Keeping up with money for yearbooks makes McKie Tony turn to blowing bubble gum. Making a diligent search for a senior’s book, Pat Tyree looks through box after box. Sharing a look at special moments of the year kept students busy during class breaks. Selling books on that hot business day kept Sandra Hodges on the alert. Wondering what to do with all those yearbooks, Doug Montgomery gives a call for “help.” Getting the autographs and neat writings from friends made “yearbook day” a day of ecstasy. Arrival |3

Memories Come Alive When days were getting longer and class- rooms were getting hotter, students looked forward to any change in their lives. One of those changes came when the yearbook arrived. There was an air of expectation throughout the school—and everyone knew that classes would have to be postponed for one day for the year- book “signing”. However, few students could fully realize what it took to put the “memory book” together. It all started on business day in August when the yearbook staff and sponsor sold subscriptions for the Animo. Hours in the hallways, sitting behind ta- bles, counting money, making change, an- swering questions, and sweating was the beginning of “the book” that was deliv- ered on that important spring day. The staff worked hard to produce a book that everyone could appreciate and en- joy. The road to the yearbook office was a busy one all year. Looking at all those seniors in color made students look forward to their final year. Having a yearbook to share with her friends, Raine Trout, Kathy Craig, and Wanda Whitlow remember the times that have gone by. Passing her congratulations to her senior editor, Rob- in Potter, Debra Powell, Animo editor, knows she will miss a great worker. Even on business day, you could find Selena Colston willing to sell yearbooks. 12 Yearbook Arrival

I980 Prom: Sparkle Sparkle, by Cameo, was the theme of the I980 Junior Senior Prom. The night proved to be a night to remember. Cou- ples who walked in the door had a certain sparkle upon their faces that let everyone know they were looking for a good time. The band, The Royal Kings, made sure that the guests had a good time by play- ing popular up-to-date-music that pleased everyone. The evening came to a stand still for the announcing the prom commit- tee, class officers and the Senior’s grand march, but this wasn’t for long. The band started playing again, only this time they played the Prom’s theme ‘Sparkle’, after which some couples left to go to dinner. As they left the dance floor, they said their goodbyes and with a friendly smile showed their approval of the Prom. When the last lingering couple had left the gym, the dimmed lights went out, and the Prom was offically over. Dancing the night away, couples were so involved with themselves they only heard the music and the sweet whispers of their dates. Varieties of delicious food served at the Prom were displayed in various forms on the serving tables. Smiling for the camera are Wesley Prillaman, Junior Class Pres., and Mrs. Baskins, Junior Class Sponsor. Decorations for the tables included a white table cloth, a big blue ribbon, and a star-shaped candle for a center piece. [| ' 14 Prom 80
