Fairview High School - Yellow Jacket Yearbook (Fairview, OK)

Text from Pages 1 - 144 of the 1978 volume:

The Jacket Room to Grow Fair view. Oklahoma Volume O Published by the Jacket Staff Surrounded by open land and wheat fields, we weren't pressured into a tight space by other cities and suburbs. We could expand north, south, east, and west So that is what we did. We passed a much needed bond issued to build a music building to the Chamberlain complex on the east. West of town Vo-Tech added on a farm machinery class. HELPING TO GET a garden started on her new home acreage, Teresa Elwell waters the new plants.

AN UNFINISHED Algebra II assig ment means catching a spare minute to finish for Laura Marlatt. New courses were added, the sports program was expanded, and other activities were changed to suit the needs of 251 freshmen through senior students during the 1978 year. We grew in even' direction because we had ROOM TO GROW! MAN BEHIND the scene, Curtis Stewart, manager of the football team, takes care of the extras. Being a student was more than sitting in seven different classes everyday. It was expanding horizons, meeting people, and making friends. Spirit prevailed as students became involved in the end- less list of activities. Cheering for your team, painting signs and plastering them in the halls, going from room to room selling spirit ribbons, borrowing a dime from your friend to buy the latest issue of the STING all were things that made up the Student Life of FHS. 6 Student Life SIGNS MEAN SPIRIT and Pep Cl Pres:“Ika Warberg made sure the were plenty for the important Ok football game. to Colora- , band members Marguerite Wiens, Chuck Neufeld and'Lisa Cra- vens plow into the large ' 'spread'' of food supplied by the band mothers in the bym lobby. EVEN THOUGH it Sadie Hawkins Day and circus costumes are to be worn, Kris Reeves, Russell Pester (dressed as a clown,) and Doug Nightingale find they still have a Ba sic English assignment. Student Life 7 Summer Scene Fun in the sun, travel, and work . . . Summer in full swing. The highlight of the summer season for many was basking in the sun, swimming and skiing, get- ting out and riding bikes or finding a racket for a match of tennis. Others found themselves traveling in and out of the U. S. or putting in several hours a day at their summer job. Students traveled out of state to visit friends and reletives and to see various attractions as Disneyland, Six Flags, and Disneyworld. European travels were sought by three teachers, Mrs. Bums, Mrs. Steel, and Ms. Lovejoy. With nothing on the t.v. but reruns, frequent trips were made to Enid to see the top movies of the summer. 1 'Outlaw Blues, M n Star Wars,'1 The Spy Who Loved Me,'' and '' Smokey and the Bandit'' were the crowd-drawing mov- ies of the season. The death of Elvis Presley on August 16, made the headlines of practically every newspaper printed. The King of Rock and his unique style greatly influ- enced our music as well as our lives. Toward the end of August it was evi - dent that the beginning of school was near. Football boys showed up two weeks before school to begin grueling two-a-day workouts. Teachers also took a head start and were found mark- ing new books, rearranging their class- rooms , and just generally preparing for the new school year. SURROUNDED BY mountains of '77 year- books, Paula Pool begins the long process of checking all the new books for mistakes. 8 Student Life BlVItiP TESTING WHEAT is routine work for Sr. Cathy Inman at her summer job at the CO-OP Elevator. BACK TO school means work for teachers too! Mr. Dahlem finds himself moving, cleaning, and rear- ranging all the bottles, test-tubes, equipment, and chemicals in the process of switching classrooms. SEEING IF they can hack it, the football players begin practice two weeks before the beginning of school with those 11 always funn two-a- days.

FEEDING THEIR faces at the water- melon feed, Marguerite Wiens and Kellye Cravens gorge themselves. WITH A feeling of great accomplish- ment, Chris McGolden accepts the tro- phy for Grand Champion Steer at the Major Co. Fair. WITH THE spirit line in place, Jr Cindy Freed leads cheers at the Thomas game. 10 Student Life Fall into School Seed-spitting contests and volleyball kept contestants puckered and ready to score in a watermelon feast sponsored by Student Council. Held the first week of school, it gave the students and faculty a chance to get reacquainted. A clash against the Thomas Terriers by the Fighting Yellow Jacket football squad announced the beginning of foot- ball season. Although the crowd roared and the fans cheered, the game ended with the final score of Thomas 6, Fair- view 3. Fall brought with it many new hap- penings and events. At the OIPA Con- vention at OU in Norman it was an- nounced the '77 Jacket had won All- Oklahoma in its class and then received the highest honor of the state yearbook competition — SWEEPSTAKES ! Honors were also earned by the band when they placed first at the State Fair marching contest. 1 'Vote Yes! was the common slogan seen around the town and school before the bond election. Most voters took no- tice of these signs and the bond for the new music building was passed. The Fairview school system is expanding and growing in all the areas where there is ' 'Room to Grow.'' PRACTICE MAKES perfect was what the band learned when they placed 1st at State Marching Contest after hours of early morning trips around the school block. LEFT: TILT-A-WHIRL at the Major Co. Fair always seems to draw the larg- est crowd. Student Life 11 Homecoming Movie mania PLACING THE straw just righ Jrs. Pam Koehn and Linda put the finishing touches on Blue Hawaii Jr. hall. 1 'Movies1' was the theme and ' 'Star Wars, 1 'Blue Hawaii, ' 'Hang' em High,'' and ' 'Gus'' were all transposed from the screen to the halls of FHS. The homecoming spirit of the student body was displayed with enthusiasm. With an old-fashioned bonfire the students, cheerleaders, and faculty showed their spirit at the huge pep rally to cheer the Fighting Yellowjacket team to victory. The hours of work painting windows, decorating halls, construction floats with themes as '' Rocky, King Kong,'' 1 'Jaws'' and ' 'The Deep'' won 1st place for Juniors, 2nd place for Sen- iors, and 3rd place for Freshmen. Candidates chosen by the football squad for Homecoming Queen were Soph. Julie Molidor, Jr. Pam Koehn, and Sr. Angela Clinesmith. Receiving the title in the pregame crowning was Sr. Angela Clinesmith. Captain Don Boyer did the honors of crowning and giving the traditional kiss to the new queen. A battle with the Mooreland Bearcats began at 8:00 p.m. The Yellowjackets played one of their best games of the year with the score tied until the last forty-five seconds of the game. With the Bearcats scoring last, the final score was Fairview 9, Mooreland 16. 12 Student Life CAREFULLY PULLING out from the school, the 2nd place Freshman float joins the parade line for the drive downtown.

The leaves began falling, radios were buzzing with You Light Up My Life,1 ' ' 'Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue,'' and ' 'Your Love is Lifting Me,'' and everyone was busy with something. The scurrying and hurrying of fall seemed endless. ' 'Have you ordered your Sr. ring? '' ' 'What are you going to do at Open House? I'm glad FHA initiation week is finally over! ' 'The Sr. play is coming up soon, isn't it? Seniors carried play books of ' 'Brother Goose'' everywhere that they could find a spare minute to memorize their lines. FHA girls kept busy writing notes to their new ' 'little sisters,'1 Juniors were constantly discussing the various types of Sr. rings that were to be ordered, and others took part in the numerous activi- ties of Open House. A trip to the State Fair at Tulsa was a main event for the FFA, and the high school chorus attend - ed the Central State Choral Festival and the Thanksgiving Choral Festival at OSU. While FHS kept itself busy, many events occured elsewhere. Bing Crosby died in Spain and the plane carrying the rock group Lynyrd Skynyrd crashed, killing the lead performers. The Pana- ma Canal Treaty was signed by Presi- dent Carter and awaited ratification, and Governor Boren got married. PLEADINGLY, EVE Mason (Susa« offers to help pantless Wesley Ac (Mark Patzkowski) do his kitchej chores. i AS PART of his household duties, Jeff Adams (Bob Davis) mends a shirt in the Sr. play, ' 'Brother Goose.'' FOR THE best FHA paper, Kim Kelly receives her award from Stephanie Dah lem. Fall Student Life 15 Sin al 1 FHS students found it was a '' small world'' when they began the year with two foreign students from such different places as Sweden and Lebanon. Ulrika Warberg came as an exchange student from Sweden sponsored by the Rotary Club. Ramza Cohlmia was adopted by her aunt and uncle Farris and Ramza Cohlmia, to get her out of war-tom Lebanon. Ulrika was delighted with the many activity courses offered in Ameri- can schools. Ramza, who had a little difficulty with our ' 'American'' Eng- lish, was given extra help by teachers and students. Both girls likes the re- laxed , friendly American people. Unlike many small towns, the one - mile long Main Street of Fairview does not close down at dark every night. The city auditorium is so constantly in use for farm meetings, square dancing, family reunions, political gatherings and banquets, it is difficult for the town basketball teams to find time to prac- tice. Mothers' Clubs, Home Extension World groups, Hospital Board, 4-H, Boy and Girl Scouts, Lions, Rotary, Churche- s—all had their meetings and special events. Working these into a more-or- less master calender was the job of the City Council. Working for over a year the Historical Society spent the past year putting together a beautiful History of Major County. Probably the busiest buildings in tow- n—at least for 10 months—are the three schools where activities are constant. The multi-faceted adult education classes found townspeople learning art, gourmet cooking, knitting, photogra - phy, the metric system, wheat weaving and even retired photographer Bill Krouse made himself a shirt in begin- ning sewing. In the summer a well developed and financed youth program lasts for six weeks. In Fairview, it has never beena problem of ' 'having nothing to do ; but the problem of finding time to do all the things available. VOLUNTEER FIREMEN proved the worth of their weekly training sessions when they saved the whole town from possible destruction on a very windy, sub -zero December night. CAUSED BY AN electrical short, Jensen's warehouse burned to the ground as high winds whipped the flames and freezing temperature froze water lines. (Over 40 keys were handed out to whoever was close to help move new cars off the lot and none were stolen.) 16 Community EMERGING AT half-time, fans fill the concession area during home bas- ketball games. WITH NEEDLES AND GADGETS sur- rounding him, Marty Wade gets ready to donate blood to the Red Cross. Community 17 Tin the Season The halls were decorated and the season to be jolly had began. Taken upon themselves as a yearly project to decorate the halls, the National Honor Society members supplied the man-power to do the 1 'hanging of the green.'' The Christmas spirit couldn't be ignored as students passed the twinkling lights of the Christmas tree and heard yuletide carols while changing classes. More active than usual, students planned parties in every possible class, rehearsed for the Band and Choral Concert, and started cram- ming for the first-time-before-va- cation semester tests. Weekly draw- ings for money sponsored by the Fair- view Chamber of Commerce were held every Saturday. Sophomore Al- vin Lowder was a weekly winner and Senior Linda Smith won $100. Once again, history left its mark. The world lost one of its funniest fa - vorites when Groucho Marx died. In Fairview, an electrical short caused a huge fire on Main Street that burned Jensen's warehouse to the ground. A first was make when the students in Algebra II had a birthday party in class for Mr. Rippetoe — a definite mark in the history book of FHS. Ev- eryone also became aware of a ' 'sweet perfume'' one day when Ga- len Kelly came to school after a ' 'smelly incident'' with a skunk. Sheep were in the picture too. Need- ing a plentiful supply of hot soapy water, Danny Cofer took his sheep to the car wash to get them cleaned up for the stock show. PERFORMING WITH the stage band, Craig Edkins plays between basketball games. 18 Student Life Winter STAGGERING AND straining, panto- mime artist Cary Trivanovich por- trays a weight-lifter. lght-inter. r � SELLING COLORING books as a money-making project for the band, Dottie Houk and Debby Stepp look for prospective buyers at one of the home basketball games. A TRACTORS FILL the parking spaces and much of the street on Main Street as the Ideal farmers show their feelings about the farming situation with a Christmas Eve strike parade. Student Life 19 CHEERING IN FORMATION Susan Lakey, Linda Voth, Shelli Zimmer man, Cindy Mcdaugale, Cathy In- man , and Cindy Freed keep spirits high during the many winter night ball games. Winter Blalis The winter was setting in and boredom was becoming a reality. The blahs struck everyone, and teachers constantly warned students to be aware of dropping grades in the new semester. Randy Newman become the big time bad guy when his song 11 Short People11 began to dominat the radio. Particularly offended were Nita Moneypenny and Don Jensen. OU fans were thoroughly '1 bummed out11 when their team, in the midst of a strong season, lost to the Arkansas Ra- zorbacks at the Orange Bowl. FHS Basketball games were one sure for the blahs. Both boys and girls par- ticipated in the Fairview Invitational Tournament and the girls won first Strike place. Many fans watched the high school girls' team zip through the first two games of the Western All-Girls Tournament at Sayre. The last game proved to be most exciting. Against old rival Kinfisher, the girls played strong and won, 37-38. Basketball games drew crowds while activities uptown and most other places started to dwindle. The highlight of a typical evening could be going uptown, buying several packages of Pop Rocks and then trying to persuade someone to put an entire package into his mouth. Fascinating in the hands of many was a gooey, green gunk called Slime. Winter 21 The Winter oi Winter supplied more than a fair share of snow, causing streets, parking lots, yards, and everything else to be covered for practically the entire month of Feb- ruary . The cold, cold temperatures and the large amount of snow over such a long period broke all previous tempera- ture records in Oklahoma. Snow haulted many plans and pre - vented several things, but certain events took place just the same. Cupid shot his arrow, Washington had a birthday (we had a holiday), and a man named Leon Spinks defeated world boxing champ Muhammad Ali. In a National School Assembly, twelve students were hypno- tized by hypnotist Jack Lythgoe. These volunteers, furnishing plenty of laughs, were used to demonstrate the different '9H levels of hypnosis. The FFA and FHA observed National FFA Week and Na- tional FHA Week. The FHA had their traditional Sweetheart Banquet, crown- ing Tim Elwell as their beau, and the FFA had their yearly Jacket Day and Initiation. Traveling became a big hassle, but Jacket fans made it to see the basketball teams do their stuff. During the month of February, over forty games were played by Fairview Basketball teams. Both girls and boys' high school teams participated in the District Basketball Tournament at Laveme. The boys were defeated, but the girls placed first and went on to regionals at Okeen, placing first once more. WARM WEATHER at last! Thir- ty-two degrees is a heat wave compared to the sub-teen tem- peratures of all the weeks before. iWi liter i t i ; 4-.—r EVEN SNOW has its academic value as hearty Hepp finds out while j-� ig snowflades Student Life 23 WITH 3:23 to go, Kellye Cravens tries for two needed points at Del City during the first round of State. 24 Student Life ANXIOUS TO HELP their mother, the Carstair children (Laura Marlatt, Cecil Harrison, and Stephanie Dah- lem) protect her (Pam Koehn) from the crime next door during the Jr. Spring ie in fst from Lt. Miscellaneous Migrations Spring was evidently very mind-mud- dling for a few of us. During the melo - drama given by the speech class, Don- nie Eck walked on stage holding the ' 'boo'' sign upside down. Lisa Cravens and Susan Glasgow somehow managed to lose their retainers and gave embar- rassed explanations to their dentists. Stock shows, baseball games, and track meets filled the spring schedule. Basketball season finished with a trip to the State Tournament at Del City for the girls and a loss to Harrah. The high school baseball team played its first game ever, and the first track meets were held. Not only the athletes, but also the FFA, band, and chorus left many vacant chairs causing Mr. Rippe - toe to ask once again, ' 'Have we begun our miscellaneous migrations already? '' The band and chorus was on the move when it was finally time for the district and state contests. In April were the FHA State Rally in Oklahoma City and the FFA State Convention in Stillwater. Attending the Major County Stock Show and stock shows at Enid, , Woodward, Taloga, and OKC, FFA members were busy preparing to go and always on the go- Student Life 25 BLANKETS WERE GIVEN to sr. athletes Bob Davis Don Boyer, Gary Rowe and Brad Ewald. Don also won the George Eubanks Football Award, and Gary, the Joe Jordan Award at the sports banquet. Spring SPRING ... QUEENS ... KISSES ... ALL GO TO- GETHER.

On May 1 everyone coming to school found flowers everywhere. Pink, yellow, and blue carnations had messages ' '1 love you,'1 ' 'I appreciate you,'' and ' 'I like you.'1 Collecting for the C. F., the FHA girls sold May Day flowers to stu- dents and townspeople to raise money. While flowers were being distributed, the FFA members were busy setting up for their banquet. Gail Kooken was chosen for the FFA Sweetheart. The chorus was preparing for the Tri- State Music Festival in Enid, and the Band was getting ready to go to Canyon City, Colo. On the morning of departure suit- cases covered the lawn south of the school. After packing the luggage, the compartment wouldn't close because the marching flags were too long. A nearby band patron sawed off the ends sticking out, and the band was ready to go. Arriving in Colorado the contest was canceled due to sixteen inches of snow! The All-Sports Banquet was attended by students, families of athletes, and fans of all ages. Don Boyer received the George Eubanks Football Award and the Joe Jordan Athletic Award went to Gary Rowe. At the high school another awards program was held. Certificates were given to those who were members of honor societies and to outstanding students of each class. Cheerleader try- outs were held enabling the new cheer- leaders to go to workshops during the summer. Also preparing for the 1978-79 year, students registered to vote in the upcoming STUCO election. After days of campaigning (with bumper stickers even), Rick Worley was elected Presi- dent. Student Life 27 o« It $ Over A band and chorus concert was held in the gym on May 12. Band Pres. Larry Kliewer crowned Jr. Cindy McDaugale as queen, and seniors were awarded their band blankets. The next night ' 'Hawaii'' was in everyone's mind. The Hawaiian theme of the Jr. - Sr. Banquet had been brought to life by the Juniors in long, hard hours of work. Sophomore servers dressed in grass skirts and Ha- waiian shirts served guest sitting at long tables surrounded by palm trees and Tiki gods. While everyone else had one more week to study for semesters, clean their lockers, and erase their books, seniors finished school work a week early. Sen- ior week began with Baccalaureate re- hearsal. The next major project of the week was Class Night. ' 'Fantasy Is- land' ' was transposed from t.v. to the stage. Committees worked on the art, history, will, and the prophecy. During the class prophecy the crowd roared with laughter when Larry Kliewer came out as Lelvis Klesley. Others were shocked when Dr. Brad Ewald confirmed the good health of Steve Elwell until the morticians Jesse Pratt and Jim Wikel took him away. Once more we went into the hot gym for graduation practice. It wasn't too bad, since we all had a chance to relax and enjoy a good meal together at the Senior Breakfast at Libby's Cafe. Baby pictures were shown, and awards such as ' 'cowboy of the class'' to Rex Moore and ' 'most likely to go bald'' to Jesse Pratt were presented. Fidgeting in a hot gym, the class was ready to disown Gary Rowe when he ar- rived late and empty handed for ' 'cap and gown'' pictures. The steps we had learned by heart at commencement rehearsal were ready to be taken. Fighting a week that was cloudy one day, clear the next, we had a fifty-fifty chance of rain. Graduation night chose rain. Seniors, dismal at cancelled parties, were elated when they walked across the stage to receive that hard-earned diploma. With the last chorus of ' 'Pomp and Circumstance.'' we marched out and school was over.

Romeo and Juliet, Julius Ceasar, MacBeth — Shakespeare seems to be the all-around teaching favorite in high school literature. Memorized lines filled the air. More frightening than the chilling suspence of Charles DickensG ' 'Great ; Expectations'' is the thought of hav- ing to get up in front of people and present an impromptu speech. Al- though the speech class students were experienced in this and other things such as interpretation of literature, commentaries, and one act plays; the Freshmen really had their hands full. Understanding and appreciation of the short story, drama, poetry, and the novel is very important to the Sophomores especially when con- fronted with such contrast as ' 'Moth- ers' Rebellion'' to ' 'Mask of the Red Death'' to ' 'Julius Ceasar.'' Subordination, appositives and ad- jective clauses swim around in the heads of many Juniors as they try to construct a well organized paragraph or paper. Also milling around up there are the six periods of American Literature. Seniors started off the year with Eliot's 1 'Murder in the Cathedral.'' Trying to understand the reason why Chaucer wrote ' 'Canterbury Tales'' the students dressed up as the charac- ters in the writing. Some forgot to take off their costumes. (Maybe they're still trying to understand?) Although with some of this silliness going on Mrs. Bums is still turning out winners in the Ability Counts, Pride in Oklahoma Essay composi- tions. To write and what to write, that is the question. Spying in lockers, in- vestigating cars and how they fit the owners personality, or looking for a golden leafed tree in aut mn are some of the things creati e writing students do to get an inspiration. Improvisations livened up moments in the drama classroom with excerts from famous plays.

Instead of using three tablespoons of flour she used three cups. Junior and Senior home economics student studied marriage. They were given expert advice from Kelly Bartel, Brenda Penner, and three older married women with different situations. What do you learn in Ag. ? ”Oh noth- ing .' ’ This seems to be the general opinion of the Ag. members but ' ’noth- ing’ ' is far from the truth. Between judging contests many work on speeches or planning committee work, such as the safety program, where they acquired the knowledge of the importance of CPR, fire hazards, and color coding the shop for efficiency. This along with the usual shop projects and weighing hogs make an interesting class.

(on pink gorillas?) Science class, from the first time you got to look through a microscope (That's an onion- skin? ), was always more than just another hour of memorizing or 1 'book learning''. Science was finding out the answer to something that you always wondered about (So THAT'S how they ...) but didn't want to look like a fool by asking. By the time you got to Zoology, the microscope novelty had worn thin, but Mr. Sellars introduced a new kind of field trip — Bug Hunting — in which you sometimes found yourself peering out the window of the Yellow-jacket van down a fifteen-foot embankment just inches away (No sweat! You've got a whole inch and a half! ) Zo field trips were not like the ones of your innocent childhood, where you wore your good school clothes, took a sack lunch and obediently followed your teacher through the museum, properly awed. In Zoology, you wore your most rag- ged blue jeans and carried jars of alco- hol, and found yourself up to your arm- pits in muddy water (What's that on the bank? Don't tell me they keep CATTLE in here ! YECH! ) seining for crawdads. You learned Physics, you learned bi- ology, and Mr. Sellars learned that wa- terbugs bite. Everybody learned something. Science was discovery. Science 37 Independent projects like Ma- crame, rug hooking, weaving, working with clay, making collages, and viewing films kept Art I and II students busy. Accomplished artist Russell Pester competed with several other students and claimed first place in the Fair- view Chamber of Commerce Logo Contest. Russell also did the illustra- tions for the Adapt Book written by grade school Adapt teacher Wah- Leeta Steele. Industrial arts students have been just as busy constructing hope chests, clipboards, clocks, and going to Waldons to view the drafting depart- ment. In the month of April the Art I and II classes (with the Special Ed. class) traveled to Oklahoma City to see the Cowboy Hall of Fame and The Okla- homa Museum of Art (which consist- ed mainly of Indian Art).

Sociology discussions ranged wide and far, from social structures to the farm strike, from norms to bass fishing at Canton Lake, from the body rituals of the Nacirema (American backwards) to juvenile delinquents. The discussion of the farmer's strike sometimes became a heated debate in American History with Shelli Zimmer- man , Kristi Cofer, and Terri Mullenix. While topics such as the roaring twen- ties, the Civil War, and World War II were interesting, they didn't cause any arguements. Current history was made when Mr. Hasty became the father of a baby girl. Writing to embassys of foreign coun- tries for material, world history students composed reports. They also compared the U.S.A. 's and U.S.S.R. 's strengths in war weapons. The year ended with current event reasoning over the Panama Canal Treaty and the Coal Strike.

In the sixth year in operation, the Northwest Area Vocational-Tech- nical School is going strong. The Junior and Seniors who are en- rolled, spend three hours of their morn- ing or afternoon, working and learning skills for future jobs. In the auto-mechanics class keeping their fingers out of the way from being crushed and getting their fingernails clean again are a few of the hardest tasks to accomplish, while becoming acquainted with the mechanisms of the automobile. Judy Dobbs kept the business and of- fice class busy with advanced shorthand and accounting plus everyday office procedures. She also helped some of her students get good business orientated jobs. Because of the Agriculture Strike, tractors, combines, and various other equipment were repaired in farm ma - chinery. The Enid State School and the Bass Hospital are two places the health ser- vices class visited; profiting from the experience.

'' Those were the first words your father said when you were on the back roads learning the basics for driving. Since then you found out what the thingamajig was what turned on the whatchamacallit. You would have thought that when you became a sophomore you would have thrown away the habit of chewing your fingernails. Then came the day to take your driver's test. That day you chewed enough fingernails to support five kids. There was the burden of handing in driver's notebooks and the agony of hitting the car behind you while parallel parking. Little did you know that when you enrolled in PE just to fill in that extra hour because you had two study halls, you were going to fly by rubber straps, roll over a horse that has no head or tail, and balance yourself on a 2 by 4. These things and more helped you realize that maybe some other subject would have been easier to fill in that extra hour. 49 In a year that saw Joe Namath retire and the 1 'Champ,'1 Muhammed Ali beaten by newcomer Leon Spinks, old players left and made room for rising stars.

Turning it around, Fairview used a screen pass to down Seiling in the first home game. Hennessey rolled into town to fare the young Jacket squad. Huge lineman with quick backs victimized the Jackets, but the failure was no brighter as they prepared for the No. 1 team in Class B, Okeene. Playing a good game, Fairview1 s defense broke down four times to allow long touch- down strikes. Traveling to Laveme was no easier as the Yellowjackets dropped a hard one to the Laveme Tigers. Medford was the next adversary who walked away with a win. In the sec- ond half, as was the case most of the year, was where the game was lost. Preparing for Homecoming the Jackets spent many hours on the field in preparation for the tough Moore - land Bearcats. ' 'The best game of the year, would be the only way to sum up the Homecoming loss.

Graduating five starters from last years team, the Jackets were not expected to be tough. Sur- prising the Fairview fans and opponents, the Yellowjackets were con- tenders in every game of the season. Dropping the first two games by narrow margins, they finally got things moving and rolled over Hennessey, 50-36. In the Fairview Invitational Tourney, the Yellowjackets placed third by trouncing Ringwood and Ames with little trouble. One of the highlights of the season was soundly beating Okeene who was pre- viously unbeaten. Winding up the regular seasons by winning two out of their last three games the Yellowjackets prepared for District. In District play, Fairview started slowly as Laveme sprang out to an 8-point lead. The lead dissolved quickly as Fairview caught up and ex- changed leads several times before La- veme walked away with a narrow 60-54 victory. Jimmy Schwind was this year's leading scorer as well as rebounder, while Mark Van Meter came in second in both catagories. The Yellowjacket B team was very successful with a 10-2 season record.

We excelled our long-time rival, King- fisher, 3 out of 4 battles, (and they were battles), one being a narrow es- cape at the finals of the Sayre Western All Girls Tournament. Even champs have their bad nights; such was the late season loss to Hennes- sey that shocked the fans and probably Hennessey as well! ! ! Sweeping past Alva and Guymon in Dis- tricts, the Jackets went on to Regionals to defeat Deer-Creek of Edmond and Kingfisher to claim the championship. Area was not so easily overcome, however; Oolagah provided stiff com- petition for the Jackets when they de - feated us by a small margin in a first time appearance at the Sand Springs gym. But the Jackets bounced back against Pawhuska and won a decisive victory which sent them on their way to state. Bubbling with excitement and heads held high with determination, the Lady Jackets marched to state. The first game was scheduled with Harrah. Al- though big and husky, they proved also to posses quickness and agility, even more than the Jackets had anticipated. The starters, competently aided with outstanding efforts from Linda Miller and Lisa Cravens, strived to stay on top, but the efforts failed along with the hopes of wanning another state cham- pionship when Harrah edged them 37 - 35. 62 H.S.

Fairview lost the season opener to the Seiling Wildcats 3-2 in what proved to be a classic ' 'pitchers duel''. Traveling to Ames with pow- er hitting and reckless abandon on the base paths, defeated Ames 10-7. Alva arrived in Fairview expecting an easy time, but were taken into extra innings and lacked literally '' one hit'' of wanning. Fairview then fell into a slump and dropped six in a row before despensing of Greenfield. En- tering District play the Yellowjackets were plagued by Laveme 10-1 to end the season with a 3-11 record. H. S. Baseball 71 FROM EARLY SPRING, Shell! Zim- merman enjoys water skiing at Can- courts, Linda Smith and Marsha Cor- nelsen discover it doesn't help their game very much. Students who participate in individual sports are often more dedicated than those who compete in organized athletics. They have to be. There is no one to push them if the going gets tough — no coach or peers. For some, the tennis, golf, fishing, horseback riding, water-skiing, snow skiing, swimming, skating, etc., are done for pleasure, exercise, to be social, or to be alone. But there are others. Have you ever seen a classmate sitting out in the sticks somewhere for hours and hours in a drizzle, waiting for a deer to appear, just so he can have the ' 'pleasure1' of dressing it with freezing fingers and dragging it two miles back to his pickup? Or have you ever been up early enough to see the motocrossers driving through town at 5:30 Sunday morn- ing, heading for some hot, dusty ra- cetrack on the other side of the state, where they will have the 1 'opportun- ity of breaking their bods and $1500 worth of racing irons? Or have you ever noticed the rodeo guys limping down the hall, shaking their heads at the motocrossers limping the other direction? Why do they don the camouflage vests, or climb into the sweaty leathers and helmets, or strap on the spurs? It's not the trophies on the mantle, but that one moment when the crosshairs are on the quarry, or the instant before the gate drops or the chute opens, and the adrenalin- high begins. The motivation is from inside. EVEN THE BEST golfer can slice one. Mark VanMeter watches his ball go into the rough.

What did the band members get in return? They got the feeling of being the best street marchers in our class in the state. They marched at Weatherford before 10,000 people in a pregame show for a SWOSU football game by special invitation. The concert band made the highest rating possible in district contest at Alva. The feeling lived on when the sta- gehand was invited to play at OKC at the state basketball tournaments, and in Enid for the Harlem Globetrotters pregame entertainment and the bond issue passed for a new $310,000 ban- droom. With all the victories there still were defeats, such as that windy, bad day at Alva when nothing went right. The biggest thrill came when the band was invited to perform in Colo- rado in the field and street marching contest.

' 'She represented us in many con- tests and we are proud of her.'' With last year's chapter winning the Silver Emblem, they had a hard act to follow, but they managed to win the Gold Emblem in Safety, and a Silver Emblem in BOAC. In addition to this, they set a chapter record by having no less than seven members achieve the State Farmer Degree — Tim Elwell, Russell Pembrook, Chris McGolden, Jeff Wichert, Steve Campbell, Larry Kliewer, and Bob Davis. Aside from the usual activities of selling sausage and winning judging contests and stock shows, the FFA of- fered a Private Pesticide Applicator's Training program and distributed Tot Finders — reflective window decals used to direct firemen to children's rooms first in case of fire. [ Civic Activists ] FFA 87 88 |( in Strena) Spreading their enthusiasm and origi- nality , the F. H. A. Chapter took on such projects as a bowl - a - thon for the Okla. Lung Association and a Christmas party for kindergarten students at the newly built apartments at the Fellowship Home. Magazine sells were once again used as the money-making project. Two new experiences were encountered; one, sending two members to CO-OP Camp in Liberty, Missouri, to learn about leadership and cooperation, and the other was hosting the Sub-District Rally at Fairview for the first time. Kelly Bartel was elected sub-district vice-president, which is also a first (and a big honor, too! ) We also tried a combination style show-salad supper for the Mother-Daughter night. The offi- cers modeled the latest fashions while the others ooed and ahed over them. February brought the Sweetheart Ban- quet with all of its usual chaos. ' 'Send in the Clowns,'1 the theme, was played as president Marguerite Wiens crowned Tim Elwell as 1977-78 Beau. Other candidates were Chris McGolden and Larry Kliewer. In April the rally was attended and the girls were entertained by an excellent speaker and luxurious living at the Holidome and delicious dining at the Showplace. ALL DRESSED UP!

Once primarily a honor organization like the State Honor Society, the Nat'l. Honor Society has been involved in a number of things this year. During Parent Visitation Day members di- rected lost parents to the correct classes and at Open House guided visitors to various displays. When a person's name is announced over the intercom saying that his is a member of National Honor Society, it means that he has worked to put himself in the top 15% of his class. If he is in the top 10% then he is also in the State Honor Society. Students chosen for these organizations are distinguished for their service, char- acter, leadership, and scholastic achievements.

With styles and fashions being much neater and more tailored, sloppy was definitely ' ’out.'' A revival of dresses and pant suits appeared in the halls. Only liquor ads and obscene t-shirts brought trips to the counselor's office. Writing on the walls and damaged property were almost nonexistent as students grew in pride.

After grade school we made the move to Chamberlain. Having a real, live locker to yourself was 1 'really neat.'' We got an instrument for band, found we had a voice in choir, and were able to be in football and basketball. It was time to dream about the years ahead. We were going to be tomorrow's stars. The Royal Theatre was the place to go on weekends. After the projector finally stated and the lights went out, we sat by our favorite guy or girl and held hands. When we reached sixteen we no longer had to walk from place to place. ' 'Man,'' we ' 'dragged Main'' and showed everyone that we could drive our parents' car uptown. Seniors 99 Ball games, band trips, FHA rallies, Homecoming, chorus contests, FFA meetings, and school work quickly put us through our years at the high school. Finally, as seniors, we couldn't help looking back before we began looking ahead. It was a year that had long been wait- ed for. Being a senior wasn't the way we thought it would be when we planned and boasted about it in earlier years. Before we knew it, we were decorating the Sr. hall and painting the Sr. window for Homecoming. The day we were told that it was time to be measured for our caps and gowns and order announce- ments was when it hit. We are really seniors.'' ' 'This is our last chance to win at Homecoming. I won't be a FHA cheerleader ever again.'' It was our last go-around and we were going to make the best of it. The year was good for some, bad for some, but the year passed too quickly for all of us. The first nine weeks breezed by, with the help of several short vacations. By the second nine weeks we were used to the senior status that had fallen upon us. We started fig- uring out just what we could-and could not-get away with. Once winter had begun, the days dragged by. Classes were a hassle and so were the teachers.

The second semester began — one more to go. Before long everything was happening, and we were in the last quarter. Book reports were due, projects had to be finished , the yearbook had to be com- pleted, and research papers needed to be turned in. All of those books that we wanted to read, the classes that we couldn't work in, and activities we wanted to participate in had to be left aside. Then the final weeks were upon us. We found out what rushing and hurrying really meant. Along with school work we had class meetings, committee meetings, and planned our final week. Although clouds hung in the sky while we were at Roman Nose for Sr. skip day, the class spirit was shining through. '1 Getting together with the whole class makes one remember more. Going to Roman Nose was fun,'' said Linda Smith. After our trip we finished our last two days of class and semester tests. Then everyone began to dig out any artistic or creative talent that they had. Preparing Class Night was work, but it was 'fun' work and we enjoyed putting it together. LARRY KLIEWER-Band 12,3.4.

With ' 'Pomp and Circum- stance '' being played slowly on the piano we practiced marching down through the gym. A different sadness was felt as we practiced, but at the time we were too hot and sweaty to be sentimental. We asked each other about future plans because we were sure 'ev- eryone else' knew what they were going to do with their whole life, and we didn't even know about Saturday after graduation. Finally the calender read May 19. Graduation day - and it was raining. It didn't dampen our spirits though. We marched across the stage and received our diplomas.

Seniors 105 Pam Fast received an unwanted Christmas present from Rick Worley when he totally demolished her car. Kelly Bartel also totalled her car when a tree in the park suddenly jumped out in front of her. Where was Laura Mar- latt’s mind when she ran into Danny Ewbank's parked car?

Speaking of Homecoming, the Juniors took first place over all on the Homecoming activities. Through all the trials and tribulations of Junior life, we learned to work together, and we became closer friends. ABOVE: SPIRIT AND ENTHUSIASM is shown by Trudy Nightengale and Rhonda Bowers during an FHS pep rally. Juniors 107 They spent their time spread out from the Bowling Alley to the Snack 'n' Rack. Anything from collecting matches to cleaning the Farmers G Merchants Bank. (a nerve-racking job) kept sophomores busy after school. Some sophomores became creative and started organizing projects for themselves, such as form- ing an entertainment band for dances, raising quail, snow skiing, cycle racing, riding and training horses. Sophomore interests range from wall-to-wall pictures of cowpokes- to wall-to-wall pictures of every imaginable rock group, from roping to collecting stamps. Each of the sophomores had his own interests, completely different from each other's. That's what made each sophomore so original.

Faced with getting through their first year at FHS, the Freshman were thrown into a whirl of new activities. The class of '81 elected its first class officers when class meetings were held at the beginning of school. Homecoming activities were a new thing too. Hard work and enthusi- asm during the week was rewarded with winning 3rd place overall. Having to take science and history was a real pain, preferring Home Ec or Ag. After entering Mr. Slater's classroom with trembling knees, Freshman found that calculators didn't work too well in Algebra 1.

Components in a human computer, mythology, illustrated book reports and science kept everyone busy in class but their most memorable experiences came in the congested halls as they tried to cram in as much visiting time as possible between classes. Guilty or not guilty! This question was the result of a 7th Grade class skit after witnessing courtroom proceedures during an actual case. Guest speakers who brought costumes and ethnic articles increased their enjoyment of social studies. The music students Christmas gift to the Fellowship home was carols sung in Ger- man.

After being the oldest at grade school and then becoming the youngest, they felt a little left out of everything. This was soon changed when Lori Cravens and Kara Bradford made the grade basketball team. During all the basketball tourna- ments and football games, six graders were busy organizing a pep club. They were also doing special reports, jackets for books, and making diora- mas. They learned about solar ener- gy, by building solar energy projects.

Autographs and famous people go together and these tvvo classes got their chance for an important auto- graph when they had a visit from Governor Boren and he signed their Oklahoma History notebooks. History and health weren't boring when the classes painted murals of ' 'Process of Pioneering, ' 'Ameri- can Transportation Through Histo- ry, and ' 'The Presidents.'' They also constructed paper bodies of themselves and labeled the parts telling the function of each.

Ordinarily, field trips in- clude trips to banks, post offices, and hospitals, but in need of excitement and extravangaza, the second grade decided to visit the Watonga cheese factory. This provided an interesting as well as delicious experience. On the Musical side, efforts were made to create a pro- gram for the enjoyment of the whole community in the spring after a well-received Christmas program. Grade school P.E. tumbling programs were presented dur- ing basketball season and produced their own fans. Mrs. Becky McMurphy . . . Mrs. Betsy Powers ... Mrs. Linda Slater ,.. Ms. Maxie Lewis ...

Big brothers and sisters had told fantastic stories about things that happened in the big building they called ' 'school.'' And, they had a school bag full of crayons, pencils, books, and a Big Chief tablet. Now it was your turn. You had your school bag and books but you still didn't feel as grown up as your brother had looked. Especially when he left you in the kinder- garten room and you turned around and found yourself staring directly at the knees of a formidable looking stranger everyone called ' 'teacher.'' You felt thrilled and excited but mostly scared. Then the teacher asked your name and started showing you the finer points of coloring and pasting and you decided it wasn't so bad after all.

Why else would every bus on every trip (well, al- most) either break down or catch fire ? They were obviously envious of the new activity bus's paint job and chrome lug nuts. Combine that with the longest spell of cold weather, snow, and gener- ally nasty weather ever recorded, and Fairview's bus drivers had ' 'a spot of bother.'' But they took to heart the mailman's creed, and with the old ral- lye driver's war cry — ' 'Press On Re- gardless' ', and pressed. Have you ever noticed how some other schools look? Look into one of their classrooms sometime, and you' 11 often see desks falling apart, lights burned out and trash scattered everywhere. Then go into one of the restrooms w'hich looks as if it was cleaned maybe after Armistice Day — the first one. Then you'll begin to appreciate all the time and work that August Schroeder and Ray Lewis spend cleaning up after you. August Schroeder says he is a farmer and that he w'orks as head custodian at FHS for a living. ' 'Really can't say I dislike anything about it. I like to be around young peo- ple . I just like my work. Try to find a custodian like that anywhere else. Consider the work done by all the nonteaching personal, secretaries, cooks, bus drivers and custodians and you realize the difficulty of trying to run a school without them. Non Teaching 121 They Hever Quii ore courses? ! But how ever many courses, there were II I V ■ more than enough qualified teachers to teach the sub- jects. Whatever vocabulary the teacher used ' 'Quit ' wasn't in it. Between Homecoming, class trips, field trips and their regular classes they had their work cut out for them. At one time or another they might have thought the task was the ' 'blind leading the blind'' but still succeed- ed in rolling us along to better learn- ing. Two parent-teacher confer- ences , open house and parent visita - tion day, allowed open communica - tion and encouragement among those who participated. Although very hard at times the teachers always seemed to have a smile on their face. Encouragement was one of the fringe benefits of be - ing a student as the faculty did their jobs and gave all they had to give.

This book should help you remem- ber some of these moments and all the people you met here. Next year there will be new' faces in the senior hall. The band and chorus will be bused to their new building at Chamberlain allowing the east side of the high school building to hold class without musical accompaniment. New teachers and new courses will fill the schedule. FRESHMAN HALL is ready for home coming witbJ ’Hang ’em High’ ’ decorations.
