Excelling athletes, clubs and fine arts were a reason to claim We 're movin' on Sports would not be left behind either. Major milestones included the girls basketball team winning their first district title with an impressive undefeated record. Senior team members Joanna Hooker and Kathy Anderson attracted major college scouts, as did Senior Jay Crane and Junior Bill Wirskye of the Boys Varsity team. Todd Phelps, senior, received a football scholarship from the Texas Tech Red Raiders. The Girls Cross Country team again ad- vanced to the state meet, as did Mike Ford of the boys team. Other signs of change, such as the starred uniforms of the boys basketball team, and the new dress and hair codes of the Athletic Department, moved the teams on to higher standards. Other areas that excelled included band, choir and F.B.L.A. In the band, Senior trumpet player Paul Bramlett earned a position in the Ft. Worth Youth Orchestra and the Lion's Club All-State Band. Junior Lonnie McCloud led the choir achievers by becoming a member of the All-State Choir for the second year in a row. The Future Business Leaders of America returned from their yearly district con- test with the Sweepstakes Award for the most contest wins. They also received the Outstanding Chapter Award. Through the efforts of these organizations, our extra- curricular activities moved on to greater heights. -vii? The cafeteria became a popular place to eat. Todd Phelps, senior, enjoys his lunch.

Cars and rock groups along with new hot spots allowed us to say We 're movin ' on The student life also did its share of progressing. New hangouts emerged into the life of our students. Barnacle Bill's and the newly remodeled Putt-Putt became the places to be seen. Chevrolet claimed the car of the year with its new version of the Z28. i'Men at Work became the rock group of '83, while old favorites like Sammy Hagar and JourneyH still held tight to their avid fans. These refreshing additions to the lives and styles of those attending I-laltom proved that we were truly Movin' On. Sophomore Elizabeth Walker rests in the hallway after a busy day.
