Text from Pages 1 - 248 of the 1988 volume:

Page 4, ut of Our Hands ho says we’re “just slightly out of control?” The juniors, sophomores, freshmen, faculty, and most of all, SENIORS. After three years of grueling homework, term papers, books to read, and exams, the seniors lost all control. Many seniors chose to skip March 25 in celebration of 88 days until graduation. Everything lost control, including the stock market (crash), the fire at Linkhorne Elementary, and the truck that created the new drive-in at the “T-Room.” Losing control! The senior class shows who really has the most spirit. The seniors and the rest of the student body helped form the 12th man and encouraged the football team to a district title. 2 Opening The whole student body was outrageously spirited. Bus loads of students with G’s on faces and caravans of cars ruled the away football games. Pep rallies were a big boost for the football team as was the bon-fire in preparation for the Halifax Comets. The broken water main next to the auditorium left the school without water or heat for an evening. No one seemed to be able to control the weather, with an early November snow, warm temperatures in February, and unseasonable cold and snow on March 21, the supposed first day of spring. rye hihaphass a A new lunch menu? Without any lunch privileges, it is a wonder how seniors Ginny Henson and Donna Turner escaped the horror of school lunches to eat out. The big and little of it: Calvert Jones and Coach Fred Stanbery smile with content as they leave the field after the William Fleming game. Calvert was awarded the best offensive lineman and also was a member of the Ist team All-State. Taking the time out to talk: After her presentation to the school, Mrs. Bias, mother of Len Bias, took the time to ta lk to students one on one. Her speech on being in control of yourself compelled some people to get personal advice from her. Opening 3 Breaking the ice: Craig Connell dives into the first meet of Glass’ first swim team. This was the first year that students could participate on the swimming and diving team. Taking a break: Allison Shields takes time out during half-time at a home football game to catch a few Z’s.

We easily defeated Salem 23-7. pane he end began to approach ever so quickly with smiles for senior pictures, hot scorching August practices, and the first football game against Northside. The students couldn't gain control and realized that summer was slipping through their fingers and school was around the corner. Labor Day weekend rain didn’t add to the students enthusiasm of returning, but students made the most of it. Athletic rivalries were continually building, and hard to control, but with the help of the 12th man our superb abilities clearly shined through. By the end of the spring sports schedule we had captured ie ten district, four regional, and one state witness title. Our academics were just as spectacular with ACE winning the district tournament and Pop Quiz as the runner-up. A new swimming and diving team sprang into action for the first time in the school’s history. The seatbelt law went into effect on January Ist and a referendum on a state lottery was passed. + ye are 5 Ge SEE PRE ee erp ew : Sa ee Come on, let’s jam!

Opening 5 aay Blue erhaps one of the best surprises came during the pep rally preceding the Heritage game. An enormous white box stood in the center of the gym as the student body crowded into the sweltering hot gymnasium. About halfway through the rally the box was lifted and a white furry animal appeared. Our first mascot! The new bell and digital clock system was also hooked up to the fire alarms. These were out of control, between students pulling them and the routine checks, the buzzing occurred countless times. Bad timing for practice drills occurred on March 15 and 16, when freezing winds and cold temperatures seemed to make it unbearable to stand outside.

Wipe out: The new mascot is ready to wipe out Heritage. Students and faculty alike got riled up for the big game with our cross-town rival, which we won 16-14. Buckle up: The crash dummies were on hand to be sure everyone buckled up after the new law that went into effect January first. 8 Student Life ruising around aimlessly for something to do, being affected by current events, endless hours of practicing to perfect Peter Pan, the 12th Man travelling in caravans to away football games, looking for a dress, or even a date for Prom ... Our students were constantly out on the loose, looking for that extra something that makes us different. Keeping up with the times kept STUDENT LIFE just slightly out of control. — Beth Hedrick Yea, I’m bad: Senior Alvin Snead shows off his beach costume as Coach Murray awards him Ist prize for his outfit. The 12th man cheered him on to his victory. Preparing to scorch the Comets: The 12th Man gather around the bonfire the night before the Halifax game. This was our first bonfire in four years. P| 4 housands of rowdy, cheering fans cov- ered almost all of our home side. Students sat jammed packed in the hot- test part of City Stadium, and considering that the temperature was far below freezing, it wasn’t the weather that made it hot. The clanging of pots and pans, the blaring of air horns, and the ringing of cow bells filled the night air. With the help of the so- called “12th Man” the Hill- toppers rolled over the Pioneers by a score of 16-14. The concept of the fans as a 12th Man started early during the football season. During pep rallies and over the morning announcements, Coach Frank Murray along with Coach Bo Henson and the football players encour- aged the student body to play the role as the 12th Man. The response was in- credible. Students crowded into the student section with their noise makers cheering on the Hilltoppers to their undefeated regular season. As a result of increased turnout, the gate leading onto the track was unlocked and the students were al- lowed to pour onto the field before the players came out 10. The Fans on the field. Forming two fifty yard lines, the students cheered as the football players came onto the field. As the athletes rocketed through the human tunnel, high fives were exchanged between players and stu- dents and some even got on their knees to bow to the district champions during the William Fleming game. Greater efforts were made in an attempt to get students to away games. As many as nine school buses were loaded to make the long trips, with each student paying $1 for the ride. For the Salem game, the buses and students who drove stopped at the Hardees just outside of Roanoke for a pep rally and free iced tea. The support and success of the 12th Manas a contrib- uting factor toward our remarkable season carried over into the other sports as well. Although the other sports did not have eleven players, the 12th Man, therefore, did not only stand for eleven plus one as in football, but for the spir- ited students thathelped all How’s this for dedication?

And up he went fly- ing all over the stage during the cultural arts production of Peter Pan. It actually, took more than just “lovely, wonderful thoughts” to make Peter fly, and much more than the average effort to make this production the “rousing success” it was. It took a culmination of effort from fifty-four cast members, twenty orchestra members, fifty-five crew members, numerous teachers, and seemingly endless hours to conquer this technically complex production. Rehearsals began when the cast returned to school from Christmas break. In the beginning, practices lasted only a few hours after school. However, with opening night drawing near, extra week- end and night rehearsals were needed for some of Where is that voice coming from? As the hidden.

As Mar- shall Wood commented, “The extra practice really got us into the swing of things.” The flying equip- ment, the same used in the Broadway production with Mary Martin, was rented from Foy Inventerprises of Las Vegas.

Insert Heave ho! Paul Fitz- services for two weekends to choreograph and teach all the dances to the cast. The finished product was magnificent and the atten- dance and support from the school and community were equally tremendous. An astounding 3623 people attended the show in its three day, four perfor- mance run. A fourth show, the Saturday matinee, was added in hopes of drawing in a large younger audi- ence, which it did. For the first time in years the annual musical production took in more money than it spent, spending around $11,000 and bringing in around $13,000. As expected, it was tough at first to get the cast and student body excited about doing a children’s musical, but judging from the end result and the massive sup- port and turnout, it was no doubt a great idea. — Paul Fitzgerald gerald and Scott Kowalski watch the characters soar as they pull them into the air.

Our Own Band?? Yes, “of Velvet Green” entertained the Homecoming crowd, This year was the first year that we enjoyed live music for our Homecoming-Ring Dance. Perfect Resemblance: No doubt about it, Courtney Harris, David Wade, and Alvin Snead are the most impressive Albermarle cheerleaders that we have ever seen. Our own mascot cheered them on as the fans at the Homecoming assembly went wild. In the Spotlight: Newly named Homecoming King and Queen Randolph Austin and Jette Hunt express their appreciation to the fans during the half time celebration. 14 Homecoming raditions were both kept and broken. Students dressed up in their coats, ties, and casual dresses, the usual attire for the eve- ning. A dance rocked the night after a crushing foot- ball victory. A trolley re- placed convertibles. 60's and 70’s replaced 80's. A band replaced the usual disk jockey. Fireworks re- placed rings of students. The class officers spent many hours meeting with their class advisors, getting ideas and planning activi- ties. Their long hours of preparation paid off. In the junior class meetings, they discussed the dance to be held after the game and the decorations to be used. Meanwhile, the senior class officers met to discuss and plan the half-time activi- ties. The result was a homecoming that broke the chains of the past. This planning led to a busy spirit week. Home- rooms decorated their doors with the theme “Pic- ture the Past,” and Ms. Fitzpatrick’s door won easily with their unique “door within a door’ decoration. Beach Day ended the week as students poured into the hot gym- nasium for the traditional pep rally, where Senior Alvin Snead grabbed and picked up a surprised Coach Murray after win- ning the costume contest. Due to the fact that in earlier years there was a problem in getting seniors to rehearse forming their class numbers on the field, the Class of ’88 decided to add a twist to the half-time activities. They formed a large “88” using sparkler- like fireworks. Instead of the traditional convertibles used to transport the Home- coming Court, the Lynch- burg Transit Company provided our city’s own trolley to transport the court. After all was said and done, Randolph Aus- tin and Jette Hunt were crowned Homecoming King and Queen. After a crushing defeat of Albermarle 28-3, the student body paraded off to the cafeteria decorated with blue and white helium balloons and glittering stars provided by Balloons by Charlie for the Ring Dance. The students danced to the 60’s and 70’s music played by the band “Of Velvet Green”. The juniors collected their rings as the dance came to a close, and the students rode off into the night. — Katherine Cash Beth Hedrick Jason Campbell 8,9, 10...: Leigha King only needs 78 more turns to be able to have that special someone be the 89th turner.

Dressed in white with fangs two inches long the school was invaded by vampires, here to steal a hundred pints of young blood. No one was safe on February 5th. These vampires did not wear black capes and walk around saying, “I Vant to suck your blood!” They were not heartless mon- sters, but volunteers from the American Red Cross who were running the an- nual SCA Bloodmobile. Any student 17 years or older who weighed at least 110 pounds was qualified to miss class, eat unlimited amounts of cookies and drink Cokes all for the simple fee of one pint of blood. Most of the students who gave were first time donors who were a little nervous. The auditorium lobby was transformed to look like a patio hospital. Lounge chairs were used for beds and tray tables for checking blood pressure and taking blood samples from the fin- ger Or ear. After the donor’s tem- perature, blood pressure, and blood sample were checked it was time. Some donors were eliminated at this point because volun- teers could not find their veins. Leslee Coulter, one of these veinless donors, stated, “After she poked me with the needle in both arms, she informed me she was sorry, but they could not find my vein.” For most, after the vein was found the process began. The time for draining the needed pint varied from person to per- son; however, on an aver- age, the needle stayed in- serted for 10 to 15 minutes. The reactions to loss of blood also varied. A major- ity of the donors felt no real side effects except for maybe some weakness dur- ing the rest of the day. Some of the donors felt light-headed and became quite pale. The Red Cross volunteers stepped in im- mediately and by lying them down flat, elevating their feet, and calming them down, eliminated the risk of further side effects. Very few of the donors actually passed out. Jette Hunt was the first person to give blood and the first to black out. “After I gave I felt fine, I was eating cookies and talking, and all of a sudden I blacked out.” At the end of the day the SCA was two pints short of their 100 pint goal. Mrs. Scalf and another student came through in the end and gave the two pints to meet the goal. Many first time donors expressed a feeling of satisfaction. Malia Craig expressed a view held by many, “It makes you feel good know- ing that you could help save someone’s life.” — Dannette McCain Beth Hedrick Lauren Weigand I can’t take it!

We live in Lynch- burg.” These words con- stantly rang through stu- dents’ ears as the week- end approached. People said there was never any- thing to do here, but ev- eryone always found something to do. So where was it that every- one went when they were not being hassled by schoolwork? Students could be found in a va- riety of places. Whether it was a Wednesday night or a beautiful Saturday, stu- dents managed to come up with some excuse to get away from homework and parents, and just get out of the house. BBrring!

For some, the phone call was from Joe wondering if you wanted to blow off your Algebra homework and go play b- ball at Paul Munroe; for others it was Sue wonder- ing if you wanted to put your English reading aside and zip out to the mall to look for a prom dress. Many preferred to get as far away from Lynch- burg as possible and vis- ited friends at area col- leges. Others took a ride up the parkway to enjoy the fall colors or if it was nice catch some sun on the rocks at Petits’ Gap. Those who were less for- tunate and were forced to stay in the “BURG” made the usual trip to Micki D’s to see where all the action was. After everyone asked everyone else what they were doing, they started a caravan to the well known road hangouts. (Haw- thorne, St. Andrews, or Drug Store.

A bowl and a cheesy western would hit the spot, so the last stop before home was the T- Room. Some went a dif- ferent route and partied the night away at the hot spot known as the Rain- bow. Others spent it cruis- ing Ward’s Road or the Mall. On a nice day students could be found at Peaks- view or Riverside Parks playing some ball or just walking around enjoying the fresh air. On Sunday some hung out and en- joyed a live band at the Dell at Randolph Macon. Whether it was cruising Ward’s Road, dancing at the Rainbow, or parked on a dead end street, everyone seemed to find something to do. —Beth Hedrick Lauren Weigand Playing games: Allison Martin tries to win big money in the McDonald’s Monopoly game as Becky Johnson stares at her melt- ing ice cream.

Hangouts ee hinking of skate- boarders, the stereo- typical image comes to mind — flashy Jams,. bright tees, Vans, weird hairstyles, and mega- strange vocabs. Where did this image come from? Television and movies. Most skateboarders, or Thrashers, in Lynchburg admit that their interest in skateboarding originated from the tube. “I saw it on TV and thought it would be pretty rad to try. It’s not as easy as it looks,” confessed Steve Purdue. So, if it’s not easy, why do they do it? There are many FLYING HIGH answers to that, but Wesley Mason’s seemed most plau- sible: “Skateboarding keeps me out of trouble. There’s no need for drugs to get me high. When I board on a ramp, I just want to get higher and higher. That’s the kind of high I want. My brain doesn’t get burned out, and I’m satisfied with the air (height) I get. It’s radical.” Skateboards weren’t the only hot items on wheels. Freestylers can really put on a show with bikes. Bikes can be safe, but the tricks executed by freestylers can make bike-riding a hazard to your health. They jump off ramps, bunny-hop over picnic tables, and surf down the steepest roads. There are even tricks that resem- ble graceful crashes. Oh what a feeling! Brian Ber- nas, who has been racing for six years, does his free- styling for fun and atten- tion. “I like to race, but girls find the stunts more inter- esting. I guess I do too,” confided Brian. No matter what wheels you find your fun on, there’s always someone to introduce a little danger into it. — Kayla Black Double stuff: If a picture is worth a thousand words, this clip is worth twice as much.

This just isn’t your day! When things get slightly out of control and you feel the need to “get away from it all,” what do you look for? A quiet place. Quiet places? You've got to be kidding! In this day of advanced technology and modern conveniences you'd think that finding a quiet place would be a simple task. But ... Where did students find quiet places? The general consensus was to head for your bed- room. Not a bad choice if you could evade your mother, who seemed to manage on her own during the school day, but found 100 things she needed for you to help her with once you were home. And then there was your younger brother or sister who in- sisted on keeping their Bon Jovi tape set so loud that your iced tea glass trem- bled. Of course, you could go to the library. Since it was past 2:45 and the school library was closed you'll have to settle for the public library. But listening to the group of girls giggling in the corn er and being dis- tracted by friends who were constantly coming over to ask you questions was any- thing but peaceful. What you needed was a place that inspired dreams, a place where you could confront your problems and reduce tension. So what was left? Where on this planet could you find a quiet place? There was the golf course, with all nature surrounding you. A back corner booth at your favorite fast food res- taurant, with the aroma of french fries and hambur- gers opening your juggled mind. The bathroom. Well, at least it was quiet and private ... sometimes. The yearbook staffroom, there was seldom anyone there. The Parkway, with its su- preme beauty and unexcelled tranquility. Your basement, that was if your mother didn’t hand you the laundry and a broom on the way down. And, of course, there was always your car which might not have had unsur- passed beauty, but did offer comfort, locks, and some quiet. Quiet places? They were virtually non-existent. — Ned Moore Geting away from school: Randolph Austin and David Ferguson escape the chaos of teachers and tests in the solitude of Randolph’s car. 2D Quiet Places Can I take your order?

S ooner or later you were going to need a job. Usually this need arose around the end of your junior year or beginning of your senior year, and usu- ally because of a lack of funds. M-O-N-E-Y spelled it out plain and simple. If you didn’t need the money why work? “For fun” and “for the: experience” are common answers and might sound like noble reasoning, but there was usually a green tint to this nobility. Kenny Rogers who was employed at Mr. B’s Deli worked because, “jt gives him something to do”, but he was quick to add that, “the paychecks don’t hurt either.” Mr. B’s, Westminister Canterbury, Hank’s Ex- xon, King’s Island, Kroger and many stores at River Ridge Mall were tradi- tional employers of stu- dents. Most students en- joyed their jobs and did not feel that it hurt their social life. They usually averaged between 15 and 30 hours a week. Much of the money was blown on weekend ac- tivities, but some was saved for a car or for college. Paul Phillips saw it this way, “My parents are going to give me some money, but you can never have too much.” Wise words from a wise man. — Chip Tucker Swimmer’s ear: Elena Bertolotti chats with a swimmer at the YMCA.

Spring Break 2 7 ON 7 D IN SMOKE On Saturday, January 30, smoke bellowed from the school walls as spectators helplessly watched. When the thirty fire and rescue workers and twenty policemen had toiled for about forty-five minutes to control the blaze, the north pod of Linkhorne Elementary School had burned. The fire destroyed six classrooms and did heavy damage to four others, leaving the stains of black smoke all over the school walls. Working through the night and all day Sunday, and giving up their Super Bowl time, workers prepared the school for the next school day. Despite their brilliant effort, 180 of the 630 school students had to be moved to the 28 Mini-Mag Villa Maria Academy, vacated ever since the Catholic school was closed several years ago. Students were back in school on the following Monday and those students moved to the Villa were asking questions and breaking in their “Linkhorne Villa.’’ Teachers from other schools donated textbooks and teachers at their “new” school each received a “care package” of sup- plies, including glue, scissors, chalk, and other items. Said Merle Herndon, principal of Linkhorne Elementary, “The school climate really has been positive. Everyone worked together. They’ve rolled with the punches.” — Jason Campbell ” UTSIDE THE LONG SHORT OF {7 In the fall, the fashion world predicted that skirts would be shorter by spring, moving to- wards the mini-minis of the ’60’s. But people didn’t accept this wave of fashion. Although some hemlines decreased, the mini tended to get longer, showing more knee and less thigh. Long skirts were also in style again this year for those who chose not to wear the mini. Wool, or wool look-alikes, re- placed denim as the popular material for those longer skirts. Paralleling skirt lengths, long hair seemed to be the fad. — Molly Howerton SRE NFSS SO hy ‘ bh, ‘ He re “eit Xe ae % 1 ! 4 “ es % WHAT'S AFFORDABLE |; ar WHAT'S NOT ; Stamps — $.25 Yearbook — $22 GTI — $14,000 Can drink — $.50 Pack of cigarettes — $1.20 Blank cassette — $2.50 Average college tuition in Va. — $5000 Movie — $4 Gallon of gas — $.89 Nike Air tennis shoes — $75 Concert ticket — $15 Rented VCR movie — $2.50 Big Mac — $1.49 Haircut — $15 girls $9 guys Roll of color film (24) — $4.75 Developing — $10.00 Hallmark Greeting Card — $1.50 Newspaper — $.25 Tuxedo Rental — $70 Prom Dress — $100-125 Prom Tickets — $15 Computer disk — $1 i 4 ‘ j | | | THE LEGAL CORNER In a unique and changing year the Virginia General As- sembly made some radical and somewhat surprising decisions. In the interest of most people (students are people too!) was the lottery bill proposed by Northern Virginian Delegates. To the surprise of many this bill was easily passed and adopted by the people in a referendum. The lottery is scheduled to be- gin July 1. Another controver- sial bill that was surprisingly successful at the Assembly was the 65mph speed limit bill. This law will go into effect July 1 also. To counteract the accidents that legislators saw the bill caus- ing, a new seat-belt policy went into effect on New Year’s Day requiring all front seat passen- gers as well as the driver to wear seat belts at all times. Other bills passed included a bill calling for a referendum of Para-mutual betting and on increasing the cost of postage from $.22 to $.25. Many legislators felt that this year’s assembly was very unusual but productive. — Chip Tucker Mini-Mag 29 IN “ UTSIDE BLACK MONDAY If somebody said, “The bot- tom dropped out of Wall Street,” one would immediately associate the 1929 Stock Market crash with the statement. But on Octo- ber 19, 1987, the bottom again dropped out of the stock mar- ket. Many reasons were given for the 508 point drop to nearly 1700, including high interest rates, the budget deficit, the low dollar, and the trade deficit. There was talk of a recession, even a depression, but that was not to be. Black Monday wore off rather quickly and in April the market was hovering around 2000 points again. But the crash did not go unnoticed. A flimsy budget package was immediately Unimvated developed by Congress and the Administration. A man in Flor- ida, after losing nearly all his fortune, went into the Merrill- Lynch brokerage firm and shot and killed his broker and him- self. Even though there was a 23 percent drop in stock market prices and the destruction of approximately 500 billion dol- lars in stock market wealth, much of the excessive trading which had played the market was eliminated. Several months after the crash, the economy proved to be fairly strong again and more balanced than at the time of the crash. — Jason Campbell Guests The Texas Inn, better known as the Tea-Room to students who eat there regularly, had a very large guest thrown through the front of the building on February 11th. No it wasn’t a person, buta pick-up truck. This occurred when a semi-truck loaded with lumber lost control going down Fifth Street and barreled into the parking lot hitting three parked cars. One of these cars was knocked through the front wall of the building, stopping 30) Mini-Mag only a few feet in front of the counter. Luckily no-one inside or out was seriously injured. The driver of the truck had a slight back injury after his truck stopped, hanging sideways off the side wall. He was treated and released from the hospital later in the day.

Saying Goodbye to During the last week in March, Lynchburg lost a prom- inent piece of its history — Hayes Hall, the first perma- nent building constructed at Virginia Seminary and Col- lege.

The four-level building housed the dining area in the base- ment, classes on the first, and student housing for on-campus 32 Mini-Mag 100 Years of Hutorw students on the second and third floors.

What almost didn’t happen turned out to be quite a day. Because of the “lack of senior interest,” the administrators decided that our seniors didn’t de- serve a special day. The thought of not having a Senior Day aroused the attention of the class of 1988 and they started to make some important deci- sions. Committees, and the Senior Glass officers put the various activities together. Concrete plans were put into action, par- ents were contacted, and food was prepared. Senior Day was almost complete. The day began early for the committees which had to ensure that the day would run smoothly.

The seniors, won fair and square, but the faculty still had words for the officials, Beth Hedrick and Lauren Weigand. With Coach Bill Seigle and Dr. Roger Jones constantly pouting over something, and Coach Chip Berry’s attempted charges, they had a hard job. About fifteen people helped to fill the water bal- loons for the fight, which began soon after students indulged themselves in hot dogs and hamburgers. This small endeavor only led to more water being hurled at friends and foes. Cups were fulled with water from the fountain or out of pipes in the ground and the fight went on. Vol- leyball and Powder-Puff Football games helped some escape a sure bath. Most of the excitement was generated during the tug-of-war. The girls lined up on one side of the white hankie while the boys lined up on the other. The girls won easily — the first two times. The boys realized that if they wanted to win, they needed to really put their minds and body into it. Winning the next three tries put a bit of mas- culinity back into them. Senior Day proved to be a big hit. — Beth Hedrick } Lauren Weigand .

The ser- vice marked a time for family and friends to get together and celebrate graduation.

But the seniors were right on the mark, “being the only class ever to get it right the first time,” according to Mr. Frank Murray.

Applause roared as the graduates marched out of the auditorium and into the lobby.

SODA, Students Orga- nized for Developing Atti- tudes, was a peer group ap- proach to mental health where selected high school students met one hour a week with area sixth graders. The group was made up of thirty dedicated juniors and se- niors. Among the topics dis- cussed were peer pressure, decision making, self-con- cept, and drug and alcohol education. “In order to be the best SODA leader you can be, it takes lots of outside prepa- ration to come up with an ap- proach that the younger kids can relate to,” said Lisa Yoon. Outside of their normal weekly meetings, SODA par- ticipated in a number of ac- Make believe: Doug Robertson and Kevin Bolding act out a situation in- volving the effects of drug abuse. tivities around school. They sponsored the guest speaker, Sandy Queen, for the ninth and tenth grade assembly as well as the “TGIF” film pre- sented to the entire student body, both of which concen- trated on the importance of decision-making. At the area- wide SODA meeting held at the Elks Lodge, our members were chosen to make the for- mal introductions.

SATISFACTION he bands rocked for several hours. The seething crowd antic- | ipated the winner of the con- test. What was this fabulous event? It was The “Battle of the Bands” contest. Five area bands competed for the first place and a prize of $300. Our own “Absolute Rock Roll Groove Band” was declared the winner. Key Club Pres- ident, Jennifer Short felt, “The Battle of the Bands’ was probably the most ambitious project all year. It required a lot of help from many people.” Though the “Battle of the Bands” was a major ef- fort, the club also found time for many other school and community activities. Over the Thanksgiving holiday their efforts were concen- trated on the Meal-On- Wheels program. In April, they arranged a picnic for the Special Ed students. The Capital District Key Club Convention was held in April in Richmond. The Conven- tion provided a weekend of excitement and served as workshop for creating new Key Club ideas. Jennifer Short and several other mem- bers attended the conference. The Astra club tried to place an emphasis on com- munity services, too, as they participated in numerous ser- vice projects within the city and surrounding areas. One project that proved to be time consuming was helping with the area Special Olympics held at Lynchburg College in April. But as Theresa Bebee explained, “The highlight was participating in the win- ter Special Olympics at Wintergreen.” Besides these two events, the dedicated ASTRA members walked in two Crop Walks. They also spent many hours at health departments and went Christmas Caroling at Vir- ginia Baptist Hospital’s Spe- cial Care Unit. — Paul Fitzgerald Stephen Royer Playing to the beat: Jeff Pooser and Scott Elson and the rest of their band “Absolute Rock Roll Groove Band” strum to the beat at the Key Club’s Battle of the Bands.

Here or there they were constantly . . . ACTING UP rom here to Fairfax and Atlanta, Glass Theatre was constantly working to produce yet an- other outstanding perform- ance. The annual Virginia Theatre Conference was held in Fairfax, Va., consisting of various one act plays per- formed by twenty-five schools both public and private. We came away with a first place finish after performing “How to Eat Like a Child.” Winning the state competition set the stage for the Southeast Com- petition in Atlanta. Compet- ing against nine other east coast schools, we were award- ed the fourth place finish. After losing many to grad- uation, Glass Theatre faced a rebuilding year.

With opening night for the first play only two days away, time was scarce. The stage still had to be set up for their first per- formance, “Diviners”, a story of a retarded boy and his quest to understand the world around him. The cast and crew were unsure of how well they would do. “Opening night was the first time the en- tire set was all together,” said Karen Currie. The mad rush and confusion taken in stride and the cast put on a gratify- ing performance. From here on the performances only got better. A comedy, “Noises Off,” was the next main stage per- formance.

The final project of the year for Glass Palette was painting the Trent’s Ferry Road wall. The mural, made of a series of tiny people, was printed on a Sun- day in May. In addition to these, the art club also did tie-dyeing and basket-weaving. Both of these 58 Glass Palette, Craft Club, Girls’ Soccer had been successful in past years and members of the art club let their creativity shine through these smaller proj- ects.

To those who aren’t, being able to un- derstand any of these lan- guages was the first require- ment for membership in one of the four foreign language clubs. The purpose of the clubs, however, was not only to strengthen foreign lan- guage skills, but to provide a way for foreign language stu- dents to learn and experience a certain country’s culture outside of the classroom. “ Advisor Dr. Elmer Nelson stated the aim of the Latin Club was “to reveal aspects of the culture throughout the years,” and “to meet other Latin students.” Meeting once a month throughout the year, the greatest challenge presented to the club was French Club Front Row: Tricia Pond, Jewell Hicks, Rebecca Namenek, Jill Whitehead, Susan Schumaker, Shannon Burford, Avis Hicks Second Row: Dominique Lan- glois, Elena Bertolotti, Allison Kughn, Karen Roberson, Jennifer Short, Candi Dielh, Alice Pearson Third Row: Laura McCarthy, Jenni- fer Fox, Scott Womack, Elizabeth Morrison, Lori Pugh, Lisa Yoon, 60 French and Spanish Club working on President Jason Campbell’s idea of composing questions for acertamen. The highlight, however, for the Latin Club was traveling to Richmond for the Virginia Junior Classical League Con- vention. While there the members participated in ac- ademic contests, skits, and poetry readings as well as va- rious recreational events. Similarly, to the German Club members the most memorable event was hosting the State German Convention in April. Fencing, folk danc- ing, German bread house- making, soccer, tole painting, German music and even a dance with music provided by the Absolute Rock ’n Roll Groove Band were some of the festivities that exhibited the many hours of hard work and detailed planning it took for the German Club to make Sarah Mitchell, Jackie Randolph, Janine Cary Fourth Row: Christie Milanovich, Eddie Song, MacGregor Gould, Jenni Zierdan, Krirsten Ihde, Laura Spetz, Christina Oglesby Fifth Row: John Weatherford, Robert Baker, Ned Moore, Katie Blackwell, Katherine Cash Back Row: James Hall, Paul Fitzgerald, Matthew Jones, Lang Perrow, David Roberts, John Daniel the convention successful. “Even though, the final plan- ning almost drove our adviser Mrs. Brenn Fulcher into a state of panic,” said Trey Baker, “we all had a great time!” Holiday festivities were the core of most of the French club activities. Who else could turn the “Fete Roir” into the event of the year? The French Club celebrated Epiphany, better known in France as the Fete Roir, at their January meeting. A miniature baby doll, baked into a cake, deter- mined the king or queen of the party. Rebecca Namenek bit into royalty and was don- ned the queen. The French club also held a Christmas party to wish all members a “Joyeaux Noel.” Spreading their Christmas cheer to the community, the club went carolling at a nursing home.

The Spanish Club also thrived on celebrations. One meeting focuses on the “Plaza Major.’ Members held a party in celebration of the an- niversary of the completed construction of this famous building in Madrid with snacks and sangria, a Spanish beverage. For Easter, the club arranged an Easter egg hunt for attending members; and in May, a pinata filled with candy was the focus of atten- tion.

MAKING A COMEBACK hen your record is 1-3 and there are only seven matches in a season, it’s easy to lose hope for a winning season. But this was not the case of the ACE team. Nerves were a bit jittery on the first night for the five in- dividual teams, but they as a team scored an impressive victory over Halifax. Confi- dence soared as the team went into the next match, but spirits quickly fell as Heritage rendered a defeating blow. That defeat then turned into two others, including an em- barrassing blowout by the Danville team. But the team then turned the tables as they won the next three matches, giving them a 4-3 record, in- cluding an impressive victory over Amherst, the number one team in the district at the time. The win over Amherst boosted the team into second place for the season. “We were a bit shaky after the start, but we held our heads together and almost finished on top,” said Angela Lobb, captain of the English team, which proved to have the most dramatic turnaround during the season due to their increased work load. Time came for the tourna- ment and the team felt confi- ‘dent. “Our history and all- around teams were first in the regular season and our other teams had improved so much that I felt we had a great shot in the tournament,” said Ja- son Albert, captain of both the history and all-around teams. The team proved to have that great shot, first beating Western Albemarle, then Danville by a slim eight point margin, and then going on to win the tournament with a decisive 344-307 vic- tory against the surprising Halifax team. The Pop Quiz team proved to be equally successful. Preparing the team only four days before its first match, the team did not know what to expect. But the team of Jason Albert, Jason Campbell, Angela Lobb, and Adrian White blazed through four matches, including a close match against Char- lottesville that went to the last question, to make it into the finals against St. Anne’s High School. “We felt confident ACE Team Front Row: Aleise McCann, Carla Martin, Cynthia Staples, Angela Lobb, Debbie Bohn Second Row: Miss Marie Waller, Regina Richardson, Valerie Duff, Danielle Bird, Nicole Chulick, Re- becca Murray, Dr. Verma River Third Row: Mrs. Jean Cobb, Bobby Tichacek, Jason Albert, Chris Coffey, Rajiv Parikh, Eric Hanson, Scott Womack, Brian De- ford, Mrs. Martha Corell Fourth Row: Brant Murray, John Weatherford, Ed- ward Song, Adrian White Back Row: Hugh Arnold, Brian Cunningham, Jason Campbell, Mike Bremser, Tony Manning 62 Ace, JV Ace, Forensics, and Pop Quiz after all our first victories, but we were really scared when we saw the tapes from the St. Anne’s matches; they seemed unbeatable,” said Jason Al- bert, the team captain. The match against St. Anne’s proved to be closer than ex- pected, but the team couldn’t hold its two round lead against the tough St. Anne’s team and finished in second place out of the thirty-two participating schools. “We’ve had our best season in four years, SO we weren’t at all dis- appointed by our loss in the finals,” said Adrian White. Entering a room and find- ing it filled with almost forty students is hardly what one would expect at a meeting of the forensics team, only three years old. Surprisingly enough, this tremendous turnout signified a new and unexpected interest in the or- ganization for speech compe- tition. Howard Yoon said for- ensics was, “A great way to meet new friends.” The new organization known as the Central Virginia Forensics League provided a facility to locally display the team’s talent. The team en- tered three out of five com- petitions in this new league and won all of them. Continu- ing success, the group cap- tured the regional title and for the first time ever, placed third in the state. In addition, the Forensics team became an affiliate member of the Na- tional Forensics League. Pres- ident Jason Albert stated that As the clock ticks: Members of the Ace team work together to figure out the answer.

As members, students were ex- pected to uphold the tradi- tions of scholarship, leader- ship, service, and character. All juniors and seniors with a 3.0 grade point average were automatically allowed to apply to NHS, but a teacher committee selected only the most qualified students for membership.

A larger turnout had been expected, causing some to feel frustrated, but every- one finally decided to make the best out of the situation. Because of the smaller size, both the music and move- ments had to be exaggerated during the shows in order to come across as a full-scale marching band.

Drawings, paint- ings, crafts, and sculptures were all part of the art educa- tion available.

After the Bing dynasty, the interluding Mrs. Judy Gring took over last year, only to be replaced by a veritab le menagerie of teach- ers this year including Ms. Dorothy Marshall, Mrs. Anne Richards, and Dr. Verma Riv- ers. Aside from the math and science departments, the so- cial studies department was also affected. With the loss of Mr. Rodney Suddith, the past years’ AP government teacher, Ms. Marie Waller and Mr. Chip Berry adopted the formidable task of APCG P. Students and tea- chers remained unaffected by the changes and classes moved along in their normal (semi-) orderly fashion. Physics once again held its incredible slinky and centri- fugal force labs and on cer- tain days during class the upper central hall once again Picture this! Coach Frank Murray tries to make his students in his Afro- American History class picture the historic events with a litthke humor thrown in on the side. 80 Math, Science, Social Studies took on the look of a demi- litarized zone. With extended slinkys vibrating and oscillat- ing along the floor, weights swinging dangerously above head level, and physics stu- dents pondering furiously _ over results, (eventually con- sulting some other equally lost pupil), the hall was deadly for any corridor wayfarer. The egg dropping contest of- fered another way for the physics student to cause des- truction, to throw objects out of windows, and to create an- other way for our custodial staff to earn its pay. Mr. Frank Hotz repeated his an- nual fruit fly test. As any stu- dent who walks into the cafe- teria or restroom will remark at the cloud of insects, “Hotz is hot on flies.” Mr. Larry Sledge continued his chemis- try and his famous remark of two years ago still lives on: “There are times and there are other times, and this is not one of them.” Out of Mr. Martin Miller’s computer class came more personal logos, still mo re NFL spread- sheets and David Hawkins’ Top 10 Cool Things about Mr. Miller’s class from the home office in Lincoln, Ne- braska, including 2 watch- ing his orange wallet climb out of his back pocket.

But as Miss Murphy insists, “The op- portunity must be provided for those who want to learn.” 82. Language and Library The big shakeup was the plan to change the English courses for next year. Start- ing in the fall of 1988, most of the English courses offered will be year long courses sim- ilar in set-up to the foreign language classes. For exam- ple, eleventh graders taking average courses will probably take a selections of American Literature class for the entire year. Another change was whole class use of the com- puters in the library. Some classes mainly Writing Lab, Is he dead yet?

Partaking in the numer- ous activities were 130 stu- dents. Though teachers were available to assure that no one caused any trouble in the classrooms, the program was completely run by students. Commander Arlene Tolley explained the way things get done in ROTC: “We have stu- dents in charge of everything, from giving out uniforms to keeping files of each person.

Students took several field trips this year, including going to the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., and Virginia Military Institute.

They also helped at the Lynchburg Fine Arts Center by ushering. The ROTC will reluctantly have to make a change — Ser- geant Maine, who has worked with the program twenty years, will retire at the end of the 1988 school year. Bridgett Bateman, senior, commented that, “I guess it’s about time. He has helped us learn to live our own lives, now it’s about time he lived his.

Actually, Mrs. Betsy Garrard was the supervisor, offering advice and making sure things were running smoothly. The students did their own writing and design- ing. They even did their own printing under the supervi- sion of Mr. Frank Weinmeis- ter. If newspaper was rolled up into a single person, what would it be like?

These students attended the Central Virginia Magnet School for Science and Technology. Located at Heritage High School, CVMS provided an opportunity for students who excelled in math and science to get a head start on preparing for college. Much more freedom was given to the students as compared to their respective high schools. Administrators weren’t checking for hall passes and teachers didn’t call you “out” if you’re three sec- onds late to class. Tuesdays and Thursdays were lab days where students worked on various projects ranging from computer programs and bio- logy experiments to robots and holograms. One big advantage of CVMS was the advanced equipment, includ- ing a desktop publishing system an an electron micro- scope.

Assignments were usually long term so planning ahead was very im- portant. Juniors Marco Lotano, Chris Hudson, and Mark McRorie spent their Friday mornings as interns at local businesses. This pro- vided valuable hands on ex- perience in a field of the students choice. Seniors, Bobby Giordano, David Jones, and Rajiv Parikh par- ticipated in Science seminars on Thursday and Friday. This rotating schedule com- bined with shorter classes took some of the monotony out of the typical school day. “The ability to take more sciences which were not avail- able at Glass was one of the major reasons I chose to par- ticipate in the Magnet School program,” said David Jones. The drop-out rate for Lynchburg City Schools has caused great concern for the community and school divi- sion in the past. However, the LCS Alternative Education Program opened its doors to those who had already dropped out of regular school or were in danger of dropping out. Housed in the Pride Center on Dunbar Campus, the alternative Edu- cation Program’s main pur- pose was to keep students in school. In the program, students attending school in the afternoon and night pro- ceeded through individual learning packets at their own pace with the help of teach- ers. It was also possible for students to include vocational or apprenticeship training within one of the diploma or certificate programs. Pete Barbour, the program direc- tor, was pleased with the pro- gram’s progress this first year. “Most of the students have worked hard for their credits. We spend alot of time counseling and encouraging students. Students are moti- vated because we try to find jobs for them and they see the Pride Center as a fresh start — anew beginning.” — Bobby Giordano Kayla Black A powerful sight: Bobby Giordano magnifies a specimen under an elec- tron microscope.

He has always been interested in small engine re- pair and likes to “take them apart, put them back together and get them running again.” “There’s only one school that stands up and that’s us,” said Mike confidently. Angie Jones, who graduates this year and has an excited sparkle in her eye at the men- tion of her accomplishment, believed that P.E. was her fav- orite subject because she “liked it with Coach Burge.” After school she plans to work at the sheltered industries. Lisa Trent also said that P.E. was her favorite sport because she “like sports so much.” Lisa aspires to be a veterinarian because of her love for ani- mals, and admits a particular afiection for cats.’ Pat Thompson said that market- ing was his favorite class and that he “liked to learn about jobs.” He wants to be a police- man and has had a good start with the Explorer Project, which allows people to ride along with a policeman while he is on his beat. “It’s frustrating until I find the way the student best learns,” said Dorothy Hagen, teacher of the TMR students. This statement certainly char- acterized the unique indi- viduals in the special educa- tion classes. Because the stu- dents were so diverse in their interests, the teachers had to find each of the student’s strengths and work with them. “We help the student phase out any behavioral pro- blems he might have so he can function effectively in the world,” said Mrs. Hagen. Al- lowed to stay in school until they are twenty-one years of age, the students are allowed to improve and learn dif- ferent skills, including home economics, language arts, vocational training, math, and clerical work. After leav- ing the school with a special type of diploma, the student can enter a program known as sheltered industries, get work in the community, or enter the ARC develop- mental center. Two such students who were able to get work in the community were Theresa Lovelace, who gained employment at Pizza Hut, and Louis Stevens, who was able to work at 221 Seafood. “To see the student make progress’ was what Mrs. Hagen felt to be the most re- warding thing about teaching special education. Mrs. Dunn, her assistant, felt the same way. “I enjoy seeing them ac- complish what they set out to Going for the Gold: Maurice Banks approaches the finish line after a hard run race. Maurice placed se- cond in the 100 meter run during the Special Olympics held at Lynchburg College in April. do,” she said. Mrs. Cuvelier, the multi-handicapped teach- er, remarked, “They learn slowly, but when they do learn, it’s really exciting. She was quick to add that these students were extremely hard working and really wanted to learn. She has had students who have gone into small en- gines, marketing, and art classes as part of a work-study program. Most students, she said, will leave school around twenty years of age, but some have left at an earlier age. The special education classes were formerly located at the elementary school level, but has been at Glass for five years now. “Moving here has given them a tremendous ad- vantage,” said Mrs. Hagen, “because we are able to follow their progress all the way through their educational years.” — Jason Campbell Special Education 96 People Divider ZZZZZ ...: Visions of layouts dance in Paul Fitzgerald’s head as he sleeps through his first workshop class of the day.

With a strong effort by the officers, class sponsors, and volunteers, the senior class was responsible for organiz- ing the homecoming halftime ceremony, choosing gradu- ation announcements, and organizing various other fund raising activities for the school and charities. With only David Robertson returning from last year, the group lacked experience, but abounded in enthusiasm and spirit. This enthusiasm, com- bined with a lot of hard work, led to a rewarding year. — CHIP TUCKER Robertson, and President Eddie Dean.

Our own Jason Albert was randomly selected to partake in the try-out sessions in Wash- ington D.C. for the Jeopardy Teen Tournament. There were four try-out sessions with sev- enty people in each one. Each student took two fifty-question tests that lasted thirteen minutes each. Out of 280 people only twelve passed the test. Following the announcement of the twelve people, there was a simulated Jeopardy game show which eliminated three more, Jason being one of the remaining nine. On Thursday December 3, around 3:00 in the afternoon, Jason received a Federal Ex- press package informing him that he was the only Virginia stu- dent chosen to appear on Jeop- ardy. Jason, along with the other contestants, was ensured $1,000 for merely participating. The plane ride and accommodations in Los Angeles were provided free of charge for Jason and his father by the Merv Griffin En- terprises. The show began taping on January 4th and continued throughout the next day. Jason proceeded to the semifinals with a minimum of $5,000 guaran- teed. Unfortunately, after a close match in the semifinals, Speaking with ease: Jason Albert repre- sents the forensics team; he won first placed in extemporous speaking at the Central Virginia Forensics League. Jason ended his winning streak. In Jason’s free time while he was in California, he attended the annual L.A. car show which i ntroduced the 1988 auto- mobiles. He also went sightsee- ing in the ritzy Beverly Hills. Besides being in Jeopardy, Jason was accepted early deci- sion to Princeton University in New Jersey. His straight A’s, his activities such as ACE, Forensics, Popquiz, and Cross country, along with various honors in- cluding first in the nation on the 1987 World History Olympiad, helped him earn acceptance to the prestigious institution. — MARY BETH SYDNOR — BETH HEDRICK Television personality: Jason Albert missed the Final Jeopardy question by answering “What is his visiting China?” instead of “What is landing on the moon?” Even though Jason missed it, he bet no money and advanced to the semi- finals with the incredible amount of $10,000.

Seniors 103 Maybe ‘Tomorrow our schedule has gotten a little out of control. So here you are again reaching for the caffeine, burn- ing the midnight oil, frantically struggling to juggle meaningless words into some semblance of order hoping that you can com- plete your research paper due in Mrs. Mood’s chemistry class tomorrow morning. You knew that you shouldn't have gone out last night, slept late this morning and then spent the afternoon watching the ‘Skins game on T.V. But you did! Why? Because you're a typical P-R-O-C-R-A-S- T-I-N-A-T-O-R. Like the majority of your peers you find excuses to idle away the hours in order to avoid work. You rationalize by think- ing everyone puts something off that they don't like to do. True — that’s normal! Problem 1s, there are those who put off, and The paper’s gone to bed. With the third issue of the High Times out the staff takes “one” day to put everything off. Pll do it later: Instead of writing his re- search paper for Mrs. Diane Stroud, Hunt Cary kicks back with his head- phones, a few peanuts and the highlights of Friday night’s win over Heritage. 104 Seniors off, and off ... until it’s either too late, or, like you, they only have time to do the minimum amount of work needed in order to get by. Why do people procrastinate? As Sophomore Chuck Felmlee says, “You procrastinate because your priorities aren’t set straight. Students would rather be with their friends than finish- ing a Dr. Locke paper ahead of time. When students come from six hours of school they just want to unwind and relax.” That’s un- derstandable! But when do procrastinators finish their work? Sophomore Ben Shenk commented, “People who procrastinate usually do their homework before school either in the library or first period.” “In the morning you can find nearly everyone copy- ing somebody else’s homework,” said Sophomore Brack Davis. “The problem is the peer pres- sure of allowing others to copy your homework,” he added. So, how do you stop procras- tination? One effective solution is to list your activities in order of importance and proceed from the top down. Secondly, teach- ers recommended that you work on the task you find most dif- ficult first, leaving the easiest for last. And, if all else fails there is a computer disk available that helps you manage your time. All you do is fill in your activities and assignments and the time that you have available for them. Then the computer will or- ganize a schedule for you to follow. The only drawback is that you have find the time to work with the computer. Oh well, you can always do it later! — NED MOORE Antonio Dickerson Seay D. Dillard: Indoor Track; To per Tones; FBLA; Forensics; Spanish Club; SOD LuJuan Dillard Crystal L. Dobyns: Home Ec.

The static elec- tricity created by walking across carpet and touching a metal door knob caused a shock. Someone entered the Lynch- burg School Board Meeting room downtown. Board members sitting around “U” shaped table turned their heads, waiting for the inter- rupter to sitdown and be quiet. One person was re- cognizable as a student from E.C. Glass.

The gun fires. She moves con- fidently, staying with the others until she senses the precise mo- ment. Then, instinctively, she pulls out to take the position she belongs in, in front of all the others, to establish that she is a winner. THAT’S Angela Taylor! Angii first become interested in running after racing with her neighborhood friends in the street. The turning point for With tender care: Dr. Bill Fleming looks at Angii Taylor’s ankle as concerned teammates surround her. Un- fortunately, Angii twisted her ankle dur- ing the district cross-country race and was unable to finish. Lengthening her stride: Angela Taylor begins to overpower her opponents and take the lead. Dr. Roger Jones encour- aged Angela to an easy victory against Heritage. 108 Seniors Angii came in her sophomore year when she decided to join the indoor and outdoor track teams. After lettering that year, she proved that she had the po- tential to become an exceptional runner. In her junior year she also joined the cross-country team. Angii lived up to the expec- tations by setting new school, district and regional records in her junior year. She continued to add to her list of accomplish- ments by making the All-State track team after placing third in the 800-meter run and the 1600- meter relay. Running has become a year- round sport for Angi. When asked what her favorite sport is, she quickly replied, “Track — especially the 800-meter run.” Angli runs cross-country in the fall, track in the winter and spring, and trains faithfully dur- ing the summer. Even though she says that almost 50% of her time is devoted to running, she still finds time to lift weights, take aerobics, and swim. With all this activity, how does she find the time necessary to maintain good grades? Angii strongly be- lieves, “Running helps keep my grades up because I know I have to have good grades in order to run.” Because of Angii’s desire to win and her phenomenal athletic ability, she was named Most Valuable Performer in out- door track her junior year and Most Valuable Upperclassman on the women’s cross country team her senior year. She has been a source of inspiration for her teammates and her friends. Angela Taylor is not only a winner, she is definitely ... someone special. — NED MOORE Frances O.

The sophomores went during second period, the se- niors during third. “Hey, does anyone know what this is all about” cried several students as they quickly dispatched from their classes. “Who cares?” shouted several other students, “At least we're getting out of class!” On this bizarre day everything was hush, hush; teachers were even unaware of the situation. Sophomores and seniors na- tionwide were chosen to take part in a survey on drugs and Our. alcohol designed by RMBSI Inc. To ensure honesty, the students were told not to put their names on the questionnaire and that the survey was purely con- fidential. Yet sharing of answers was ob- vious. The sound of giggling echoed throughout the gym. Some students started to become irritated with the lengthy survey. “They asked the same questions over and over, but I guess they had to ask, to get all the different statistics,” said Senior Jason Hardwick. The results came back in mid- January, and to the shock of many parents, the survey showed that alcohol and mari- juana use during the previous thirty days was very high among teenagers in Lynchburg. In fact, use was 1% above the national average. Dr. Jones responded to the re- sults by saying, “I was surprised that coming from the middle school level with all the counsel- ing and instruction given, that the average is still so high i n the Lynchburg area.” Asa result of this high average in alcohol use, the Lynchburg Police set up a major breakdown in the selling of alcohol to teen- agers with fake I.D.’s or to those without proof of age. The break- down resulted in numerous arrests in early January and February. — DAVID ORR Is this for real? Kim Williams and Bonnie Maedgen rack their brains so they can truthfully answer the questions on the drug and alcohol survey. Every other row: Students were spread out all over the gym and sitting on every other row while filling out the national drug survey. Sophomores and seniors were the only ones to take the test.

Cliffs Notes explain the contents of a book in only an hour or two. These’ concise “little books” skip over the tri- vial details and go directly to the author’s important points. Although intended to be used only in conjunction with the actual book, students seldom use both. Freshman Scott Meeks says, “They’re excellent! Sometimes I use them to help me understand a difficult story, and then other times I use them when my time is limited.” Teachers, on the other hand, feel differently. En- glish teacher Diane Stroud believes that “Cliff's Notes can help a student if he reads the book along with the Cliff's, but usually they don’t read the book. Students miss so much when they don’t read the book.” But, as Junior Rick Shuman says with a grin, “Sometimes we (students) love what we miss.” — KAYLA BLACK — NED MOORE eT de suesuar A | The test is tomorrow.

Seniors 11 7 Waiting For That Letter t’s that time of year again, the fall of the school year, when seniors have to com- plete an extra task that adds even more clutter to their rooms. Decisions have to be made and careful selection is a necessity. Constant trips around the state and possibly even the country take a couple days off the regular school routine, but the worrying that is involved makes these trips obsolete. After all is said and done, this worry- ing culminates into a day when a letter will make the difference in a student’s life. Applying to college is a task that most students will have to undertake some time in their senior year. The process starts early in a person’s life, when he decides on his favorite college sports teams or that “he is going to go where his dad went.” It all comes down to a couple of months in the senior year when with the help of handbooks, the ab Re om Eyeing her prospects: Terry Banks gathers information on Longwood Col- lege. College Night proved to be a big success with all the area schools. Mountain Men off to college!?? Stephen “Roo” Royer and Bobby “Junior” Dupree investigate various colleges at College Night. Among their concerns were location, ratio of men to women, and night life. 118 Seniors advice of the counselors, a memory of how the college looks, and now and then a prayer, the student carefully fills out the applications and writes his essays, hoping that he has en- ough credentials to qualify. Guidance counselor Judy Connell suggested that students apply to three types of colleges: one that will be easy to gain admission to, one that will be semi-difficult to get into, and then one that may be very dif- ficult to get into. Students must consider a multitude of char- acteristics of the college before deciding if that’s the right choice. Environment, academic standing, degree potential, and overall quality head the long list. Erich Gerhardt chose Wake Forest because of its smaller size, the fact that it’s an ACC school, and because of its impressive ac- ademic reputation. David Cox chose Virginia Tech for its excel- lent engineering program. College night proved to be a great success in helping students to decide what colleges were right for them. Before going to college night, Dusty Holt ad- mitted having U.Va. as his only real choice for college, but after talking to the representatives of the different colleges, he had second thoughts about others, especially Hampden-Sydney. Once decisions were made about college, applications were filled out, transcripts were re- quested, and teachers were hounded for recommendations. The waiting period from No- vember to April was a long one, so students like Clark Davidson, Erich Gerhadt, Jade Arrington, David Jones, and Jette Hunt were relieved to find out that they were accepted early to their colleges. Those who didn’t apply early just had to wait until that letter was put in their mailbox sometime in the spring. — JASON CAMPBELL Andrea L. Towles: Gymnastics; Ski Club Virginia V.

Unique. Chang- ing. The junior class officers all related to these words. The group con- sisting of President Jennifer Reasor, Vice President Teri Butler, Secretary Shelley Thornton, and Treasurer Alex Perrow made up an en- tirely new collection of offi- cers from their sophomore year. Along with the new faces came new ideas. These offi- cers weren't content with just making it through the year with the usual monotonous activities. They worked hard to overcome their inexperi- ence and to create a unique and successful year. They got off to a fast start by securing the Radisson for the prom and selecting a dif- ferent band from last year, Definitely a The Waller Family, to play the dance. They also played a large role in selecting the first band in Glass’s recent history to play the Homecoming dance. Jennifer Reasor feels that the key to their success was the fact that the officers were such good friends. “Even be- fore we were elected, we were all good friends and that helped contribute to our ability to work well together”, she said. In addition to the major events such as Homecoming and the Prom, the junior class was involved in many other S.C.A. events and fund raisers of their own. They were lacking in experience but definitely not in success. — CHIP TUCKER Tricia Beningo William Berry Tevor Berryman Elena Bertolotti Danielle Bird Wendy Black Aairon Blake Kenneth Bobbitt Deborah Bohn Donovan Bort Charles Botton Hollie Bradley Jill Brammer Winona Braxton Michael Breeden Curtio Brooks Robert Brooks Bernard Brown Bryan Brown David Brown David Brown Michael Brown Yolanda Bruce Mollie Brundage Kimberely Bryant Tania Burks Michelle Burnley Lee Burris Jassen Bury Teri Butler Sarah Calandra Matt Caldwell Audra Callahan Neil Calloway Douglas Campbell Greer Campbell Kristy Campbell Roman Cardwell Roxy Carter Hunsdon Cary Janine Cary Julieann Casey Demetra Cates Sonja Champion Kimberly Childress Laurie Clark Robert Cleland Kristie Coates Shawn Cobbs John Cofer Christopher Coffee Ellen Coffey John Coleman April Collins Craig Connell Chritopher Cox Shannon Cox Gregory Crawford James Crawford Natasha Creasy Monica Cunningham Brian Cyr Delonie Dabney Charles Daniel Juniors | ea Kenneth Daniel Etta Davis Amy Dawson Avery Dean Tiffany Deane Timothy Deane Tracy Dearing William DeFord Elvis DeLoatch Laura DeMars Mary DeMars Patrice Dennis Candi Diehl Addison Dodd James Donald Spring Donneberg Teresa Donovan Derrick Douglas Amanda Dudley Emily Dunn Brian Dunnaville George Dyke Cynthia Eber!

Don was one of the mana- gers for the varsity football team. (ee Juniors An Especially Nice Person d n August it was hot and : dry, but he was out there | on the field at every prac- ‘tice, making sure the football players had all the water and towels they needed. “Being one of the managers on the ‘varsity football team meant ‘the world to Don Dill,” said friend Kate Mays. Even ‘though he could not be a player, Don Dill was one of the ‘most important members on the football team. But Don was more than just ‘a team manager. He played tennis on the Boonsboro Country Club tennis team, and loved outdoor activities, especially fishing and hunting. He was also an excellent stu- dent, but most important, he was a special friend. Don was a very special per- son to many people. “He was an all-around best friend. He could be trusted with anything you told him. He was always there for you, no matter what,” said Mays. “He was the kindest person I have known.” When Don’s close friend Scott Gordon was in a moped accident a couple of years ago, Don rushed home and im- mediately dialed 911. He stayed by Scott’s side through his recovery. Don had the wonderful idea of making a tape of all of Scott’s friends voices to put in Scott’s hospital room in hopes of bringing him out of his coma. As friend Rebecca Hoskins said of Don, “He was one of the few genuinely nice people. He never had anything bad to say about anybody.” Coach Fred Stanberry added, “He set an example for the entire stu- dent body by continuing to work in extracurricular ac- tivities even with the burden of his sickness.” David Garrard Sarah Gayle Katherine Gibbs Cortland Givens Donald Goding Leslie Goff Chris Goode Robert Goolsby Tonya Gopadze Lisa Gorman MacGregor Gould Andrew Govers Christy Grant Lewis Greene Paul Gregory Molly Grooms John GuggenHeimer Neal Gunter Timothy Hahn Brandon Hale Diana Hall James Hall John Halpin Jesse Hanks Courtney Harris Yolanda Harris Stephany Harsley Dorothy Harvey Michelle Harvey Anne Hawkins Ernest Haynes Brandon Haythe Erika Hengst Peggy Hengst Andrw Henson Diana Herndon Jewelle Hicks Tiffanie Hillman Kathryn Holt Charles Hooks To show their love for Don, the entire football team signed the football they used to beat Salem 23-7 and gave it to him.

Last summer they both worked at Camp Kum-Bah- Yah and then participated in the Minnesota Outward Bound Program. Of course, with all the activities they share, says Laura “We're with each other a lot more than with our other two sisters so the two of us are closer.” How are they different? “Laura’s quieter.” “Mary worries more.” And in case you were wondering, they admit they do not have any psychic twin powers. “If Laura gets hurt, I don’t feel the pain,” laughed Mary. Laura added that being a twin is not like running into someone who looks just like you. “I didn’t see myself as Mary.” What are some of the drawbacks to being a twin? As Mary says “It bothers me when people who don’t know one of us but knows the other assumes that what she does is what I'll do, or vice versa. They try to predict” Laura firmly agrees. In addition, Laura says “I don’t mind if — someone comes up and calls me Mary” to which Mary | added, “Yeah, I don’t mind being called Laura, but not — twin or Demars!!” Both feel that the advan- tages to being a twin strongly outweight any disadvantages.

Splat! No, that’s not the sound of your favorite cereal. It’s eggs falling from the second floor roof. Mrs. Marshall and Dr. Rivers’ Physics classes were put to the test on Wednesday November 25. Their challenge was to design and construct an egg “protec- tor” with several require- ments: the protector could be no longer than 20 x 20 x 30 cm and could not excede 75g. It was to be dropped two stories, a height of 13.5 meters, onto the concrete sidewalk, not the grass. Sixty-five students par- ticipated and of these 33% made a successful protector. “Successful” means that the egg did not break. Students used paper, glue, cardboard, paperclips, staples, and rubberbands. The teachers provided the eggs, so that there would be no cheating Richard Rodgers Shelly Rose Serena Rosenbaum Kevin Rosser Terri Rothgeb Valarie Russell Christopher Sackett with eggs from home.

Dr. Jones went to a confer- ence and heard about Rita and liked it so much he brought the idea back to our school. He then needed someone to set it up and maintain it. Since Coach Stanbery was experienced in computer work he was asked to set the system up. After reading many directions that came with Rita he put the machine into action. Although the name implies a female, it is actually Coach Stanbery’s voice on the re- corded message. When asked if he thought it was an effect- ive tool he replied, “Definitely, because it deters students from forging par- ents names on notes when they come back from being sick.” It also has cut down on students skipping school. Rita has the ability to call at anytime during the day and continues calling until someone at each residence is contacted.

The first pep rally of the year began with a bang — literally. Out in the middle of the gym floor stood a box. In- side the box was a big surprise — the school’s new mascot. If you attended any of the foot- ball games or other sports functions and saw a ram cheering with the cheerlead- 132 Sophomores A New Twist ers, you saw the new mascot. Mrs. Jane White, a parent and supporter of the school, took it upon h erself to contact parents and alumni of the school for donations to pur- chase the mascot suit. After trying out, the two people who alternated as the mascot were Senior Peggy Cloyd and Sophomore Bess Tarkington. Each had had three years pre- vious experience as a cheer- leader. They practiced Mon- day nights for three hours with the varsity cheerleaders to learn cheers and pom-pom routines. They also planned what accessories the mascot would wear, such as the foot- ball jersey, jams, and sun- glasses the mascot wore at one of the pep rallies. As Peggy said, “It’s like being a cheer- leader, only better.” One of the ram’s respon- sibilities was to amuse the fans. The girls had to be cre- ative and come up with crazy acts. Because Bess and Peggy switch at half-time, it was hard to recognize who was in the suit at what time. “I can do weird stuff and no one knows who I am,” declared Bess. But the ram did not nec- essarily come just to football or basketball games. The mascot went to any school function he was asked to cheer fer. Being mascot “takes up a lot of time,” as Bess stated. Thanks to the Boosters Club, the fans, and the dedicated girls inside that furry costume, the arrival of the mascot was a huge success. — DANIELLE BIRD With that Hilltopper spirit: The mascot cheers at a football yame. The Hilltopper’s appearance at many sporting events aroused the spirit of the students and faculty. Holding their head up: Bess Tar- kington and Peggy Cloyd are finally unmasked.

He also pointed out that “suspension contributes to the eighteen day policy which effects the drop out rate.” The idea is to keep students in school, enabling them to keep up their grades which would otherwise suffer due to absences from suspen- sion. The Saturday detention didn’t do away with suspen- sion, which was still used for more serious offenses such as alcohol or drug related inci- dents. “It (Saturday deten- tion) is used mainly as a deter- rent,” Mr. Lange noted, “for students who are indifferent to missing school but don’t care to spend their Saturdays in our lovely cafeteria.” — PAUL FITZGERALD Bryce Miller Joseph Miller Mariah Miller Karen Mirolli Sarah Mitchell Robinette Moon Church Moore Ned Moore Everett Moorefield Oterra Morris Elizabeth Morrison Nicole Morrison Consuela Mosley Christopher Moss Jeremy Murray Carol Myers Lauaun Napier Christina Oglesby Connie Padgett Nikos Palacios Alicia Pannell Jennifer Paris Patrick Parnell Antwoine Pennix Serving time: Senior Kerry Chad- A gloomy Saturday: These students derton and Suzanne Thompson spend this early Saturday in the sol- itude of the cafeteria.

All day, students sat in class eagerly anticipating the ever familiar “click click” over the intercom, freeing them from 1 36 Sophomores Could’ve Been the endless lectures, notetak- ing, and tests of school. Why was everyone especially rest- less that day? Because it was SNOWING!! Overnight, while students were dreaming of warm sum- mer days gone by, Lynchburg was hit with its earliest snow in years. Everyone was caught off guard when they woke up to see the white stuff sprin- kled over yards, trees, and, most importantly, streets. While radio announcers con- tinued to predict no accumu- lation, there was no doubt that the snow was sticking. With no end to the snowfall in sight, hopes of being let out early from school were height- ening rapidly. But as every minute dragged on and no sign that the rumors of a shortened day were true, the realization that November eleventh would be like any other day came as a huge dis- appointment. Before turning to rain, a total of 1.5 inches of snow had fallen. But whether by partic- ipating in a snowball fight or just enjoying the excitement of the air, students proved that the day wasn’t a complete let down after all. — Karen Roberson — Catherine Shircliff Clearing it off: Tammy Gilliatt and Siminne Shahrokhi get the freshly fallen snow off their car.

Your first year in high school. While most fresh- men like to keep a low profile to avoid the constant remin- der that they are the low men on the totem pole, Phillip Jones, Jane Willson, Mary Ann Divina, and Margaret Pettyjohn stood right up and put their faces in the light. They were elected president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. Unlike the other class offi- cers, the freshmen were elected at the beginning of Freshman Class Officers: Treasurer Margaret Pettyjohn, Secretary Mary the year. As soon as they were elected, the officers jumped right on the bandwagon and began contributing to the S.C.A. as well as their class. As with the sophomore class, the freshmen usually took a backseat to the up- perclassmen, but were always there helping when they could. The freshman class was said to be one of the most spirited in the history of E.C. Glass, and it was definitely re- flected by its officers. — CHIP TUCKER Anne Divina, President Phillip Jones, and Vice-President Jane Wilson.

As his heart pounds in his throat, those “friends” in the back row begin snickering and making faces. His feet shuffle and the podium rocks. Shift- ing the notecard to the back of the pile, the entire pile slips through his sweaty hands, and the cards drift to the floor. Chuckling nervously, he searches his brain for the information that now lays on the ground. He draws a blank and, now, at the mercy of the class, his face flames in scar- let. Although this situation is a slight exaggeration, class presentations really are the general enemy of students. This villain seems to lurk in the corners of every English, history, or science class. De- spite its damaging effects, this enemy can be tolerable. As Chuck Felmlee says, “It takes up a lot of good class time.” True — for twenty to thirty pupils to give presentations, a week can be booked. Of course, listening to them can be tedious, but that’s the price the class pays. The other weapon students possess to hurt this villain is the fact that they usually help the grades. Dr. Locke says that the gener- ally good grades he gives for class presentations is how he “compensates for the pain” he causes by giving the assign- ment. The class can make or break a student’s presenta- tion. Intentional damage — funny faces, coughs, and giggles — can be distracting to even the calmest of speak- ers. Daydreaming, dozing, and doodling are uninten- tional acts that intimidate the student almost more than the obvious distractions. Dr. Locke says that he likes some of the presentations, but overall does he like listening to them? “Generally,” he says, “no.” So whatever the assign- ment, remember that no one is alone in having to conquer this villain. It attacks each and every student. It bombs confi- dence and shakes nerves. It requires preparation and perfection. So take a deep breath, gather your nerves, and conquer the class €nemy — give that class presentation with confidence and pride! — BARCLAY LIVINGSTON David Hall William Hamlet Angie Harris Brenda Harris Ralph Harrison Vicki Healy Scott Hengerer Frederick Henry Huy Hoang April Holloway Michael Holmes Allyson Hopkins Jason Horda Warren Horsely Robert Hoskins Laura Huckabee Jennifer Hudson Merridy Hughes Sarah Hughes Robert Humphreys Huston Hunt Tanisha Hunter Carlos Hutcherson Sherri Hutcherson Elizabeth Hutter James Irvine Brian Jackson Gregory Jackson Dayna Jarels Lydia Jenkins James Jennings Scott Jewell Alan Johnson Carl Johnson Erica Johnson Rebecca Johnson Roger Johnson Roger Johnson Holly Jones Joshua Jones Playing the role of a teacher: Jenny Zierden presents E.E.

Ben’s interest in cards was in- itiated by his father, who began collecting cards as a boy. Never losing his interest in the hobby, Mr. Fischoff en- couraged Ben to start how own collection when Ben was eight. The two have spent countless hours putting together a spectacular collec- tion. Ben, an avid baseball player as well as enthusiastic fan, takes great pride in his card collection. He considers his most unique card an auto- graphed Lynchburg Met Dwight Gooden card that he acquired several years ago after sending an entire set of Lynchburg Mets cards away to be autographed by the team. His oldest, and most valuable, cards are his 1953 Mickey Mantle and several 1953 Bowman cards. Ben says his favorite card is his Don Mattingly rookie card be- cause “I feel Don Mattingly is the best there is today. He will more than likely be the greatest player of all time.” What makes a card val- uable? Ben says, “Condition, year, cut and quality of the player on the card.” In order to keep baseball cards val- uable they must be stored properly. To store these thousands of cards Ben sep- arates the choice cards from the good ones. He then puts his better cards in alphabeti- cal order in plastic sheets and places them in albums; while he stores his common cards in specifically designed boxes. To the novice collector Ben offers this advice, “Buy any cards you can!

He feels that baseball cards are a great investment if you know what you are doing. Collecting baseball cards may be just an on-going fad for some people, but to col- lectors like Ben it is some- thing that can be cherished forever. — NED MOORE Cis ips a Mo Another one for the books: Ben Fischoff carefully adds a card to his 50,000 plus collection.

When infected students were asked this ques- tion they either answered, “I couldn’t see any of my friends,” or “I hated the spots.” These teenagers were victims of the chicken pox. Missing the disease as children, some unlucky students caught a mild case of it this winter. Out of the many who became infected, some were not sure who they got it 144 Freshmen from or who they gave it to. Mr. Yeatman’s third period photography class had four students with the pox: Sherri Adams, Jeff Karras, Sarah Calandra, and Jeremy Hell- man. No wonder the germs spread so fast! Other students who caught it were Scott Jack- son, Wilson Marks, Daryll Humbles, Katherine Fergu- son, and Joseph Cloubh. How did these students spend their lazy days at home? Instead of watching television the whole time, Sarah Calandra got prepared for the Christmas holidays by wrapping presents. Having four or five free days to catch up on homework, Jeff Karras relaxed and enjoyed the fact that he was missing school. Because he became sick at the end of the school week, a dis- appointed Jeremy Hellman said, “I couldn’t go out and party that weekend.” — LIZ LOVERN I got it!

Teachers and their families gathered at Smith Mountain Lake for the “Faculty Family Frolic.” Mr. Ackley provided the house, dock, and boat; the guests brought food, fellowship, and enthusiasm. The group was divided into four teams: the red, blue, green and white. Heading these teams were the administrators — Dr. Encouraging his team: Leroy Cofield coaches his team in the Bucket Brigade race. Despite his enthusiasm his team fell short and lost to Dr. Roger Jones’ team, but questions remained as to who’s team was the true winner. t Just a little bit more to the right: Mr. Bob Boe aimlessly tries to get the “cold” water into the cup that Lance Yeatman is holding. Mrs. Sheila Sledge tried to guide him in his attempt. 146 Faculty Jones, Mr. Cofield, Coach Palmer, and Mr. Lange. The fac- ulty showed their talents in the egg-toss, bucket brigade, and the three-legged race, to name only a few of the games played. Mr. Cofield proved himself an excellent egg-tosser; Mrs. Morrison was a superb three- legged racer. There was a lot of bragging, and just some good, clean fun. Coming out ahead in the end was Dr. Jones’ team, although Mr. Ackley revealed that “they cheated.” Mr. Lange, who had his own suspicions of Dr. Jones’ team’s foul play, too, added that “they won’t win again.” True winners or not, this team won the privilege of eating first. Because of the good repre- sentation of faculty and their families, the day was quite a suc- cess. Everyone had a glorious day in the sun and a nice break from the monotony of grading papers. In spite of the rivalries, Mr. Lange felt that “the whole time was a lot of fun.” — BARCLAY LIVINGSTON Mr. Jim Ackley: Acting | and 2, Glass Theatre Adviser Mr. Rudy Adams: Drafting, Architecture Drawing, and Engineering Drawing Mr. Pete Barbour: Introduction to Business; Coop G l and 2; Business Honors Advisor; FBLA Advisor Mrs. Tina Barnes: Resource Mrs. Anne Barrett: Media Assistant Mrs. Peggie Benton: Spanish | and 2; Spanish Club Advisor Mr. Robert Boe: Elementary Functions; Trigonometry; Key Club Advisor Mrs. Pat Brockman: French | and 2; French Club Advisor Mrs. Eunice Brown: Word Processing; ryping; Officer Services Mr. Dave Bryan: General Industrial Arts; Woodwork | and 2; Head Coach V.

It’s Coach Bill Siegel, the first sports trainer at Glass. Now, how did this California, Pennsylvania na- tive come to hear of this job?

Bored, he began leafing through a magazine that happened to have an ad C6 148 Faculty After School Detention Retardation Geometry and Womens Track New Kid On the Block for a trainer here at Glass. He applied and later heard from Coach Murray. Coach Siegel has always loved sports, and since high school has been interested in medicine. What exactly is his job? He arrives at school around 9:00, teaches World History third through fifth periods, has lunch duty dur- ing second lunch, eats sixth period, and begins taping ankles at 2:05. From 2:05- 5:00, he acts as an injury consultant and strength coach, and circulates around the practices and sporting events. Like all trainers and medical personnel, he does get the occasional “sandbag” or faker, but he treats them like any normal injury. The worst accident he has seen was on his way to Glass one day: A Holy Cross girl got hit by a car (he saw it happen), and he had to give her mouth- to-mouth resuscitation. — MOLLIE HOWERTON With a delicate touch: Trainer Bill Siegel carefully tapes up Nelson Fos- ter’s ankle before wrestling practice.

Con- stantly grade papers? No. Plan how they'll destroy us the next day? Let’s hope not. For many, jogging, playing basketball, aerobics, and fishing were fa- vorite activities. Each teacher had his or her own personal reasons for doing a particular activity; some did it for the mere love of the sport, while others wanted to feel and look good. Coach Berry, a vol- leyball nut, went to the beach on many weekends to participate in volleyball tournaments. He also played soccer and basketball. Dr. Locke, who ran in the Ten- Miler, started running when he quit smoking. Then he started running four miles almost every morning, and he occasionally played tennis on the side. Studies show that the better you take care of yourself when you're younger, the better you'll look when you're older. Coach Radick, a health and physical education major, said that people who are physically active and eat right will stay slimmer, and thus have a better self- image. The key to fitness is to enjoy yourself, don’t strain yourself. Coach Radick stated, “Young people are fatter today because they are less active than they were ten years ago. Com- puters and the video age influ- ence this inactiveness.” The fitness craze is toning down and moving to lower im- pact sports — bowling, golf, tennis, even walking.

Because six grad- uated last year, the team’s goals weren't set as high (their goal was to win regionals instead of state), and they had to deal with a fairly new team.

But this didn’t stop the girls from gain- ing what they truly wanted: the regional title. They soundly de- feated Woodbridge in the finals, advancing to the state tournament. The tennis team won the first round at state, eliminating Kempsville 9-0.

They couldn’t do anything right. The Lady Patriots had a 6-0 lead before the Toppers even looked like they wanted to play. But mid- way through the game the team started to click, begin- ning to make a come- back. It wasn’t enough and the team suffered a 15-10 loss.

The Top- pers took control and held the Patriots to only seven points and went on to win the game and the match 3-1. The rivalry between the two teams made the game a special win. Coach Wills remarked, “We knew we had to play well in order to win. There were times when we drop- ped and didn’t play at our level of capability.” The beginning of practice in the heat of early August came as a struggle to those who had been relaxing all summer. The team began with only two start- ers and three other returning varsity players. Again the Top- pers hosted the ECG Invita- tional Tournament. After los- ing key player Margaret Hobbs to an ankle injury, the team managed to capture second place, losing to Amherst in the finals. Throughout the season the team did consider- ably well considering the level of experience. Millie Sue Albertson commented, ‘‘Even though we were not victorious in achieving the Dis- trict Title, we all felt we had ac- complished a great feat by coming back after losing four starters.” Margaret Hobbs made the First Team All West- ern District team, Millie Sue Albertson and Angela Aser- nault received second team honors, and Lauren Weigand received Honorable Mention. Margaret Hobbs stated, “It was an uphill struggle all the way, but we didn’t have enough mo- tivation at the end to pull us over the top.” Coach Wills remarked, “It was the season that almost was.

Un- fortunately, enthusiasm quickly turned into disappoint- ment when, as soon as the rival teams lined up for the kickoff, rain started to pour down and the game was cancelled. Spirits rapidly lifted as the energetic athletes won their next two games without allowing the op- posing teams to score. How- ever, the boys’ confidence col- lapsed due to an excessive number of penalties called against them and their weak execution of plays. Guard Eric Come on guys! Coach Richard Morris makes good use of a time out during the first half of the game with North- side. This was Coach Morris’ first year with the ninth grade team. He helped them to a 8-0 victory in this game and a 6-1 record overall. Freshman and JV Football Grinnell added, “We really wanted to prove to all the people who said that we couldn’t win that they were wrong and we could win.” The heart-breaker of the season was experienced in the game against G.W. Danville. The J.V. team had taken the lead a short time before Dan- ville obtained possession of the ball and threw a last minute hail mary pass to score and win the game. “We were only one play away from being 6 and 1,” stated Coach Ed Dellinger. Although the next two games proved to be overwhelming victo- ries, it was a tight race against Patrick Henry. Center Chris Baker recalled, “It was the toughest game of the year.” Afterward, Coach Dellinger called it “the most frustrating game in his career.” With the ultimate loss to Heritage, the season ended with only a few minor injuries and an im- pressive 5-2 record. The freshman football team presented Head Coach Jim Ra- dick with a huge challenge. Not only was he working witha newly formed team, but Coach Radick added two fresh faces, Coaches Richard Morris and Mike Lee, to his staff. From the beginning of the season the coaches stressed team unity. “Not being a very big team physically, we had to execute the fundamentals and good technique to win,” stated Quarterback Brad Pennington. And win they did with a fan- tastic 6-1 season. Coach Radick and Morris both agreed that the Northside game was “the toughest of the season.” The unbeaten North- side team abruptly walked off the field after a heated offici- ating dispute which gave the Topper freshman team an 8-0 win. The season thriller, and the only blemish, was the rigorous game against Heritage. Although the freshmen did not perform spectacularly, they were courageous and forceful enough to take the game into two sensational overtimes be- fore being defeated 12-6. Coach Morris summed up the season by stating, “Anytime you go 6-1 you have a great sea- son.” — Ned Moore Oops! Chad Evans is forced to reroute his path due to oncoming Knights. Chad was the starting quarterback for the 5-2 junior varsity squad and along with rushing for a quick eight yards on this play, Chad helped lead the team to a 22-0 victory against the tough Char- lottesville team.

For the second year in a row we took home the Western Dis- trict Championship, but for the first time in over ten years the team went 11-0 in the regular season and took only one de- feat, coming at the hands of the Courtland Courgars in the regional finals. The historic season began August tenth W 7. The extended season came to a disappointing close No- vember twenty-eighth on an unforgettable thirty-six degree day. The Toppers faced the Courtland Courgars on a mud covered City Stadium field, drenched with several days worth of rain. Courtland’s offensive scheme, a Delaware Wing T, seemed much more with two days on the Calvert Jones scorching, dusty, lower field. The team began its winning ways with two victories at the Danville Jam- boree at the end of the month and an impressive defeat over a tough Charlottesvile team in a scrimmage just before the sea- son opener with Northside. Throughout the season the Big Blue rolled over every district opponent and downed tough non-district opponents such as Patrick Henry and Caves Springs. Overall they outscored their opponents 295-101, usu- ally striking most devastatingly in the third quarter. “We were definitely a second half team,” remarked Coach Stanberry. After clinching the district title with a 16-14 victory over Heritage the Hilltoppers faced William Fleming in the first round of the regional playoffs and crunched the Colonels 21- suited for the conditions, and was virtually unstoppable. The Toppers couldn’t seem to pro- duce any offensive threat and suffered a heartbreaking 14-0 loss. Despite the fact that the sea- son came to a close earlier than expected, the team was pleased with its play. As Bobby Gior- dano put it, “Teamwork, dedi- cation, and the ability to pick up the pieces when the chips were down enabled us to have such a successful season.” Cal- vert Jones agreed, “Nothing got us down, we never gave up and we consistently had the ability to bury teams in the second half.” — Paul Fitzgerald Varsity Football e consistently had the ability to bury teams in the second half.’ — | | iT | | if | ‘ Reaching higher: With a smile of sat- isfaction, Jennifer Reasor reaches for the high bar as Jenny Edlin goes to move the springboard.

Weak- nesses on rebounding affected the defensive as well as the offensive game. The new 3-point shot regulation was an advan- tage for team captain Randolph Austin, who scored the major- ity of these goals along with Brentwood Kirvin. The reason for the importance of the three point play was that the op- ponents “had to cover us, which opened it up for Levi in- side,” according to Kirvin. Austin emphasized that the three point shot could “make or break a team.” Two key players from the bench, Barry Perkins and David Wade, added to the team unity and strength. Wade stated that, “When we were allowed to shoot more, we gained confi- dence in our shooting and started to win games.” Fans at the games continued throughout the season to pump up the team spirit and keep things goi ng.

In addition to selling oranges and grape- fruit, in August they sold pro- teams, but their magnetism en- couraged school pride. Page Youell, captain of the squad, noted, “It is on of the best ex- periences to work together as a squad for the school.” Even the little things counted, such as the candy, little footballs they threw to the crowd at games.

Not only did the cheerlead- ers rally the crowd and the teams.” Equally as energetic and dy- namic was another group of superior athletes. Their voices were heard at pep rallies, and their enthusiasm was evident through football programs and other fund raisers.

The squad also sold M M’s, cheese and sausage, hot dogs, baked goods, and fresh fruit. Programs sold at varsity football and basketball games gave the squad a 15% profit.

From the first day of tryouts on a balmy mid-November af- ternoon, Coach Chip Berry knew he had a winning team. “Based on what I saw in try- outs, this was the most talent I had seen come through here at the 9th and 10th (grade) levels in ten years. I felt that the people I cut could have been competitive in the Western District,” said Coach Berry. After weeks of tedious and exhaustive practice, the drive for victory began. But hopes were shattered quickly in the opening game by the over- powering defense of Pulaski. “After the loss of the first game,” remarked Coach Berry, “you could tell the boys didn’t want to lose any more games and we didn’t.” Accordingly, the J.V. team began executing their up-tempo style game of press and run. They concen- trated on applying excessive pressure to Opposing teams and capitalized on “getting out” on a fast break. The com- bination of cool playing and hustle along with team unity and spirit stifled foe after foe enabling the J.V. team to win the next 14 games. “There were two games in 6-4, 6-5. and.14-1 It all added up to... WINNING particular that stand out to me,” revealed Sophomore An- twoine Pennix. “The victories against G.W. Danville and Albemarle were both won in overtime. We won the G.W. game because of their mistakes and in our last game against Albermarle, we were down by five with two minutes to go, but we tied with a big shot at the buzzer, went into overtime and won by four.” Aided by the talents of SEASONS Kozerow had one focal point in mind, “Part of the philosophy, at least on my part, of a ninth grade team is that every mem- ber plays each game rotating starters to give everyone a lot of experience. So we didn’t necessarily have the best com- binations on the floor at all time, but different combina- tions to give everybody dif- ferent experience was our goal, so I’m very pleased with a winning record..” Soph- In omore Coach tam 6 his was the most talent I had seen Koze- Pen- come through here at the 9th and tow’s nis, 10th (grade) levels in ten years.’ — Coach ist pee. Chip Berry ane men work- Mar- ing cellus Deloatch and Roger Johnson, these ultra athletes outscored their opponents by an average margin of 17 points per game. With close to an un- blemished season and the Western District title, Coach Berry proudly added, “As the Halifax paper noted ... our second team was better than their first team. Talented players was . . . the key to suc- cess.” Following in the footsteps of the J.V. team, the novice fresh- man basketball squad netted an impressive 6-5 season. Coming into the season Coach Kevin with the freshman team, he saw an abundance of talent. The first game against Heritage was the point where Coach Kozerow saw his players come together as a team. “Although down by a lot at the half,” Kozerow noted, “the players rallied for a big come from be- hind victory. Everybody chipped in and the right com- binations came together.” With the peak scoring of Er- nest Waugh, the consistency of Cornell Bird, and the defen- sive spark of Terry Tucker, throughout the season as Coach Kozerow added, “everyone did Girls’ J.V.

But Coach Kozerow spurred the boys on with his secret weapon. For those who drew charges, he would compensate them with a Snicker’s candy bar. Like the ninth grade team, the JV girls forged from behind for a winning season. “With a lot of inexperience the girls worked hard to finish up with a winning season,” commented Coach Machelle Penn. With only ten players it was pred- ominately a rebuilding year, the majority of players being freshmen. After opening their season with a disappointing 41- 14 loss to Albemarle, the opti- mistic athletes quickly re- gained their vigor and com- bined their talents to create a dominant team. The ultimate game for this team was their final game with Albemarle which they won 27-21. Aided by the exceptional scoring and rebounding of Addie Price, the team united to provide the needed basket, steal or key pass to end the sea- son with a 6-4 overall record and a three-way tie for first place in the district. — Ned Moore What form!

He swaggers a bit, carefully keeping his front foot outside the batter’s box until his back foot is precisely where it be- longs.

Practice for J.V. baseball began in late February. Each day after intense conditioning and tedious drills with the var- sity team, the J.V. players then concentrated on perfecting in- dividual skills. Coach Dellin- ger explained, “We were very Two against one! Sophomore Tom Lipscomb overcomes his odds as he plows through two opposing Alber- marle players.

Revely and Ronnie Slaughter, and dom- inant defensive players Marshall Wood, Matt Elliott and Doug Kelly helped the young team accumulate and 8-6 sea- son record and a 4-5 re- cord in the district. Coach Dellinger re- called the highlight of the season as “sweeping Amherst twice in a double header and winning against Halifax at the end of the season, the worst beating ever at Halifax.” Their toughest opponent, however, was Heritage, losing to them three times 7-11, 8-13 and 0-1. The last two weeks of the season were unusually stressful for the aspiring J.V. team as they played eight games in ten days. But cat- cher Ben Fischoff noted, the last two weeks were physically ex- hausting, playing many games ina short time frame was major chal- lenge for us and we were deter- mined not to let the physical stress take over until the last ball of the season was thrown.” Not throwing or hitting balls, but kicking them instead was upmost in the minds of the J.V. soccer team. The three hour a day practice schedule gave the J.V. soccer players the time needed to perfect a full range of skills that their posi- Za. tions demanded. Coach Jamie Wells felt “very optimistic” about the soccer season be- cause “I had coached some of the tenth graders in the fall and I knew their potential.” The aggressive young team, led by Coaches Tom Waite, Berry and Wells ended the sea- son with only three looses, giv- ing them a season record of 9- 3. Freshman Timmy Sawyer believed their closest competi- tor to be “Albermarle because they had alot of good players,” while Coach Wells added “Avenging the loss of their first game to Heritage was the high- light of the season.” A unique addition to the competitive J.V. team was hav- ing a female teammate. “She has played with us through the years in the city league and everyone accepted her right off the bat,” said Coach Wells. “It never was really an issue with the team.” Instead, executing a spectacular head trap, manipu- lating a scissors kick or maneu- vering a daring sliding tackle were the “issues” that were up- most in the minds of the zealous J.V. soccer team that made them tops in their league. — Ned Moore JV Baseball and Soccer 5 the season went along we matured and seemed to peak at the end of the season.’ — Coach Ed Dellinger 193 | | | U DS)!

TO THEIR POTENTIAL n Saturday, February 20th, the first official day of spring prac- tices, the team met on the. lower field, hoping to win their fourth straight Western district Championship. With the com- petition throughout the district rapidly increasing, Coach Chip Berry knew his booters would be tested and everyone in the district would be gunning for them. The team cruised through the first half of the district sea- son with Chris Gowen leading the team in scoring. After soundly beating district op- ponents Halifax, G.W. Dan- ville, Amherst, and Heritage, the team put their 46 game winning streak on the line against arch rival, Albemarle. Going into the match as How- ard Yoon stated, “The team was mentally ready.” The team looked sluggish in the first half, and Albermarle took a 1-0 lead u Shot: Chris Gowen has a slim chance to score on this shot against a packed G.W. goal. However Chris was able to put two goals in against the Eagles to lead the booters to a 4-0 win.

The team prepared for their own invitational. After the tournament, the team was sluggish and suffered a 3-3 tie with crosstown rival Heritage in a controversial match. The meter ran an extra thirteen minutes and Heritage scored with five minutes left, eight minutes after the natural regulation time. “A win ora tie really did not matter in the Heritage game because it had no bearing on the first and second place standing. We would have liked to win the game but we still knew we had to beat Albemarle to win the regular season championship,” Berry said. The booters did de- feat Albemarle by a score of 2- 1 in the their second regular season match up. The following week the Toppers hosted the District match but were beaten in the finals by Albemarle. For the seniors it was the first time they were not able to compete in the regionals, but the season had a lot of ups an downs. Berry summed it up by saying, “I was proud of the kids; they played to their potential throughout the year.” He was also excited about beating previously un- beaten teams and having the chance to play the eventual state champs, Lake Braddrock. — David Orr Getting into the middle of it: For- ward Carter Berry aggressively maneu- vers himself so he can steal the ball from his Albemarle opponent.

It took awhile for everyone to get the hang of yearbook, but we got the ball rolling. We had some rough spots with picking the right picture, finding captions, re- writing captions and rework- ing layouts, but we did it. Thanks to everyone on the 1988 staff for your hard work and effort, especially those who gave up afternoons, Sat- urdays, and Spring Break to help meet our deadlines. I want to say a special thanks to Dear Patrons, each section editor for making sure your section was ready at deadline time. I want to say thanks to Ned Moore for all his time and excellent layout work and wish him Good Luck next year. I also want to thank Mr. Charlie Garrison our Hunter Publisher. Thanks for always being patient, making cor- rections, and giving us extra time. And for each of your little jokes. My deepest thanks go to Mr. Hank Yeatman, who made it possible to have a successful year and a great book. All your encouragement, prodding and caring made being an Editor the best. I'll never forget my 2nd period photography class and all I learned, bread sticks and pizzas, Hardee’s jelly bis- cuits, or mushroom burgers and Dr. Pepper. Thanks for everything, Hank. — Lauren Weigand Thank you for supporting the staff of The Crest.
