If you weren't at Amelia High School last night you really missed the action. The Dukettes are now on their way with their first basketball victory of the sea- son and many others just waiting to happen. If you want excitement plus, plan to attend their game at Prince Edward next Monday night or their home game against Clover Hill next Wednesday night. The Dukettes suffered a minor setback in their win- ning efforts as they met Clo- ver Hill last night. However, we are proud of the way they fought back in the last quar- — ter, just like true champs. Plan to attend their next JaXeyontommexeboelcmele .¢mm y Coyncercay night against Powatan. As was predicted the girls' basketball team posted a thrilling victory over Prince Edward last night. After a cold first quarter the girls put it all together and Prince Edward never stood a chance. If you are missing out on the action, tomorrow night is a home game with Clover Ilill. Plan to attend and watch the Dukettes add to their winning streak. In a most physical game last night, the girls’ basket- ball team defeated Prince Ed- ward for the second time this season--36-28. Our con- eratulations and best wishes for their remaining games.

Many pep rallies are given, much noise is made, and people's spirits are raised. Class competition is big this year as classes compete in not only noise making but also games and stunts such as cracker eating and whistling contests, re- lay races, dancing, and class chants. The spirit the cheerleaders generated plus their pep and vitality truly make each one of them 15 ANTICIPA TION ABOVE: Dukes hold Goochland to a short BELOW: Get him, Abraham and Marvin. gain.

The Dukes came as Close to an even season as possible. At times we showed a superb offensive attack, such as our 24 points and 357 yards against Clover Hill, or our 45 points and 383 yards against Page County. Defensively, although this was their strong point, they still showed inconsistencies. Only two teams were able to score more than 18 points against them, and seven were held to under 200 yards total offense. Perhaps the most consistent and solid part of the Dukes program was their kicking game, which made very few major mistakes, and kept the Dukes alive in many games by their solid play. Offensively there were several players who did an outstand- ing job. David Baber had two games in which he gained over 100 yards, averaged over 4 yards per carry over the season, and caught 10 passes, despite being hobbled by an ankle injury the second half of the season. Gene Shores led all recievers with 26 receptions, many of these being big third down plays. Sylvester Lipscomb at quarterback also did a commendable job, complet- ing 41% of his passes, and showing promise as a runner gaining 140 yards, and scoring two touchdowns against Page Country.

Holding down the offensive line were Buford Latham, Doug Whaley, Derek Oliver, Marvin Mayo, Marvin Meadows, Dave Buchanan, Richard Nuckols, Danny Henshaw, Ronnie Saunders, and Alfred Trent. There were many standouts defensively, but the heart of the defense was the linebacker corps. Derek Oliver averaged better then ten tackles per game to lead the Dukes, and was closely followed.by Doug Whaley with eight tackles per game. David Baber lead the defense in interceptions with eight and was con- tinually one of the leading tacklers. Gene Shores also did an outstanding job which included three interceptions, all with good return yardage. The defenisve secondary showed their strength through con- sistency, allowing only three touchdown passes all season, and those coming the first four games. Marvin Mayo, Ronnie Saun- ders, and Danny Henshaw all did a commendable job. The de- fensive line showed continual improvement as the season progres- sed. Leading the defensive line were John Wilson, Dave Buch- anan, Cecil Scott, Maclolm Vannoy, and Tony Mullins. An in- dication of the alertness of the defense was the fact that they caused their opponents to fumble 38 times and recovered 33 of them.

Fees ee, The 1974-75 Dukette basketball team got off to a slow and shaky start, but progressed into one of the most exciting, aggressive, and talented teams Cumberland has ever produced. Even though the Dukettes posted a 6-8 record, they showed an extreme desire to win and to be true champions, For the first time the girls played basketball as a team, they experienced victory and defeat with great dignity and satisfaction in giving it their best. One of the weak points about the team was their height. Most of the other teams in the dis- trict used their height to put Cumberland at a dis- advantage and therefore, on the losing end. The team was also unable to score as high as the other teams at the beginning of the season, but with great individual improvements the girls were able to boost their scoring average to 34 points. _ The team improved their performance all-around, but unfortunately the other teams in the district got stronger also. Even though the team had sev- 19 Coach Kimbleton takes time out to discuss strategy.

Some games the girls could put it all together , and then other games they just couldn't get the ball bouncing. As with all true champions however, the Dukettes never gave up and surprised many teams with their never die attitude. Nextyear the team will lose several players due to gradua- tion and will be in a rebuilding process, but you can never predict what will happen. The season was successful not only with im- provements on basketball skills, but also with the relationships among players which all winning teams must have. For those who are graduating, ‘the forces that await you in the world are like a basketball game-you will be competing and striv- ing to conquer those forces. If you give up, you will live in a world that other people have made for you and shall therefore sense defeat--never give up.

The 1974-75 edition of the Cumberland Dukes basketball team faced a rebuilding year and were forced to play without the height advantage that they had enjoyed for the past five years. Despite the height disadvantage that was evident in every game, the Dukes still played H-U-S-T-L-E and determination all season long. The Dukes style of play (press, press, and press) will be remembered by the other teams in the James River District. This style of play will continue next year as the Dukes will be more determined to improve on their 4-13 record. Highlights of the season included the win over AA rival Randolph Henry, with Jerry Wilson scoring 34, 32,30, and 28 points against various opponents. There were also close games with arch rival Prince Edward and Clover Hill. Although the season was not a success in the _ sense of winning and losing, the coaches were proud of the team and are looking forward to the 1975-76 season, 21 CUMBERLAND OPP 72 Randolph Henry 79 23 Clover Hill 101 85 Goochland 49 65 Fluvanna 71 a7 Prince Edward 81 69 Powhatan 77 ay ‘Buckingham 73 49 Amelia © 56 65 Randolph Henry 59 62 Goochland 56 52 Fluvanna at 46 Powhatan — 58 a1 Prince Edward 62 49 Buckingham 80 81 Amelia, 53 47 Clover Hill 50 52 74 Clover Hill LEAP, TEAM, LEAP-YOU |KNOW YOU GOTTA LEAP pis AO Dir, FRONT ROW: Daniel Robinson, Sylvester Lipscomb, Danny Henshaw, Gene Shores, Matt McAbee, Ronnie Saunders, Ar- thur Foster, and Gregory Gilliam.

The Dukes baseball team appeared to be headed for the top as they ended regular season play with a 10-4 record. The team started off slowly, dropping their first two games; they then seemed to get it all together and won the next seven games. And then as the season ended, the Dukes found themselves in a first place tie with Fluvanna, but Fluvanna was awarded first place because they beat the Dukes twice during the regular season. The Dukes settled for second place and found themselves facing Goochland in the first round of the tournament. They tried hard, but were beaten by the team that ended up runners up in state competition. All was not lost however, for the Dukes had beaten Goochland twice during regular season play by scores of 12-2 and 5-1; and that's something to brag about--beating the runners up in state competition twice. The team ended up with a .298 batting average, with four players batting over .350. David Baber led all batters with a .517 average followed by Marcellus Robinson with a - 393 average. Home run hitters for the Dukes included Dav- id Baber, Marvin Meadows, and Daniel Robinson with two. Additional honors went to Gene Shores and Marcellus Robin- son who were selected to the first all-district team--Gene at third base and Marcellus in centerfield.

The 1974-75 Dukette Softball season opened with a strong desire to take first place in the James River District. As the season progressed, the Dukettes became stronger, and only when they defeated them- selves did they suffer a loss. The team con- sisted of several seniors, all of which were quality players, that assisted in construct- ing one of the most experienced teams in the district. Even though the task of trying to take first place became harder after the second game at Goochland, the team maintained their poise and organization and confiscated their share of victories. The season ended with the Dukettes posting an 11-3 record which earned them second place in the district. Next year will be mostly a rebuilding season for the Dukettes, but with a strong will and hard work their goal of capturing first place won't be too far away.

The main stay of the team was the veterans, although the new members helped out also. After losing meets to Powhatan, Prince Ed- ward, Goochland, Fluvanna and Clover Hill, the Duke Spirits came on strong to win one of only two tri- meets. A highlight for the year was the teams par- ticipation in the Buena Vista Relays held in BuenaVis- ta, VA. Many members competed and though the go- ing was tough, Alfred Trent placed first in the high hurdles and second in the lows. The 880 relay team also scored placing fourth. Many members qualified for district competition at Clover Hill and a few made it through district and regional. Those that made State competition were: Alfred Trent--High hurdles and Low hurdles Matthew Allen--100 yard dash Herman Trent--220 yard dash Malcolm Vannoy--High jump The 880 Relay team--(M. Allen, M.

One week before the Girls District Track meet, Cumberland formed its girls track team. And after only one week of practice, the girls won the Dis- trict Meet. Several girls also qualified for the Regional Meet, and the Dukettes had one winner there. Carolyn Blanton, a sophomore, placed in the shot put and went on to state competition. Carolyn didn't place in the state meet, but she did make a fine showing. The girls track team, under the coaching of Carolyn Kimbleton, has the great honor of claim- ing the only first place in district com- petition for the Dukes. 27 1975 SPORTS pmo en ee Ase | 7 ie Ri TR Most Valuable Player awards went to Alfred Trent--track; Marvin Meadows--baseball; Windy Moorefield--softball; Sheila Hatcher--girls basketball; Matthew Allen-boys basketball.

This year the Junior Varsity football team put mind, body and soul into the game and broke a two year 19 game losing streak. With the help of Coaches Johnson, Butcher and Cosby we whipped Pow- hatan 30 to 0! The offensive plays were called by quar- terbacks Stewart Grant and Cleveland John- son; the leading rusher was Tony Ellison, said to be the best in the district. The defensive players were not lagging behind in their jobs either, for noteam scored over 30 points against us. The defense was led by leading tacklers Lionel Brown and Danny Trent. Despite our losing record of one win and seven losses, these young ath- letes worked hard and enjoyed improving their abilities. Through this hard work, the junior varsity squad showed a promise of better things to come. Leading ground gainer Tony Ellison displays his bre akaway form.

Basketball team, even though in a losing season, still enjoyed many fine games as they produced a 6-11 record. The youngteam, playing without a lot of last year's team leaders, work- ed hard all season long, and after playing like a team, came up with some unbelievable victories. Come from behind victories over Buckingham and Crewe, plus wins overGoochland, Powhatan, Ran- dolph Henry, and Amelia show that these young men really have talent. And when it was considered that the team lost three games by only three points and two games by only one point, one realizes that there was some good basketball. Perhaps most important of all, the team players were courageous, emotional, and they be- lieved that they could defeat any team.

The NHS activities this year included hosting a spagetti supper as a money raising pro- ject, and collecting contributions of food and cloth- ing for a needy family. The club introduced a new project this year entitled NHS Week. It consisted of displays on a bulletin board to encourage students to strive for membership, and a bulletin board to inform stu- dents exactly what the NHS does. A color day was executed, anda day when NHS students taught class- es for several teachers was also held. A contribution of $25.00 was givento the Payne Memorial Church Building Fund and $35.00 was added to the scholarship fu nd set up in memory of David Hindle Goodman, This scholarship will be headed by the National Honor Society. a z t ” 4 s 4 ( _— WS. ue R ayy 7 ¥ 4 lhe Lacy Ford, President, discusses important business with members during a meeting in Mrs. Allen's room.

Beginning with a Christmas program which |’ D LI KE combined American folk hymns, sixteenth cen- tury carols, and Moravian hymns, and ending TO TE ACH with a Baccaulaureate performance, they showed new pride and determination in sharing their voices with others. After the death of Mr. Lam- TH = WO RLD phere, Mr. Duvall did a tremendous job of work- ing extensively with the chorus, which made them TO SING shine at the spring concert. His enthusiasm, to- ses gether with the inspiration that the new building will provide, will surely help our chorus to grow to a group of fifty members.

In keeping with Bobby Flippen's famous campaign promise, the telephone was installed. The immediate area became the most popular stomping area at lunch. At last there was a chance for communication with the outside world! This year's SCA worked hard at meeting the needs of all of the students through involvement in many school functions.

The FFA originated as a part of the high school vocational agriculture program. FFA activities encourage members to learn through active participation, how to conduct and take part in public meetings, to speak in public, to solve their own problems, to fin- ance themselves, and to assume civic respon- sibility. Members enjoy fellowship with others who have a common interest in agribusiness and strive for improved agriculture, better lo- cal communities, a more satisfying home life and responsible citizenship. This past year, the Cumberland FFA Chap- ter has participated in a number of activities that involved all FFA members. The first ac- tivity was having the officers take part in the Piedmont Leadership Training School. During this meeting, Dale Mounce was elected vice- president of the Federation. Hubert Allan, Andy Hamilton, Major Lewis and Dale Mounce represented Cumberland at the State Fair in Richmond. Barbara Robinson, Herb Clark, Hubert Allen, and Longest Varner participated in the forestry judging contest, placing first in the Federation Competition and fourth on the area level. Radio programs this year in- cluded a Christmas safety program and an- other during National FFA Week. Once again the Keep Virginia Green program was spon- sored by chapter. Meetings held each month during school brought members of the community to speak to the group. These people included Mr. Price, Mr. Riland, Mr. Newman, and Forest War- dens Leonard Tennant and Tank Womack. The Chapter Public Speaking Contest was won by Dale Mounce, who also placed third in Federation competition. The chapter this year as always sends delegates and judging teams to the state convention in Blacksburg. This is held at VPI and SU annually. A first this year is that in October of 1975 President Dale Mounce will represent us at the National Convention in Kansas City, Missouri.

DEDICATION 49 Seven years ago, a band was the dream of our parents, and that dream came true in the form of Mr. Lam- jo) alos aoPame we (omor-beel om nomm @itbeelol—salk-bolemr-belemnnie-to met by a group of eager young people who weren't really sure what band was all about. It didn't take him long to learn that we needed plenty of practice, but that didn't discourage him. He started with practice one night a week and en- couraged us through all the wrong notes, bad timing, and awful sounds. And un- der his direction, we improved; we played wrong notes less frequently, and the day finally came when we actually played a song. It was a joyous time for us but it was all because of Mr. Lam- phere and his patience and understanding. During these seven years we have grown in number, but we owe all the success of our accomplishments to Mr. Lamphere. His devotion and concern for the music that has played such an important role in our lives has made us the musicians we are today. Through many long hours of work, Mr. Lam- - phere proved to us all that music is beauty and a piece of art accomplished only through dedication and work. We only hope that our musical abilities which Mr. Lamphere taught us will one day have as far reaching and bene- ficial effects as Mr. Lamphere did. MARCHING DUKES —— For the first time, a stage band was started at Cumberland; after many long hours of Monday night pra- tice, the stage band jazzed up the Christmas concert with Old Saint Nick Takes A Rocking Trip. Six- teen members strong, the stage band displayed their talents at the Spring Concert doing three numbers, in- cluding an old one which stirred the hearts of many parents. Members included: Robin Franklin, Jeff Mar- tin, John Goodman, Dan Rigsby, Tom- my Stanley, David Goodman, Paul Ingle, Cathy Franklin, Howard Fox, Randy Martin, Linda Thomas, Dyral Speas, Pam Shelton, Gary Metzger, Mitzi Turner, and Debbie Arndt. SL ABOVE: Dyral Speas and Robin Franklin chat before band class. LOWER LEFT: Jeff Martin and Dan Rigsby at stage band practice. The Cumberland High School marching Dukes started the year off strong, performing at the home football games and doing a very fine job. The Dukes participated in many different ac- tivities during the year, all of which were most beneficial. The only parade performance was the Farmville Christmas Parade at which the band put forth a very commendable performance, Christ- mas and Spring Concerts were presented for the sixth straight year and many compliments were gratefully received on the hard work and dedi- cation put forth. In the spring, the band went to the Regional Festival and returned with a rating of excellent. Many students also performed at the Solo and Ensemble Festival, receiving ra- tings of superior and excellent. The band at- tended the Tri-County Festival at Goochland in April. In May, band director Mr. Charles Lam- phere passed away from injuries received in an automobile accident. The band greatly felt the loss of a man so dedicated and concerned with music and young people. Mr. Lamphere was the originator of the Cumberland band seven years ago, and under his direction, the band grew in size and finally became accomplished musicians. The band owes all of its success to such a hard- working man. DUKE YEARBOOK STAFF AT WORK This year the yearbook staff expand- ed the book to include sixteen extra pages plus a greater view of student life. And for the first time, the cover was de- signed by a student and included a brand new title, 'Everybody Is A Star. There were many long meetings, but for the first time students were given a period during the day to work. This cut down on after school confu- sion, and it allowed more students the opportunity to become involved. Tragedy struck as assistant editor David Goodman was killed, and the en- tire staff felt the loss of a hard consci- entious worker. But work had to go on, and the staff worked even harder to make David's dream of a great book come true. After many long hours, days, and months, the staff finally visualized the finished product and realized that in- deed, Everybody Is A '75 Star.

Ina very close game which saw bothteams match buckets down to the final second, the women faculty defeated the Senior girls by a score of 27-25. Cheerleaders Derek Oliver, Alan Nuss, Dyral Speas, Ricky Ownby, Hubert Allen, Bobby Flippen, Doug Mounce, Ted Trent, Stewart Grant, Wayne Lipscomb and Danny Oliver cheered both teams on down to the final buzzer. WOMEN FACULTY DO IT AGAIN What would the game be without the cheerleaders? Coach Carolyn Kimbleton talks it over with some of the women faculty. SENIORS DEFEAT FACULTY IN SOFTBALL After the loss to the women faculty in basketball, the Seniors were deter- mined that the softball games would not be a repeat performance. And it was not, as the Seniors knocked the women faculty out of the ball game. Once again, the money from the game went to the Senior class. 57 Bo TOP: Linda Lucy, LillianSimms, Frances Tanner, Carol Brown, Sherry Lucy.

Everybody went into the even- ing full speed and ended it up on overdrive! There was the nervousness of the Queen candidates and representatives. For the team there was the anticipa- tion of WINNING. But most of all, there was EXCITEMENT for every- body, becuase it was HOMECOMING 74 , We felt our DUKES would stomp Charles City High and they didn't let us down. After the DUKES triumphed on the football field, everybody boog- ied on down to the school and bump- ed to the music. Homecoming 74 will be a shining star in the memory of everyone. 59 PARTY DOWN!! For the first time in years there are an abundance of dances to go to at C.H. S.No longer are there just movies and ball games to pass the weekend but the school is beginning to provide enter- tainment for the students. No matter what kind of music, or how you wanted it presented, whether by band, D.J., or records, you could come to C.H.S. and PARTY DOWN. HEAVEN MUST King and Queen Matthew Allen and Madlyn Mosby. The theme for the 1975 Junior-Senior Prom was Heaven Must Be Like This. Dancing in an en- chanted world to the music of Licorice will long be remembered by all of those who found out on that special night what Heaven must really be like. 60 BE LIKE THIS PAINFUL AND THE INGROWN TOENAILS STAR AT 50’s DANCE This year the guys and dolls were READY with grease and lipstick! All of the formerly shy souls who were reluctant to show off last year bopped in ready to rock and roll. Elea- nora Shwartz (Donna Franklin) held dancing lessons in the morning at the studio in Ms. Bryer's room, Allen Franklin and his gang with choppers terrorized the school, Her- man Bullwinkle Monklemyer (William Rob- inson), starving artist from the village, sket- ched souvenir portraits, and ''Painful and the Ingrown Toenails churned out those old fa- milar tunes at lunch. The crowds went wild! Adrienne Tyler and Susan Goodman were voted Best Rats of the day for having car- ried lunch trays, tied and untied many shoes, and obeyed ridiculous orders, from sophomores, The dance featured Spanky's Sweet Shoppe, operated by Linda Gregory. The menu in- cluded moon pies, sodas, and cand y. Awards were given for dancing, bubble gum contest, hula hoop contest, and best dressed people. To the parents who were so generous and acted as chaperones, dance teachers, and judges, the yearbook staff says THANK YOU! CLASS NIGHT It's a pie in the face for Doug Whaley! Windy's gag gift was a bra. Class Night '75 started off with var- ious skits depicting the school days of the Seniors, including Mr. Lawson's homeroom, Mr. Meinhard's class, and Mrs. Simonini'’s class. The class pro- phecy and last will and testament were delivered. Gag gifts were given to the Seniors, and gifts were given to the Senior sponsors and to Mr. Bartlett.

Does the band room really have an air con- ditioner? Will the activity bus run this spring? Is your master schedule ready? Has the track been lined for this afternoon's meet? These are all questions that deal with the various roles of the Superintendent, Administrative Assistant, Principal, and the Assistant Principal. Mr. Price has been quite busy this year due to the expansion of classrooms and of of- fices. Included in the expansion will be a bio- logy lab, aband andchoral room, anartroom, and expanded office space. Mr. Robeson re- mains busy with supervising maintenance and planning for the arrival of the seventh grad- ers. He is also actively engaged in mapping out bus routes and seeing that bus rules are followed. Mr. Bartlett has encouraged the faculty to individualize instruction in order to pro- vide for the needs of each student. Working for the expansion of extra curricular activi- ties and planning for the arrival of the sev- enth graders has kept him quite busy. At- tendance at sports events, talent shows, club meetings, dances, and banquets are not just duties but activities he enjoys. Seeing the school expand and improve are the most re- warding parts of his duties. Mr. Bundy has earned the respect and ad- miration of students by participating in extra curricular events frequently. Coaching girls' basketball and directing the girls’ track team oor = are two of the projects particularly appreci- peas e seen ated by girls' sports enthusiasts. He is re- sponsible for carrying out the events of the Mr. Meredith Robeson, Administrative Assistant Virginia High School League. ae 5 See Ey — ... fz Mr. Samuel Bundy, Assistant Principal Mr. Herman Bartlett, Principal 70 GUIDANCE AND LIBRARY Cumberland welcomed Mrs. Isenbarger as its new eighth, ninth, and tenth grade counselor, Bringing a tremendous amount of enthusiasm and a desire to undertake new projects, she has encouraged many students to realistically ex- plore career choices. Hardly a week went by without a program. Speakers from the Army, Navy, Air Force, community colleges and uni- versities captivated students. One of the most popular events was the musical van from South- side Community College, that drew a large audi- ence because of the ''Hands On learning pro- jects it displayed. She is eagerly awaiting next year to more fully develop a career aware- ness program. Mrs. Gilliam also anxiously looks to becom- ing a full time counselor. The intense counseling required for juniors and seniors requires a strong knowledge of job opportunities, standard- ized testing, and college entrance requirements. Last minute college worries and graduation re- quirements keep her quite busy. As always Mrs. Putney continues to encourage use of the library. As new books arrive, she finds herself surrounded by students who anx- iously await the cataloging of the books. As teachers discover films, records, and new re- search ideas, she lends her support with her kindness and efficiency. BELOW: Mrs. Putney WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU HAD $1,000,000? What color is fear? What can I put in my auto- biography? When can we see a play? Who is Antigone anyway? These questions and many more were an- -swered in English classes all over the campus. Many other activities were also introduced into the English curriculum. Some of the classes visited the Virginia Museum's stage play MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING. Mrs. Scales' classes produced ANTIGONE, held a 50's day, and created numerous attractive bulletin boards. Senior English classes saw Pygmalion at Longwood, wrote poetry, and saw films. Sophomores also produced plays and did creative writing of both stories and poems. Definitely creativity among Eng- lish students is shining at CHS!

Take one hundred one, and to it affix the half of a dozen, or if you please six, put fifty to this and you will see, what every good boy to others would be. Such brain bogglers were everyday material in math classes this year. Drama invaded the department as groups wrote skits about Euler's Seven Bridges of Konigsberg problem, de- ciphering codes, and the Secret Society of the Pythagor - eans. Outdoor measurement, string design, tessellations, computers, and careers in math were independent re- search projects. Advanced math students tackled trigonometric identi- ties, differentiation, and integration. The MAA contest winners were Allan Porterfield, Mitzi Turner, and Alan Nuss.

Mr. Garnett Building Trades Mr. Morris Vocational Agriculture Mr. Benedict Shop Shop renovation kept the Vocational Agricul- ture classes busy this year. In order to comply with state standards, equipment had to be re- painted with colors designating both dangerous and safe areas. One of the classes put up the volleyball net donated by the SCA. Repairing mo- tors and learning about seed varieties were po- pular topics. Masonry students went on a field trip to Lawrenceville. Mr. Farmer's classes built two pieces of furniture which will be cherished by the school in the years to come. One of these was a pod- ium given by the junior class in memory of Dav- id Goodman; the other was a band director's stand given by the band and chorus in memory of Mr. Lamphere. 1,100 TOOTH PICKS CAN BE SCULPTED INTO A FERRIS WHEEL 78 CAN YOU THROW A BASEBALL 92 M.P.H.?

Oh-oh time brings about a change; Our wildest dreams from the start Have now come true within our hearts, On, yes because time brings about a change. We're moving on out, into the world, That mean and very harsh place; It took 2 whole lot of trying just to get out of here! Now we're out in the big world, Men and Women all of us; As long as we live, we'll remember this place and What it has done for us, for we're moving on out into the World, And Time Bhings About a Change! smb et lmf JUNIOR INGENUITY We juniors HAVE to be the most ingenious class at CHS. It's a matter of necessity. That same necessity is also the mother of invention, and we juniors have to use both. I mean, who else could persuade his or her parents that driving to school is an absolute must, the day after Ford's WIN speech! Who else could finance that need by trading in empty soda bot- tles for gas? Then there is the ever present sta- tus quo; every self-respecting junior MUST have an expensive class ring and a grand amount of class pictures to show off and trade. Last, and most important, who else could take a treasury of zero dollars and turn it into a life-long re- membered prom? What other class works together as well as we do? Face it, it takes more than five people to do all of this. We do have five people who are in charge of it all, the class officers. More about them later, but let's just say that in the junior class, for one whole year, everyone is a star! Charles Allen Lewis Anderson Sally Baldwin Debra Beard Butch Bergh Sharon Anderson Charles Austin Wallace Banton Rs We promised you more on the class of- ficers. Here they are: President--Marvin Meadows, Vice-Presi- dent--Carol Brown, Secretary--Linda Wi- ley, Treasurer--Syl- vester Lipscomb, Re- porter --Stephanie Hicks. The junior of- ficers really have work to do, and not much time to do it. They are elected at the first class meet- ing and immediately disappear behind a smoke screen of fund raising prom commit- ties and other duties. They don't really pop up as a group again until it is time to tell everyone what to do. They do not get any credit until prom night and don't get any real publicity until the year- book rolls off the press. Their hard work is not realized and applauded until it is time to start all over again.

We planned, worked, scraped, and saved to get enough money to put on the best prom Cumberland High had ever seen. Some of us had to be prodded along to pay the dues, mothers had to make things for the bake sales and bazaars, and every- where we turned we asked for money. We did it and surprisingly enough it was fun.

On any given day you will probably find several dozen cars in the parking lot, belonging to juniors. Naturally there will be a few empty soda bottles in the back to trade in for gas to get home. Juniors really shine here, too. They not only raise mon- ey for their class, they have to raise money for them- selves to buy rings. Fifty bucks for a ring ain't chick- en feed! But we do it gladly, and when it's through, fin- ished, and paid for, we look back and say, ‘Where did the time go? For one year, an entire exciting period, everybody is a star.

We managed to get through a year of teasing and being pushed around. Finally, we have an official name--Freshmen! (Wo- men's Lib has not really hit Cumberland yet.)

I thought the eighth grade was go- ing to be hard, now look at this! Most of us Freshmen stick together in our classes. They're not all that bad real- ly. English is okay. (Now what did you say a gerund was?) World Geo- graphy and World History are toler- able. (What's the name of that coun- try?) Math is the same as always. Home Ec. and Vo. Ag. are hangin' in there, and Gym class is all right. (Who threw the shoe at me?) Who knows, if we're not careful, we might learn something this year.

Most people call us munch- kins. I guess we don't really care. The first day of school is rough. We are at a new school. We don't know where to go. All of those bells keep ringing! We didn't have that many in elementary school. You get mixed up hearing all of those bells, but after a while it is normal. We do not know many people, but we eighth graders are not shy and we'll soon have lots of friends. Everybody runs to lunch, so we do too, The lunchroom is easy to find; you are strol- ling by and just happen to look to your right and find a room full of tables and chairs. What else could it be? You'll have to remem- ber that place, After a month we will be used to this place. Some people will still push us down because we are lower class people, but any- one who can make it through the embarrass- ment of the first day is a star. We're all stars.

And those who know that determined young man think if the chance arose, he would have tried again. He died as he lived--standing for what's right yet his quest did not end that sudden night; For even as now he serves to teach; His acts tell more than any minister could preach, He shows how for truth we always must strive; To live our greatest every moment we're alive. His last few moments were just as his past-- . . equnta Hig Schog He performed his best until the very last. in Der Cerarman He shows us that time cannot be a measure whether our lives be worthless or a bountiful treasure. His life was one of determination; success. Time made no difference--he surpassed his test. He serves as a model to those who are young that life can be noble when life is just begun. He stands as an example to those who are old; Maturity can come before great years unfold. Then why should we weep--cannot we now see? He left this world being more perfect than we. He lived his life well--he only lived faster and now reaps reward in abode with the Master.
