Coach Kitchens was presented with a Wildcat blazer in March of 1967 by the four basketball teams. Those chosen to represent their team at the presentation were Charles Gray, Brenda Bull, Marlene Coffman, and Jeny Dean. Note: we were trying to economize by putting two pictures in one. Our new gym was dedicated by Reverend W.D. Hooten on February 17, 1967. It was dedicated with the wish that the gym be used for good sportsmanship.

1966-67 SPORTS HIGHLIGHTS Richard Spence and Clifton Beavers were our track repre- sentatives at the state meet at Harding College in Searcy. To qualify for the state track meet, a boy must place first or second in an event. Richard received the trophy for the athlete scoring the most individual points in the district meet. Linda Payton, Julia Morris, Buddy Coffman, Brenda Bull, Edwin Moody, and Karen Burch were selected as all- district players from their respective teams. Each year ten top players in the district tournament are chosen for this honor. It is one of the highest honors that a person can receive in sports. Julia Morris and Linda Payton were chosen as two of the ten girls for the all- conference team. The senior girls volleyball team, Linda Payton, Julia Morris, Debbie Thompson, Marlene Coffman, Sandra Bull, Carolyn Bone, Mary Ringer, Janis Murdoch, Janie Row- lands, and Coach Kitchens, finished the regular season undefeated. They were runners-up in the Tech Tourna- ment, losing the final game to Class A Paris by a score, of 15-13. The senior 880-yard relay team, which consisted of Clifton Beavers, Ray Watson, Bill Freeman, and Richard Spence, dashed to a respectable fourth place finish in the District 4B track meet at Waldron.
