For centuries the buffalo has survived the many ravages and abuses of the reckless man, Caught between races of man during the Indian wars of the late nineteenth century, the American buffalo was very nearly slaughtered into extinction. But the buffalo did survive. With a small band of only twenty-one remaining in Yellowstone National Park, a bill was signed by President Grover Cleveland in 1889 to protect the buf- falo. Thus began the comeback of the buffalo . . . a saga of survival. continued on 5 WK Raggedy Ann and Andy falias sophomoresjessica Taylor and Tracy Dodsonj make an appearance ar the Drama Club Halloween Party.

With an em- phasis on the athletic program, I-laltom began its trek towards perfection. Though both the football and basketball teams finished trying seasons, it was evident that something spectacular was beginning to happen within. A new spirit the spirit of the buffalo had found its home. To Haltom, survival also meant restoration.

X he Art Club took to the task of reinstilling pride into the massive form. Restoration also took place in the school building itself. Painting occurred throughout the building and all door locks were replaced. An outdoor walkway connecting the north and south wings was extended several feet to prevent flooding during rain. Likewise, construction of a new athletic facility began, to accom- modate the football team, while the Haltom gymnasts utilized the new gymnastics facility. Thus, survival marked the beginning of a long line of changes in store for Haltom. In the case of the 19th century buffalo, survival was based on numbers. Endangered by their own small and declining numbers, they faced extinction. In a similar case, numbers have become a problem with Halrom. In a district with only two high schools and no attendance boundaries, Haltom has been con- fronted with declining numbers and the underdog syndrome. Irs graduating class contained only 395 members, a decline of more than a hundred from the year before. What's more, Haltom students numbered nearly a thousand less than its neighborhood competitor, Richland. Thus, the administration, as well as the student body and facul- ty, became concerned with the sur- vival of Haltom. And it was this con- cern that provided the spark of hope that was needed to initiate the comeback the comeback of the buffalo . . . a saga of survival.

A SAGA OF SURVIVAL Seniors john McPherson, Frank North, and Darren Hooker tour the Bronze Age exhibit at the Kimhell Art Museum with the Honors English classes. s. it-M 11 1 Q, cademic survival was a real challenge for some students, all year long. To survive high school, one was required to keep up with the attendance policies set forth by the Birdville Independent School District. These required all students to make up any class hours over ten absences a semester, The policy also rewarded those who upheld good at- tendance and grades, through ex- emptions of semester exams. Students were also required to pass the required number of courses, to survive as a high school student. However, survival, academically, was not too difficult, especially for those who accepted the challenge, and were able to enjoy high school at the same time. ,ai 2 1 3 A f V , I 'laid' ? bf jg ahh During the journalism convention at UT at Austin, Kim Allen, Lindajacobs, Katrina Lewis, Sharon Pelzel. and Lisa Estill tour the state capitol building. CAMPUS BUSINESS offer ser School sponsored businesses teach students to relate with customers and goin valuable Worl-t experience by Kim Allen . . . Smoked glass windows and a carpeted waiting area complete with leather bound chairs and a coffee table littered with the latest issues of Cosmopolitan . . . Chrome framed mirrors reflecting Sassoon School of Hair Design diplomas on the wall . . . Modular plastic shelves holding all types of hair styling appliances . . . Do all these things justify paying 5520 simply to get a haircut? If the answer is no, an alternative does exist. Cosmetology students have been cutting customers' hair at discount prices the entire 14 years Mrs. Marie Crafton, instructor, has been teaching here. Two dollars was all a haircut cost if it was done by a senior, but cuts were free if per- formed by a junior. Other prices ranged from 50 cents for a manicure without oil to a cold wave starting at 59. Bleaches, temporary color, permanent color, facials and pedicures were also offered at minimum charges. The prices were determined by the cost of the products used and the work that was re- quired. Profits, along with any tips the girls received, paid for purchasing new items and any excess funds benefited VICA, the Voca- tional Industrial Clubs of America. Regular customers were usually scheduled for Thursdays or Fridays, while drop-ins came on Mondays, Tuesdays, or Fridays. Mrs. Crafton supervised the girls when they worked on customers to insure against anything going wrong. It gives us experience working with peo- ple, and we will be working with people the rest of our lives, Lisa Barnett, junior, said. The future cosmetologists did gain ex- perience, and also the ability to handle a variety of situations. Customers like us to cut their hair because we go slower and do our best, and they don't have to pay as much. They really like our humor, too, Lori Talley, senior Cosmetology class treasurer, commented. The only catstrophy that occurred was a water nozzle slipping from a girl's hand as she washed a woman's hair, and spraying the entire room in a cold rain. Un-campus enterprises ices at low rates Senior Sheryl Thornhill helps junior Sheri Osmon as she practices bleaching small pieces of hair, so she will know how long to leave bleach on customer's hair to achieve the desired affects. Another memorable event took place when Senior Lynn Savolonis fulfilled a lifetime desire of a 90-year-old woman by piercing her ears. Myrtle Sullivan, the adopted grandmother of senior Sheryl Thor- nhill, stated, I've always wanted to have my ears pierced, but I've never had the chance until now. Lori related, In this class, you never do the same thing twice, each day is a different experience. Two other courses also offered services to the public at discount prices. Auto-body and auto-mechanics classes charged only the price of the parts and materials used for repairs. Profits were made by charging the retail value for parts that were bought wholesale for the school. This money paid for new tools and equipment in the shops, district convention expenses, and field trips. Auto-body students, taught by Mr. Charles Cauttrell, had worked on eight cars by the end ofthe first semester. We usually complete 25 to 65 cars a year, depending on the condition they are in. Most have been pretty bad off, bent frames, totals, et cetera, stated Mr. Cauttrell. Although no advertising was done, the students never lacked a supply of cars to work on. jeff Ott, senior, explained, I enrolled in this class because it's the only part of cars I don't know about, the body work, You never see shops advertising for in experienced body help, they don't have the time to train new people. So you have to get the experience in high school, or try to teach yourself and hope for the best, joe Ber- tholf, junior, explained. Auto-mechanics classes, taught by Mr. Harold Black, accepted any car that needed mechanical repairs. Most jobs took between three days and a week to finish, with 15 to 20 cars completed each month. Like auto-body, auto-mechanics always had plenty of cars to work on, though sometimes, while waiting for parts to come in, time was devoted to sweeping and clean- ing the shop. journalism department doughnut sales proved to be the most profitable enterprise on campus. Averaging 350 per week profits benefitted the newspaper staff by paying debts and supplying some extra money to use on equipment. It started when a man from LoneStar sat eight dozen doughnuts on the front seat of Senior Cary Stegall's car at 4 a.m. one morn- ing in October. Cary, according to the plan, took the doughnuts to school with him where newspaper staffers sold them. Priced at 25 cents for plain and 30 cents for cholcolate, the doughnuts were gone by homeroom. With such a good response from students, Mrs. jennifer Tomlinson, newspaper spon- sor, soon decided to raise the number to 12 dozen each day. Mrs. Tomlinson stated that as long as the doughnut sale remained profitable, she plan- ned to continue iris CAMPUS BUSINESS fax Rory james and Kevin McCurry, both seniors, connect the cruise conxrol after installing an engine in auto-mechanics class Senior cosmetoiogy students Tammy Looney.

RULES Benchwarmers Mike Klepper,jarrel Maurice, and Doug Fowler exemplify that even sophomores can sit in the foyer. 1'-wH.,.,.-.a.n.,....,, .. Buff head resurrected Something old, something new by Annie Estill By Annie Estill Why does a new rule become an old tradi- tion! Because each class which passes through wants to leave a part of itself by contributing a new tradition. Our new Buffalo head, contributed by the art department, was designed and made by Lisa jones and Pam Williams. Pam's mother donated most ofthe materials needed. The old Buff head had become worn and there was a demand by Tommi llall, mascot, for a new one. The Agricultural Department brought forth new rules which limited the sale of chocolate candies and carbonated beverages until after the last lunch at 1:50. Therefore fruit drinks replaced the carbonated beverages throughout the machines. Two policies enforced through the office were the filling out of a complete form when a student was tardy in order to keep accurate files and records, and an on campus suspension policy which proved to be a better solution for disciplinary problems than licks which were still given if needed in a situation. Assistant principal lid Logan commented that the boys who received the choice of licks or OCS would choose the licks and would ob- viously not learn from their mistakes. Nevertheless, the older traditions were still an important element of our school such as Senior Skip Day which was known by all Seniors as the last lfriday of April in which all We-4 Laurie Foster, Radonna Brooks, Tommi Hall, and Tammy Simmons end the Burleson pep rally with the traditional Senior Circle. the Seniors usually headed for Twin Points at Eagle Mountain Lake. Some of the practiced traditions of the cam- pus included the initiations into clubs, such as Highsteppers and Cosmetology. The Sophomores and juniors entering Cosmetology cooked breakfast for the other members. Then at a party the old members painted the faces of the new members and spray different colored hair spray on their hair. This was usually done during Halloween. The new members of the drill team must get on their hands and knees and name off all the other girls and then kiss their feet as they walk by. On a Friday during the first of the year, they also had to wear their wigs, hats, boots, and lipstick all during the school day. The Buffalo-Down was also a liked tradition put out hy the National Honor Society and sponsored by many surrounding businesses which had bought ads. Mr. jay Thompson, who was a graduate of Haltom in 1964 stated. The most traditional event of the year seems to be the graduation of our Seniors and seeing how much they have achieved. The most liked tradition to girls was the wearing of mums during Homecoming. Decorating the foyer and halls was also a fun tradition because it's like competition between the three classes to see who can do the best job. However, the boys had a different idea of a tradition which was Richland week because of all the tension throughout the school and the football team. 'Through the years, rivalry with Richland has gotten out of hand with all the fighting and destruction of school property that our rivalry will be discouraged. Sitting in the foyer used to be only a Senior privilege, but in the past couple of years this tradition deteriorated. The foyer is not only us- ed by Seniors and juniors but is even used by Sophomores! The benches were removed in the spring of '79 because of disorderly conduct then returned in the fall of 80. During Homecoming, cars used to carry the Homecoming nominees around the field, but this was no longer allowed because of the new all-weather track which was recently installed. As for traditions Mrs. Ila Osborne com- mented, I think Haltom needs more of them and that they should be made known to the students. like the returning of the ex-students should become a bigger deal. it NEW CLASSES Spicy classes restrain Comas Aliens, hairy Critter share Common bond Dazed, glassy eyes, a droopy head and slouched shoulders, basically pictures a sleepy or uninterested person. This might convey the image ofa typical doldrum class. New courses might be the spice that would prevent the comas some students fall under in their blander classes. Science fic- tion, psychology and a new journalism I class were added subjects. Alien beings were topics studied in the science fiction class, instructed by Mrs. Mickie Peterson. Sci-Fi was offered to sen- iors as an English credit. If a student looked at a buffalo, they saw a large hairy critter resembling a bull. How- ever, that was only the exterior. juniors and seniors interested in what goes on in the interior signed up for the psychol- ogy class, instructed by Mrs. jackie Slaugh- ter. Specialized writing, reporting, advertising and graphics and layout replaced journalism I classes. Specialized writing taught students to write specific styles of stories, like news, edi- torials and feature stories. . Reporting informed students to have a nose for news and to conduct a good interview. Advertising students learned to sell, draw, lay out and paste up ads. Graphics and layout showed students how to lay out yearbook and newspaper pages. Some students had the chance for firsthand experience to lay out and write yearbook copy for the staff. What did FBLA, FTA, Student Council, French, chemistry and cheerleaders have in common? They gained new sponsors. Mrs. Judy Griggers replaced Mrs. Ila Osborne as the FBLA sponsor. Mrs, Jeannie Fisher was not even aware that there was a French Club but wanted to build it up. She replaced Mrs. Glenda Picha and Mrs. Bettye Wright as the Future Teachers of America sponsor. Chip Evans planned to build the chemistry program. He learned that even though an experiment had been done many times in a lab, the experiment didn't always work in a chemistry show. Mrs. Bettye Wright, cheerleader sponsor, returned after a five-year lapse. Mrs.jan Edwards, who helped Mrsjenni- fer Tomlinson sponsor Student Council last year, took over full reins.

Bs- AFTER GRADUATION There is life after high school College Day, TCIC Classes, ond tests ready students About 250 seniors were gathered around tables listening intently to representatives from various insitutions of higher education. The decisions the students made that day could have affected their careers and their lives. Thirty-five Texas colleges and universities were represented by public relations persons December 3 at W. G. Thomas jr. Coliseum College Day. The counselors sponsored this event. Because of scheduling problems and basketball games, College Day was changed to a morning event and Richland was not in- cluded. lt had been an evening event in the past but it was moved to periods 1, 2 and 3. The event could not have been scheduled any other week because there is only one week in which it is available to all the schools in Texas. Each college and university set up a table. Pamphlets, embroidered patches, and stickers were used to attract the students. The representatives talked to the students about such subjects as enrollment, financial aid, and the degrees offered at each school. Mrs. Libby Conant, senior counselor, was very pleased with the results. About 110 more people attended College Day than at- tended College Night. I loved it and l'll do it again next year, said Mrs. Conant. The Scholastic Aptitude Test, an optional college entrance exam, was given at Arl- ington Heights, Castleberry, Paschal, and O. D. Wyatt between November 1 andjune 6. The SAT tests taken by four Haltom students were lost in the mail but were recovered before makerup tests could be scheduled. The scores from the SAT were made available to colleges andiif they saw a very high score, often they would contact that student about attending their campus. This practice was known as recruiting. The Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test, offered this year to sophomores in addition to juniors because of low junior participa- tion, was given at W. G. Thomas, jr. Col- iseum. This test was used to determine the semi-finalists eligible for a National Merit Scholarship. Two seniors, Cary Stegall and Darrell Anderson, qualified last year. They both went on to be finalists. This means they are eligible for more scholarships than if they hadn't scored so high. Most schools in this area such as North Texas State University, the University of Texas at Arlington, Texas Women's Univer- sity and Texas Christian University spon- sored a day where they invited seniors from the area high schools to come and tour the campus. Appointments were preferred but not necessary. TCJC offered classes to all seniors, one in history and one in English. The student received only college credit for these courses not credits towards high school graduation. A record number of seniors, 41, took part in this program said Mrs. Conant.

For the second year, Professor Gustav Pertruz taught a college Freshman English class. A history class was also offered. 3 1'-si PHYSICAL CHANGES Monster progressesg walls Collapse, rebuilt Thi? Thing aiilhrngs devoursg birds, beasts, trees, flowers. It gnaws iron, bites steel, grinds hard stones to meal . . . T-tg-cien - By Becky Stanfield Coming to mind is some sort of monster perhaps huge, ugly and strong. But that isn't what the thing is, Time is the Ogre . . . Time affects more than birds and flowers. It changes everything, walls, surroundings and even eating habits. A new wall was built between room 63 where Mr. Paul Strong taught American History, and room 64, where Mrs. Becky Shirley taught World History. Mr. Strong and Mr. Flavius Strickland taught as a team in these two adjoining rooms for the past five years. They mutually agreed that dividing their room would add flexibility to their schedules by letting them teach different subjects at different times. Built during the summer, a paneled wall added a touch of originality to the other white walls of the rooms. Any disadvantages? None,l' said Mr. Strong. Mr. Strickland became assistant prin- cipal at Haltom junior High. In December, dead grass was torn from the ground to expose bare, brown dirt. Smithfield Construction Company began building a locker room. The 3701171 budget included a solar water heating system, which was put on the roof directly over the showers in the boys new junior varsity locker room. The solar panels are 4 feet wide and 24 feet long. The entire locker room is 130 feet by 47 feet. In the new locker room the company built a weight room, shower room, and lockers, also some offices for the coaches and a meeting room. The training room doubled in size by taking out the corridor between the east gym and the gymnastics gym. The old physical education dressing rooms were renovated for girls athletics with new lockers, showers and another entrance. What was once the old weight room above now houses the girls coaches. The old A team and B team shower rooms under the Bull Pen we e outfitted with new showers, lockers and walls, and were given to the Highsteppers and PE. The cafeteria wasn't forgotten. Ivy in hanging planters and white curtains now grace the interior. The covered sidewalk out- side was widened so mud wouldn't wash on- to it in wet weather and students wouldn't have to wade through standing water. Due to a ruling by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, carbonated drinks were sold only after second lunch, or 1:30. That meant only things like grape soda and lemonade came out of the machines in the mornings unless a student got to school before the machines were adjusted. Total sales were down over 50 percent, according to Mr. Leon Hagmann, principal. Other than that there were no real problems. WET PAINT The warnings were posted in halls and suspended from doorways, admonishing people to take heed. A coat of cream paint was smoothed over dark green and orange. Doorways and window trims were covered in brown. Shiny gold locks were the style for doors. At the cost of 38,000g all the doors were out- fitted with new locks. Eventually the entire district will be using the new lock system, according to Mr. Edward Logan, assistant principal. It was decided to switch over because of several reasons. The entire school structure was built in different stages and each had locks according to when they were con- structed. The Homemaking wing had locks that used skeleton keys. Also because so many keys had been lost, found and duplicated that there was no telling who had keys to the building. Mr. Hagmann had to carry three key rings, with the new locks he carried only two keys. Each teacher can open just one door, but Mr. Hagmann can open any door in the building. The keys can't be duplicated because stamped on each one is a warning that such an act is unlawful. If a key is lost, the school must order a new one from the company. After the burning of the stage last year, new curtains and part of the floor was replaced. Although the orchestra pit wasn't repaired then, carpet was put in just before the musical, Guys and Dolls, to absorb the reverberation from the orchestra. The rail in front of the pit was removed several years ago to make room for a ramp to the used in beauty pageants. The ramp burned in the fire and neither the ramp nor the rail has been replaced. an PHYSICAL CHANGES bww ' 5 , gi -was M- SX: ff ' --wififeigw 1: construction site, locker room Z: old girls locker room 5: lfnst Gym -1: gymnastics gyrn S: Tile Building 6: covered sitlcvuilk hy cafeteria 'z boys' athletics locker room lllllils ill ll -im -- Assistant principtil Iidsuirtl Lugttn coiiipurt-s skeleton keys with the one key syslctll. it ,155 tl' 3' Y gi s Q S Q Q E if . 0 1 . 1 , .

Although Reagan won the national election, Carter won the students' votes in the election that the school newspaper had. Carter received 69 of the 163 votes cast in the mock election, beating Ronald Reagan's 55 votesjohn Ander- son received 11 votes and Ed Clark received 2. joe Walsh gained 1 vote. Several people voted for themselves or a friend. R. Ewing got 4 votes and Mickey Mouse received 2. Kennedy and Gerald Fords names were mentioned in the election too. Ronald Reagan officially became the new 1981-1985 presidentjanuary 20, 1981. Election night jimmy Carter was in the shower and the phone tang. He wrapped himself in a towel and listened to the voice on the other end of the phone telling him that he had been defeated by Ronald Reagan. Tears filled his eyes. His hopes to remain in the White House were crushed. He called Ronald Reagan and made his con- cession speech before Reagan had eaten his dinner, according to the November issue of Newsweek. Mr. Pat Pruitt's classes chose candidates from both second and third period that they felt would do the best job. The second period class elected Keith Hughes as presidential candidate and vice- president Darren Hooker, on the conservative ticket. And the third period class chose liberals john McPherson as president and Darryl Anderson as vice-president. Keith felt voters should primarily be con- cerned with inflation. He felt a few ways to solve this problem was to balance the budget and cut back on federal spendings. Keith also felt that increasing the military budget would make the military stronger, and making better use of our nuclear energy for the next 50 years would bring an alternate source of energy. john supported all the methods of switching to an alternate source of energy. is Exercising the 18-year-old right to vote, Cory Hawkins votes at North Oaksjunior High.

BACK TO SEMESTERS Change to semesters The legislative change from two four-month semesters to three three-month quarters was a decision made by the Texas State Legislature in 1971. The Birdville Independent School District became a part of the quarter system in the 1972-73 school year, Lawmakers felt that a quarter system would allow students to choose their vacations at anytime of the year and that business would grow throughout the state because of this, Dr. Dale Gaskill, assistant superintendent for in- struction, said that parents and students were supposed to have been prompted to take their vacations in seasons other than summer, Thus tourism would have been spread through the year. Another objective of the quarter system was to provide a greater variety of classes and 1 9 teachers to students. Rather than two divisions in the school year, there would have been three, providing eighteen possible instead of twelve, The quarter system would also use public school buildings more efficiently since they would be filled with classes throughout the year. The legislature decided to change schools back to semesters in 1979, effective this year, There isn't a good reason Cfor the change back to semestersjf' Principal Leon Hagmann said, but concerning the quarter change in '72, There wasn't one Ca reasonj to begin with! Counselorjim Farmer checks another schedule. The main fea5On for the Change bagk to -Q, W Student Council members Kim Allen, Cindy Stegall,joan Gooding, and Sheri Drysdale spend a day register- ing freshmen. Luw brings buck division of early seventies semesters, according to Dr. Gaskill, was that the state never funded the fourth quarter for which the system was devised. Because students could not choose their vacations free- ly, the better business idea was never realized. In addition, students did not exhibit the predicted behavior of selecting different teachers and courses. The students were found to be more security-oriented and tended to keep their chosen teachers for all three quarters that were available. Also seniors graduating early were not able to enter spring college sessions. The semester system benefited many students in that when their credits were totall- ed those that had a fraction of a credit now had more under the new grading. A person with a M ofa credit now had a W, and one with M now had a complete year's credit. There were some small requirement changes, most of them in health, free enterprise, and government. Mrs. Clark prepares for many hours of registration. Semesters offer the ability of being in unison with the majority of the nation. Students from out of state found it difficult to get credit transformed from their usual semesters to the past quarter system. Most col- leges were in a semester system and it was helpful for high school students to have a similar record for crediting. It Csemestersj is better because it is what the rest of the nation is on, Mr. Hagmann said. Mr. Gaskill said that there was a statewide mood during the early seventies for schools to be innovative, so quartets prevailed. However, people were accustomed to taking their vaca- tions during the summer, and, lt is difficult to implement something that people won't ac- cept. You don't change a person's views by changing legislation. BACK TO SEMESTERS i I 1 IIIIIIIYILLE INDEPENDENT SCHIIIIL IlIS'IIlIUI' FORT WORTH, TEXAS BILLY H. SMITH.

'--...Z-'Pi LET-DOWNS Hzdlhappenedcur He lool-red lil-re o walking buffet By Sharon Pelzel Brisk chimes of the alarm clock aroused him to the thought of a new day. He rolled over and grabbed the clattering machine and slung it across the room. Guts of its insides covered the floor, but he didn't notice, because he was back to snoring. Forty-five minutes later, a hor- rible nightmare sent him hurling through the air. Catching a glimpse of the sun, he shot out of bed, but he happened to step out on the wrong side. As he stepped in the shower, the last drop of hot water hit his back, and with it came an ice blizzard. He shivered through a quick shower. After drying off, he grabbed the blow dryer. llalf of his hair was partly dry when sparks shot out from all ends of the dryer. There was no time to worry about that, so he hurried back to get dressed. Not noticing what he was doing, he put his shirt on inside out. Ile then yanked on his overalls, grabbed his books and rushed out the door. On the way to school, he saw that his fuel gauge was sitting on empty. He pulled into a gas station and put in 55 dollars worth LD: .ilf gallonsj, which happened to be his lunch money. By now he was really running late. Not watching the speed limit, he cruised himself right into a ticket. The officer claimed he was going 40 in a 20 mile-per-hour zone, but that was thought to have been exaggerated. Finally, he made it to school. As he ap- proached his locker, he realized that someone had put a lock on it. Waiting for the lock cut- ters in the office, he, being exhausted leaned against the freshly painted wall. Now he walk- ed down the hall carrying the lock cutters, shirt inside-out and a white streak of paint down his back side. After getting the lock off, he returned the cutters to the office and went to class, late. The class was told to open their books to page 37. He then realized that he had the wrong book. When he returned with the right one, page 57 looked like a piece of bread crust, no insides. As a result of this, he was told he had to pay 510.80 for a totally uninteresting history book. The bell ending first period finally rang. When he got to his locker and opened it, he was flooded with an ocean of spirals, folders and books. After getting his fingers stepped on trying to pick everything up, he took off for se- cond period. On the way, he heard a group of girls laughing and pointing at him. One of them asked him if he was trying to set a new fashion trend. He looked down at his shirt and realized what he had done. Blushing as he did so, he explained the situation to his teacher and then went to the restroom. As he was rehooking his overalls after fixing his shirt, he discovered that one ofthe straps had been dangling in the toilet and was wet. He went back to second period, miserable. By now he was getting pret- ty tired, so he dozed off during the lecture. When the bell rang ending second, nobody woke him up. Eventually, the clamor of shuffling feet and shouts from the hall woke him up. He went to homeroom, and looking out the window, noticed that it was drizzling. By the end of homeroom, it was pouring, and crashes of thunder led a person to believe the school was falling apart, He sauntered to third period and hoped nothing else would go wrong. About halfway through the period, an an- nouncement from the loud speaker explained that a car was parked in reserved cosmetology parking lot and must be moved. The car hap- pened to be his, but his teacher didnt believe him. After a second proclamation with a threat of towing it away, she let him go. His new parking place happened to be located about ii mile away from the school. As soon as he shut the door, he realized he had just created for himself another headache. His only set of keys remained in safety inside the car. lt was too late to do anything about it now, and furthermore he was standing in the middle of a fierce thunderstorm. Because of these things, he decided to go back to class and try to forget about it, for a while anyway. When he reached the school, drenched, third period was over, so he went to lunch. As he entered the lunchroom, he remembered that he had no lunch money. Dressed for the occasion in his soaked, paint- stained clothes and miserably expressioned face, he nagged his best friend into lending him 31. After getting his food, he hunted around the cafeteria trying to locate a chair. Eventually he found one and began eating. During a rambunctious conversation, he hap- pened to tip his tray, drink and all. He then looked like a walking buffet - covered with a mixture of chocolate milk, spaghetti, peas and banana pudding. He again made his presence known to the restroom, trying to clean up as much as possible. From there he went to his locker and then to fourth period. On the way he felt a drop of water on his head. The hall ceiling was leaking again. During fourth, his migraine headache developed into a medley of drums, cymbals and all. He asked everyone in the room if they had any Aspirin but had to settle for Pamperin instead. On the way to his locker after fourth, he stopped to get a coke. Ile put the money in fthey went up to 40 centsj and pushed the Coke button but was given Hi-C Lemonade instead. He went on to his locker and then to fifth period. During fifth, he was informed that the law for drinking was in the process of being chang- ed to 19 years of age. just a few days before this, he had turned 18. After an hour of solid writing, fifth period ended. The route to sixth period went all right until he sat down and remembered he had a test and a onday didn't study for it. ln the middle ofthe test, his pen ran out, and just like his luck, nobody had one that he could borrow. He turned in the test incomplete, and shortly after that, the bell rang. Remembering he had locked his keys in the car, he called someone to pick him up. On the way out, he tripped down the stairs and fell flat on his face. When he reached home, he tried to forget that that day ever existed. A let-down, speaking from experience, is an unanticipated fall from hope, Csome ex- periences are more severe than othersj. We all expect and take for granted the ease at which we as human beings function with reasonable amount of coordination. Day to day simple and monotonous routine becomes a disaster and we want to end our life iight then and there. Life is full of let-downs under the category of despair and depression. The word depres- sion has a sense of fatality in sound, but it is only a chug hole on the road to reasoning life itself. Everyone experiences let-downs and they should open their eyes to the always untimely occurances and realize the downs have just as much importance as the ups in life. Op- timistically or pessimistically it is the truth. hx Y. ..... S V SAT? - se -: f: . i i f i ,..:..:ea hgh 1, a tree t LET-DOWNS 0 f -5 S fefmvf S 4 8 i il i lu.

SAFETY Fire destro s Moffatt house Precautions display drills, rails, Classes While Mrs. Pauline Moffatt was returning from a ten-minute trip to her daughter's house a 15 MPH northerly wind swept flames over the entire roof. Fire Chief David Rainey determined the flames started by a hot pan of grease and crept into the vent over the stove. Although all was lost on November 14, Pauline and husband Pat, city manager, took a positive look at the fire. They were thank- ful all the family were safe and none of the sparks caught their neighbors' homes on fire. The faculty members gave a necessity shower to replace linens and other house- hold supplies. A collection of canned goods and other condiments were gathered by homemaking teacher, Mrs. Billye Sommer- meyer. Most all clubs donated money from their funds or took a collection for the recre- ating of a home. Over 31000 plus various household items were given to Mrs. Moffatt from the school. While waiting for the house to be rebuilt, they lived in an apartment. The Moffatts rebuilt on the same location of their resi- dence of seven years. On the other hand, at school safety pro- jects were going on throughout. The admin- istration had all teachers post rules and maps of where to go and what to do for tornados and fires. The Student Council conducted two fire drills. The members helping each had a sta- tion in the hall to check to make sure the classes left the school properly and safely. The members reported back to the main office when all was cleared. Tornado drills were not conducted. Several areas of school were interested in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation CCPRJ. Mrs. Dorothy Rains and Miss Doris Bridwell's Biology II classes took CPR from VHOE teacher Lilian Porter and student Sharon Hall. For one week the classes learned the procedures of CPR and signals of cardiac arrest. At the end of the week, the students l took a test which they had to make an 85 or better to pass. If they passed, they received cards that they had taken a Basic Life Sup- port course. VHOE also offered CPR classes during third period at school. David Queen, a certif- ied Emergency Medical Technician, taught the class to both faculty and students. Partic- ipants also took the CPR test. Mrs. jan Edwards made a 100. To make the parking lot safer, student body President, Roger Watkins, called the administration to have the glass cleaned up in the front lot. Now that this was done, he tried to get them to do something about the chugholes. Well, these never got filled. Walking by the band pit in the auditorium could be hazardous for some. A cafeteria lady, while waiting to have her picture taken, fell into the pit because she did not know it dropped off. After the incident, rails were requested but never were received. nw A A Jus l l --1 l While the American flag was still being flown for the hostages, Pauline Moffatt's, secretary, house was swept over with flames.

Subs like changing routine: By Lisa Atturio The surprise of a substitute in a class is sometimes looked upon as a holiday. The shoe is rarely put on the other foot. The students seldom think of how the substitute feels, Most ofthe substitutes commented how much they like the difference in daily routine. I like the atmosphere and the people contact. I wouldnt like to be in the same routine every day. Mrs. JoAnn Farris commented. She continued to say that she wouldnt enjoy being a teacher. The same routine every day didnt interest her. I have been substituting at Haltorn for six yearsg this is the only school that I substitute at, she said. When students were asked if they liked having substitutes, comments came up such as these: Yes, cause then you dont have to do anything - Kelly Lynch Yes, it gives you time to do all the homework you didnt do - Kay Ford Yeah! Cause you dont have to do as much work - Kevin Reeves. A 1 Mrs. Ruth Metts, ex-chemistry teacher, crochets during her conference period.

CUSTODIANS Keepin' its otless: Umfmmspaff Who was that man in the blue uniform? That man is either a custodian, janitor, or an air-conditioning man. They're always around. Well, almost always. They work every day during the summer in eight hour shifts. The head custodian, Tom Hamlin is an exception working nine hours a day. During the summer every piece of furniture in every room of the school is removed and all of the floors are stripped and waxed. After every dance, they stay after and com- pletely strip and wax the cafeteria. The fToors are in awful shape after the dances, all scuffed and just about anything else imaginable. said Mr. Hamlin. The general duties include repairing broken doors, windows, plumbing, electrical facilities and lighting switches. The new uniforms are the idea of the peo- ple down the hill CAdministration Buildingj. They thought of it and we have to pay for them out of our own salaries. custodian Ray Bain with a slight chuckle commented.

Students who got awarded the privilege of getting OCS were in for a subtle change from last year's program. The students were moved into room 51. This provided for more isolation than when the students were placed in the office area. That allowed students to visit more freely with each other, whereas now in room 51, the stu- dents were spread apart. There was also a teacher, Mrs. Betty McEntyre, who super- vised them the whole day. Students could get placed on OCS for var- ious reasons. Excessive truancy, cutting class, smoking, using or possessing alcohol, fight- ing, foul and abusive language and chronic tardiness to class were among these reasons. To top that off, a student assigned OCS could not trade it for a paddling. Is OCS an effective deterrent to bad con- duct? Wheti assistant principal Tom Watkins was asked this question, he replied, Yes, this makes the students more aware of their bad behavior, and if they're smart, they will learn to control their actions and discipline themselves better. According to statistics, he is right, Only about Z1 percent of the stu- dent body spent time in OCS and out of that percentage, only about Z0 percent were repeaters. Of these repeaters, the majority were sophomores and juniors. r. in. Q Tir K L- A sr ,,,.- . as Debbie Kirby looks on while Ilka Ortiz studies her lessons as they both serve their time in OCS.

Sclturdo Sohool, the wool-fend fun Saturday School, the class for the week- end scholar. As bad as it may sound, Satur- day School was not all that it was put down to be. Before its existence, students who missed school on a regular basis were drop- ped from school and had to forfeit their icredits for the previous semester. This garoused the teachers' concern for the welfare fof the students. The Birdville Classroom Teachers Association appointed a committee to study the problem. From this research, they came up with Saturday School and the School Board accepted it. This allowed the students who were absent more than the allotted ten days to stay in school, not lose credit, and make up their time. There was one catch however. the students did not have all of their life to make up times, they had to do it within fifteen days after the completion ofthe previous semester, Saturday School could benefit students who wanted to stay in school. The work he had missed could be made up. If the teacher did not give him an assignment, he could catch up on reading or sleep. According tojoAnn Kelley, assistant prin- cipal, about 350 students attended Saturday School. This means that almost 25 percent of the student body spent their Saturdays in school. Of these 350, 75 percent of them were repeaters, and one grade had no more representatives than another. .. ffm '- rrvmxgffgf.

The basic junior high trip consisted of the zoo and lunch, but high school field trips often came out more as an event. Almost all field trips could be labeled interesting, but the most exciting trips are those that are farthest away from home. Under this rule the best field trip possible must be the seniors' field trip to Washington, D.C. There were a few other groups that got outside of town, although not so far. jour- nalism students attended a conference in Austin, and National Honor Society mem- bers went to the Comanche Peak Nuclear Plant in Glen Rose. Although clubs usually take the majority of field trips, English classes had an impres- sive number of their own. junior and senior honors classes took a trip to The Bronze Age of China exhibit at the Kimbell Museum and the Shakespeare exhibit in Dal- las. The same classes also saw a western ver- sion of Twelfth Night presented by Casa Manana. Mrs. Mickie Peterson's class took a trip to her home to watch the videotape of A Tale of Two Cities when the school's equipment was in use.

Future Farmers took a day out in january to go to the stock show. FFA also went to the zoo, as did the Art Club. The Chemistry II class visited the Western Com any Museum. Future Business Leaders ofPAmerica took one of the most unusual trips of the year to the filming ofthe Charlie Rose Show in Dal- las. The guest was Cheryl Teigs, one of the most popular models in the country. Another group saw Gloria Swanson. A major number of the field trips involved groups that never even left school, or were working on school projects. Maybe that accounts for the days when the field trip lists were twice as long as the absentee sheet. Student Council officers found themselves out of class incessantly, and they often drag- ged many of their members with them. Stu- dent Council members worked to set up the Hard Times multi-media show, attended meetings every three weeks, and helped show our campus to the freshmen who visited orientation. The Art Club spent a large amount of time makin the stage decoration for the Chamber ofgCommerce banquet. Art Club also set up their art show in the drama room. The Highsteppers and the ROTC helped set up the Senior Citizen's Fair in the coliseum during the fall. One of the homemaking classes took a consumer survey at K-Mart on Denton Highway. Every week also had its fill of psuedo or mini-trips. These are things like the short parties or the football team during their sea- son or the aforementioned Student Council meetings. Since these usually come as a sur- prise, they could have been the most fun of all. an FIELD TRIPS f K' -iw if hui 1 .I If 5 , ,, 4 BAE: f '-X QQ ..' ' .1t , .

TEACHERS PLAY Teachers cool off at ice cream social Clubbers bring goodies for faculty by Annie Estill Why was it that some of the shortest teachers like Miriam Duell and Jeannie Fisher had the highest boxes to reach? What really got bad was when they reached up to find their secret pal present in their boxes and it was a piece of cake or something breakable. Student Council sponsored secret pals to help promote better relationships between the students and teachers. At the beginning of the year, vice- president Terri Riehl Cwho was in charge of getting this activity underwayj made a list of teachers and let the Student Council members choose the teachers they wanted. Bettye Wright said she received a record for her birthday, a carnation at Valentines, and some tea towels. Mrs. Wright replied, l think having secret pals adds a little fun to school. The gifts that were given were usually in- expensive except at Christmas or birthdays and a little more was spent. At Christmas, gymnastic teacher Roland Rangel gave his secret pal Roger Watkins Cheerleader sponsor Bettye Wright and art teacherjerriejo Wright conspire on how to sneak off with the rest of the homemade ice cream made by Student Council. two tickets to the Kenny Rogers concert. However, because of Roger's dedication, he was unable to go since a basketball game had been scheduled that evening. A luncheon was then given at the end of the year in order to reveal the secret pals. Student Council also sponsored an ice cream social in which they served ice cream to all the teachers to show their appreciation. There were 25 gallons which consisted of strawberry, vanilla, chocolate, peach, and sherberts along with cookies, brownies, and punch. Future Teachers of America, sponsored by Mrsjeanie Fisher, surprised the teachers with apples in their boxes. They also had Teacher Appreciation Day and placed cookies and cakes in the lounge during Valentines Teachers also received poems and candy in their boxes during Halloween from FTA. Future llomemakers of America gave a Continental Breakfast in which most of the teachers showed up. The breakfast consisted of chilled fruits, muffins, sausage, coffee. and Russian tea. FHA also gave heart can- dies during Valentines to the teachers. The Parent-Teacher Association took food to the teacher's workroom during Public School Week to display their appreciation. On the contrary, if a student ever needed a teacher during second lunch on Wednesdays, forget it! Most of the teachers were in their workroom preparing a feast. The teachers involved were Richard Berry, Sarah Gomez, Keith Harshbarger, Don Houck, Glenda Picha, David McGee, Marvin Reed, Billie Sommermeyer, Tom Watkins, Bettye Wright, andjerrie Wright. Some ofthe dishes prepared were lasagne by Mrs. Wright, Letterbuck and Enchiladas by Mr. Berry, and fish fried by Mr. Harsh- barger. Soup and salad, chicken fried steak, and box lunches were also served, Mrs. Gomez said, I like the special lunches because it breaks up the monotony of the day and it's interesting to see what dif- ferent teachers come up with.

Teachers beat burnout Staff foregoes day off, helpful hints in in-service training By Annie Estill The teachers didn't get all the benefits because while the students were at home sleeping. the teachers were at school work- ing. There were nine in-service days which consisted ol' workshops such as a session on sign language, techniques dealing with stress reduction and teacher burnout, and English as a Spoken Language. These workshops also helped motivate teachers and advise them in their fields. The Birdville Administration planned the in-service days and the Education Service Center helped to find the activities. There were usually speakers through the Service Center. Teachers were also allowed to receive released time, This meant that teachers were excused from school in order to attend workshops and would still receive their sala- ries lior that day. Assistant principal Ed Logan said. I am def- initely for in-service days because they can be very helpful ifthey. are properly scheduled. at ....

Soles out ticket The annual event for seniors was the gov- ernment field trip to Washington, D.C., arranged by State Representative Lanny Hall. Through the Capital, New York, Virginia and Maryland, 41 seniors and three sponsors traveled. The group left with Mrs. Thelma Hill, Mrs.jo Pennington, and Mr. Pat Pruitt on April 22 and were gone for a total of four days travel. They flew American Airlines from DFW Airport and landed at Baltimore, Md. Learning from experience, the sponsors decided to charter buses instead of hailing cabs for 41 people. This proved to be cheaper and more convenient. The trip cost 5410, which included bus transportation and meals, except lunches. To help lower the cost, the students sold candy, popcorn, and sponsored the student-faculty basketball game. Not all participants worked and sold the fund-raising projects, but those who did got the money put toward their cost only. Most major buildings were viewed. Major attractions for the group were the Capitol, National Cathedral, Arlington Cemetery and Smithsonian Museum. Only some toured the White House. The young tourists took a bus tour through New York. They went to Radio City Music Hall and saw the musical America They went shopping on Fifth Avenue. A john Sowders and Mrs. Thelma Hill return from visiting the Capitol.

The counselors register students for classes each year and if anyone misses regis- tration, they are enrolled individually. They also help students who change schools dur- ing the year.

LIBRARY ' ore than source of no els' 'I t was too much like Grand Central S tation' In 9- ? if x Studying for an upcoming test, Felicia Neyra, senior. takes advantage of the 1ibrary's quiet atmosphere. A quiet room, a room with carpet, tables. books and more books. The library is a place famous for its studious atmosphere. According to Mrs. Cindy Edwards. librarian, most people use the library as a source of novels to read in spare time. Thats not, however, all it's used for. In the library November Zjim Bradshaw spoke to the government classes on what he had done in office. After the National Honor Society Ban- quet the club members, parents and teachers retired to the library for punch and cookies and to give the parents and teachers a chance to meet each other. When the student council met about every three weeks, they used the library. The computer terminal was moved from the counselors office to the conference room in the library. It was moved because the counselors of- fice was too much like Grand Central Station. There were too many people in and out all the time and the computer math students had trouble finding time to run their pro- grams because so many people were wanting to play the games programed in the com- puter, computer math teacher jay Thomp- son said. The conference room is much more con- ducive to a learning atmosphere and learning is what you come to school for, Mr. Thompson said. W2 Mrs. Par Dyer, assistant librarian. has been working in the library for nearly 12 years, She laminates papers, types and helps to keep the records straight. Student helpers in the library assist other students by helping thetn locate books and checking out the books for them. They also check in returned books and put them on the shelves in their proper order, 'il knew Mrs. Kathy jenkins, former librarian, and I knew she was leaving, Mrs. Edwards said, so I applied for the job.

You can't take that. When schedules are being put together, the counselors seem to be just downright picky, but really they help to see that every- one will have enough Credits to graduate when the time comes. Since the semester sys- tem has been brought back. credits have to be rearranged and required classes must be worked in. Required classes now include regular Eng- lish for nir.th through eleventh grades. In the twelfth one must take some type of Iinglish- oriented class with such selections as Science Fiction, Creative Writing, Developmental Reading, novel, speech. regular Iinglish IV. or journalism. Any student heading for college should either stay with a regular English or Creative Writing, said Mrs. Kay Clark, counselor. These classes will help them more than the others. but they are still good courses to take. All sophomores are required to take World History and juniors American Ilistory to receive one credit for each class. Then 'If a student doesn't choose wisely it may be his lossf said Mrs. Clark. during the senior year one ITIUSI have a semester of government and one of Free Enterprise. As far as other graduation requirements go, two credits of both mathematics and sci- ence are needed. Physical education or a substitute such as band,jROTC, drill team, athletics, Outdoor Education, gymnastics, Weights and Exercise or Figure and Weight Control provide one and half credits needed for graduation. The remaining nine credits are left for electives. These courses are left to be chosen by the student. They range from auto mechanics to typing to a foreign language to oceanography to journalism. When choosing classes. one should keep not only college in mind but what type of career he plans to enter, Mrs. Clark stressed.

VOCATIONAL PROGRAMS Positions open or trained persons only Vocational students type, apply drywall, and teach kindergarten to assure jobs after graduation By Kim Allen With today's job market as competitive as it has ever been, a high school diploma does not guarantee a source of income. Employers look for people with experience, or at least some specializ- ed training in a particular field, Pre-Employment and Cooperative programs offer these things to students so they will be prepared to enter the realm of the working after graduation, or to determine if they want to pursue a higher educa- tion in that area of study. Pre-employment classes are scheduled for two or three hours each day, acquainting students with information related to their chosen vocation. Auto Body Repair and Auto Mechanics are both three hour classes in which students spend approximately one hour each day doing class work and the remaining time in the shops. Auto Body Repair class repaired and replaced frames, fenders, bumpers, windowpanes, and upholstery. They also practiced spraypainting the exterior of cars. Any boy that finishes this course has a job waiting in the automotive industry, claimed Mr. Charles Cauttrell, instructor. Auto Mechanics students mastered the maintenance and repair of fuel systems, electrical systems, cooling systems. brakes, and transinis- sions. They had plenty of opportunity to test their skills on cars brought in by local residents. ln addition to participating in the district con- vention, both automotive classes went on field trips and attended car shows. Students in the three hour Vocational Drafting program learned the techniques necessary to pro- duce architectural house plans and mechanical working drawings. They applied these abilities by drawing plans for kitchen cabinets in the house that was remodeled by the Construction Trades class, and planning a new darkroom and office for the journalism department. Drafting is the only white-collar profession taught here and it is useful for someone who plans to enter an architectural, engineering, or related field, stressed Mr. Ron Kuhleman, draf- ting teacher. Construction Trades teaches students about electrical wiring, plumbing, roof repair, and everything else connected with the building of a house. The construction students spent most of their time repairing and remodeling a house specifically bought for the purpose of con- tributing to their vocational experience and practice. Cosmetology, a two year program that consists of three class periods each day, prepared students to take the State Board Examination for licensing as a beautician in the state of Texas. The students learned all aspects of the trade, including haircut- ting, styling, shampoo and set, facial care, and manicuring. Experience was acquired by working with customers several days of each week. The two hour Child Care Lab class spent Mon- days and Wednesdays assisting kindergarten teachers at elementary schools in the district. In this course, students obtained an understanding of what it is like to be a kindergarten or elemen- tary school teacher, nursery school worker, or day care aide. Office Education students secured basic skills in typing, filing, using adding machines, calculators, duplicators, and transcribing machines. They also brushed up on vocabulary, grammar and spelling, business-related math. oral and written communications. and telephone technique. At the end of the course, the students possess- ed a wide range of skills useful in any sector of the business world. Cooperative Training programs consist of a one hour vocational class taught at school, and a minimum of three hours on-the-job training. The teacher acts as a consultant to the employer and provides related occupational instruction in the classroom. Vocational Health Occupation Education is offered to give students an opportunity to see if they would like to have a career in medicine or health service. The VHOE students studied first aide. anatomy and physiology, human behavior, and respiratory therapy during either third or fourth period, then in the afternoon worked in doctors' offices, hospitals, clinics, or labs. They had doc- tors, nurses, and other medical professionals come and speak about subjects such as mental health, child abuse, and drug abuse. VllOE also sponsored a blood pressure check and CPR classes in the school, visited nursing homes and childrens' hospitals and worked with the American Cancer Society, senior citizens. and mentally handicapped persons. Industrial Cooperative Training provides infor- mation in industrial trade occupations Y carpenter, machinist. printer. painter, welder, elec- trician, or mason. ICT students worked at B and F Paint and Drywall, Petersons Auto Service. Crane Electric, Don Phifer Paint and Body Shop, Roberts Trailer Manufacturing, and other local businesses. According to ICT instructor Charles Connelly, Students enroll in this class to learn a trade, earn money while still in school. or prepare themselr es for having their own businessf' Distributive Education is to train students for future careers in marketing, sales and distribution. DE students participated in individual and group projects, marketing function surveys, display projects. and sales demonstrations. They worked at jobs ranging from sales consultant at a large department store to stocker at a major grocery store. DE class went on field trips to Sears Distribution Center, Apparel Mart, World Trade Center, and DEW Airport. Vocational Office Education students increas- ed their proficiency on general office machines and received specialized training as typists. file clerks, secretaries, keypunch operators. recep- tionists, or statisticians. Most VOE students worked as general office clerks or secretarial assistants. Vocational Agriculture is designed to give technical instruction in animal sciences, plant sciences, soil science. agricultural mechanization, and farm and ranch management, Agriculture students learned how to make an intelligent choice of which farming occupation to enter for their individual satisfaction. Agricultural jobs in- cluded feed sales, landscaping, farm machinery repair, and veterinary aide. Home Economics Cooperative Education prepared students for jobs in child development. clothing and textiles, food and nutrition, home and institutional management, home furnishings, and consumer education. Arts and crafts aide, child care aide. food service employee, and physical fitness assistant were among the jobs acg quired by HECE students. l Cooperative Vocational Adjustment Education is offered to disadvantaged students who need special training in choice of career fields, how to handle job interviews, and other job related infor- mation. They worked in food, sales, and con- struction fields. All students who were in a vocational program had to turn in an application during the spring semester prior to the fall term in which they wish- ed to enter the program. Interest, attendance, conduct, and grades all determined whether or not the teacher of each course accepted the application. Although Pre-Employment programs are open to all students who meet the requirements, cooperative students had to be a junior or senior, 16 years of age or older, and have a social security card. All students must take mandatory classes in addition to the vocational course, although those in cooperative programs usually stay at school only three or four periods. Pre-Employment students receive either two or three credits per year for the course. depending on whether it is a two-hour or three-hour class. Cooperative programs grant three credits each yearg one for class work, and two for on-the-job training. These credits, along with the required classes. will allow enough credits to graduate.

The council discussed and argued over lit- tle things, such as the motto for the council. One word in the motto caused Z0 minutes of discussion. We make it happen and Make it happen were the two mottos haggled over. and the council never did resolve that question. The council threw the question of having Career Day open at early meetings, accord- ing to Parliainentarian Steve Mylius. Soon the council was faced with whether or not to schedule Career Day. The officers were not pushing the project. which made the council want to do it more. Steve said. Career Day. which has taken up to three months to plan. was accomplished in a month. The council received help from Mrs. jan lidwards' leadership class, which con- sisted mostly of student council members. Iiach student council member was assigned a speaker in a particular field. After n the student found a person from the local business world, he sent information about Career Day and friendly reminders to the speaker. Keynoting the two-session, previously three-session, clinic was jim Reeves, ex- Vocational Agriculture teacher. On April J over 60 professionals answered questions about career opportunities. Ifvaluations afterwards indicated that Career Day was a beneficial, educational experience for the students who attended, Steve said. 'lm glad we went ahead and had it. President Roger Watkins commented the next day. It was more rewarding than I thought it would be. Haltom City policeman points out that most forces require two years of college.

VALEDICTORIAN - SALUTATORIAN ayne, Laura best of bunch Keeping top grades while involved in activities By Rusty Biles We've all heard the saying. Nice guys finish last. Well, when it comes to Wayne Trimble the phrase is ultimately confusing, If there were an America's Boy Contest, Wayne would probably come in second behind Supermans son or some other super hero. As a matter of fact, Wayne was given an apple pie and a baseball at the journalism banquet for his patriotic style. Although Wayne was a nice guy, he finished first in the grade point computations and was named Valedictorian with his 4.0 average. Besides maintaining his straight A average, with 55 A-Ps. Wayne was President of the Art Club, the German Club, and the National Honor Society. He was also editor of the yearbook, head photographer, and drama club member. He was also vice-president of the youth choir, in the pup- is P CWS!

She was co-chairperson of the Student Council publicity committee and secretary ol the school newspaper. She was also a member of the National Honor Society, and as a member ol Future Business Leaders of America, Laura won district, state, and local departmental accounting awards. She was also active at St.john's Catholic Church and served on the Faith and Worship Committee.

Band concentrates on rehearsals The bands summer clinic was at the Northwood Institute at Cedar Hill. They stayed there for three days and two nights and concentrated on rehearsals and getting ready for their first performance in marching. The seemingly unbearable summer temperatures resulted in a record breaking heat wave for the season. The 53rd day of 100-degree or higher temperatures, August 14, exceeded 1954's 52-day streak, ac- cording tothe Fort Worth Star Telegram. Numerous deaths coincided with the onslaught of the temperatures. Two consecutive days in june reached 115 degrees of blistering heat. The months of the summer promised to prove the strength and en- durance of loyal. spirited and willing students at camp. Fortunately there were not reports of heat exhaustion or of heat stroke which disabled other Fort Worthians. The average high temperature in August was 102.7 degrees. Texas was almost declared a disaster area due to the continuous heat and the lack of rain. The heat was overbearing. but the participants lived and learned. The notorious summer of 1980 was one to be well-remembered by all.

It began with a murmuring chant, faintly heard among the vociferous crowd - drums, drums, - it grew louder and louder Y Drums, DRUMS, -then as the Drums laid down the first blow, the crowd erupted into a vacuum of solid spirit - students and teachers clapping rhythmically with each ear- splitting beat.

They transformed their friends into massive orange and black hulks with assorted spirit raising devices hung in a menagerie upon their bod- ies. Students were thrown into a twilight zone where the sale of spirit was a major issue. A typical day passing down the hall might have sounded something like this, Pssst. Come over here. I'll tell ya' what I'm gonna' do. This is the one and only day that I'll sell va' a beat the Rebels spirit ribbon and a Buff spirit cup for only 554.49. Don't listen to him. Come over here and I'll sell ya' all of those plus a monogrammed candle and a Burn Dixie t-shirt for only 36.69 So it was, day in and day out. By mid- November the reverberating sounds of sales pitches were phenomenal. But to the salesman it was a different story. While wandering aimlessly about the lunchroom, one day, an eager salesman spied a girl that looked feeble and helpless enough to have no choice as to whether or not to buy his product. Forcefully he sidestepped his way over to her table and asked pleas- antly if she would like to buy a buffalo can- R 52153: 0 The spirit and vitality of Haltom High are expressed in this display of Buff memorabilia, namely, a Buff hat, pins, football ribbons, and a Homecoming mum. dle that was promised to light up her life. She promptly asked him to get out of her face. In a calm enough state he went on to ask the other girls at the table if they would like to buy one, when, out of the blue, the first girl flew out of her chair and attacked him. No severe damage was incurred, but some loss of pride resulted. Needless to say, spirit selling was a hazardous job. Spirit raising through sales helped the school a great deal. The act of selling moti- vated the students to become involved in school activities. Students like Steve Mylius, Student Council parliamentarian, and Terri Riehl, Student Council vice-president, spent a great deal oftime promoting the school for Student Council. They sold items such as pompons, cups, ribbons, and bumper stick- ers, the profits of which went to support the i i l . . there was nothing quite like twirling a spirit towel, or better yet, selling the spirit towels for people to twirl. production Power Play , to buy a Christmas tree, to support Polly Moffat, secretary, when her house tragically burned, etc. In summation, there was nothing quite like twirling a spirit towel, or better yet, sell- ing the spirit towels for people to twirl.

Booster Club funded videotape machine. Booster clubs are . . an intricate part of the overall sports program, said Carroll Brents, President of the Tip-off Club. According to john Dickerson, basketball coach, this is the first year that girls' basket- ball has been supported by the club. Approx- imately 55,500 was raised by selling candles at Christmas and by selling game programs. The proceeds went to pay for the basketball banquet and to buy various pieces of equip- ment, including a tossback machine. The Buff Band Friends, headed by Mona Brown, president, earned approximately 511,500 through magazine sales, Christmas ornament sales, proceeds from concerts, and earnings from a spaghetti dinner. The money raised benefitted both the high school and junior high students by defraying the cost of private lessons, partially paying for summer camps for Drum Majors, the Flag Corps, and the Drum Corps. The funds also paid the entry fees for contests and supported the sixth grade award program. The Quarterback Club, under the direc- tion of Don Lemaster, president, raised 53,000 through the sales of keychains, sta- dium cushions, game programs, ticket fees for the spring game, and by receiving one third of the earnings of the concession stands. The proceeds were used to buy cheerleader jackets, a communications sys- tem, and to pay for the football banquet. The gymnastics booster club, though not headed by a governing body, is directed by Roland Rangel, gymnastics coach. They earned approximately S800 by selling candy. holding a flea market, charging a gate fee during contests, and having a concession stand. The funds were used to buy uniforms and hand grips. gn, Q. xx 9, f LE A. Peggy Britt, Cindy Pemberton, Steve Mylius, and Kim Brusky support Buffs at Quarterback Club sponsored community pep rally. VARSITY FOOTBALL Due and three in pre Homecoming only non-district victory by Allen Payne A new look, a new coach, and a new at- titude started off the season for the Buffs. The team started two-a-day practices in August, which were more specialty oriented. The team split up and worked on each person's particular skill, such as blocking, pass-catching, and tackling, tightend john McPherson said. New head coach jerry Sanders swtiched the offense from The Box to the wishbone, which brought new enthusiasm to the players. The new coach sparked enthusiasm that gave us the will to win and I regret this is my last year to play, center David Thomas said. The team also played in new uniforms. The helmets had a new buffalo emblem painted on the sides. The Haltom offense, equipped with a quarterback for the first time in ten years. was shut out by L. D. Bell in the first game of the season. The Trinity game brought lots of excite- ment to the players and fans. Trinity was ranked seventh in the state, but the Buffs played a thrilling and well-fought game although they lost in the end. The fans, cheerleaders, and Highsteppers showed their tremendous support of the football team by traveling back to the school after the game and awaiting the arrival of their team. The bus drove up and the football players emerg- ed into the surging crowd, which was chan- ting, We are proud of you. The final pre-season game, played against Dallas Sunset, provided the first victory for the Buffs and the small homecoming crowd. It rained during the entire game and most of the fans were gathered underneath the pressbox, leaving the two teams battling it out in the mud. In pre-season the offense had 36 first downs, 718 yards rushing. 105 yards passing, with an average of 205.8 yards a game.

VARSITY FOOTBALL Tied for fourth Bowie, Burleson only district victories by Allen Payne Coming out of pre-season the defense was rated number one in the district, and the Buffs had won their first game. At Burleson, the Buffs picked up their second straight win. However, this would be the last time they were to taste victory for five weeks. Looking at their district record of two and four, one might conclude that the Buffs did not have a good football team, but their record is misleading. Except for the games played against Sam Houston and Richland, the Buffs kept their opponents in a close game, but always ended slightly behind on the scoreboard. Playing the second of only four home games, the Buffs seemed to fall apart both offensively and defensively against Sam Houston, the team picked to win district. Sam Houston, received the opening kick-off and on the second play of the game scored a touchdown, the first of many to come. The Haltom offense never saw the end zone. Traveling to Cravens Field, the Buffs fac- ed the Arlington Colts, the team that had previously defeated Sam Houston. But the Buffs were not dismayed. They were sure of a victory and came darn close to an upset. The lead went from team to team, but Arl- ington kicked a field goal in the fourth quarter putting them in the lead until the final minutes ticked offthe clock. The Buffs returned to Cravens Field the following week and fell to the Lamar Vikings. There was no game the next Friday, so the Buffs rested up for the last two games. Although some people had given up on the football team, the team was not about to give up on themselves. The defense dominated the game against Bowie, coming up with five interceptions by Don Det- ryberry, Wayland Hawkins, jay Mitchell, Shawn Maynor, and Gene Parish. The victory over Bowie renewed everyone's hopes of a victory over Richland, undefeated in district and already district champions. But Haltom was unable to spoil their record. After football season, the football coaches of the district teams voted on the top players in each position. Making First Team All-District on offense was john McPherson in the tightend position. Runn- ingbacks Gary McCarley and Danny Howeth and Lineman David Thomas were named Second Team All-District on offense. Offensive Honorable Mention was given to lineman Roger Proffitt and Allan Boyer and tighend Bobby Gregory. Lineman jaysen Maurice was the only defensive player nam- ed First Team All-District. Defensive lineman Craig Sanderson and defensive back Don Derryberry were named Second Team All4District. Defensive Honorable mention was given to lineman Dana Stroud, linebackers Gene Parish and Wayland Hawkins, andjay Mitchell who played in the secondary. When a player received ten or more Cobras, which he got from making a good play, he became a Headhunter. Members of the headhunters were jay Mitchell, Danny Howeth, Dana Stroud, Gary McCarley, jaysen Maurice, john McPherson, Wayland Hawkins, Don Derryberry,Shawn Maynor, Gene Parish, and Craig Sanderson. is Emotions run high as the band plays and the football players and cheerleaders raise their fingers in the air after the convincing win over the Bowie Volunteers, 21-10. 01807.01 pp Safety Don Derryberry, I-TV, deflects the ball out of the reach of Bowie receiver. 5- ' E, 331 A ,f V 4 A . .. .

'sv' FOOTBALL Wishbone creates problems Victory over Richland oppeoses season by Allen Payne Most spectators and students consider junior varsity athletics as just an excuse to get out of the house on Thursday nights, but to the 40 players on the team, Thursday nights were more than just a social occasion. The squad was led by quarterback Tal Sanders and by fullback jimmy Holder, who transferred from Richland and at the com- pletion ofthe season, returned to Richland. Another junior transfer from Richland who provided outstanding defensive play was Scott McCrory, said defensive coach john Pafford. Other standouts for the junior varsity, ac- cording to Coachjay Thompson, were Keith jones, and Brent Daniels who led a tough defense, which allowed just 120 yards a game. The new offense, brought in by Coach jerry Sanders, called the wishbone, seemed to have its problems early in the season. The junior varsity was unaccustomed to the new offense with the single wing attack where the quarterback is underneath the center and an option attack is run where previously a power attack was run. But they progressed along at a steady pace culminating with a sweeping victory over our cross-creek rivals from Rebelland. This was a season of not many wins on the board but left each player and coach all the confidence of what the future has in store for us. Any ofthe games the junior var- sity lost with a few breaks they could have won. Next year and the year after they plan on making those breaks, said Coach Pafford. A lunioi-F !

With the theme Around the World in '8O, the Texas State Fair did have something to capture the in- terest of almost anyone. A turn of the head revealed another car- nival ride, game booth, or exhibit building. If hunger struck, a tasty variety Of food was available - pizza, hamburgers, German food, and even tacoritas, a unique combina- tion of tacos and burritos. Those whose interest ran to performances had mariy options to choose from: An Ara- bian horse show, the Dr. Pepper Circus, and a laser-light exhibition each delighted audiences. The Reserve Officer Training Corps, who had considered forming a drill team, observ- ed The Army and Marine drill teams display their abilities and collected ideas for future drill routines. Members of VICA, Vocational Industrial Clubs of America, simply enjoyed a day at the fair. Mr. Ron Kuhleman, drafting in- structor, coordinated the Ilaltom-Richland field-trip for CVAE, Cooperative Vocational and Academic Education, classes. The gymnastics team. under the direction of Coach Roland Rangle, participated in the Marines Physical Fitness Competition, which offered monetary prizes to the top six KCHITIS. Although the Haltom gymnasts missed the finals by one place, Coach Rangle felt that the team did excellent considering that, unlike all the finalists, they had never been in that competition before. Events tested strength and endurance. Points were determined by the number of pushups and situps that were accomplished. Seniorjames Campbell led the team, scoring 517 points of a possible 500.

Runners blaze trail Varsity places first in district by Christy Angle On, my gosh, What is this? Cross country was over a week ago. They took us all the way to first in district. When are we going to get a rest, or even a little odor eater? A week in the back of a dark closet and I'd be satisfied. I remember the day it started. I was brand new not a speck of dirt on me. Then it began, from 2:30-4:30 or even 5:00, long distance work up to five miles, repeat quarters, and 880's, weights and then hills. Oh, those hills! We know what you mean. You weren't the only pair out there, but what I remember most is regionals. 67 teams were entered. I never thought they would go as far as to qualify for state. That was the scary part. The team was so nervous on their way to Georgetown. We never even got a chance to be nervous or get out of those gym bags and stretch our laces until it was time to trudge through the grass and dirt one last time. We didn't do too bad- ly for competing in eleven meets. Though we should give the team some credit. They did run their fastest times ever individually, and as a team qualified twelfth in state. If it were up to me I would say we were the key to the team's success. After all we were the sole ofthe whole team. Coach Authur Tribble said, When you have a group of intelligent athletes that can understand what a goal is and the work it will take to reach it, you have an excellent chance of having a successful team. Sometimes it's hard to imagine why so- meone would want to run a pair of shoes, or themselves so much. Joanne Richardson said, It's not as hard as people think. It's fun when you're on a winning team and you have a good coach. Shoes are a lot like cross country teams, neither one gets much respect as far as sup- port goes. Coach Tribble said, I think the girls feel neglected a little bit, but they know they need to work hard whether they get recogni- tion or not because they're all working for scholarships. All the girls will be back next year striding towards the top three in state. Maybe then we will get a chance to view the scenery.

N fi' f 6 TFQ by Christy Angle If cross country, like most movie features these days, were rated R, the boys' team may have been too young to compete. The varsi- ty team included four sophomores: Herman Spivey,jim Pikul,johnny Ramirez, and Mike Ford. Coach jay Thompson commented, The sophomores did a very good job competing at varsity level. Gene Hensarling, the leading senior on the varsity team, guided the boys to third place in district. Hensarling himself placed third in district, which qualified him for regionals where he placed seventh. State was the next meet, but not the last. He placed sixty-first, then entered the Southwest Sectional sponsored by the Kinney Shoe Company. This meet contained runners from Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, New Mex- ico, and Colorado. Hensarling placed twelfth and was chosen Second Team All-Southwest U.S.A. While most students were just rolling into first period, the boys' cross country team made a familiar sight as they jogged in from their mornings' rugged road workout. The distance they ran each day ranged from two to eight miles. During the afternoons, the team worked on weights, conditioning and hills. Coach Thompson said, Next year I see us greatly improving. The junior high run- ners who will move up look very good. Records were not kept for every in- dividual meet. Therefore, a complete listing of scores could not be assembled. However, there are records that the ,IV team placed in the top five at every meet and the varsity placed third at district. at VOLLEYBALL A 'r . .

Sophomores get set 'Great, super, things are looking upl' With a large sophomore turn out. pre-season was important for the new volleyballers to learn basic offensive and defensive skills. All the effort seemed worthwhile as the junior varsity ended pre-season with a 5-1 record and the varsity a 5-1 record. Pre-season meant two workouts a day starting August 11, making the grueling hot summer all the worse. The practices lasted from 8 to 10 and then again from 12 to 2. Practice consisted of bump, setting, hitting, offense and defense work, and serving. Certainly one bright thing to start the pre- season was the new varsity uniforms and warm- ups. Bright orange jerseys with black numbers and collars, black shorts, and black and white socks made up the uniforms, The warm-ups were black with orange stripes down the side of the pants, The jackets were also black. with two orange stripes down the sleeves. They zipped in the front with Buffs written down the left side and Halrom across the back. The team with a surprisingly high number of 50 members, had several objectives for the season. These were clearly defined when the team was assigned by Coach Teresa Price to write a list of goals and how they planned to achieve them. Their main objectives were to develop consisten- cy, to maintain team unity, and to perfect defen- sive play. Although these goals were not accomplished completely, efforts to keep team unity, and arouse spirit were made during homeroom when the players received spirit gifts. Senior Barbara Alexander said, I think ir's neat. It let us know people were thinking about us. Coach Price was not completely satisfied with defensive play. After the ball was received off the offensive hit, the Buffs were not able to make a clean bump, set, hit, return. The varsity girls' gradual development of con- sistent hitting during the pre-season proved to be a key factor in their district win over Richland.

Their good basic skills contributed to a 7-5 record. Miss Price added that having two teams was very good for the players to get experience. Two sisters, Michelle and Melissa Henderson, from Carter Riverside, joined the squad in the middle of the season. These players, at 5'6 and 5'8 added needed height to the team. Although the jV had a 2-10 district record, there were a few good points, team play, and a very strong bench. Miss Price said, The six players that weren't playing were equally as strong as the starters. Nevertheless with all good comes some bad, which was the .IV defensive block. The Buffs used a middle-back deep defense which depended upon a strong block to be successful. Without it the teams defense was ineffectivegi jUNIOR VARSITY VOLLEYBALL 2 wins, 10 losses HHS 5, 9 Sam Houston 15 9, ll Bowie l5 15, 14 Lamar 12 14,13 Arlington 16 15, 10 Burleson 10 15, 15 Richland VOLLEYBALL Sub' shouts Coach Price as Marsha Watson i123 plays backrow for ackxe Adams 2112 -N 1 i?

Varsity bumps off Rebs 'I'm real pleased, especially ending with three strong wins.' by Christy Angle As the Buff varsity volleyball team cross- ed Fossil Creek into the land of Dixie, a feel- ing of revenge overcame the players and spectators. It was the last game of the season and one long awaited. The Rebels defeated the Buffs earlier in the season, but now was the time for the Rebs to bite the dust. With noise vibrating the gym, Steve Mylius, Kay Ford, and Tammi Shelton led Haltom fans to their never ending cheers. Buff en- thusiasm was high as they entered the third match one and one. The last match was to the wire, charged with Buff electricity, they shut off the Rebs' power for a 15-11 win. junior Trina Long said, The best thing about our season was beating Richland. Offensive play was a strong point for the team. The Buffs used a 6-2 offense throughout the season which complemented their consistently good hitting. Later in the year a 5-1 offense was introduced to the team. Coach Teresa Price said, lt will give us an advantage to be able to run both. Although defensive play was weak when power attacked, improvement grew throughout the season as a result of the win over Richland. October 17 the annual Birdville Tourna- ment was put in full swing. Area high schools congregated at Wiley G. Thomas Coliseum for an opportunity to take home a first, second, or third place trophy. To prepare for the tournament Coach Price and the team designed posters, set up the Coliseum, and arranged a team room. junior varsity members rotated shifts work- ing the concession stand, taking tickets, and keeping score. The varsity team was eliminated from the tournament after three matches. The Buffs team progress was exemplified as they walked away with second place in the Everman Tournament. Halloween brought spirit to the Buffs team when the Drama Club honored them with a costume party. The party followed their victory over Burleson in which the club members in Halloween costume cheered for the teams victory. Tina Long is becoming more sure of herself. Maria Rodella is doing great, and Joanna Hooker's height will help us a lot, Coach Price commented. This along with the players moving up will help ease the loss of three senior starters. Senior Tena Brand said, High school volleyball was fun but l am looking forward to playing college ball. All-district team members were named at the close of the season. Long was named to the first team. Christy Angle was chosen as a second team member, and Brand, Monica Knapp, and Hooker received honorable mention. nt 1.51 N, X k 1 Barbara Alexander, 313, senior, makes a clean hir against Arlington.

Highsteppers came stumbling in, hair still in curlers, dragging thier loaded down hanging bags through the hall. As the band awaited on the practice field for their 7:30 a.m. practice, they are hoping for the clouds to stay away, because on Homecoming day, the band and Highstep- pers were out practicing when it began to rain. Most of the band members then spent most of the morning cleaning up their shoes, which were covered with mud, Cheerleaders Annie Estill, Laurie Foster, Belinda Goodman, julie McBride, Cindi McMullin, Pam Rodriguez, Lisa Rolader, and Tammy Simmons spent Friday morn- ings pulling out bleachers, putting up posters, and practicing cheers and dances which were to be used for the 8:30 pep rally. TGIF After the pep rally the posters were taken out of the gym and were put up at the stadium. The newly formed Yellraisers with cap- tains Rene Keating and Peggy Britt con- tributed to the hustle and bustle by decorating the fieldhouse with crepe paper and putting up posters. As the ROTC cadets escorted the band and Highsteppers down the hill, the trainers loaded their golf cart, which was used for carrying their essential equipment -A two medical kits, stretcher, water jugs, game balls, head phones, towels, and extra foot- ball equipment. Usually the football teams went through their drills in stretching, and form running about an hour before the game commenced. The team was then instructed to break up in- to their groups to continue their agility drills then through offensive plays.

Many stu- dents recreate at the area lakes water skiing or sun bathing, Some can't get away from the city asphalt basketball courts and others like to hit the go-cart track. I like to go swimming at the lake and ride motorcycles on weekends and attend my church's youth activities, Danny Lewis said. Others enjoy winter sports such as snow skiing or ice skating. I recreate at Will Rogers Coliseum on the ice rink skating or playing hockeyfjim Zim- mer said. Among other things female students like to go shopping, knit, sew, cook, and buy make-up to enhance their looks. Whatever particular brand of recreation - anything from strenuous heavy manual labor to sipping tea under the lilac bush - recrea- tion earns its merit as a habitual necessity by giving the brain matter a lapse from day-to- day hassles and homework.

HALLOWEEN - THANKSGIVING Dracula observes volleyball game Witclies, Dracula and Frankenstein appeared Halloween night at the carnival sponsored by the Future Teachers of America Club for the children ofthe community. Game booths, set up that afternoon in the counselors' hall by FTA members, offered children a chance to win prizes by throwing darts, tossing a basketball, or jumping rope. There were also booths to bob for apples or to paint faces. Local businesses provided small toys used as prizes, money, cups and popcorn for refreshments. A country store sold cookies, cakes, jewelry, dishes and other donated items. An animal-walk with stuffed animals as prizes, a cake-walk, and cartoons shown in the cafeteria added extra entertainment. The turnout, approximately 550, proved the carnival a success. Four days previous to the carnival, Drama Club members attended the girls' volleyball game at- tired in their Halloween get-ups, which ranged from a circus clown, really junior Dawn Skelton, to Dawn Skelton, to Betsy Ross, portrayed by senior Cyndi King. When the volleyball games were over, drama students escorted team members to the cafeteria and hosted a Halloween party for them. Refreshments included a carmel-corn tomb- stone, black and orange colored cupcakes, and a ghastly green punch. Coach Teresa Price, who dressed, axe in hand, as Candice Montgomery, won the award for the most original costume. During school Halloween day, witches and warlocks roamed the halls, entering certain classrooms and bestowing chilling kisses on un- suspecting victims. All that week, students paid Student Council members 25 cents to have their friends kissed by a witch or warlock. The SC Halloween Committee initiated this activity. Thanksgiving was another of the fall holidays that different groups recognized. Future Business Leaders of America collected canned foods and turkey to give to a needy fami- ly. The food was divided up and part was given to a woman who attended Friendly Lane Baptist Church. The rest was presented to a retired employee of Haltom. For Mrs. Polly Moffatt, school secretary, and her husband, Pat, this was a difficult time. Their house burned and everything they owned was destroyed, but students and teachers anxious to join in the Thanksgiving spirit relieved some of their troubles by giving money, food, clothes and household goods to the Moffatts. The week before Thanksgiving holidays, students purchased turkeygrams for 75 cents. The turkeygrams, carrying a variety of messages, were delivered during homeroom November 26. The junior Reserve Officer Training Corps sponsored a turkey-shoot November 17-21. Three shots with a .22 caliber pellet rifle cost 75 cents. The turkey was nothing more than a target range. junior Rob Stewart won first prize and receiv- ed a real turkey. The second place winner, junior David Thornburg, and the third place winner, sophomorejames Miller, also received turkeys. Christmas, marking the end of the fall season and the beginning of a new year, was by far the most celebrated holiday. Student Council chose the Tandy Ice Rink as the site of their Christmas party. December 15. The rink was rented for the afternoon, and due to the low number of people who showed up, SC lost money on the project. FBLA members, in- vited by SC, outnumbered council members, ac- cording to junior Carrie Nobles. That same evening, newspaper and yearbook staffs attended the journalism party at Mrs. jen- nifer Tomlinsons house, later progressing to another location. At Mrs. Tomlinson's, staffers feasted on a din- ner of baked ham, green beans. yams. homemade bread, salads. After everyones appetite was sufficiently sup- pressed, the party moved to junior Kim Allen's house. RUTC sponsored a ham-shoot similar to the turkey-shoot. lfive shots cost 31. Rob Stewart, winner of the turkey-shoot, won the first prize. a ten pound ham. Senior David Key placed second and junior Sterling Jennings placed third. They won a five pound and a three pound ham. FTA members took stuffed animals to the children at Cooks Childrens Ilospital. Also, they placed apples, candies, notes and small gifts in the teachers' boxes. Tears came to the eyes of many FBLA members when, after passing out gifts of hand- cream and socks, they were joined in singing Christmas carols by residents of Ifour Seasons Nursing llome on Glenview.

Don Derryberry transferred from Cleburne. join- ing Don Sr, in his move to coach girls' basketball. Russel Starr came from Nolan to play under Coach Dickerson. and Darren Hooker left Richland because he was on had terms with the basketball coach. Sophomore jay Crane who stands 6 feet 6 in- ches filled the roll of center quite effectively. Coach john Dickerson said, He matured as the year went along and was the class post-man of the district by the end of the season. lIll,. after almost 50 years. changed its transfer rule. A student can now change schools in Texas and not be required to sit out a year before par- ticipating in varsity sports. This rule is applied within the Birdville School district also if the transfers parents sign a form stating he or she was not recruited. The Buffs were the shortest team in the district S. except for Sain Houston, and the players perceiv- ed that their speed and quickness would make up for their lack of height. but low scoring percen- tages cancelled this perception, Tournament play provided the only victories over Richland. Starr was named an All- Tournament player in the Birdville tournament in which the Buffs placed third over Richlands fifth place. The Buffs proceeded to the championship game in the TWC tournament when Hooker. who was named an All-Tournament player. swish- ed a 50 foot jump-shot as time ran out to defeat Western Hills. O. D. Wyatt won the champion- ship game and Richland came in third. Starr was also named an all-tournament player. ln the Lions Club tournatnent at the public schools gym, the Buffs played terrible according to Coach Dickerson. and lost the consolation game to place sixth. il ' e ,W ,,..

Crane all-district Dickerson suffers heart attack By Allen Payne The opening game against the Arlington Colts. the team picked to win district and the team that won district. was an intense and exciting one. At the end of regulation time and five overtimes the score was still tied. Roger Watkins committed a despera- tion foul as time ran out in the fifth over- time, and the Colts Scott Iingle sunk his first free throw clenching Arlingtons first district win. Head Coach john Dickerson suffered a heart attack early Sunday morning following this Friday night game. He eventually recovered but was ordered not to coach for the remainder of the season although he did help coach the last Richland game, The Buffs went through two overtimes with Sam Houston and after having five overtime experiences still could not manage to win. The Buffs lost their remaining 10 district games. We were not able to rebound effectively against our taller opponents, especially while on the offensive. Also, when we needed two points in the last seconds to win a game no one would take control and make the last shot, said Coach Dickerson. jay Crane was named second team all- district, sophomore of the year, and was the third leading scorer of all-district players. He averaged 10.8 points and 5.6 rebounds a game, Darren Hooker averaged 11.5 points and 6.4 rebounds a game. Russel Starr, the third leading rebounder on the team averag- ed 9.4 points and 5.2 rebounds a game. Roger Watkins and Kenneth Burch averag- ed 3 points a game with Watkins pulling down 4.5 and Burch 1,4 rebounds a game! .. .-.f rw J .

Many tend to think it's a mixture of a few reasons like boredom. Mrs. Tomlinson. plain psy- chosis. and the tnoss growing inside the light fixture. But thanks to our good luck and the fact we had two extra pages to fill in this book, you will be learning more about this disease and the glorious outcome it had upon the common yearbook members. Regular school was days over, but the yearbook people were still there hard at work on their usual overdue deadlines. lf not for the rainy days instead of sunny, the disease might have already taken its toll against one of the precious few. but even still the staff was beginning to get bored with the year- book pages. and though they didnt realize it. they were nearing the stage of that dreadful disease. It had struck earlier, in the latter part of the school year. when the rootn had affected them so that they constructed the illournahsm 'liowerf' ilihis contraption con- sisted of four stools fone upon anotherl. seven different Buffalo yearbooks. a broom.

Anyway. getting gack to the storyyjune -i started out another dreary day for those who were working so diligently. but something happened that was quite unsuspected. liven though it was early morning. that most horri- ble disease suddenly took control of one girl and set her to blabbering. Ya'll. today KVII.'s going to be coming to Ilaltom City and it's bring-your-radio-to- work day. XX'hat can we do. let's do some- thing and win SSO. She went on and on, until her bumblings had touched everyone and sent the disease into an epidemic of the whole staff. Year- book pages were left alone. as they ran around thinking of something to get KVII, to llaltom. Ya'll. get to work, screamed some lady nobody paid any attention toward. I got a great idea. a clever girl added. Soon Principal llagmann picked up the phone in his office to listen to a jabbering young girl. muttering something about KVII. and putting letters up on the marquee. Mr. llagmann. not exactly sure of what he had heard. agreed. So after gathering up some letters. they darted out the side doors towards the mar- quee. so excited they forgot a ladder. 'lhey rushed back into the building, tried to find Lou or Ray. before the KVII,-a-van passed them by. But a man in blue was nowhere in sightg so back to the journalism room they fled to grab a couple of stools. SUMMER MADNESS Disease infects room 34 i KVIL ME 7 'W-in-.1,..

This organization is based upon students with an overall B+ scholastic average and teacher's evaluation. Each year the proceeds from the Buff-lo-down, the student directory, go toward scholarships, service projects and a field trip. On their field trip, the group ventured to Commanche Peak, the site of the nuclear power plant. The group went to the Puluxi River and examined the fossilized dinosaur tracks. I like being a sponsor for the organiza- tion. The kids were good and we had good cooperation, Mrs. Delories Webb, commented. At the traditional spring initiation assembly in March, 36 juniors and seniors were formally pinned before parents, faculty and fellow students. Afterwards, the honorees and their guests were welcomed in- to NHS at a reception in the library.

MUSICAL Show sets attendance reoord 'Guys ond Dolls' revives forties Those were the fabulous forties. Those were the days when gas was 20 cents a gallon, coffee was 21 cents a pound, the movies were 55 cents and a Coca-Cola cost a nickel a bottle. The Fine Arts Department revived the for- ties january 29 and 51 by presenting the musical-comedy, Guys and Dolls. The show on Thursdaygjanuary 29, drew about S80 people. The second show record- ed an attendance of over 700. This number surpassed a record set seven years ago. HI was really pleased with the community support. It made me feel good to see that S many people show up for the show, choir director Ron Seible commented. Due to acoustical problems discovered in rehearsals. carpet was installed in the or- chestra pit to tone down the sound. The music had been drowning out the actors' dialog. The first show was videotaped so the ac- tors could see themselves. They later viewed the tape during a cast party at Mr. Gattis. The show received much attention from the residents of the area, I think part ofthe reason the show was such a success was because ofthe student if er is mwtaajsw- 1 body support, the community support, and the support of the Parent-Teacher Associa- tion, drama teacher Kay VanNorden said. When auditions began. over 150 students showed up to try out. About 100 were finally chosen for the show itself. A lighting crew of six was also chosen. This was a great show. The student en- thusiasm was super. I was sitting in the au- dience when the show began and the au- dience just came alive when the curtain opened, That made me feel great! Mrs. VanNorden exclaimed.

The girls' basketball team terminated a year long loss record of 51 straight games in the midst of pre- season. The dismal Buff legacy was put to rest when they faced Eastern Hills on their own court. Coach Don Derryberry stated, Playing in our own gym where we practice was an advantage. The resulting score of 55-33 allowed a long awaited taste of victory. Although beating Eastern Hills was a big thrill at the time, Coach Derryberry said, basic fundamentals such as dribbling, passing, and shooting, dominated pre-season practices. To build up endurance and get in shape, the girls were on a run-jog-walk program hoping to build up to 15 minutes without stopping by the beginn- ing of after-school practices, October 15. Originally starting out with 53 players, the teams were narrowed to seven on varsity and eight on jV. This was caused by players quitting or discipline with the exception of Senior Laura Alderman, who tore ligaments in her knee during a Keller scrimmage. She was out the entire season. The young varsity team consisting of sophomores Kathy Anderson, joanna Hooker. Tammi Shelton, and juniors Debbie Barnes, Carol Porter, Alicia Eckert and Christy Angle met fierce, experienced competition at both the Mes- quite Pepsi Challenge, and the North Lake Col- lege Tournaments. Nevertheless, Hooker was named to the all-tournament team at North Lake, It hurt us only having two scheduled tour- naments. We needed at least one more closer to district play, Coach Derryberry explained. Although the team lacked experience, Coach Derryberry definitely did not, as he entered Haltom with 17 previous winning seasons behind him. Having always coached boys, Coach Der- ryberry had to make a few adjustments as he took on his first girls' team. I had to learn to be more patient. I was expec- ting too much of the girls at first. I also had to adjust my coaching verbally, joked Coach Derryberry. Overall pleased with the season, Coach Der- ryberry said, Fundamentals were stressed, therefore next season we can take a new approach and work on offensive and defensive weaknesses morefn., we '- xi ff' Senior Laura Alderman receives shock treatments for her injured knee from student trainerjessica Taylor.

Defense improved throughout the season and became the better part of the JV round- ballers game. To have a strong team next year, everyone that played this year needs to play again. From the looks of the junior high players coming up, next year's season looks encouraging. ' A, JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL 1win, 11 losses HHS OPP 15. 26 Lamar 41.

A big step for the team was merging the boys and girls money making projects. and joining girls with the boys basketball team booster program.

Ill. Home Man- agement, Ilome Furnishings, Consumer Aware- ness and Home and Family l,iving. Iiach of these classes had some separate activi- ties and some group projects, The homemaking year began during june. Besides the group project. a three day nursery for the children of the adults in the homemaking class, each student took on their own individual. project. For example. one boy decided to paint his house. He priced paints. brushes, and other materials needed and reported them to his class. Many girls. Mrs. Billye Sommermeyer. homemaking teacher said, took advantage of the situation to buy some clothes and even make their own. Cooking was also popular. By preparing so many meals a week and trying out new recipes, requirements could be fulfilled. A girl. who had her own child, used the class to study a childs growth stages. food and clothing. She needed to learn how to make the mother- child relationship work. We helped. Mrs. Som- mermeyer said. The lloinernaking l. ll and lll classes' main study was the cause and prevention of birth defects. The classes worked with Iiarly Child- hood. a group of retarded children at Birdville lflementary School. They sponsored a Halloween party and an liaster egg hunt for the kids. Another activity was the visitation to a nursing home on special occasions. They went on special occasions only because with all their activities they didnt have time to go every month as they did last year. according to Mrs. Sommermeyer. lloinemakers also babysat during the monthly Parent-Teacher Association meetings. They also cooked all the food for and served the faculty at the teacher breakfast during Ifuture llomemakers Week in April. Tickets were sold for the side of beef given away at Christmas by the Industrial Cooperative Training Class. When the construction trades classes remod- eled a house. the Home Furnishing class picked out the carpet, interior colors, flooring. The Consumer Awareness Class had quite a few activities, They took field trips to grocery stores to compare prices and do a Shoppers Survey' on shopping habits. They also brought in quite a few speakers. Mrjames Turner. a loan officer at llaltom City State Bank, spoke on budget. savings and investment. Mrs. Sally Trotter, from North- east National Bank spoke on banking in general. Mr? Carroll Prier, from Eirst Texas Savings. spoke on loans and credit checks. Ile went through everything that is checked before a loan can be granted. lt was a real eye- opener. Mrs. Sommermeyer said. Mr. Ilarry Graves from the credit union also spoke on credit. Insurance policies were covered by Mr. Paul Sandstrom from Southwestern Life. Mr. Marvin Reed, biology teacher, sent the homernaking department slides of food bacteria while they were studying food safety. The Ilome and Family classes were also active. A Mary Kay cosmetic representative showed the students how to rake care oftheir skin. Alcoholism and drug abuse were discussed with Mrs. Val l.apicha from the Tarrant County Drug Abuse and Alcoholism Center. Mr. Davey Northcutt gave advice on pre-inari- tal counseling. Mr. Northcutt isa counselor at St. Pauls Presbyterian Church. Two girls from the Iidna Ciladney llome came and talked about adoption and the programs at the home. lt was mostly promotional. Mrs, Sommer- meyer said. A program on child abuse was presented by Mrs. l.ynn jackson from the Center of Human Resources. The bridal registry at Cox's was about the only field trip that the Home and Family Living classes took. Mrs. jane Edwards, a Cox's executive, answered the students' questions about picking and registering silver and china patterns. Reverend Dewaine Greene, pastor of Birdville Baptist Church, spoke on marriage fulfillment. The field trips that the Home and lfamily Liv- ing took were trips to Cloth World and the Cot- ton Shop, They learned about types of fabric and how to select them. I used to use swatches. but you really couldnt tell anything, and field trips are more fun, Mrs. Sommermeyer said. The Home Economics Cooperative Education group was for students who have a job related to home economicsjobs dealing with food service, child care. fashion merchandising and elementary teachers' aides were included. The purpose of IlIZCli is to help the students give a good inter- view. learn banking. computing taxes. and gener- ally learn how to be a better employee. The child care group went on Mondays and XX'ednesdays to the elementary schools to be teachers' aides. They spent other class time iuak- ing things they needed for their teaching days and studying child growth and development. lfuture llomemakers of America was the club for homemaking students. lf a student was in homemaking. she was automatically in lfIlA. but unless she was a paying member. she could only go on the on-campus field trips.

A computer was introduced by Student Council and pur- chased by the school which speeded up the process by eight hours. Goals were set by the council officers, some accomplished and others not. A scrap- book ofthe year's events consisting of pic- tures and articles was going to be put together and entered in a Student Council contest in Austin. It proved to be just talk. Another project, originated by Student Council President Roger Watkins, was the painting of a mural on the new water tower located off Loop 820. A bid of 312,600 was given- to the council for a painted mural detailed by Wayne Trimble. That bid was too steep for the budget. A second bid of 38,000 was given for a different mural which was still too high because the officers had figured about a 552,000 expenditure. The new and final bid was 53,400 for a flat silhoutte Buffalo with Home of the Buffs printed. Newly elected President Robb White will undertake the matter now. Question was brought up to the Student Council by Head Coachjerry Sanders, about what the school's official flag and motto 8 fivdxxvaff Gritring her teeth, proving patience is a virtue, Stu- dent Council sponsor Mrs, Edwards oversees meet- Ing. Perspiration, pleasure balance scale was? They then realized there wasn't a tradi- tional flag and motto, so they immediately took action. The student body voted between three different flags and finally came up with an official flag with the Buf- falo Bill emblem prominent. Members of Student Council were the pri- mary souce of the financial responsibility for Homecoming decorations. Groups of Stu- dent Council members went into neighbor- hoods, door to door and sold their idea of spraying house numbers on the curbs of resi- dences who wanted to contribute to the dec- orating fund. Roger thought that painting curbs was a good idea and replied, We did it because it was a good money-making project and for three hours work for only one day, S65 was easy money. Kiss a witch, Can activity during Hallow- eenj, which was an act of the Student Coun- cil had so much participation throughout the student body that it took two hours to deliver the kisses and messages. Rusty Biles, Tommi Hall, Cindi King, and David Thorn- burg were just a few of the messengers that thoroughly enjoyed this activity but the overall help numbered approximately 200 students who contributed to the preparation. The Student Council co-sponsored a workshop at the coliseum along with Rich- land's Student Council, The purpose of this workshop was to exchange ideas and become better acquainted. They have also helped many needy people and organizations outside of school. A Christmas party was given for retarded children in which a decorated tree with pres- ents under it was given to all the children. The children were then served cookies and punch for refreshments. Ninth graders planning to attend Haltom had to be registeredg so the Student Council volunteered to go to the junior Highs and help the counselors. Help was offered for the Mayfest in which they went in groups of two and were placed in whatever booth needed extra help. An estimation of 15 council members offered their services to the Vocational Health Occupations Education in checking the blood pressure of both students and teachers. A couple of members per period helped by keeping the line moving and quiet. After the month of October, fewer flat tires were seen at school - that was if park- ing in the front lot, because the Student Council called the Administration Building and requested maintenance men to clean up all the glass. The task was completed by a tractor with a large sweeper attached to the rear. Student Council sponsored secret pals to let the teachers know they were appreciated. They also had a teacher match which was located in one of the showcases by the office. Several ofthe teachers brought a baby picture and a recent picture to be displayed for the students to guess who was who? QCoach jay Thompson, who has a twin brother, was a dead give-away.j One of the biggest projects brought forth by the Student Council was Career Day. They were in charge of calling the speakers and getting everything set up. A survey was taken to find out what everybody thought about Career Day and the majority opinion was that the speakers were better than before, leaving the program all-around suc- cessful. An assembly Hard Times was a multi- media program presented by the council as an educational program which consisted of slides projected on three separate screens with contemporary music which set the mood. On the contrary, Student Council did have requirements to fulfill in order to maintain their position as representatives, A point system was devised in 1979 to make sure that everybody was participating in not only the fun, but the work too. Points were more easily obtained than in the past, because they were given for attending any school activities plus getting out of class and going to the meetings. Mrsjan Edwards, who sponsored Student Council, felt that the point system would encourage the students because the top five students having the most points would get a chance to go to the state convention. Mrs. Edwards said, I have enjoyed work- ing with all of the students and will espe- cially miss the seniors. 1fI would've had all of them in my classes, I would've tried to flunk them, so we could keep them another year.

Carnival attraction Members experience teaching firsthand Future Teachers of America members are offered various opportunities to develop their interests in the teaching profession. Club activities included the traditional teaching days at area elementary and jun- ior high schools. Members experienced first- hand what teaching is really like on the three scheduled teaching days. In addition to these days, they were left in charge of classes at Birdville Elementary while the faculty attended a luncheon. The Halloween spirit prevailed in October when members involved area children in a carnival. The kids enjoyed bobbing for apples, watching cartoons, and going to the booths. Prior to the carnival, members had sought donations of money and candy to help support the event. In February, eleven members attended the state convention in San Antonio. They entered the scrapbook competition after some anxious moments putting it together. According to Tammi Shelton, We were going to shellac the cover of the scrapbook, punch holes and write cut lines on the way. After putting it together, the paper stuck out half an inch from the cover. We went to three office supply stores before we found the right rings. When we reached the San Antonio Con- vention Center, we had five minutes to get the scrapbook to the judging room, but we couldn't find it. With a minute to spare, we made it only to find that the scrapbook had fallen apart. Member showed appreciation for teachers by putting apples and life savers in their boxes. They also placed baked goods in the teachers lounge. Each person has to be enthusiastic and make it fun or it won't be enjoyable, said President Kennilyn Poole. Other officers were Vice-President Melonie Nowell, Secre- tary Leeanne Ashley, Treasurer Terri Reihl, Parliamentarian Steve Mylius and Historian Wendy Wright.

Also during November, on a first-come, ' first-go basis, two groups of fifteen members attended the Charlie Rose Show. One group saw Cheryl Tiegsg the other Gloria Swanson. In March members attended a State Lead- fr- ership Conference in Houston at the Adams Mark Hotel. Carol Evans won a first place award in Shorthand I and Lennie LaRoux won a second place award in Accounting I. Officers were elected and announced dur- ing October. The following came out win- ners: President, Lennie LaRoux, vice-presi- dents, Diana Standley and Carol Evans, Sec- retary, julie Roederg Treasurer, Lisa Ahern, Historian, Karla Kittrellg Reporter, Steve Myliusg Photographer, Melody Boyer, and Sweetheart, Carol Evans. is 2 22 jnorc IRCDTC on probation Chopper rides over I-Ioltom City Mostly the junior Reserve Officer Training stu- dents are seen raising the flags in the mornings, shooting guns on the rifle range, or just running around the school on Tuesdays in their uniforms. But they are seldom noticed in helicopters over the school or seen making military maneuvers against each other at Eagle Mountain Lake. We went to Fort Hood, where huey transports were presented and helicopter rides from Fort Hood, over Haltom City, and back were given, Mark Hoop, lieutenant colonel, said. The students also went to Eagle Mountain Lake for Field Training Exercises. We camped out for three days, and had maneuvers, compass courses, and cross country hikes, Rod Ashmore, cadet major, said. The squad also visited the State Fair of Texas to observe the Army's Fife and Drum Corps, the Army's Drill Team, and the US Marine Corps' Silent Command Drill Team. On Armed Forces Day, the students took a trip to Fort Wolters. We had the opportunity to see a sophisticated military unit using extremely unique equipment. We also saw an airsliow of their newly designed fighters. lt was boring as heck, too, Mark said. In April, the program went through the Annual Formal Inspection. They were inspected by active military officers from Fort Riley, Kansas. They primarily inspect areas of administration, cadet knowledge, cadet proficiency, and proper maintenance of facilities. Then an in rank inspec- tion is conducted to test individual cadets on knowledge, appearance, and bearing, Sergeant Alvin Fowler,jROTC instructor, said. A parade was also held to test their capabilities in drill ceremonies, ability to follow commands and expertise in marching. Our overall rating for this year was 95.38, which was high enough that we could have been an honor unit if we had 100 cadets enrolled in the program, Sergeant Fowler stated proudly. Since they do not have 100 cadets, which is the minimum required enrollment, the program has been put on probation. If we don't enroll 100 students, then the year after next year, we will have to combine with Richland's program, said Colonel Frank Kor- ywchakm, junior Rodney Biggs takes his aim at a target on the rifle range.

They're athletic and they're generous, The Woods and Waters Club. consisting of students in Outdoor Education, is the largest with 105 members. Outdoor Ed helps convey a greater apprecia- tion ofthe outdoors and how to care for it, Mr, Ron Frank, Outdoor Ed teacher, said, In order to produce more appreciation of the outdoors, Mr, Frank invited guest speakers to the classes, Two game wardens from Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, The Fort Worth Zoo dem- onstrated an exhibition of snakes and paramedics from Richland Hills Eire Department instructed the students on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. Mr. George Ott brought sky diving equipment and talked to the students about parachuting. Ile had so much equipment in here, that it stretched all the way across the roomf' Mr. Prank said. To familiarize the students with canoes and water safety, Outdoor Ed classes took two canoe trips, one down the Brazos River and the other at Lake Bridgeport, At the Brazos, we paddled all day, sweated blood and tears, dragged our canoes through shallow waters and all they had was light beer, Roger Proffitt said, When we went to Lake Bridgeport. we mud- wrestled, chased cows, went snake hunting, rap- pelling, snorkeling, and a lot of stuff besides canoeing and fishing, Sam Nance said. They also took two camping trips at Sid Rich- ardson Ranch at Lake Bridgeport. One of the campouts was a synopsis, where students were instructed on shooting, rappelling, archery. and how to use freeze dried food. Outdoor Ed students also visited Alpine Shoot- 'fi-vi, . iw A Holly Geer and Brad Gamble practice at the Alpine Shooting Range. During the Woods and Waters camping trip, seniorjay White and Todd Parker take a rest. ing Range to try their skill in Skeet and trap shooting. A four day fishing trip was taken by Outdoor lid II students at a private lake in Ath- ens. The students made their own fishing rods for the trip. Well, me and Chris Mcliittrick were the best fishermen of the group, We sat out there all day and caught 25 bass between us, Alan Hicks said. Although the club is into the outdoors, they dominated the school in the volleyball intramurals by defeating Girls' Volleyball, FBLA, and Art Club. We won because we had superior techniques and an everlasting urge to win big, said David Thomas. ln addition to making their own fishing rods, the members took up a collection and made a custom graphite rod for a little boy who lost his mother. Along with the rod, the club bought a reel and some lures, then inscribed it- Tojeffn, junior Robb White examines a snake of the Fort Worth Zoo's in Outdoor Ed.

'QQ-,.e!s V Herd tracks down season Scoring points ut every meet, distance runners strongest point By Christy Angle Thirteen records, some dating as far back as 1969 were erased from the school record books to make room for the '80-'81 pace set- ters. Leading the way were seniors Tony Landry and Gene Hensarling, junior Teresa Nabors, and sophomores Debra Richardson, who all qualified Tarrant County Best. Lan- dry was later named State Best in the high jump topping 6 foot, 8 inches. Both the girls and boys' track teams con- sisted mostly of sophomores and juniors. Boys' track coach jay Thompson stated, With such a large group of sophomores we took things from a new start. Girls' track coach Arthur Tribble also commented, If all the sophomores and juniors return, we should have an excellent team. Distance events prevailed as the strong point for both teams, who consistantly scored points at every meet. Although district left the girls in fifth place over all, individual efforts resulted in several ribbon winners. In the 3200 meter Richardson placed third and Darla Taylor managed to get sixth. Nabors brought home first in the 800 meter run and Carrie Hart fifth. Richardson and Nabors captured se- cond and fifth consecutively. Setting a new school record of 4:26, the 1600 meter relay team made up of Carla Taylor, Angela Davidson, Hart and Nabors placed fifth. joanna Hooker took first also in the high jump. Kathy Anderson gained a third place in the shot put, and Tammy Fargo placed fifth in the discus. In the Varsity boys division, Landry plac- ed first in the high jump, and Hensarling took third in the mile. Establishing a new school record of 9:33 Hensarling also achiev- ed a third in the two mile run. Tal Sanders managed a third place in the long jump. The junior varsity boys strutted their stuff as the relay team made up of Greg Avants, Wayon Hawkins, Brent Miller and Carmen Puma finished first. The boys total team score was not enough to place in the top three. Coach Thompson expressed, The boys did a good job., TRACK -if st L., K as J Qunum.

Hours of practice pa off Constant attendance required for rehearsals Hy' Wendie Wright Although sports activities have practices during the year, there were other activities such as hand, choir, drama and drill team that practiced. When seeing one ol' the groups' perform- ances every one thinks ol' perfection as some- one once said, You cant tell a hook hv its cover. lhis sums up how most look over the time that was put into one performance. Drama was an example. When a musical production was heing produced, there were not only scene rehearsals. hut every' individ- ual had to work on their own lines. song, and dance. then work with other participants in the production. A good rehearsal is when eyervlwodvs there concentrating. working, and already' have their lines memorized and having a good time l'nless people enjoy it, it is not a useful time, Mrs. Kay' Van Norden, drama teacher, said, Rehearsals are more lun than productionsg they' are to enjoy' and to get closer and know each other hetterf' ln hand rehearsals started early' for drums and flags with camp at liast 'lexas State.

Almost every club and organization in the school sold or did something to raise money. The Art Club sold over 3700 worth of M8cM's, The money from this project went toward paying for the club's showings such as the one at Mule Alley in the Stockyards in February, according to Mrsjerrijo Wright, art club sponsor. ' ' The band also sold M5zM's in May. The only other organization to sell candy were the seniors planning to go to Washington. Instead of raising the money for one fund. they sold for themselves. By selling candy, stationery and desk ac- cessories decorated with strawberry decals, almond bars, and key chains, they could lower the price of their own tickets. The seniors also planned the senior-faculty basketball game to help needy students who couldn't seem to get enough money even though they wanted to go, according to Mrs. jo Pennington, government teacher. The game earned about 3800. Strangely enough, the more expensive candy sold by the clubs and organizations sold better than the candy sold in the school candy machines. The reason may have been selection. A new law passed-.,made it illegal to sell some candy bars, and carbonated drinks were sold after the last lunch period. Future Business Leaders of America also sold many items. Puzzies, Critter Bells, and ceramic cowboy hats with Buff Country rib- bons were sold to help the club go to their state convention in Houston, according to Mrs.-Judy Griggers, FBLA sponsor. Stuffed animals, posters, and keychains. and liaster egg decorations were sold to help junior Carol Evans, who placed first in Shorthand I at the stare convention, go to the national convention in Chicago duringjune XISOOQ' Mrs. Griggets said. The Drama Club sold jewelry that resembled stained glass to earn over S250 to use toward the Drama Club banquet at the Stage West Theater. according to Mrs. Kay VanNorden, drama teacher and club When we went to state. we had about SSISOOQ' Mrs. Griggers said. sponsor. The girls' volleyball team sold plastic tumblers. A set of six cost 35550. We sould have made about 3590, but we didn't sell them all. We only made about 34501 Miss Teresa Price said. Valentines Day brought out the cupid in the German Club and the Vocational Health Occupations Education classes. VHOE sold carnations while the German club sold Zuckergrams. The senior class as a whole made about 3400 for their fund by selling Christmas OYHHITICIIIS. Future Teachers of America were asked to sell floating candles during the holiday season. They earned about 3250, according to Mrsjean Fisher, FTA sponsor. With all their other activities, the Highsteppers somehow found the time to sell tickets to Oktoberfest where they also worked a booth. They earned about S250 with the annual Highstepper show presented in March. The purpose of the show was not to earn money but to give the audience a chance to see the drill team do something besides drills, according to Mrs. Dorothy Mixe, Ilighstepper sponsor. The choir sold cheese, cutlery, and little rock formations called Rock Concerts to make money for their spring show in April at Tarrant County junior College. They made about 31500, according to Mr. Rob Seible. choir director. The student council sponsored Kiss-A- Witch or Warlock event at Halloween. Student council also sold singing telegrams, cups, t-shirts and bumber stickers. The junior class sold spirit ribbons, glasses. pompons and bumper stickers. These itetns werent sold as much to raise money as they were sold to raise spirit, ac- cording to Mrs. jan Iidwarsd, junior sponsor. Girls' basketball and boys' basketball also took part in the fundraising activities. In order to raise money for their banquet at the Austin Patio Dude Ranch in Grapevine. the reams sold candy dishes. Yes. Mrs. Polly Moffatt was one busy ac- countant last year . .

At Sky Ranch they went to group sessions to talk about ways to improve their school lunchroomg for entertainment there was a hayride. The YACs sold cokes in a concession stand at the Birdville District elementary school track meet. They made enough money to pay back what they owed for the East Texas Convention and to pay Sheris way to the district convention june 14-16 at the Hyatt-Regency. Mrs. Conant, sponsor and senior counse- lor, put up new white curtainsg and the cafe- teria had new trays, chosen last year. The YACs got a thicker catsup and diet salad dressing on the salad bar in addition to boiled shrimp for a while. M The chemistry show gave club members an opportunity to show what they had been doing in chemistry, Mr. Chip Evans, chemistry teacher, said. The purpose ofthe club is to let students do more advanced ex- periments that they would not normally do in class. May 8 the chemistry club gave a show in the lab all day. The majority of the biology students went to see it, they seemed to really enjoy it, Mr. Evans said. Every Thursday morning about 10 people, including the six officers, met in room 55 to do demonstrations. We do things we can't do in class, like flash experiments and explosions, junior Neal Quimby, president of the Chemistry Club, said. All the Chemistry II people in the club were officers. Neal was president, Mike Willoughby and Tracy Preston shared vice- president, Pete Ullman secretary, Keith Hughes sergeant-at-arms and Monica Loudermilk treasurer. The chemistry club treasury was a jar in the back of the lab, Neal said. We had 25 cent dues but no one paid themg so we quit. The only party the chemistry club had was a Christmas party.

The Buffs shut- out Richland in the first conflict when Steve Thomas pitched a one hitter. In the second game against Richland the Buffs came from behind to win when Kevin Reeves hit a three run homer. It appeared that everyone realized we were behind and believed we should be win- ning. From that point on we dominated, Coachjohn Pafford said. ln the last district game against Arlington the Buffs came from behind again scoring three runs with one out left in the bottom of the eleventh inning. After Alton Boener knocked in the tying run, Brad Danford bat- ted in the winning run. Reeves led the team in batting with an average of .472. Danford, Marty Parker, and Steve Thomas had batting averages of 596, 315, and 501. Anderson led the team in stolen bases with 10.

Coach Roland Rangel, an L. D. Bell gym- nast and graduate of Louisiana State Universi- ty, was formerly a gymnastics coach for four years at Harwood junior High in the Hurst- Euless-Bedford School District. Carpeting, plenty of room, and used mainly for gymnastics were some reasons why the program began in one ofthe best facilities in the area with the North Gym being finished at the end oflast year. This was the first year that the gymnastics team has had accommoda- tions, although the gym was shared with the Highsteppers and occasionally the football team during bad weather. Newly purchased equipment added to the newness of the gym, A trampoline, floor exer- cise pad, uneven bars, rings, vaulting horse, and various pieces of apparatus were accumulated. Workouts began in late August and con- tinued through April, while competition rang- ed fromjanuary to April, though the team did participate in the Marine corps Physical Fitness Contest at the State Fair in October. In district competition the boys' team plac- ed second behind Richland, and the girls' team placed second behind Boswell but defeated Richland, I'm interested in building up a team and a boys and girls program in the school and in the community. l believe in people gaining by their own success. an atmosphere of fun as well as hard work, and that a person should always enjoy what hes doing. said Coach Rangelnx District 5 agp .i Q , ,ki' ' 7 'Qin fe i 2 ix 5 .

Nature decided to play a trick or two this year. A warm spell during April nearly convinced anxious outdoor enthusiasts that summer was on its way. but May brought on a series of thunder- storms. tornado watches. and flood warnings. Students from around the metroplex exclaimed lament over the weather on Six Flags' Senior night. Torrents of' rain shut down rides while lightning streaked the sky. ln the parking lot, golf'-ball sized hail wielded damage to a multitude of cars, 'liwo weeks later. a similar occurrence. minus the hail. hindered evening activities lfriday and Satur- day nights. but cleared off' by mid-morning. leav- ing clear skies in the afternoon. Nevertheless. Spring did offer some pleasant diversions. The spring break. moved from its usual slot on the calendar near liaster, gave stu- dents a week long vacation in the middle of March. Wfith the arrival of Valentines Day, two stu- dent council projects brought comedy and chal- lenge into ordinary routines. Singing telegranis were bestowed upon unsus- pecting recipients during the morning classes. .juniors Steve Mylius. Rob Vihite. and Mary lriin- ble. along with seniors Belinda Goodman, lieth Roland. Susan lforrester. 'liommi llall, Kay liord. .lerilynn VC'hite. Cyndi King, clothed in an array of red and white, paraded through the halls. stopping in classes and singing Happy Valen- tine's Day to You to those who were honored with a telegram from a friend or admirer. ln first period. girls pinned red construction hearts to their shirts and stopped speaking to all members ofthe opposite sex. Ifithey did. they had to give up their hearts. The contest was to see which boy could win the most hearts. After the end of third period. when the competition was officially over, photog- raphers Rick Meich and Keith Ilughs jointly owned enough hearts to defeat their challengers. Keith. not having enough to win alone. gave his to Rick. who was pronounced winner of' the con- test. Throughout the clay. Vocational Health Occu- pation liducation members distributed carnations to students whose names were written on orders several days earlier. Xuckergrams. the name given to suckergrams by the German Club. were also given out to stu- dents on Valentines Day. The week before liaster. French Club students sold small baskets for Z5 cents each. The baskets. containing candies. chocolate, and plastic eggs. and wrapped with colored cellophane. were put together by members of the club. According to the sponsor. Mrsnleannie Fisher. the project went over very well and the club made tjuite a bit of money on it. FTA members led by Diana McGill set up feast for teachers on Valentine's Day. 'l'he newspaper staff recognized April liools Day hy putting out an April Ifools edition of the paper. It included an article about the lakes in the halls when it rained and a story about llaltom students blowing up the water tower.

The officers each said a few open- ing words. Entertainment was a musical skit by Cary Stegall and Paul Place. Awards were then given. At the Highstepper banquet at the Hilton Hotel Deborah Finstad was presented with the Best Stepper of the Year award by Sponsor Doro- thy Mize. To prepare for the western dance-ban- quet some of the Highsteppers took dance lessons taught by Mrsulimmye Elliott. Ex-Baylor quarterback Neil Jefferies keynoted the football banquet at Diamond Oaks Country Club February 11. Seniorjerryjones won the Hus- tling Award. Seniorjohn McPherson received the outstanding offensive player award and seniorjay- sen Maurice the outstanding defensive player award. Gag gifts add just the needed humor to most banquets. Because john McPherson and Gary McCarley threw up before each game, Coachjerry Sanders presented each of them a paper bag and a bottle of Pepto-Bismol. Along the same lines at the journalism banquet at the Hayloft May 14, Adviserjennifer Tomlin- son presented gag gifts to each staffer present. Ironically, Lisa Atturio had taken the day offto lie out in the sung then that night at the banquet she F easts recall good times Friends, staffs, athletes gather received a copy of Ebony. The second Haltom-Richland Friendship Ban- quet was hosted by Richland to create a better atmosphere between the two schools the week the football teams played each other. Student Council President Roger Watkins opened the banquet with a short speech saying he thought the schools getting together was a good idea. He added that Haltom and Richland can be friends and not have all the vandalism and destruction that is released each year during football season especially. Richland's journalism department presented a slide show using slides from both schools. Vocational clubs honored students and employers at banquets.

SENIOR PROGRAM Show barely goes on By Lisa Atturio Three youths standing innocently on a hilltop, minding their own business, when all of the sudden a screaming police car roars to a screaching stop at the bottom ofthe hill. Out jump two officers ofthe law with their .38's drawn and cocked. They shout up to the youths, What are ya'll doing up there? The three replied, We are making a movie! Nobody quite knew what all was put into this tenth grade part of the program. With Wayne Trimble filming, Rusty Biles, Kenney Oat- man and Allen Payne faced the guns of two police officers while pretending to murder their principal for putting them in OCS. If they would have run, we would have fired! a police officer stated. All this because of the Senior Program. The theme was One by One, where each grade was portrayed by a skit from the years 1969- 1981. The program captured the in-going and out-going fads over these years. The emcees for the program were supposed to be Vicki Eviston and Darren Rutledge - but in concurrence with the other strange in- cidents of the show, Darren came down with a classical case of laryngitis on the day of the show. Standing in for Darren on last minute notice was Wayne Stringfellow, fascinating all by his performance. ' The ninth grade act was a reversal of roles. The setting was at Pizza Inn where Watauga, Haltom and North Oaks junior Highs exhibited their rivalry. Unexpectedly, nine male cheerleaders entered the stage with all the attire and did the cheer Party which amused the audience. I'll be double ding-donged! exclaimed Marp Hoop during the filler acts portraying an Outdoor Ed adventure. These portions of the show received the greatest applause from the audience.

IQ If H ' 2 TENNIS Courting disaster Gravel-free surface on hold By Christy Angle As the school year began, the question of new tennis courts was still up in the air. But the rumor soon went flat after school budget cutting measures were put in full swing. Even though new courts were put on hold, two hour daily workouts started as usual. For many of the players, tennis turned out to be a painful racket. Coach Audrey Mosley claimed, We suf- fered several injuries. All resulted from players sliding down from the gravel on the courts. Despite the practice court conditions, the team, led by seniors Ronnie Cope, Ann For- f rer, Kyle Knapp, Sherri May, and Carol Chapman finished fourth out of ten schools. New players making the team were sophomores Darla Profitt, Lisa Gillispie, and junior Lisa Greenfield. Profitt and Green- field were placed on the team after they beat O. D. Wyatt and won split sets over Richland. Other players contributing to the teams success were doubles division, juniors part- ners Rick Meicsh and Gary Kelly, with Kyle Knapp and Lonnie McGrew, who defeated players from Wyatt and Sam Houstonjulie Picket defeated players from Richland and Lamar. ni x' i ,Xen ' . .1 S. was r ki 'W s 3... wi?-.

Cartoons, newspaper clippings, and scenes from Star Wars, The Shining, and Saturday Night Live flashed on the screens while songs by joe Walsh, Styx, and Toto sounded from speakers on the stage, Yet, this entertaining production entitled Hard Times, which was shown during sixth period at the cost of 31 per person, had a serious message to offer - Everyone has the opportunity to choose what course their life will take. Another of the more popular assemblies was the Rick Presley show. Rick, dressed in white satin and silver sequins, performed Blue Suede Shoes, Love Me Tender, Heartbreak Hotel, and other Elvis favorites. During a pause in the music, Marty Parker, sophomore, Sterling jennings, junior, and seniors Mike Beeson and john McPherson responded to Rick's invitation for volunteers from the audience to come up on stage and help him out. While the other three were putting on costumes backstage, john, singing You Ain't Nothin' But A Hound Dog, not only stole the show, but the microphone from Rick's hand as well. Referring to his antics on stage with Rick Presley four years earlier at North Oaks,john jok- ingly explained, l had to satisfy my fans. People were expecting me to go up there and make a complete jerk of myself to carry on the tradition I set in junior high. Earlier in the year, students attended an assembly promoting school yearbook sales. Dr. Don Newbury, from Tarrant County junior Col- lege, talked about the importance of buying a yearbook, and was followed by a slide presentation. Dr. Newbury stressed the value of having a record of school activities, as well as pictures of familiar faces and events. The slide show, put together by editor Wayne Trimble, displayed the sort of pictures that would appear in the yearbook. Students filled out order forms and passed them to yearbook staff members after an explana- tion of the One-Day-Sale, a new practice at Haltom. On the second day of school, Student Council presented the sophomore orientation assembly. President Roger Watkins introduced himself, other SC officers, and Mr. Hagmann to the new sophomores. He then introduced sponsors and presidents of school clubs and organizations. These club representatives explained a little about their organization - its purpose, and the activities members participate in - and several groupsput on skits. A j - A similar assembly acquainted juniors and sophomores with the vocational and cooperative programs available. M., ,- juniors Sherri Osmon, Connie Davis, Debbie Terrett, Lynn Savalonis,janet Tucker, and Angela Miller act out a skit showing the appliances they use in cosmetology class. Mrs. Kay Clark explained how students could get six credits a year for attending three classes then working a minimum of three hours each day if they enrolled in a cooperative class. For students who wanted to pursue a specific career, two- or three-hour vocational classes were offered. After a general introduction to these programs, teachers of the individual courses spoke to the students. Mrs. Marie Crafton urged girls interested in hair-styling and personal grooming as a profes- sion to consider her cosmetology class. Several current members staged a skit using a blowdryer, comb, mirror, rollers, and curling iron to demonstrate the skills they learned. Mrs. Mary Atkins suggested child care lab or home economics cooperative education courses for those who are planning to work in daycare centers, nurseries, pre-schools, elementary schools, or at home. Four of her students displayed posters illustrating the benefits of learn- ing to cope with small children. In the spring, a representative from Balfour talked to sophomores about ordering their class rings. In addition to the cost involved, he described the different metals, stone cuts, designs, and other options available. He also explained how discounts could be won with the new prize envelopes, an idea used by Balfour to encourage ordering their rings as opposed to rings from other manufacturers. The sealed envelopes, contained in the infor- mation packets along with order forms, held coupons offering certain options free, or even an entire ring free. The only catch that annoyed the sophomores, curious to find out what they had won, was that the envelope had to be opened in the presence of a Balfour representative or the prize was not valid. Other assemblies, no matter how boring they may have been, scattered the calendar and provid- ed an escape from regular classroom activities. Mrs. Kelley and Mr. Logan gave their talks on school policy and rules at the beginning of the year in the annual segregated assemblies. In April, sophomores left their English classes to spend an hour watching the classic, but a bit gory, 'julius Caesar. Hoping to inspire students to participate in the fund-raising Walk-a-Thon, representatives from the March of Dimes showed a movie about crip- pled and handicapped children. It seemed that not a month could go by without getting out of at least one class for an assembly. Yet, when the last one of the year was over, only a few students remembered the rumors going around the year before and wondered, Weren't we supposed to have fewer assemblies this yearfni ASSEMBLIES it l .E if al i so yiwi.-in 1 3 I' 'Q- '-vt In a fit of frenzy,john McPherson, senior, grabs the microphone from professional Elvis imper- sonator Rick Presley, then informs his fans that they Ain't nothin' but a hound dog.

He chose to remodel instead of build from the ground up because of the time limitations involv ed. We just got started too late in the year to build, he explained. At first, Mr. liishop anticipated completing the project in May. but unexpected difficulties and delays raised question as to the actual completion date. For every problem we solved, we opened up a whole new can of worms. llach solution revealed new problems, commented Mr. liishop.

Also, unforseen faults in the structure of the house slowed progress. Nevertheless, construction trades students con- tinued to improve the house. and were aided by two other groups of students. Mr. Ron Kuhlemans drafting class drew up plans for the kitchen, including the design of cabinets and drawers. Home furnishings students, taught by Mrs. Sarah Gomez. decided on the color to paint the walls and carpet the previously bare floors. Before the house was put on the market, a new stove, washer and dryer, refrigerator, sink, and plumbing fixtures also had to be installed. According to Mr. Bishop, students gained iri- valuable experience from working on the house, and learned skills that will help them get good jobs after they graduate.

The local chapter was represented by james Ripple, Bobby Hill, Bart jackson, Tracy Anderson, Marc Saddlemire, Trey Blevins and joey Dorman. Six hundred and fifty FFA members from 115 schools attended the con- vention at Wiley G. Thomas Coliseum. Delegates elected area officers, a state officer, a state candidate, an area talent team and an area beauty queen to participate in the state FFA convention scheduled forjuly in Dallas. The Haltom voting delegate was Sheila Tillery. No students from Haltom ran for an area office, Building Tomorrow's Today was the theme for National FFA Week in February. During the week FFA distributed compli- mentary litter bags and bumper stickers. They set up a display in the showcase across from the main office showing that FFA included a variety of jobs and projects, such as conservation, A 9 0 ELECTIONS Votes Cost on separate doys Council positions Competition stiff The presidental election in November electing Ronald Reagan was not the only important election. Instead of nine cheerleaders, twelve were elected for next year's squad, consisting of nine juniors and three sophomores. Accor- ding to Mrs. Bettye Wright, cheerleader sponsor, the reason is that cheerleaders will be at each sport, boys as well as girls, throughout the year. The girls will be divid- ed into teams, and a certain team will be responsible for a certain game. According to Mrs. Wright, the only time the cheerleaders will be all together is at the boy's varsity games. The cheerleader elections were the second week of April. Anita Edmonds, Deedee Griggers, janet Holt, janice Kossbiel, jill johnson, Sue McDade, Melinda White and Kim William- son were the prospects for the three junior positions. After performing one group cheer and two individual cheers, Melinda, janice and Sue came out victorious. These were all junior high cheerleaders, Melinda and janice at Haltomjunior and Sue at North Oaks. The competition for the senior positions was not quite as stiff. Nancy Booth, Carol Evans, Pam Faulkner, Karla Kittrell, Amy Krupka, Cindi McMullin, Marcy Moran, Melanie Nowell, Mary Ann Richardson, Pam Rodriguez and Tara Schooler all tried out for the nine senior positions. After going 7.--IN Seniors Allen Payne and Rusty Biles and sophomore Wendie Wright were a part of sophomore Diana McGill's skit for student council secretary. Dianas' whole campaign was centered around pickles and the Vlasic theme. through the same group cheer and the same two individual cheers, Nancy. Carol, Karla. Amy, Cindi, Melanie, Mary Ann, Pam Rodriguez, and Tara came out winners. Three girls tried out for mascot, Diana Standley, Cindy Pemberton and lfelisia johnson. These three girls were allowed to do skits instead of cheers. Felisia was elected. Later in the week after the cheerleader elections, the sophomores and juniors once again went to the auditorium for the student council elections. junior David Thornburg and junior Robb White ran for president of the student body with Robb coming out on top. Steve Mylius, who served as parliamen- tarian, was elected vice-president over Carol Porter. Debbie McGee defeated sophomore Diana McGill for the office of secretary. Katrina Lewis ran unopposed for the treasurer position. Barry Wright beat Sheri Drysdale for the position of parliamentarian. Instead of using the Tarrant County voting machines, the voting was done by in- dividual computer ballots. Iiach candidate was given a number. The numbers were plac- ed beside a bubble on a card and each stu- dent stated their preference by bubbling in the number. No names were on the ballot. The computer-like cards were then run through a machine which calculated the total in just minutes. Another change in the schedule for the elections was that the elections were on dif- ferent days. This was done to keep the students from becoming restless and bored in the assembly, according to Mrs. jan Ed- wards, SC sponsor. Later on during the first of May, the elec- tions were conducted for the junior and senior class officers. These were also done with the voting machine mentioned above, according to assistant principal Mrs. joAnn Kelley, Del Pentecost was elected president for the senior class, Mark Newman vice- president, Pam Rodriguez secretary, Ray Clark treasurer, Senior representatives elected were Deb- bie Barnes, Sandi Harris, Waylon llawkins, Ifelisia johnson, Kim Kinglsley, Danny Lewis, Cindy Pemberton, Pam Rodriguez and David Thornburg. Billy Kemp was named president of the junior class. Other officers elected were Kim Williamson secretary, Kim Bruskie treasurer. The nine junior representatives, one for every 50 members of the class, elected were Cindy Agostini, Kim Bruskie, Gayle Flatt, jill johnson, janice Kossbiel, Susan Lovelady, Tammi Shelton, Cindy Stegall and Kim Williamsoni, juniors Charles Garrett, Cindy Horbolla, Stew: Singleton, and Dede Sinku watch as junior Felisia johnson, one ofthree candidates for mascot. gets tluyt n.

During marching season, there was one large band, but during spring semester, everyone was divided into three bands, con- cert hand, symphonic band and stage or jazz band. To recruit new band members, they had a concert with each ofthe feeder junior highs. Their Christmas concert was with North Oaks junior High and February 24 they had a concert with Watauga junior High. The concert with Haltomjunior was injanuary. Drum major Keith Hughes directed the symphonic band in the Fight Song, Pat- ton's Theme, Gallant Men, The Star Spangled Banner, and N0mtero at the opening of the Special Olympics for Han- dicapped Children.

The Art Club designed and made the backdrop for the Chamber of Commerce Banquet for the sixth year. The backdrop was a picturesque scene of a silhouetted cowboy on a horse with a cow running ahead of it. The Highsteppers helped serve and prepare for the banquet. The Health Occupations class sponsored the Great American Smoke-Out in Novem- ber for the American Cancer Society. They worked to educate students on the dangers of smoking and the development of cancer. Also in November the Health Occupa- tions classes offered a Cardiopulmonary Resusciration class for students and teachers. Mrs. jan Edwards scored 100 on the CPR test. The classes were taught by Emergency Medical Technologist and Haltom graduate, David Queen. Later CPR classes were offered through the biology classes. The junior class, in addition to collecting 3450 for the American Heart Association, collected 3385 for a twelve-year-old boy whose mother recently died of leukemia. The Outdoor Ed class made the boy a rod and reel and gave him a season pass to Six Flags. The Future Homemakers of America saved cancelled stamps as one service pro- ject. The stamps were redeemed by an organ- ization overseas to provide tuberculin vac- cine to those in need. For every 60 cents made available, five people could be vacci- nated.

That's probably been the biggest change. Kids then thought the thing to do was to be sloppy as possible. I mean, I like cotnfortable jeans myself. but if those kids took their jeans off. they'd stand up by themselves. reminisced Principal I.eon Ilagmann about his ten years as principal of llaltom High School. On August 1 he was to assume the position of Director of Purchasing and Busi- ness at the Ad Building. The kids now are muclt easier to talk to. In the early seventies. they couldnt accept anything. They wouldnt trust adults, and always suspected they were lying. for some reason. I guess it was a hangover from the sixties. They wouldnt accept no for an answer, no matter what the reason. In the mid-to-late sixties. we saw a gen- eral resentment of the 'Iistablishmentf which was anyone in authority. whether it was teachers. police. or parents. We saw the 'God is dead' movement and the hippies selling flowers - just any sort of rebellion. Hllowever. Vietnam was not the cause. Rebellion was the cause. Vietnam just helped to trigger this rebellion. assistant 5119-f - The man most responsible for the band's high rat- ings is Dee Tucker. He gives the members last- minute instructions just prior to a football game. principal Iid Logan added. The kids refused to be involved in school functions. If you complied with society. and the 'Establishmentf you were thought of as a 'squared Mr. Ilagrnann said. Dances never seemed to work. It hasnt been until the last few years that we even made money on dances. Of course. we've had poor turnouts since then. but it was because of bad weather or that we lost the football game. lint other than that, they've been good here recently. Crowds at all the school functions are better today. liven the teachers are beginning to come to the pep rallies and games. Ilsed to. a teacher couldnt come without having to put up with abuse from students. But now it's different. Mr. Logan also added. It all finally began to change six years ago. It began easing up, and students began having fun at school. The kids today are having fun. and that's good. because they're learning too. And I dont think drugs are as prominent today as they were in the early seventies. especially the hard drugs. lt all has tapered off recently. Mr. Ilagmann said. Another big change has been in the cur- riculum. More vocational programs have cropped up lately. lt wasnt until recently that we had courses like Calculus and Chem- istry II. Students usually had to go to Rich- land to take those courses. This wasnt fair because Haltom needed these students. though they were few. The last few years we've seen high school become secondary in the life of a student. More kids are out on their own these days and they need their jobs to support them- selves. And they are turning to the vocational programs to help them out.

F ,fig , ,Hs ,W I ,y NOSTALGIA 72 The BUFFALO Covered Bringing the buffalo bool-t to the BUFFALO By Wayne Trimble Though anyone with a basic knowledge in biology might disagree, the process of evolu- tion has taken place over the past forty years in a species called the BUFFALO. This par- ticular species has survived for four decades, providing yearly coverage of the events of a school in Northeast Tarrant County once called Birdville. Originally called the BUF- FALO RECORD from 1941-43, it has evolved from a soft-back book of fifty pages or so, to a hard-back, 9x12 inch, 288 page yearbook called the BUFFALO. Since those early days of the BUFFALO, many changes have occurred. During the i -'S+ Buffalo calves are rather easy-going and friendly. early and mid-forties, the cover designs were kept very conservative, not because they lacked creativity, but because money was scarce during that time period, due to the second World War. The same dyes were used several times to save money. After the war years, the economy returned to normal, and the BUFFALO was allowed to expand, The first cover to take a turn from the traditional image of the buffalo was the 1948 edition. Then came the 50's, and the BUFFALO began reflecting the prosperous, peaceful life of that time. They bore crests, bold lines, and flowing ribbons. However, the 1956 cover was a radical twist from the ordinary, It utilized the theater-type mode. The 1958 cover, too, was different, but it does so well in reflecting the mood and feel of the fifties. The BUFFALO of the sixties became even more radical, with flaring lines, irregular shapes - and less of the buffalo image. 1962, '65, and '66 were the only exceptions. The cover was also beginning to evolve away from the puffy-textured backs, into hard and simple textures. The seventies brought new shapes and colors. The 1975 BUFFALO was brown, the '74 BUFFALO, green, the '75, red, green, and yellow, the '76, silver, and the '79, red, gray, and white. Then the 1980 BUFFALO debuted in nearly every color imaginable. From 1966 to 1976, it is interesting to note that there wasnt a buffalo image on the cover. And there hasnt been one since - until now. This being only the second one in fifteen years, the 1981 yearbook brings the buffalo back to the BUFFALO. A -e--M+4u6v-.' .. .---..Q--wr -N 'T' M, ...J -..Y f.. Q, I K 169.

When seniors and their dates began arriv- ing at the Hyatt Regency in their formals and tuxes, everything was spectacular. l7pon entering the Grand Ballroom, table decorations of red roses and pink carnations were impressive. By 7:50 Regency salad was being served followed by Prime Rib of Beef, Aujus. Zuc- chini Squash, Rosette of Cauliflower, Cro- quette Potatoes, Banana Nut Trifle with a choice of beverage.

Allen Payne and Kenney Oatman. Rusty, Allen and Kenney were the master- minds behind the creations that everyone marveled over. The prom was okay, but the films were fantastic, Rusty said, The films were about 30 minutes and took two weeks each to make. They were paid for by money raised from the Senior Program. Both films together cost about 5350. The prom ended with dancing to Billjack Davis' sound system. Afterwards everyone went separate ways. some out to party, some hit the clubs. some decided to relive their childhood and returned to play putt-putt and then many ended up at a friend's house to eat breakfast at four in the morning. Seniors Roger Proffit and Rhonda Powell arrive early, await others to show up so that the invoca- tion might start the evening everyone dreams of. Tonya Smallwood and date dance.

The girls who were most supportive and active in a certain club were chosen as club sweethearts. During the '78-'79 school year a Stampede, a pageant, was presented for all club sweethearts. The girls obtained titles such as Stampede Sweetheart, first runner- up. and second runner-up. Since the discontinuation of the Stampede, not all of the clubs elected sweethearts. However, when asking some of the club sponsors why they didn't elect sweethearts, Audrey Mosely. coach of the tennis team, said, We talked about nominating some- one. but it was mostly just talk and nothing else was ever said. Several clubs elected sweethearts for the purpose of bringing honor to their group by representing them. Standard election procedure followed by most clubs was the submission of several girls' names followed by a majority vote on ir. one girl. The clubs and their sweethearts were: military, Medea Lures, band,jill Curry, foot- ball, Annie Estillg basketball, Trena Bockmang track, Lisa Roladerg ICT. julie McBrideg FBLA, Carol Evans, VHOIL Sharron Hall, and art, Lisa Hudson. Lisa Rolader, who was part of the girls track team for two years, said, I was so suprised and honored that I was chosen to represent the boys track team. The girls were presented with flowers and some received gifts such as a necklace bought by the football team presented to Annie. The band and football sweethearts were presented at half-time activities during foot- ball season. The Military King. who was Henry Alderson, and Queen were announc- ed at the Military Ball and the basketball. track, ICT, FBLA, VHOE, and art sweethearts were presented with flowers and announced over the speaker at school. junior Carol Evans replied.

Rules and regulations. for instance. must be acknowledged, or penalties are imminent. One legislative bill. signed by Governor Bill Clements on May 7, forced 17-year-olds with birthdays after September 1, 1981. to face the fact that they wouldn't be able to purchase liquor until they turned 19. According to Representative Ilenry Allee. the reason for the bill was to keep alcohol out of high schools. I know that on a Saturday night. they Cteenagers under 191 are going to be able to find it. But at least we can keep them from going to school drunk, stated Allee. Another nationwide ruling regulated the sale ofnon-alcoholic beverages. The ll.S. Department of Agriculture decided that cokes and other carbonated beverages. along with certain kinds of foods and candies. were detracting from the school lunch programs. To avoid this. carbonated beverages, candies. and foods that did not meet specific nutritional requirements were sold only after the last lunch period ended. Soft drink machines. equipped with only special locking devices, returned only fruit Ir's the Real Thing! xx as not available until after 1:50. Si drinks before 1:50, Cheerleaders. in charge of candy machines. stocked only items that met nutrition requirements for morning sales. The 81: percent increase in minimum wage, started January first, opened up a new line of discussion that could have burdened teenagers tnore than the raise in legal drink- ing age. President Ronald Reagan, along with Chairman of Senate Labor and Iluman Resources Committee. pushed for setting subminimum wages for teens, Supporters of the subminimum wage said it would make more jobs available for teen- agers. who had a high unemployment rate. Students argued that they do the same work as 31-year-olds and deserve the 8211116 pay. In order to prevent transfers within the district, the liirdville School District ruled that students in ninth grade must decide which high school they will attend, and sign an agreement to that effect. Once enrolled in that school. he could not participate in any Lniversity lnterscholastic League activity at another school in the district. liach of these regulations. constituted for the benefit of everyone concerned. added more unescapable restrictions to the lives of teenagers.

Each day about 8155 the voice of either Donna Moore, Beth Rowland, Cheri Green, Kmi Kingsley, Carol Porter or Tara Schooler echoed through the school, Although the Student Council met only about once a month, the appointed devo- tional committee, a division of student coun- cil, had a daily job to do. Each girl was responsible for picking her own devotional from a book, newspaper, or other source, and presenting the reading over the public address system every morning for a week before passing the honor on to another committee member. The blaring Barry Manilow songs played to introduce and conclude the devotional may have awakened some weary-eyed souls, but the traditional devotionals were announced to give the students something to think about during the day, chairpersons Donna Moore and Beth Rowland agreed. Then came homeroom. A member of the student council, usually President Roger Watkins, made the announcements concern- ing the days' events and the outcome and schedule of athletic events. The announcements gave the clubs and organizations the attention they deserved but often didn't get, Roger said. The announcements were repeated during fifth period. Also, Student Council was in charge of saying a prayer along with the announce- ments at the beginning of each home foot- ball game. But before any of this could take place, a volunteer from the junior Reserve Officers Training Corps raised the flag in front of the school. 'iThe flag was raised very quickly to show that it couldnt wait to get up there and wave, Sgt. Alvin Fowler said. Then at the end of the day the flag was lowered very slowly because it supposedly wanted to stay up and wave, according to Sgt. Fowler. The flag was then intricately folded into a series of triangles and placed in the front office for the night. A is fr fx bt is . ...k f ..s .

By Don Derryberry To most people it would seem as though going to school would be a heavy enough burden to put on one's shoulders. To some, though, it's not. These are the people who have jobs along with going to school. Some of these people work their jobs in order to make spending money. They use it for the weekends and for personal things. Other stu- dents work because it is necessary. They have to help support the family, support them- selves or sometimes support their own fam- ily. Many students have jobs in businesses that they would like to join and work full- time for some day. These people may want to start right after high school or wait and have the company help them through col- lege, or if they do not help, save the money they make and use it for a college education. Some businesses allow the student to set his own hours and work schedule according to their school activities. Other businesses allow the students to come in after school a 64 fl' i ,. s H! 4 i 2 , ' sf-ff' , .

Changes in listening REO Speedwagon, Pat Benatar, became the big successesg country and sixties music return By Cary Stegall The music llaltom students listen to prob- ably changed more than it has since the late sixties. The growth of country and western and sixties music, and the influence of new wave music were all important factors. The Urban Cowboy soundtrack was one of the first hits of the year, as people from over the country became interested in the movie and culture it came from. Songs by joe Walsh,johnny Lee, and Mickey Gil- ley all gained the charts. They were soon to Alan Gratzer, Bruce Hall, Kevin Cronin, Gary Richrath, and Neal Doughty - REO Speedwagon v finally became big names with Hi lnfideliryf' MUSIC be followed by Dolly Parton's 9 to 5 from the movie ofthe same name. Queens Another One Bites the Dust became a type of school yell song much like We Will Rock You had done several years ago. The constant airplay given to the single even spawned its own parody, Another One Rides the Bus. Devo, a band that a few years ago was laughed at, had one of the biggest hits of the year with Whip It. This song began to impress some people that there was some new wave music they liked. Blondie only increased this belief with their Latin-influ- enced Tide Is High and new wavefdisco mix Rapture New albums by Rush, the Who, Cheap Trick, and other stalwarts became hits, while groups like the Cars, were not as well received. Bruce Springsteen made his awaited reappearance with The River . Styx's Paradise Theater brought out The Best of Times, which eventually became the class song. Probably the biggest successes of the year were REO Speedwagon and Pat Benatar. Both had several hits on the charts, in the case of REO. several at once. REO had been together ten years and had always done very well on the concert circuit. but High Infi- delity became their first chart-busting album. New releases by Tom Petty, ACXDC, Van llalen, and ,journey closed out the year for rock fans. The second week of December opened the next chapter in the life of the Beatles. as john Lennon was murdered in front of his New York home. Lennon had just released his first album in five years. Double lfan- tasyf' with his wife, Yoko Ono. A shocked group of fans soon began buying copies of all Lennon and Beatle albums, and soon all of the popular music of the sixties was receiving more airplay than it had in ten years. George Harrisons new album had a mem- orial to Lennon entitled All Those Years Ago, It featured Ringo Starr on drums and Paul McCartney on back-up vocals. Yoko Ono was to release an album based on the killing, according to rumors. McCartney's earlier efforts in the year included his solo album, which had simulta- neous hits with the solo and live versions of Coming Up. lle was one of the many peo- ple who invested his time in the LNICEIT concerts with the Who, Queen, the Clash. the Pretenders, and Tan Dury. Reunion Arena became the major audito- rium for concerts in the metroplex, replacing Tarrant County Convention Center. The only major group to play TCCC was Rush, and that was only after they had sold out Reun- ion Arena. ZW made a major change to album rock and brought the name Eagle 97 out of the unlikely call letters of KEGL. 1 Most of the popular groups in the pop field continued into this year. Billy joel was very successful. and groups like the Pointer Sisters, the Babys and several soloists were on the charts. Barbra Streisand did very well on her album combined with Barry Gibb. Kim Carnes' hit, Bette Davis Eyes was the highest single on the charts as the year closed. Paul McCartney, a fixture in rock music for fifteen years, released his second solo album in 1980. it X X S A...

Rushing to the phones during passing periods and lunch, students called home for early dismissals or to check on friends that were not at school. The Office provided a phone for calls up to three min- utes, but the line was usually too long or students wanted to talk longer than three minutes. So stu- dents took advantage of the pay phones outside the office. The price to use the pay phones rose from 206 to 256. Students enjoyed relaxing in their spare time on the couches outside the library. The couches provided a comfortable place to rest and also get some sun rays. ' Inside the library offered a place where stu- dents could study in a quiet atmosphere. Studying for tests or reading one of the many magazines the library has to offer. students felt at home there. Teachers also used the library in their spare time to read the paper or grade papers. The foyer has always been a place to spend spare time, the foyer benches remained intact all year long. Principal l,eon Ilagmann found no need to remove them. Students could be found in the foyer any time of the day, During second and third periods the cafeteria did almost much business as it did during lunch. Many students caught the munchies before lunch and found the cafeteria could fill their needs.

After school activities were a facet of stu- dent life that couldn't be ignored. Athletic practices, both physically and mentally stressing, took up plenty of the ath- lete's time. During football season, practices from 3:30 until 6 p.m. werent unusual. The only days off were the tension filled game days, Thursdays for the junior varsity, Friday for the varsity. During basketball season finding an open gym was a problem, accord- ing to Coach Don Derryberry. We like to practice in the coliseum, but it wasn't always available, Coach Derryberry said. When the teams wanted to practice in the Coliseum, the girls' varsity and junior var- sity practiced until about 5 p.m. when they handed the gym over to the boys' teams for practice until about 7 p.m. The baseball team also worked out after school. Their practices were over by dark since the fields were not lighted. Intramural volleyball resurged. Clubs and organizations were asked to organize inter- ested students into teams. At the beginning of the intramural season almost all the teams In her work as a sales clerk at Montgomery Ward's, junior Brenda Kirkpatrick makes a sale to Lisa Boyer. were showing up for the games, but after about two weeks, the attendance began to dwindle, according to senior Cary Stegall, Student Council chairperson. It continued to dwindle until only the Woods and Waters team and the Future Business Leaders of America team were left. During the entire tournament, the two teams went neck and neck, but Woods and Waters eventually came out on top but not without a good fight, according to Mrs. judy Griggers, FBLA sponsor. In order to keep the school-wide teams spir- ited, the cheerleaders put in many hours after school. They even had to put in overtime once. Tommi Hall, mascot, explained: We spent about five extra hours making special posters for the Haltom-Richland game. We hung them in the halls and went home for the night. When we came back to school the next day, all the posters had been ripped up so bad they couldnt be used. So it was back to the foyer all morning to get them ready for the afternoon pep rally. Ah, but it wasn't all athletic related. The IMAGE, a student publication published bi- monthly, related school news and events to the student body. But the paper didn't lay itself out. Before the paper could be sent to the printer, the staff had to paste-up the paper. The hectic paste-ups sometimes lasted gf, I ,it 415.81 fkhy f f tt' until 1 p.m. But the staff always seemed to make it to school the next day to pass out the finished product. About the only physical change that took place after hours occurred when the night bell was switched on the phone. In order to answer the phone after the front office closed, ffl had to be pushed. This became annoying to someone who didn't know the secret of answering the phone because if the phone was answered before the ffl was pushed, the caller was disconnected. But for those who worked, or simply wer- en't involved in any extra-curricular activi- ties, there were still plenty ofthings to do. I go home and watch TV or talk to my boyfriend on the phone, sophomore jill Herod said. I go to the training room, then later on I'll go swimming at the lake or a pool some- where, sophomore trainer jessica Taylor said. I don't do anything after school except go to work, junior Byron West said. We like to go home and lay out or go riding around, sophomores Laura Null and Deedee McDade said. I go home and sit, senior james Camp- bell said. I go home every day, get down on my knees and thank God that I'm a senior, sen- ior Darryl Curtis said. in AFTER HOURS iq it Senior Carol Sanderson and junior Cindy Pemberton help senior cheerleader Tammi Simmons remake posters that were vandalized during Haltom-Richland Week.

There were many improvements to the school as walls were painted beige, a new school gym was built, and a shower room was constructed. These improvements led to positive attitudes from both students and faculty. When the controversy over Watauga jun- ior High arose in january, Haltom morale took a plunge. Parents of these students were worried as to whether Haltom would live up their standards. After touring Haltom, Mrs. JoAnn Wellborn, a Watauga mother and first vice-president of WJH PTA, was greatly impressed. One activity that boosted Haltom's ,N Cuddling two panda bears, junior Tina Bates dresses up for kiddie day. morale to an even higher level was when the Vocational Health Occupation Education members sold carnations for 31 a piece.

Inside, games bleeped and dinged as pool balls clacked on green tables. Onlookers leaned against the walls watching the action or lack of it. Around the side of the building, two boys wrestled in the mud while three girls sat on the back ofa pickup. All this took place right at the Buffalo Den arcade next door to Bill's Billiards. A common meeting place on Friday and Satur- day nights, the Den also gave students an opportunity to play Asteroids or shoot a game of pool during lunch or after school. The Buffalo Den was just one of the places around Haltom City that brings to mind an assortment of memories. On Grapevine Highway, the jack-in-the Box parking lot provided a place for stu- dents to sit on cars, talk to friends, and find out where any parties were. On school days, The jack took care of hungry carloads at noon. When the weather was warm enough, the Belknap Drive-ln entertained movie-goers with features including The Fog, Bustin' Loose, and Friday the 15th, il. Malibu Speedway, on 820 behind Putt- Putt. drew Haltom as well as Richland crowds. Malibu offered row after row ofpin- ball machines. several skee-ball alleys and electronic games. and siyed-down racecars to amuse patrons. Anyone with a car will never forget Den- ton llighway with its roadblocks, surveyors flags. and construction crews. The process of widening the road from loop 820 to Belknap slowed progress of traffic each day for oyer three months. Places around the school - the foyer. back parking lot, auditorium, and front steps - hold memories for the students who spent time there. The foyer shuddered with the stomping of hundreds of feet during the impromptu pep rally before the Richland game. but usually just echoed the conversations of bench-sit- ters before school. after lunch, and during free periods. Except. of course. when senior rings, caps and gowns, graduation invita- tions, or personalized sunglasses were being ,yawn l d vig-dI'lCSd0'YKi:' Thursday. 5 ty The heart of the school, the foyer, attracts Susan Rester,joy Kirchdorfer, Mona Shaw and Lisa Taylor.

Students sat around talking to friends in their spare time. The auditorium withstood numerous pro- grams and assemblies throughout the year. including the riotous Rick Presley show. and the popular I lard Times presentation. On warm weekends. the lake attracted stu- dents who wanted to get away from it all. Twin Points or Barnes Park on Eagle Moun- tain Lake, Grapevine Lake, or Marshall Creek: it didn't matter, as long as there was a place to have fun and not be bothered by parents or police. The Leyiesf' behind the auto pound on Northside Drive turned out to be another place to remember. The dirt bike and dune buggy tracks served as a meeting and patty- ing location on several occasions, even though the parties were often broken up by police. Each of these places meant something dif- ferent to each person who went there. but everyone had their favorite places to remember.

It's not that I didnt want to gog it's just that after working four hours under the sun, I wasnt sure whether I wanted to even stand up or not.

As I was walking out the door, I realized I had better Check my money, I still hadnt gotten my check for this week.

We just had a lot of fun together. and neither one of us wanted to date anyone else right now. I hoped. XXr'hen I pulled into the driveway. I was glad that I had my mom's car. it rnakes you feel a little more important, es ecially in a ritzy neighborhood like this. Clfc. why do people have to water their lawns all the time! Oh well, I got through, slightly wetter than when I started. Doorbell on the left, strange place for it, on the wall instead of the door frame. Kath opened the door and I came in so we could decide what we were going to do. IIer mother offered us Cokes - sure - and we got a paper to look at the movies. Iixca- libur was too far away, and we would be too late to see the new Richard Pryor show. We decided to go to the mall since there were a couple ofgood shows there. The drive over was nice. Kath talked about her new job. she was working at a bank. And it wasnt even the one her father worked at. Then there was the crazy driver. probably drank too much. who tried to move over three lanes in about three sec- onds. We did make it to the mall though. I parked right beside the trash dumpster, how FUIIIIIIIIIC. The Ifour Seasons started in a few min- utes. and my best friend had told me it was good. so thats what we saw, It was a good show. You have to be careful what sort of movie you see on a date. A lot of the movies out I would enjoy with friends and she would enjoy with her friends. but together theyre just embarrassing. We walked into the movie next door. something about a So foot alligator that decides he would rather visit New Yorks hot spots. killing plenty of the populace on the way, than stay in the sewers where he has grown to such silly proportions, Real trash. It was funnier than the other movie. because it was supposed to be serious. On the way home we stopped at Iienni- ganss We got a drink. I played some Gorp, and we talked to some friends - a lot of friends in fact. Even our waitress was a friend. I think we both decided we would rather leave than have to listen to another interesting conversation. On the way back to her house, I finally got smart and remembered that this car had a moon-roof. The breeze from that thing felt wonderful. considering how muggy it was everywhere. Vile spent a few minutes in front of her house. lvou know. that moon-roof comes in handy l. Anyway. I took her to the door and came back home. I was really glad I had said yes to her earlier in the evening, it had been a good night. It's obvious what I go through the trouble for. I'm selfish. My friend. a regular fount of knowledge, had said that you dont have to like someone to love them, but I am glad that I dont have that problem. The moon-roof was a great help on this date. I'lI have to ask my mom for this car more often. .-s5-7-,.,,r,-yy-,y -. 4 ..,a.x., , ,.

The Herffjones Company sold the invita- tions in the foyer in October for Bla each. They also sold senior memory books, neck- laces with the insignia, key chains, thank-you notes, and invitation holders. The invitation, bearing the sketched buff on the inside, were chosen by the senior executive committee and then the senior class. As for the caps and gowns the Collegiate Company sold them also in the foyer but in February for 351450. An additional 81.50 bought an extra tassel. My cap's too big, and it falls off, senior Danny - Nance stated. Other complaints about the caps and gowns were that the gown was too long or sagged, or the hat was too small. Although the caps and gowns were black, because of the senior class's vote, the senior executive had wanted other colors, This is the first time that we've even considered any color other than black since l've been here, Mrs. JoAnn Kelley, assistant principal explained.

After the last senior filed in, the choir sang a hymn, followed by the invocation led by Kathy Gunnels, and still another hymn, Then Mr. Campbell presented his speech on majoring in subjects in college and life, which lasted about fifteen minutes. Another hymn was sungg then the benediction, fol- lowed by the recessional given by Darrell Andersen. The Recognition Assembly began with the usual processional of seniors pacing to 'Pomp and Circumstance. The ROTC cadets delivered the presentation of colors, and Beth Ingraham led in the singing of the The Spangled Banner. Following the invocation and welcome led by Ronnie Rhine, the special recognition and awards were presented by representatives and Mr. Leon Hagmann, principal. Next was the turning of the rings in which the seniors turned their rings facing outward, signifying their venturing into the world. Beth then sang the senior song, The Best of Times, and Barbara Alexander gave the benediction. The assembly ended with the recessional of seniors, who then gathered for refreshments provided by PTA members. The class of '81 will be remembered as ending Principal Leon Hagmanns 10 years well behaved and cooperative at graduation. There were no mice or fireworks disrupting the service. School board members compli- mented assistant principal Mrsjo Ann Kel- ley on the behavior of the seniors. Salutatorian Laura Greenfield stated the importance of being an American in her speech, followed by Valedictorian Wayne Trimble's Mirror, Mirror on the Wall speech. Wayne also acknowledged apprecia- tion for Mr. Hagmann as principal and friend. The audience responded with a stand- ing ovation.

Without people, it couldn't survive. But survive it did. Even though Stu- dent numbers were down, the spirit behind them was up. And low num- bers had good effects on the students so that the student-to-teacher ratio was low. This gave the students all the needed instruction scholastically, and lightened the burden and work- load of the teachers. It shortened lunch lines, made library books more available, and the halls and parking lots less crowded. And there werent so many nameless faces that hadn't been met or even seen before. So, it had its advantages for both the stu- dents and the faculty. Seniors je-anna Hamilton and Yvonne Ott appear quite contented in the classroom. The teachers, on the whole, made the classroom atmosphere enloya- ble, as well as a learning experience. Sophomores Karen Roeder and Regina Kinniard make the Burleson pep rally a spirited one. 1 Q.: ra. , Q wg. ' t N , .4 , X 'L -. ...i ' Q 1 , . gt c ,J-.. . fi? ' : 4 mmm ive r .'

Seniors show new spirit Most seniors never have the opportunity to serve as officer on any function. Too many an of- ficer is merely the big shot who gets to run around school, getting VIP treatment. Still others believe that officers are the Hrah-rahsf' ln other words, they attend all football games, pep rallies. school productions, and band and choir concerts. Senior class president Ronnie Rhine doesnt seem to feel that wav. This year turned out to be good because we had more monei than the senior class has ever had before. He went on to say, The whole year was real good because the school spirit seemed to turn around and have a fresh new spirit. Officers were Ronnie, vice-president Kathi Gunnels, secretary Susan lforrester and treasurer Barbara Alexander. The senior officers were in charge of many proiects. The hrst proiect was a tipe of rummage sale. That is, they sold all the old things that were stored in Mrs. Dorothy Miles llighstepper SIOISIOOITI. Among the articles petldled were frosted Haltom glasses, spirit towels, and llaltom Buff hats. Though it was all second-hand material. the class made a great deal of money, According to Mrsjo Peninington, about 50 peo- ple helped to sell the items, The next fund raiser was Christmas ornaments, Mrs. Pennington stated that the man who was responsible for suggesting the ornaments made a big mistake. The ornaments were supposed to hare been peppermint candies. llowever, the pro- ject was an enormous financial success raising over 51500, This gave the class of '81 almost S1800 to work with for the prom. The officers played an intricate part in both sales. organizing homeroom pick-ups. checking in the items and money, and distributing the goods. lfinallv, the officers were partly responsible for organiying the senior program. Ronnie was responsible for props and Kathi was in charge of the programs, liarbara coordinated several meetings before school to get other seniors to get other seniors to write the material for the show.

Eight to twelve could be an appropriate title for this storyg but instead of Dolly Par- ton or Lily Tomlin playing the main role, Tammy Watts would be the star. Tammy worked in the school office with secretary Ann Gondek. Last year, it was decided that more help was needed in the office. After receiving the approval of Principal Leon Hagmann, Tammy began working dur- ing the summer. I worked in the office last year, I answered the switchboard. Since I had been trained, Mrs. Gondek asked me ifI wanted to work for her. I said yes! Tammy explained, Besides answering the switchboard, Tammy took students their telephone mes- sages, early dismissals, ran errands for teach- ers and administrators. She also took care of the bookstore, except during homeroom, when it was closed. On occasion, when Mrs. Gondek was absent for a day, Tammy would work the full eight-hour shift, instead of her usual eight-twelve. Minimum wage is what she received from the administration building. Tammy was the first VOE student to be hired in the office. I like the job very much. I like being around my school friends, I don't have to work on Saturdays, and I get the same holi- days as everyone else. It would seem like I'd be at school instead of working half a day, and missing stuff like assemblies, she explained. A SENIORS Cors i-Gonzales T' v Vw' X ,x. X ' 1 ll an V 'N C, ,ft as '-as ..

Carol had been riding and working with horses since she was three or four years old. My mom had horses when she was little, and we have had them since we were little bitty. There has always been a horse around, she commented. Not only did she ride horses, but she also entered them in contests. She showed Ebony's Motion, which is just one of her three Tennessee Walking horses. She has also shown King Elito and Bald Eagle. Carol won World Championships in 1975, 1978 and 1979. She was a North American Champion horseman of the year for the Southwest Walking Horse Breeders Associa- tion, and the juvenile High Point Champion, to name a few. She showed Ebony's Motion at different places including Baton Rouge, La., Selbyville, Tenn., Houston, San Antonio, Fort Worth Stock Show and the Texas State Fair in Dallas. When I ride, I don't think or worry about anything else. I just think about riding, she answered when asked about what she liked best about her horses. The worst thing, she added. is whenever they act dumb, by trying to throw me off or run off with me. It's embarrassing when they do that in a show. Showing horses may have been her favorite hobby, but Carol also painted and sketched and sewed and played tennis doubles with Sherri May. Carol's parents own the Chapman Medical Clinic, where Carol worked part-time. Carol won many ribbons in the art shows at school. She specializes in oil, water color and pastels.

Ifyou could dance the part right, you got the part.' She could be called Florabelle, or Lady Bumbles, or Tessi Tura, or Cyndi King. Cyndi did not really have all those names, but she did portray those roles in school productions. She had been acting since ninth grade, and had taken drama class every year since then. She had parts in the plays The Cop and the Anthem, Hello, Dolly, Canterbury Taler, and Our Town, She liked acting because she felt that if she made the audience forget their problems for an hour or two, then she had done her job. During the summer of 1980, Cyndi work- ed at Casa Manana. A friend was applying there, so she decided to apply also. Her work included building props for the many dif- ferent musicals performed during the sum- mer season. In addition to building things, Cyndi also helped change scenes during the shows f real fast according to Cyndij, and for her work, she received 31 a night. One embarrassing thing that happened was one night I hit Ruta Lee going on the stage to change sets. She was going up the wrong ramp and I fell and got caught in her dress, Cyndi explained. Not only did Cyndi help with the shows, but she actually got to be in one - the pro- duction Greate. They needed extra people for a dance part. If you could dance the part right, you got the part. I got to dance with the best dancer, she humorously remarked. It was a sellout every night! She said it was a real good experience and would look good on her college references, Aside from acting, Cyndi enjoyed singing. She was choir president as well as drama president. She was in the ensemble and the Chorale, and worked from morning till night practicing for school plays or preparing for a choir concert. As for college, Cyndi planned to attend Sam Houston State with a scholarship in drama, where she wanted to major in acting. IfI don't go into acting professionally, l'll probably teach drama, she added. M A person can develop a cold, sings the starlet of Guys and Dolls - Cyndi King.

But senior Felicia Neyra, a former Cuban refugee, felt happy for them. In 1970 Felicia along with her family, which included her little sister, little brother and parents, came to America from Havana, Cuba. Communism was getting worse and the financial situation was bad. Workers only made about 3100 monthly, she said, when explaining her family's reason for coming to America. Because of money sent to the Cuban government, by Felicia's aunt and un- cle in New York, she and her family were able to depart from Havana. We didn't come on boats though, we were able to fly, she commented, Felicia's relatives brought the Neyra fami- ly an apartment so they could get out on their own. One problem they had in ad- justing was the language. By listening to Americans and having English teachers, they learned to speak English in just two years. Although Felicia was only six when she and her family left Cuba, she recalled dif ferent things about the country. They didn't have tennis shoes, and meat was eaten only once a week, she stated. Not only were clothes limited, but citizens were allowed one pair of shoes year- ly, no matter what condition they were in. Blue jeans cost 3150. Radios and tape recorders were not sold in Cuba, citizens had to come to America to buy them. On TV, the good side of Cuba is shown. It's not really that way. The houses are fall- ing apart, and are getting worse, she explained. Felicia knows these things by keeping in touch with her grandmother, who along with her uncle and cousin reside in Havana. The Neyras are trying to get these relatives to America, but will be able to only transport their grandmother, because the Neyras have not been American citizens long enough. Felicia and her family are happy living here. She considers herself lucky to be in America, and is grateful to the U.S. and its citizens for the freedom she and her family now have. it if 'V V VLVK tl. i V ff , K j f .,,,u..-...ia -tamwj. , 35 3 ..., . .

In addition to these honors, Trena served as goal tender for the basket- ball team and was involved in the student council. In her spare time, Trena worked at the County Seat. 'We usually just modeled around the mollf Strolling through the corridors of North llills Mall. one would have seen the usual si 'hts la perceived there - eating establishments. depart- ment and novelty stores. and shoe shops. But it' one would have been there on Saturday between 10 till noon, one might have seen a familiar face. Trena liockmans 'l'rena modeled for l,ester Melnick's store, and modeled anything from shorts to dresses. We usually just modeled around the food dispen- saries or out in the mall, and we usually did it from 10 in the morning to noon, she explained. She went for an interview and was accepted because of her personality, appearance, and self- confidence. Not only was she on the modeling board for two years, but she, along with senior Lisa Rolader, was captain of the modeling crew. ller job included phoning other models, reminding them of what to wear Qwhich was pro- vided by Lester Melnicksl and what time they were to model. I like modeling there very much. it's a dif- ferent experience every time. You meet all kinds of people, nice, crazy, people you know. even family, she cotnrnented. Trena attributed her job at Melnicks to the fact that she spent four months learning various modeling and makeup techniques at liarbizon School ol' Modeling. She graduated in August '79 after learning the three types of modeling: runway, which is fashion show modelingg tea room, which is modeling in restaurantsg and still modeling which is posing as IlliiIlIlCql.1lllS in K.lCpiifUllCIlf SIOYCS. Besides modeling. Trena worked at the 5-7-9 Shop for two years and then her senior year mov- ed down the mall to the County Seat.

Child lightens hearts 'For the most loving Mommy . . .' A twelveeyear oldgboy lost his mother in February of leukemia. According to Mrs. Natalie Whitfield, junior English teacher, the little boy had known of her disease for about five years. He is now living with his grandmother who is employed by the Bird- ville Independent School District. The junior class is sponsoring the little boy by collecting money from teachers and students in the school. Student council parliamentarian Steve Mylius and junior class president Robb White are going to be in charge of this account. All the money received will be used to benefit the boy at occasions such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and his birthday. It will not be used to pay remaining medical expenses existing from his tnother's illness. If the child states something specific that he wants, we will buy it for him with the grandmothefs approval. He has only told us of one thing that he wanted, and that was a BB gun. The grandmother would not approve, Mrs. Whitfield said. A sum of S585 was collected from students and teachers to support the boy. An abundance of canned goods and staples were collected for the boy and his family. In the future they plan to collect again and hold bake sales to increase the money already saved in the account. A special valentine was made especially for his mother and placed in her hands before her burial. On the front of the valen- tine, there was a picture of his rnommy and these words were written inside: For the most loving Mommy in the world and HEAVEN, I wanted to give you a card or something for you to have throughout the years. l love you so much but I know you know it. So say hi Papa for me and tell him I Love him very much. And that grandma misses him. I can see it in her eyes. I will be good in school and grow strong and smart, like you. The way you wanted so take care and say hi to God for me. Your loving son, They are the best class of juniors that ever passed through this school. They are so sensitive of the needs of others and are really gung-ho! Mrs. Whitfield said. ng I 51 - si.- ,, .4 'lx Fuentes.

Neal wants to become a chemical operational repairman. This person moves to different plants refineries, and chemical laboratories and explains to them how to fix things. To train for this position, Neal would preferably like to attend the Massachusetts In- stitute of Technology. Neal has been a member of the Gifted Students Institute for three years. As a member, he and other members went to TCU in the sum- mer of 1978 for two weeks and produced a magazine. Neal added, We took pictures and got the cameras ready. In the summer of 1979, Neal and nine other Gifted Students members traveled to England for three weeks. The subject they studied was soo Years of English History. The highlight of the trip was a five hour treasure hunt. Having groups Neal Quimby clowns around during Chemistry Club demonstrations. of three and four apiece, each group received a questionnaire about English Social History. They used subways and traveled through the city to answer the questions. i During the heatwave of 1980, Neal worked as Games Assistant Manager in the arcades at Six Flags. Neal is also a devoted reporter of the Haltom Image. Most of his subjects are on school board and educational policies. If Neal was not as intelligent as he is, he would be considted a discipline problem, Mrs. jennifer Tomlinson, newspaper sponsor jokingly said. He shoots people with water guns, sabotages other students drinks, and stamps all the kleenex in the Kleenex box with the Haltom Image stamp. Another favorite game was hanging his paper artwork from the ceil- ing in the journalism room. sk 257 238 Kirkpatrick - Long JUNIORS Kirkpatrick Brenda Kithas, Stephanie Kittrell, Karla Kneeland, Teal Krametbauer, Kevin Krupka, Amy Kurosky, Ritchie Lai, Houng Lane, Kenny Lambert, Shelley Larimer, Kevin Lee, Darren Lee,jennifer Lernaster, D.

Last year it was more individually played. This year it wasn't so divided. lt was more together like a team should be Maria added. Maria who: would like to attend the University of Texas at Austin played back Q row and setter. A. p .K .ag I would like to play in college, but l'don't think l would make it because l am too short, Maria stated. When I am setting, I get very nervous before the game.

Anticipation lingered through the crowd. The shrill sound of the bell launched the beginning of the third round. A saliva-filled mouthpiece was shoved into sophomore Randy Gann's mouth as the oozing blood was sponged away from the cut above his eye. Both fighters proceeded to the center of the ring. Gann began throwing pun- ches and did not let up. A right hook hurled to the cheekbone' an uppercut to the chin. Although his opponent ducked and dodg- ed, it was clear that Gann was going to win the round. However was it enough to make up for the first two rounds!

'We're there to make the athletes play better than they would if there was no one there to help.' l 1 by Sharon Pelzel Sounds of a shrill whistle echoed through the air over the cheers of the crowd. Noticing the confusion on the field, silence spread across the stands. Coach Tommy Patrey, trainer, assisted by Rhonda McDonald and jessica Taylor, both sophomore trainers, hustled to the injured player. After a few minutes the patient was on his feet. With the help of Rhonda andjessica, he wobbled off the field. Reaching the side lines, he was laid on the ground. After a thorough check of ribs and neck, he was asked several questions, mainly if he knew where he was. Slow reactions, unaware of surroundings and long responses led the trainers to the diagnosis of a concussion. A close eye was kept on him for the rest of the game. Situations like this are part of the everyday routine of Rhonda McDonald andjessica Taylor. I like doing it Ctrainingj, and ifl had to, l would drop everything to keep my job. It has helped me to meet new people and has changed me for the better, Rhonda remarked. Coach Patrey visited Wataugajunior High last year and asked if anyone would like to become an athletic trainer. Interested people were to set up a meeting with him to discuss the details. Rhonda took this advantage and made an appointment. ygmeu... f. f N. Sf ,ik .my Coach Patrey told her all the details, ups and downs, and gave her the decision of taking it or leaving it. She made her decision and has not regretted it. jessica was on her way to becoming a Richland Rebel when she was inspired to become a trainer. Rhonda encouraged her and filled her in with all the informationjessica talked to Coach Patrey to make things final. To catch up on what she miss- ed,jessica worked 12 hours a day doing anything from reading, on up to practicing the taping of ankles. I enjoy doing it, and, hopefully, it will help me out more when Igo to college. Were there to make them Cathletesj play better than they would if there was no one there to help. according to jessica. Being the only girls in the locker room and on the field does not have much ofan effect on their job or them. It's not a big deal to me. I'm there to do a loh and nothing else, Rhonda replied. jessica expressed her feelings in saying, lin here to help them Cathletesb out and make sure everythings okayg to do a job, do it right and learn more for the future.

After stuffing with every last crumb of food, the bus took off for Fair Park in Dallas -the Shakespeare Exhibit. With an hour of extra time, 30 members of 'the class were able to explore nearby museums. The favorite happened to be the Aquarium. When the hour was over, everyone cramm- ed behind the tour guide, interested in what appeared ahead. Everything from Shakespeares birth to his original clothing and a copy of his first play was restored. Because the clock was approaching 2:50 though, the tour had to be cut short in order to get back to school before 5:50. Honor's English is a super program and a fantastic opportunity, according to Mrs. Mickie Peterson, sophomore Honor's English teacher. Verbal expansion of ideas and thoughts took place during the year. Actually it gave a student more learning experiences and taught him better study and writing habits. A student capable of learning faster than others did so because a lot of time was not spent on sub- jects a student should have already learned. Reading and writing was heavily stressed to help prepare sophomore honor students for junior honors and so on up to college English. Discipline skills were also taught to ease the difficulty of future essay papers. Honors English gives me a chance to develop the abilities that I acquired in previous English classes stated Tammi Shelton honor student. Honors English is a great class remark- ed Wayne Ross also an honor student. Not only does it build on my abilities it also adds to my outlook on life. Mrs. Peterson really knows what she's doing. The most enjoyment of the class came from the fact that it was much easier to do special projects and take field trips. Along with the trip to the Shakespeare Exhibit the Chinese Exhibit at Kimbell Art Museum and a performance of a Shakespearean play were also visited. Eligible sophomores were recommended by their freshman English teachers. The stu- dent had to show maturity work ' - dependently be conscientious and b responsible. iI'k 1. K .

He's just Principal Leon Hagmann caught in an unsuitable circumstance. Mr. Hagmann attained this topless posi- tion by resting himself against the door frame in the main office unaware of the fresh coat of paint applied to the walls. After noticing the new streak of paint down his shirt, he discarded it to be cleaned, and resumed his duties. A report was due to be at the Ad- ministration Buildingf' said Mt. Hagmann, and you can't go in there without a coat and tie. Thus Mr. Hagmann spruced up as much as possible, putting a tie around his neck and a coat over his undershirt, and nonchalantly ventured to the Ad. Building. The funny thing about it was,'l said Mr. Hagmann, a lot of people down there didn't notice. Although Mr. Hagmann is not noted as a fashionable dresser, many think of him as a congenial administrator, who has worked with teachers and students efficiently for ten years. Providing a safe and comfortable environ- ment for students and teachers is Mr. Hagmann's main concern. To maintain such an environment, Mr. Hagmann tours the building and parking lot twice a day to check the condition of the building and to correct student misconduct. After dealing with matters on his regular curriculum, such as filling out forms and answering phone calls, Mr. Hagmann focuses on extracurricular activities. He is a prominent Buffalo fan, attending as many sports events and school functions as his schedule permits. He was present at many of the girls' basketball games, an event that doesn't ac- commodate a mass of people, and when the girls beat Richland Mr. Hagmann, full of ex- citement, tossed his cowboy hat in the air. Mr. Hagmann has many varied respon- sibilities but he attained one on Christmas that was apart from his administrative duties. During lunch, Mr. Hagmann was clothed in a Santa Claus outfit, while Mrs. Glenda Picha and Mrs. Bettye Wright served as his elves. They posed for pictures as students sat in Santa's lap. I have time fo fish and do some hunting when I finish doing school work about - twice a year, Mr. Hagmann said, hinting on the amount of work he has to accomplish. Each summer, the Hagmann family, grouped with several other families in- cluding assistant principal Tom Watkins' household, travel to Colorado to camp and trout fish. It's beautiful up there, said Mr. Hagmann, the stars are so close you can almost touch 'emi' A Principal Leon Hagmann fashions his different attire after getting paint on his shirt ASSISTANT PRINCIPALS ,wed F 6 ff '-N ai 5 Q- 4- -. . rn Assistant principal Ed Logan clears up paperwork while assistant principal Thomas Watkins enjoys his pipe before school begins. ij .

Watkins, he's no 'Angell' On Campus suspension retuliutes by Rusty Biles Upon entering assistant principal Thomas Watkins' office, most students carrying disciplinary forms were not fearing getting licks, but had a feeling of depression towards the dreaded on-campus suspension class that would lead to their punishment. Since the transition between Mr. Watkins and assistant principal joe Angell, there has been a different attitude towards student misconduct. Mr. Watkins, along with assis- tant principals joAnn Kelley and Ed Logan, started a strict OCS program, which eliminated most paddling. I don't bust them unless they request it, said Mr. Watkins, but disposing of licks didn't make him an Angell, The OCS Pro- gram had very strict rules, only allowing two visits to the restrooms each day and no talk- ing. According to Mr. Watkins this method of punishment was developed to help pre- vent repreated acts of student misconduct, and it did . . . With this new discipline pro- gram malcontent quickly drained from ex- perienced OCS students, Mr. Watkins, like Mr. Angell, graduated from Haltom and both played football, Mr. Angell, as a senior, was a guard on the varsi- ty team, while sophomore Watkins was the center on the junior varsity. Mr. Watkins was assistant principal at Watauga junior High for six years before transferring to Haltom. 'l'hey're kids, no better or no worse than I expected, There are bad kids wherever you go, but there are some excellent ones too, said Mr. Watkins, referring to his move to Haltom. Mr. Angell transferred to North Oaks junior High to be assistant principal. Many students liked the manner of his disciplinary action, which usually resulted in paddling or staying after school, but those who visited the new law enforcer's office found that Mr. Watkins was no Angell, STAFF Women teachers jubilantly cheer on the Buffs led by cheerleader Tammy Simmons. ? 0 fi I 1 If 'Q it I I6 '4 i .4-.

From English teachers to typing instructors, a group of 10 to 15 teachers, mostly women, attended the pep rallies weekly. They erupted the gym with their own battle cry and decorated it with orange shirts and signs of encouragement. To urge attendance, Mrs. Mary Atkins and Mrs. Sarah Gomez put notes in the teachers' boxes on Friday mornings. The pep rallies werent the end of their spirit. Classrooms were decorated with orange and black symbols. Mrs. Thelma Hill and Mrs. Dolores Webb had a Buff Stuff bulletin board consisting of sports calendars and other spirited emblems. Teachers also displayed support by dress- ing up. Mrs. Barbara Akers characterized Fif- ties Day by wearing rolled up jeans with a baggy shirt and school jacket, while Mrs. Gomez and Mrs. Atkins took a more formal approach with evening gowns.

Mrs. Fisher, French teacher, replaced Mrs. Rachael Toornbs, who transferred to Richland. Mrs. Fisher went to school in France at the University of Strasbourg for one semester in 1976. While she was there, she visited numerous places including Paris and the Alps. France is a lot different, said Mrs, Fisher, like when you buy a chicken over there, you get the whole chicken, head and everythingfi The French Club had quite a few parties, but they also were going to Quebec and Montreal over the Easter Holidays. The trip included flying to Quebec and visiting the Cathedral and an underground city with sub- way, taking a boat trip down the St. Lawrence River and going toboganning. Then flying to Montreal and visiting a French school and the Montmarency Falls, which are larger than the Niagra Falls, and visiting a homemade bread and butter farm and several other old buildings, churches, and museums. The trip lasted for five days and the total cost of the vacation amounted to 55460 per person, but to help cover the expenses the club sold French candy. Although the trip to Quebec was an im- portant event, it wasn't the club's main con- cern because only eight students went and Mrs. Fisher had wanted to involve the whole group. Her main objective was to create in- terest in learning a foreign language and ex- pose the students to French culture. Learning another language helps you understand your own language and enables you to communicate with other people in different countries, stated Mrs. Fisher. Several students corresponded to pen pals in different countries to help learn more about French culture. The first year at Haltom was busy for Mrs. Fisher. Besides handling the French Club, she also taught a sophomore English class and sponsored Future Teachers of America. 7? i We 3. ,,,, .. ,fl W... Q Zi 2 , if f aaa '-, ,gre .W 01 in Q3 vm. aa..

With the future in mind, changes were still being made by the end of the school year. New tennis courts had been approved by the school board, as well as a new journalism room and darkroom. Spring training consisted of more athletes than ever before. And Mr. Leon Hagmann resigned his job as principal after ten years of service. Yes, the school year had quickly and quietly slipped away, but the memories that survived still linger, though in slow-motion joyous moments, sad moments . . . some dis- tinct, some misty and vague . . . but all a part ofthe past. The senior class song, The Best of Times by Styx, best described it in saying, Our memories of yesterday will last a life- time. We'll take the best, forget the .iraq rest, and someday we'll find . . . these are the best of times. Senior Kenney Oatman helps dress junior Robb White, who gives the student body the campaign yawn that won him the student council presidency. Principal Leon Hagmann fashions his new quartz watch presented to him at the end of the year by the teachers, in appreciation for his ten years of service. 288 The 1981 BUFFALO, with a press run of 1000, was produced by the yearbook staff of Haltom High School and printed by Taylor Publishing Company of Dallas, Texas, with the help of Acie Mitchell. The book is bound in Smythe binding, and the cover is printed on 70 pound Kromek- ote using a four-color process photograph. The 288 pages are printed on 80 pound enamel paper with headlines printed in 30 and 36 point Melior and Melior Italic. The body copy type face is printed in 10 point Garamond, the introduction in 12 point Garamond, and the captions in 8 point Garamond bold, using solid spacing. The duotones in the introduction, division pages, and the closing were printed in buckskin tan. The class and faculty por- traits were taken by Gary johanssen of Marcel's Studio, who also took pic- tures of graduation and the prom. And a word of thanks to Rudy Galvan, for his special contributions, and Mr. Leon Hagmann for supporting us through thick and thin. The BUFFALO is a member of the Texas High School Press Association, Interscholastic League Press Conference, and the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. GULUPHUINL Cover: Photograph by Wayne Trimble. Originally shot in black-and-white on Tri- X 400 film, the picture was taken of a buf- falo calf at the International Wildlife Park in Grand Prairie. Once the negatives were developed, a photographic process called posterization was used. The original black- and-white negative was exposed on high- contrast transparency paper called Kodal- ith Ortho Film Type 5, in three separate exposures detailing the highlights, mid- tones, and darks. Contact sheets were then made on the same type ortho, producing negative transparencies. Placing the high- light positive with the midtone negative, the midtone positive with the dark nega- tive, and the dark positive by itself, was the next step. Then the first set of ortho was placed in a specially made registration board, and photographed on 25 ASA color slide film. The camera was set on a tripod and a triple exposure was taken, in an area that was totally dark, of each set of ortho. The ortho was illuminated by a flash unit, providing separate colors for each set of ortho, first a yellow filter, then red, then blue. Once the triple exposure was taken, the slides were developed, and printed on Cibachrome paper. tall - Editor!
