A Flash In Time. Between fourth graders Jennifer Reddick and Jeremy Lee and the seniority of Me lanie Butler and Jay Fisher one can certainly see the final phase of tradition and transition. 7 UjinQ J J [m Breaking the mold was the name of the game. From new angular parking and campus beautification to financial proration and the installment of advanced placement courses, the prism of our school reflected a new angle. The spectrum of simplistic patterns became deceptive as students plunged into nineteen hundred eighty-seven’s individuality. Struggling students acquired an angled acception of new faces, noises, attractions, and challenging courses. All anticipated an undivided unity—no confusion no fuss. Each individual will continue to cherish the Bulldog Look, prophecied Coach David Snell. True, but no matter the grade, degree of involvement, or simply who one was, everyone found themselves Trying a New Angle. While everyone dreadfully worked on getting up by 7:00a.m. and driving into the parking lot at 201 Lily Street by 7:55 a.m.. students again became acquainted with the old routine of tests and homework. Calenders began to fill with plans for football games, band practice, and fun-filled weekends with friends. What was so different about this year? Well, as seventh graders faced the fact that they would be here for the next five years and familiarized themselves with the school, others faced the fact that this was the beginning of the end of their childhood years. So. with these constant changes and steep standards each person began to run the race of life, stretching their stride so as to overcome each hurdle in their path. 5 Top Right: These elementary children create an atmosphere of lunchroom chaos.

Top Left: All middle school hands fly high at the sound of foot ball tickets for sale. Middle Left: Arranging their desks to suit their needs,” Ray Wilbanks, Eric Coleman, and Jimmy Adams make a joint effort in Mrs. Harris’ class. JSo matter the grade or degree of in vo I vert tent, everyone found themselves . . . TRYING A NEW In retrospect, friendships began that would last a lifetime. From these relationships to the traditions of Homecoming and the memories it brought, from the decked halls of Christmas to fighting the cold weather, from slicing the semester in half to yearly banquets, graduation grew nearer with many feelings of joy and sadness. As the weather grew cooler and students began to pull all of their new fall clothes out of the closet, transition set in. Yet, tradition remained as students packed and colorfully decorated halls each Football Friday and attended the year-end banquets, leaving with awards and tears. Yes, from beginning to end, students constantly prepared for packing up their books once more; yet, some realized that they might not see some friends again. Will trying new angles ever end? Thumping footballs across the classroom seemed important enough to pay the price of sweeping for seniors Kevin Simmons and Lee Strickland. Back-to-school rush, Homecoming excitement, Christmas shopping, ringing in the New Year, an-ticipating AEA, and finally, graduation equipped most people with what was called a student life. Tradition and transition, the change in our school, played a chief role in the process of becoming me.” From the Senior receiving his special privileges to the seventh grader entering the door for the first time, all found his place in the student life—school being sweet, sweet home. S T.U.D.E.N.T M.F.E 'HARTFORD. -ALABAMA 10 A status symbol. The unification of the academic challenge, the incentive of extracurri-culur activities, and the establishment of the school in 1908 bond together to form the school crest, a graphic display of the factors which influence the level of school life. This crest began in 1981 by the will of Principal Michael Whitaker and the late English teacher, Elizabeth Brannon. Tradition in itself is as simple as stated by one seventh grader, ... the Bulldogs have a tradition of being the best.” From the Bulldog symbolizing strength, dependability, and courage, to the game of life filled with spirit in our heart and winning in our head, each student kept on keeping on with ... ii The Bulldog Belief Welcome Back—but what is there to do? The quest for the new and interesting is certainly a form of entertainment in itself. As some students travel to the nearby towns of Slocomb, Dothan, Enterprise, or Geneva, some survive by cruising Hartford and stopping to chat at the local Piggly Wiggly. Yet, for dates, the show and dinner” syndrome grows old and not everyone likes to go parking! Adventurers complained about the lack of entertaining activities in Hartford. Finding amusement often took a creative mind to look for the different angle of recreation. All in all, it is not really where you are that makes the night fun, but the company you are with. THE OF US 12 With a strong desire to serve, students joined CLUBS Not only were students active in sports and campus activities, they also provided services for the student body and the community. Throughout the year, clubs spent most of their time learning to manage with what they had. With Student Council President, Karla Sorrells, successfully moving forward before the school board, new requirements were established for the livelihood of clubs. From assisting in a minimum of one school and one community service to establishing a reason for its existence and a written constitution, each club made the most of its limited time. Various clubs gave students the opportunity to reach their fullest potential. While some students tried to better their skills in sewing and agriculture, others took action in the form of leadership and organization. Some students found their duties a necessity rather than a pleasure. Yet, the return of school clubs prepared each student for academic goals and careers. In a nutshell, being involved in clubs usually meant one had some interest in school affairs. Hurriedly, these co-op students sign out of school on their way to various work-training jobs. Taking his work seriously. Mr. Hatcher. agriculture teacher, advances Shane Fowler's skills in this area. 14 Throughout the year the Student Council provided a means for the activity of all clubs; its own activities included the student folder pictured here. Unfolded inside were the rules and regulations by which each student was to abide; pictured on the front was the Mighty Bulldog. Many hours of work and preparation were involved in the compilement of the student code of conduct. Though it was a useful guide on how not to get in trouble, it became a handy place to store loose papers and information. Displaying types of material. Susan Miller demonstrates the skills of sewing to the Future Homemakers of America. 15 SUPPORT CLUBS PROVE SIGNIFICANT Support—to promote interests or to serve as a foundation. Each student is a member of our biggest support club—the student body. All persons play an important role in the foundation of school spirit, pride, and education. Now let us take a look at some of the individual supporting clubs, such as Service Club, 4-H Club, and the spirited H-Club. Service Club members are leaders who have been given the authority to monitor those who enter the halls at specific times. Members are elected by teacher recommendation according to responsibility and leadership abilities. 4-H Club offers an expanse of educational tools to further a student’s horizon of becoming a skilled homemaker and career person. Any person who regularly attends meetings and has participation in its events may remain a member of this organization. H-Club, composed of those who have lettered in a varsity sport, travels each year to the Senior Bowl in Mobile. This club provides the basis for school esteem. Winners of the 4-H Club rally display their hard efforts toward being success. The Varsity cheerleaders. members of the H-Club. want YOU to join in on the spirit of ’87.

Junior Honor Society, Senior Honor Society, and Student Action For Education (SAFE) played a role in upholding an outstanding academic agenda. Junior and Senior Honor Societies kicked off their club year by selling Homecoming corsages. Selling 147 corsages, a total of $220 was earned. This profit was used for the joint sponsorship of the annual Academic Awards banquet and the presentation of fruit baskets to the elderly during Christmas holidays. Also sponsoring a fund raiser during the week of Homecoming, SAFE’S thirty-six members sold 2,000 suckers. After banking these earnings, the club organized plans for sponsoring open house during American Education Week to inspire academic awareness and to buy audio visual equipment for the schools' libraries. Promoting the interests of scholarly students and providing the extra incentive needed, academic clubs were the basis for outstanding academics. Such efforts proved that dedication had its rewards.

Anything from car trouble to pet problems would suffice, just so one made it almost believable. Just simply say the electricity went off or use a doctor’s appointment. Whatever the reason, with the year’s progressive wear and tear, student’s were entertained by the risky endeavor of Looking for the Action. Trick or treat!

What did one do when he had a book to read for six weeks, and it was the sixth week, and the book had 528 pages? Sometimes it rained—and when it rained, it poured. With cluttered schedules, students often found the remainder of the day standing before them as a mountain too steep to climb. Yet everyone, for at least nine months, had to keep on keeping on. When one felt as if he had used his last ounce of strength, creativity, or temperance, a cuddly friend could be counted on to make the days BEARABLE. Embracing his talking bear.

Medical problems and the Iran scandal made America worry that his patented jauntiness was gone. Yet, the ‘‘jelly bean” man triumphed with an informative look at tax reform upon entering the Wiregrass area. Dothan, Alabama Welcomes PRESIDENT REAGAN Priding himself on his common touch, President Reagan sat down on July 10 to southern cooking at the Dothan Civic Center, alive with an expectant audience. As a revolutionary tax bill was informally discussed, fried chicken and mashed potatoes were served up to top a historical meal. A SALUTE TO OUR FAIR LADY Happy Hundredth to America’s Idol Born of liberty in New York Harbor, the Lady became a symbol of freedom and ‘‘Mother of Exiles to those who were yearning to breathe free. Built of copper and iron, those who looked up to her found she had a soul of fire. Restored and rebuilt, she now celebrated her hundredth birthday. Four days of patriotic parties marked Lady Liberty’s birthday. There was a swearing-in of new citizens, Hollywood-style song and dance, and the largest display of fireworks ever before a crowd of six million at New York Harbor. Surviving five wars and eighteen presidents, Miss Liberty remained America's favorite icon, an enduring symbol of the country’s idealism. School Term 1986-87 50 Cents COCAINE KILLS: Just Say No! Turning off to drugs begins with education. They were the best days of his life; the legendary Boston Celtics had drafted him, endorsing sneakers with a $1.6 million deal. Celebrating with friends at the University of Maryland, he snorted so much cocaine that they told him to be careful. Then he collapsed. The death of 22-year-old Len Bias riveted the nation’s attention. It was suddenly clear: the glamour drug, cocaine, could kill even the lightest user, striking at random. A burn of anger spread across the country as crack, a cheap, highly addictive new coke form, hit the drug's murdering market. Congress passed a sweeping, costly drug bill. America finally believed that drugs were not fun and games. Though the national attitude began to change, the victory was a hollow one. There was only a momentary ripple in the flow of narcotics. Yet, the crack down on drugs held a controversial side itself as testing federal employees aroused mixed emotions about its effectiveness and reliability. Reagan scurried to the front of the parade, announcing his own demand-side program, a combination of moral persuasion and drug education. In an exclusive interview with Newsweek. Reagan said it “ would not be rhetoric ... The main thrust has got to be to get the people themselves to turn off to drugs.” A new toughness on drugs magnified education as a key area for action. Schools were encouraged to suspend drug users and pushers. Some wanted federal funding for schools with a strong drug program. The main goal was to create an atmosphere in which peer pressure could work against drug use. The nation seemed to have formed a conclusion that something new must be tried to discourage drug use. There was clearly no magic bullet, and the task cannot be done overnight.

From financial proration to problems with student attendance, the academic atmosphere faced a challenge. Preparation was the name of the game. Yes, teacher preparedness as well as student readiness was important. Sometimes academics involved much more than textbooks and homework. There were the fun courses that students looked forward to everyday; yet, there were classes which required deep dedication. All in all, academics were the challenge to grow with extra time and extra effort. A C A D E M I C S ENGLISH English is a required subject that each student must pass on each level in order to graduate. This course starts with the basics of grammar and progresses to application in writing and knowledge of literature.

DRIVER’S EDUCATION Driver's Education is an elective which is offered for one semester at G.C.H.S. Students are in the classroom for six weeks learning basic skills to prepare them for actual driving. For the remainder of the semester, students are ready to practice techniques studied in the classroom. PHYSICAL EDUCATION The Physical Education program is one of the few that have advanced for the school year. Weight Training, being the newest member of the program, is offered to those who want to learn the basics of weight lifting and muscle development. Weight Training and P.E. involve physical and mental skills along with devotion and hard work. Both programs offer the basics of good exercise and each stresses good sportsmanship. MUSIC This year at G.C.H.S., beginner band is offered not only to fifth and sixth graders, but also high school students. These classes work hard to earn a place in the G.C.H.S. marching and concert band. The marching band performs at half-time during football games, performs in parades, and represents the school and city in marching contests around the state. The concert band performs local concerts and competes at district contests once a year. 50 BUSINESS For those who are interested in careers in business-related fields, G.C.H.S. offers many business courses, including Word Processing, Accounting, BOE, and Typing.

Juniors and Seniors who wish to choose journalism as an elective course have to meet certain criteria and receive faculty recommendation. VOCATIONAL The Vocational department is continuing to advance each year. Five main courses are now offered to the students. Agribusiness is one of these courses, but it is divided into five different parts: Pre-Ag, Ag I, Ag II, Ag III, and Ag IV. The second division is Home Economics and Advanced Home Economics. In these classes students are taught the skills of clothing and food preparation. Another main course is the Cooperative Vocational Training. This is a program where students are allowed to receive on-the-job training in their own career objectives. Masonry covers the basic concept of building construction with emphasis on laying masonry materials. Carpentry covers the use of hand tools and power machinery in carpentry and cabinet-making. 51 Going the extra mile . . . Academic Awards A purpose for achieving, academic awards provide those few students who excel in their work with a tangible token of their effort. Yet, it goes far beyond the horizon of tangibility. Academic achievement is not in being the best but in doing your best. From extra effort at home to participation in class, every student who has put one foot forth has entered the door of academic achievement. Basically speaking, academics begin with English techniques. Grasping her hand. Principal Michael Whitaker congratulates Suellen Hales for her achievements. These Sophomores find studying easy while in Home Economics. Leisure was the word for these eighth graders as their individual pace is set for studying. 52 Mrs. Annette Phillips has a look of indifference, but everyone knows how teachers can be! Interrupted, Darrin Sorrells and Bobby Light look up at the flash from working hard. Mrs. Thomas stands tall as these fifth graders are called to attention. Taking time out for questions and answers, teacher Judy Rousseau knows the key to learning. CREATIVE LISTENING Learning that the English teacher was lecturing during class, students began preparing themselves. Now and then unusually boring classes, or unfavorite ones, called for listening creatively. This meant taking an extra notebook to draw in or at times, creative listening meant practicing sleeping techniques. Of all the desirable methods of listening creatively, the most favorable ones were listed here. 1) WRITE NOTES—As a way of staying awake or quietly catching up on all the latest gossip, students wrote notes to friends, love notes being the popular form. 2) DOODLE—Notebooks, looseleaf paper, and desk tops were filled with graffiti. Names embraced by hearts, stick figures, and fanciful writings were found. Some students even wrote notes on the desk tops to students in other classes. 3) SLEEP—During any long lecture, or any long anything, at least one person could be spotted nodding. For the attentive student, large supplies of No-Doz must be kept on hand. What can teachers expect from students who stayed up so late studying the night before! 4) READ A BOOK—What is the main reason for re- newing your subscription to your favorite mags? To provide entertainment! Studying for an exam for next period or doing the homework that is due are two more ways for lecture time to pass. 5) DAYDREAM—Plans for the weekend or that special someone provides a thrilling lecture escape. Visualize all the graduation gifts, the perfect date, or prom dress. 6) CLOCK WATCHING—How many seconds are in the one hour class you are taking? Figure out, because it is a great get-away-from-the-lesson plan. The latest fashions in Swatches provide new sights. 7) LISTEN AFTER ALL—Paying attention may actually pay off—you may learn something. With a compiled list of current notes, it might be a money-making experience! Now that you’ve wasted the class time and missed every chance to take notes, what should you do? First of all, try calling your best friend. Hope that he took his share of notes. Next, you might borrow the class brain’s notes—only to get them xeroxed! As a last resort, ask if your older brother or sister kept their notes from three years ago. Finally, study the material that you do have, doing the best you can. Who knows, you may learn from this experience! Creatively listening, Altai Yeomans and Debbie Galloway debate over the latest news around school. Undoubtedly, No-Doz is not working for Shannon Stevens. 54 HARD CLASSES TOUGH BUT WORTH IT Most students dread going to a specific class, one that usually involves difficulty. Giving up something highly valued, such as time, for a special class means a sacrifice is made, but is it worth it? There are multiple reasons for disliking a course. At times, students lack a strong background of knowledge and experience in a subject they find difficult. From honors classes to business courses, students need good skills in math and typing, as well as good English and spelling skills. Preparation is the name of the game—but so is time consumation. Anything from analytical Geometry to English critiques requires vast amounts of tedious time. The question of worth must be asked of one’s self. Are you doing what you expect of yourself to reach your individual goals? If yes, then the sacrifices made are more than worth the effort. Yet, if one is not self-satisfied first, then his offerings are empty. 55 Choice was simply the lecture escape for Michelle Massey. Onlookers Kristi Fisher and Lois Dubose repre sent the style of the basic student as the band behind displays their individual interests, too. Everyone possessed special talents and interests which made them unique. But, this year, all students realized they would have to pull together to be able to survive the nine-month school year while having fun. A personal look at the teachers showed that they were actually humans too. So, with this in mind and a little cooperation, 1987 turned out to be all that was expected —and perhaps even more. Lasting a lifetime . .. FRIENDSHIP Expectantly, each student looked forward to the start of a new year, as friendships began that would last a lifetime. As the first day of school loomed closer, students began to prepare for the school year. It was a time to see friends and a time to get involved in all the extra activities. All was activity. Band members practiced daily, perfecting music and marching drills. Cheerleaders cheered diligently, boosting school spirit. Football players strove for strength and unity. For all others, it was a time for making memories. Students busily shuffled in and out, unconciously breezing through passing time, never to recover it. From the beginning and the back-to-school-rush, though at times it seemed like forever, the nine-month school year flew by quickly. When an unbearable situation arose, a loveable friend could be counted on to understand. Learning skills in carpentry. John Tracey and Micheal Matthews practice on the skill saw. An appetizing break filled the stomachs of these starving students. Hanging on, Shawn Green realizes the importance of friends! 58 Peering out from a tunnel of fun, Janet Watson is surrounded by playmates all wrapped in smiles. 59 Lending a helping hand. Michelle Gilley solves the confusion of computers for Hamilton Morales. Listening and learning is the name of the game for Kindergarteners and their teachers. Smiling, Brian Whitehead and Jason Wagner pose while taking a break from cheering at a Friday pep rally. Basking in the sun before school. Clint Matthews, Douglas Martin, and Chad Turner await the morning bell. 60 Strategic thinking was the game for Tracy Wood and Dennis Howell. Receiving class rings was the highlight of the year for Juniors Becky Guilford, Angie Sorrells, Amanda Butler, and Paige Morris. Sharing the joy of laughter, Stephanie Hawthorne and Sheila Walker join Mary-Ann Howell and Jill Wilson for a barrel of fun. One’s worst critic, but highest appraiser; one’s most trusted confident, but most open-hearted speaker—a FRIEND. Forgetting the qualms of yesterday, friends are the ones who bring out the best in a person by forever being optimistic. Side by side, friends venture into maturity, accepting the present perception of today and the challenging change of tomorrow. 61 A special night suspended in time . . . If Only For A Moment Junior-Senior Prom 1986 The Junior-Senior Prom 1986, decorated in colors of pink, purple, and blue, was held at the Lake Lodge in Fort Rucker. A double arch of balloons was raised as the focal point. Each Senior and Junior was presented with a glass and memory booklet by the Junior Class officers. B.J. Kelly from WKMX provided the music. The night magically flew, bringing in the last memory of proms for the Seniors and a beginning for the Juniors. Wearing her sunglasses at night. Regina Hendrix decides to dance the night away. Senior Melinda Dorriety takes a rest after dancing. Slow dancing set the pace for Jody Gilley and Rhonda Shirley as they move through memories. 62 One big happy family, the 1987 Seniors take a break and gather around for what may be the last family portrait. Cody Sellers tastes the delicious food served by the Lake Lodge employees. Friends played an important part of enjoying the night, as did Tammy Rowe and Glenda Brown. Entering the door of a magical night. Michelle Tucker. Joy Wilson, and Deborah Nicholas come in cheerfully, ready to dance. 63 And this was the result of Counting On T earn work Nicole Batchelor signs up for the prom, kicking off a list of activity. Junior sponsor Norma Galloway explains the basics for a successful prom. Balloons were all around as everyone pitched in to assemble the focal point, a balloon double arch. Sonji Coleman and Stephanie Welch experience difficulty in assembling some the prom's props. Phillip Garvin. Micheal Fillingim. James Sizemore. and Jeff Smith assemble the bridge. The finished product of the balloon double arch left everyone breathless. From cutting vines, blowing up balloons, and assembling a balloon double arch to carpentry students building a bridge for the photo setting, each individual employed his talents and hands to create a prom wonderland. Anything from the flower committee to the chair committee spent the better part of the day yelling instructions, looking for tape, or arranging flowers picture-perfect. Teamwork worked. For the first time the 1986 Junior class came together, creating a triumphant farewell and the genesis of teamwork. Once on a roll, no one slowed down—not even for lunch! Not until mid-afternoon could everyone take a step back— sigh—and look with wonder at what had, at about 9:00 the same morning, seemed to be an impossibility. The room was afloat with bouncing balloons and the attitude of counting on teamwork. Glenda Brown makes good use of the air pump. Packing up after a tiring day. Michelle Tucker and Suellen Hales put things in order. 65 Even from age five to eleven, everyone found themselves GETTGNG INVOLVED Middle School Student Council Left to Right, First Row: Brett Tucker—President.

Were Going All The Way James Fuschia and Teal Iris FLOWER SENIOR—SENIORITY Seniority, a privileged status attained by length of service. Having traveled the highway of high school life, Seniors received many specialities along with their reign as Top Dawg. These ranged from entering the halls before the bell had rung, sitting inside during break, to having more leisure time. Yet, Seniors still took a great interest in academics as they were offered many electives and had to decide upon their choice of college. Senior—seniority go hand in hand. Seniors have served the full term, gone the extra mile, had their final moments, and said their final say. Yes, it is time to move on to bigger things, but will they be better?

Entering a brand new world, Lee Herring and Jamaal Williams face the challenge of today. Decked in new clothes with the latest in lunch box and book satchel fashions, the kindergartener waves a nervous farewell as his mother mouths, “Au revoir!” Now, the average student is not familiar with this word, “au revoir,” which happens to be French for goodby. Yet, how many times has a person said this? There is goodby with a smile, goodby with a tear, or just plain old see ya School itself begins with an aloha to the comforts of home, Mom’s good cooking—and—sleeping late. Yet, within the four blah walls of the classroom, friends are found and interesting discoveries are made. Climbing the ladder from books featuring “Spot” and “Jane” to complex equations and the all-exciting world of history, seems like a slow process. However, when one reaches the height of grade twelve it seems like only yesterday when rockets and rainbows were the things which dreams were built upon. After coming full circle as a Senior, one must mutter the words “au revoir.” Perhaps, this time, though, it is different as one leaves with a sense of finality than as an expectant five-year-old. No one is used to stepping out instead of stepping in. Goodby now becomes a little more painful—and it takes a bit of courage—as the memories still linger. Au revoir offers a learning experience time after time. Elementary school proves to be an exciting ride as the merry-go-round spins round with happy smiles. 118 School, a hello to new adventures, offers challenging experiences as Scott Dilliard and Dana Vickery learn through the eyes of computers.

Ordering Senior invitations, Randall Kinman, James Sizemore, Bobby Light, Jeff Smith, and Andy Bottoms wave a final farewrll as they prepare for the May 29 graduation date. 119 Real people devoted to education—the faculty. Some students realized that teaching a class required hours of planning by their teachers, but it often came as a shock to find that there was a real person on the other side of that gradebook. The faculty and staff found themselves pulling together to get through paperwork and the extra hours spent beyond the regular school day. Although teachers continued to use large quantities of red ink and the staff still had their rules, it was an interesting experience for students to discover the person on the other side of the gradebook. HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL Mike Whitaker Devoted to education, Mr. Whitaker made daily decisions which weighed heavily upon GCHS. From dreaded discipline problems to opportune improvements, he committed himself to meeting students, faculty, and staff halfway. Whether looked upon as a strict disciplinarian or as an experienced advisor, Principal Mike Whitaker deserved respect for pulling together all the loose ends, securing a success. Phone conversations occupied a vast part of Mr Whitaker's day. Mr. Whitaker’s slogan: A cluttered desk is the mark of a genius. 122 Sending problem students journeying through the “land of isometrics, Mr. Whitaker exhibits the strain of the brief two-minute trip. VICE PRINCIPAL Willie Brown Humorous and easy-going described a vital part of GCHS—Willie Brown. Lending a helping hand for seven years, Mr. Brown could often be spotted as the center of the classroom discussions or dismissing lunch with his deep, unmista-keable voice. From tallying monthly reports to presenting his unique discipline views, Mr. Brown assisted Mr. Whitaker in keeping the academic agenda on schedule. Leaving the office of Principal Mike Whitaker, Mr. Brown worked jointly with him to conquer the new problems brought with each day Mr. Willie Brown was engrossed in an intense conversation. Scratching his head, Mr Brown wonders whether it is all worth it.

Yet, there was much more to the average teacher’s day. Problems involving class scheduling, time management, personnel, and the unexpected surprises made each day unique. While most students were rolling out of bed at 7.15 a.m., some teachers were already on campus. The day began earlier and lasted longer for these devoted people. Unlike other years, proration moved up front promoting a major problem. With larger classes, more responsibility was required and some individual attention was inhibited. Being a teacher had its rougher moments and some decisions haunted the decision maker. The hardest part is helping students to diligently apply themselves in everything, stated Mrs. Barbara Howell. Some days were too memorable to forget. The worst day is schedule changes,” remarked Principal Michael Whitaker. All is chaos!” All teachers agreed there were more positive aspects to the job. It makes you feel good when students return years later just to say thanks,” said Mrs. Carolyn Coleman. Teachers were caring people and not just some old meany” sitting behind the desk waiting to wreck havoc in a life. Helping to make a positive difference made a teacher’s job special.

Coach Randy Nolen is decked out in purple and gold, supporting the Bulldogs from head to toe. 129 As the sports season was kicked off with football, each Bulldog fan had butterflies just wondering how the season would begin. Everyone had high expectations of this year being the Bulldogs’ year in sports. The sports program always found a way to break away from the hustle and bustle. The installment of new bleachers for the visitors’ side improved the convenience of it all. Yet, it was not this that made for a successful season; it was the quality of the participants and the coaches’ zeal for building a positive program. All teams strove for individual goals— dedication had its rewards. KEEPERS OF TrIE BULLDOG SPIRIT Striving to reach a high plateau, the thirty football players became a team, in every aspect of the word. Head Coach David Snell, Coaches Randy Nolen and Johnny White faithfully supported the endeavor of all the players. From putting aside schoolwork to letting bygones be bygones, each participant joined in the fight for unity. Kicking off the season with a 25-14 win over Houston County, the Dawgs prepared to meet the Straughn challenge. Shutting out the Tigers with a 14-0 win, the Bulldogs triumphed over their first area opponent. The two following area opponents, Samson and Florala, were also caught in the Dawgs’ storm of shut-outs. The upsets of the year were seized by Cottonwood and the six-point win of the Geneva Panthers. Yet, the Bulldog spirit was not dampened! they kept clawing their way to the top. Homecoming held the highlight of the year. Closing the Samson game with a 23-0 win, the Bulldogs captured the Class 2A Area 3 Championship, qualifying them for the State Playoffs. The finale, Florala. was the victim of a soaring spirit. The Wildcats were overthrown with a 46-0 triumph, giving newcomers a time to perform. With five shut-outs in a ten game season, the title of Area Champs, and a place in the State Playoffs, the Bulldogs’ season was a dream built from the reality of extra time and effort. The end of the regular season left the team with butterflies in their stomachs and sleepless nights. Everyone had high expectations for the State Playoffs. The determined players became keepers of the Bulldog spirit. An earnest Coach White and Head Coach David Snell look onward as Coach Randy Nolen signals crucial plays to overthrow the opposition.

Although losses to Geneva and Headland took some of the glitter off the year, it still turned out great, helping to build for the future as well as enjoy the present.” reminisced Head Coach David Snell. With most of the offensive lineman and receivers returning, the Bulldogs entered into the first round of the 2A area championship. The night of November 7 and Dixie Howell Stadium held the emergence of a victory against the Houston County Lions. With an intercepted pass by Ronald Carroll, Don Jordan was sent out for the six-point gain, topped off with Jay Fisher’s extra point. Bounding downfield, Houston County completed two passes, putting them at the Hartford 44. David Alberson spotted his target and led a tackle, leaving the Lions one yard short of a gain and the Bulldogs in possession of the ball. Jay Fisher kicked a 24 yard field goal making the score 10-0 Hartford. Charles Ward then drilled two touchdowns downfield, crowned with Jay Fisher's extra point. The Lions made their only touchdown with a fumbled Bulldog ball at the end of the third quarter. As Don Jordan kicked a 28 yard field goal, the final score became 27-8. Hosting the number I ranked Cottonwood on November 14, Donnie Griffin began the battle with a string of short drives. The line kept pushing, but the Bears were not to budge. In the third quarter, the tables turned; Don Jordan ran a kick return back 81 yards for a touchdown. The Bulldog defense was led by Senior David Alberson. Though leaving with the defeat of 42-6, the team held their heads high as they reflected upon a triumphant 8-4 season. Patiently awaiting the legal call of the referees, the pile-up of Bulldogs and Cottonwood Bears clears to varify who captured the turnover by the opposition.

Anxiously awaiting the sound of the buzzer, the Bulldogs faced a challenging season. With the first six games being away, the Dawgs pushed hard to turn the season around. Home-court advantage provided a winning streak after several close losses. The team’s style changed from a slow pace to an up-beat, running gun offense. The strategy worked well with the players and captivated the supportive audience. Kenny Copeland and Jay Fisher were the leading rebounders, as Don Jordan, the high-point man, averaged twenty points per game. The future looked bright for basketball as its young players continued to gain valuable experience and took a greater interest in its up-beat tempo.

Coach 143 THROWING A FIT The season started out with a big come from behind win against Samson and we continued to win three of our next five games. The remainder of the season we were up and down so it was hard to build the conf idence a good baseball team needs to be successful.” The last two games of the season we finally got things on track and played the way I knew they could play all year. We defeated the state champions, the Headland Rams, and lost by one run to a strong Rehobeth team in a game which could have easily gone the other way. The kids never stopped trying to improve themselves and for that they deserve a lot of credit.” Mark Ryals pitched well all season and improved with every outing. Don Jordan and David Ketchem led the team offensively hitting .457 and .463 respectively. Other players contributing were as follows: Mark Dillard—first baseman-, Kevin Jordan—center field: Frank Lunsford—left field; Derek Bonner—right field-, Shawn McCray—second baseman; Alan Hilliard—third baseman; Tony Hales—third baseman; Donnie Griffin—second baseman, Hamilton Morales—third baseman; Todd Wesson—first baseman,” declared a devoted Coach Randy Nolen.

This book of memories would not have been possible without their never-ending contributions. By these, students have been provided with a successful yearbook; in turn, we, the Journalism class, hope that the merchants have been provided successful and beneficial advertising.

Homecoming, and the Prom. Then, there are the memories of cramming for and failing tests, losing games. Coach Whitaker’s Isometrics, and athletic, cheerleader. and band practices. These are the special” things that will always be a part of our high school memories. Each of us has changed in our own way. We’ve made new friends to add to the old and we are beginning to understand what lies ahead of us. To us, the Senior Class of 1987, this is the end of us as a group, and the beginning of us as individuals. We have to make the best of the rest of our lives, starting now. As we look ahead, new dreams materialize, and we realize that we can achieve the goals we set for ourselves. Although we are sad to be leaving, we are excited about things still to come, and we are thankful to GCHS, the faculty, and our friends for all of the memories.
