Did you ever ask yourself why the band blared ‘‘Dixie” in the rain at 7:30 in the morning, or thought about the people who gave up watching Charlie’s Angels and Mash for two weeks to build the winning FCA float? When we slaughtered the Tucker Tigers did you consider all the exhausting touchdrills and sore muscles it took to overcome our rivals? Don’t overlook the unseen work that has gone into producing the finished product. Expose yourself to the little that have gone unnoticed — the things that have made Freeman what it really is.

Look beyond the hard, brick walls, beyond the tests and headaches; beyond the cheers and victories. Look at the people, the hard-working enthusiastic people who sacrificed their own time to make Freeman what it was. Time. Though there never seemed to be enough of it, we made the time when the need arose. We could have spent our leisure hours going to the movies, picnicking in Byrd Park, or sleeping late on Saturdays but we didn’t. We donated our time Striving “fore” perfection. Shadowed by the afternoon sun, senior Jeff McKenna concentrates on his backswing during an afternoon golf practice at Canterbury Lake. to school and community projects such as fundraising for the homecoming dance and James River Raft race. The end results made all the extra work and effort seem worthwhile. There were setbacks, but we kept on trying.

It was a growing experience intellectually, socially, and personally. Every day we were faced by challenges such as giving oral reports and writing computer programs. Aside from studying facts ‘and figures, we learned the importance of cooperation in extracurricular activities. Individually we developed self- expression through art, sports, and class participation. We probed beneath the surface of Freeman and sought its remote, unfamiliar aspects. Through exposure, we discovered the total picture. Easy does it. Senior Bobby Rhett completes a silk screen poster for the educator subscription drive. Opening 5 EXPOSURE hs, ERA i OE Taking a break.

You headed towards lunch knowing you had a test to study for, and you found yourself in the middle of a frisbee game on the front lawn. There you were— torn between two worlds, the academic and the social. Like undercover agents, Rebs led double lives. Sounds of friendly chatter evaporated as you slipped into class. For one period you became a student relating to such greats as Aristotle, George Washington, and Einstein. With a constant interaction between teacher and student, the period passed, occasionally boring, sometimes frustrating, but mostly rewarding though not always admitted. Leaving class, the social side returned. Once again, your life was your own to be spent as you pleased. However, the two lives were inseparable. Whether in class,in the halls, or on your own the ‘double images” fused into one. Double Exposure 7 Energetic pause.

Mass profusions of gold and red leaves rapidly lost appeal as their steady drift to the ground encouraged parents to spur their children to do away with the menacing pests. Sore muscles were soon forgotten as the referee’s whistle initiated the opening kickoff and a Friday evening of sports and parties. Football season had arrived. As colder weather enveloped the area, Rebs dug out heavy coats and bulky sweaters before venturing out of doors. Scarves and mittens lent a festive air to skaters at Ice Unlimited. Later, a cup of hot chocolate around the fire soothed aching extremities. Movies remained a favorite past time for couples as Saturday night arrived. Some attended an early showing of stock pictures such as Marathon Man and Carrie while others opted to wait for the midnight movie, making for a late evening and angry parents. Those unable to afford the big screen took refuge in Regency Square, window shopping or munching a hot pretzel and sipping a coke. Fearsome fistful.

Mark Steinhoff, the SCA president, extended a cordial welcome by informing listeners what to expect in the months ahead. Following introductions of the administration and SCA officers, eight seniors representing social and athletic aspects of Freeman spoke briefly. Afterwards, SCA Big Brothers and Sisters conducted perplexed young Rebels on a tour through the puzzling maze of halls. As one Big Sister, senior Leslie Sinclair, commented, ‘The program made the students feel like a real part of Freeman, along with alleviating the lost feelings that come with the first day.” The SCA council chose seventy-five seniors for Big Brothers and Sisters, designating hall monitors and pairs to work in homerooms. Opening day found confused new- comers frantically searching for room numbers. Hasty conversations about selected classes and schedul- “(can top that!” Amusing sophomores with tales of their first days at Freeman, Big Sisters Joy Via and Gail LeRoy attempt to calm shakey nerves, 14 Orientation ing dilemmas provided the opportunity to reaffirm old friendships. Agreeing with Mr. Anthony’s feelings that the first day ran.smoothly, one freshman added that ‘it was scary, but | enjoyed seeing all of my friends again.” Similar feelings were experienced also by teachers, who spent hours preparing classrooms and lesson plans. Using participation as his theme, Mark Steinhoff began the first assembly welcoming both new students and returning students to Freeman. Mark expressed his desire for every person to become involved by reminding them that ‘‘the key word that success depends upon is cooperation.” First-day pandemonium continued after school as panicky Rebs scurried up and down the ramp, locating misplaced buses. Overflowing conditions caused lines to form at the parking lot exits, while close-living Freemanites learned that walking was much more convenient, and quicker. Follow-the-leaders.

In preparation for a sleigh ride at the Country Club of Virginia, senior Bruce Carlton waxes his sled runners. “Think snow” passed through the minds of students and teachers alike as storm clouds gathered and temperatures dropped. Hopes of venturing to nearby mountain resorts such as Massanutten and Wintergreen to ‘conquer the slopes”’ reached a peak as the flakes began to fall fast and furious. With Richmond experiencing its coldest winter in years, Rebels recalled childhood games. As the ground became covered with a blanket of snow, ice-skates and sleds were retrieved from storage and put to use. Frozen lakes attracted leisurely skaters as well as hockey enthusiasts who utilized the benefits of Arctic air for extra practice time. Those preferring a warmer climate relied on indoor rinks, bowling alleys, and indoor tennis courts to test their skills. As the result of snow storms accumulated, neighborhoods acquired extra character from lop- sided snowmen and deserted snowforts. With snowballs flying and sleds racing, young and old alike took advantage of the harsh weather to enjoy a little old-fashioned fun and games. Fireside chat.

As president of the Tuckahoe Lion’s Club, Mr. Bruce Watson helped to improve the quality of life for many visually handicapped by organizing and implementing fund-raising projects for the Richmond Eye Bank and related organizations. Further community involvement stemmed from his association with the Tuckahoe YMCA, serving as both a coach and a member of the board of directors. Also active in the Lion’s Club until work on his master’s degree forced him to resign, Mr. T. Moore revitalized Freeman’s Industrial Arts Department. Although much of his time was dedicated to upgrade the school’s woodworking program, he managed to pursue a number of activities on his own. Besides chopping firewood and constructing cabinets, Mr. Moore exercised his carpentry skills by building a log cabin where he soon hopes to take up residence. This cottage was the third such home that he has erected; eventaully, it will house a fully equipped workshop to facilitate the pursuit of his many interests. Back to the drawing board.

FREDERICK: | shall neither waffle nor mince words as my honorable colleague has done. The German course surpasses excellence. During one’s first three years, a - great deal of time is devoted to grammar and vocabulary in preparation for extensive reading. Few people realize the difficulty of the German language. MODERATOR: According to the , pre-arranged rules, we agreed that statements would be specific and succinct. | caution you both to stay within the twenty-second time limit. Now, Caesar, please continue. CAESAR: As the Latin student strengthens his vocabulary, he becomes aquainted with other Latin authors such as Cicero, Ovid, and Virgil. A strong emphasis is placed on grammar, mythology, and history. As an added bonus, the scholars are taken out to dinner. MODERATOR: Your response, Frederick.

Phrases such as “We need a man like Carter!”” screamed at me from the bathroom walls, but their authors disappeared in the swarms of avid “Jerry” fans. Election night revealed a Carter population that Freeman had not believed existed. Both candidates fought a long and hard battle over the electoral votes needed.

Byrd, Jr. and David Satterfield were re-elected to the Senate and House of Representa- tives respectively. — By 3:30 a.m., my eyelids positively refused to stay propped open any longer, and my vision had become so blurred it was impossible to read the election returns. But the funeral atmosphere at school the next day left no doubt as to the results.

Mrs. Brasfield taught four classes of English and one of Pre-Algebra to students with learning disabilities. According to her, the kids were not much different from other sutdents; many were brighter, but merely had © different learning styles. In addition to her teaching and work at Ch. 23, Mrs. Brasfield belonged to several professional organizations including the Executive Board of The Learning Disabilites Council, the Richmond Area Association for Children with Learning Disabilities (RAACLD) and the Council of Exceptional Children. For recreation, Mrs. Brasfield turned to backpacking, often with amusing results. While hiking in the Yosemite Valley with seven others, unwelcomed brown bears stole all but three people’s food. The eight were forced to live on food for three ‘anda bite of the only trout we caught” for five days. On another trip to Continental Divide, she left her down jacket a quarter mile from the top.

A fever of excitement seized the school with the approach of fall’s grandest event — Homecoming, the climax of days of preparation and mandatory meetings. While the Varsity cheerleading squad arranged the voting for Homecoming Queen and Maid of Honor, individual clubs and societies held the responsibility of electing their own princesses and of finding suitable slogans for their floats. Using the phrase ‘“We’re gonna winnie so pooh on you,” the FCA’s flowery entry depicting Winnie the Pooh and his “hunny” jar took first prize. Choosing a more exotic slogan, the Senior Class float’s “Voodo the Vikings’’ theme captured third place for its portrayal of a Viking in a steaming pot. Tension mounted during half-time as forty nervous princesses, complete with corsages and banners, crowded onto the field. Shrieks and applause accompanied the announcement of Junior Class princess Susan Balch as Maid of Honor and Dot Suter, one of six senior princesses, as ‘‘queen” for the night. The Freeman combination of work and spirit did not go to waste, for the evening climaxed with the Rebels’ decisive victory over T.J. Vikings by a score of 21-7. Cloud nine.

Combining two gym classes, Miss Rawls shouts directions over the recorded music as sophomores dance the patty-cake polka. Whether outwardly visible or not, a triumphant smile formed on most sophomore girls’ faces as they entered their last year of gym. The smiles faded, however, as they caught a glimpse of the same old uniforms. Although the choices were many, everything from ping pong to basketball, they found themselves losing their enthusiasm. Golf and archery proved welcome alternatives to the 50-yard dash and shuttle-run, but often kept their participants searching for overshot balls and arrows. Shooting for a point looked easy when the varsity basketball players demonstrated it, but after endless drills the girls found that shooting and dribbling were not as effortless as they seemed. Twisting their bodies into pretzel-like positions, students took part in the demanding but popular gymnastics program. As winter approached, frost-bitten Rebels dressed in record time. Spring thaws encouraged hit and run players on the softball fields as well as the tennis courts. Leaping in the air, girls tried to clear a four foot high pole or gain a longer distance in the longjump. Rebels straining to touch their toes or dash through the last lap in the 600-yard walk-run completed the last of the rigorous exercises for the President’s award.

Prepared for cooler inside temperatures and freezing weather, senior Hal Scott gathers wood for a fire. Building a snowman was one thing — being one was another! Once that school thermostat dropped to 65 degrees, icicles seemed to form on the radiators. Frostbitten Rebels bundled up each morning in caps, parkas, and mittens — then kept them on for warmth all day. Going home to warm up became a memory as residencies were asked to lower the heat to 55 degrees at night to conserve fuel. “The coldest winter since 1917” froze even the mighty Mississippi River and eventually created a gas and oil shortage, resulting in President Carter’s proposal to ration natural gas. In response, Governor Godwin requested a forty-hour maximum operating week for all stores and businesses and declared Virginia in a “state of emergency.” Part-time labor felt the bite as fast- food services and restaurants cut sharply into store hours, while Freemanites working at Regency fought to maintain a reasonable paycheck despite early closings. Skyrocketing prices on citrus fruits reflected a massive loss of crops in Florida, where unexpected freezes and snow wreaked financial havoc. In contrast, Arctic temperatures climbed far above normal. Not only were the meteorologists confused, but the bewildered polar bears even lost their instinct to hibernate! All wrapped up. With school temperatures turned down to sixty-five degrees, seniors in Miss Pilkinton’s English class bundle up for the chilly weather. Energy Crisis 43 44 Business Alphabet Blues.

Through banking practices and stock market surveys, Business Economics students struggled to understand their role as consumers amid the soaring prices of the seventies. The class consisted of twenty pupils, mainly boys, who eagerly prepared for future business situations. In Business Law, students examined law and business transactions and applied them to everyday living. Studious classmen grew more aware of their part in the economy while gaining valuable business experience. Enrolled for a full year in Clerk Typist Il and Stenography II classes, more industrious students acquired part-time jobs and triple credits by means of the Cooperative Office Education program.

Rehearsing for upcoming auditions, seniors Robert Kindle, Fred King, and Debbi Brown review their lines for Bartlett’s Dictionary of Familiar Quotations: Book I The Reincarnation of Peter Pan Contrary to popular belief, February was not the shortest month of the year. At least, it didn’t seem to be. Amid term papers, tests, and the piles of work that habitually arrived with second semester, interested students squeezed Stunt-Talent Night auditions into their overloaded schedules. The twenty top-rated acts, judged by a student committee, were chosen to participate in the amateur evening of entertainment. Following Wendy, John, and Michael to Never-Never Land, the audience encountered all their favorite characters from Peter Pan. Commenting on the theme, Junior Sharon Kane stated, “A lot can be done with it, and because there are more parts, more people can be involved.”’ Behind the scenes, but equally important, patient backstage crews struggled with script-writing, costume-designing and set construction.

Placing vanity before comfort, early risers struggled into warm-up Suits for a quick jog around the block in sub-zero temperatures. Health spas and figure salons attracted others to their more regimented body control programs. Carrot sticks, celery, and salads became low-calorie substitutes for fattening hot lunches as ironwilled dieters began their quest for slenderness. Restraining themselves from the temptations of candy bars and hot-fudge sundaes, the faithful discovered their rewards in smoother-fitting outfits and in their friends’ envious expressions. Nor were faces neglected as figures improved. Concentrating on the “clean is sexy” look, many girls forfeited allowances and paychecks in search of flattering cosmetics. The last mile. Taking advantage of some free time, Junior Sharon Kane picks a deserted road to jog away the tensions of a hectic day. An eyeful.

It is the society’s desire to recognize in an excitingly satirical manner those students who were extroverted enough to work under the lights and industrious enough to work backstage. Recapitulating the memorable events of the year, two original plays “One” and “Lothar’’, were presented in November. The senior class sponsored the two one-acts. “One” was a tragi-comedy portraying a man’s life from birth to mental breakdown. “Lothar”, a slapstick musical based on the story ‘The Emperor’s New Clothes” also served as the competition play for the Virginia Drama Festival. Both were well-received by the audience. Auditions in the form of animal pantomimes preceded the selection of characters for the spring show, “Story Theatre’. Weeks of rehearsing resulted in the production of a conglomeration of favorite fairy tales. Two fer one. In scenes from “One,” senior J. G.

Heads still ringing from the facts and figures memorized for exams, graduates and underclassmen flooded nearby Virginia Beach for a speedy recuperation. A few days spent catching the rays and watching the endless parade of girls and guys leisurely strolling the shoreline were enough to heal even the most frazzed nerves. With night came the dancing and parties as friends got together to celebrate their lack of academic pressures. The brief months seemed to fly, each week bringing a new adventure. Our nation’s Bicentennial resulted in a day of concerts, festivals, and parties, despite the damp drizzle. Millions stayed glued to the “tube” as Montreal, Canada hosted the 21st Olympic Games.

Deafening roars from the stands and the echo of stomping feet filled the gym as the senior class rose simultaneously, applauding its president on to receive the spirit stick. Brent Finch accepted the award easily, obviously well- accustomed to the act. During the pep rallies, senior spirit overpowered underclassmen with a few rare exceptions. The football team’s great improvement initiated a larger attendance which continued throughout the season. “Beer of the Week” signs were boosted high to designate the graduating class’ section, while a huge Confederate flag waved briskly the juniors’ enthusiasm rivalling the seniors’.

Although they met twice monthly to discuss the health field, attendants also enjoyed diversions of camping trips and other outings. Candy stripers, known officially as bonnies, volunteered their services at area hospitals. Helping by delivering flowers and lending assistance in the halls, the girls cheered up patients and staff alike. The sounds of creaking rockers led bewildered shoppers into Sears and Roebuck as members of the Teen Council participated in a Rock- a-Thon to raise money for Crippled Children’s Hospital.

Question: What do Alcoholics Anonymous, the Police Department, and the Diagnostic Center all have in common? Answer: Students from Mrs. Shirley Owings’ Sociology classes were spotted at each place. Community involvement enabled Sociology students to gather firsthand information on behavioral trends in the Richmond area. By studying people and their ways of life, students gathered valuable insight into differing human relationships. Diverse interests shown by students while studying the community presented a wide range of ideas for panel discussions, debates, and role playing concerning human behavior. “Learning about yourself and how you relate with others is of utmost importance,” commented Mrs. Shirley Owings. Believing that Psychology students “learn by seeing’, Mr. David Cover offered experiments involving telepathy and trips to a mental hospital and a school for the retarded, Mrs. Anne Mathews, a guest speaker recognized for her powers of Extrasensory Perception, visited Freeman displaying her unique ability. Two students, Martha McGraw and Katy Penley, consistently showed amazing psychic abilities while repeatedly “beating the odds” in telepathic experiments. These demonstrations were used to make classes aware of the unknown, “Learning becomes easier,”’ claimed Mr. Cover, “when students use experiments to ‘see’ Psychology firsthand.” What is death? What does it mean to be a human being? Questions such as these confronted students enrolled in Humanities. Presenting dilemmas of this nature, Miss Pat Pilkinton stimulated the interest shown by students in themselves and the world around them. Discussions focused on the Bible, numerous hilosophers, and great works of iterature helped students to understand where they stood in the world, Field trips to different points of interest reinforced the knowledge acquired during discussions.

Ba ck in those days, leather jackets like his were “in’’ with the guys, while the stylish look for girls meant droopy bobby socks and long straight skirts. Rough spots and tangerine lipstick bright enough to warn approaching vehicles perfectly complemented their outfits— hairdos consisted of ponytails pulled back so hard the girls squinted. The slick D.A.s or nubby crewcuts were preferred by the boys, since these fashions didn’t interfere with wild “jitterbugging”’ and “‘twisting.’”” Rock stars such as Bobby Darin, the Ink Spots, Chubby Checker, and Elvis Presley melted the hearts of adoring females with their celebrated recordings until . . . “She loves you— yeah, yeah, yeah ...”” The Sixties roared in with the hits of the Beatles, the most popular group in rock music’s history.

Within the confines of the chatter-filled artroom, students designed attractive ornaments for their friends and themselves. ‘‘It is one of the few classes | really enjoy,’ stated senior Leslie Borman. Three-dimensional creations evolved as sculpture students worked with wood, plaster and other plyable materials. Advanced drawing offered a chance for young Uy Rebel artists to improve their sketching techniques. Assisted by models, students learned to reproduce objects as they perceived them. According to art teacher Miss Rita D’Amico, art is one of the few classes that offers visual self-expression. She also feels that it is a very unique experience and should be mandatory. t le). gg ee es ‘Pen in hand.

To principal Richard Anthony, nine months a year at Freeman may have seemed just an extended stopover from his travels. Casting aside his school burdens each June, the principal prepared for 3500 miles of adventure. The summer’s schedule included a week-long venture to Nags Head, North Carolina, highlighted by an all-day fishing and crabbing expedition. Travelling west to dryer land, Mr. Anthony delighted in hunting deer and rabbits in Cumberland County. When the time came to take a break ot his bus, from his travels, the principal relaxed by working with carpentry. Mr. Anthony commented, “I have made over half the furniture in my house.” . January brought plans for an eventful New Year. Time out from the office carried Mr. Anthony through thirty-nine states and four provinces of Canad a. Reminiscing over his recent excursions, Mr. Anthony commented, “These experiences, to me, are well worth remembering.” He and his wife hoped to continue their travels even while their sons attended college.

The finished product resembled a large bag of M M’s and portrayed the hopeful victory theme “Rebs Got the Munchies.” While the Pep Club worked behind the scenes to boost morale, the spirited tempo of the Pep Band echoed clearly amid the excitement and cheers at home basketball games. The band’s twenty selected members generally performed marching band music, but had to limit their maneuvers to a single section of bleachers when Freeman played host during the basketball season.

Each player maintained a score under eighty, with seventy to seventy three as par, depending on the condition of the course. Daylight savings time proved to be a welcome relief to team members after its arrival on the first of May. Before that time, matches were limited to twelve holes due to lack of sufficient light. Following the time switch, full games of eighteen holes were possible. Daily practices of nine holes helped polish games, leading to a 12-5 season. The long drives and powerful shots of senior Mark England, juniors Drew Edwards and Jeff McKenna, and sophomore Rick Amidon led the Rebs to a second place standing in the Colonial District, led only by Henrico.

In fact, one group had donated eighty- seven dollars to the Salvation Army Shoe Fund by collecting money during lunches at school and carolling around neighborhoods. The most dire threat this club had ever posed was their Homecoming _prediction that the Rebels would “Smash the Vikings.’” Meanwhile, the other group had deviously slipped away to attend a statewide convention in Norfolk, where they participated in tests, siminars, and written contests. An elite few proceeded to the Certamen and answered questions pertaining to Latin.

WON 7 LOST 2 Hefty and headstrong — the marks of the varsity and junior varsity wrestling teams. Unity pervaded the squads as the grapplers rallied together for support. The “togetherness” paid off as an early victory over St. Christopher’s started a long winning streak. Led by tri-captains Brian Woodworth, Marty Campbell, and Chris Duresky, the boys overcame tough opposition. Tucker’s defeat by a score of 39 to 31 may have stemmed from the combined experience of the team’s members, nine of whom were returning lettermen. Nor did the junior varsity lack for successful wrestlers. Directed by Coach Ken Moore, the team overwhelmingly took the Colonial District Tournament. Coach Moore based participation on the principle that ‘‘we try and let everyone wrestle as much as they can.”’ The inspiration behind their winnings may easily have been provided by the wrestlers’ cheering squad, the Grapplettes. Headed by Debbie Duncan and Susan Hatz, the girls acted as secret pals before each match, planting candy and good luck cards in the team members’ lockers. The group of twelve donated painted signs, moral support, and oranges for energy at each meet. The duties of scorekeeping, announcing, and cheering on the floor were shared by the entire squad.

The astro-turf of City Stadium welcomed the Rebels as the home game against Lee-Davis was rained out. Nevertheless, it failed to deter quarterback Don Howren who threw scoring passes of 10 and 31 yards. Benedictine was stunned by our defense, as senior Randy Milligan intercepted two passes, running them for touchdowns. Team effort led the Rebels to score more points against the Regional champions, Highland Springs, than scored against them all season. Although leading at half-time, the Rebels failed to hault the Springer offense in the second half, and lost 20-29.

Varsity Football 117 New flreams Downfall marks the beginning Rebel defeat against H football players come i the ground. Confusion characterized the football season for the student body as both a ninth grade and “B” team carried the pigskin for the Rebels. Spurred on by their own cheerleading squad and two new coaches, Coaches Jack Richmond and Dave Wilson, the ninth grade football team called Freeman home, rather than Byrd. Although starting the season with a 6-0 loss to Highland Springs, the young Rebels went on to win the remainder of their games, compiling a 5-1 record. Sacrificing their afternoons for practice and their Saturdays for games, the ‘’B’’ team made their debut. Selected from Varsity squad members not utilized during Friday night games, the players contested “B’’ teams formed at other area schools. Beginning the season on a happy note, the newcomers won their first game against George Wythe, a shutout of 20-0. Spirits fell, however, as the team suffered a 21-12 loss at the hands of Henrico. The baby Rebs fought back and proved the victors in their next three games, ending with a 4-1 record. 9TH GRADE FOOTBALL Front row: Tommy Dean, Chris Babb, Steve Jones, David Wilbourne, Chip Buff, Matt McGhee, Bubba Weis, Tommy Ranson, Jet Thomas, Stuart Rosen, Kay Lyles.

Steve Ownby gasps his way towards the finish line at an October cross country meet against Tucker. “Over the river and through the woods, the cross country team did go.’ After months of exhausting practices, the runners paced themselves for grueling three mile races, covering everything from hills to flat terrain. Despite the beliefs of much of the student body, the cross country team’s season began long before September. Most team members ran all winter to keep in shape, while those who didn’t began diligently in June. The eight mile course at the University of Richmond challenged determined trekkers, while others opted to venture around the Freeman perimeter, a shorter jaunt. Practices averaged five miles per runner. The runners encountered disappointments during the season in losing to Highland Springs 19-38 and by missing state by 12 points. However, their 4-4 season placed them second in.the district and fifth in the region, to the delight of novice coach Ken Barbour, who felt his goal of placing well was achieved. Further glory came with the appointment of seniors Eddie Glass and Peter Ruggles and junior Mark Inman to the all-district. Peter was also chosen as all-region adding to his honors. 124 Cross Country i district CROSS COUNTRY DSF OPP 19 Highland Springs 38 30 Henrico 25 38 Hermitage 18 28 Tucker 27 31 St. Christopher’s 25 als Huguenot 49 16 Patrick Henry 47 26 Lee Davis 33 WON 4 LOST 4 Last stretch.

Positive Attitude: To the ninth grade boys’ basketball team, this meant competence, not overconfidence. Their coach believed his group’s optimism became a primary factor in its SUCCESS. Example: victory over Varina, 58-44. Unity: ‘They worked together as a team, not as individuals,’”” recalled Coach Walker. Cooperation existed among the members, and squad loyalty molded friendships. Example: victory over Tucker, 50-47. Perseverance: Switching from a junior high team to that of a senior high presented early difficulties in adjustment to the freshman team. The loss of two players, as a result of broken arms, further increased the tension. But constant practices eased the frustrations, and by mid-season, the youngest Rebels had proven their ability as a top-notch basketball team. Example: victory over Benedictine, 45-43. Ninth Grade Basketball 133 Winter Freeze Injuries, bad weather, and a lack of support hampered the Varsity Basketball team as it started the year at a slow pace. Disappointing overtime losses to Hermitage, 81-87, and George Wythe, 58-59, resulted in part from a weakened defensive. However, shooting was strong, with a 45% accuracy from the floor. A pre-Christmas wrist injury to senior Jimmy Brown placed senior Mark Steinhoff on the starting lineup. The year saw outstanding performances by Malcolm Buran, who averaged in double figures, and Bryan Maddox, whose inside offensive plays were described as the best in the district. A strong effort in district games led to wins over rival Tucker, 47-45, and Highland Springs, 63-60. Exceedingly cold weather caused a drop in attendance at several games, leaving the team without its accustomed student support.

Rehabilitation was the key work for the Chess Club, as it retired from competition with other schools for the year.

Students saw their names ‘in letters’’ due to the efforts of NHS members who posted names in the Honor Roll board. Working with the Honor Council, the students sought to develop a stronger Honor Code. Senior Robin Moore said, ‘Cleaning up around school isn’t that much work, because you enjoy it and know that it is really rewarding.” Publication staff members found their efforts rewarded by being tapped into Quill and Scroll in the spring. The hours of laboring over light tables, copy, and typewriters seemed a little more worthwhile as they entered the membership of this honor society.

Daily after-school practices in the gym polished routines and provided time for the girls to learn new stunts for the upcoming District Tournament. Despite the rigorous practices, the times just before meets were the hardest for the girls. By getting to know members of their opposing teams, the team strove to relax before competition began. ““When we’re at a meet, we’re uptight and nervous, but we make it a point to be the friendliest team in the district, commented senior Lynn Atkins. The hard work and frustrations paid off as the girls started off the season with two consecutive wins over Lee-Davis and Tucker. However, the third meet proved too much, as Henrico defeated Freeman by under three points.

The day arrived, and your class was ushered in and seated before what appeared to be a formidable panel of judges, the current society members.

Working laboriously for their 10-4 record, the gloved girls placed second in district competition. Stressing the benefits of team unity, outfielder Jill Hannay commented, ‘‘one of the reasons for our successful year was the fact that we all got along together well.’”” A sprained ankle, and the graduation of one player were the only casualties suffered by the team.

DECA member Joni Montalbano looks after an ear-clipped friend at the Hilliard Road Veterinary Hospital. Meeting every Thursday morning, DECA members planned each month’s activities. The holiday season saw members ‘‘adopt” a needy family, taking them Christmas shopping and treating them to presents and Christmas dinner. The club bought a full set of clothes for the family’s four children. Taking some time off for themselves, members spent a weekend at the river in Deltaville, and also met with DECA students from other schools for picnicing and games. President April Auth felt that ‘DECA’s concern for others is what made it outstanding.”’ Like DECA, VICA members spent time establishing friendships with underprivileged children in the city.

Hampered by inclimate weather, members of the soccer team strove to maintain their sanity as sub-zero weather left snow on the ground for several weeks, forcing the re- scheduling of numerous matches. When a later thaw arrived, bringing muddy fields, play resumed, with only the encounter against Highland Springs scratched permanently. Exhaustion set in as three games were played in a single week to make up for lost time. The severe weather conditions and a lack of student support, failed to break the team’s spirit, as it raced to a 9-1-5 season. Impressive shutout wins of 4-0 and 6-0 over Henrico and 2-0 over Patrick Henry proved long hours of drills and scrimmages to be worthwhile. Archrival Tucker maintained its inability to defeat the Rebels as we tied the first game 3-3 and won the season’s second confrontation 2-1. Senior goalie Jim Hanner’s eight shutouts came within two of the state’s record of ten in one season. Finishing first in the District, first in the U.S.L. Division and third in the State, team members approached the _ Regional Tournament in good spirits. Senior forward, Chip Wirth commented, “The reason for our success was a concentrated team effort.

Some days there seemed to be just too many students at Freeman; such as the morning you drove to school and found the parking lot already full or when you had to stand in the lunchline so long that you were late to your next class. Classrooms and halls crowded as new freshmen and sophomores joined the Rebel caravan, pushing the student enrollment over 1,800. People, everywhere you looked there were multitudes of people. But each student was different, an individual offering something unique and exciting to the school or friends from flying planes to acting.

At your age?” Although the average person might have had doubts, scouting remained a popular pastime among high school students. At weekly Boy Scout meetings featuring movies and speakers, the members of Troop 745 prepared for hiking, canoeing, and camping excursions. “Il wouldn't trade my scouting experiences for anything,” declared senior Chuck Mcintyre, an Eagle Scout. Scout troops also participated in the Republican rally for President Ford as an honor guard. Girl Scouting activities varied as widely as the troops themselves. Junior Becky Yeary recalled the pleasure of arranging fruit baskets for the Little Sisters of the Poor at Thanksgiving, while seniors Joyce Miles and Elise McCarty of Troop 144 remarked that ‘‘the emphasis was on services to others.” Spelunking, anyone?

Sponsored by the American Field Service, Monica spent her three vacation months with a Finnish family in the town of Turku on the Baltic Sea. While staying in Finland, Monica witnessed midsummer the longest day of the year. During midsummer, the sun dipped behind the horizon and quickly rose again. Later, accompanied by her family relatives, she journeyed to Sweden and the Lap Lands of Norway and Finland for sightseeing. Monica experienced some difficulty in adjusting to a lifestyle where differences ranged from eating raw fish to watching two- channel nighttime television. Despite the changes, Monica commented, ‘I learned more about myself and my capabilities. Reminders of her visit returned with Monica in the form of matching reindeer shoes, mittens, and a pocketbook — fashions conspicuous in Freeman’s conformist halls. Also treasured was a spacesilver ring presented to Monica by her host family at the end of her stay. How did she feel about the outcome of her trip to Finland?

Actually, to rising seniors Cheryl Wilcox, Laury Goolsby, and Jody Bambacus, acquiring new “‘citizenship” meant traveling to Longwood College to attend the American Legion- sponsored Girls’ State. There, each girl became a “citizen” in one of twelve fictional cities and was exposed for one week to governmental procedures. At Lynchburg College, Boys’s State painted a similar political picture, “so real it was discouraging,” according to rising senior Robert Kindle. Joined by fellow classman Brent Finch, he attended the lectures of several speakers, including Representative Henry Howell, and Senator Joseph Canada; the girls at Longwood were similarly addressed by Lieutenant Governor John Dalton and Senator Harry Byrd. _ “Meeting new people and just being there ... it was really great!” Senior Robin Moore was excited to have been one of the lucky Rebels chosen to attend the Governors School for the Gifted for one month _ over summer vacation. Mary Baldwin College lured her to an extensive study of Political Science, but other courses, such as Senior Lifesaving, filled her hours. To Robin, Governor’s School ‘‘wasn’t even like school.” Senior Dorothy Schmidt chose Randolph-Macon College for her Governor’s School activities.

There they brushed up on the fundamentals of archery while eagerly awaiting the arrival of hunting season. Both were experienced marksmen with years of practice. But, unlike most hunters, Gregg and Bill shot with bows and arrows instead of guns. This technique presented a greater challenge to them than shooting with guns. Gregg claimed that hunting proved more rigorous and physically-demanding when combined with the skills of archery. Despite frustrating misses and disappearing arrows, the boys’ efforts were rewarded with turkeys as well as deer. Edward Shawn Guice Anna Marie Guthrie FBLA; FHA.

Data dreamer? If any of the above fit your needs, you should have joined the stampede for the Hermitage Vocational Education Program. Senior Roberta Grandstaff, a participant in the nursing course, embarked each morning for Hermitage High School and her two and a half hour class. Other seniors travelled the route during lunch to receive instruction in such areas as drafting, printing, cosmetology, auto mechanics, date processing and horticulture. The concept of actual _job training without the cost of a post-graduation technical school appealed to many students. Extra experience was gained through part- time labor in related institutions, including hospitals, engineering firms and computer services. Despite its advantages, the Vocational Program also had a number of drawbacks. One senior commentated that when she returned to Freeman in the afternoon ‘all my friends had gone home.” Others felt left out because they missed morning an- nouncements; an attempt at petitioning for a weekly newsletter failed. Regardless of distance, _ however, school spirit remained a part of commuting Rebels’ lives. _ Sarah Hazelgrove - Judith Lynn Heflin Chamber Ensemble; Class Coun- cil; Commentator Business Staff; Downbeats; Girls’ Ensemble; Historian Business, Literary Staff, Sports Editor; JCL; Medical Arts Club; SCA Council; Stunt Talent Night; Tories.

A Saturday Morning Explorer program at the Math Science Center initiated Billy’s interest in model rocketry, and he later joined the Vikings Rocketry Club. After five years of active membership, Billy rose to the office of club president. The organization’s major functions included bi-montly meetings, the publication of a newsletter, and trips to rocketry competitions along the East Coast. Time and precision yielded prize- winning rocket and glider flights. Billy accumulated numerous awards and set a world record in a glider flight contest. Although mechanical ability proved essential, the hobby also demanded a certain athletic skill to retrieve runaway flying machines bent on self-destruction in the nearest cow pasture. Scholastically, Billy profitted greatly from his enthusiastic participation in the sport and achieved an honorable mention from the Virginia Academy of Science.

Throbjorns Steinar Lawson FCA. Debbie Leadbetter Picture yourself at the height of the high school social ladder — your senior year. Settled in your activities, accustomed to your own “clique” of friends, routine meant a comforting rut. And then suddenly a moving van reared into the driveway; boxes were filled carefully with breakables, and after a flurry of tearful good- byes you left behind all those memories to start from scratch. The trauma of moving day couldn't compare to that of the first day in a new school. Even the power of positive thinking hit a dead end when confronted by 2000 unfamiliar faces. Often you found the ice broken by welcoming teachers or outgoing students — but occasionally, harried new classmates forgot both manners and sympathy, ignoring your confusion and unease in the rush of the daily routine! Gradually, things fell into place. Sure, there were moments when you would have given anything to have seen an old friend face-to-face. And it was a disappointing discovery that your mid-year move prevented participation in clubs whose applications had ended. But you took it in stride, and soon the homesickness you had felt when thinking back was replaced by fond recollections. Acquaintances became friends, and new opportunities presented challenges. By the time graduation arrived, you were fairly well assimilated into school society and could receive your diploma knowing you achieved another important goal — a ‘‘Rebel”’ identity.

Seniors 195 Have you ever wondered what it would be like to own your own company? Members of Freeman’s Junior Achievement chapters found the business world opened up to them as they manufactures products such as clocks, drain openers, and lamps. Selling the goods at the Junior Achievement Trade Fair held at Regency Square, the companies greedily counted their profits. Weekly meetings also provided the opportunity to discuss productian hang ups and growing or shrinking bank accounts. Junior Achievement chapters found community assistance invaluable in maintaining profitable businesses. Lone Star Cement and F.M. Hangers were among local companies which supported the future entrepreneurs. University of Richmond business students also gave advice in matters of management problems during troubled times. The prize of an all- expense paid vacation induced Junior Achievement members to achieve perfection as they competed on a test for the best business ability. 196 Seniors Karen Evelyn Tammy Monk Cheerleader, JV Head, Joni G.

I’ve been waiting to use the phone for an hour! Hey — who borrowed my green turtleneck this time? Confusion was a daily occurrence to Rebels from larger families. Station wagons, over-flowing shopping carts and loaded clotheslines easily identified members of “the more, the merrier” households. _ The added expenses of a large family prompted many seniors to find part-time jobs in preparation for the upcoming college term. “Next year there will be two of us in college, so | have to help out,” _ remarked senior Joy Via. Working for their future, the graduates-in- waiting gained a sense of accomplishment and learned to pinch pennies as well. - The lighter side of “living big’ included taking up entire pews in church or two tables in restaurants. Large families were frequently closer than small ones, since sharing rooms necessitated compatibility. And despite the expected quibbling among siblings, Rebels from overpopulated homes could boast distance advantages. Besides always having someone to help with algebra, no “only child” could ever experience that beloved family ritual ... “Good night John-Boy... good-night Mary Ellen ... good- night Jim Bob ... good-night Elizabeth ...

Sheri Cushman Vaughan As seven months of hard work culminated in one brief evening, upperclassmen found their labors to be worthwhile as the Senior Prom began. Rockin’ to the sound of the Andrew Lewis Band, chosen by the class in early October, the hours seemed to fly by as the night progressed. Opening the evening with their formal promenade, the twenty-four members of the Senior Court floated through an “Underwater World” of beauty and adventure. The crowning of King, Queen, Prince, and Princess began the festivities on a high note. Selected by their classmates on the basis of their service to the class, Court members found their glory in the recognition. Prom chairman Martha Stacia commented, ‘‘I’ve enjoyed serving my class and it is truly an honor to be able to participate in the Senior Court.” Before entering the enchanted world, couples celebrated by having dinner ina “swanky” restaurant such as The Top of the Tower of La Petite France. Afterwards followed hours of partying at fraternity-sponsored breakfasts and private parties. Ending the evening in the wee hours of the morning, even a stern father scolding, “WHERE have you been all this time?”” could not spoil the memories of the final high school fling.

Regular meetings held at the museum promoted an understanding of the arts through visiting lecturers, special trips, and group discussions. Exhibiting full attention, Rebs listened with interest to guest speakers. Talks varied from techniques of art restoration to artists’ explanations of their works. The bustle of Washington produced tired feet and numb fingers when members made a trip to view King Tut’s treasure. Friends of Fine Art Red blazers dotted the galeries as students answered endless questions and fought to save the museum’s priceless collection from the scourge of grimy fingers. Helpful Freemanites were also on hand to provide information and prevent minor catastrophies as the celebrated Dali exhibition opened. The Guild distinguished itself as the first youth service club for a museum in the United States. “When presented with the idea of a youth guild, most European countries were very impressed, ‘ commented senior Linda Wren.

Juniors Joy LaPaglia and Melanie McAllister knew these traits well. The first symptoms began two years ago with the opening of Ice Unlimited. The girls decided they wanted to skate in a more serious manner than they were able to during public sessions. This led to countless figure skating lessons. Melanie, who worked her way up to an advanced class concentrating on jumps and spins, discovered that figure skating is a good way to keep in shape and let off excess steam. Joy found figure skating a way to make your body work for you through precision and grace. Although “figure skakitis’” often led to unfinished homework or outlandish practice hours, both girls agreed they wouldn’t have it any other way. judy He | Aickey Hartless _ therine Hasslacker Juniors 213 Denise Hebert Tish Heflebower Carolyn Heller Matt Hellgeth Gary Helm Mary Helwig Shelley Hensley Dell Herring John Heyser Bonnie Hicks David Hincke Liz Hitz Janet Hodges Charlie Hodgman Pat Hohl Dodie Holland Sherry House Davie Howard Mary Ella Hubbard Dena Hudgins Chris Hudson Karen Hughes Jimmy Hulcher Marie Hunnicutt “Sailing, sailing, over Ne. bounding main...” Dreams of | - billowing sails lured Matt Bound’s Aris laridis ian attention from his studies.

Montse, who attended a special school in Mexico where half her classes were taught in English, | encountered fewer language barriers than did her sisters, although all three had a special tutor. In general, American schooling was very different than that of Mexico, where an entire senior class might contain fifty — students. Although they were on the block system, the girls took courses which were of a higher degree of difficulty than their American counterparts. The sisters commented that although their classes were not as difficult, they liked Freeman. Having attended private schools, they especially enjoyed not wearing uniforms and having boys in their classes. They also noted that sy American and Mexican teenagers shared common forms of recreation — such as concerts and parties,: although they were often chaperoned. jon West Kara Westin.

As participants in the Rotary Club’s Student Exchange, each resided with a Belgian family for three weeks in July. Jeanne, who lived in the city of Waterloo, learned that life in Belgium was considerably different from that of the United States. With every introduction, the first question invariably asked was, ‘How many cars do ‘les Americaines’ have?’’ Upon discovering that a good number of Americans own more than one, they responded with amazement. While residing with her Belgium family, Jeanne had the opportunity to tour much of the country, and enjoy a special opportunity to visit France. In Paris, Jeanne had the fortune to attend a traditional French wedding and reception. She was shocked to discover that casual dress was worn to the wedding, while more formal wear was a necessity at the reception. — Viewing another aspect of Belgian life, Patty had the experience of residing in a small town. Located in Southern Belgium, the city of Ath proved to be arefreshing change of atmosphere from Richmond. With the help of her hosts, Patty learned the ways of Belgian lifestyles in everything from choosing live chickens for her dinner to the proper procedure for carrying off a barbeque Belgian style. Though the trip was an experience neither girl will forget, they both welcomed their return from the hectic schedules their summers produced. 228 Sophomores Gi in oa Mary Lessard — Dean Lewis «Stephen sjett Dougie Magill Debbie Mallory. { Ticket hunt.

During their eleven month journey around the waters of the Bahamas, sophomore Laura Austen and her family frequently took to the deep to obtain lobster and conch for their evening meal. Due to the absence of stores or refrigeration, they were also forced to bake their own bread and other commodities. Seaward Sojourn Living from the summer of 1975 through April of 1976 on a 35 foot sailboat, the Austens frequented the waters of the Bahamas and Exumus, a group of small islands. They enjoyed anchoring at an uninhabited shore to dive or go shell hunting. Christmas was spent in Nassau, watching the Junkanov, an all night parade. - Despite the absence of schools, Laura and her sister continued their education as Mrs. Austen taught the girls their lessons for two hours every morning.

Dwarfed by SCA Big Brother Barry Saunders, freshman Gordon Schiff seeks timely assistance as school reopens. 234 Freshmen It had to be a freshman who tugged at your sleeve, begging you to get his lunch from the top shelf of his locker. As school days passed, the freshman became increasingly recognizable to upperclassmen. He was the easiest to spot in hall traffic, as a glance down to waist level invariably located him attempting to dart through our legs or dodging a jealous kick. The freshman seemed to spend a good deal of time on tip-toe: craning his neck in cafeteria lines to see how many had jumped in NG before him, straining at waterfountains, or grasping at doorknobs. The height disadvantage, however, became helpful in gacked halls when an elbow in the thigh caused a bully to slow down, or — when looking through the library’s card catalogue in drawers S through Z; Linda Clarke Jeff Brown Lou Bullock Susan Bullman John Burch Linda Burk John Button Lori Calupca Frank Cappetta Wanda Cartledge Karen Cecil Harmeet Chawla _ Jeff Chewning LOWER _Classmen Denise Cooper Anne Cop ay Cros John Cross Lisa Crutchfield Marcia Cupido Margaret Dailey Patti Davis Phillip Decker Chris Demm Mary Kay Dial Sheri Dority Joseph Downs Jennifer Dudley Beth Early Dory Esposito Brian Farmer Greg Farrar Kitty Fekete Adam Fleming Heather Franklin Cathy Garrette Lisa Gee Janet Goodin Fay Graham Trip Graham Chris Greenstreet Betsey Gresham Kim Gross Donna Grove Eleanor Hammack Freshmen 235 John Hardwicke Nancy Hardy Initiative Reaction Debbie Harless Anne Harris Ricky Harris Sam Harris _ Catherine Hastings Jeannie Hayden. _ Tracy Heenan David Heller Ira Helmick Anita Henderson Mary Hill Cynthia Holland Laur r David Houghton Mark Huff Valerie Hulce Hope Ingram Alfreda Jackson Mike Jensen Debbie Jeter Angie Johnson David Johnson Laura Jones Steve Jones nie Jouget Stephen Joynt Barbara Justice Wayne King In rid Kee rf —_ Vidddox, Lreasurer, an Etna Vice-President; plan ir ine onths ahead, : Pe 236 Freshmen Steve Leslie Bill Leverty Through the maze of unfamiliar A Ube aces faces, new rules, and challenging classes, freshmen sought to find their place at Freeman.

Class President, Charlotte Talley, commented, “There were more advantages in being a freshman here as compared to Byrd. We had an early start on the clubs and making friends.’’ : The excitement of a winning team and a colorful parade of animated floats proved Homecoming to be an awesome event for the inexperienced newcomers.

The ‘’N” loses its place as a8 upperclassmen attempt to spell seniors in expression of their spirit. The severe winter didn’t go by unnoticed at Freeman. Jackets, mittens, scarves, and hats became a gt commonplace sight in classrooms as Os thermostats dropped to 60° in : compliance with the emergency : energy order. Despite the resulting sniffles and discomforts as the cold weather dragged on through February, we kept spirits warm, constantly searching for ways to escape the dull routine of schoolwork. Looking down the halls exposed lockers decorated for birthdays, basketball games, and special holidays. Secret Pals surprised unsuspecting friends with goody bags and presents. The midwinter spirit week climaxed with a nostalgic 50’s dance contest resulting in a tie between the seniors and the sophomores. A closer look revealed the sense of sharing and togetherness that had spread through the student body as we united to make the year a special one.

An exhausted junior collapses on the front lawn, under the pressures of an upcoming term paper. Will it ever end? Suffering from a combined case of spring fever and senior slump, Senior Bonnie Slemaker daydreams in front of school. September seemed like only yesterday as Rebels found themselves a few short weeks away from graduation. As warm days and sunny skies replaced snow and ice, upperclassmen struggled with the traditional “senior slump.”” Only the anticipation of college acceptances, the prom, and beach trips kept seniors going. Spring found juniors faced with one decision after another. From pulling off Stunt Talent Night to arranging schedules, from writing first term papers to struggling through SAT’s, they wondered if the pressures would ever end. For the freshmen and sophomores the demands of the coming years seemed far away. Meanwhile, the lower underclassmen just settled down for a long stay. Closing 255 Got the munchies. Searching for loose change, Rebels take advantage of an afternoon Rebelettes II bake sale. As the year drew to a close, Rebs minds filled with memories: the election of Jimmy Carter, well-spent snow days, victories over Tucker, long lunch lines, after-school jobs, the first Homecoming Dance in years, hassles over exams, club projects, dates with a special one, getting drivers’ licences ... All the unseen work and cooperation added up. People who had never been active became involved; discovering all that Freeman had to offer.
