Duncan High School - Wildkat Yearbook (Duncan, AZ)

Text from Pages 1 - 128 of the 1980 volume:

Duncan High School Duncan, Arizona Vol. 47 Wildkat 1980 Dedication Mr. Erwin Crotts, while serving as Vocational Agriculture teacher for six years and as High School Principal for the past two years, has earned the genuine respect of DHS students and faculty members. Having lived in the Duncan area for many years, Mr. Crotts is in touch with the feelings of the community and can always be counted on to consider all aspects of an issue before making a decision. His sense of fairness and his concern for those with whom he works are appreciated by all. These qualities extend beyond the local community, as Mr. Crotts has been elected by his peers to serve as the State B-Conference President for the coming year. As principal, Mr. Crotts has made it a policy to assist students in every way from classroom problems to personal problems, and he has done no less for his teachers. Under his admin- istration, class offerings have increased and the quality of instruction has improved. With these things in mind, the yearbook Staff dedicates the 1980 Wildkat to Mr. Crotts, in appreciation of his contributions to the school and community. 3 Student Life A year to remember! Here’s the way it was during the 1979-80 school year. It was a year for fun outside of class. On these two pages, we show you some of the good times you had everywhere from the park- ing lot to the pep rallies. On the facing face, Terry’s bug was a favorite hang out for junior boys at lunch time. And when Clay was promoted from his Pepsi route, the office girls weren’t as pleased as they look here. And what could be on Donna’s mind? Above, the student body seems to have enjoyed them- selves at a pep rally, almost as much as they did when it snowed. Kathy and Margaret, Jerry and Jacque enjoy the great out-of-door! Take a quick look back at a great school year. It was a year in which the sweet taste of glory came to five DHS athletic teams who advanced to the state play-offs. It was a year in which the concert band received a Superior Award as it appeared in competition at EAC. Not to be outdone, DHS business students captured more first place awards than any other school in competition at EAC’s Business Day. Always strong in area contests, the FFA Chap- ter brought home a lion’s share of individual and team wins from the Field Days which members attended. The chapter’s Safety Program report placed second in state judging and was submitted for national judging. It was a great year for other campus organiza- tions as the Student Council took an active role in co-ordinating all activities. Most importantly, it was a great year for the students. Enjoy this yearbook as a record of one of the best year of your life. Oh, What A Feeling. . . Who can type? Who can file? Who can take shorthand? Who can run a computer? We Can, say the DHS students whose business skills specialties allowed them to rate so well at the EAC Business Day. The Student Council Officers are at it again! In concert at the end of the school year, the Wildkat band demonstrates how it received a Superior rating. Who would have believed in August that the crew at the left could be assembled into a threatening football team? And threatening they were as the Wildkats shocked the Eagles and Yellowjackets out of their hopes for the playoffs. As a promising miler in his freshman and sophomore years, Mike improved his time to 4:28.7 during the track season, for a new school record. Just wait until next year, and watch him fly! You will find examples of Wildkat Pride throughout this book, and we hope it brings to each of you a good feeling, a feeling that you simply could not find a greater school. On this page are some specif- ic examples of pride: ...pride in knowing that your school is offering its best; .. pride in giving your per- sonal best to your team; . pride in having such a tal- ented musical group; .. pride in team spirit; . . pride in being a parent of a Wildkat. 8 OUR YEAR 1980 Varsity football players included, row 1: Will Hille, Scott Rapier, Benny Norte, Berl Stacy, Danny Holliday, Terry Tipton, Dickie Garcia, Hector Herrera; row 2, Mark Guerrero, Raymond Aguallo, Joel Miller, Roumaldo Romero, Stephen Rodriquez, Terrol Lunt, Tim Fitzhugh, Gregg Norton, Steven Lunt; row 3, Coach Charlie McDaniel, Head Coach Don Reese, Charles Hatch, Kevin Attaway, Byron Wilkerson, Bill Cauthen, Leo Clark, Bryan Bradford, Chuck Kennedy, Tracy Johnston, Coach Max Germaine. Kats Make State Playoffs The 1979 Duncan Wildkats had the most outstanding sea- son in recent years, ending with a loss to Phoenix Christian in the first round of the State Football playoffs. Getting to the state playoffs was difficult, but the Kats achieved stunning victories over the heavily fa- vored Thatcher Eagles and Tombston Yellowjackets in the B-East play-off for 2nd place. The Kats ended with a record of 8-4 overall. Wildkats selected to the B-East Conference teams were Stephen Rodriquez, Bill Cauthen, Raymond Aguallo, Joel Miller and Charles Hatch. Steve was named All-Area Most Valuable Player. Bill was selected 2nd team All-State of- fense and defense, while Steve received Honorable Mention on offense. The Wildkats were engi- neered by a new coaching staff, with Don Reese as head coach. He was assisted by Max Ger- maine and Charley McDaniel on Varsity and Jack Willey and Mike Downing on the JV squad. Above, Byron fakes handoff.

Duncan scores! JV’s on the move The JV team did not fare as well as the varsity. The teams lack of depth and heavy reli- ance on freshman talent were factors in the moderately suc- cessful season. Many of the JV players will be moving up to fill positions on the varsity squad and will contribute to a win- ning season in 1980. In the picture above, Raymond heads downfield.

Row Patsy Onate, Manager. 2: Marty Chandler, Manager, Kate McCluskey, Elaine Lady Kats The 1979 Wildkat volleyball season got off to a slow start, but ended up with a trip to state. The girls conference record was 2-4; therefore, they went into the district tournament seeded sixth. But the Lady Wildkats succeeded in defeating Valley Union in the first round of district play, then Tombstone in the second round. In the championship round, the girls lost to Thatcher. At state, the girls lost to Florence, who later took the Championship, in the first round of play. Mary leaps to attack the Jackets' ball. Go To State The varsity team consisted of nine players, six of whom were seniors. Two of these seniors re- ceived awards: Adele Merrell made 1st team All- Conference and Shelley White was named All- Area Most Improved Player. The varsity team was coached by Barbara Stauffer, who has served previously as JV coach. The girls’ trip to state was proof of the coaching ability of Mrs. Stauffer. Patty spikes, while Shelley and Sterling stand ready. JoAnne eagerly awaits the ball with Mary steps in with her serve. Elaine and Shelley looking on. Shelley attempts a point. The District tourney held at EAC was a success for the girls as they attained a trip to the State playoffs as a result of their play. At the left, Adele is shown bumping the ball while her teammates watch with confi- dence. 15 New coach for JV The JV volleyball team ended with a winning season. The team was a very small one and by the end of the season, the freshmen team players were moved up. The girls were coached by Becky Madrigal who did well for her first year of coaching. Lydia is ready to bump, with Patty, Debbie, Lorene and Marina looking on. Coach Madrigal and Varsity Coach Stauffer watch the JV game with inter- est.

Boys lost out in tournament It was a disappointing sea- son’s end for the Wildkats as their play-off hopes went down against Thatcher in round two of the B-East tournament. The boys team provided some out- standing basketball, and the highlight of the year was Dan Lunt’s selection to the boys All- State team. The boys won 14 out of 24 games, under the leadership of Coach Frank Klajda. Team members shown here were Rou- maldo Romero, Doug Hanson, Berl Stacy, manager, Raymond Aguallo, Philip Montoya, and Scott Rapier (row 1); Mike Martinez, Byron Wilkerson, Dan Lunt, Bill Cauthen, Steve Lunt, and Chuck Segraves. Not pictured are Kevin Attaway, who received an early season injury, and Blaine Young. Above, Roumaldo shoots a foul shot against Tombstone. Inside, Dan dem- onstrates the perfect jumpshot.

JV basketball A lot of talent characterized the boys’JV basketball team, as they achieved a 9-5 record for the year. Under the capable coaching of Mr. Reese, the team was able to overcome most of its opposition while improving hall handling skills. The JV games generated a lot of excite- ment and DHS fans can look forward to great basketball from these young men next sea- son. JV players included, Row 1, Freddie Rodriquez, Ruben Aguallo, Terry Tipton. Derek Rapier, Randy Crum, Raymond Bejarano; Row 2, Peter Munguia, Terrol Lunt, Jerry Dozier, Pat Fowler, Bret Norton, Chris Damron and Coach Reese. Terroll attempts a classic free throw. A demonstration from Freddie. Freshman basketball Raymond goes up for two points. The Freshman basket- ball team had a 5-5 season record. There was a lot of enthusiasm as they met Thatcher four times, fall- ing to the Eagles only once. It turned out to be a good season, readying these Freshmen for bigger and better things in the next three seasons. Team members were Paul Moore, Brad White, Mike Richins, Coach Ger- maine, Ricky Nutt, Char- lie Kasparian, Troy Thy- gerson, Lonnie Nichols, Greg Johns, Alphonso Garcia. 20 Girls take 2nd in B-East conference Above, Bonnie gets the jump against Pima. Defense in action! Way to go, Wildkats! Sterling takes a pass from Kate. The Lady Wildkats ended the season with a trip to the State tournament, their first since the girls’ basketball pro- gram was initiated four years ago. While the team was small in numbers, each girls had the opportunity to contribute to the team’s winning season. In regular season play, the Lady Kats averaged 44 points per game. In the first round of the 13- East Conference tournament, the Lady Kats downed Babo, 40-19, and defeated Benson, 44- 28, in round two. In the Cham- pionship round, the Thatcher girls defeated Duncan 41-32, but were still qualified for the State playoffs. The girls were less fortunate in the State tournament, with a first round loss (68-32) to Flor- ence who went on to take the State Championship. Senior Kate McCluskey reached her peak of perfor- mance this season, and was again named to the All-Confer- ence Team. Kate had a career total of 1061 points. She was presented the game ball in the Clifton game when she made her 1000th point. The Lady Kats were coached this year by Mike Downing. Team members included Lenora Mendez, JoAnne Garcia, Adele Merrell, Kate McCluskey, Coach Downing, Bonnie Crumbley, Mary Segraves, Sterling Waters and Debbie Williams. 21 Above, the jump ball eludes the Lady Kats, while to the right, in State tournament play, Kate takes a shot.

I Winter athletes honored During the 1979-80 school year, the basketball season came to a close with 2 very special nights. The first was parents night which was held Febru- ary 12, shortly before the season ended. Parents Night’s role was to honor all the parents of the participants in basketball, cheerleading and poms. The second was the Winter Sports Banquet held on March 5th. The Sports Banquet was to honor the participants and to give outstanding players recognition.

The five-member girls track team pictured here included Becky Miller, Kelly Hatch, Bonnie Crumbley, Lorene Felts, and Celia Mendez. Both teams were coached by Jack Willey and Mike Downing. 31 Boys track Three school records were set by the boys track team this season. Mike Martinez continued to pour on the pressure as he set a new record in the mile, and was the team’s high point getter. Bill Cauthen, named Most Improved Boy, broke the discus throw record which had stood since 1964, with his throw of 150 feet, 2‘ 2 inches. The 440 relay team also set a record. Team members were Bill, Will Hille, Bryan Bradford and Troy Thygerson. Troy was named Outstand- ing Freshman with his 2nd and 3rd place finishes in the 100 yard dash and the 220. 1) Bryan makes a super effort with his throw; 2) Paul, and 3) Terry run their hurdles; 4) Charlie’s style is unique! Did he make it over? 5) Bill’s prize winning discus throw. 5 32 Girls track The girls track squad competed with determina- tion at this year’s meets, with some good results. In awards at the season’s end, Lorene Felts took the lion’s share of awards. Competing in the shot, the 880 run and on the relay team, Lorene was High Point girl and was named Most Improved Girl as well. At 2:44.0, she broke the school record in the 880. Another fine trackster, Becky Miller was named Outstanding Freshman. Her 100-yard dash time of 10.4 at the district meet gave her 2nd place, and she placed 3rd in the 220. 1) Becky makes her 3rd place jump at the district meet; 2) at the line, Celia’s determined to get out in front; 3) baton ex- change on the relay; Bonnie makes her contribution with the discus throw to the left, and the high jump, above. 33 Cheers support Kats through the year The ranks of the varsity cheerleaders changed some- what through the year. The original five, pictured to the right, were Anna Bejarano, Shelley White (head cheer- leader), Sandra Williams, Shawna Shannon and Jackie Parks. A sixth cheerleader, Terri Goodner, joined the squad a few weeks into the football season. Early graduation took Sandra from the action during the bas- ketball season. Mrs. Lou Ann White served as the girls’ spon- sor. While a smile can almost al- ways be found on a cheer- leader’s face, her work is far from easy. Hours of practicing, planning pep rallies, making spirit posters, and appearing at football, volleyball and basket- ball games all go into the job. Above, Terri enjoys letting fans know how she feels about the Kats. Center right: organizing and carrying out pep rallies is only only of the cheers’ jobs. Here Shawna can’t bear to watch the potato pushers in class competition. To the right, when called on to help the poms carry out their routines, Terri, Shelley, Shawna and Anna did double duty at the basketball games. 34 To the left, the varsity cheerleaders work to get the spirit going at a pep rally. Center left: A winning season makes it easier for the girls to get the fans in a supportive mood.

JV Cheerleaders These freshmen girls were on hand to support the JV teams as they participated in both football and basketball. Their contagious spirit promises great things for DHS teams in the next three years. Melodie Duffey Susan Rutherford Rhonda Weathers Zona Hooper 35 Poms add color to halftimes The DHS Pom Pons, like the cheerleaders, were a changing group, as different young ladies joined and left the squad during the year because of conflicting activities. Participating in the Poms at various times were Jana Bal- lard, Cindy Boring, Edith Buckner, Ronda Cox, Donna Guerra, Jeana Hill, Tricia Her- rera, Lisa Holder, Rudy Holli- day, Kathy McKinney, Dina Munguia and Laurie Lemons. Elise Lunt was their mascot and Olga Iglecias was sponsor. The Poms begin a dance routine at halftime at a basketball game. 36 Who would guess that the exhibition shown here would ever turn into the precision group which put on those fine halftime performances.

OUR YEAR 1980 Student council keeps active This year's Student Council did an outstanding job of keep- ing students informed of activi- ties and keeping the calendar filled. Council members had the op- portunity of going to Flowing Wells to a workshop on school spirit ideas, sponsored by Jos- ten’s American Yearbook Com- pany. It was a great experience for all. Student Council officers for the year were Patsy Onate, Treasurer; Kate McCluskey, Vice-President; Roumaldo Romero, President; Terri Goodner, Secretary; Max Ger- maine, Advisor. Council members, in addition to the of- ficers pictured in the front row, were Kathy McKinney, .James Denton, Charles Hatch, JoAnne Garcia, Steve Rodriquez, Bernice Romero, Mary Se- graves, .Jackie Wagley, Wesley Word, Laurie Lemons, Lisa Holder, Scott Ra- pier, Adele Merrell, Debbie Williams and Celia Mendez. 38 Med-Start In its second year at DHS, the Med-Start program contin- ued to stress medical career op- portunities to its members. The girls in the club attended a weekend seminar at a Tucson hospital, coming away more convinced than ever that the medical profession had a great deal to offer. Among the club’s members were the girls shown to the left: Bernice Romero, Tracy Shay, Ronda Cox, Debbie Williams, and Edith Buckner. Barbara Stauffer again served as spon- sor. GAC While membership in GAC is open to any girl who has lettered in a var- sity sport, only the seniors came for the picture. Pictured here are Patsy Onate, with her head turned, Adele Merrell with her leg still bundled, Celia Mendez, Coach Stauffer, Kate McCluskey with her black eye, Elaine Lunt with her eyes closed, Sterling Waters, Bonnie Crumbley and Marty Chandler. At the May Awards Assembly, Sterling Waters was named Girl Athlete of the Year. 39 D-Club game provides laughs for everybody When a club's main function is to put on a good show, everybody wins. The D-Club-Faculty game was fun for all, as the teachers emerged victorious, if a little sore, with a little help from a couple of non-faculty members. D-Club coaches Dan Lunt and Bill Cauthen concentrate on their team’s fine hall handling. H Mr. Olson tries to block out the noise as the band, directed in his absence by Debbie, works up a little pre-game spirit. Byron is intent on enforcing fair play, and probably got to call another foul on the faculty after this jump ball. Below, Mr. Willey gets another shot past Tim, as he did so often. 40 In the pictures above, the faculty’s bench warmers relax, glad to he out of the action for a while. And Scott watches Joel’s toes as he attempts a free throw. To the left, Charlie wouldn’t dare miss this one. He might get run out of the gym if he did! D-Club members pictured here include.

Steve hunt, Mike Martinez, Leo Clark, and Dan Lunt; Row 3, Kevin Attaway, Raymond Aguallo, Greg Norton and Joe Baca; Row 4: Tim Fitzhugh, Bryan Bradford, Chuck Se- graves; Row 5: Billy Bigelow, Tracy Johnston, and Mark Guerrero. 41 Sprechen sie deutsch? The German club does! Members of the German Club, in its second year at DHS, have learned about the culture of Germany during this school year, besides learning the basics of the language. Each week class members demonstrated some food item which was then shared by all. In the pictures to the right, Lorene and Tanya have pre- pared the week’s treats of Ger- man chocolate cake and cheese pancakes, and after some weeks of sampling the goodies, class members were no longer afraid to dig right in and enjoy one another’s creations. 42 German Club members included Lydia Ruiz, Mr. Germaine, Sponsor, Angie Ruiz, Cindy Boring, Anna Bejarano, Cathy Daniels, Jackie Wagley, Bonnie Crumbley, Jana Ballard, Ron- da Cox, Lily Herrera, Mary Bigelow, Edith Buckner, Gloria Herrera, Lorene Felts, Tanya Tucker. Robin Rodriquez, and Julia Herrera. Yearbook staff The yearbook staff has the job of putting out the Kat Chat every two weeks during the fall semes- ter, and producing the yearbook during the spring. In order to do this, the staff must be aware of both the major and minor events at school, and organize the details in such a manner that the reader has an accurate picture of the year. With- out the co-operation of teachers, club sponsors, and coaches, the task would be all but impossible. Except for the portraits, the photography work in this book was done by students enrolled in photo classes. Tracy Johnston served as yearbook editor, while Bernice Romero was Kat Chat editor. Staff members included Laurie Lemons, Tracy Shay, Ellen French, Donna Howard, Jeana Hili, Mary Segraves, and Tammy Windsor. Advisor of both publications was Mrs. Jan Higginbotham. Working on yearbook pages are the crew pic- tured above. To the right, Tracy writes copy, while Bernice and Roumaldo discuss a photo assignment. Below, Patty Segraves was one of the most willing photographers. Lower right, Sterling watches over Mrs. Higginbotham’s shoulder as she types up a final newspaper page. 43 On hand for the FHA picture were, Row 1, Pam Matheuws, Mrs. Brines, Glennda Edwards, Mary Segraves, Mary Helen Mendez, Peter Baca; Row 2, Dawnell Jones, Kathy Merrell, Patsy Onate, Mary Edwards, Maria Burrola, Bernice Romero, Donna Dixon, Ruby Holliday, Jacque DeVoll, and Aaron Mendez. Future Homemakers of America A variety of events was available for FHA mem- bers to be involved in this year. In addition to their banquet held in the fall, the Chapter attend- ed the district meeting, provided valentine cookies in February and took a club trip to the Gila Cliff Dwellings in May. Participation in FHA is open to any student who has taken a Home Economics class, and mem- bership reached over 30 this year. FHA officers this year were Patsy Onate, Presi- dent, Grade Salazar, Vice-President, and Marty Chandler, Secretary.

Working on their projects throughout the year, members spend after-school hours practicing for judging events in all areas of Vocational Agricul- ture, giving up many Saturdays to attend Field Days. The members also find time to attend night meetings and still carry out their projects which range from horses to wildlife conservation. Highlights of this year’s FFA program included hosting the District FFA Greenland and Chapter Farmer Initiation, conducting the popular animal fair, entering a float in the County Fair Parade, and, of course, the Spring FFA Banquet. In the top picture, Bobby, Steve and Jana make plans for the District Initiation Ceremony. In the next two pictures, the refreshment crew are pre- paring for the Primary kids after they complete the Animal Fair tour, including learning all about George’s mule.

Over two hundred people attended the 1980 FFA Banquet. The quest speaker was State FFA Vice- President Jeff Young. Many of the local members received awards for outstanding achievements this year. Among these were Eddie Davis, Star Chapter Greenhand, Joel Miller, Dekalb award winner, and Steve Nuttall, Star Chapter Farmer. The Chapter Sweetheart for ‘80-‘81, Cathy Daniel, was announced, along with her attendants Kathy Billingsley and Shawna Shannon. The banquet ended with the recognition of next year’s officers, after which retiring president Joel Miller, handed the gavel over to Rodney Rodriquez, 1980- 81 president. Mr. Crotts congratulates Public Speaking Award Winners Melodie Duffey, Kristi Bowen and Troy Thygerson. I Joel presents the officers’ gift to Mr. Downs, above.

Mr. Olson demonstrates to Glennda how not to break the strings. Guitar classes in second year at DHS Guitar class, added to the cir- riculum last year, had provided a new musical outlet for stu- dents. While it is not a club as such, it does provide a break from ordinary classes so we’ve included it in this section for you to take a look at the pro- spective folk singers of Duncan. A touch of piano accompaniment is just what’s needed for the aspiring guitarists, according to Margaret and Art. Above, Marty is serious about her music as she works on her chords. To the left, what promising talent comes out of this crew including Kristi, Paul, Crystal, Albert and Charles. 49 Band provides music for all occasions In his first year at Duncan High School, Mr. Dave Olson involved the band in many as- pects of campus life. Besides performing at pep rallys and football and basketball games, the band participated in an Ari- zona State Fair concert and in competition at Eastern Arizona College. Concerts were present- ed by the band at Christmas and in the spring. Members of the DHS band pictured above included Row 1, Billy Bigelow, Dawnell Jones, Julia Hatch, Sonny Foote, Mary Bigelow, Fairlene Foote, and Kathy Merrell; Row 2, Tracy Shay, Rose Nelson, Ronda Cox, Edith Buckner, Kelly Hatch, and Randy Crum; Row 3, Cobie Arguellez, Charles Hatch, Reo Germaine, Steve Lunt, Derek Rapier, Peter Munguia, Bret Norton, Ruben Aguallo, Raymond Bejarano, and Mark Perez; Row 4, Debbie Williams, Ron Aguallo and Dave Olson, Direc- tor. 50 Marching Band During the Greenlee County Fair Parade pictured above, members of the DHS marching band provided march music and a touch of color. Julia Hatch lead the group as drum major. The band also performed at all home football games. In the picture to the left, the poms are accompanied by the band, add- ing to the halftime activities during the homecoming game. 51 Inductees into the National Honor Society included Donna liams, Tracy Shay, Cindy Boring, Bernice Romero, Terrol Howard.

To the right, Mrs. O’Connor is pictured with NHS members Mary Edwards, Chuck Segraves, Charles Hatch, Roumaldo Rome- ro and Sterling Waters. Twenty-three new members, eight of which were sophomores who were admitted for the first time this year, were added to the DHS Chapter. The ceremony, conducted by five senior members of the organi- zation, was preceeded by a ban- quet prepared by Mrs. Frances Gould and her staff. To the bottom left, Charles Hatch served as master of ceremonies for the evening. Mary Edwards, center, lighted the white candle of character, while below, Chuck Segraves discussed scholarship. OUR YEAR 1980 Homecoming Week had something for everyone Perhaps the most fun of the year was exper- ienced during Homecoming Week. The Homecom- ing Committee, lead by Mary Edwards, dreamed up a crazy list of activities for students to enjoy. The Senior Class accumulated the most spirit points although they shunned the wood gathering for the bonfire. Students and teachers alike participated in the designated days: Hat Day, Sloppy Day, Dress Up Day and Color Day. Noon time activities ranged from a jello dive to pyramid building to a sponge race to painting the “D”. Mr. Klajda distinguished himself by sitting on a block of ice forever, it seemed. Hall decorat- ing was done by students after school. The climax of the week was the 14-13 win over Valley Union by the mighty Kats. The game was followed by a dance at which Seniors Carol and Scott won the dance competition. To the right, the football players are all ready for the pep rally. Below, Jackie and Sterling discover that Sterling’s pants are really built for two. Bottom right, the Sloppy Day Mob poses. Junior Class members work at making the halls beautiful. 54 The Jr. Class pyramid is a tower of strength. Danny loves the jello dive. Steve instructs Mike on the proper way to paint.

To the left, the girls are waiting for the royalty announcement. To the right, Terri and Joel accept their gifts as Queen and King. “Still” provides setting for a memorable ball The Senior Ball was held on the 22nd of December. The theme was “Still”, and the mu- sic was provided by Sound Col- umn from Safford. The decoration of the gym was carried out in blue and white, with Christmas trees set around the gym. The royalty of the Senior Ball was King Joel Miller and Queen Terri Goodner. Atten- dants were Scott Rapier and Elaine Lunt, James Denton and Carol Abeyta, and Gharles Hatch and Celia Mendez. Act- ing as master of ceremonies for the presentation of royalty was Roumaldo Romero, assisted by Joanne Garcia. A surprise guest appeared at the ball. This unexpected guest was none other than Santa Claus, who circulated around the gym while calls of “Budda! Budda! Budda!” were coming from all sides of the gym. Santa handed out candy canes to all. Beautifully decorated, the empty room stands ready for the guests to enjoy the mood of “Still”. “We’ve got tonight” For the second time during the school year, the gym was turned into a crepe paper won- derland on May 10, as the Ju- nior Class presented their prom for the Seniors. In contrast with other years, the Juniors held their banquet on the evening preceeding the prom. An informal affair, the banquet, prepared by Mrs. Gould and her staff, featured spaghetti and meatballs. Guest speaker was Superintendent Wilson. The senior wills were given by Roumaldo Romero and Tracy Shay read the prophecies. “We’ve Got Tonight” was the theme for the prom, with music provided by Sun Trak. The highlight of the evening was the presentation of royalty with Tracy Johnston acting as em- cee, assisted by Bernice Rome- ro. Carol Abeyta and Chalo Luna were named Prom Queen and King. Attendants were Jackie Wagley and Leo Clark, Mary Edwards and Steve Nut- tall, Marty Chandler and Berl Stacy, and Byron Wilkerson and Millynda Adams. Above, banquet guests were served by sopho- more and freshman girls. To the left, the danc- ers enjoy the music. 1) Attendants wait for the royalty an- nouncement; 2) Julio and Kathy - all dressed up for the dance; 3) 4) the guys wait for their dates to comb their hair one last time before prom pictures are taken; 5) the Grand March, gra- ciously lead by Marcos and Becky Mad- rigal. 59 On occasion there comes along a class with an exceptional amount of talent, a class whose mem- bers reach levels of achievement unexpected. Such was the Class of ‘80. Their contribution to the school has been widespread, and as they reached their graduation week, it was a sobering exper- ience for not only the graduates, but also the un- derclassmen. The pictures on these two pages reflect some of the feelings of the baccalaureate and commence- ment ceremonies. To the right, Byron and Steve, among others, enjoy the baccalaureate reception sponsored by the Valley National Bank. Below, School Board members and Mr. Crotts watch as the graduates march in. The graduates gather in the hallway, prepared for baccalaureate. Goodbye To The Class Of ‘80 60 1) Berl, Kevin and James enjoy a pre- graduation visit, perhaps one of their last; 2) the Senior girls prepare to give their gift in song: “Theme from Mahog- any” and “Sometimes”; 3) the Presen- tation of Diplomas was done by Board Members Hank Miller and Larry Rapi- er. Here Mr. Rapier congratulates Dan Lunt; 4) Chuck Segraves delivers the Salutatory Address; As the graduates leave the gym, their thoughts must have been very serious by the looks on the faces of 5) James and Mary, and 6) Fernie and Millynda. 61 Wildkats Recognized On the last day of school, outstanding DHS stu- dents were recognized for their achievements in everything from academics to athletics. Many of the students were outstanding in more than one area, and are to be commended for their versatil- ity. Above, representing the Booster Club, Mrs. Barbara Attaway presents a check to Mr. Crotts on the club's behalf. The gift will help to defray travel expenses for athletes. To the left, participation awards and letters were presented to DHS athletes in all sports. Below, those mighty seniors who simply could not wait to graduate were back on hand the morning after to attend the Awards Assembly. 62 Charles Hatch receives his valedictory award from Mr. Crotts. Charles was also recognized as Outstanding Boy Tennis Player, and as State PTSA Cul- tural Arts winner in Literature. The school’s Outstanding Social Stud- ies Award goes to Berl Stacy.

As in the past, the five-member board has been highly supportive of high school activities. In addition to the many meetings which they attend as a part of their duties, each of them can be seen in attendance at other school functions in- cluding ball games, the NHS and FFA banquets, and gradu- ation. We would like to salute this group for their concern and in- volvement in school affairs. Board of Education: Larry Rapier, President Ellen Vandervort, Clerk Wilbur Lunt Hank Miller Ed Barlow Mr. Jack Wilson has com- pleted his second year as Super- intendent of the Duncan Schools. Like the Board mem- bers, Mr. Wilson spends many hours in attending extra-cur- ricular functions, as well as at- tending to the school’s day-to- day operation. 66 Above, Mr. Wilson is shown starting another busy day. Office Personnel The office personnel play an important role in the proper functioning of the school sys- tem. Besides running off all sorts of copy sheets and assign- ment sheets, they are constant- ly answering phones and at- tending to the general affairs of the school. They have been a tremendous help to the new- spaper yearbook staff and we would like to take this opportu- nity to thank them. Kathy Thygerson is shown doing te- dious paper work. She is the Business Manager for the main office. Left. Thelma Miller, Secretary to the Super- intendent, is shown writing out copy orders. Center left. Wyla Hooper, shown here stapling pa- pers together, is Expense Voucher Clerk. Center right. Cookie McCluskey, along with deliver- ing mail and running errands, drives the mini-bus. Bottom left. 67 High School Administration The High School Administration this year included Mr. Erwin Crotts, as principal, Mr. Max Germaine, as admin- istrative assistant, Mr. Wayne Palmer, as counselor, and Mr. Don Reese as athletic director. Each of these men relied on the able assistance of Mrs. Malynda Webb, secre- tary. The jobs which each of these individuals do is vital to the smooth operation of the school, and each of them performs his job in a professional manner. We, of the Wildkat Staff, say “thanks” for a job well done. As principal, Mr. Crotts attends many extra-curricu- lar functions, such as the NHS banquet shown here. Above, Mr. Palmer pauses for a mo- ment between his counseling duties. To the right: Mr. Reese and Mr. Germaine keep an eye on the troops before the first bell rings. 68 Terri enjoys her daily date with the computer. Office Aides If you can’t find anything better to take, sign up for Office Aide. Right? Wrong! The young ladies who do take this Busi- ness Course for credit find themselves very busy at a variety of jobs. Some of their duties include computer work, typing every thing from daily announcements to graduation programs, filing reports and running errands. Other students enrolled in the course as- sist teachers, both in the high school and in the primary grades, and work in the District Office. Shelley checks over the class schedule. Robin digs madly in the drawer for a lost possession. The office girls present Mr. Crotts with a gift at Christmas. To the left: Mrs. Webb may kill us for this shot, but besides catching Liz busy with her paper work, we thought we’d share some great art work with you. 69 Your Favorite Faculty Over half of the DHS faculty was new to the school system this year. With them, and the lef- tovers from previous years, a wide range of college and career experiences were in the background of the faculty, and all of these things left their marks on the students whom they taught. Here we show you some of the faculty, as they worked or relaxed, both in and out of the classroom. 1) Mr. Olson and Mr. Reese enjoy the afternoon at a JV football game; 2) Mr. Klajda is caught hiding another of his great tests; 3) Mr. Downs is always ready to give a student extra help - or extra work; 4) Mr. Downing just loves having his picture tak- en; 5) In the teachers’ lounge before school, Ms. LaChotta glances up from her novel. 70 1) Mr. Lunt explains a dissection proce- dure to his attentive class; 2) The con- versation between Mr. Willey and Mike is sure to be about track; 3) Who is available to take over in a teacher’s ab- sence? Who else, but Mr. Bowman! 4) Mrs. Higginbotham is always on the run; 5) Dr. Ross pauses between classes in the lounge; 6) So teachers do eat, after all! You don’t suppose that they could really be human, do you? 71 Laurette Brines Home Ec Ruth Brooks Librarian Richard Dixon Business Mike Downing Industrial Arts Frank Downs Vo Ag Max Germaine Advanced Science Jan Higginbotham English Frank Klajda Social Studies 72 Malynda Webb Secretary Max Lunt Science Wayne Palmer Counselor David Olsen Barbara Stauffer Music Health P.E.

She supervises a staff of five including Marilyn Roberts, Ellen Billingsley, Olga iglacies, Daphene Wilkes, and Lois Nichols. In addition to daily meal preparation, the cafeteria personnel have prepared several banquet meals for special occasions during the year. To the right. Mrs. Gould sorts out beans for tomorrow’s lunch. Below, Daphene is caught off guard at the sink, while to the right, Olga and Marilyn look like they're having great fun with the dishes. Maintenance Staff The school is very dependent upon the work done by the main- tenance staff. In spite of irregular hours and spur-of-the-moment re- quests, these workers remain ready to help teachers and stu- dents in a variety of ways. To the right, we see Marie vacuuming an office in the gym, while Johnny and Top- per relax momentarily between jobs. 74 OUR YEAR 1980 76 Norman Dewey Donna Dixon Jerry Dorland Melodie Duffey Becky Duncan Fairlene Foote Alfonso Garcia Virginia Garcia Cody Germaine Ruben Good Donna Guerra Bill Harmon 77 F R E S H M E N Tricha Herrera Gina Holder Ruby Holliday Zona Hooper Greg Johns Dawnell Jones Charlie Kasparian Crystal Malaney Mike McCarty Charlie McCluskey Donna McCurdy Aaron Mendez Kathy Merrell Becky Miller Paul Moore Darren Morris 78 F R E S H M E N Mark Perez Stanley Peterson Evan Price Mike Richins Susan Rutherford Troy Thygerson Rhonda Weathers Brad White In their first year at D.H.S. the freshman class began to learn about fund raising.

Art Art Classes are enjoyed by many DHS students as an op- portunity for improving skills and working in various media. Here Pam poses as a model for Scott as Mr. Clothier looks on. Business A variety of business related skills are taught in the business department. Data processing, the newest curriculum addi- tion, was fun for Mr. Dixon as he is shown here presenting a problem to baffle his class. Science Two years of required science provide the opportunity for a lot of lab work. The frog pre- sents a problem for Charlie; he can’t bear to touch it. The mad scientists below concentrate on the aquarium, while Joel works diligently on his chemistry experiment. Physical education PE classes give students a chance for plenty of exercise, as they work in a variety of sports. To the left, Troy concen- trates on his basketball. Jerry and Kellie aren’t concentrat- ing much at all on badminton; Steve gives Denise a few pointers. Speech The new one-semester course in Speech gave students practice in a variety of speaking situations. On a demonstration speech, Joel adequately showed the fea- tures of his compound bow, while below, Bret and Derek demonstrated how to make taffy, before inviting other class members to share in the fun. 97 Wood Shop Students complete many projects in the wood shop, as they study the basics of construction. The boys pictured here watch Mr. Downing intently, but below, some strays managed to get into the shop. Home Ec Another area with a lot of dif- ferent things to do is Home Ec. Tanya and Cathy, to the right, work with their sewing projects. Below, Gina must really be tickled with her foods results.

To the left, freshmen students work on their notebooks. Below Mr. Downs lends a hand to the welders, but how did Patty sneak in? Social Studies Back to basics! The required Social Studies classes give all the juniors and seniors a chance to get together and catch up on world and school events. To the left, Debbie pre- sents an argument to the rest of the class with the encouragement of her crew. The senior girls, except for Carol, aren’t too con- cerned with government. 99 English It takes three teachers to cov- er the English and related courses, which are required of every student. To the right, a freshman English class concen- trates on a reading assignment. Below, Kevin, with his famous hat, has been working away. Inside right, Rodney checks with Rick on an answer in Spanish. Journalism Journalism class involves the production of the Kat Chat and the yearbook. Jeana and Laurie work on an assignment. 100 Photo Producing the pictures for the yearbook takes a great deal of work. Here Adele waits her turn at the enlarger. Library And then there was Library. Providing an op- portunity for people to catch up on other class- work, the class also exposed students to some of the basics of library organization.

To each of these, we say “thank you”.
