Seeing where the bleachers had once been, cheerleaders, spec- tators, and football players move beneath the lonely press box. Playing volleyball near the empty football field, a team member goes for a smash. The “Big Eagle”, Mr. Benny Gibson, leads his dedicated Ea- gles onto the away from home playing field. Here is what the bleachers looked like last year. Signs of decaying wood and buckling steel show why the chainsaw had to be used to destroy them. The day will probably be in infamy when the decree was cast to ‘‘destroy the bleachers”’. Theme 5

The Barren Home Turf George Washington had his cherry tree, and Mr. C.l. Dillon, Superinten- dent of Public Schools, had his bleach- ers. Mr. Washington used an ax to do his job, but in the case of the bleach- ers, Mr. Curtis Clayborne, school cus- todian, was instructed to use a chain saw. ‘‘It was the easiest way to disas- semble the bleachers,”’ said Mr. Dillon. ‘“They are not safe and they have to come down.” 4 Theme With the bleachers gone, the securities could no longer be taken for granted, for the home turf had been destroyed. For example, the band could no longer play at home for the football audi- ences, and the many spectators and participants had to travel great dis- tances to other schools or stadiums for all the games. Our home had expanded into various territories away from home. Putting forth extra hard work and showing much dedication, the stu- dents, staff, faculty, and administration overcame the many turmoils that were faced because of the missing bleach- ers. Instead of barriers being built, relation- ships grew stronger.

Lost in Love, Christy Walters, Todd Parcell, Lisa Haven, and Tony Doss watch their fellow classmates in the Grand March. Before the other couples invade the floor, Mark Newbill and Karen Webb enjoy a moment of solitude. Taking a break from dancing, Monty Orr and Carla Jones share a secret between friends. While eagerly anticipating the Grand March, the participants quickly assemble in the lobby. After waiting four long years, Joe Swain and Wanette Davis finally have the privilege of participating in the Grand March. Because decorating for the prom takes hard work and dedication, Miss Freda Bowman, Stephanie Washburn, and Brian Colie put their talents to use. 6 Student Life
