Faculty members at Coastal Academy have traveled widely and experienced many adventures that have helped to shape them into the individuals that they are. Since teaching is a labor of love that requires sharing more than iust knowledge, they give of themselves, of their experiences, and of their worldliness. As adults, they have seen and done many things. This background enables them to convey both advice and wisdom to their students. Although teaching is a talent that fills a large part of their lives, leisure time is important as well. All find pleasure in pursuing personal interests that range from fashion to fishing, as diverse as the people themselves. As pathfinders, our instructors strive to lead us in the right direction, whether it be in education or in life. If Headmaster F. Carroll Taylor could give an introduction as well as a reproduction of places he has been, he would recommend a cruise like the one to Mexico and Haiti with the 1976 senior class. He states his reason as total relaxation: no phones, no teachers, students, or parents, no problems - just the sea and the sun and people to wait on me. When not on a cruise, Mr. Taylor enioys sports, such as playing golf and tennis and attending college football games. At home he is a master chef on the charcoal grill, but his kitchen skills are limited to cooking fried egg sandwiches. At home and abroad and even at school, Mr.fTaylor maintains a calm, fun-loving attitude. He finds pleasure in Coastal Academy, in its students, and in life in general. Mrs. Joyce Moser readily admits that she has had little time for vacations or travel the past few years because raising and educating five children has been a full-time iob. However, it has brought her great satisfaction, and now that the last of her brood are becoming independent, she is finding more leisure time for herself. When she leaves her English and math teaching duties, she enjoys a brisk walk onthe beach. She also looks forward to Friday nights when she can leave both school and kitchen chores behind and unwind with a Big Mac. Mrs. Joy L. Newnam, who ioined the staff this year as secretary and typing instructor, says that the most memorable place she has been is Disney World. She explains, The whole city is so clean and colorful that you feel you're truly in a Fairyland - past, present, and future. Mrs. Newnam is a sailing enthusiast and goes out whenever she can, weather permitting. She also enioys playing bridge and frequently ioins other faculty members for a game. 20 Coastal Academy librarian Mrs. Peggy Bellamy loves to visit Palm Beach, Florida, any time of the year, but especially in the winter when the weather is bad in Myrtle Beach. Her sister lives there, and Mrs. Bellamy finds it a most relaxing place to go. For the tourist, there is a great deal to do and see. Mrs. Bellamy is a very family- oriented person who enioys spending time with her husband and daughter. She shares her own love of books by reading to Ann at bedtime and also finds pleasure in cooking for her family Cookies and other sweets are her specialty. Dr. Henry C. Evans is director of college admissions and teacher of Western Civilizations. Even though he instructs mainly about ancient foreign cultures, he felt a need to see more of his own country. So last summer he and Mrs. Evans set out in a V.W. camper on an 8,600 mile trip to the Rockies. They crossed the Continental Divide twelve times from Colorado Springs to the Columbian Ice Fields in Alberta, Canada. From his reading and teaching he has acquired a curiosity to visit some of the places in the textbooks. He hopes his next excursion can be a cruise up the Nile River, followed by trips to Rome and Greece. g y i pAg 1 ff l gif? 22 Mr. John Gore, the only bachelor on Coastal Academy's staff, teaches English, history and art. Being senior class sponsor, he has supervised several class trips, but he found Nassau to be especially to his liking for snorkling and visiting casinos. He discovered it to be a good place to relax and forget everything. Although Mr. Gore scoots about town in his M.G. Midget in keeping with his swinging image, he turns to his bike and iogging in pursuit of physical fitness. The beach often draws him, either to sun or to paint seascapes. Science department head Mrs Gaul Palmer has been introduced to sucba diving and camping by her husband Neil. The Florida Keys offer excellent diving conditions and the Palmers return at every opportunity to explore the watery-world. Mrs. Palmer has recently completed a 1 10- hour course to become an emergency medical technician with the North Myrtle Beach Rescue Squad. As a volunteer, she often has her evening meal, night's sleep, or weekend plans interrupted by an emergency call, and fund-raising calls for cleaning 3200 pounds of fish or making 400 pounds of slaw for fish fries. 23 Mrs. Ann Taylor, who tries to teach the demands of the English language, names Port- au-Prince, Haiti, as the most fascinating place she has been. She states, Haiti is a very poor country and this shocks the average American. The streets are filthy and teem with humanity, all the natives make and sell something. Yet it is somehow haunting and beautiful. Mrs. Taylor loves to lie in the sun six months of' the year, do yard work, and redecorate her home by painting and wallpapering. She also has a very active Boston terrier and a Pug that demand much attention and affection. O Mention the name 'fClemson and Mrs. Lorraine Jeffcoat immediately comes to mind. She is a dedicated follower of the Tigers and loves football weekends to her alma mater. lt can't be the excitement of winning, she explains, since we haven't done that recently. lt must be iust the fun of cheering for the team. Mrs. Jeffcoat does a lot of cheering with three sons who all play football at some level. She is a loyal and enthusiastic supporter of each. The math teacher also finds traveling to Hilton Head by boat enioyable recreation. She likes the sights, experiences and fishing. 24 Junior advisor and mathematics instructor Mrs. Kay Jones has made her home at one ofthe places she loves best - Murrells Inlet. The serene scenery, lovely moss-laden oaks, unpretentious marsh, and lingering spirit of the past appeal to her. However, Mrs. Jones admits that despite her love for the inlet, she sometimes longs for the snow-capped mountains of Germany where she and her husband snow skied while he was stationed there for three years. Life outside Coastal Academy is filled with her work at Antique Village with her husband Max, her two Doberman pinschers, and water-related sports such as boating, water skiing, and fishing. , .. . . at . .H ii?

He chooses the French Alps as one of the most beautiful and maiestic places he has been. He says these mountains are unlike any in this country despite the fact that the greenery is not as pretty as here. Hunting and dancing used to fill Mr. Johnson's spare time until the birth of his son in September. Now the tune of hungry cries at two a.m. has him doing an entirely different dance step. ,.j,,.w f'fv ,gp -,,s,, .1,,,.:-'qzge..- , www .ffx Because she is a teacher of Spanish, Ms. Penny McNeill has traveled rather extensively in Mexico and Spain both to learn and teach. She lived in Guadalaiara, Mexico, for six months and taught English to Mexicans. She has also studied at the University of Mexico. During this time she and six other girls lived with a Mexican couple who spoke no English. The other girls spoke limited Spanish. I went crazy translating, exclaims Ms. McNeill. During the summer of 1974 she spent two months on the Costa del Sol in southern Spain, but instead of attending school, she says she spent most of her time playing tennis at a club there. She has continued her pursuit of the game and plays whenever possible. She also likes bike riding and iogging. gg if ff 'N atm ,s .mv Mrs. Sheila Tisdale, who ioined Coastal's faculty this year as a part-time English teacher, has not visited any exotic or far-away places. However, she has been busy packing and unpacking since she and her family have moved nine times in ten years. The place she would most like to go is Hawaii. l'm a romantic, she states. Standing 5'l lV2 tall lwithout her hairl, Mrs. Tisdale is frequently in demand as a model in fashion shows. She also enioys sewing and needlework, but her favorite activities she declares are eating and sleeping. Mr. Sammie Bowers explains the land areas and climates of distant places in his geography classes, but he does not have to venture very far to find peace and relaxation. All he has to do is iourney as far as the lake behind his house with a fishing pole and become absorbed in the quiet atmosphere. In recent months, Mr. Bowers has become very enthusiastic about raising animals and now has thirteen rabbits, five pigeons, and four tanks of tropical fish. He would like to be able to have many other kinds of animals and attributes his interest to his father-in-law who gave him his initial stock. Custodian Luther Smalls has been a familiar face to Coastal students for three years. As a staff member, he takes care of various odd iobs and keeps the building and grounds in good condition. However, Luther has another vocation that he hopes to develop into a full-time occupation someday. He enioys preaching and is called upon by various churches almost every Sunday. Luther also has a trade in masonry and can build steps, foundations, walls, and many other things from bricks. He has lived in parts of Florida and would like to go back, especially to West Palm Beach. 28 Even though James T. Buddy Rogers, head basketball coach and physical education teacher, is a native sandlapper who loves the Grand Strand, he enioys getting away and visiting Texas and West Virginia. He appreciates the historical backgrounds of these states as well as the distinct difference from Myrtle Beach. Mr. Rogers would like to go to the New England and far West sections of our country because he feels this is the best way to learn about our nation. The unique sport of white water rafting appeals to him. He also likes to collect coins and certain antique items such as old pop bottles. He is currently taking up photography and his trips and ball teams provide subiects for pictures. ..,,', I pw ...,,. 29 f wfm1r': f r'W1111-lewwwam,i-W,-fl-i,-Mf A-+1wMf'ffuAH marina,-,l A -wg -fm'wz17 '11 141411-mrfn s'ff-mlrx ma, . arf- 'uf -n w, psalm w, f -.

These groups represent students that are interested in partic- ular fields of endeavor. Almost all of Coastal's students are involved in some club proiects, from selling tacos to creating hall bulletin boards. Not only the club sponsors and officers participate in these ill The main money-making project of the Spanish Club this year was the selling of tacos made by its members. Shannon Floyd, Howell Bellamy, Patrick Smith, and Judd Green hungrily await their lunch as served up by Teb Bough. l2l Reynolds Martin treats herself to a Span- ish delicacy. events, but each member of the club is drawn into these activities. This year's organizations got off to an early start through scheduled bi-monthly meetings. Clubs were revamped under the guidance of a group of students who worked as a student activity committee. The com- mittee planned a monthly calendar of events that began to resemble a menu because it was so filled with proiects that revolved around feed- ing Coastal's students. Doughnuts, hot chocolate, soup and sand- wiches, hot dogs and hamburgers, and the sales and raffles of baked goods all brought money into clubs' treasuries at a rapid rate. Oivinetfes Aid Others The Civinettes, under the sponsor- ship of Mrs. Kay Jones, found the I976-77 school year to be their most productive yet. Catering to the needs of others and serving the academy are the group's primary goals and their activities are designed to fulfill those aims. Unselfishness is the byword for the girls. ill The Civinettes went on an excursion to Tara Hall, a boy's home in Georgetown, iust before Christmas. They treated the boys with candy and cookies, played a spontaneous game of basketball with them, and ate lunch in the cafeteria as their guests. l2l Shari Leach, Jan Gore, and Ann Thomas prepare the upper school Christmas bulletin board, complete with Civinettes in the dis- guise of angels. l3l Julie Holcombe and Kelly Neal were cho- sen Queen and King of Harvest in a penny- vote contest sponsored by the Civinettes. The crowning took place at the Halloween Carni- val. Yearbook Staff Wins Trophies The summer months proved profit- able to the yearbook staff, both in honors and income. Most of the group attended Taylor Publishing Company's Workshop at Columbia College along with several hundred other high school students from across the state. Trophy awards were presented for best lay-out and design, as well as for copywriting. The staff's work netted them a first place trophy in copywriting and sec- ond place in lay-out and design in the small school division. Besides accomplishing a great deal at the workshop, the students began their advertising campaign early in the summer and had accu- mulated a substantial sum by the time school opened. Only a small part of the work lay behind them, however, those first color deadlines still meant hours of planning and picture taking. For the first time, most of the gen- eral photography was tackled by a student. Al Wheless's interest and training which began in the spring of 1976 and continued throughout the summer, paid off during the school year. Al could frequently be seen roaming the halls armed with the camera. All the months of preparation and hard work seemed worthwhile when each dummy page turned into an actuality on proof sheets. Then, finally, the production of a reality: the 1977 Retrospect arrived. Opposite page: lil Alec Ivey and Ken Register unload every- thing from camera to pillows upon arrival at Columbia College in July. Q21 After a Neil Young and Steven Stills Con- cert the previous evening at the coliseum, Ken is still high on music. This page: lil The staff assembled to show off trophies and lay-out before starting home. Al Whe- less, Mandie Harrelson, Ken Register, Joy McLeod, Rene Bellamy, Carson Benton, Kathryn Martin, Alec Ivey, Cathy Taylor, and Gene Wilkes made up the group. Q21 Copy editor Joy McLeod and editor Cathy Taylor display victory smiles. l3l Yearbook advisor Mrs. Ann Taylor looks over comments made by the iudges following the awards luncheon. Student Council Boosts Heart Fund Besides their routine clean-up proiects of the school grounds and areas of Highway 17 and Ocean Boulevard, the Student Council origi- noted a totally new service in the form of a Cruisade for the Heart Association. President Bill Cameron on his Surfboard paddled V2 mile for each pledge made for the Heart Fund. paddled a total of twenty miles and the Heart Association gained two hundred dollars. IU Daredevil John Williams guns his mower through the school's front lawn to help earn the Student Council's mainte- nance fee. l2l Elizabeth Singleton and Junior Ramsey count the dollars that will send Heart Cruisader Bill Cameron on his way. ASQ. 4 in 36 15 Magic and Q Regas Qtim ulate Curiosity The many activities of the Science Club were all aimed at promoting student curiosity about science. Both a science fair and a Christmas magic show provoked scientific interest among lower school students. As a reward for all of their efforts, the Science Club was accepted by the Future Scientists of America, part of the National Science Teach- er's Association. After working exceptionally well together, the French Club attended the third traditional French dinner at The Library, a local restau- rant known for its French cuisine. The meal, or BON REPAS, included an appetizer of LE SOUPE CONCOMBRE, the entree of LE PORC PARISIEN, and was topped off with both red and white wine. Experiencing this meal gave the students a real taste of French fare. ill Bill Cameron is very daring when he allows Kenneth Hucks to light a fire in his hand during the magic show. Q21 The first grade is amazed when magician Kenneth Hucks, along with assistant Kathryn Martin creates a large cloud of smoke. i3l After the meal, Mr. Johnson and the entire French Club signed the menu. 37 Knowledge Makes News Production of the 1976-77 school newspaper was almost wholly a stu- dent creation. Through the com- bined efforts of Coastal's own Woodward and Bernstein - Junior Ramsey and Jeff Stuart - issues of the C.A.T. were put together with only minimal teacher guidance. Rep- resentatives from each upper school class helped to discover news and write articles. The Beta Club continued to make headlines with its induction cere- mony, dinner meetings, and guest speakers. Since membership is lim- ited to students that maintain high academic standings, Betas must con- stantly dedicate themselves to the pursuit of knowledge. ill Another C.A.T. lay-out is ready to be pasted up for the printer. l2l Joel Allen, chief typist for the C.A.T., slaves to meet a deadline. l3j Editor Junior Ramsey reveals enthusiasm at seeing the first copy ofthe paper in print.

As the maior proiect to raise money for the Jun- ior-Senior, the theme of A Carnival of Beauty was chosen with the stage decorated like an old-fash- ioned amusement park. Committees were formed for all of the necessary proiects, and prep- arations got underway. Using their time after school, the class worked on and stored the decorations at Lawton Benton's house. After mak- ing a carousel, Calliope, and clowns to hold helium-filled balloons, the Juniors added their own personal touch by bringing stuffed animals. With her usual ingenious notions, Mrs. Jones brought lively entertain- ment to the audience. Several selected and gifted iunior boys sang and danced a rendition of l'm Just a Girl That Can't Say No to the delight of the audience. More amusement was provided by the fifth grade girls who dressed as mice and also sang and danced. The most hilarious form of merriment was a mock beauty pageant with boys from the entire upper school partici- pating. With their flaunts and antics, a winner, Carson Benton, first run- ner-up, Lewis Butler, and second runner-up, Kenneth Hucks were announced and topped the enter- tainment portion of the 1977 Miss Retrospect Pageant. lll In preparing for the pageant, Shari Leach lends a hand in painting the stage decora- tions. l2l Practicing for their lively portrayals as dancing girls, Mike Hobeika, Dennis Hucks, Ronnie Nuckles and Tommy Hamilton enioy their auditions with extra legs to help them out. ll I Sharing a serious, as well as light moment, these seventh graders, new at the game of pageantry, prepare to enter the stage. 121 Rachael Small and Dana Chandler climb the stairs of the Convention Center to the dressing rooms which began their night of promenading.

The Curtain Rises Practice, practice, practice . . . where to walk, when to smile, when to turn. These thoughts rushed through frenzied minds as time for the Miss Retrospect Pageant neared. The largest field yet, sixty-five con- testants, had worried themselves into nervous wrecks by 7:30 p.m., Oct. 13, 1976, when the curtains came up. The promenade of girls in casual wear and evening wear helped take the edge off nerves, and poise took over. Besides poise, the contestants were iudged on beauty of face and figure and having the look of the All-American High School Girl. After the months of preparations and hours of practice, iudging got underway. Nineteen semi-finalists and then the five finalists were announced. From this five, Nancy Walker was named queen, and her court was announced. Nancy took her walk down the runway as 1977 Miss Retrospect with tears and smiles. Then the lights dimmed, the audience filed out, and the audito- rium was left dark and empty. How- ever, vivid memories of that special night lingered on.

Besides kicking off the basketball season, the game meant a time to extend a welcome to our graduates and to crown a queen. The senior class organized the program of events. Occurring iust before the Thanks- giving holidays made it possible for many alumni to be on hand for the festivities, either as players or spec- tators. Even though the grads built an imposing line-up of past starters, Coastal's 1977 varsity squad took an early lead that they never relin- quished and defeated the alumni team with little problem.

The Cougars lost only one game to opponents within the state of South Carolina. They fell to a very good Wilson Hall team in Sumter. The other four losses may be attributed to tall, hustling AAA teams from North Carolina and West Virginia. In tallying the 23-5 mark, the Cougars ended conference play with a perfect 6-0 record, the first time this has ever been achieved. They trounced many of their opponents by 20 or 30 points. The conference winning streak was in ieopardy only when they trimmed rival Pee Dee by only 7 points in two games. They got back on the track when they ended conference play with a 90-34 This page: lil This year's Cougar line-up: lback rowl Lawton Benton, Carlton Hamilton, Kyle Price, lcenter rowl manager David Witherspoon, Scott Miles, Joel Allen, David Jeffcoat, Alec Ivey, manager M.

They then traveled to Colum- bia to trip Hammond 64-60. Against the Skyhawks, Coach Buddy Rogers won his 100th victory over a five year periodp an average of 20 games per year. The post season iinx struck again this year as it has in the past three. Kyle Brice and Kelly Neal, both starters, were sidelined with ankle iniuries. The Cougars traveled to Kingstree for the regional tourna- ment and lost to Pee Dee on Satur- day night in double overtime. The Cats came back and defeated the Eagles in a Monday night playoff game although it took them an extra period to manage it. Next, the Cou- gars were Sumter-bound and once again matched against the Barons of Wilson Hall in the semifinals of the state tournament. The Cougars were defeated soundly and a good sea- son missed being a great season by two games and two iniuries. This page: , U1 Senior Kyle Price initiates a power move against St. Joe's.

All of the confer- ence girls' teams, with perhaps the exception of James F. Byrnes, were fairly equal in ability, but somehow Coastal's scrappy lasses never seemed able to pull off victories that should have been theirs. Last minute surges in closely fought contests never seemed strong enough to secure a win. Their losses, however, could not be blamed on a lack of experience as everyone on the squad had seen previous action, with the possible exception of Eliza- beth Singleton, who moved up from junior varsity play. This year's win-loss record closely paralleled last season's eight and fifteen record with an eight and four- teen posting for 77. Spirited manager Shari Leach supplied her own answer to the teams' problem: lf we had some support, we could win some of those games! tl J The l977 Cougarette line-up is Deena Tal- bot, Dana Chandler, Lou Springs, Celeste Rid- dle, Nancy Walker, Sandra Leach, Kelly Howland, Jan Gore, Elizabeth Singleton, Keris Martin, Cathy Taylor, Caroline Smith, ifrontl Coach Dale Johnson, Ann Cromley, Margaret Martin, and Shari Leach, manager. t2l Coach Johnson concentrates on the girls' action on court. i3l Margaret Martin goes for the basket over Byrnes' opponent. ill A James F.

MJ Taking no chances, Keris Martin and Kelly Howland rush to Sandra Leach's aid in the heat of action. Varsity Cheerers Overcome Problems The cheering team selected in the spring underwent several shakeups before getting organized and under- way. After a successful week at cheering camp at Furman University where the group earned both the spirit stick and several ribbons, lead- ership problems arose once sched- uled practice began, resulting in the resignation of captain Cathy Taylor. Co-captain Paige Price attempted to revamp the group and begin anew. Cricket McDuffie filled and subse- quently gave up the seventh posi- tion, leaving the six-man squad for the season's remainder. The addi- tion of Cam Hinds and Melissa Dar- gan as Cougar mascots helped to enforce the total voice volume. The squad willingly struggled to boost team moral and crowd spirit through a number of new cheers and stunts that were added to the old standbys. Spirit did seem to increase and perhaps peak toward the end of the season with big rivals Wilson Hall and Hammond causing enthusi- astic response. ill Santa is surely happy to pose with Coast- al's cheering squad composed of Rachael Small, Robin Williamson, Paige Price, Cam Hinds, Lin Rowe, Karla Talbot, Karen Gore, and lfrontl Cricket McDuffie, and Melissa Dargan. l2l The varsity squad raised money by selling McDonald's hamburgers to students at lunch time.

Ml Cheering camp was rewarding to the graup when they received the spirit stick and two ribbons. J. V. 's Turn in Winnin Record Coastal's iayvees had a very suc- cessful season. Even though they lacked experience, the young Cou- gars combined their other resources for a 12 and 4 record. Coach Carroll Taylor lost all of his veterans of the previous season - Lawton Benton, Lewis Butler, Ronnie Nuckles, Scott Miles, and David Jeffcoat moved up to the varsity squad - and also suffered another handicap in the absence of bench strength.

New players who hope to aid the team a great deal are Alec lvey, who sat out last year, Carson Benton, Bill Cameron and Bobby Goodman. All the matches the Cougars play in Myrtle Beach will be at the newly renovated Dunes Club. The Dunes is one of the toughest courses in the United States and should pose a big threat to the opposition if the Cougars are swinging free and easy.

Hopeful nis tournament held annually at the Hilton Head in the spring. A strong returning line-up of boys experienced in team play, plus the addition of newcomer Steve Ericson, made strong contenders ofthe boys' team. Eager to improve, many of the female tennis enthusiasts sought individual lessons besides working out almost daily with Ms. Penny McNeil and Mrs. Joy Newnam, suc- cessful local competitors who lent their time and ability. Many of the team members were returnees from last year, thereby building upon past experience in interschool competi- tion. bow, lil A symbol of tennis is the many types of shoes available.

Coaches' Corner When they discuss athletics, most people spend a great deal of time discussing the talent of the athletes themselves. However, the coach cannot be discounted and can often be the most important element of a team. Whether it be basketball or golf season, the coaches at Coastal Academy spend long hours develop- ing their respective teams. This iob of providing leadership for a squad is not always an easy one. GOLF Coached by Dr. Henry Evans Dr. Evans explains that he enioys coaching for many reasons. To him, the most enioyable part is seeing the boys striving together toward a com- mon goal. Even though he loves to see his team win, Dr. Evans places much emphasis on each team mem- ber contributing and all working together successfully. He states that drawbacks are also a part of coaching. One of the shortcomings is the Monday-morn- ing quarterback, says the coach. This is the athlete who is out for individual achievement. Dr. Evans' most memorable coaching moment came at a time when he was an assistant football coach. His team won two consecu- tive state championships. JAYVEE BASKETBALL Coached by Mr. Carroll Taylor Besides being heodmaster, Mr. Taylor is coach of the JV basketball team. He has always loved athletics, especially basketball. His favorite part of coaching is working with youngsters and helping them develop their talents. He is aware that it is not all fun and Along with the thrill of victory many hours of work and sleepless nights. However, he adr that he has experienced numer great things during his coach career, so many that it is impossi to name one as being most memc ble. GIRLS' BASKETBALL Coached by Mr. Dale Johnson Mr. Johnson played basketball throughout his high school and col- lege years. Because he loves the sport, and enioys the challenge of building a successful team, he became the girls' coach. According to him, the greatest part of coaching is the pride in a team and the respect that is earned. The greatest problem is the athlete who is out for the sole purpose of enhancing his social life. His biggest moment came when he was in high school and coached the iunior girls to a powder- puff football championship! BOYS' BASKETBALL Coached by Mr. Buddy Rogers As athletic director and head coach, Mr. Rogers finds coaching to be challenging, rewarding, and exciting. He says, Coaches can be instrumental in the development of young people, and I hope I am mak- ing at least a token contribution. Mr. Rogers observes that in order to be a coach, he has to be willing to do without a lot of things, be unable to hear, and unable to tell time. lf a coach is to do a good job, there is little or no time for anything else, he says. Even though he has had many great experiences, he hopes his most memorable has yet to occur. When we reach the point where everyone on the team, including myself, is doing his best, I am sure that will be a moment l'll always remember. IL 2 fx S N . fw.

Sometimes it is not easy to find the way through a difficult task, but somewhere along the way, the light will dawn and the answer will be suddenly there if we only search deeply enough for it. lll Jay Dusenbury seems lost in thought as Miss McNeil challenges the class with Span- ish. l2l Workbooks for young students demand thought before action. l3l Bryan McKenzie takes a careful look at his work before tackling it.

WHWW' Run and Play Without the fun ond games, life would be very dull. Every person, young or old, needs a time to lift his spirits in laughter. Playing is as important as working and learning. Nothing brings more fun during winter than a sudden flurry of snow! Frozen hands and cold noses are forgotten in the excitement of watch- ing the world turn white and catch- ing snowflakes.

Approximately two months out of each year, four teams consisting of lower school boys battle for the league champi- onship. These youngsters are coached by upper school athletes who dedicate themselves to their task. The Mite League games, filled with suspense, give each player a chance to participate and are great learning experiences. ill Mite League coaches are Jeff Stuart, Alec Ivey, David Jetfcoat, Junior Ramsey, Bobby Goodman, Kyle Price, and Clark Butler. 121 Tripp Jackson, Trae Rhodes, Mac Darrow, Rocke Crowe, Donnie Todd, Jay Dusenbury, and Stephen Jackson make up the Suns.

But all seek relaxa- tion and pleasure through activities that express their personalities. Trav- eling, creating, or playing cards adds up to busy days for the ladies of Coastal Academy's lower school. Third grade teacher Miss Marga- ret Regan discovered candle making through ,Christmas activities for her students, and she has continued to create new and unusual designs for her home. Many different sizes and shapes glow on her tables during the holiday season. Another creation that can be found making her apartment attrac- tive is handhooked rugs. Miss Regan has been pursuing this hobby for a number of years, and the lovely oval and oblong patterns add a personal touch to each room. Even though she works at a local motel during the summer, Miss Regan tries to find time to visit Flo- rida whenever possible. She espe- cially likes Tampa, Sarasota, and Lakeland. Miss Anne Springs ioined Coastal's staff this year as second grade instructor. She brings with her memories ofa visit to Switzerland several years ago. The beautiful city of Lucerne with the lights reflecting on the river at night makes her wish to return some day. Miss Springs' talents cover sewing, cross-stitching, playing bridge and the piano. She has previously taught public school music and still loves to play favorite songs and arrangements. After teaching second grade for several years, Ms. Martha Burr ioined first graders this year when a second section was added to Coastal. Having taught first grade in the past, she welcomed a chance to return to this grade level of instruction. As creative outside of school as she is inside las displayed through her artistic bulletin boards and wall postersl, Ms. Burn's abilities range from cross-stitching designs for pictures to handpainting stools in bright colors. 137 Reading instructor Mrs. Aubie Thomas, wife of lawyer .lack Thomas, loves to travel with him and their young pre-schooler J.J. to law conventions in various parts of the country. She says that after spend- ing a week in San Francisco, they almost picked up and moved there it was so beautiful. She especially loved the fresh roses on every street corner for 52.50 a dozen! Real leisure for Mrs. Thomas is having time to read or do needle- work. She enioys crewel, crochet, counted cross-stitch, and needle- point. She is presently working on a set of six needlepoint chairseats in Williamsburg designs for her dining room. Music floats through the hours of Miss Mary Ann McNinch's days since she teaches it during school and dances to it afterwards. Eve- ,., c, nings out that include dancing and discotheques are a special treat for her. She visited Europe two years ago, and the cathedrals, music halls, and operas of Austria and Italy were her favorite places. Www 'ff-it HE p Veteran first grade teacher Mrs. Allison Butler frequently tunes in the television to her favorite sport of football. She likes both college and professional games, but she is particularly a fan of the Redskins. Bridge also appeals to Mrs. Butler and she plays several times a week with friends in Conway. Lynchburg, Virginia, appeals to her because it is the home of her daughter, bufalso because of the beautiful apple orchards and mountains and its Confederate War history. Having lived in the metropolitan area of Washington, D.C., Mrs. Lyn- ette Harris and her husband Bob still enioy visiting their many friends who still live there. The shopping centers and many cultural events also appeal to them. Mrs. Harris espe- cially likes the Smithsonian Institute. When Mrs. Harris is not teaching fifth and sixth grade English, social studies, and reading, she fills her time teaching piano, cooking spicy Mexican dishes from her native New Mexico, or tending to her numerous plants. She admits that her patio looks like a iungle during the sum- mer when she addsl to her stock of greenery. Miss Jean Duckett, fourth grade instructor, readily admits to being an outdoors person. She loves to ride her bike on the beach at low tide and to play tennis. She climbed to the highest spot in Virginia in the Peaks of Otter last summer. When bad weather forces her to remain inside, Miss Duckett enioys reading, eating, and creating macrame wall hangings. She shares her apartment with her toy French poodle which she keeps well goomed and cared for. Mrs. Marie Davis, iust married in December of 1976, finds the West a very appealing section of the country, mainly because her husband-to-be Jim was attending a national guard training school in Lawton, Oklahoma, for the six months before their marriage. However, the beauty of the land with its little mountains from which one can see for miles, the prairie dogs, and the buffalo lshe almost touched onell added to the pleasure of her visits. She also liked the beautiful lakes and the very low humidity, so unlike Myrtle Beach. When she leaves her classroom where she teaches math, science, and health to fifth and sixth graders, Mrs. Davis spends most of her time being a wife and keeping her new husband well-fed and happy. 'ieigg Double Trouble As the population of this country grows, so does that of Coastal Academy. This year our school dou- bled its trouble by adding an addi- tional section of the first grade. Now instead of twenty-two wiggling and noisy youngsters, there are thirty- nine, all waiting on the very first day of school for those little curly things to take the form of words. Then the world of their new friends, Dan and Fran, is opened to them through reading.

Armed with shiny new lunch boxes and fat, stubby pencils, they load into car pools for a school day of adventure. They explore the library, sing in the music room, and find sports excite- ment in the gym. First grade is a spring board for all the many days of learning ye- ahead. They must be active listener, and gain from the sounds of nature- things, and people. They look a shapes, patterns, movements, an faces and become aware of th world around them which they nee to understand some day.

Two for the Show The second grade show is on, and the students are the stars in class productions such as spelling bees and rainy day games lSeven-Up is a favoritel. The acts are filled with spelling, multiplying, writing original stories, and reading Caldecott books. Making kites became the favorite art proiect of the year. Star attractions included Waddell Soloman's winning second prize in the Thanksgiving drawing contest, Jamie Jurney having scariest cos- tume at the Halloween contest, and Heather Hall's winning a C.B. radio in the magazine sale drawing.

Get Ready F Ready for whatever comes: Foreign lands Monsters Outer space Social studies takes the class on a travel tour of foreign lands and lan- guage. Faraway places with strange sounding names are brought closer through study, and Marco Polic's visit to Yugoslavia makes travel across the sea a reality. Mars, monsters and mysterious obiects have always fascinated stu- dents. Loch Ness, Big Foot, and Yetti bring spinetingling excitement to imaginative third graders. The lure of outer space makes boys dream of being astronauts and visiting Mars. The idea of space ships and strange things in the sky cause all to stop and look toward the stars at night. Science awakens young minds to great thoughts and third grade readies students for even broader areas of knowledge before them.

Action is second nature to them, and sports is the favorite way to go. Basketball, baseball, football, surfing, skate- boarding, Grand Prix racing, and gymnastics are the many activities these youngsters are finding fun. When they slow down long enough, television is a favorite pas- time. Baa, Baa, Black Sheep appeals to most with its excitement of flying and fighting. The routine school day often makes it hard to sit still and listen, but after book reports are made, and information learned, the reward of an extra recess sets them on the go again.
