The Good Doctor Is In . . . . . . The Game Is Love All For sixteen years our favorite Georgia peach, Dr. Jakie Upshaw, has been learnin’ us the basics of tin-nis, the fundamentals of volley- bah-1, and the proper techniques of basketbah-1. Although she possesses a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree and a Doctorate in Physical Education, she has not lost touch with our problems. Her concern and tart advice has straightened out more than one confused pupil and earned the love and respect of all the student body. She is more than just a great educator - — she is a great person and the greatest fan any E.L.H.S. student will ever have. In slow game periods, how many teams have heard that rallying call, “Go, Ridd”? Who else walks around 1 80 days a year in a flashy warm-up suit — or asks a restless member of a gym class, “You wanna go swimmin?” See that warm Southern smile — where else could you find it except on “Mizz” Upshaw? What can we offer a woman who has devoted so much of herself to the service of a single community? As a token of our deep affection, we dedicate Aegis ’78 to you. Dr. Jakie Upshaw.
