All this and much more make DHS! We have become a family here through various clubs, play productions, cheerleading and Student Council. These all kept many DHS students moving in the fast lane. Not only were students involved in school activities, many were involved in community affairs- Key Club, church organizations, Ding Dong Days, the summer Baseball Program, and helping with the Pee Wee Football. ln return, the community was involved with the prosperity of DHS. The new school sign, the 6 Year Plan for better education, and the advisory board for the Vocational Unit, were examples of community involvement at DHS. DHS involves students and faculty plus the community - We're all in this together. Ricky Steele and David Posey, managers of the DHS football team, extended their jobs beyond carrying 5 the Gatorade. Flag raising at home games was part of their job. Hometown support for DHS was always great, whether at football games or at other events. 4 All For One 'Fur-' 4 xr Cooch White ond the F.C.A. was only one DHS group involved in Ding Dong Doys.

We all wish we could play the guitar on MTV, but that aint working - at least not around here. At DHS, students earned their money from workingsteadily. Student jobs ranged from plowing fields to mowing yards, or putting out pizzas, even babysitting next door. Even though some parents might have been able to afford the c upkeep of a social-minded student, some students preferred the independence of their own spending money and being able to go out and have a good time on theirlextra bucks. Others found working a necessity, and the opening of several new fast food places supplied a few spare jobs to give the student economy a slight boost. Because of the never ending increase in prices, students found that working hard for the money was sometimes the only way. Gail Jarrett earned her money WWW working as a checker each day.

Setting The Pace - To each his own. lt was evident that individuality was the thing at DHS during the 85-66 school year. We may not be New York or Los Angeles, but fashion here was definitly unique. Nothing changed in the way of the old standards - blue jeans and tennis shoes - but fashions of other countries hit DHS by storm. Mexican dresses were a colorful, comfortable way of making a long day at school more enjoyable. Hawaiian shirts over tank, tops gave the guys a more leisurely, preppy look. ' Plaids and paisley gave the girls a feminine, sophisticated look. A new addition to hairstyles were hair clamps of many colors. There were many variations to how they were worn.

They should for they were common on September 3, 1985, REGISTRATION DAY. Registration Day, as well known, was one of the most grueling days of the whole school year. Trying to get to seven tables before 700 other students was a hassle in itself. This year's D-Day was no exception. Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors had to make way for the many new faces of Freshmen fthe largest classb wandering the halls not knowing where to go or what to do. Students also had to bear waiting in the long lines just to get enrolled in class. Due to the limited classroom sizes, students often found that they would have to postpone certain classes until next year. Registration Day was even more confusing for new students than it was for the others who had participated in the Bobcat 500 . Spanish exchange student, Jesus Peyotas, adjusted to life at DHS. i There were many confused looks among the freshmen during registration. Michael Armstrong and David Bronson wait to get on the roll in Mr. Morris' class. Registration DT' gy r- 92. Seniors and Juniors spent most of the afternoon just sitting after o long morning of registration. It took Mrs. Ellen Smith, Kelley LaCroix, and John Wells to register Shane Gasaway for chemistry. Long lines and lots of waiting in o hot auditorium was the best way to describe registration for the 9th and 10 grades. Registration I7 The 05?

Some projects that were assigned were wood carvings, clay modeling, acrylic and water color paintings, and papier-mache. Working on the Bobcat football signs filled the class time of some students. Many students chose Art I to fulfill their Fine Arts Requirement. Imagination is the backbone of art, while talent, skill, and patience also contribute to a student's creation. Dorothy Portis - Art I, Il, lll, and IV. Patrick Huskey, Steven Backus, and Ray Livingston put all of their talents into a daily assignment. The students of Art I, ll, and Ill concentrated on developing their artistic abilities. Art 21 ma' sfand up! Speak Up! Speech was one of the more popular courses offered at DHS to the students. The courses in Speech were designed to teach students the basic fundamentals and techniques of public speaking. The students in Speech l learned how to stand and speak correctly before an audience. They gave speeches, debates, analyzed poems and works of prose. Basic parliamentary procedure was also taught in the course. Speech ll offered a more in depth approach to Speech l. Those in Drama acted in plays and learned the technical aspects of the stage. Seven students from DHS attended Student Congress at Little Rock during November. Student Congress provided first hand experience in debate and parlimentary procedure. 1985 - 86 Speech Club: Curtis Chatham, Vicki Cossey.

The freshman class was divided into two parts, a semester of grammar and a semester of literature. The sophomores of grammar and a semester of literature. The sophomores had the experience of their lives by showing they could write stories, poems, do illustrations and publish their own book, complete with cover. These books were displayed in the school library. Juniors had nine weeks of grammar, nine weeks of short stories and a semester of literature. They also got to express their thoughts about different poems they read. Seniors had the privilege of spending most of their class time doing research for their term paper.

We as spectators can scarcely imagine the sacrifices made by our Bobcat student-athletes. We applaude your accomplishments and take pride in your examples of good sportsmanship. Grantland Rice, a famous sportswriter, once said, lt's not whether you win or lose, but how well you play the game.

The year started out with two fabulous victories against Star City and Dermott that kept spirits high. The five games that followed were not too encouraging, with defeats from McGehee, Dollarway. Camden, DeWitt, and Monticello. When Homecoming came around we got back on the winning side, by beating the Hamburg Lions 10 to 7 with a last second field goal by quarterback Mike Riley. A trip to Warren resulted in an easy 27 to 6 victory over the Lumberjacks. Our last game was on home turf facing the Crossett Eagles. It was a crazy season throughout the conference. With the last game to play, there was a possiblity ofa five - way tie for conference champs, Warren being the only team not in the running. If Dumas won over Crossett and if Monticello topped Dollarway, everything was up for grabs. There was also a chance that even with a Crossett win the Cats would go to the State play-offs. lt was a lot of iffing for nothing. Crossett won by a 14-0 score and Dollarway defeated Monticello earning the District Championship.

The full week of Homecoming activities planned by the Student Council ended with a dance. This proved to be the main attraction for most of the student body who came to dance the night away. A Bobcat victory was what we needed, and it happened, a close 10 to 7 victory over the Hamburg Lions. 1965 Homecoming Queen, Arnette Dixon. 4 nh 5 '- Qi The HOSA float showed Stacy Keith, 1985 Maid of Honor, April Day.

Homecoming 81 '70 Shooting For Two The '86 Bobcat roundball season seemed to be well on its way to the top by mid-January. After winning the Holiday Classic during the Christmas break, Dumas went on to an even greater win, at least psychologically, over Parkview an their homecourt in Little Rock. The Cats clobbered the Partiots 70 - 45. After the Little Rock win Dumas added icing to the cake by drubbing the Pine Bluff Zebras 53 - 46. The Arkansas Gazette of January 13th ranked the Cats 1st in AAA and 2nd in the state. The Cat's were a young team with only three seniors on the squad. However, the juniors and the sophomores were more than most of their opponents could handle. The odds were for the Cats repeating their District Championship of last year and being in the thick of the race for the overall state title. With the loss of only three seniors, the Cats will be the team to contend with in '87, A5 James EdwQrd5 ghgt Q Tyrone Allen went for two as Brad ffeefhrgw, the rest gf the Cqfg Chambless waited for the rebound. awaited the upcoming results. 82 Boys Basketball F 5' x .

The 1985 Conference runners-up had four returning starters. The five '86 starters were all Seniors and had played together since the 7th grade.

F.C.A. 89 Gomes People Play Many of the students at DHS do not participate in the many school sponsored team sports. This doesn't mean, however that they don't take part in sports. They prefer to do their own thing in a more informal way. There was a large range of games people played . . . walking, hunting, mudracing, basketball, and the list goes on and on. Their goal is not to earn a letter but to do something for the fun of it The students that participate in unorgonized sports are still very much a part of the DHS sports style.

All the student body showed good sportsmanship whether they were playing or just watching. Each homeroom sponsored a team whether or not they had to 5 combine with another homeroom to form one. The games were held every fourth Tuesday during activity period. The winning team of the seniors is scheduled to play the teachers at the end of the year.

Whether it was pep rallies or Friday, teacher PET observations or nine weeks test, at DHS it was done OUR way Our own little world at DHS may have seemed unexciting to us, but when compared to other schools, it was great!

Never do you hear the average student run up to a yearbook member and ask, Did you write your copy and captions? , Did you meet your 40 page deadline? , Have your photographers printed their negatives? . Most ask the same question the whole school year, When will the yearbooks be in? When considering Yearbook as an activity, a person doesn't realize what he is getting into. Yearbook is not just another study hall or free period, but a class that you do more work in than any other. There are pages to be drawn, pictures to be taken, and copy to be written. There is always something to do in Yearbook, no matter what one thinks. Yearbook work is not just done during the school year. A lot of work is done during the summer months when staffers sell ads. The sale of these ads reduced the cost of the book to the student by two - thirds. Yearbook members though they can't stand it, rely on the DHS student body to ask their annual , When will the Yearbooks be in? lt shows the staff that the Yearbook is not just a book with pictures that no one cares about but rather a part of our DHS life that we not only expect but anticipate. lt's not just the staff that makes the Yearbook, nor is it just the student body - it's all of us. We're all in this together! nnl ' 4+-K Beth Estes, Amy Stewart, and John Wells, can tell you that when fm-rr...-, working with money, spending comes if ' I! much easier than counting. S ' T T44 Staff No, the yearbook staff is not trying to fly. These pictdres had to be dried and ready by a stiff deadline. Chanda Martin was just one of many who worked hard on mugs and senior pictures. Yearbook sponsor Carolyn Porter took a moment's rest from the hectic Staff 145 W Deciding which pictures to use was always a hard decision for Melinda Murphy, Kim Fells, and Brigette Garrett. Senior pictures kept Kara Beth Canada and Sheila Morris steady at work.

Working Together Community In volvemenr The Community and DHS have a common link - they both depend on each other. DHS is not just a school dealing totally with seven classes from 8:10 to 3:10. There are many clubs and organizations at DHS that benefit the community around it. Key Club, in cooperation with the Kiwanis Club, do community rservice projects such as Save the Children Campaign. 1 Hosa, working with TWIGS, raised money for the Arkansas lChildren's Hospital, plus sponsored the annual bloodrive which ,collected 134 units - a record for DHS and Desha County. i National Honor Society and Library Club helped by sending lfood and gifts to needy families in the Dumas Community. l Students are not just the only people involved at DHS in lCommunity Affairs. Many faculty members and administrators contributed time and talent to various community projects. l DHS can't work without the community just as the community can't work without DHS. We-'re all in this rogerher! i ,f ,, -WRT? ,im , W '4A.J W , V e Arkansas Attorney General Steve Clark addressed issues facing high school students in Arkansas today.

Trying to be the best that you can be is one of D.H.S.'s main goals. The sharing of the good times and the bad gave this school its close-knit feeling. y Pep rallies, assemblies, and club meetings cut the classes and gave students a new lift. Racing out of the parking lot at lunch and llooking out for Number 1 became the only thought for some. There lnever seemed to be a dull moment at D.H.S. Preparing its students for the outside world is what D.H.S. is all about and - lt has All been Yours! .L 1- fiiznzrg Keith Hurst expressed the hope of all - The beginning of next season. For many at D.H.S., the summer was a busy one with preparation for Ding Dong Days. Pictured here is the museum's parade entry featuring Arkansas's Old Guard Rest Home with former office holders Marlin Hawkins, Mutt Jones, Jim Johnston, and Orville Faubus. Closing 195 'F David Pennington and Mike Riley made giving blood an easier task than it looked. Luther Coger and Lawerence Smith were the D.H.S. flagboys for 1985-86. 196 Closing ' Mffmlfi ,Mm Warn A .v 'G x ar .hvi Af If 4 Q .., ,avian if I B-,'5'Q.4 v 'gi w,'-nth' us: at my .5 7 w. 1...-f' ummm-amvnsu josmvs I -W , 7,1-1.
