A NEW LOOK . . . Traditions are important, especially in small schools, rural communities and yearbooks. Out as technology rushes forward, change is important, too. We have made some changes in this year's annual which we hope you will enjoy. We tried to run all photos larger. We used fewer posed group pictures and more candids, except in cases where coaches or sponsors strongly opposed the idea. We tried to provide your favorite teams and activities more coverage; in almost all cases their space has been expanded from one page to two. We used more captions under photos, so when you open the book 10 or 20 years in the future and your memory has dimmed, you will be able to identify the people. We added color candids to the senior section, and short articles to team and group coverage. Recognizing academic skills and knowledge as the main purpose of each school year, we gave achievers in those areas the same coverage as clubs and teams. Spelling bee, science fair, essay and debate competition are covered for the first time. Finally, we gave you a fable of contents to help you more quickly find your favorite person or group as you return to the book again and again. There were other changes we would have liked to have mode, and not every thing we did worked as well as we would have preferred. Next year's staff can try to improve on our work just as we tried to improve on last year's. And if they continue some of the ideas introduced in this book, those ideas will someday become traditions, too. All things considered, we enjoyed working on the 1983 Devil and are pleased with the finished product. We hope you agree. (Photos from top to bottom) 1. EdItor-in-Chief Gwen Ptott. 2.

THE WAY WE WERE . .. Every school yeor is different, ond 82-80 certoinly contoined its shore of unique experiences. All the othlefic cooches were new. Potti Price reploced T. Ross Moore in administration. Charles Adams replaced long time Ag teacher 6. T. Harding. Vicki Morgan become librarian. Dan Omlor returned for a year to direct publications, teach English and coach debate. Jeannie Meacham left her CETA duties for junior high math and science. Ed Lowdenback struggled to bring Deming into the computer age, and the annua! senior trip added a Bermuda cruise. Mrs. Davis welcomed a new baby and longtime custodian Jim Morgan suffered a heart attack, although he was able to return to work by May. The seventh grade girls dominated the intramural basketball tournament. Junior high English classes added current films E.T. and Something Wicked to their literary studies. An unusually mild winter caused few days missed from school, but a March flu epidemic shut it down for a week. And UK basketball coach Joe Hall spoke at a Deming pep rally.
