Indian Springs School - Khalas Yearbook (Helena, AL)

Text from Pages 1 - 108 of the 1969 volume:

KHALAf ’69 INDIAN SPRINGS SCHOOL HELENA, ALABAMA Indian Springs is getting up at 7:29 to get to breakfast by 7:30. It's going to French class and talking about world politics. It's riding the bus 30 miles every day. It's the 9:30 to 11:00 bull sessions at night. It’s throwing Freshmen in showers. It’s staying up all night the day before a term paper is due. It's having a Town Meeting during class time. It's reading James Joyce while sunbathing. It's having water battles with fire hoses. It's celebrating April Fool's by putting Cantey's bike on the flagpole. It's enjoying telling people that you're from Helena. It’s not an institution - It's a home. i EDITOR........DAVID MONTORO PHOTOGRAPHY RICHARD CTITTENDEN BUSINESS MANAGER----JIM BURKE WRITER.........BERNEY STRAUSS The Khalas staff would like to express its special thanks to the following : Photography Steve Askew Bill Long Br uce May Jack Howard Ben Meyer Cover Design Steve Henderson Senior pictures Paul Goldfarb M.

Happiness is nor a destination, but the pulse of life was the theme of the First Award winning mural in the paint-in held at the barricades surrounding the First National Bank • Southern Natural Gas Building and the nearby South Central Bell Telephone Building, both in downtown Birmingham. Entered by the students of Indian Springs School, the painting was executed on the barricade by Stephen F. Henderson, Chul Oh Lee, Joseph F. Newell, Kevin M. McGuire and Lee T. Blackwell. Their teacher is Mrs. Verna Schuler. «) First Row: Baavors, Smyer. Hubbord. Slringtetlow, C. Scott, Akin, Hodges. Woodrow. Second Row 0. Richardson, T. Crittenden, I. Burnham, J. Howord. Kessler.

Armstrong, Director M Harry Stephen Alcin Tuscumbia, Ala. The Colonel was one of Mr. Flemmings greatest admirers, as it were. To get the ball rolling, he won the Coach Cameron Scrappy Player Award for his heroic efforts on the b-ball court. Sex and booze is all he ever thought of. Next year, he'll be travelling down a two lane road. We hasten to point out that Hors was Comm, of Services and a fine deputy. Gould Harrison Kitchen Blair Birmingham, Ala. See Gould study. Study, Study, Study. Gould studied so hard he was made Principal of Valley School. Hairs claimed that the Senior Dance killed three African children. He now owes the Class of ’69 $75 in dues. Although considered a Dudley Do-Right, Gould considered himself a stud. Studly, Studly, Studly. The next snake burner willbecrucified.' High Nelson Brown III Thomaston, Ala. Nelson's friends affectionately called him Gomer because he looked like a Pyle. His co-ordinated finesse made him the greatest threat to the chem lab since Charley Corter. He was living proof thot hours of sleep don’t make you healthy, wealthy, and wise. James Joseph Burke Birmingham, Ala. As intramural captain, Jim usedhismen effectively all year. Honest Jim gave himself a record every day for going off campus without permission; but for some reason, he always forgot to turn them in. His year's project was corrupting Kerry Kirkland. Jambo was famous on the golf team for his “no shot at all , but also received the J.B. Lusco Story-Telling Citation for entertaining the Judiciary for 8-1 2 hours. Richard Cunningham Crittenden Birmingham, Ala. Richard had a hard time playing Tiny Tim in the Senior Play because his voice was too high. He was an authority on you-know-whats. An expert photographer, the Critter soon hopes to put out his own 1000-page photographic book entitled The Anatomy of Sidney Smyer . Most importantly, Reechard was always there when a picture needed taking. Richard! Richard!! Richard!!! Jack Sims Conway Birmingham, Ala. Jack underwent a greatchange between his sophomore and senior year$--he fulfilled his military obligation and he was two years older. Mr. Wheeler loved Jack because even though Jack missed school the day of a test, he always took the make-up with great skill. Jack had an Indian nickname, Crazy Horse . Paul Milton Goldfarb, Jr. Mobile, Ala. There ain't no doubt about it, Paulie was a stud. At 9:50 every night, every girl in Birmingham waited anxiously by the phone in hopes that Captain C. would make a move. Nobody could understand how the Farb knew so much obout everybody’s personal life. Paul was mailman. Other than this, The Mobile Mover made himself unique at Springs by burning incense, having an irregular shower pattern, and only one eyebrow. Richard Marc Goldstein Birmingham, Ala. Rich endeared himself to all with his friendly hello-two right jabs in the shoulder. Richard was mouthpiece for the Hellcats-all mouth. Next year, the Grass will be cruelly separated from his idol, and the other half of the Odd Couple, David Ovson. All right, Goldstein, go back and play-in your sand box. Stephen Farr Henderson Atlanta, Go. The Senior Lounge was Red's bag. Who will ever forget Just four more hours... ? He was also Helena's foremost Interior Decorator as can be witnessed by his performance on the gym. His noblest effort was keeping smut out of the Issinfo. He was a hippie, Comm, of Recreation, Class Pres, and a member of the Dirty Dozen. I'll do it myself. Charles Thomas Hodges Birmingham, Ala. Hodges was on the soccer team, track team and President of the Nerd Herd. He could be seen every afternoon cheering the herd on to victory in the paper airplane races. Fleet-footed Tom was also the fostest of all the boys he ran around with. His prize possession was a humon-gous 1948 Tape Player adorned with a complete selection of 1948 tapes. John Jeffrey Howard Birmingham, Ala. John excelled. He was in soccer and on the Glee Club. It's only fitting that his name comes after his roommate's so people can compare their activities. They both chose flying as their Senior hobby and Jack even tried to get Coach Cameron to turn the gym over to the Civil Royal Air Patrol. But as hard as he tried, John couldn't teach anyone else how to fly. Dum-De-Dum-Dum-Dum Robert Morris Jackson Birmingham, Ala. Robby-wobby could play any musical instrument you handed him. The Senior Play showed him to be a talented composer. Rob was Comm, of Jug Rallies, a professional bull-shooter and gave reol witty speeches for the Glee Club-’Gee, it’s good to be back in Birmingham. Read that ogain, please, Rob. Donald Bradford Kidd Birmingham, Ala. Brad's successes as a breakfast role-talker were surpassed only by his statue as a judiciary member. The Captain's specialty was maiming goalies; in fact, he finished the season with a 3-0 record. Golden Toes' biggest moment(he'd never let you forget it either) came when he was chosen All-Dixie Conference Soccer. Kerry Lewis Kirkland Montevallo. Ala. Kerry was named Student Driver of the Year because he was so punctual. He was even known to leave to pick up the confirmation boys two hours before they left for confirmation. Star on the golf team, Kerry could always rod the boll into the cup with a special shot. He also helped Burke collect yearbook money. Gimme a fag. Chul-Oh Lee Seoul, Koreo Chul will be holed up at Cornell next year. He was given to the Springs in appreciation for all the fine shows we've put on for the Korean Orphanage Fund. While at ISS, Chul became fluent in English, but never could quite understand his English assignments. His prowess asDep-uty became evident the first day when he gave someone permission to leave his room to go to the bathroom . What's de madduh??? David Barker Livingston Birmingham, Ala. David wasthebehind-the-scenesComm. of Recreation, but somehow the Snoop John B. always found out who got stoned. David was also famous for his suicidal dives on the soccer field. He always handed his English papers in on time. Stone's on and off romance with Sally Sears won him the Robert Jackson Good Spouse-keeping Award. Lealand Lane McCharen Columbus, Miss. Lealond’s nickname was Face, for obvious reasons. He was Council Secretary which is the reason Monk’s council hod no notes. Face could read 10,000 words a minute, but of course, couldn’t comprehend a thing. Besides that, Lealand was triple-jointed, a member of Stegner's boys, Grand Inquisitor, and had a collection of cigarette butts. “Now as chairman of the Judiciary, I'd like to say... Clyde Kerns McKenney Orlando, Fla. Clyde was the only student who could have a head-on collision driving in the dorm circle. In an act of mercy, Dr. Crosby confiscated his VW. Clyde endeared himself to the faculty by beautifully portraying them in the Senior Ploy. When he wasn't wrecking his cor or describing faculty meetings, Kennybobbidy was o paper hanger. ■No! Thomas Wilbur Maddox Anniston, Ala. Tommy cored. He was concerned for others and tried to help them and the school. He carried this attitude over into sports where he was a team man. Dowg was the type of guy you always wanted around, especially if you were going to a party. Other than these fine attributes, Dawg was also a star in soccer, football, golf.... Edwin George Mistr Richmond, Va. Uncle Pete wasn’t a hypocrite. Naaaa! Nazi arm-banded at school, Pete was secretly one of the weekend Jews. Sometimes the Perv carried his desire to be different to an extreme-like when he chopped off half a finger to become the 9 1 2 fingered giant. During his leisure time, Pete was a bigot, a member of the Eat with Schuler for Lunch Bunch, and Captain of the ISS Croquet Squad. George Andrew Monk Anniston. Ala. Mawnk's room always had more commotion than Richmar Dr. at 8:00 on o Friday night. George was the only student ever who looked like a Mayor and he spoke with such eloquence. Toilet-bowl Head also was noted for being a goalie, gesticulating at policemen, and was a purple passions connoisseur. 91 David Frank Montoro Birmingham, Ala. Uh-Uh-sure! Everyone knows Dave. He is going to Vandy. Didn't you know that Dave wos editor of the Khalas? How's the yearbook coming along, David? He was also in the Glee Club and a member of the Judiciory, but mostly was just one of the boys. Nothing to worry about. I've gotevery-thing under control. George Malcolm Murray Birmingham, Ala. G.M. was a machine. Malcolm Q. spent hours in seclusion. That's why he was listed in the directory as a day student two years after he had become a boarder. But all this is not foir to Malcolm. He was, after all, Chairman of the Food Comm, and even though no one showed up for the meetings, his noble efforts at this job got him elected President of Helena’s Vegetarian Society. David Feinefeld Ovson Mt. Brook, Ala. Dave wos the only ISS part-time student, but was a full-time party member. He was one of the most beautifully coif-feured people on campus and was the only guy who could bother Goldstein. On the brighter side, David alone practically unified the entire school, for he was the student that the jocks, fairies, intellectuals, and vegetables all felt the same about. 93 Roger McCoy Pitt Decotur, Ala. When Rog talked everyone listened. Unable to survive the rigors of faking his jacket on and off during a b-ball game, Roger was forced to retire. His arm has been enshrined on the Coach Cameron Memorial Bench for the impression he left on the team, and more importontly, the bench. Arm!!! Romaine Samples Scott III Birmingham Ala. Scotty is a commuter. He commutes. In case you’re interested, Scotty was the only 4-year resident of the Yellow Submarine except for the six hours a day he frequented Montor’s room. His 16 foot pole awed the entire county. Scotty was also an honorary member of the Nerd Herd and stood out in the Glee Club. Scotty was always noted. William Eli Shine III Birmingham. Ala. Although posing as a subdued, wishy-washy type guy at ISS, Bill emerged as Most Popular Guy on Campus at Tuscaloosa High School by beating all the other boys in the race. And he was also known in his infamous town of Fultondale as the only eligible bachelor. But at school, Billy Boy's only accomplishment was getting the dry heaves off near-beer. Uh, gee Berney, whatever you say,don't forget I was Chairman of the Judiciary. 94 Michael Thomas Simpson Cottondale, Fla. MT was one who learned through living in that he talked less his senior year. One not to renege on promises. MT could always be seen fixing bells or installing a P.A. System. He'd even open the store for you if your hunger happened to coin-cice with his. He set the styles on campus with his Indian-styled suits and capes. Where's Injun?!? Clark Robert Smith Daytona Beach, Fla. Clark was ringleader of the fairies in the senior class. There were no other members. Clark showed himself to be MIT material when he replied to the question of how to make it with the girls: Show 'em your slide rule. Aside from being a woman killer, Clark was a Glee Clubber, Wep Pint Co-ordinator, and Publicity Chairman for the JCC. Berney Leopold Strauss Mobile, Ala. Whenever you saw Berney's hand cupped over his mouth whispering into another guy's ear, you knew someone else had been manipulated. The Slink’s 45° angle walk with his left hand in his pocket and right hand scratching his head was impossible to imitate. He was the only student less modest than Cassius Clay. When he wasn't slinking on the tennis courts, he was Mayor, a debater, and editor of the Innuendo. Even some of these oddballs have been elected Mayor. Keith Brooks Strickland Panama City, Fla. In an attempt to match Danny Lawrence's heroics. Bop almost won Homecoming for the seniors single-handedly. Keith attended more judiciary meetings than any of its regular members. He was especially great in football, being known for his doring interceptions of letters sent home. His greatest deed, however, was to make “Frankie 8oby“ a legend in his own time. I got fried. Martin Blackwell Stringfellow Birmingham, Ala. String was probably the only senior never told to go to hell. Martin definitely had the best room in the circle. It came equipped with a popcorn popper, TV set, heoter, and even had hot ond cold running refreshments. No one will ever forget the time he pressed the barber's chair and cut off his big toe. Martin will be remembered as the epitome of cool. Frank Rinard Trechsel III Birmingham, Ala. Goobie snowed all with his choir boy look and, as a result, was made Sweetheart of the 8th Grade Girls. The spleenless Wonder was one of R.J.’s pets, and therefore one of Roberta's favorites too. No one will ever figure out how he nosed into Wesleyan, Williams, and Dartmouth. This is definitely neat.“ 96 Samuel Swift Waldo Montgomery, Ala. Sam was o student driver, Glee Clubber, and Manager of the Track Team. (This is all our files show. We didn’t even know he was here.) William Tilman Warren III Birmingham, Ala. Whenever Monk came round the corner, you could be sure that the Blocker would be right behind. Lines such as what did you say your name was? made Block notorious for snowing blind dates. (No, Bill, we're not accusing you of dating handicapped girls.) Also, Bloke was occasionally a member of the tennis and soccer teams. Golly, it wasn't my fault. John Pinckney Woodrow Birmingham, Alo. John was one of the class philosophers. When asking himself the question Who am I, he would assuredly reply, John Woodrow. He was a student driver and was reputed to hove been on the track team, but above all, John proved that Senior Slump can last two semesters. INTO THE DEPTHS a 100 Dedicated to Richard Jones in recognition of his many years of service and dedication to I.S.S.
