rough.” A small number of boys turned out for wrestling, but those boys who did had a very successful season. There were wrestlers in only eight of the twelve weight classes; therefore, twenty points were forfeited to each team wrestled. The boys were un- able to win any team matches and had a 0-10 record, but they were able to defeat five teams through the eight classes they wrestled. Ten boys did an outstanding job and lettered; the other seven on the team performed well. Raymond Megginson was the captain and Ed Scott was the coach. There were three key wrest- lers on the squad. Raymond Megginson, 155 pound class, had sixteen wins and five losses. He placed second in the Blue Ridge District com- posed of eight teams, first in the Central Regional Tour- nament composed of sixteen teams, and second in the State Unclassified Tourna- ment composed of thirty-nine ' teams. Raymond lost the finals in a close 4-3 match. Steve Albright, a sopho- more, in the 107 class, had fourteen wins and seven losses. He placed third in both the Blue Ridge District and Central Regional Tour- nament and fourth in the State. Jim Ballou, a fresh- man, had twelve wins, five losses, and two ties. He placed third in both the Blue Ridge District and the Cen- tral Regional Tournament. The team finished thir- teenth in the State Unclassi- fied Tournament out of thirty-nine teams competing. 71 Reflections . , . . . , of called meetings and minutes and deadlines and programs ... of plans and conferences and trips. ... of bake sates and pop bottle drives and selling Rex and car washes. . . . of point systems and sponsors and assemblies and floats ... of fun and a lot of work Reflections . . . ... of activities. 73 Annual Staff Reflects Seated: Mrs. Morris, Mike Carter, Sue Topping, Susan Hogg, Jean McMullan, Sally Scruggs, Carolyn Hall, Stephie Nicastro, Buddy Kirts, and Jim Ballou.

Janice is working hard to finish that layout. A great deal of time was spent by the business, layout, and copy staffs in filling this annual with the memories of another school year. The photography staff added to these memories with their captivation of events and emotions in pictures. Each member of the staff worked hard and diligently in order to produce a yearbook which not only the staff could be proud of but also the entire student body. The staff sold doughnuts and stadium seats during football season and it operated the concession stand during the home basketball games. Working just as hard if not harder as the staff was the sponsor, Mrs. Morris. Her aid and guidance contri- buted a great deal not only to the staff but to the annual itself. Those doughnuts are pretty good even if we did make them. 75 Betas’ Have Active Year Below: Stephie Nicastro, President; Susan Hogg, Vice President; Mrs. Adlis; Bonnie Snead, Sec.; .lean McMullan, Treas. Students in the junior and senior classes who meet the scholarship, leadership, and character require- ments are invited to be members of the National Beta Club. An averag ' of ninety is required for ad- mission; it is essential to maintain an average of eighty-eight to remain in good standing. The Beta Club sponsored our school’s participa- tion on the quiz programs, “Who Knows?” and “Klassroom Kwiz.” Beta members of the senior class were contestants. Several members had a rewarding weekend, March 13-14, 1970, when they attended the State Convention of the National Beta Clubs at Hotel Roanoke. This trip was made possible by a fund- raising project in which everyone participated and through arrangements made by the sponsor, Mrs. Audrey Adlis. 76 Services Performed by Jr. Tri-Hi- Y The Junior Tri-Hi-Y is a very devoted and self-rewarding organization. Our Jr. Tri-Hi-Y performs many services throughout the home, school, and community. This year one of their school projects was a Thanks- giving assembly. They also gave a Thanksgiving basket to a family in our community. Another service of the Jr. Tri-Hi-Y was sponsoring a drive for jewelry, pocketbooks, and billfolds for the Lynchburg Training Center. As in past years, candy was again sold by the club. Two officers, Christie Connor and Susan Carpenter, attended the Officer’s Training Conference at Massa- netta. All of the officers attended the Officer’s Training Workshop at Covington High School. The club sent twenty members to the District Conference at Albemarle High School. The main goal of the Jr. Tri-Hi-Y is to perform many beneficial services throughout the home, school and community.

They collected for the Heart Fund, prepared baskets of food for a needy family, and attended church services as a group. Many members attended the District meeting, and Susan Hogg and Carolyn Hall represented the club at the Model General Assembly. The Tri-Hi-Y members and officers, under the guidance of Mrs. Jean Clift, will continue to participate in worthy activities and promote Christian ideals. Below: Reflection of Mrs. Clift.

There are many things we could say that would help everyone to understand how we feel; however, we only bought one page. We could mention the floats from the freshman, sophomore, and junior years, but since you already know about them we won’t. Then, we could say a lot of things about our prom but we assumed you would like to forget the 3 A.M. decorating sessions but we figured you would just as soon forget them so we won’t mention that either. For these reasons we really don’t have too much to say. So all our memories and gratitude go into one big THANK YOU! Always yours, THE CLASS OF 1970 121 Like trees, most companies show their age. So how does a growing company keep young? With people. Skilled and trained. Imaginative and motivated. The best people we can get. People who want to make Westvaco the best name in paper. Who want to make Westvaco the best company to do business with. That’s one way to do it. Come to think of it, it’s about the only way. Westvaco 122 Designed Furnished by J.

Thirty-nine years at CFHS — there can be no better source of memories for any- one. June 2, 1970, marked the last day that Miss Mar- garet Van Horn would teach a class at her “dear ole’ Clif- ton High.” On June 5, her former students crowded the auditorium for the annual Class Night exercises. There they honored their former teacher with the presenta- tion of a silver bowl, a list of her former students, and a check for nearly one-thou- sand, four-hundred dollars! We, the annual staff, could think of no better closing than a farewell to Miss Van Horn. We have approached the end of another year; she has ended an era. Reflections of summaries, dictionaries (or a lack of dictionaries). Lit books, assembly lines, sneezes, last minute studying, a former basketball player, measuring for caps and gowns, ordering invitations, and those nicknames that just can’t be printed. ♦ J
