You’ve been waiting all year. “I wonder how many pictures I’m in” you say. “Oh, who cares?” We, the year- book staff know what you’ve been going through and understand the annual year- book curiosity dilema. Last summer, as members of the staff loaded up to go to the Interscholastic League Press Conference in Austin, the battle between old Coke and new Coke was at its peak. Just as the Coca-Cola Company found they couldn’t do away with classic Coke, we found we didn’t want to do away with the traditions of our book. Favorites, Who’s Who, clubs and class pictures have become a part of our yearbook tradition. But, we’ve taken a new ap- proach. For the first time, our book is college size and sum- mer delivery, so we can give full coverage of the school year from the first pep rally to graduation. We've been excited about this for 12 whole months. We hope you like the changes and recognize the tradition. It’s been a concentrated effort to retain the old but present it in a new wa y. That’s why we chose the theme, “It’s Classic ... the first of its kind.” FROM HARD HAT to steel toed boots, Tom Reed, senior, pretends to be a blue collar worker for Halloween Dress-Up Day. “MATERIAL GIRL”? BY Madonna and Sheena Easton’s ‘“‘Strut’’ were popular tunes played by the band at pep rallies and football games. The brass section worked hard at giving the songs pizazz, while the mar- ching band brought home a II rating from UIL contest. Marches per- formed at the contest included ‘‘Gentry’s Triumphant March,”’ “‘Bar- ie and Bailey’s Favorite,’’ ‘‘“Ponderosa Sinfonians’’ and ‘‘Honey oys.”” HE LAST PEP rally of the regular season was dedicated to the DONATED BY MR. and Mrs. Galen Moye, the Lions were greeted by pniors.

Opening @ 1 the first of its kind — ever-ending quest for excellence leads to changes for special, oe Rs TE historical school year By Suzanne Moye It’s September 3, 8:20 a.m. The first day of school and you’re already wondering if something worth talking about will happen. “Doesn’t anything ever happen around this place?” you say to yourself. Some memorable things did happen for the first time around the school, the state and the nation. Texas celebrated its barely pro- nounceable sesquicentennial marking 150 years of freedom, juniors were required to pass an exit test to be eligible for graduation (Thanks to Mr. H. Ross Perot and his committee), the Lions were 10-0 in the regular season, Libya threatened war with the U.S., for the first time in 19 years there was a tragedy in space when the space shuttle Challenger exploded taking all seven lives of the crew including the first space-bound teacher, and seat belts were required to be worn by law. These events were worth discussing along with the really big news about who did what and with whom on Saturday night. That’s the reason a bigger and more complete coverage of the year was needed.

By Suzanne Moye ou can’t believe it. Shock. A big fat “F” marks the failure of your essay paper. You carefully make your way up to the teacher’s desk and ask “Why?” She looks you straight in the eye and says “This paper shows a lack of thought and is sloppily thrown together. How do you plan to go to college if you can’t even write?” You look terrified. The essay seem- ed passable when you turned it in, even though it took a whole lunch period to write. But she’s not finished. “School is a place to better yourself and learn, not a social event.” You ponder the thought. Do school and education have some sort of vague connection? Is it possible, that after all the times you thought the biggest worry in English was finding out who was dating whom, that there was something more. Is she right? This thought has probably crossed every student’s mind at one point in his school career. During school, learning played a large role in a student’s life, but after school was a different story. Friday “OH, WHAT MAMA doesn’t know!”’ “Cooter”? Brown, D.J., set the mood for dancin’ and romancin’ at the annual PTA-sponsored Homecoming Dance in the Community Center after the game. — Lance and Lori, Mama knows now! Special times, special friends afternoon, as books were thrown into lockers, a sudden transformation took place in the students. Slowly, the figure of a teenager took shape as the evening approached. The good stuff had started. The first few months of school, football games entertained loyal students for less than $2. Cruising down Richardson Drive Friday and Saturday night passed the minutes, and parked cars in the K-Mart park- ing lot showed signs of the weekend. Larry G’s was a popular spot to whit- tle away precious hours whether play- ing pool or just checking out the scam. Movies were another enjoyable way to spend time and money. For those who wanted comedy, “Back To the Future” and “European Vacation” were offered. Then, of course, everyone turned out to see “Rocky IV” with Sylvester Stallone. For some students, VCR’s and McDonald’s fries were the limit. Or, maybe, others went on a Saturday night date to Hunan’s in Longview. But, no matter how students spent their time outside of school, they always spent it with special friends making special memories. Student Life time to sit down before his pic- files in front of the camera. 6 Classic JAMES RAY SMITH hardly has ture is shot and the next student Many traditional events IC; anticipated, remembered By Renee Ross Some things never change — homework, school pic- tures, letter jackets, talking in the hall, senior themes, tar- dies, sleeping in class, cafeteria food, pep rallies, and outside reading books. As time passes, things change and most of the time that’s all for the best. But there are some important high school memory-makers that will always be classics. School pictures, for example: “They usually don’t look like me, but most of the time they’re O.K.,” said Lamarcus Hicks. Another tradition that con- tinues to excite is the letter jacket. That proud piece of new leather can make a dif- ference to an athlete, voca- tional worker, band student and extra-curricular student. “IT was real excited about “OH MY GOSH! Look at my pictures!’’ getting my jacket,” said Tina Bryan, “I am real proud of ite” These objects might become extinct in later years, but there is one distinctive part of high school that will never change and will always be remembered — the ex- quisite cuisine of the cafeteria. The first thing that comes to mind when entering the cafeteria is what should I eat, and why am I eating this? “It’s better than eating a Snickers,” said Terry Nicholas. Educational traditions come and go with new trends or legislation. But some school things never change. These classic items are what you fantasize about before you get to high school and remember long often you’ve graduated. Blake Blakewell junior, stares at his school pictures which everyone thinks don’t look a bit like them. Still, many buy them and trade with friends.

Their escorts for the night were Brent Beauchamp, Dodd Dorsey, Jay Guin, Mike Hardwick, Tim Vandegriff, Eric McGee, Kevin Pace, Craig Robbins, Michael Wilhite and Barry Willard. Last year’s homecoming queen, Tangela Gates, also attended to crown the new queen. Preparing for this evening wasn’t all fun and games for the girls. One problem they had to face was choosing their escorts. A few easily chose their brothers. Two of the duchesses chose their brothers to escort them. “It seemed more special with my brother escorting me,” said Amy. These small problems gave way to the excitement and curiosity of the evening’s main question of who would become Homecoming Queen. The suspense ended when Sheri was crowned Home- coming Queen. She was presented with a dozen roses and a little kiss from her escort. “I couldn’t believe this happened,” she said. Coming Home ‘85 was a special night to remember. After the mums had been hung on the wall, pictures framed and new outfits now worn for dress clothes, the glitter and excitement of that classic event becomes only a memory until next fall.

Patrick’s shoes came from Pay Less in the ‘‘large’’ department and Steven’s skimpy coat gave him muscle cramps before the day was over. Dress-up days fun for change ookin’ Looney By Renee Ross Pam Brown Playing dress-up, a hold- over from younger years, is still fun for teenagers and faculty on special days like Halloween and spirit week. Bandana Day, a traditional favorite, found everybody begging, borrowing and buy- ing bandanas to complete their attire. “I just wanted to show my school spirit,” said Tasha Lees. Another popular day, GQ- day, happened to fall on the same day as school pictures. Everyone “styled” to look their best for pictures while showing school spirit. “I just wanted to show everybody that I’m the sharpest dresser in school,’ said Lewis Anthony. Along with spirit week many students, as well as faculty, dressed up in Hallo- ween costumes. Influenced by Rambo, a number of students GETTING INTO THE spirit of things, Jennifer Carter and Deb- bie Chapman, seniors, go Hawaiian during Homecomeing Spirit Week. Each year the Stu- dent Council sponsors a spirit week leading up to the Homecoming game. chose the camoflauge look. “My dad had a lot of camoflauge, so I just decided to use that,” said Kelly Brady. Out of their usual profes- sional dress, the teachers had different reactions to their peculiar costumes. Miss Virgina Harrison thought it was a “kettle full of fun.” Surgeon Gwen Stauts was “ready to operate,” while Mrs. Terry Bandy dressed like Bozo said she would have no clowning around in class. Mr J. C. Watkins said he felt like the devil. Deciding what to wear to school every day is a major hassle. But when dress-up days come along, it’s fun to go through the family closets or run out to Wal-Mart and put together a terrific costume for the event. Regardless of whether it’s styling or looking looney, it’s a diversion not to wear the same old things. ee COUNTING BANDANAS DUR- ING Hi-Life, Jennifer McMillin and Doug Foster see who’s got the most for the Spirit Week Contest. | WAKE UP TOO late?

PROFILED SETTING YEAR- BOOK copy at the computer, John Culley’s hair style shows up well. Several of the guys had their hair close cropped on one side of the part and longer on the other. 12 @ Hwair Styles By Renee Ross Pam Brown Hair is one big hairy deal to students. Who wants to come to school with the greasies? And what about those morn- ings when you just can’t do ANYTHING with those curly locks? It happens to every- one, both boys and girls. Having the hair cooperate could be the highlight of the morning and having a sharp new style out of the fashion magazine makes you feel on top of the world. The hair styles of the 80’s are some- times called outrageous with hair colored red, green, yellow, purple and orange, and spikes that stick straight BOO up in the air, and heads shaved on one side. Although unique, the hair styles worn by young people in the cities are a bit ahead of the times for East Texas students. The flat top, a popular style from the 50’s, is worn by many of the guys. Buzzed hair, approximately cut 1 inch all over the head, is also a favorite. ‘‘I wanted something different,” said Clint Collins, sophomore. Tails, when there is a strand of hair longer than the rest of it, is by far the most- worn hair styles for girls. “I used to have long hair, so to remember how long it was I —_— wr FOLLOWING THE TRENDY fad, Mrs. Ayree Stokes, world history teacher, wears the extra long sweater length.

JAMMIN OUT DOESN’T necessarily have to be concerts. Just cruising the town listening to your favorite tapes will do the trick. With Morris Day and Kur- tis Blow, a couple of soul singers, blaring over the speakers, boredom is quickly cured. T-SHIRTS POP UP everywhere after a concert making them the most popular souvenir. Gerald Roy, senior, bought his at a RUSH concert and wears it to Mrs. Lou Ann Standard’s data processing class. The purchase of t-shirts is only a small amount of the thousands of dollars made from concerts. Music provides entertainment — e at home, in cars, at concerts — By Pam Brown “Oak Tree, put you to the test. Oak Tree, when it comes to dancing I’m the best.” Music, who could live without it! It’s as necessary as oxygen to our existence. We have it in our cars, in every room of our house, and we even wire up with our Walkmans. The music of the 80’s has varied from punk to heavy metal to soul and finally to pop. Concerts have been a popular source of musical entertainment this year. From down home George Strait to the jammin’ beat of Zapp, East Texas provides a variety of performances in an increasing number of concert facilities. Even though we cate without music, the cost of this essential element can take a chunk out of the pocketbook.

Relaxation involves get- ting comfortable, pigging out and getting on the phone. GETTING WRITTEN UP for video movie tickets is a common activity for high schoolers. Brad Hudson, along with many others, have found work in one of the rental agencies that employ many students. Videos have been called the business boom of the 80’s with the average tape costing two bucks. Cheap Thrills IT’S HARD TO believe that this is a class project, but Miss Joe Hudson’s sociology class celebrated its last days in the semester with a slumber party at her house. Getting together to watch movies is a popular activi- ty when the cash flow is low. ee eT SE La C . . | Surviving ‘No Dough Blues’ heap Thrills ' WELL, NOTHING TO do on the weekends? A com- mon alternative to this problem is Larry G’s. On Friday and Saturday nights Larry G’s is swamped By Renee Ross “Hey whatcha want to do this weekend?” “Well, the cash flow is low, so it’s gotta be cheap. I’m broke.” These times come along for most teenagers often when it’s close to payday, allowance time, or time for the parents to deposit some cash in the checking account. How do you survive these “No Dough Blues’? One popular solution is renting videos. This provides good entertainment at a reasonable price with each movie costing only two bucks. For the guys whose money is scarce, Video Unlimited, GRUBBING OUT ON pizza, Michael Boss, Eric Churchill, Tommy Sharp, juniors; and Steven Goode, senior are splurg- ing on the weekend. Pizza Inn is a popular place to meet friends or just hang out. with people either parked out in front or inside shooting pool and playing video games. Texas Video and other video places come in handy for “‘‘at home” dates. When cash is tight, other students like to spend hour after hour at their favorite hangouts. After school and on some weekends, the park- ing lots at K-Mart and Larry G’s are filled with students parked and talking to their friends, jammin’ their music systems, or just cruisin’. ‘‘All of my friends go there, so I just meet them up there,” said Heather Porter. Another freebie pastime of teenagers is talking on the phone. “Most of my best friends live out of town, that’s the easiest way to keep in touch,” said Rashunda Brown. Hours and hours can slip by just talking to friends, boyfriends or passing the time away. When the cost of entertain- ment becomes too demand- ing, there are always some ex- citing and “cheap” options for the imaginative teenager. Student Life a 17 Teenagers just like to have fun et’s Party By Pam Brown Whether it’s a special event to get all dressed up for, or an informal get-together at the lake on a sunny afternoon, or just regular weekend enter- tainment at the skating rink or Greenville Avenue, teenagers like to PARTY! The weekends usually find Henderson teenagers out of town at Greenville Avenue, a popular teenage club, or at the Warehouse, a local club that opened this fall. Also another local “hot spot” is the Skating Rink. The Skating Rink has always drawn large crowds, but 18 Let’ Party recently it has been offering special entertainment such as the DJ from K-104, Dr. Rock and Moon Dog from K-TUX 99. These DJs attracted not only the local crowd, but peo- ple from as far away as Dallas and Houston. Lake parties are always looked forward to and well at- tended. At these parties there’s usually dancing, visiting with friends, swim- ming, water skiing; and the highlight of the occasion is cooking out on the grill after a big day. Although many think there JUNIORS JEFFERY HENSON, Kevin Price, Tina Williams and sophomore Tim Medford take a break from the dance floor to get refreshed for the next song. is not much to do here, there are a few big happenings that are school-related and draw big crowds. The Prom is by far the most popular. It’s a time to get all dressed up and really step out on the town. Also there is the Homecoming Dance in the fall. These events are big nights, but the partying really does not start until afterward when people go home, get changed into something more comfortable, go out to eat, over to someone’s house to a party, or again, to the lake for dancing and a good time. 4 Senior Sue Williams and junior Tony Foreman do a popular danc € called the Gucci at a dance at the Community Center. ROXANNE TANDY and Craig Watson slow dance at the Homecoming Dance. FRESHMEN LARRY AKIN and Max McGee play a game of pool at the Warehouse. This club, unlike most others, of- fered more than just dancing. SOPHOMORES MICHEAL BROWN and Billy Mapps are jammin’ to “Jail Bait’’ at a dance at the Community Center. The dance was given by Cassandra Brewster and Tina Williams. COOTER BROWN, a local D.J., gets his equipment set up for a jam session at this year’s Homecoming Dance.

Student Life m@ 19 Stars of ’86 By Renee Ross For those who attended the prom, the memories will last a lifetime. The theme for the event was “Stars of ’86” chosen to commemorate the year of Halley’s Comet and point out that each member of the Class of ’86 is a star in his own personal way. The evening was full of dancing, taking pictures and reminiscing with a slide show of the seniors in younger days presented by Hal Schmidt, First Baptist Church youth director. The Junior Class officers planned the prom under the direction of Mrs. Carol Scog- gins, sponsor. Patrick DISCUSSING OLD TIMES with former student Bervin Coleman.

After more dancing and ad- miring the attire of friends, each couple, whether in a limousine of diesel truck, left to enjoy a nice quiet dinner at Steak ’N Ale, Johnny Case’s, La Hacienda or in some cases, The Hot Biscuit. So, even if one’s date was a terrible dancer or the pictures didn’t turn out perfectly, the seniors of ’86 will treasure special memories shared with special friends.

Student Life By Renee Ross Prom — what will I wear? May 10 — what will I wear? “Stars of ’86” theme — what will I wear? The big question for most seniors, after they’ve got a date for the prom, is, “What will I wear?” Prom night is anticipated by many seniors for years and girls particularly. Ever since they dressed their Barbie doll for the prom, they’ve had visions for how they would like to look at theirs. Since this special night only comes around one time for many, everyone wants to Choice of outfit important decision hat will I wear? look his best. Dates usually coordinate with the guy’s tie, cumberbund and boutonniere matching the girl’s dress and coursage. At the prom this year, the style depended on one’s own personality. The guys had a choice of the standard tuxedo in almost any color preferred or the new Miami Vice tux- edo, which featured a coat with tails and baggy pants. “I thought it looked sharp, so I tried it,” said senior Gerald Roy. Another option offered with the tuxedo was a brooch at the neck instead of a bow tie. Girls could chose just about any style that suited their fancy, from huge ruffles to tiny lace gathered all over and from big full long dresses to tight short after-five gowns. The most popular style of formal at the prom was the tea length dress, which came about mid-calf. They were seen both full and fitted. The personal preference of the individual determined the outfits worn with everyone being in style since it was an “anything goes” year for fashion. SENIORS AND THEIR dates chat and admire outfits while they wait in line to get their pic- tures made. b, TONY DECK DOES a little highstepping while modeling his, tuxedo in front of his friends. | SENIOR PATRICK POWDRILL accepts his gift of a graduation figurine from the Junior Class officers for his leadership in representing the school.

Student Life B23 Headlines full of history-making news he Year of ’86 By Renee Ross Headlines and the 5 p.m. news dished out a daily sum- mary of what was going on in the world. Disasters predominated the news this year in both national and in- ternational events. As the whole world looked on, the space shuttle Challenger exploded in midair on January 8. All crew members were killed im- mediately including the first civilian school teacher Christa McAuliffe. After numerous terrorists attacks on Americans throughout the world, Presi- dent Reagan made the deci- sion to bomb Libya. While the President made his speech to the world, US. troops were bombing specific Libyan targets. This received mixed reaction around the A ONCE IN A lifetime event hap- pened this year with the ap- pearance of Halley’s Comet. The comet comes around about every 75 years, and this year during spring break was the best time to view the comet before it moved on. Although it was not a spec- tacular showing, it was the first reappearance since April 21, 1910. 24 The Year of ’86 world, but most Americans expressed a renewed feeling of confidence in their leaders. Another terrifying event this year was the nuclear ex- plosion in a nuclear reactor in the Soviet Union. The Rus- sian people and the rest of the world were not aware of the danger until high levels of radiation were recorded in Sweden. Casualty figures given by TASS, the official news agency, listed 18 dead and more hospitalized. Another incident with cyanide-laced extra-strength Tylenol capsules occurred this year when several people died after taking the capsules which had apparently been tampered with. As a result of this additional incident, the Tylenol company came out with capulets, a new mixture THIS YEAR WASN’T the first time for a Tylenol scare, but this time the company did change the form of the medicine in hopes the incident wouldn’t happen again. Tylenol capsules are no longer on the market, but have been replaced with capulets, capsule- shaped, coated tablets. of tablet content in a capsule form. Another brand name had difficulties last summer. Coke, which has become a synonym for “soft drink,” changed its formula for the first time ever and marketed it under the name “New Coke.” The rebellion of Coca-Cola drinkers sent the company back to selling the original formula with a new name, “Coke Classic.” Even though the headlines were filled with tragedy, there was some good news throughout the year. While groups of singers got together to sing and raise money for various charities, Texans celebrated the 150th birthday of their in- dependence with Ses- quicentennial celebrations. As the school year closed, Texas Democratic governor Mark White was paired up i a battle with Republican op- ponent Bill Clements for the top state office. Also, during the first of May thousands of schoolteachers were receiving their results of the TECAT test. March 10 teachers statewide were required to take this competency test to keep their teaching cer- tificates. This was part of the controversial House Bill 724 that influenced teachers and ¥ students for the last two years. | Although each year has its highlights and big news splashes, this past school year seemed particularly eventful statewide, nationally and internationally. THE STATE CAPITAL in Austin was the Headquarters for the Texas Sesquicentennial com- mittee. This committee was in charge of organizing the various celebrations marking Texas’s 150th birthday. MILLIONS OF PEOPLE, along with the families of the seven crew members, watched the devastating explosion of the Challenger on January 8.

If you take away the talk between and during classes, pep rallies, notes to your best friend and dates for Friday night, you know, the real “‘essentiahelements” to high school life, what have you got? Academics. Governor Mark White and friends gave us “72” which called for tougher standards and concentrating more on the fundamentals. Teachers were fac- ed with the TECAT test and the anx- iety of “No Pass, No Pay”. And for the first time, juniors were required to take and pass an exit test in order to receive a diploma. DID YOUR MOM ever tell you where text books come from? If not, we’ll tell you. It’s the book room in the library. All the books are kept there during summer vacation and during the school year, all the extras just sit there waiting to be issued. So, now that you know where text books come from, don’t tell your mom who told you! However, Texas Education Laws didn’t change everything. Sopho- mores could be found skimming pools, cleaning light fixtures and mastering the art of fly swatting all to get an A from Mrs. Celia Pyle on their bug collections. Seniors, evident by their note card boxes and two packages of note cards, spent precious hours in the library researching and re-researching their chosen profession. And, of course, every English stu- dent could be found taking a “novel” approach (usually the night before the book test). Students this year were faced with more classwork, more homework and more strenuous requirements in the state-wide effort to get back to basics. Mr. Oscar L. Newton, a nationally known speaker for the life insurance industry and the guest speaker at the Rusk County Chamber of Com- merce’s 60th annual banquet, summ- ed it up when he said,“‘Excellence is a lofty and admirable goal; today it’s a one word synonym for survival because the age of mediocrity is dead.” Academics ge 27 28 Administrators return to class By Pam Garmon Once again HB 72 kept the administration busy with their hands full of new policies to implement and their eyes focused on what was coming next. The teacher evaluation procedures sent them back to the classroom to teach a lesson for observation.

Statewide testing held By Pam Garmon Many students think after they start a career they’ll final- ly be finished with tests — think again. This year there were two biggies, one for the juniors and one for the faculty! Juniors were required to take the TEAMS or Exit Test, which determined if they were eligible for a diploma after they met graduation requirements. In the first testing, 82 percent of the juniors passed the math and 90 percent passed English. “T wasn’t worried at. all, because you actually didn’t know what to expect,” said Ruwani Walgama before the test was given. For the first time, also, teachers had to go through some of the same apprehen- Larry Adair Science Deedy Adams English 30 g Testing sions over the TECAT test. Passing this test determined if they would keep their cer- tificates and eventually, jobs. Resentment was the most common reaction of the teachers before the test. “I think the test is an insult to the teaching profession, and it just is not right,” said Mr. Ronnie Hardin, counselor. The test was a competency exam which tested literacy. Overall the Exit Test was considered a good test to measure the _ students’ capabilities. But the TECAT had much controversy about its value to measure teachers’ abilities. JUNIOR VINCE HENSON hits the books during his English class in order to make the grade.

Six periods a day teachers hand it out. Do this, do that, finish this, turn in that. If that’s not enough, they really pile it on at the end of the period and call it homework. After school when you’ve gone by Larry G’s, picked up a snack at McDonalds, called all your friends and planned your wardrobe, shot a few baskets with a friend, listened to the four tapes you bor- rowed, had supper and watched a few T.V. shows, it’s time to hit the books. “From all the stuff I have to do after school, I usually don’t start my homework till about 8:30 p.m.,” said Kim Gray.

We won some and we lost some. And when we won, we celebrated. And when we lost, we suffered — and then celebrated. Individual athletes teamed up in football, tennis, golf, track, baseball and basketball to put the Mighty Lions on the scoreboard and raise the support of fellow classmates. According to area newspapers and the 10 o’clock news, our varsity foot- ball team came out of nowhere to win their zone and finish the season 10-0. Varsity track sent Patrick Powdrill, Gayvin Duffie and its 1600-meter relay team to Conroe. Finishing se- cond with 3:27.50, the 1600-meter relay team was able to advance to regionals. . “This is a good feeling. I’m glad we're going to regionals because we worked hard. I think we’ll do good if we try our best,” said sophomore Troy Tamplin. GIVING IT ALL she’s got, sophomore Nickey Brewster gets ready to land in the pit of the long jump. Nickey was also a part of the 800-meter relay team that ad- vanced to regionals. The girls track team, made up en- tirely of freshmen and sophomores. placed in seven events which ad- vanced them to regionals. These lady tracksters should burn up every track in the state by the time they are seniors. District competitors shouldn’t stand a chance when these girls get two or three more years experience. Acing the district championship, the tennis team beat out Athens and the women netters qualified for regionals. Angie King placed first in singles, while doubles team, Cindi Wade and Melanie Keitt also placed first. Leapin’ Lions gave Coach Brooks Dozier his 500 career victory, while, “base” -ically speaking, the varsity baseball team closed their district season with a 4-6 record. So, no matter how we look at it, it’s trite but true — it’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how you play the game — and we played our very best. And that’s worth celebrating.

Mr. D. Tamplin, who can be found at every game view- ing from the _ sidelines, thought that lack of injuries on the defense was the key to the ballgame. Although he was disappointed about the last game, from years of ex- perience, he said, ““That’s the way the game goes — you win some and you lose some.” Defensive Coach Ray Dowdy said he didn’t think it was a true reflection of the team. “People will remember the 48-7 loss in the playoffs to Sulphur Springs. This is an incentive for the juniors coming into the off season this year to work a little harder for another chance to go to the playoffs,” he said. The Lions made it to the playoffs in first place after defeating Palestine. For the past two seasons, Palestine had been a pain in the Lions’ neck. Both in ‘83 and ‘84, losses to the Wildcats kept Henderson out of the playoffs. The team entered the game undefeated with a 2-0 district record, while Palestine held a 1-1 record. Three was not their lucky number as the Lions sent them home with a 19-7 defeat. Taking individual honors for their season performances were Patrick Powdrill who was chosen state second team defensive back and Joseph Bradford who received state honorable menticn. Kelvin White and Bradford were named players of the year for the 8-AAAA District South Zone in the coaches annual All-District team sel- ections. White received the defensive player of the year honor while Bradford was named offensive player of the year.

It was a fight right down to the wire,” said David Johnson, wide receiver. Palestine was the antici- pated midnight ball because the Lions needed to win this game to determine the district outcome. The Wildcats brought big, bad Ivory Lee Brown who aver- aged over 100 yards rushing a game. Of the 271 yards against the Lions, Brown took 214 of them for himself. Despite the big yard-gainer Brown, ‘The Cinderella Team” took the victory 19-7. “The press led us to believe that Brown would be a lot tougher than he actually was,” said Blake Blackwell, linebacker. Despite all the predictions, the season didn’t have the traditional fairy tale ending since the Lions were defeated 48-7 by Sulphur Springs in bi-district action. ““We were thinking about next week and playing in Texas Stadium. Our minds weren’t on the Sulphur Springs game,” said Eric Bell, free safety. AAWRIGHT! FUMBLE!

They were good foot- ball players. Some _ didn’t have God-given talent and weren’t all that big and strong or all that quick, but they had worked hard in off season to develop themselves. They believed in themselves and the program and have made themselves good football players,“ he said. The other factor that helped this Senior Class lead 44 Seniors their team in an undefeated season was that they worked as a team. The team com- plimented each other in the offensive and defensive system. “This was a very unselfish, not greedy bunch of athletes,” Coach Watson said. “They are all team players and contribute any way they can.” On the offense there was quarterback Toby Moon, wide receiver Joseph Brad- ford, and flanker Patrick Powdrill in the skill positions. Gerald Roy, Stephen Sloan, David Perry, Bobby Zangarine and Dale Clark contributed on the offensive line. David Johnson as the backup wide receiver also did SeaSon) a good job. On defense, Kelvin White, Cedric Jones, Lewis An- thony, Roger Carpenter and Michael McKissic set the pace for the defensive units aggressiveness this year, Coach Watson added.

Ladies lack height, strong on teamwork By Kelvin Alexander At the beginning of school when Varsity Coach Greg Gooding picked his 15 ladies, who would eventually fill the 12 varsity spots available, he felt that because of their lack of height they would be lucky to break even for the season. However, the more the team worked out, the more strong points started showing themselves. Speed, in- telligence, desire and team- work became the backbone of a team that finished with a 17-9 season record. The coach said he feels that when returning varsity players are combined with a solid junior varsity and the 46 @ Lady Lions freshmen players coming up, the team will be a power to watch out for next season. Although it took every player to win this year, some of the more outstanding con- tributions were leading scorers Sue Williams and Diane Dudley and leading re- bounders Schannell Lane and Andrea Manning. Leading in assists were Jeanne Brooks and Manning, and in steals were Nicky Brewster and Brooks.

We were plagued by the ”No Pass, No Play‘ Rule throughout the season, but the girls adjusted well to this problem. Just having 8 to 9 players did not give us the depth I was accustomed to last year,” continued Coach Harrell. “The main reason the team did so well was their togetherness and hard work.” Throughout the season, the team focused on fundamen- tals and cutting down on turnovers,“ said Angela Page. ”As you can see it paid off with the team winning district with an overall record of 16-8.“ Warren said that she felt they did outstanding for the number of people they had and losing and gaining people throughout the season.

Coach Dozier died of a cerebral hemorrhage Feb. 24, afer an aneurysm ruptured one week earlier. The coach had just finished his thirty-fourth basketball season which was highlighted by his 500th career win. He had a career record of 505-423 and a 81-32 record here which started in 1982. Coach Dozier was well-liked and knew most of the students because he super- vised the cafeteria during all three lunches. He would send someone to the end of the line for cutting or rate a birthday song. If it were someone’s birthday, their friends would sing “Happy Birthday” to them. After the song, Coach Dozier would have a score written down on a napkin or a Coach Dozier leaves ) | ; | | | scrap of paper. The highest | score ever received was a three, but all eyes were turned on him at the end of each tune, anticipating his “score.” On the court, Coach Dozier | was a different person. “Once Dad stood up and yelled, and | the referee reminded him of the new rule that coaches. must stay seated,” recalls his daughter Nanda Dozier. “Later, on another call, Dad held a chair over his head to the the ref’s attention. ‘’m' still seated.’ he said.” A man of many talents, Coach Dozier’s expertise was not limited to the basketball court. Some of his best teaching came through his everyday words of concern, acts of kindness, stunts for fun, or just his friendly “Hello.” DURING A TIME out Coach Dozier designs a new play for the Lions as the varsity memebers look on at the Lufkin Tournament.

A disappointing loss for the Lions was against rival Jacksonville where the team lost 57-62. The game was not the only thing they lost, as mascot Tom Reed had his tail ripped off by the Jacksonville fans. Another big loss came against Carthage. The Lions had defeated the Bulldogs once earlier in district play, but the tide turned as the Lions lost 56-60. ““We should have won but Carthage just played better than we did,” District Varsity Scoreboard Result Opponent 47-45 Carthage 54-39 Athens 42-52 Palentine Jacksonville Chapel Hill Carthage Athens Palestine Jacksonville Chapel Hill 57-62 53-48 56-60 65-50 66-69 63-69 63-61 52 m Leapin’ Lions said Tim Vandegriff. The Lions still had hope for a playoff spot, but that ended when Palestine defeated the Lions 66-69. The Lions were down by one at the half, but the Wildcats just played a little better. “We played our best game all season against Palestine, but we didn’t play good enough. Free throws hurt us just like all season long,” said Patrick Powdrill. The Lions were playing for pride for the last two games. Jacksonville defeated the Lions and Chapel Hill lost to the Lions. Three Leapin’ Lions were named to the All-District team. Seniors Tres Dozier and Joseph Bradford were named first team, while Chris Jackson received honorable mention.

She only wished they could have made it to state. In the district meet, Lane finished second in the high jump with a leap of 5 feet 2 inches. The 1600-meter relay placed second with a best time of 4:41.39. Miller was second in the shot put with a distance of 33 feet 112 inches.

The victory earned the Lions an overall record of 9-16. Sophomore Conner Wade feels that the Lions played well despite the age and inex- perience of the team. “Most of the younger players got the experience they needed,” he said. Head Coach Skip Tamplin said that he felt that inex- perience was a problem for the team this year, but we also had some sophomores i: and juniors that had not had varsity experience,” Tamplin said. “We lost four of our district games this year by one run each, and the other games were lost by less than three runs. You lose a lot of one run games because of inexperience.” Coach Tamplin also said that ineligibility because of grades played a role this season. “Every six weeks we had a lineup change because we lost starters to grades. The first six weeks we lost three players, and when they came back, we lost three more,” he said. “ ONY FOREMAN GETS a base it during a game with the | sobcats. _— it A APA EAA PS Scoreboard 1 angst gg ecivconsteatel Varsity — District Opponent Carthage ..

Sports M 65 te “I'd like to be most popular because it means people think you’re nice enough to represent the school.” — Shannon Cain, sophomore. By Suzanne Moye C C ay I have your attention please,’ says the anonymous voice over the PA system. ‘““Nomina- tions for class favorites may be placed today during all three lunches.” Every year, students from every grade turn out to nominate their fellow classmates for most beautiful, most handsome, most popular and best all-around making this election among the highest in student participation. However, this year we’ve done the Honors section a little differently. We’ve tried to add some variety and present things in a fresh, exciting way. For starters, we felt academic achievements, outstanding musicians and various contest participants deserved individual recognition. JUST AFTER BEING announced as Drum Major for 1986-87 at the Band Banquet, Junior Angela Perry gets a con- gratulations hug. Angela was voted on by band members after presenting a speech. Variety of honors recognized here “I think people who are good at something or who win a contest should be recognized so that other students will know that they are good at something,” said senior Jeff Anderson. Next, we’ve done feature stories on individuals in order to give you more insight into, perhaps, what makes these people strive for success or per- sonal satisfaction. “There are so many people I don’t know and I like to read stories or see pictures of people from school, so that maybe I’ll recognize them the next time I see them,” said freshman Travis Simpson. And on the more glamorous side, we’ve included Homecoming Queen and Valentine King and Queen. So, after many hours of planning, picture shooting, writing captions and trying to find story angles, we’ve finally pulled all the outstanding folks together.

Voters use own guides in choosing favorites By Pam Garmon “Who will I nominate for most beautiful or most popular?” is one of the ques- tions asked by students dur- ing favorite elections. Choosing most beautiful or hand some is usually done on the basis of great looks. Regardless of race, personali- ty, or grade, most beautiful and handsome are chosen by the “eye.” Careful thought is taken when voting for most popular and best all-around. Students base their choices on students who are active in _ extra- curricular activities, who are out-going, and have a good personality. “I base my decis- ion on their attitude toward others and how they treat CHOSEN AS BEST All-Around, Tom Reed and Diane Dudley are in- volved in a variety of activities.

Diane has performed on the basketball court for four years as a Lady Lion. people,”’ Johnson. Each voter has his own definition of “a good per- sonality.” Some think it is treating everyone fairly all the time. Others consider it as being sincerely friendly with everyone. And some define it as having an even disposition most of the time. “A person who treats everyone fairly and speaks to others has a good personali- ty,” said Tammy Neal. Voters have their own standards for nominating for honors and few are surprised when nominees are an- nounced, because they have voted for the person they feel most deserving. said Phyllis Honors m@ 69 MOST HANDSOME NOMINEES share an interest in music.

Classic honors continue to have place in book By Pam Garmon It’s Classic, it’s traditional, and it’s out of style in many schools our size, but we like it and plan to keep it. The favorites, as we call them, are labeled super- latives, celebrities, kings and queens or Mr.’s and Misses by other schools and are marked as outdated and old fashioned by yearbook judges. So what if we appear behind the times? Traditions are those things that are re- 70 Wi Nominees repeated year after year, and we feel it’s important to con- tinue them. What we do try to ac- complish is to avoid “the same old thing” look and pre- sent the favorites in different ways. By doing this, we can continue tradition and main- tain the style of the book also. All student-body elected honors are important, and we congratulate the winners. Favorites, kings and queens, celebrities — by any name you're classic in our book.

Honors Mi aL T2. Hi SEWho’s Who By Pam Brown The process of choosing Who’s Who is sometimes a hard task for the teachers of each department who select them. The students who are chosen must meet certain standards with scholarship being of primary considera- tion.

Selecting Who’s Who hard job for teachers “My choice for Who’s Who would have to be a person who is_ kind, considerate, understanding, obedient, and one who is able to com- municate with adults as well as teenagers,” said Mrs. Ker- mis Gooden, homemaking teacher. The students who were selected for each divis- ion are kept secret until the end of the year. Then they are revealed along with favorites and other honors.

The guidelines include _ scholar- ship, school service, extra- curricular activities, coopera- tion, attitude and attendance.

JENEE HOUSTON RECEIVED recognition for being a National Merit Scholarship Finalist. Academic achievers big winners By Pamela Garmon There are not a lot of peo- ple around to cheer when they win, but those who excel academically also chalk up victories for themselves and their school. Some people think that having the highest grade point average requires a per- son to be at home studying all the time, but Cindi Wade is not like that at all. She’s a member of the First Baptist Church and of the tennis team. “I am a natural pro- crastinator and sometimes this makes it difficult for me to do my best so I always have to push myself. I have always felt that though school work is very important, I must make time for friends and fun,” said Cindi. Monnie McGee, salu- tatorian, is also active in extracurricular activities. She is a drill team lieutenant, a member of United Methodist Fellowship and has a job in an accountant’s office. “At the first of the year, I felt pressure from my parents, then my dad told me that he was proud of me just as I was,” said Monnie. “Also if I did nothing but study, I would go crazy,” she added. Another academic honor went to Jeneé Houston who was chosen from one-half of one percent of the population to be a finalist in the Na- tional Merit Scholarship Testing. “I really didn’t have to work harder to achieve this, but what helped me was learning things through the years and retaining those things,” she said. Other students rewarded for academic achievements were the honor graduates. Twenty students were chosen to be honor graduates out of 201 seniors. One honor graduate, Bobby Zangarine, said he had to make a few sacrifices. “It was one of my goals to be an honor graduate because it made me work toward mak- ing better grades,” he said. Many students who excel in grades and schoolwork wait four years for recogni- tion. This may come in the form of scholarships or special designation at gradua- tion. While most feel the recognition is nice, they also emphasize the knowledge they’ve acquired in getting these awards.

And following in her older sister’s footsteps is junior representative Cathi Wade — Wait — yea, Cathi Wade.” Sounds pretty complicated, huh? But this year Cathi, valedictorian Cindi’s younger sister, was the junior representative, the member of the Junior Class with the highest grade point average. Sharing the same _ last name and top grade point average is about the only things these two gals have in common. “I feel that Cindi and I are two totally different people,” Sisters win highest honors scholarship as a result. said Cathi. Cindi agrees. “We are individuals; and often, people find it hard to believe that we are sisters because we are so opposite. Being only one year apart is the source for a few pro- blems for Cathi. ‘Many teachers expect me to be ex- actly like Cindi in my behavior and work, yet I’m not,” she said. Being so closely related in age does have its advantages. Cathi miraculously becomes a sweet, loving sister to Cindi when the homework assignments that are difficult to understand come her way. “Because I’ve had lots of Cathi’s work, I don’t mind tutoring every once in a while,” said Cindi.

Pat for President By Amy Lebeck Being president of his class for the past three years has given Patrick Powdrill a chance to prove he is a capable and popular leader. Early in the school year, when class officers were elected, Patrick and Monnie McGee tied for president, and a run-off election had to take place. “I wasn’t worried about it one way or the other because I figured the seniors would select the one they felt best suited for the job,” This position has given him a chance to become more responsible; also, he feels honored to represent his class for so long. “I feel it is a great honor to be class president because it is the highest posi- tion wean G elt 1S semMoOst prestigious,” said Patrick. As well as being a respected leader, Patrick has also shown his capabilities in various activities. In football he was chosen to the All- district, All-East Texas and ALL-state teams. GWENDOLYN L.

By Amy Lebeck “T can’t wait until I’m a senior” is what a lot of dreamy-eyed under-classman say. When the “big year” finally rolls around, the seniors have different views about senior life. Many students look at senior life as taking it easy. According to Tonya Tarrant this is not true. “There is no way my senior year could have been what I expected. It’s more work, but it has been fun,” said Tonya. To many seniors, their year flies by. “It takes you a semester to realize you are a senior. By the time you do realize it, it goes by so fast,” said Shanna Pirtle. Seniors take advantage of the seniority that they aquire by being the oldest on cam- pus. “Senior life is more than I expected, we have more seniority over everyone else. The classes are about the same. I like the seniority,” said Peggy Smith. Is senior life what it’s cracked up to be? It depends on the person, because everyone has his own way of dealing with that final year. “ON YOUR MARK, get set, go!”’ Senior Kelvin Alexander gets a quick ride down through the halls after school to relieve stress and tension aquired dur- ing the day.

Let it SLIDE By Suzanne Moye The symptoms range from victim to victim, however, the disease is always the same: Incurable Senioritis. “I’ve become totally bored with most of my classes,” confess- ed Tres Dozier. Some common signs _ in- clude daydreaming or doodl- ing in class, forgetting or claiming to forget homework, skipping and leaving all books, papers and English assignments in the floor board of the car over the weekend. The near terminal cases live only for the weekends and during the week, remain in a zombie — like state. Usually attacked during the twelfth and (thank goodness) final year, everyone had a different ex- planation for contacting this contagious disease. “I’m just ready to get out of here and go play football in Nacogdoches,” exclaimed Patrick Powdrill. “Graduation is the only thing on my mind. I just do what I have to in order to get by. I don’t do my homework and stuff like I used to,” ad- mitted another victim, Bobby Zangarine. Yet another excuse for this disease was explained by Suzanne Keeling. “I’m look- ing forward to having more freedom, and the idea of not having to go to the same class every day is wonderful.” But, whether it’s a mild case or an extreme one, seniors await the sure cure ... May 30th. SENIORS ‘86 SENIORS ‘86 SENIORS ‘86 SENIORS ‘86 Seniors @ 87 HIGH cost of graduation shoots HOLES in wallet By Renee Ross For most seniors, the last year of high school is the most crucial. Between grades and extra-curricular ac- tivities, seniors have their hands full. However, that is no comparison to the high cost of graduation. For most students, letter jackets, senior pictures, in- vitations, class rings and ren- ting caps and gown are neccessities. Senior pictures averaged around $100 to $150. But in- SENIOR RONNIE COOK is one step closer to graduation as Deb- bie Chapman, class reporter, records his information for caps and gown. vitations varied from $40 to $75, depending on the quani- ty and extras. The only thing that a senior doesn’t have to buy is the cap and gown. These are rented to each graduating senior at the end of the year, and, once again, the pocket book is $15 flatter. Underclassmen shouldn’t get distraught. It’s true that a lot of money and time are in- vested in being a senior, but as they say, “You only go ‘round once...” LINDA FOBBS, LISA Harper and Belinda Neal make absolute- ly sure they have received all the information they need about their invitations.

A popular way to spend Spring Break is to hit the ski slopes. Becky Rumbo spent her vacation in Copper Mountain, Colorado with the First Baptist Church. “I had a lot of fun trying to make my feet go somewhere they didn’t want to go. I came back with as many bruises, as I did memories,” said Becky. Traveling to foreign coun- tries has become a common “THANK YOU FOR shopping K-Mart.” If you go down to your friendly K-Mart store, you will find senior Peggy Smith saying that phrase to every customer. Peggy is one of the many students who worked during Spring Break. SENIORS ‘86 SENIORS ‘86 SENIORS ‘86 SENIORS ‘86 ALICIA LASHAWN GREEN — Pep Squad Manager 11,12; Drill Team Manager 11,12; STEVEN T.

Dane Johnson, senior spent his break in Europe. “It was a cultural experience and a chance to see a lot of the history we read about in English. I would like to go back, because I regretted not seeing Wimbleton and Stonehenge,” Dane said. While some students were out of town, many stayed home and worked. Penny Davis used her break to get in extra working hours. “TI wanted to work so I could have money for my senior trip,” said Penny. Spring Break is a needed vacation from school and comes at a good time. The days between January 1 and June 1 seem to get longer and longer and longer. Seniors Turn the radio on By Suzanne Moye Every morning before school, students could be found sitting in their cars talking to friends and getting their last ear full (of music) before running to first period as the bell rang at 8:15. But, after school was a dif- ferent story. Students scampered to their cars, pushed “play” on the cassette player and sped off to McDonald’s for a soft drink and fries. No matter where a person’s interest centered, the world of entertainment promised something for everyone! Whether watching M-T'V or favorite songs on the radio, students tried to use their free time to listening to their the fullest extent possible.

Let’s go to the show “The Money Pit.” For those who preferred a mixture of drama and humor, “The Col- or Purple”, nominated for eleven academy awards, suited their taste. Many teens By Suzanne Moye “Two for ‘St. Elmo’s Fire’ please.” But, of course, the snack bar is looming in the distance and besides, a movie just wouldn’t be a movie without a soft drink ($1.25) and a large popcorn ($1.50). So, now that you’ve only been there five minutes and spent almost $11, you and your date hunt two empty seats while slowly walking down the dark, carpeted aisle. This was a typical scene on Friday and Saturday nights as students left the pressures of school and homework behind in order to just get some good ’ole “R and R.” “I like to go to the show and just have fun. After all, what are weekends for?” said senior Angela Lutz. This year the movie in- dustry offered us many op- tions. In the comedy depart- ment, there was “Gung Ho” with Michael Keaton and enjoyed “Pretty in Pink” with Molly Ringwald and featured groups such as INXS, and OMD. The best picture, according to the academy awards com- mittee, was “Out of Africa” with Meryl Streep and Robert Redford. It offered adventure, beautiful scenery and a true picture of life in Kenya, Africa. But, what ever you turned out to see, the movie makers, producers and writers offered a variety of flicks to suit just about anyone. SKIMMING THE PAPER for entertainment, Tim Vandegriff checks out the movie section. On Friday and Saturday night many students and their dates traveled to Kilgore, Longview or even Tyler to catch the latest movie.

While many students plan on attending college, some prefer to join the military, get married, or work full time. According to Mrs. Linda Smith, counselor, it depends on the individual whether or not to choose the college route. Mrs. Smith said, “It takes being in the real world to make the right choice for you. What we set out to do may not be our same goal in a couple of years.” Jessie Copeland has decided her direction and is headed to Mrs. Wade’s Fashion Merchandi- MONNIE McGEE, DISCUS- SES her grade point average with Ms. Pat McFerrin, asstistant principal.

Kelvin Alexander plans on attending a mortuary school, Common Wealth, in Houston. “T want to go to a college to learn a profession so I can start my own business in a big city,” said Kelvin. Time is running out. Whether it means going to college, joining the military, working full time or getting married, seniors are busily making plans for after graduation.

Even though English, government, and electives keep seniors carry- ing home the books, there is some fun among all that drudgery. Spending the day at the lake has become a popular “after school” event in warmer weather. “We go to the lake and ski, swim or just hang around and talk,” said Tom Reed. Taking a day off on the weekend and going shopping is many girls’ favorite pastime. Hours after hours can rush by spending money, window shopping or just walking around malls. “I usually go shopping when I need something, but I do like to just shop at random,” said Suzanne Moye. Another traditional event for seniors is senior parites. “T really didn’t know what to expect, but it’s just like any other party just talking and eating,” said senior Sharon Partin. Every year there are more invitations than anyone Seniors let off steam at lake, mall, almost anywhere can accept. Besides having a great time with friends, the preparation for these parties can become very time con- suming. Most of the parties are given by friends or relatives in honor of the senior. Baked potato parties, ice cream sundae parties, Sunday luncheons, nice din- ners or pool parties are some of the traditional festivities. Being a senior means more than one big party. But it cer- tainly is one of the lighter sides of the final year. SENIORS TONYA TAR- RANT and Carla Grafton get in on the gossip while spen- ding time at the lake. Just talking or laying out can be very relaxing when the pressure is heavy. JOE DARRYL POLK — Fball 9; Bsktball 9,10; DECA 12; FHA 9,10,11; Who’s Who — Art.

Whether it is freshman, sophomore, junior or senior, there are special memories or fun times that make that year the best. “We did more things together our freshman year. We'll never forget that year,” said seniors Peggy Smith and Susan Williams. The sophomore year is a little easier on some people. ‘‘My sophomore year was the best because I had gotten to know the school, and teachers but especially all the people,” said Sharon Brown.

Finally, for most ambitious folks, the senior year puts the icing on the cake. The most looked- forward-to event in the senior year is graduation. “My senior year has been the best,” said Debbie Chapman. So, even though favorite years may vary from stu- dent to student, the good times and memories will remain always.

I don’t wanna ride the bus since I’m in high school and ll,“ begged Franklin Freshman. ”I told you I have to pick up my mom’s geraniums from Green Thumb School. Leave me alone!“ barked Steve Senior. On the first day of school it began. As juniors and seniors glided into the parking lot and situated their shiny (and not so shiny) cars, the freshmen and sophomores sheepishly lumbered out of their mother’s Dodge station wagon or, worse yet, the school bus. However, some seniors also had to deal with the frustration of being car-less. Tim Vandegriff rode to school with John Culley and bummed rides off other friends, while Lewis Anthony caught a ride with whomever was available. No matter how seniors (and underclassmen) got to school, feelings of exaspera- tion and frustration were ex- perienced by those who didn’t have their own wheels. However, those who didn’t have sports practice or a deadline to finish for the newspaper after school said they didn’t mind giving the car-less a lift.

Seniors m 103 Vote Speaking at ballot box privilege of 18-year-olds By Renee Ross Eighteen-year-olds get a taste of the real world and find it means more than get- ting their face turned around on their drivers license. Becoming 18 means one’s no longer a minor, legally, he’s an adult. It’s no big deal to some because all it means is they can gain admittance to places they were restricted from before. Registering to vote is one of the first responsibilities. In government, Mrs. Carolyn Parker, department head, provides voter registration cards for her classes as well as offering to turn them in. “I feel that if the student starts voting now, he will take an interest in politics and vote in every election,” she said. Although most seniors take the cards, many admit to not filling them out or voting VOTING IN SCHOOL elections gives students a chance to see what it is like to vote in state or national elections as a registered voter. even if they did register. “Even though I am registered, I slept too late and never did go vote,” said senior Debbie Chapman. Even voters have a difficult time with some elections. “I went to vote, but it was no big deal. Everything was un- contested,” said Stephen Sloan. So registered voter or not, it’s still one of the first responsibilities of becoming 18. CINDI KAY WADE — Bsktball 9; Tennis 9,10,11,12; Jr JETS 10; JETS 11,12; NHS 11,12; Who’s Who — Science.

These awards are fun, but how do they affect those chosen? Neatest winner, Renee Ross said, “I felt like I had to dress up because peo- ple expected it of me. It’s becoming a have to instead of a want to.” Some Hi-Life Poll seniors 106 M@Hi-Life Poll Hi-Life Poll winners have identifying characteristics were surprised about the award they received. “I really was not aware of the fact that people thought I was funny.

I realized I was graduating,” said Becky Rumbo. Not only did the seniors realize that this was the last time to be together and have fun, but the parents found themselves emotional also. “I really enjoyed it because I saw my daughter and her friends that she grew up with all together on the stage for one last performance,” said Mrs. Sandra Hodges. Graduation However, the banquet wasn’t all tears. The students that took part in the tradi- tional Senior Skit playing the parts of their teachers, as well as the audience, had a lot of laughs. “Tt was a blast portraying our favorite teachers and not-so-favorite teachers,” said Tom Reed. Mrs. Tami Boatwright and Mrs. Pud Patterson were the producers of the skit. “We only had two weeks to get down the lines and perfect it. I think we did a wonderful job, and the kids are great,” said Mrs. Boatwright. The awards to the seniors were one of the most rewar- ding parts of the evening. The amount of the scholar- ship money given was over $25,000. Scholarships from $200 to $12,000 were awarded to seniors. The highlight of the presentation was the $12,000 T. J. Plunkett scholarship given to Bobby Zangarine. Another unique presentation was Valedic- torian Cindi Wade giving the traditional key of Knowledge to her sister, junior represen- tative Cathi Wade. The show ended on an emotional note when Miss Nanda Dozier sang “Friends” dedicated to all the seniors. Even though the Senior Banquet was the next to last formal gathering of the Senior Class of ’86, the memories will last forever.

Seniors last day of school is marked with anticipation By Kelvin Alexander David Perry It’s Thursday, May 30. Two exams are left to be taken on the last day of school for the Senior Class. Tomorrow is graduation day. The anticipation and build- up exceeds that of Christmas to a child. Thoughts vary among students after the last frantic weeks of parties, invitations, gifts, banquets and keeping grades up too. “Tt scares me to think that I’m entering the real world, and I have to make it on my own,” said Tonya Tarrant. “T am just waiting to see if I passed senior English,” was the reaction of Jay Guin. “Tt’s been an exciting year, and I’m looking forward to what the future will bring,” said Alicia Green. “T’m ready to start a life of my own by getting out and getting a job,” said Diane Dudley. “T’m so excited to get out of school, I can hardly sleep,” said Lisa Holliman . “T’m happy because I feel like I’m about to start the first step of a_ successful career,” said Mike Meadows. The day finally ends with the sixth period exam, and it’s all over.

They talk to their friends about each other. They talk on the phone about each other. They smile at each other. They talk to each other. FINALLY they have a date. Who’s going with whom and where next weekend is one of the best known facts in school. (Why don’t teachers ever ask this on a test?) Sometimes one date is all it takes, and sometimes it leads to a longer relationship vary- ing from two weeks to two years. One of the _ interesting variations on the dating game happens at the beginning of each school year. The older guys check out all the new, younger girls while the older girls are doing the same thing | with the younger boys. “It’s not the idea of her being younger, it’s just her being herself,” said Gayvin Duffie. Most real dating goes on during the weekend with week nights used for homework, telephone calls, basketball games, etc. Some do go out on week nights though as long as it doesn’t affect their schoolwork. “Dating on week nights doesn’t affect my schoolwork | any more than working on | school nights,” said Tammi Anthony. Spending an entire week on one assignment would be a real drag, but spending that same amount of time working on a date for the weekend is time well spent. | Whatcha Think?

Although the number of students getting rings has decreased over the last few years, there are still many who purchase this piece of traditional jewelry. Class ring memento of high school years By Vista Warren Class rings often become mementoes of a_ person’s younger days. They are a reminder of high school and the memories it holds for each individual. “Class rings are a symbol of prestige for upper classmen. It is also something a guy can give his girlfriend as a symbol of his devotion or his claim to that girl,” said Jeff Griffin. “T think class rings are special because of the sen- timental value the tradition holds in later years,” said Tammy Morris. The rings will eventually bring back different memories for each individual who chose to buy one. Though they may later be taken off for wedding rings or fashionable jewelry, the owners usually keep them for nostalgic reasons.

Getting grounded is No. 1 punishment “You’re grounded this weekend!” “Hand me those car keys!” “No phone calls for one week, young lady!” Punishment — no one likes it, but everyone gets it at one time or another in one form or another. The “sentences” handed down vary but usually come after a lengthy speech — or two if both parents are home. Some students say they are disciplined the same way every time. “My parents always ground me — every time. I can count on it,” said Lance Medford. By far, the most common punishment is getting grounded. “With me, I get grounded from different things like the telephone, go- ing out, or using the car,” said Tammi Anthony. The worst possible punish- ment varies with students and their situation at the time. “Getting really ground- ed is the worst — no car, no phone, no boyfriend, no ac- tivities, no nothing,” said Jennifer McMillin. On the other hand, Lesa Blackwell says the worst punishment is getting grounded from the car and having to drive the truck. “They” say that punish- ment should fit the situation. Why can’t it just be short and simple like the good old days when a quick spanking took care of everything? At least you could still go out on the weekend. fl ‘Whatcha Think?

Younger classmates, the juniors, under the supervision of math teacher Mrs. Carol Scoggins, teacher representative over the prom, decides the plans of the prom. Junior classmates plan the prom under the direction of the Junior Class Officers. Plans for the prom are not as easy a job as everyone thinks. No one know s the hard work that these people go through. Just think about all the responsibilities those students have, coming up with the perfect theme for the senior students, taking the time to buy decorations and put them up. No one but those people know how dif- ficult that task is. It’s worth it though when the night finally arrives and everyone oohs and ahhs over how beautiful everything is.

Exit Test causes worry, |, turns out “No big deal’ Vista Warren “We’re, No 1!” How we like to yell that for almost any occasion. This year the juniors were to be the No. 1, first to take TEAMS, commonly called the Exit Test, to see if they would be eligible for a diploma after meeting graduation requirements. Being No. 1 is not so bad when you know what you're up against. But since it was a first, students, teachers and administrators were all in a fog about the content and the difficulty of the exam until Oct. 1-2 when it was finally given. “T tried to make sure my students had a_ working knowledge of the basics,” said Mrs. Terry Bandy, math teacher. After this test most students could relax because 82 percent mastered the math section and 90 percent | mastered the English. Even | were | majority of | before the _ results known, the juniors felt confident their results would meet the standards. “Tt was easy. I don’t really think there is any need for | it,” said Kristi Nelson. Being No. 1 is not always the thrill it’s made out to be, especially in a situation like this. But this Junior Class helped charter the course for classes to follow so that even though they won’t be first to take the exam, they may be the first with 100 percent mastery. Then being No. 1 will be the thrill it should be.

Drivers license key to freedom for sophs By Lance Gray “Drivers License,” the magic words. Most sophomores are eligible and eager to get theirs and have waited forever for that six- teenth birthday. Hitching rides with those that already have their own wheels can be aggrevating and nerve-racking for both the hitcher and the “hitchee.” “Getting my license made me feel great; I felt free,” said Teresa Brown. Unfortunately, not everyone turns 16 his sophomore year — poor babies. Those with summer birthdays have to go the whole year wheelless. “Not | getting my license until the } summer is a big disappoint- ment,” said Jennifer Warlick. “Summer, Ye-Ha!” Some students jump the gun and start to drive before they have a license. “My parents know I don’t have a license, but when they don’t | feel like going to town they send me,” said one student. “Sweet Sixteen” has a lot | of meanings, but the main one sophomores associate with that magic number is those magic words, “Drivers License!” Roderick Brown Ronny Brown Teresa Brown Jon Brunner Kevin Bryan Lance Bryan Tamra Bryan Denise Bundrick Vickie Bundrick Penny Burke Shannon Cain Hamish Cameron Andy Carlilie Steven Carroll Marcy Chaney Kevin Childers Bobby Clark “Whatcha Think? — How does it feel to get your : -_driver’s license? _ Patrick Clark Arlene Cleaver “T felt like partying forever!” | Jon Brunner Amy Cochran Clint Collins — “Tt made me feel free; with no : strings.” , ‘Becky Black tt fade me foel more respected CR oars courtney and i responsible.” os Nathaniel Cozart : . _ Teresa Burbank : “TI got to go anywhere I wanted and got home when I drove up in : tne driveway.” : gt ; Daniel Craword | Melinda Miller i we “Tt felt t great; I felt free!

The bugs had to be classified according to name, phylum and economic effect. Bug collections give sophs creepy feelings By Lance Gray Bugs collections are proj- ects that most sophomores hate. “Bugs are the grossest things I have ever touched in my life. YUCKIE !” said Angelica Page. Bug collections consisting of the names and classifica- tion of 50 insects, are re- quired for most sophomore biology students. “There aren’t 50 bugs in this whole state!” said Arlene Cleaver, who had difficulty finding her quota. Beatles, moths and flies are the main things that students have on their minds before the “Big Grade” is recorded. Students having problems catching all their insects, often ask friends to help. Some even get professional | help. Dr. Billy Wayne Irwin, veterinarian, admitted chas- ing a bug in the Wal-Mart parking lot for a sophomore friend. Bugs are yuckie to some and not so bad to others, Then there are those who | don’t give a flip.

THE BIG- After school cartoons relaxing to teenagers By Lance Gray Although the sophomores feel they are almost grown and mature enough to handle anything, some are still little kids at heart when they race home and turn on the tube to watch Bugs Bunny, Elmer Fudd, or Sheera. Even though students watch cartoons after they get out of school, some are so crazy about cartoons that they will wake up early on Saturday morning to catch a few giggles. “Smurfs is the cutest little show during the whole Satur- day morning series,” said Shanese Jones. A lot of people do watch cartoons, but some students don’t get anything out of them “Cartoons have no morals and are not educa- tional at all,” said Meshia Haynes. But many view them as an hour’s trip into Never-Never Land where they can trance out and relax after a hard day at school. ‘Whatcha Think? ‘Who’s your favorite cartoon | character and why? “Donald Duck, because I can im- itate him.’’ ‘‘Bugs Bunny, because he’s a very sarcastic little bunny.

Spirited sophs yell loudest in pep rallies By Lance Gray Pep rallies were a lot of fun for the whole student body because everyone got out of class, but the sophomores were the ones who really got into the spirit of things. “The sophomores yelled all of the time,” said Deana Manck, junior cheerleader. The spirit stick was a ma- jor award in each pep rally given to the class who yelled V-I-C-T-O-R-Y as loud as they could. “IT would have given the. sophomores the spirit stick every time,” said Pam Brown, sophomore cheerleader. “And I’m not saying that just because I’m a _ sophomore, either.” Freshmen at pep rallies just look around and try to get the “feel” of things. But the next year, those freshmen observers turn into an en- thuiastic, uninhibited cheer- ing squad all their own in the south end of the bleachers. : ELECTED MOST REPRESEN- TATIVE for the Sophomore Class were Conner Wade, Elaine Franklin, Amy Whetstone, Brent Beauchamp, Julie Melton and LaMarcus Hicks. 128 @ McM-Re Warrick Neal Willie Neal Anna Newberry Matt Newcomb Brian Nichols Shawn Norman Tonya Overhultz Angelica Page Marcia Pennington Suzanne Pharr Jaques Pollard Joe Pool Shane Pool Scott Powell Jeff Powers Gina Price Tiffany Price Susan Ramsey Johnie Ratcliff Monica Reese Jimmy Reeves CLASS OFFICERS ELECTED in the Sophomore Class were Melinda Soape, reporter; Shawn Norman, vice president; Lynn Scoggins, secretary; Kelly Brady, treasurer; and Brent Beauchamp, president.

However, some have bad habits that often cause friends to become enemies and enemies to become even worse enemies. People do or say little things, habitually, that ir- ritate the dickens out of the people around them. “People who talk with their mouth open while they are eating is GROSS!” said Amy Hand. Not all bad habits are physical. Some people have the bad habit of constant put-downs. “I hate it when people lie to me or try to lower my self-respect,” said Doug Drake. | Procrastination is another bad habit by many of us, We're always going to do it tomorrow. “I usually put o my outside reading book assignment until just a fe days before the test,” sai Craig Robbins. .

Frosh face big schoo! with varied emotions By Susan Perry Going from top dog to underdog: one of the biggest worries expressed by _ the freshmen who had _ heard “horror stories” of high school. “I was worried about the seniors; I figured they would pick on me a lot,” said Keith Brightwell. Others were concerned about not knowing anyone but their group. “My biggest fear was not knowing anyone except freshmen. At middle school, we knew just about everyone,” said Angie Tieken. These concerns are normal reactions to being in a new place. This was Angie Howeth’s biggest worry, while Felisha Standard was concerned about being ac- cepted as well as finding her way around the campus. The classes with the scar riest reputations were algebra and English according to Tim Brady and Jeff Paterson, wh were worried about these in in particular. : Stepping into the unknowal is often a frightening ex- perience and one common to freshmen. As they look back over the year, most of them will agree, “It really wasn’t’ that bad.” With high school comes a lot of pressures from teachers, friends and family. “Peer pressure was one of my biggest worries and also whether or not people would like me, ” said Trisha Gaines.

Freshmen reluctant to run in elections By Susan Perry “Elections for class officers will be held in front of the cafeteria during all three lunches for all registered voters,” the announcer on the P.A. says. It seems as if we vote on everything from officers, most popular, most athletic to most representative. There always seems to be quite a few upper classmen who sign up to run in the class officer elections, but freshmen shy away. They seem hesitant to run when all they have to do is put their name on the ballot, “T don’t run because I don’t, think I would win” was the reason Jason Searcy gave for staying out of the contest. Maybe as they learn the system they will get more in- to the swing of things. “I like) it, but I just don’t want to run,” said Tammy Lamance. | High school is full of new experiences that hit all at once, and it takes a while to “climatize” to this new en- vironment.

She gets you there and then starts in, ‘Where will I pick you up? What time should I be here?’ It’s just terrible!” said Amy Chapman, who also has a teacher-parent to chauffeur her to school and home again. Parents probably aren’t too fond of carrying kids around either. “Since I’m a teacher here, it doesn’t bother me having to bring Jason f school. In fact, it’s kind ¢ nice having some company But back in the summe when I had to drive way wy here just to bring him to foot ball practice, it was a lot 0 trouble.

Anna Mondello, junior. Having a familiar face at high school sure helps. Big brother, sis help smooth way for frosh By Susan Perry Entering high school is scary enough, but some for- tunate freshmen have a crutch to lean on in the form of a big brother or sister. Though much of the time this relationship can be ex- plosive at home, it’s a dif- ferent story at school. “Hav- ing my big brother Cleve here really helped me get to know people,” said Jill Jimerson. On the homefront, how- ever, relationships change. It seems harder to agree on things such as what to watch on T.V. who’s going to wear what and, of course, what to do for the weekend. One of the major argu- ments around the house is the chores. “You do it!” “No, you do it!” It goes back and forth until mom steps in to solve the problem by telling them that if they don’t solve the problem and quick, then she will. She usually solves it by taking away the phone or the weekend. : Arguments may abound at home, but school brings a completely different attitude between big brothers and sisters. “It helps to have Shannon and Teresa around because the other upper classmen know them. That keeps me from getting griped at,” said Tracie Scarborough.

Freshmen Mindy McGee and Misti Horton get extra time by bringing their lunch. Sophomore John Bruner, needs a heartier meal and chooses the lunch line. School has few bugs still to be ironed out By Susan Perry School, our home away from home. It feeds us, teaches us, and sometimes, really bugs us — just like home. Teenagers need regular, frequent feedings, so the sub- ject of food is of vital impor- tance. “The lunch period is too short, the cafeteria is too crowded, and the lines are too long. Besides, it seems like you wait all day before eating,” said Cord Lee who has a typical teenage appetite. Classes are held in two dif- ferent buildings, the Electives Building and the Academic building. “Having classes in two different buildings and only five minutes between classes gives me a lot of run- ning to do,” said John Green. Sitting in class for 60 minutes listening to lectures, taking notes, or just trying to stay awake can become try- ing. Learning may be good for us, but that doesn’t change the fact that one classroom hour can last forever. “The classes are too long. I think they should be about 30 minutes,” said Diana Harris, | one of many freshmen who. find it difficult to sit still. Although our home away from home has its advan- tages, there are a few bugs that still need to be worked out.

Organizations add ., excitement to school By Suzanne Moye rom flags to Future Farmers, students were involved in ac- tivities which required time outside regular school hours, and they often came early or stayed late to perfect skills. Students involved in extra- curricular activities spent anywhere from one to five hours a week outside regular class hours on their interests. Usually the extra hours didn’t affect schoolwork, but students had to maintain at least a 70 average. Time and responsibility also had to be rear- ranged to accommodate hectic schedules. Some organizations began their year early. The Student Council started planning Homecoming a few weeks before school opened, and the result was a first class Spirit Week and half-time activities for the stu- dent body and Lions’ fans. Band students also got an early start as they ended the summer on a warm note by marching and playing their DRAMA CLUB MEMBERS Curt Sim- mons and Wendy Langhorne, along with John Glenn and Shanna Pirtle, drama students, practice for UIL One Act Play Competition which was held in Carthage. The group presented ‘“‘Phaedra’’ to the judges, but did not place. However, junior Shannon Shankle was named to the AIl- Star Cast. way through mid-August heat. Flag corps, drill team, cheerleaders, twirlers, yearbook and newspaper staffers also started early with various camps at Texas universities and colleges. Dedication to after hour activities came from personal interests or plans for the future. For some, the activity was related to career plans and goals. Johnny Thornley, a member of FFA, has ambitions to own a small ranch. While Tony Deck, also a FFA member, plans to attend East Texas State University and have a double major in agricultural business and animal science. Participation in club activities had its ups and downs. The dedicated few involved in school organizations soon discovered that they had less time for MTV and telephones. However, no matter how strenuous the work-outs, rehearsals or practices were, students benefited from them and were tem- porarily rescued from a little schoolwork. Organizations 144 a Yearbook, Newspaper Publication staffs live with deadlines By Lance Gray “Hey y’all — let’s sign up for yearbook or newspaper staff so we can have donuts and Cokes and run the halls and leave campus!” This prospective staffer had better find out the REAL story before he makes a big mistake. Before a yearbook ship- ment is sent or the next issue of the Hi-Life goes to press, there’s only two or there weeks to get everything done including plans, layouts, cap- tions, copy, headlines, pic- tures, copyreading, editing — S-C-R-E-A-M! (Get the idea?) Everything gets started in plenty of time, but setbacks always happen and, of course, AFTER JUST MISSING the legislature in session, newspaper members John Menaker, Jen- nifer McMillin and Tim Vandegriff along with yearbook members Renee Ross and Suzanne Moye take a _ tour through the state capital. These publication groups went to the capital on their one free after- noon from the Interscholastic League workshop in Austin. at the w orst possible time. Regardless of the tension, the work does (read that “MUST”) get done and — by the dealine. “When I hear the word ‘deadline,’ I get all ner- vous inside and my stomach turns a little,” said Lynn Leach, first year newspaper staff member. The book and paper are finally finished (on time) and receive top honors in In- terscholastic League judging. The newspaper won top awards of Distinguished Merit and the 1985 Yearbook won the second classification award of achievement. Why do students volunteer to do all this work anyway?

Service projects object of two organizations By Candee Cain Raising the flag, donating blood, adopting a section of highway, Spirit Week, and making pancakes all have something in common. These were service activities carried out by the Key Club or the Student Council, which both have as projects activities to benefit the school. The Key Club, which was co-ed this year, adopted a section of highway in front of the school on Highway 64 in order to help with litter con- trol. This project is part of the Highway Department’s effort to keep the roadsides clean. They also played on the students’ sentiment Valen- tine’s Day by selling carna- tions for a fund raiser to help carry out their projects. Another service which the Key Club tried to carry out, according to Mr. Ronnie Har- din, sponsor, was the raising of the flag in front of the school. Mr. Hardin also com- mented that “overall we did a good job of it.” Student Council this year sponsored Spirit Week dur- ing the week before Homecoming. “I think it went well, but I wish more people had participated in the dress-up days,” said Ruwani Walgama, student council member. Highlights of the week included Ban- dana Day, Hawaiian Day, Inside-out Day, Vogue and G.Q. Day, and climaxed with Spirit Day Friday. Besides Spirit Week, the Student Council sponsored a blood drive and sold cookie pies for a fund raiser. Both organizations provide services that they feel make the school better or strengthen the spirit of the student body. Both clubs choose members by applica- tion and recommendations.

Each club sold candy or something else to appeal to the student’s sweet tooth to raise money for their deserv- ing senior. The FTA sold M Ms while the Foreign Language sold Zot suckers and Gummy bears to earn money for their scholarships. The National Honor Socie- ty had a cupcake sale Valen- tine’s Day and sponsored a student vs. teacher volleyball game to earn money for their scholarship. FTA gives a $200 scholar- ship to a senior in the club chosen by the rest of the members. The Foreign Language Club gives a $500 scholarship to the deserving senior elected by the entire club. In the NHS, only the seniors decide who gets the $600 scholarship. These lucky seniors are revealed at the Senior Ban- quet at the close of the year.

SENIOR BAND MEMBER Carla Roberts leads a file during the home half-time performance at the Carthage game. DRUM MAJOR JENNIFER Carter brings the band to a halt at the sidelines to conclude the half-time performance. By Candee Cain Everyone usually thinks “twirler” when they hear the words “Drum Major,” but this year it was different. Jennifer Carter was elected Drum Major at the end of last year. Having no experience in leading the band, Jennifer learned a lot. She attended SFA Flag and Drum Major camp and her group won Best Squad. “Drum Major has nothing to do with twirling,” said band director Ronald Ferguson. Mr. Ferguson also commented that this is not the first time a non-twirler has tried out for the position of Drum Major, but it’s the first time one has gotten it. “T know I was the first non-twirler in a long time and it scared me,” said Jennifer. _ First non-twirling drum major leads band ANDY LEE, FRESHMAN becomes the center of attention as he tells a joke at Region Band tryouts to ease the tension of waiting. “Once I settled down and stopped thinking ‘Oh my gosh everyone’s staring at me’ things went better.” Drum Major was the big news at the beginning of the year, but the big news at the end of the year was new uniforms. A wave of relief flashed across returning band members as they were told they will be wearing new uniforms next year. Approved by the School Board at a cost of approximately $50,000, they will be a bright royal blue with red and white trim. They will also come with a pair of white trousers for concert season. The old uniforms will be handed down to the Middle School who traditionally inherits the leftovers. Organizations FLAGGER BARBARA SWAN prepares for an aerial in one of the flag corps performances, which was done to Madonna’s hit song ‘‘Material Girl.”’ Uniforms help girls keep eyes on show By Candee Cain Though summer camp and practice are two common words known too well by members of both flag and twirling corps, uniforms play a major part in these organizations also. Twirling and flag corps usually get matching uniforms for performances for an important reason which is the unification of the group. Different outfits draw attention away from the routine while matching out- fits unify and bring the corps together as a whole and help keep the spectators’ attention on the performance. In selecting a_ uniform, socks, shoes, skirts, shorts, shirts, etc. are all bought to match. All members have to 156 MH sFlags and Twirlers decide on a specific time to get together to pick out and agree on uniforms. It always takes more time than was planned to get everything ac- complished. For example, while Suzy wants the blue shirts with white letters, Bet- ty has to have the purple ones with lime green letters. “Picking out matching uniforms is kind of a hassle, but it’s also fun,” said flag member Laura Mansinger. Twirlers and flag members also buy matching uniforms for the football game perfor- mances besides the ones bought for camp. Even though being a flag or twirler can be expensive “It’s worth it,” said twirler Melinda Soape.

The spirited music and fancy routines also builds the fans’ spirit. The last unofficial mascot was in 1977, but it wasn’t a student elected official posi- tion until Tom Reed tried out for the job his junior year. The most spirited and uninhibited performer at pep rallies and sporting events these last two years has been Tom. “T tried out for macot because I enjoyed being the one who got everyone’s spirit rolling and popping,” said the mascot.

Get ready to break open piggy bank for expenses By Lance Gray Winning a spot on the drill team or cheerleading squad along with joining the pep squad is only the first hurdle for the many girls participating. After the initial thrill of making the group, they must dig deep into their pocket books, or those of their parents to fulfill the re- quirements of costumes and camp. Drill team’s major per- forming uniform which in- cludes the boots, belts, hats and skirts cost about $300. Pantyhose are run through constantly, also. “T went through millions of pairs of hose during the year,” said junior Tonya Hammett. Both summer and winter uniforms of the cheerleaders cost about $800 all together. “Camp was the most fun, and it cost the least at $400,” said senior cheerleader Kerry Carrol. Although a girl doesn’t have to try out for the pep squad, it still costs money. A new uniform for the squad runs about $100, but if she buys a used one, it would cost about $35-$50. Gloves, pom-pons, and T- shirts cost extra for the squad. Even though girls have to scrimp and save to get on the teams they want to be on, they'll find the money somewhere.

AFTER SPENDING MONTHS raising his pig, Darin Thomas has spectators’ eyes watching him as he shows his prize winn- ing pig at the Youth Project Show. Ag mechanics is similar to other ag courses in that students compete in the Youth Project Show. This year they won metal division with a table they made. “Helping win the prize for the table built up my con- fidence in my work,” said Jay Miller. Starting this new ag course increased the number of ag students and boosted the ag program all together accord- ing to Mr. Tom Jones, in- structor. “The course in- creased our ag students by about fifty students,” he said. The ag mechanics course is another step to building a stronger more active ag pro- gram, Mr. Jones said. THE AG SHOP doesn’t always ring with hammers, saws, and welding machines. Charlie Bridges, Don Love, Johnny Thornley, and Nobel Walker sample bar-b-que with all the fixin’s prepared by their classmates and teachers.

You whip into a parking space front of Ray Pharmacy, jump out and rush in to order a chocolate milk shake to tie you over. While you’re waiting, you walk across the street to the Smart Shoppe to pick up a gift for your girlfriend’s birthday. Finally, you’re really on your way. The pizza just came out of the oven. “Thank you and come back,” says the cashier.

Clubs meant more than M M’s and key chains because unequalled friend- ships were promoted. And it wasn’t because of one or two people or three or four, it was because we all pulled together. And quite simply our year was classic ... the first of its kind. TOGETHERNESS Senior skit practice gave students a chance to laugh, talk and just be with friends. Prac- tices were held two weeks before the skit everyday. Seniors por- trayed their favorite or least favorite teachers. GETTIN’ DOWN Track, taking over the city for a day and basketball keep students’ atten- tion. And each situation gave them a unique feeling and sense of ac- complishment. Sophomore Brent Beauchamp puts forth tremendous ef- fort to jump a hurdle. Senior David Perry was elected fire chief for a day by his class. Overcoming an opposing player to make a basket, Junior Chris Jackson and the Lions gave Coach Dozier his 500th career victory. Closing BM 223 224 Closing It’s Classic Sponsored by the Junior Class, the Prom was a memorable event for seniors. Junior Class officers spent many hours and donated their hard work in order to make it a special occasion. Many seniors rented limo’s and dined at expensive restaurants. Thanks Juniors! ... the first of its kind pans Sree Lim Ss Nee | : 2 . SHY 5g T ; os ; ORRIN, Le
