Being seniors was once far in the future but someday it will be the distant past. In our annual, we have tried to instill the hopes of the future and the most memorable moments as Seniors of 1981.

HOMECOMING ’80 Homecoming at Elba High School was and always will be a memorable event in the lives of the student body. Despite the past years of rain and gloomy weather, the day was just right for our annual home- coming. Selected by their fellow classmates, Sherrie, Gloria, Beverly, Molley, Rita, and Stephanie brought forth beau- ty and excitement as the Queen and her court for 1980- 81. Despite the de- termination, ef- fort, and a win- ning attitude, the Elba Tigers’ quest for victory was not enough for the Ashford Yellowjackets. But the pride and determination will always be evident in a real winner. After the ballgame, a disco dance brought a memorable end to Homecoming 1980-81. Ss CAMPUS BEAUTY Rita Coon The excitement of Christmas and the pageant was in the air as forty-eight lovely young ladies paraded across the stage. After presentation in formal attire and a production number present- ed by the contestants themselves, lovely Miss Rita Coon was crowned Campus Beauty, 1980- 1981.

Don Horstead paced the Tigers as he ran for 245 yards and 4 touchdowns. Elba 32 - Geneva 0. English galloped through hole. Amison eluded Panther tackle. Bane took a break. Injured Phil Hayes checked the line-up. The scoreboard told all! In MEMORY OF MR A PERS GEORGE EUGENE TURNER 4 $ —_—_————— eS - - a The Tigers journeyed to Luverne to battle a very scrappy Luverne Tiger team. The half ended with the scoreboard showing 7-0. The second half presented an entirely different Elba team as the Tigers scored 21 points early in the third quarter and went on to win a second game. Elba 34 - Luverne 6. Horstead pulled away. Clark and referee agreed as Amison scored. For the Opp game the Tigers were back in Foggy Bottom after two road trips. The Bob- cats were tough but the Tigers came out on top in a squeaker. Elba 14 - Opp 13. Horstead dove for extra yardage. Kelley tried to break away. Daniels dove for fumble. Elba returned to the scene of a sur- prise defeat for their fourth game at Dale Co. The Tigers were plagued by fumbles all night but hung on to win. Elba 42 - Dale Co. 7. Horstead ran wild. Tiger Stadium. Battle of unbeaten ti- gers as Greenville came to Elba. It was a heartstopping, hardhitting game and El- ba’s defense shined all night. Another close one for Elba. Elba 7 - Greenville 0. RIGHT: Ted Horstead gave a lift. BELOW: Kelley pitched. A trip to the State Playoffs was on the line as the Tigers traveled to Troy to play Charles Henderson in a must-win situation. Bad breaks and injuries spelled doom as Elba was handed its first loss of the season by the Henderson Trojans. Elba 0 Charles Henderson 13. RIGHT: Boutwell turned the corner. BELOW: English tried in vain. A demoralized Elba Tigers were at home the next week for game number seven with a surprising Ashford team. Elba couldn’t get rolling despite its efforts as Elba dropped Homecoming to the Yellowjackets. Elba 13 - Ashford 15. Morrow led the way. Coleman and host of Tigers stacked’em up. ae ‘ i 8 , zx y we Hudson and Boutwell tore them down. English went high to bring in Amison pass. Coleman showed running skills. Smith took interception up field. Elba, now 5-2 and virtual- ly locked out of a playoff berth faced a “playing for pride” situation only. The first meeting of these two teams ended as the Tigers showed their stuff and played like they were sup- posed to. Elba 31 - Evergreen 0. Horstead took off. Hudson blocked for Parker The Andalusia Bulldogs were next in line on Elba’s schedule and were definitely out for revenge after the past two year’s BIG, BIG victories by the Tigers. The Tigers, as usual, got off to a slow start and lost another heartbreaker. Elba 6 - Andalusia 7. Elba traveled to Brundidge to face the much-improved Bulldogs. The Tigers’ seniors had a fine last game as Elba soundly defeated Brundidge. Elba 27 - Brundidge 12. Amison pitched. The Tigers closed in.

Selling T-shirts, terrible tiger towels, and having a clinic for future cheerleaders were just a few of their fund raising projects. One of the hardest weeks of a cheerleaders life has to be the week of ICF clinic, because these cheerleaders came home moaning and groaning. The clinic must have helped because they received four ribbons: Most Improved, Super Spirit, Overall Excellence, and Sparkle and Shine. Even though this year’s cheerleaders worked hard and did good, next years must strive to work harder and do better. Good Luck to them! 60 CLASS OFFICERS: President: Phil Hayes, Vice President: Patti Williams, Secretary- Treasurer: Traci Twilley, Reporter: Sandra Sexton FLOWER: Crimson Rose MOTTO: Our minds are as different as our faces; we are all traveling to one destination — _ happiness; but few are going by the same road.

MRS. CHARLES P. HAYES III David Dorsey Bobby English Each of our years has been a distinct unit in an element of time, and the pictorial history of school life in the Elba City Schools as preserved in the 1981 Elbala has given credence to this fact. The creation of the ’81 yearbook has been a developmental process very much as our educational experiences have been. The publication began to take form with the pressing of time-much as our attainment of knowledges and skills, modifications in behavior and personality, and aquisition of friendships. Now that our journalism efforts have been spent, we have recognized that we have acquired a strong foundation on which to build through the rest of our lives. We have accepted, also, that more will be added to this foundation that will make each of us different and, thereby, will enable us to travel our different paths. These paths can lead us into moments of great triumphs or disillusioning adversities. However regardless of the greatest achievemnts or heart-rending disappointments, all of us during our years of hopes and dreams in Elba High School. ’ will have the strengths of the building blocks cemented
