With great enthusiasm seniors, juniors, sophomores, and for the first time freshmen started an- other year at Cox High School, anxious to see what the new facilities would be like. For the seniors, the move from the old to the new school was a bit different. The new school is nice, but the home- like atmosphere of a small school has faded away, re- marked Debbie Tucker. After spending two years at the old school, remarked Jim Palermo, things arent the same as they used to be, but as seniors we should be able to set the pace for some new traditions at the new Cox. Fi- nally, after the transition from an old to a new school, the V . senior class settled in, ready to enjoy their last year of high V C JQschool, ready to be the first graduating class from the new Cox High. Juniors also made the move to the new building along ' with the seniors, anticipating the excitement of a new school. We're going to have to get used to the new school like everyone else, stated junior David Eun, but the fol- lowing year we'll be on top of things as a senior class tradi- tionally is. After next year, we'll have been in the new building for two years, we will be the ones to start tradition, and we'll be the ones to carry on these traditions . . .

Looking to his classmates for help, Ted ■ Travelstead attempts to figure out the prin- 1 cipals of geometry.

As juniors, and being the only other class to move from the old Cox, the juniors hope to carry out the old traditions, handing them ■ down to other classes following them. It is with the juniors and the seniors that the memories of the old school are held, a small school with class and character. Therefore, it has been the general feeling of hope between these two classes that the new school will hold just as much pride and character as did the old. The sophomores and freshmen both started their first year of high school in a rather overwhelming building, sophomore Liz Jones stated. Starting off in a high school is a lot different than junior high, freshman Meg Dobson replied. Being sophomores and freshmen, the two classes are usually looked down on by the seniors and juniors as inferior, but in reality they contribute a great deal to a great sch ool. Therefore, in starting off a new year in a new school, Cox High looks forward with GREAT EXPECTATIONS, that a big move and an increase in people will not change the character of our school but add to it. Remember, that in our goals, activities, and contests, THE SKY IS THE LIMIT, to what we as a school starting over can do.

The exciting life of a student is uncomparable to any other occupation. Gsuaily it began with the Monday Blues . Tests, projects, and homework that followed were not exactly as fun as the weekend which was of great innpor- tance. Of course everyone could be seen at the beach. The usual spot was 83rd street, but for the cool surfer dude the spot was elsewhere. The break is awesonne at the pier and at 43rd street, replied Charlie Parker. But the beach was not the common place during the winter. Some people suddenly found themselves working at the legendary Westminister-Canterbury and other part time jobs. The pay is great, remarked Tim Spillane. Kathy Powers remarked, Our chicken is ummm-ummm good. Pollards was another famous restaurant where students worked. The life you lead in high school will never happen again. It is a one in a lifetime chance, said Tracy Gregory, You should make it special. Planning, studying, playing, and of course working together with friends makes it all worth- while. Around Halloween you can find many peo- ple dressing up as different things.

June 10, 1983, seenned rather normal for most people, but it was much more than an ordinary day for the class of '83. On that warm, windy day the seniors took their march onto the field to the tune of Pomp and Circum- stance. Smiles were plastered on each and every face. Success was the feeling. They knew at that point that they had made it. Most of them were extremely curious of what was in the future for them; whether they were going to college or straight to work. These gradu- ates knew that they had challenges to meet ahead of tht Last Class of the Old Cox Graduation '83 Tears came to the eyes of al- most everyone there as Joe Speckheart, the Valedictorian spoke. One spectator said, His speech was extremely moving and inspiring. This ceremony would be un- forgetable to those seniors, not only because they were graduat- ing, but because it would be the last graduation ceremony held on the football field of the old Cox. It was sad to see so many close friends leave, said one student. As the class pushed their tassels to the other side of their cap, Tim Hale dramatically threw his as if to say. THIS IS IT!! And that was exactly what it was for the class of 1983. Alicia Ballew and(Vera Adams)helped with Graduation by giving diplomas to Mrs. Waters for her to present. 12 Graduation Valedictorian Joe Speckhart along with Ju- niors Camille Davis and Tracy Gregory lead the Honor Graduates down the track.

The cars came to a stop one by one and the Freshmen, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Attendants stepped out of their cars. The field began to glitter as the court paraded onto the field. The array of colors of the girls' formal gowns were a magnif- icent sight. Despite the icy cold nees waited anxiously on the field for the announcement of the Queen ... ... and the 1983 Homecoming Queen is Beverly Kidd. ' Julie Burbank, the 1982 Queen, crowned Beverly as her successor in the Cox High School tradition. '1 almost cried when my name was announced, exclaimed Beverly in the height of excite- ment.

Due to the ■fact that no posters were hung on fthe wails announcing Spirit Weetc, it seemed a surprise to many stu- dents on Monday in school to find (Some people with their clothes on backwards. However after a somewhat unstable beginning, (Homecoming turned out to be a great week. Besides Spirit Week, there was lalso a Pep Rally held to encourage ithe Homecoming spirit. The ISophomores pulled off an as- tounding victory during the class compeitions, obtaining the infa- fmous Spirit Jug. Tim Brunick, President of the Sophomore class, commented, 1 think that Homecoming was a big success. 1 was very proud of the whole ischool, especially the Sopho- jmore class, for exhibiting such school spirit. A Masqurade Ball was held in the cafeteria, which was attended by many people dressed in vari- ous costumes. David Andrews and Ted Yoder were awarded The Best Dressed Couple . Ted Yoder commented, It was pretty fun, it seems everyone had a good time. The Homecoming football game had a large turnout, unfor- tunately the Falcons were de- feated by the Kellam Knights During the halftime, Beverly Kidd was crowned as the Cox Home- coming Queen. Shortly after- wards Beverly was quoted as saying, 1 was shocked. All in all. Homecoming '83 turned out considerably well. Smith Cubine summed it all up by saying, Even though we did not win our football game, it was still a great Homecoming. The Homecoming theme brought many clever ideas for costumes. Ted Yoder and David Andrews won the costume contest for the best dressed couple.

Homecoming 17 FROM WORK TO VACATION REMEMBER THE SGMMER OF '83 Summer of '83 seemed to slip by rapidly, like sand through an open hand. Although no one con- sidered summer long enough, it was filled with excitement and ad- venture. Many students from Cox found themselves touring in Europe. An- tastasia Grekusis traveled in Greece to participate in an Ionian village on the Ionian Sea. Antasta- sia remarked about her trip, Oh, it was so thrilling, I had the best time. Greece was gorgeous. But of course, most vacations were spent closer to home on beaches such as Duck, Buxton, and Hatteras. Not to mention the numerable Taking pleasure in the sunny poolside at- mosphere, Bill Townsend performs his im- itations for entertainment visits from out-of-town relatives who came to share in the beach atmosphere. While many students ventured on vacations, others remained in town slaving at their prospective jobs. A few of the popular job spots last summer include Farm Fresh, Jungle Falls, Beach Attending and Life Guarding, just to mention a few. However if one's summer was spent on the job or lying on 83rd street, the summer was the best summer according to the remark from Sean Brennen. The worst part of any summer was when the end drew near and fall ap- proached. 18 Summer Relaxation time was in much demand by the Executive Council after the tedious preparations for Orientation.

It ran from September 28th through October 2nd. The at- mosphere was truly exciting with shows, parades, local talents, foods from all parts of the world, dancing, and marathons. There was a magnificent display of fire- works from two different compa- nies. It soon became a contest to see who could out do the other. Constructed by volunteers at the sight of the Neptune Festival was a sand train that ran from about 2 to 2.5 miles long. Officials from the Guiness Book of World Records were on hand to record the sand creation as the largest of its kind ever to be built. Several students participated in the Meptune Festival's Art con- test. Sue McKechnie, a winner of a Merit Award in the art contest, who also participated in the build- ing of the sand train commented, We had a great time, the Cox art students had 5 train cars to build in a matter of hours. We con- nected them up just in time to make the record: just in time to get to the awards assembly. Other winners in the art contest were Monique Travelstead, who won Best In the Show, and Anne Swap, also winning a Merit Award. Another student from Cox, Be- verly Kidd, a cheerleader, was a princess in the Neptune Festival's parade. She was selected by a group of judges after submitting her entry. Beverly added, It was a great honor to be selected as a princess. 1 had a really good time. All in all, the 1983 Neptune Festival was a great success. Those who participated said it was an experience they would not soon forget, and only hope next year will be even better.

Neptune 21 GET A JOB MONEY IS MOST IMPORTANT Many people found them- selves a part of the work force last year. Whether it was to just have extra spending money, making car payments, or filling up the w college fund, jobs were a must. Working as a sophomore, many found employment at fast food restaurants chains. Other students sought refuge in West- minister Canterbury, a socially acceptable job. Gpon entering eleventh grade one graduates to the more presti- gious lines of employment like those of department stores or in one of the local surf shops. Aging as a senior holds several advantages; one of which is tips. A job much preferred is waitering or waitressing. These provided the opportunities to earn mega bucks. Although finding a satisfying job often proved challenging, many let their fingers do the walking while searching through the want-ads to find a job best suited for their desired hours. Nancy Emanualson, who was employed at 17th Street Surf Shop, replied, Working at the shop was tons of fun last sum- mer. I met new friends and earned alot of money. Since prices were rising and trends were constantly changing the demand for money by stu- dents was ever-present. There were numerous job openings in various fields of employment. It was upon finding the suitable job for oneself that allowed a person respect and appreciation of their position. Working woman Kitty hguyen, who helps out in the family business, commented, the money that I save during the summer helps me financially throughout the year. Katy Brown and Mike Wesley are scooping 31 flavors at Baskin Robin in Great INeck Square.

From Vid Kid to Cox 85 , anything and everything could be found in the student parking lots. Specialized plates were a way to identify friends, and could also be extremely helpful on Friday nights after a football game or basketball game. Status symbols have changed from designer jeans to designer li- cense plates. Personalized license plates signify ownership and it gives you a glimpse into the owner's lifestyle. In order to get a personalized plate, you must go to the DMV, fill out a form, and pick your three fa- vorite choices. Next, your applica- tion is put through a computer. If your choices have already been used, you must pick again. It costs five dollars to get your plates changed and ten dollars yearly. You then receive your plates in the mail two to three months later. Camille Davis, owner of a per- sonalized plate, sarcastically re- marked, Paranoid of losing my car in a maze of parked automo- biles, a personalized plate expedit- ed the location process of my transporting apparatus.

Parasailing is one f many activities participated in at ■aranac, a Young Life camp. One of the activities that was open to every student in the school was Young Life. The purpose of the Young Life organization was to promote Christiany and together- ness among young people. Young Life was a club held every Wednesday night at Bay Lake Pines Elementary School. There were approximately one hundred students attending weekly and newcomers were always welcome. The club consisted of lively singing of popular songs, a humerous skit or game followed by a talk from the leader about Christ. The at- mosphere was casual and friendly, anyone that had gone could vouch for the good time one had. Sopho- more Deedra Jenkins stated, It is one of the highlights of my life be- cause I have so much fun. There was a Young Life club at five public high schools in Virginia Beach. Each club was run by a dif- ferent member of the Young Life staff, who was well trained and spe- cially educated for youth ministry. Young Life was a good place to meet other people, and at the same time, learn more about your- self. Young Life helps you under- stand just who you are, stated junior Kim Brooks, and gives you straight forward information about Christ that involves everyday life. When you bring so many young people together, laughing and singing, it was hard not to have a good time. Junior Chip Dustin ex- plained, It's a great place to go and have fun, form ideas and at the same time learn about Jesus in a way that is easy to understand. Young Life 29 Being in chorus takes up a lot of time, yet many students find it a rewarding diver- sion. These students perform commend- ably at the Christmas assembly. 30 Christmas CHRISTMAS AT COX SCA PLAYS SANTA CLAGS Around the middle of Decem- ber many students become ex- cited over the long-awaited Christmas break. During the week before the Holidays, most teachers decided to give their last minute tests. It was after these tests that the stu- dents of Cox High School at- tended assemblies presented by the cheerleaders, faculty, band and chorus. At the cheerleaders' assembly Miss Fowlkes paid a visit to the student body as Santa Claus delivering to many boys and girls little spirit basketballs. The band, along with the chorus, gave a stunning perfor- mance that was actually taped and played over the radio. We had practiced and prepared for this a long time , stated band drummer David Dale, It was a performance that we were very proud of. Not only was this a time for fun but also a time for giving. The SCA presented a needy family with a full course meal and gift. The Cox Medical Association was also involved with the Christmas spirit by decorating a tree and placing it in the school foyer. Christmas is a time to show your spir it toward your fellow man and at Cox, 1 feel we follow in this tra- dition. remarked senior Shawna Wood. (ffe.

SPORTS, AND FGN STUDENT LIFE AFTER TWO O'CLOCK Staying after school was a ma- jor part of schiooling for many stu- dents. There was always something happening after two o'clock, whether it was sports practice, S.CA meetings year- book meetings, language clubs, Key clubs and so on. Extra curricular activities were not only enjoyable, but they could also be helpful when filling out college applications. Another great aspect of extracurricular ac- tivities was that there are different clubs and activities for every type of student. For example Kevin Schneider, President of Key Club, Being the barer of bad news, Connie Mc- Kenzie phones home with information of her after school detainment. said I got involved in Key Club because it sounded interesting and working with the community would be informative. There were many different rea- sons for getting involved. Lee Clark, a junior, explained, 'Extra- curricular activities help make school more barable and it is a great way of learning to deal with people. One other reason for be- coming involved was just for fun. Besides that, it was a good way to meet fellow classmates and to be- come more familiar with the fac- ulty.

Singing, break dancing, music instruments, ballet performances, and bike stunts were but a few of the acts performed the night of the talent show. On January 17, the sophomore class sponsored a very successful talent show. Once a tradition at Cox, the revival of dis- playing inborn talents was once again reborn. Outstanding performances were recognized by cash prizes for first, second and third places. The winners were respectively Mike Barriskill, who has performed with the New York Ballet and has been accepted to the High School of Performing Arts in hew York, gracefully danced his way into first place. The Shoe Shine Boys placed second break dancing to the new- est rhythms. Third place was a toss up between Amy Gallop on the piano, and Chris Shellhammer and Rob Goddek's dare-devil bike stunts. Other artistically inclined stu- dents have had their chance in the lime-light through other produc- tions at Cox. These include THE MIGHT THOREAG SPENT IN JAIL, which was held in the fall, and the spring musical, THE MAN FROM LA MANCHA. Will Hayden sung the lead role in the musical, and Chris O'Niel succeded in a major role in the one act play. Although not always evident, there is a hidden talent within ev- eryone. It's those that discover their inborn talents and develop them to their fullest ability that de- fine the difference between merely existing and successful achieve- ment.

This phrase was well ad- vertised during the week of February 10-12. It was seen on the backs of T-shirts, on banners plastered on the walls and on the lips of many proud Falcons. Making its debut at Cox, Pride Week was explored, hopefully to continue as a tradition. The pur- pose was to acknowledge the true pride of students In their school. This was highlighted by the Cox verses Kempsville wres- tling match. Junior Wrestler, David Andrews predicted this would be the best match Cox has seen in five years. In fact, 3000 fans cheered Cox on to a victory over Kempsville capturing the District Wrestling Championship title. Spirit buttons were wide- spread demonstrating the real devotion to the Falcons, some of which read I LOVE THE FAL- CONS. Co-Captain Wrestler Kris FeltHousen explained, I knew we could do it, but it was the faith the fans beheld in us that helped win it. The last three days of the week special colors were designated signifying certain things. Wed- nesday was blue and red day, in honor of Kempsville. Thursday was green and gold day, and Fri- day was theme day. If some one could recite the theme New Faces, New Places to any ex- ecutive council member they re- ceived a piece of gum.

Girls and guys both have seemed to become more in- volved in this very wide and com- petitive field. Many girls are enrolled at Charm Associates, a modeling agency, which offers classes in self-improvement and make-up, and actual modeling. Marylin Morris, a senior whose family is affiliated with Charm stated, Charm is a good way for girls to get started in modeling, if they are really interested in it. It gives them the basics to work from. Many girls are involved in pro- motional modeling, as in working with displays and handing out samples. Others model infor- mally for department stores. Karen Hoffman, who works at La Modeling . . . The Charm of it all Vogue and who has done some informal modeling for them re- marked, I'm not interested in modeling professionally, but modeling informally is not hard and it is tons of fun! ' Cox High School had their own fashion show, with student models, held in April. It was put on by the Fashion Merchandising classes. Girls and guys tried out for the show and modeled clothes from many different stores. Modeling has hit Virginia Beach, however, few actually make it big enough to model in Mew York. According to Katy Gra- binsky, a junior who models pro- fessionally, It is because the field is so hard, competitive and large, that many girls are actually suc- cessful to make it to New York.

Here comes the weekend! When a three day weekend or spring break is coming up, you often find students' minds wan- dering away from the classroom on that Friday before. The long awaited weekends and breaks al- ways seem too far away for the average Cox High Student. Ski trips provide vacations for many during the winter months. Canada, Seven Springs, and Win- ter-Green are a few favorite spots. Devoted skier Mark Milby stated, We went to Canada over Christ- mas and the skiing was awe- some! As well as vacations during the winter, many students took vaca- tions during spring break. Joy Parker commented, The weather was beautiful. It is so great to get a head start on your tan. Many students, mainly college bound seniors, take weekend trips to colleges to visit a friend or to just tour the campus. All in all, vacations are looked forward to by most everyone. A great way to relax and relieve yourself from thoughts of school.

Vacations 45 Leadership It all begins at Work Shop Earning honors has become a rewarding and fulfilling aspect at Cox High School. A few of the less familiar forms of these honors are shown through pro- grams such as Boys' and Girls' State, Governors' School, Lead- ership Workshop, and Merit Scholarships. To be selected to participate in these events students demon- strated various leadership quali- ties. They were chosen on the basis of their academic stand- ings, leadership abilities, and the ability to apply the acquired knowledge to benefit the school. Girls' and Boys' State dealt with a mock government. It set up Governments on the State and Local level and students par- ticipated in nominating, cam- paigning, caucusing, party conventions and voting. Governor's School was a pro- gram which lasted four weeks where students actually enrolled in classes. Majors were chosen in academic and artistic fields, and their courses correspond ac- cordingly. Junior Leslie Lowe noted, It took up time from my summer vacation, however it was well worth it. Leadership workshop and city- wide S.CA deal strictly with schools in V.B. Students were again selected by the faculty on the basis of the previous criteria. It was held in August at Virginia Wesleyan College. The officers were voted upon at the workshop for City-wide. It is a place where schools can get together and ex- change ideas to better their Stu- dent Government, remarked sophomore Ron Copeland. It is very fortunate that these people, as many others, are able to be recognized by fellow stu- dents and faculty. They are a great asset to Cox and help con- tribute to the tradition of Falcon prevailence. Merit scholarsiiip finalist, Kim Clark and Chris O'Neil demonstrated excellence in their scholastic aptitude testing.

Goin' to get away Where do people go on the weekend? Where do they go to re- lax? They go to one of the many popular hangouts. Where are these hangouts? Everywhere! Weekends provide needed re- laxation and socializing. Parties given by students on the weekends are extremely popular. Kathy Powers commented, It is a great way to have fun and meet new .friends. People who do not like the social scene of parties, often go to the mall. Lynnhaven Mall is a 'good central location and offers a variety of activities such as shopping, movies, and eating. The mall is fun when a party is not going on, and usually you see people you know; which is great, says sopho- more Kelly Wilson. Other favorite gathering spots include THE CORMER MARKET, (formerly CLYDES), FERROS. THE JEWISH MOTHER and THE RAVEM. At FERROS. we can sit down with friends, enjoy great pizza, and then from there we can always go somewhere else, as ju- nior Kim Armstrong explains. The RAVEM and THE JEWISH MOTHER are both beach restau- rants which offer good food and a nice atmosphere. You can find the social crowds at these hangouts every weekend, just getting away from it all, meeting new people and having a great time. Lm I Known for having the Best Chicken in town.

Kathy Spencer re- narked, I really enjoy being in a high school this year. The class of '86 also had more opportunities. This year hey were able to escape the remarks of being lowly lophomores. The Juniors will have memories of the old Cox but their ligh school life will begin with establishing a new home. 1 lo not think the Juniors liked the new school at first, but we ire realizing how nice it is compared to other schools, emarked Larry Mailhes. An air of superiority had prevailed over the Seniors. They vere not only at the top, but also had a whole new school to deal with. I think the change in schools made the class closer, said Stratton Dechert. The best thing to remember s that the students make the school. Anne Swap remarked. To make our high school a success the students need to use the opportunities. As she watched her friends graduate, Sue Mckechnie thinks of the past as she photo- graphs 1983's graduation.

Time To Remember. Although the move to the new ichool reduced the class of '84 by learly fifty students, the treasury and the goals of the senior class lave expanded. Cinder the supervi- sion of Mrs. Hux, the officers, look at the renewed spirit of the class as a base for further success. The re- maining $1700 from last year's jeasury and the nearly $4000 ac- quired from the magazine sale are ust the beginning of this year's re- sources. The participation and cohesive- ness the seniors exhibit in fund- raising so far have led to the planning of other projects. The ob- jectives include prom, graduation, and a gift to the school, but the officers current attention is on quality rather than quanity for the class of '84. One of the group's broad goals in that vein, says Monique Travel- stead, is to make this the most unique year, the best year because of our situation: the first senior class in the new school. A one-of- kind year for a one-of-kind class. That same enthusiasm is shared by the other officers in their planning to make their final year of public education a time to remem- ber. The pride that comes with the rank of being a senior, the antici- pation of stepping out into the world, has president, Karen Ritter optimistic about the participation and unity needed to meet tradi- tional challenges and to leave orig- and start new traditions. If events inal lasting marks on Cox. Being continue on their current course, the first senior class in the new then there is no reason to doubt school, as Karen put it, gives us Karen Ritter's conclusion: I think the opportunity to set examples this year will be a successful one.

The float had een planned out down to the last letail. The class of '84's theme was A Classic Adventure. The idea was onceived from The Jungle Book )ecause the panther is a character aken from the story. Lisa Black was ielegated to paint the scenes di- ectly from the book, My mom and stayed up until 2:00 a.m. one night o flnish one of the paintings. Day 1: Members of the class showed up to begin working. Mate- rials were bought. We started work- ing immediately; it was great, commented Carol Baker, senior homecoming chairman. Day 2: Stufflng the chicken wire began. My dog baptized our stuffed bush, which shows how realistic our bush was, said Liz Armstrong. Day 3: It began to rain, which forced everyone to discontinue working, however Lisa Black contin- ued to paint. Day 4: It rained again. The presi- dents of all the clubs were called to- gether to the SCA room for an emergency meeting. They reluc- tantly decided to cancel the home- coming parade. The one year the class of 84 has a great idea and even had it accomplished, it gets can- celed, said Debbie Tucker. The night of the game a few se- niors worked hours in order to com- plete the float. The float was ready to go on display.

The Creation of the Panther At the beginning of our sopho- nore year, we were already deciding )n a class symbol and colors. With he arrival of our senior year the tra- ditional class emblem had to be tainted. The job was assigned to onique Travelstead, who quickly asked for the help of her fellow Art ive AP students. The first free weekend finally ar- ived, and Monique, Vera Adams liind Sue McKechnie began the vork. They soon decided to work ogether on each section of the two B' X 4' plywood sheets. This way, the artists caught each others mistakes and helped one another through the ough spots. True, the result was a well propor- tioned, neat panther. Yet after an en- tire afternoon of three perfectionist artists working together, disappoint- ments and disagreements easily arose. After a week or two, Vera, Moni- que, and Sue were able to look at the crouching panther once more: 'We needed a break from this thing; we can laugh about it now, Monique sighed. Paint brushes ready, the final stages began. After many coats of black, brown, blue, green, and silver, the panther was brought to life. Finally finished, the panther will hang on the front wall of the school building, continuing the senior class tradition.

It is 1e special night when the juniors iceive their class rings. Rings are idered in October, and they are tyen to the couples as they pre- |ire to walk over the traditional I idge at the dance. Last year's Ring Dance was held . the Lake Wright Motel, and the •erne was, We've Got Tonight. nner was included with the thirty )llar ticket price, but many cou- es chose not to eat at the dance. The couples appeared to have en- joyed themselves as they danced to the music that the D.J. played It was really alot of fun, ' senior Kathy Ramey stated. However, after all the planning, dress shopping, and tux renting, the junior Ring Dance did not live up to many people's expectations. Senior Christine Vion said, 1 thought that for the money we paid, it could have been better. I'm really looking forward to prom, though.

Applying for college is a time- consuming activity which makes you massively depressed, because you do not think you are going to get into the college of your choice, said Kim Howard. The process of filling out applications is a ritual in which most seniors participate. In early September, the average senior receives his applications from the colleges in which he is interested. After looking over the applications, the senior gets ready to fill them out and send them in. He promises himself to do so within the next week. However, the scenario changes; it is now late David Umphletl Loiyn CJtterback — Football mgr II; Spanish Club 1 0 1 1 John Varnell Kim Vickers — Fall Play 1 0; CMA 11,12; DECA 1 2 Christine Won — Debate Varsity 10,1 1.12; Model U.N. 11, Exec. Council — 12, Latin Club 12, Spanis h Club 1 1 January, and the senior realizes his applications are due in two weeks. Panic-stricken, the senior reacts and hurridly scribbles the neces- sary essays and mails in his appli- cations. The waiting begins, but the average senior, after such a concentration of frenzied activity kicks back, relaxes, and forgets all about it. Then the day arrives, April 15. Phone lines buzz with seniors calling their friends, either ex- claiming the good fortune of get- ting into the college or crying to their friends about not being ac- cepted. There are those, however, who are gluttons for pain. These crazed students apply Early Decision. Most Early Decision applications are due November first, and in or- der to make the deadline, Early Decision applicants must work hard creating masterpiece essays to impress the admissions direc- tors. Why apply Early Decision? When you finish, it is a big weight off of your shoulders. ' says Sharon Slivka. Unfortunately, the waiting period is still there, and those fifteen days last an eternity. The letter arrives, and it means one of two things: acceptance that can be savored the rest of the year, or the depressing possibility of re- jection. These relected early deci- sion students must then join th( other students in frantically scrib- bling their regular decision appli cations. Mike Pangalos, who wa; deferred from the University of Vir ginia, said he was disappointec but optimistic. After receiving hi: letter, on the other hand, Mik Moen expressed one word abou his feelings of being accepted t( Virginia Tech — relieved. Next year, our class will be dissi pated and many of us will be goin; to college, and we will undoubtedl look upon our many nights franti cally filling out applications as tim well spent.

It's a common link, it's an American tradition, it's an un- avoidable circumstance — Senior Slump. My senior slump began midway through my junior year. When I took SATS 1 knew right then and there, that I was in trou- ble, said Carol Baker. What is senior slump? It's when you're there, but you're not there, said Valerie Morisette. It's a point when you walk around school not knowing what's going on, and really don't care, commented Dan Webb. How do seniors deal with this in- escapable slump? Kick back and enjoy it, said Squeege James. Try not to think about it, was a comment made by Tracy Swoope, giving a different point of view. However, some people do not experience a senior slump. Chuck Thompson said, 1 do not have time to slip into senior slump, Kay Sutherland added. Working so 1 can go to college does not leave me much time to worry. Defining senior slump was not an easy task; each person had a different view of it. Seniors 71 Super Superlatives The Cream of the Crop A long standing tradition of se- niors at Cox is the choosing of Se- nior Superlatives. This year after much thought the seniors turned in their choices and as Kim How- ard put it, The winners were defi- nitely well-chosen. The seniors have been together as a class for three years and be- fore that they were split between Lynnhaven and Independence Ju- nior High Schools. Kris Kelly, cho- sen as Best Looking, said I was surprised but honored that m classmates feel that way about me. Kris seemed to express the feelings of all the winners.

Ring Around the Finger Class rings serve as reminders sometime between Ring Dance of those glorious high school years. They constantly bring back memories after you graduate to all the ups and downs of high school life. Choosing a ring from the large array of styles is often a major deci- sion for many juniors. The costs and Senior Prom. On graduation night, the ring is turned the eighty- fifth time toward the thumb. Class rings are very often the most important thing on a junior's mind, because receiving and wearing one brings you one step closer to being a senior. Susan range from $60.00, for synthetic Scholl stated, When 1 receive my silver, to $200.00 or more for the ring I think I'll finally realize my high most elaborate. There are so many types of stones, sizes, and designs that it takes long hours of contem- plation with parents to decide on the perfect ring. Rings are ordered in October to ensure their arrival for the Ring Dance in the spring. During the Ring Dance the rings are passed out to those attending. They receive their rings and cross the traditional bridge stopping for the ceremonial kiss at the top. Af- ter donning their rings students begin twisting them, as custom dictates. The rings should be twisted 84 times towards the pinky, school years are ending.'

Take Pre-SAT 's Being a pre-senior, all juniors have an opportunity to take pre- SAT's. The PSAT, or Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test, is spon- sored by the College Board to help prepare students for their SAT's. This years test was held on Tues- day, October 1 8, immediately fol- lowing school. Although some students had other priorities, there was a tre- mendous turn-out. Out of 432 ju- niors approximately 300 took the PSAT. This was an excellent chance for the students to view an SAT-style test. One junior who took the test, Debbie Lankin, commented, I feel that whether or not 1 decide to go on to college, it was definitely a good experience. Once juniors realized that col- lege wasn't going to be easy to get into, they buckled down and re- solved to worry more about their SAT's, than who's having a party this weekend.

This year a group of sophomores were present at every home football game. They came equipped with horns, hats, and plenty of spirit. Pat Dooley and Steve Zanetti helped to lead the Cheers and keep the crowd going. C-O-X and Roller-Coaster were two favorite cheers of the group. When asked why they act so crazy at the games they replied, It's fun to act a little crazy on Friday night. We just wish more people got involved in our group. Sophomore spirit was also evident at school pep-rallies. At the Homecoming pep rally the sophomores won the prestigious Spirit Jug award. The cheering won the vote of the judges.

The turnout of Sophomores for fall sports was another example of the great amount of spirit the class has. It seems that more Sopho- mores are participating than ever before. Coach Al Habit commented on the Sopho- more class by saying, They were an outstand- ing contribution to the team. Outstanding! They were a major part of the team toward the end of the season. They had a great attitude and never gave up. Some of that attitude spilled over onto the upper classmen and really helped the team. Assistant coach Hank Armstrong summed it up by saying, Abso- lutely the most outstanding crop of sopho- mores we've ever had.

The Schellhammer Process A True Freestyle Artist Chris Schellhammer is a unique sopho- more in the sense that he enjoys exotic sports. His favorite sport is BAAX (bicycle motocross) in which he is a freestyle artist. Watching him ride, he gives you the impression that the bike is a part of him. Chris has been obsessed with freestyle BAAX for the past three and a half years. His whole career started when he flipped through an is- sue of BMX Action magazine. Chris added, 1 thought the pictures of R.L. Osborn and Mike Buff doing freestyle were awsome. 1 just got hooked. When you first see Chris with his six foot, 1 80 pound frame on a twenty inch bike you might think it looks a little awkard. But when you see him ride, that sterotype alters greatly. His mo- tions are smooth and flow with no jerky move- ments. I do have problems, he laughed. With a size fourteen shoe, my foot hits the frpnt wheel a lot. His tricks seem effortless but unbelievable amounts of practice goes into perfecting his stunts. Practice runs from 4 to 5 hours each day on ground tricks and on both his trick ramp and quarter-pipe starting as soon as he gets home from school. During the wrestling season he practices a little at night and all weekend. Well, maybe not all weekend , he remarked 1 do have to eat. He developed his own style and has designed quite a few tricks, his most recent being the Schellhammer Process . As for the near future, Chris and teammates Steve Zanetti and Rob Godek, who attends Norfolk Academy, plan to do shows at local schools and malls. They are hoping to get a chance to ride at the East Coast Surfing Championships and the Neptune Festival. I want to do something with BAAX when get older, commented Chris on his future oc- cupations. If 1 don't make any money in that I'll open up a business with bikes. Some of his other interests include hydrosliding, snow ski- ing, guitar, wrestling, break dancing, and boat- ing. 1 love to get rad in my boat and get about twenty feet of air. As for his favorite subject in school, Chris quickly remarked, Lunch! Chris sfiows off some of the style that has gained him respect throughout the area.

There are both ad- vantages and disadvantages to being a Fresh- man in the School's organizations. The biggest advantage being, the Freshmen will have one more year's participation and will be one year worthier of holding an office in the clubs. The main disadvantage is that the Freshmen must rely on their parents for trans- portation after meetings or any extra curricular ac tivity. The club sponsors seemed to be positive when asked what they thought of the Freshmen involvement. They're more a part of the club since they're new. Also due to the lack of distraction caused by the 4 wheeler. commented Senior Edward Garvie. a sponsor for the Spanish club. According to Ms. Catherine Merritt, one third of the Key club members were Freshmen. Their desire to be part of the school is encouraging. Getting an early start is going to build up to an unforgetta- ble Senior year. The Freshmen as a whole seemed very much a part of the new high school.

After tallying the results, sev- eral ninth grade students were asked why they answered as they did When he was told he was voted favorite Freshman teacher, Mr. Gary Hartranft said he was very proud to be named so. Rosemary Nabors was asked why she chose him. He's super funny, and he puts himself on the stu- dents' level when he talks to us. Chosen as the favorite hang-out was Lynn- haven Mall. Cindy Tucker gave a few reasons why. I like Lynnhaven Mall because it's a great place to go on the weekends and meet people. It's also a good place to get away from home. Ninth graders chose Z-104 as the favorite radio station. Sarah Ashton explains why she voted as she did. It plays a variety of music, and the music I like. The television show MTV has been stead- ily gaining popularity among first year stu- dents. It shows a variety of groups acting out our favorite songs, and it's on twenty-four hours a day. The most popular movie this year turned out to be Risky Business, a film about the trials of young love. Why was it chosen to be number one? Answered Nell MacEachern, Tom Cruise, why else?

She realizes that there are so many things which need to be taken care of, i.e. the heating and air con- ditioning systems. Some teachers and stu- dents don't realize what has to be done, says Mrs. Waters. It is frustrating to satisfy the needs of everyone. Despite that, Mrs. Waters is very proud to show off the school. The facility is phenom- enally impressive. The features are unique to other schools. I like the foyer, the wide halls and the traffic, pattern, she said. Mrs. Waters is also very pleased about the attitudes that students have about the school. She feels they have adjusted very well to the new surroundings. Although I know there is still some nostalgia for the Old Cox. especially by the seniors, said Mrs. Waters. I am confident as the year goes on, the new school will compensate for it. What are some goals Mrs. Waters has for the new school? Well, academically she would like to continue the excellence in the academic accomplishments, and try to en- courage the students to take advantage of the opportunities available at Cox, such as industrial arts, homemaking, and business. And for the building, she would like to con- tinue to enhance the appearance of it, land- scape the campus, and add some decorative touches to the areas, like the library, main foyer, and cafeteria, which the students use.

Faculty 105 Falcon Guardians Satisfaction Guaranteed Before becoming a high school counselor, she was with the Chap- ter One Program helping students achieve in reading and mathemat- ical areas. She has also taught grades one through six. In fact, some of the students she had when she taught the fourth grade are her students now. Being able to see how they are performing as students and as people is a real plus because when I was at the ele- mentary school I never saw their finishing point, and now I am help- ing them achieve it. This is why counseling is so rewarding. The best part about being a high school counselor, stated Mrs. Scarborough, is the satisfac- tion in knowing that I am helping students through school. This takes a lot of dedication, and I am overwhelmed with paper work but every bit is worth it. Mrs. Scarborough is new to high school counseling. So, to become acquainted with this job she be- came the chairperson for the Senior Scholarships Program. Through this she has met many seniors who have made her be- lieve that the seniors are on track. They know what they are doing and where they are going. They are not afraid to ask questions which is pleasing to see because that means the students and teachers are able to communicate with one another.

For the love of teaching There are many reasons for be- coming a teacher as there are teachers. Although, some of the reasons for ensuing a profession as a teacher are rare and extrava- gant, but most do it because they love to teach kids. To become a teacher one must obtain a bachelors degree and a state teaching certificate. This in- volves many qualifications and va- ries from state to state. You must also complete 6 hours of classes every 5 years in your field. Most teachers said they became teachers for the love of the job and that they felt it was one of the most important jobs in the country. Miss Merritt commented a teacher can be the most influential person in a students life. They all agreed that there is a lot of fun to be found in teaching and that they are proud when they see students comprehending and learning new things. Some teachers teach just for money, but there aren't too many of those. Mr. Hoots said that he started just so he could live at the beach, but has since come to really enjoy teaching. Another teacher said he became a teacher so that he could coach athletics. Mrs. Davis added, It was one of the few options open for an En- glish major. These are just a few examples of why someone becomes a teacher. And if you want to hear more, just ask a teacher. f Happily, M s. Pam Cummings shows (Ro- bert Wilcox his grades.

Those thoughts don't enter their minds until they pull their cars into the parking lot on that first day of school and see all of those vul- nerable students. Actually, teachers look forward to their summer vacations for the same reasons as we do. They en- joy being lazy and laying on the beach soaking up the rays. Janet Brubaker said, After moving up here and finishing up decorating the house, I went to the beach everyday. Mrs. Meola Walker looks up to check on her Calculus class while they take a test. However, some teachers do not stay around Va. Beach for the summer. Some enjoy taking vaca- tions away from the resort city. Tom Smith said, My wife and I went to Baltimore, where we saw the Orioles and toured the aquar- ium. I also went golfing and sail- ing. Kim Hux said that she went to Michigan to visit her parents, and she played with daughter, Courtney. And then we have some teachers who are so devoted to the educational process that they be- come students during the sum- mer. For instance, Amelia Fermil worked on her masters at ODCi. Then before they knew it, it was the last week in August and it was time to get back to making our lives miserable. Ginny James — World History, Geography; Coll. of Wm. Mary.

But do you really ever pay attention to them? Probably not, but they sure do pay attention to you and what you say. Yes, I am talking about those teachers on the Lunch Patrol. Teachers like Miss Patsy Willis, Coach Stuart Holland, Mrs. Pam Cummings and many more. They always look bored, but they're not. They have become excellent eavesdroppers. They can really learn a lot about their students by listening to the conversations. For instance, Monday is always a good day to find out what hap- pened over the weekend: Who was seen with whom, who got home past curfew and is now on restric- tion until age 35, and which set of parents are the most unreason- able. On Tuesday, they overhear who failed their Physics, Calculus, Chemistry test, etc. What teacher is soooo unreasonable, and just how slow this week is going by. On Wednesday, everything is pretty dead. It's the middle of the week and there really isn't much going on. So the Patrol awaits to hear Thursday saga. But on Thursday, everyone makes the excuse, That's O.K., it's a Thursday. Things don't mat- ter, besides tomorrow is Friday. Finally, on Friday, there is ex- citement in the air. The day to find out what's happening over the weekend. Who is planning to go where with whom and do what with whom.

You can relate to it. There isn't as much theory in- volved as there is in the other sci- ence classes. To make his classes more interesting, Mr. Hoots demonstrates labs quite of- ten. Senior Kitty Nguyen sarcasti- cally remarks, The make-up tests are my favorite part in Physics! As Mr. Hoots would probably say, make-up tests are mega- bummers.

Foreign Languages Growing in size The move to New Cox and the addition of freshmen to classes have made an exciting year for the Foreign Language Department. The new school alone was enough to make the department happy. They, like most of Cox's teachers, had long awaited the move and the modern equipment it brought. But what really excited the de- partment was the introduction of freshmen to Cox. The freshmen are a great asset to the institution, ' said Mr. Garvie, Spanish teacher and sponsor of the Spanish club. The freshmen, he said, have in- creased the size and number of foreign language classes being taken this year. According to Mr. Becker, enrollment in his German classes has more than doubled from 56 students last year to 1 32 students this year. The Foreign Language Depart- ment also played host for two Ger- man students who attended Cox this year. Mr. Becker said they really added to the class, both cul- turally and verbally. The department looks forward to the next few years. Then, the freshmen who are now in level 1 and II will be able to take level IV and V as seniors. Foreign Languages 123 Contemplating the wonders of the world, junior Keith Pride sits in American History class anticipating the next lesson with much eagerness. 124 Humanities Develops a need for Human science Every student must take at least one subject dealing with So- cial Studies, whether it be World Geography, World History, or Government, during his school- ing years. These courses teach students about different coun- tries, the history of these coun- tries, and the political or social events that are going on in these countries. Students learn about their own country and how it evolved by taking History and Government. Many of the stu- dents are fascinated by taking these courses because they are able to distinguish the difference between the United States and other countries. The highlight of the year for many History students is being able to investigate their family history by making family trees. As Tim Spillane stated, I was amazed what a little research could tell me about my family, it was fun too. Position papers are also a big topic in History classes because students can express their opinions on certain subjects that are already history. Government students high- light their year with a mock Con- gress, and research papers. Students learn the procedure of government policies and how our government is set up. Sometimes I really hate all the work involved, but I know it will pay off in the long run, stated Senior Mike Trafton. Social studies subjects set a basis on how our country evolved along with how other countries evolved too. Whether or not stu- dents plan to further their study in Social Studies, students believe there is a purpose in taking it. h. ► The International Relations class hosted a cultural day in which many administra- tors delightedly attended.

Many students take more than the required amount of math in high school. Some students are in the excellerated program and are able to take Calculus in their senior year. Why do so many stu- dents put themselves through the pains taking hours? Lee Ross, a senior, was quoted as saying, Most students today need at least analysis to get into college. Is it just college bound students who take Math courses? No, in fact there has been a large num- ber of students taking account- ing. Kathy Ramey said, Many students who are going into busi- ness management need some training in accounting. Most students will agree as painful as math may sometimes be, it is necessary to have training in the field in order to succeed in life after high school. Working ori iln- 'V hUA III Computer.

I Learning The Arts Preparing for the Future Performing and practical arts were a way for students to express themselves. Many of the students who take these classes enjoy them because many of the projects they do are strictly up to their own imagination. Practical Arts are vocational courses not to be confused with Vo-Tech, that offer fields from Electronics to Woodshop. As Cecil Garber stated, 1 take Woodshop because if I ever want to go into the Woodsfield, I'll have some experi- ence in it, and of course it is fun. Some of the students who plan to make a career of it, while others take the courses to be able to do odd jobs around the house if a problem were to unexpectantly arise. Students in the Performing Art classes spend much of their time creating with their imagination. They create anything from a rough sketch to a full color painting. The students this year to full color painting. The students this year had their first major project take place not in the classroom, but on the beach at the oceanfront. Dur- ing the Meptune Festival, all the high school art classes took part in creating the World's Largest Sand- castle. Each high school was given directions on how much they were supposed to make, after that it was left to make. The actual building of the castle dealt with alot of imagi- nation. This is one project 1 can really handle doing , remarked Monique Travelsted, after com- pleting the magnificent piece of sand art . Monique also com- mented, Too bad it will be all washed up .

Whether a Freshmen or a Senior, a remedial student or advanced placement student, Virginia's school board requires students to sit through fifty minutes of satire, prepositional phrases, nouns, verbs and dangling participles every day. Freshmen start out with sentence patterns, Romeo and Ju- liet, and The Odessy. Sopho- mores study more grammar, basic composition skills and read literary wonders such as Julius Ceasar and To Kill A Mocking Bird. Ju- niors experience what is called a term paper, a Senior remarked, I'm still having nightmares about it. Finally, Seniors study tragedy, analytic poetry, Canterbury Tales, and Shakespeare's MacBeth. Why? is a question asked by almost every English students, when wondering why English is necessary. English teaches you about reading between the lines and enables you to understand what you read better. com- mented Stephanie Rodenburgh. Advanced Composition is a college course on writing.

The anthletes are our ambassa- dores to the community, Chris O'Neill stated. A school's reputation is often built around its sports teams, Jim Sawhook replied. These ind ividuals must learn to win gracefully and hold their heads high in defeat. We are proud of these young men and women who have shown such pride in our school and in their own accomplishments. Why would someone want to be on a school team? Love the sport, school spirit, hope for a college scholarship are but a few of the answers you might get if you ask the people pictured on the following pages this question. Whatever the answer, these individuals have given their all and deserve our acclaim. It is through these teams that a school's char- acter, pride, and sportsmenship are shown to other schools and the public. During the year, our teams have tried to win, but if they could not, the loss was taken with dignity and a sportsmenlike attitude. Relive with us some of the exciting moments of sports '83-'84.

Senior standout Terry O'Donnell was plagued with a very painful thigh injury in a pre-season match against Great Bridge. The Falcons were led by co- captains Scott Rogers and Chris Kreider, and senior stand- outs Marc Fraioli and Terry O'Donnel. The team was a strong contender in the highly commended beach district. The team will have a great deal of returning talent, led by Mike Trafton, Troy Parker, Alfred Asercion, Bill Connolly, Ricky Savino, and Danny Murphy. Al- fred Asercion feels, the team will be a strong contender for the beach district title next year. The team is led by a very tal- ented and smart coach, much of the credit for the teams ac- complishments should go to Jim Snodgrass. The Falcons record may not have been as good as the past, but neither was any other strong team in the beach dis- trict.

Under the direction of Coach Nancy Fowlkes, the girls per- formed a grueling training pro- gram in order to become perfect running machines. Their tough training built up their endurance and physical ability. Major suc- cess of the team this season was due to its long hours of practice and to team unity. Several excel- lent and experienced runners, such as Claye Conkwright, Kris Kelly, Margie Barden, and Denise Ricks added strength to the team, as well as leaders in the field events. Returning members expected tiring workouts when the season began but those try- ing out for the first time were soon to learn of the aches and pains that come with practicing such a disciplined and demand- ing sport.

The team ended up with a 7-9 record. Many of the games came down to one run games where the falcons came out the losing end. One included a 3- run rally in the bottom of the 7th inning by the district cham- pions Kempsville. This loss typi- fied the falcon season. The falcons worked extremely hard throughout the entire sea- son. A few of the players earned honors on the beach district team. Senior Tim Zimmerly, 3rd baseman, was chosen to be on the 1st district team, Jon Waite and Keith Tully earned 2nd team honors; and John Sadler and Hugh Gate earned honorable mention.

The boys track team had a 5-3 record for the season. A winner of two silver medals at the district meet, senior captain Rodney Rothoff felt that the attitude to win combined with everyone giving 110% everyday gave them a really good team this year. With the re- markable talent and potential the underclassmen possess, the team hopes to improve their al- ready outstanding record next year. The teams would not have en- dured such great success if it were not for the extra hard work put into each practice.

Hard Work and Dedication Seniors Lead the Team For the past three years we have enjoyed a field hockey team known throughout the state as the team to beat. After winning three Eastern Region titles and two state championships the team has finally gotten the re- spect the team deserves. How do they do it? Hardwork, skilled players, dedication and a great coach, remarks senior captain Cindy Barker. Ms. Nancy Fowlkes has coached the team for 1 1 years. Just in the past three years the team has won forty two games with only two losses. Ms. Fowlkes is not only a coach to the girls but she is also a close friend, giving the girls guidance and support on the field as well as off the field. The Falcon's are led by six se- niors who have been on the team throughout their high school years contirbuting to the teams memorable success. Four have started since they were sopho- mores; Claye Conkwright, Julie Brown, Alicia Ballew, and goalie, Cindy Barker, with Tracy Swoope and Kris Kelly coming on very strong throughout their junior and senior years. Although the team was unable to capture the state title for the third consecu- tive year, these six girls will be greatly missed next year. Each has contributed to the previous state titles in their own way. On behalf of the student body we thank these girls along with Ms. Fowlkes for giving Cox an- other championship team and wish them the best of luck. Claye Conkwright sums up the feelings of the girls by stating, Even though we lost the cham- pionship on a fluke this year we are still proud of what we have accomplished and hope we will be remembered for what we have established throughout these past three years.

Happy End To After coming off a 7-3 record a year ago, the mighty Falcons survived an injury filled season sporting a 3-7 record. Without at least two starters each game the Falcons fared well in a tough Beach district considering the numerous injuries which ham- pered them all year. After starting the season with a sensational, last minute victory over Princess Anne, the Falcons started on a seven game losing streak. Yet the team lost four games by a total of 14 points. The team ended the season with back to back victories over Booker T. Washington and shut- ing out Western Branch. As for the reasons behind the A Sad Season losses? Tom Mathers, center and co-captain of the team re- marked, It's really a shame we don't have more to show for this season, alot of the players worked in the off season to pre- pare. But the thing that hurt us the most was our attitude. After the first few games people started calling us losers, and we actually started to believe them. Several key injuries hurt the Fal- cons early on. Starting Line- backer Ted Yoder, was lost for the season due to a ruptured disk, tailback Smith Cubine nursed torn cartilage in his knee, co-captaln Tom Mathers nursed a broken hand, and the most damaging blow was the loss of Ronald Cuffee, senior co-captain and all beach district receiver, to a knee injury. Many returning starters should bolster the Falcons for next year. These include Junior Clark Ni- chols, Chip Dustin, Lew White, and Rick George.

Falcon Football A Look Toward the Future The Falcon football team had a rough start but pulled together la- ter in the season to go out with a bang. Starting practice in August the players sacrificed trips to the beach, summer jobs, and going out at night for the rigorous prac- tices held twice a day. Because many of the members on the 82 team were seniors, the 83 team was left with young starters. We knew it would be a rebuilding year with so many new faces, coach Al Habit commented, but I think the sophomores were a strong force and we have high hopes for next year. Although the season ended with a so-so record, the football team put many hard and long hours and ended up being a team to be reckoned with. Before the season started, many were skeptical of the young team's contention for the beach title. We had a better season than most people expected and a lot of times the games were closer than the score showed. One problem reminiscent of past years, was injuries to key play- ers, such as Ronald Cuffee. As for next year? It seems very hopeful. This season wasn't that bad, Cecil Garber commented, It could have been worse. However, the students and faculty are confi- dent that next year will be a great one. 160 Football Senior Doug Baxter just misses a pass tiirown by Spencer Moore in an exciting game against First Colonial.

Captains Kris Felthousen and David Andrews have displayed a tremendous deal of talent with their number 1 rankings in Tide- water and first place finishes in the Deep Creek Holiday Classic. David Andrews won the tourna- ment wrestler's award while the entire team placed third in the in- dividual tournament. The team is ranked number 1 in Tidewater and destroyed the defending state champs Deep Creek 57-10.

Falcons Show Whos ''Chief in Wrestling And Pin a Place in The State Tournament On February 10, 1984, approx- imately 2,500 wrestling fans piled into the gymnasium to see what most people considered to be the unofficial dual meet for the state championship between Kemps- ville and Cox. Although slightly fa- vored, Kempsville took a whipping from the mighty Falcons. Down 16-0 going into the 126 pound match, the Cox wrestlers put together a string of seven con- secutive victories. The climax was a spectacular pin by David Von- Kolnitz, which all but clinched a Fal- con victory. The final score read Cox 30 and Kempsville 19. Most people were looking for a closer match. Senior Dale Schnackel commented after the match, I fig- ured we would win, but 1 did not expect it would be by so much. This just proved how much better we are than everyone else. ' All year long, people were saying Kempsville first and Cox second. But we knew we were best and just had to prove it. , said sophomore Charles McKay, who almost proved he was better than two-time defending state champi- on, Jim Fussell, losing only 4-3. Upon defeating Kempsville, Cox went on to win the District Tourna- ment and Regional Crowns in a convincing fashion, securing the latter a day early. They advanced an incredible 10 wrestlers to the State Tournament and were consid- ered to be one of, if not the, favor- ites to win the state title. Winning individual titles were Kris Felth- ousen, who won both the district and region, as did Billy Wagner. Pete Wagner took home a regional title and David Andrews claimed the district championship. 164 Wrestling Sophomore Charles McKay (105) showed outstanding wrestling ability when he only lost to the two-time state champion from Kempsville 4-3.

Kris will now advance to the state tourna- ment and has been quoted, I have been waiting three years for this tournament and I want it. Cindy Barker is another Cox superstar; she came into the field hockey scene as a sophomore starting at the goalie position. Cindy has helped the team tremendously advancing to state three years in a row. Seeking star- dom she was interviewed by Bruce Raider as the spokesman for the team on the six o'clock news.

These lively girls were seen during football halftimes and between halfs at the basketball games. They worked hard just about every day af- ter school.

Learning a Future Job Professional orient- ed clubs were an im- portant sector of Cox. They ranged from Fu- ture Homemakers of America (FHA) to The Future Business Lead- ers of America (FBLA) and the Distributive Education Clubs of America (DECA). The sponsors of FHA were Mrs. Kim Hux and Miss Janet Brubaker. The Officers of this club were Presi- dent, Vicki Feazell, Vice-President, Carter Conley, Secretary, Kim Hail, and Historian- Reporter Anne Pasley. This year the FHA went to Busch Gardens, held a Christmas Party at Pizza Hut, had a fashion workshop, hosted speakers from The March of Dimes, visited the Ronald Mc- Donald House, investi- gated Comprehensive Health, visited Rudy and Kelly, and also vis- ited Mary Kay Cos- metics. Many members also participated in the state Leadership Con- ference, the city recog- nition night, and The March of Dimes Walk- a-Thon. This club proves the job of being a homemaker is more than just a housewife. FBLA'S officers were President Annette Salapek, Vice-Presi- dent Cindy Kline, Sec- retary Melody Fox, Treasurer Lisa Justis, and Historian-Reporter Tracy Kehoe. They sold carnations for Homecoming, so ld candles for Christmas, had a Thanksgiving special at Bennigans, and participated in The Regional Competition at Norfolk State Uni- versity in March. DECA is a club that runs with the distribu- tive education classes. In this class most of it's members participate in a job outside of school. They hold the job throughout the year.

Reliable and Helpful . . . Service for the School The library at Cox played an important role to three of the clubs: the Nexus Club, the Video Club, and Ex Libris the Library Club. Each club relied on the support of the Library and the librar- ians. Mrs. Long was the sponsor of the Library Club. Mrs. Manual was the sponsor of both the Video Club and the Nexus Club. The li- brary provided a meet- ing place for each club. The Video Club was mainly service ori- ented. Our coaches relied on the members of the club and the Video equipment to tape their games. This gave the chance for the coach and the team to review the game and learn from errors. The Video Club provided this opportu- nity free of charge. Teachers also re- ceived the services of the Video Club. Films, audios, and tapes were available for the teachers to use in their classes. The Video Club aided the teacher by fixing any faulty equipment. Besides servicing teachers and coaches, the members also benefited from the availability to use the video-equipment. For those interested in a career with broadcast- ing, the early chance to learn about video is a definite advantage. The Nexus Club was also sponsored by Mrs. Manual. It studied games and enhanced the playing of games. A favorite of the Nexus Club was Dungeons and Dragons. Mrs. Long the Li- brary Club sponsor ran the club with the help of officers: president Laura D'Domenicus, vice president De- nise Qalgon, Secre- tary Heather Larmi- chael, treasurer Bill Doimanski, and his- torin reporter Richard Kent. The Library Club's purpose was to promote interest in books and reading, promote libraries in general, and to en- courage an interest in the library profession. Video Club members Mike Brown and Billy Haley are peering into the inner work- ings of a VCR.

Under a new The Falcon Press, formerly called the Coxswain, is Cox's school newspaper. It infornns the students of the activities happen- ing throughout school. This years newspaper staff have switched to computerized printing. They are using school computers which cut down the cost of pro- fessional printing. The Falcon Press has printed articles of inter- est for the students and faculty. The news- paper prints not only events within the name school but also events which affect the school outside the building. They take on contro- versial subjects in their editorials that often are of international scope. The Wingspan also has a new name this year, it was the Yawp. Our literary magazine is edited this year by Kim Clark and Mi- chelle Shewchuk. The Wingspan is facing financial difficulty and for fundraisers they plan to have a bake sale and sell balloon- grams, an idea that K )i went over well last year. Wingspan's staff looks for diversity in writing styles that fully repre- sent the school's unique population. They are optimistic and Kim Clark says Our staff is quite tal- 1 ented and resoursefu so I'm sure we'll dc fine. The Wingspar has a history of award winning writing a; does the Falcon Press! and although they ar? under a new namt they are sure to con tinue the Cox tradition 1-|1 v r A m m FALCON PRESS: Tom Sugg, Jenny Jones, Laura D'Dominicus, Tom Mathers, Angle Dyson, Scott Lee, Carol Ruesch.

They went to Busch Gardens The Old Country and had a beach party. One night the club went to a german restaurant and enjoyed a little bit of culture. The big event on the agenda, ho w- ever, it the upcoming trip to Europe. During spring break the ger- man club is planning a six day trip to south- ern Germany, Lichten- stein, and Austria. The students are anxious to be gone. The biggest draw by far for this club is the enthusiasm of the sponsor. Herr Becker is just great, he really makes the club because he is such a great person, says sophomore Tracy Min- ter. This is the second year of the german club and with the re- sponse it has been get- ting it will undoubtedly continue for years. The latin club is one of the more prominent at Cox. Sporting their Latin at the Beach shirts they are con- stantly going to meet- ings, Kertamens, and conventions. The latin C 194 Clubs students have staged mock funerals and mock weddings to show how the an- cient Romans cele- brated these events. At Kertamens, academic games pertaining to latin, the Cox students traditionally do well and more often than not bring home top honors. Carol Baker describes it as, stu- pendous!

The enthusiasm ex- uded by Kathy seemed to pervade the entire team. In forensics you compete against mem- bers of your own sex in poetry reading, prose reading, and extempo- raneous speaking. This takes a lot of dedi- cation, hard work, and practice, but it pays off in the end when you walk out with a trophy. The debate team is going very well. In the junior varsity division David Bun and David Hernandez have com- piled an impressive 16-0 record. There is a new coach, Mr. Brian Smith, himself a for- mer Cox debater and Mrs. Wiley acts as advi- sor, dividing her time with forensics. Bill Cheng, the assistant coach, said it all, It has been an altogether good year, everyone is confident, the teams are doing great, we have several promis- ing freshmen, districts, regionals, and state are coming up and every- body is looking for- ward to another awe- some end-of-year par- ty at Mrs. Wiley's! The Model United Nations Team, coached by Mr. Sylvester Smith, is feverishly preparing for its an- nual competition at ODG in February. Doug Foley, a senior on the team, says, It is a lot of fun but an awful lot of work. We have to know parliamentary procedure backwards and forewards — not to mention the UN by- laws.

They went to dinner at Carlos Murphy's in Norfolk and had a great time. They also collected food during Thanks- giving and Christmas for needy families.

They should be carried on for all the rest of our high school years and into college or our after high school activities. I can't believe I'nn off to college next year, Mike Moen replied. It seems like twelve years of school has just flown by. It is kind of depressing thinking of some of the people and friends I might not see again, said Eva Kapos. here were a lot of great memories that I'll be taking with me when I leave, both from the old and the new school, ' remarked Andy Tully. However whether leaving to go to college or staying to finish high school, a bit of Cox will go ' with them. The settling in processes this year for the SCA has been gradual, SCA pnesidenb ill Hayden stated. For this first year, the new school was very limited. Because the contrac- tors weren't done, the school board was not in control of the building. As a result, no one could hang posters on the walls or do many of the things we were used to last year because, it is a new school. Although there were problems with the building, things got done and Cox had a fabulous year. Being the first students in the new Cox we have some of the traditions from the old school, but because of the dras- tic changes, we have set up some new ideas that hopefully will carry on through the history of the new school. Our new school has viewed itself with uncertainty in the begin- ning, but proved itself worthy of praise. We are a privileged and honored group, for it has been our joyful task to estab- lish certain traditions . . . that we hope will be a precedent nd live long after us.
