Cumberland High School Cumberland, Virginia 23040 Volume IV emcee : J=% ‘ See, Oy ea It was once predicted that Cumberland County's population would decline and that soon Cumber- land would just become a forgotten spot. Predictors based this assumption on the fact that as the young people in the county grew and married, instead of staying in the county to work and to raise their children, they moved to the city to gain excitement and to hold better jobs. Pie. a a cee ¥ ume es « é os All of a sudden Cumberland ‘began to grow. The topography took on a new dimension. There were no longer so many huge open fields. Houses and trailers sprang up over night. Swimming pools were put in. Landscaping came about, New buildings were put up. The city was moving to the country. sa Wane | Ke Mm tal- Wm oX-Xo)e) K-Wmexe) aa 1- Pam Ml al-NVAmor- Ug aK-Mn oe - Yor- 1 of = the noise and pollution.

But We Iry Harder The Dukes had a disappointing season with a final record of 0-9-1. This, however, does not tell the whole story. The offense came alive against Powhatan scoring 21 points. The defense was also strong. Led by all-district Ronnie Saunders, the Dukes were able to tie Page County in the Home- coming game. Ronnie Saunders holds onto it for a first down.

We Won One! Although ending up with a 1-6 win-loss record, the J.V. team, under the direction of Coach Cosby, put together a lot of effort and improvement as their season progressed. After losing close games to Amelia and Charlotte, these dedicated athletes played hard and well against Prince Edward to win 6 to 0! Leading the offense for the Dukes was quarterback Cleveland Johnson. Sustaining the passing game were receivers Curtis Brown, Danny Oliver, and Ivan Robinson. The defeense played consistently throughout most of the season, and players like Rufus Blanton and Tim Woodson helped keep a number of games very close and exciting. 14 J.V. Football _ J.V. Players Coming On Strong The JV Basketball team under the direction of Coach Cosby, did an outstanding job. The boys took their sand lot skills and began to employ them in one team effort. The team learned to jump, shoot, and rebound. Everyone of them improved and added finesse to their game. TOP LEFT: JV Dukes add two points to the score. TOP RIGHT: JV Dukes scramble to keep the ball.

Despite their height disadvantage, the Dukes managed to hold a 7-7 district record and 10-9 overall, placing them fourth in the James River District. Highlights of the season included the two wins over Buckingham with Jerry Wilson and Curtis Gilliam scor- ing high in double figures, and the two close games in which the Dukes managed to come from behind to defeat their arch rival, Fluvanna. The team's co-captains were Joe Brooks, Sylvester Lipscomb, and Jerry Wilson. The co-captains and Harold Carter were the only seniors and will not be returning next year. 16 Varsity Basketball — ——s« LEFT: Varsity Basketball Team--KNEELING: Ervin Boatwright, Gordon Dickerson, Thomas Brooks, Reg- gie Langhorne, Chris Reid, managers; STANDING: Coach James Johnson, Willie Allen, Joe Brooks, Ronald Williams, Daniel Robinson, Harold Carter, Curtis Gilliam, Kenneth Johnson, Sylvester Lipscomb, Abraham Langhorne, Herman Trent, Billy Trent, Jerry Wilson, BELOW: Curtis Gilliam shoots high in the air for 2 points.

Throughout the season, the Dukettes be- came an evenly balanced offensive team. At times, their defensive play would stun their opponents, and the games would almost be claimed by the Dukettes. It was certainly a rebuilding season for the girls who had the determination but lacked the necessary ex- perience to win. Above Left: Dukettes get ready for the big win!

Girls Basketball 19 Student Athletes Cited For Ability Team members on eight winter and spring sports teams were given recognition for their outstanding contributions to Cumberland's athletic program as they were feted at the annual sports banquet. The guest speaker for the program was Coach Harold Deane, head basketball coach at Virginia State College in Ettrick. In his speech he stressed the three A's at Virginia State--attitude, academics and athletics. The awards presented to CHS athletes fell into those three categories. They were cited for their attitudes to become improved players, for their scholarship and for their athletic superiority. ABOVE RIGHT: Sylvester Lipscomb is the school's Best All-Around Athlete th is year. Adrienne Gilliam was cited with the SCA Scholar Athlete Award, ABOVE: Five girls on the softball team received trophies for their excel- lence: Carolyn Jackson, Most Valuable Player; Margaret Griggs, best outfielder; Carolyn Blanton, highest batting average; Estelle Carter, Most Improved Player; and Cindy McAbee, four-year letterman. 20 Sports Banquet LEFT: Sylvester Lipscomb, Marvin Mea- dows and Ronnie Saunders all received three-year letterman awards for their participation on the boys' varsity baseball team.

Sports Banquet 21 BELOW: Sylvester Lipscomb gets a solid hit off of the opposing pitcher. Sometimes A Hit... Sometimes A Strike The Varsity Baseball team faced an odd situation this year. There was a group of seniors with experience and there was a another group with no experience. There was no one in the middle. Because of this possibly, the team did not fare so well. The inex- perienced grew, and by the end of the year they were doing well. The seniors played well, they just needed a few breaks.

Inexperience Brings Problems The girls' softball team did not do as well as ex- pected, but this was due largely to inexperience. Several times the games were very close, but because of experience the other team had the edge and moved on to victory. All of the girls gave their best, but five were recognized by the coach and the team as outstanding players. Carolyn Jackson received The Most Valuable Player award, Margaret Griggs was ‘chosen the best outfielder, Carolyn Blanton held the highest batting average, Estelle Carter was voted The Most Improved Player, and Cathy McAbee re- ceived a four-year letterman award.

Adam and Eve were por- trayed by Dale Mounce and Stephanie Hicks. Fred Lehman ruled over the play by portraying God. The play wa s set in the Garden of Eden and the fun began when Adam, who is white, discovered that Eve is black. All ended well, however, when each realized that they needed each other as a companion anda friend. The play was well received by the audiences it played to, and it won an excellent rating in the James River District play festival. OP: Fred Lehman plays the role of God in No Snakes in This Grass.

FHA Focuses On Current Problems The FHA provided exposure to many facets of life, now and efter high school. This exposure was given not only to members of the club, but also to the entire student body. There were panels on dating, drugs, and alcohol, each led by prominent members of the community. Films were shown as a prelude to these discussions, Facts about various careers as well as home life, marriage and children were ad- vanced and discussed, Turn to the back of the book for a roster of the club FHA 37 Photography Club: FIRST ROW--Teresa Patterson, Vice-President; Shelia Gilliam, President; Debbie Buchanan, Secretary; Lois Taylor, Treasurer; Mr. Meinhard, Advisor; SECOND-- Juliette Dixon; Susan Towler; Judi Stanley; Howard Fox; Sheila Morgan; LAST--Teresa Asal; Dale Mounce; Mike Hall inen; Curtis Lyons; Terri Gilliam.

Ih addition, these groups gave oranges and apples to the teachers at Christmas, sent roses to sick classmates, donated funds to the Rescue Squad, and sponsored a Valentine's Dance for their members. A day of hiking, fishing, and picnicking fulfilled their recreational needs as it contributed to making the Kee Club a well-roundea organization.

Much work goes into preparing a yearbook. There are certain expenditures that are incurred. The staff must sell ads and books to meet these. After the budget is set actual work on the finished yearbook begins, Layouts need to be drawn, copy needs to be written and pictures need to be taken. All of this is then put together by the staff and sent to the plant to be processed, Then, the final production--a yearbook, one which is hoped, mirrors the efforts of the staff. Annual Staff 43 Improvements = During the year the Future Farmers of America did a number of things to improve C.H.S. First, they “—- constructed a series of fences in order to prevent stu- dents from trampling the grass. Secondly, the F.F.A. advisor held a workshop on parliamentary procedure for all interested students. This proved to be quite beneficial to the various school organizations.

The band performed in Cumberland County's Resolutions Day, which was the county's first public celebration of the Bicentennial. The band marched in the Cumberland Christmas Parade and the Farmville Christ- mas Parade, where it received 2nd place in the marching band division. The band also journeyed to Harrisonburg to participate in the Poul- try Festival sponsored by the American Poultry Association.

Band 49 ACTIVITIES Organizations Sponsor Unusual Fund Raising Activities Thanks to the Seniors, the night of Tuesday, March 16, 1976, brought an extravagant array of fast-paced excitement with good fun. It was the night when we were nonored to have our Dukes play The California Cuties. The Cuties were Hetta Hooker, Leapin' Lena, Dumpy Dora, Back- board Betsy, Scaggie Maggie, and Rebound Ruby. Although the Dukes lost by a wide margin, every- one, even the referees, had a good time. Right: Leapin' Lena parades around the floor during halftime showing off her new dress.

The circus performed two shows, one for both the elementary and high schools and one for the general public. The air of gaiety which accompanies a circus prevaded as everyone en- joyed the clowns, elephants, and horses.

Most of the cast were novices, performing for the first time in this play. The actors had to learn how to stage, how to pick up cues and how to deliver lines well. Movement and voice con- trol played a major part in the acting since the play was written in a musical format, You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown revolves around the comic strip character and his friends. These included Snoopy, Linus, Schroeder, Lucy, and Patty. All of the cast played well and the play turned into a treat for both young and old.

The week climaxed with a pep rally. All of these activities really got the spirit up for the game and dance. By nightfall; however, spirit was literally dampened by rain. This resulted in a low attendance at the game. Although th e spectators weren't there to cheer, the Dukes were able to hold the Page County Panthers. Final score-- The dance was held on Saturday night. Fire played as everyone used up all their excess spirit on the dance floor. Attendance was much higher than expected.

Homecoming 57 You And Me Against The World The crowning of Malcolm Vannoy and Jackie Wilson as King and Queen of the Junior-Senior Prom was the climax of the annual spring dance, held May 8 in the school gymnasium. The theme was You and Me Against the World. Music was pro- vided by The Improvised Sound Band. Starting the week before the prom, excited juniors worked energetically and faithfully to get the job done. Decorations included scenes from various set- tings in countries around the world. Upon entering the gymnasium, couples crossed a bridge leading them to Japan. As they strolled, they found other scenes from France, Holland, Switzerland, Hawaii and Africa.

The seniors then broke off into the part that made their class night program unique. Skits were presented to show what the seniors remembered about their 12 years together. Carolyn Higgins did an impersonation of Edith Ann, the character Lilly Tomlin made famous, Mr. Richard Vaughan was chosen as Teacher of the Year, and the program ended with Adrienne Gilliam singing an original composition From Us With Love as the senior class key was pre- sented to the junior class. 60 Class Night LEFT: Ronnie Saunders keeps a watchful eye on the other seniors from his lofty perch in the top of the bus.

It was dark on the morning of May 15 as the sen- iors boarded the bus for Atlanta, Georgia. This was the first time in three years that the seniors had had enough ambition to raise enough money for a trip outside of Virginia. At 11:00 a.m. they pulled into the Ramada Inn. Friday afternoon was a time for ex- ploring and getting ready for their exciting weekend away from home and parents. Partying and playing started Friday night with a trip to Underground Atlanta, Afterward the pool side became the partying grounds for the seniors. Saturday the graduates-to-be went to Six Flags Over Georgia. They left Atlanta at 2:00 on Sunday to return to the ordinary life in Cumberland, Class Trip 61 ABOVE: Senator Harry F.

Byrd, Jr. was the crowning point of the graduation exercises for the 1976 class of CHS. About 1500 people gathered on the high school lawn to see the 94 seniors graduate. Class president Freda Blanton led the program off with an invocation. B.W. Robinson, as class saluta- torian, welcomed the guests to the exercises. Sherri Harrison, in her valedictory remarks, emphasized that people, including members of Cumberland's bicenten- nial class, have an obligation to be active participants toward maintaining democracy. Senator Byrd then spoke. He prefaced his well wishes to the seniors by stating his political views and encouraging young people to become involved in the government. Miss Blanton accepted the diplomas on the part of her classmates. She ended the program with a benediction. Mr. Clarence Lawson announced a number of scholarships and awards. Among them were Curtis Fox, $2800 from Richmond Newspapers, Inc.; Sherri Harris- on, $2900 from Longwood College; Dale Mounce, $103 from the David H. Goodman Scholarship Fund; and $150 each fromPeople United for Student Help (PUSH) to Harry Davenport, Sylvester Lipscomb, John Garrett, Teresa Mendez, Linda Wiley, Adrienne Gilliam and Sherri Harrison.

However, they do realize that these people are quite necessary in the everyday life at Cumberland. In such times as fights (when you're the one getting beaten up) or in such dilemmas as a bro- ken stove in the cafeteria, they come to the rescue. Over all, the student body is deeply indebted to the administration for their guidance and patience through the year. TOP: Mr. Herman Bartlett, Principal.

They hope to help the students learn that investi- gating and acquiring knowledge y = can be fun. The facts and ex- ple periences that the student ac- quires during his school years serve to help him become the competent useful person the world needs. This is the goal for which all teachers strive. MISS CINDY BARHAM Title I--Special Education eerste teed EE MR. ROBERT BRUCE Earth Science MRS, MARY ALLEN Biology, Chemistry MRS.

Students get absentee notes, books, and free lunches from office aides. The budget is kept balanced, clubs are noti- fied of their assets and deficits and a general watch is kept by the secretary on funds coming in and going out of the school.

Aides 73 74 STUDENTS 75 Spirit Of ’76 The Class of '76 really delved into the spirit which is indicative of its name. They were determined to make their last year a memorable one as they organized the class early in the fall. Officers were elected and meet- ings were held to discuss money-raising projects to fund that all-important class trip as well as to pay for grad- uation expenses. Therefore, the senior class sponsored a Christmas Dance, and later a basketball match with the California Cuties. It was difficult to decide on the des- tination of their trip, but they wanted to do something really spectacular. So, on May 14 at 12:05 a.m. a bus pulled out from CHS bound for Atlanta, Georgia and promising a fun-filled weekend for all. Upon their re- turn, they began to plan for the next special occasion-- class night. Gag gifts were purchased and skits were arranged to keep the audience rolling. Finally, there was no way to go on enjoying the spirit captured by the class. Graduation was inevitable. And so, with fond memories and a bright future, the Class of '76 left their high school days and embarked on a new venture into life.

But now they have finally become Juniors with status and, above all, organiza- tion. They have leadership, ability, and enough energy to show Cumberland High that a little organization can go a long ways.

However, many of them can- not reach into their back pockets and pull out tuition --nor do they know how to begin to apply for college admission. That is why they huddle with counselors, teachers, and college representatives to find colleges best suited for them and get scholarships appropriate to their situations. Now that takes organization! LEFT: Mrs. Isenbarger advises Robert Trent in his selection of colleges. BELOW: Margaret Griggs, George Cooke and Andrew Tyler try for their scholarships through the Voice of Democracy Contest. Juniors 93 The Ring Man Cometh Rings--pay 'em off, show 'em off! The brilliant, glistening stones encased in pure, shining, and, as yet, unscratched gold or ultrium. No Junior should be with- out a '77 class ring.

You bet it is! After being so organized and finishing taking tests, paying dues, preparing for the prom, talk- ing with counselors, and receiving rings, boredom sets in. All of the important things are in the past, and now comes the waiting for that even bigger year when all of this experience with organization can really be advan- tageous. 96 Juniors Sooner ipe eeee ee o— Well, there you have it--a complete and compact story of the hectic, yet rewarding life of the average, everyday, run-of-the-mill Junior at grand ole Cumber- land High School.

Sophomores are not really old enough to do things juniors and seniors do, nor do they feel comfortable with the younger eighth and ninth graders. The juniors and seniors are talking about driving places, going to the prom, or graduation while most sophomores are not even old enough to have a license. The eighth and ninth grades are doing things like running, yelling and teasing members of the opposite sex--things much too immature for 10th graders. Sophomores are stuck in the middle , but it can be a good feeling knowing that a lot of childish things are behind and a lot of exciting things are to come. Tenth graders Rhonda Cannan, Darryl Oliver, and Doug Mounce persue their personal activities during their free lunch period. Ervin Boatwright Thelma Booker Debbie Boyles Nathan Branch Ruth Brooks Buddy Broward Harold Brown Kathy Bruce Rhonda Canaan Laverne Clark Joey Companion Jake Copeland Fred Cosby Lewis Crews McKinley Crump Sophomores 99 When Do! Study? Sophomores have a difficult time deciding when to study and when to play. At times studying seems so dull and useless while play seems just the opposite. Sophomores often ask why they must study. If there was a resident sociologist at CHS, he would preach deferred gratification . You have to wait patiently and endure to reach a goal. The goal is not immedi- ate. School is an endurance test--sophomores must learn to endure.

Academically and socially, the point of excite- ment of the sophomore year revolves around the car. The sophomore year is the year of drivers’ education. When the car comes for behind the wheel driving , students pile into the office to sign up. Those who are lucky get to drive during the school year, some drive during the summer, and some unlucky souls have to spend the entire summer without wheels and waiting until the next time around. It is impossible to get a license or decent insurance premiums without this course and many use drivers' education as their only practice for a license. As one student said, I did not have much opportunity to drive before drivers' education, but now I can drive! ABOVE: Doug Mounce takes a break from his studies.

Lillian Simms Gwen Sims Robertson Angela Robinson 104 Sophomores Sophomores Accept High School Fads T-shirts were a big fashion accessory for sopho- mores this year. T-shirts advertising Adidas tennis shoes, Lipton tea, and Campbell's soup were preva- lent. Slogans such as Braces are Beautiful , I'm Proud to be a Farmer's Daughter , and Sweet Hones- ty were plastered on people's chests. Students could buy T-shirts already printed or have their own words printed. The T-shirts were definitely a great way for sophomores to preach their cause .

They have acquired the basic skills and knowledge in the 8th and 9th grades, they are able to refine their knowledge in the 10th and 11th grades and by the 12th grade they have become real leaders, The sophomore year is indeed both a year to look back--to call forth knowledge from past experiences and a year to look forward--to the exciting life that awaits.

Biology lab work, geometry proofs, civilization of European countries, and creative English compo- sitions all in one gust--not to mention club partici- pation and sports involvement. They've got more responsibilities and lots more work. Last year they stood in the background and took cuts left and right. But this year they're here and everybody knows it.

As the year progresses freshmen become more and more involved in sports, until the end of the year, when the ones that have excelled most are ready for varsity sports. Next year some of them will have reached varsity status, but some will remain behind to continue helping out the J.V. sports.

We've learned a lot this year, not all from our teachers, but the source isn't really important. Most of all and most important we've had a half-way decent time!

Although they were not the youngest at the school, the eighth graders, along with the seventh graders, were the newest. In any new venture there is con- fusion. This was evident in the eighth graders' ap- proach to high school life. In the confusion a strange thing emerged--study habits. Eighth graders, like everyone else, were caught in the busy routine of ordinary high school life.

They found that to pass the eighth grade it was important to know what synclines and geosynclines are, what the square root of 1,675 is, and most important of all--how to conjugate the verb to be . Some of the eighth graders adapted immediately, some adapted in a month or so, and some will still be trying to get the hang of it next year. Brenda McAbee readily adapted to high school life. 116 Eighth Graders Samuel Crump Vince Crump Barry Deaton Lisa Dickson Tim Dickson Juliette Dixon Russell Downes Brenda Drew Cindy Emerson Joe Eubank Melody Eubank Kim Fisher Andrea Ford Lowell Foster Steve Foster Cindy Fruland Dickie Fruland Charles Garrett Crystal Gilliam Keith Gilliam Terrie Gilliam Steve Glass John Goodman Terry Gray Debra Gregory Dolaine Hackney Diane Hall Rosa Hampton Linda Hazlegrove Nicki Hendricks James Henshaw Ernest Higgins Doretha Hobson Hattie Holman June Hubbard Judy Huddleston Eighth Graders 117 Cintronella Jackson Charles Jamerson Etta James Ricky James Alvin Johnson Ann Johnson Barbara Johnson Catherine Johnson Cleveland Johnson William Johnson Archey Jones Floyd Jones Richard Justice Diane Kidd Mary Langhorne Ray Langhorne Verna Langhorne Wayne Langhorne Wayne Langhorne Nathan Lee Forrest Lewis Corlisa Liggon Emma Lyle Brenda McAbee Robert McCraw Kevin Marion Jay Marion Conrad Matthews Stanley Mayo Mark Miller Barbara Moore Jim Moorefield Cynthia Morgan Jeff Morris Kelvin Nash Kim Newman 118 Eighth Graders Bart Nuckols Sandra Osborn Michael Ownby Jerry Patterson Randolph Patterson Jeff Perkins Jimmy Pickett Kathy Pleasants James Pryor Lula Pryor Avon Randolph James Randolph Priscilla Randolph Shirley Randolph Tris Redd Thomas Reed Wayne Rice Barbara Riddle Bobby Riddle Patricia Riddle Joe Robinson LaVerne Robinson Sue Robinson Cynthia Ross Finally! A Break! After half of a day's work, any- one would be ready for a break, Eighth graders took advantage of this break by socializing with friends they hadn't seen since their last class. Over their leisurely lunch, they talk- ed of the morning's events and specu- lated as to what the afternoon would bring. At the ring of the bell they bade each other good-bye and went to their next class. — sis : ‘ aid weit Students find time to socialize during their lunch period.

Now came the ride home with friends. Upon arrival at home chores such as mowing the grass, working in the garden, and taking care of livestock had to be done. It was all in a day's work, As the day came toa close, thoughts of another busy day at CHS came to mind. Freeman Wallace returns home after a hard day's work, Eighth Graders 121 The Coming Of The Munchkins Seventh graders are now here, and they're just beginning to be broken in. Lots of new classes, lots of new people, and some new teachers take a little getting used to. Even if it is a little hard on seventh graders, they still have to make a good impression on everybody, since this is the first year they've been here.

Some were good, some not so good. One good thing they did learn by observing was how to use the library for study and enjoyment. The stu- dent to the right has learned to use the library well. He now sets the example for students to follow.

They were the first seventh graders to come to the high school. Many of the seventh graders complained because they thought they had missed the most important part of elementary school, that of being the biggest, the tallest, and the strongest. When they came to the high school all hopes of this feeling were dashed, as they stared into the belt buckles of 6'5 brawn, Helenia Clark Peggy Clark Victor Clarke Jean Coleman Shawn Cook Tammy Combs William Copeland Dianne Davis Billy Dandridge Michael Davis Linda Dawson Jeanne Doane Seventh graders study diligently.

We will always remember the personable atti- tude that Chris Reid had towards everyone. 141 Memorial Dedication Dedication 142 CHS has a congenial atmosphere which is prevalent in a small school. The students have a closeness that comes from living and growing with each other since the first grade. Teachers are often from the area and know not only the students but also their parents and grandparents. At first new students that move to Cum- berland sometimes find it hard to adjust or fit into the school. This feeling of alienation, however, is soon alleviated as the older students at CHS welcome the new ones into their ranks, 143 144 f ‘ L hoe uy y LY A A 4 7 yay any J iN f KN ¢ pyey ( y hay preu, ¢ “4 “y avid f .
