Elkins High School - Elk Yearbook (Elkins, AR)

Text from Pages 1 - 104 of the 1975 volume:

ELKINS HIGH SCHOOL ELKINS. ARKANSAS Like the river at flood stage, Elkins High School rages at times with excitement—the thrill of an approaching football game, the tired but wonderful feeling after a record your team broke, a shot that goes in the basket, a tie-ball when you jump higher, and the bustle that can happen in everyday life—this is the stuff that days are made of when time runs swiftly. When the river quits raging, it seems that our work is no more significant than a footprint in the snow, a falling leaf, and goes no faster than a terrapin travels. We seem as old as Washington, but time passes and the stages of the river change. ' 6 And when the waters run smoothly, we find peace in being with our friends. But whatever the moods of our school, we. the annual staff, record these activities of this our year at EHS. 7 mSm ?• sy .% v XT.

RME 2SS ' fo rr.j-a 8 We are the seniors of Elkins High School, and now the time is drawing near for us to leave our school by the river and to find a new place in the world. We have been on one side of the river, but now it is time to cross that bridge to a new world. Like A Bridge Over Troubled Water”, Elkins High School has helped our dreams shine into memories, our darkness turn into light, our acquaintances form into friends, and our plans become realities. But as the river flows so does time at EHS. And the homecoming of today will drift into the homecoming of yesterday. More homecomings will follow, but they will belong to the classes of tomorrow. And homecom- ing for us will literally mean coming home. 10 i Seniors receive top honors LEFT: Seniors Dawn Fields and Rickey Ledbetter were elected Mr. and Miss EHS by the stu- dent body.

Even the rains that had made the football field a mud puddle stopped for the September 27 activities. The spirit of the day began early as the students arrived to see the decorations on the building. And everyone was dressed in purple, purple, purple. The morning pep rally had more enthusiasm and noise than the gym could almost stand. Purple dressed cheerleaders, football players, students, and even teachers cheered and urged the team to victory. Prizes were given to extra spirited people. David King and Rick Ledbetter won the prize for the best decorated car—although the honored automobile was a truck. Tammy Hendrix won the prize for sporting the most ribbons. The seventh grade was the most purple of a very purple group. And not surprizingly. the freshmen were the loudest. As befitting the seniors, they won the best poster award. The pregame homecoming ceremony announced the student’s choice for their homecoming queen—Dena Counts. And as the queen and candidates sat in attendance, the dirty dozen fought a 28-14 defeat over Decatur. A good dance and band. Voice, ended the homecoming day. A school full of enthusiastic students, beautiful queen candidates, an exciting game, and a good dance what a great homecoming!!

The previous night Student Council worked decorating the gym and raising the school spirit. Friday there was a dinner for the players and pep rally with cheers, a spirit cake, and a pom-pom routine. The Elks had an exciting night against the Decatur Bulldogs. They had 1 loss and 1 win. During the homecoming ceremony Becky Hicks was cro- wned queen and her maids were Mechelle Morgan first runner-up, Nancy Thomas, Pam Boaz, Robyn Disney, Sandy Stowers, and Stephanie Jeffus.

The first record broken was surely for the smallest team. The squad was made up of an even dozen, and from this they received their nickname—the dirty dozen. The team also broke the school's record for winning the most games. The team ended in a 6-3-1 season, but the con- ference ratings were even better. 5-1-1. The team placed se- cond in the district for the first time in the history of football. John Bunch broke a national record while playing with the Elks. In the Winslow game John rushed for a total of 608 yards, breaking the high school rushing record by 88 yards. But the best record that was broken in the 1974 season was not broken on the football field. A winning season gave the team and the student body record amount of school spirit.

Stephanie Student Council plans homecoming activities The Student Council is a group of elected students who serve as representatives of the student body. Each class and each organization have two members in the Council which is sponsored by Mrs. Connie Williams. The group serves as the body which coordinates all extra-curricular activities. It is the goal to provide something of interest for every student, from demonstrations on gun safety to homecoming dances. The Stu- dent Council also works closely with the administration and serves as the forum between the student and the administra- tion. The Student Council has been responsible for many ac- tivities through this year. Money-raising activities have in- cluded a fireworks stand in July, a rummage sale, several spaghetti suppers, and a Christmas bazaar. This money has been used for various services to the students. An assembly on 40 gun demonstrations was presented to the student body. Other assembly programs that the group sponsored were the Thanksgiving and Christmas programs. The events that received the most student interest are the homecomings. The student council planned the program for the pep rallies, decorated for the homecomings, planned the homecoming ceremonies, and sponsored dances for the entire student body following both the basketball and football homecomings. The group is also active at the district and state level. Eight delegates went to the district meeting that was held in Fayetteville. Ann Dingledine and Stephanie Jeffus were the delegates for the state meeting in Arkadelphia. The student council has plans for the rest of the year which includes Sadie Hawkins week. r BACK ROW: Cindy Downing. John Bunch. Alan Baker. Gerald Hughes. Jimmy Harrelson. 3rd ROW: Nancy Thomas.

We realize it will not always be 1975, and we will not always be at Elkins High School. We met on the banks of the river, and there we have lived together in happiness, sadness, anger, cheer, love, and spite. We met, and we must part—perhaps forever.
