SENIOR Every year, the seniors are an active and influential part of our school. This year was no different as the class members of 1978 ended their high school career. One of their first activities was the booth on display at the Apple Festival. The theme of the booth was School Days”, with the decor in the style of an old-fashioned schoolroom. The money made from the sale of donuts, pop. apple cider, and their famous Apple Turnovers , a combination of Coke, Sprite, and apple cider, was used to purchase a trophy showcase and. with the help of the athletic Boosters, the scoreboard that now is in the auditorium.

Robyn McKenzie braves the snow to spend her lunch hour outside. SCENES Other activities that the class of ’78 participated in were: inductions, sports, musical events, clubs, and most of the other things going on at J.H.S. April and May were the busiest months for the Seniors, with final plans ueing made for college, the military, and other future plans, like work. But more than this, activities like the Jr.-Sr. Banquet, Prom, and the Stay-at-Home Party. Baccalaureate, Senior Breakfast, Senior Assembly and finally Graduation rounded out an eventful but memorable year for the class of 1978. Mary Dobbins stands in utter confusion as she tries to park her car in the school lot. ••Will she or won't she?” wonders Kathy Cantor as Marilyn Underwood proceeds to hit unsuspecting Bev Pauley with a snowball. warm in the winter weather 11 13 IRONMEN SCORE A BIG VICTORY February first seemed to be the magical date as the Ironmen roundballers glided to their first league win and the first varsity win for Assistant Coach Steve Wal-burn. Walbum replaced Head Coach A1 Burger when he fell and broke his hip in late January. The win over Meigs dropped the Marauders into a last place league position with the Ironmen.

Kim Conley and her “dog” Dena Smales demonstrate the effectiveness of “Doggie Diapers while Robin Speakman looks on during commercials in Journalism. Unlike what most people believe, the classroom is not always the place of boring lectures, note-taking and tests that plague the minds of its students. The classroom can be a place to discuss things, to ask questions, and even a place to find answers. Sometimes, a class can even be a lot of fun. Yes, that’s right, fun. There are times that you find yourself doing things that seemed impossible to do in school. Things like performing a commercial about “Waugh’s Walking Shark Shoes” or putting on skits in English class. So the next time you’re in a classroom, don’t go with the attitude of being bored. You may just learn something. Brent Wickline and Jerry Morgan make their cooking skills known in Foods and Nutritions class. Amy and Nikki Horscly tell about Nikki's first few months of life as a project in Psychology. 17 JHS — A HODGEPODGE OF PEOPLE People? You ask about our people? Well, we have some of the greatest people on the face of this earth right here at JHS. No matter how you look at us, our people have a spirit, a grin, or even a joke to tell and give to you. whether they know you or not. Take our teachers for instance. Most of the time they greet us with a warm and friendly smile. The administration — they even take time out of their busy schedules to play a game of softball with the girl’s team. No one has a perfect day every day. but even the worst days aren’t too bad. So. take a good look at US. We’re all different, but we’re all a part of JHS. if 3a 18 FALL PLAY CAST PRESENTS: “THE WORLD OF CARL SANDBURG” November 18 and 19 were two memorable evenings to the seven members of the cast of The World of Carl Sandburg. The 1977-78 fall play, directed by Mr. Greg Miller and assisted by Mr. Robert Ervin, was a fascinating and very interesting change in the line of common High School play performances. The cast included (in order of appearance) Mike Lowry, Kathi Walke, Jim Brown, Tammy Carper. Bryan Wood, Elizabeth Hendricks, Robin Oiler and the guitarists Beau Carper and Lisa Goldstayn. Upper Left: “Arc you happy? It’s the only way to be, kid.” Elizabeth Hendricks recites “Snatch of Sliphorn Jazz. Lower Left: “Alas! Poor Yorick.

The theme of the dance was “Hicktown Hoedown” and the band was “Marble Faun.” Sadie Hawkins is sponsored by the Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y clubs and is the only dance of the year where the gals ask the guys. Senior Vince Crace was selected as ‘Little Abner’ king of the dance. His attendants were Tim Grillo, Senior; Jim Campbell, Junior; Gary Oberholzer, Sophomore; and Chris Coll, Freshman. The second and final award of the evening was the best dressed award which went to Kim Malone and Wayne Skaggs. “Sheriff Bowman” keeps the peace and everyone in line with his trusty rifle in hand.

All age groups were captivated by each character of Lewis Car-roll's fable. Songs such as Speak Roughly to Your Little Boy.” The Lobster Quadrille dance and the famed Mad Hatter's Tea Party provided great entertainment for all who came to see. Indeed, it was a most enjoyable evening for the audience.

BANQUET KICKS OFF PROM NIGHT The festivities of the night of April 28, 1978, began with the Junior-Senior Banquet which was held in the high school cafeteria. After the invocation by Michelle Sowman, the class of ’78 and their hosts, the Juniors, enjoyed a meal together. The remainder of the program followed. Junior President Sally Ousley welcomed each one of the Senior class members to the banquet and Debi Walke responded to the welcome. Next, Joni Shupe officially dedicated the Banquet and Prom to the Class of ’78. One of the highlights of the program was the singing of the class song “Come Sail Away by Suzy Williams and Angel Hartley. The background music was provided by Joe Crawford, Terry Tabor, and Steve Lanier. The Benediction was given by Margaret Queen ending the beginning of one of the most memorable nights ever for the classes of ’78 and '19. 24 “Welcome to Disco ’78” was a welcome sight to all who entered the building. Greg Forsyth and Kim Conley draw closer as the music slows down. MUSIC, LIGHTS, DECORATIONS TURN MEMORIAL BUILDING INTO DISCO 78 The Memorial Building was the setting for the annual Stay-At-Home Party given for the Juniors and Seniors by their parents. The floor was transformed into a disco setting for the dance which was held from 12:00 to 4:00 AM. Music for the evening was provided by the group “Clockwork.” For a remembrance gift, each person entering the party was presented with a copy of the Senior Class song, “Come Sail Away.” The Stay-At-Home Party ended a busy but memorable night for the Junior-Senior Classes. The shimmering pillars and the flashing lights gave a disco feeling to the party. A parent anxiously awaits a customer at the much visited refreshment stand. 25 “COME SAIL AWAY” The night had come at last. It was time to don your tuxedo or formal and go with your favorite guy or gal to your Junior-Senior Prom. This year's Prom was held in the High School Auditorium on April 28, 1978 at 9:00 p.m. The theme for the dance was based on the Senior class song. Come Sail Away,” with the color scheme of blue and white stars and a sailboat as the center piece decoration effectively carrying out the theme of the dance. The music for the Prom was provided by a group from Lancaster called “Feelings. This group was no stranger to J.H.S. Proms, because they played at the Prom last year. Their selection of music ranged from the disco sounds of today, to the slow soft sounds of performers like Barry Manilow. to the bluegrass sounds of Waylon Jennings. To add to the excitement of the night, at approximately 11:00 p.m., “Come Sail Away” was played by Feelings, and a bag of balloons was dropped from the ceiling, to give the decorations a special look. The dance ended at midnight, and concluded one of the most memorable nights for the members of the classes of 78 and 79 and their guests. Above: Gary Roseberry.

CHANGE BRINGS NEW LOOK TO OSKY WOW Publicizing student life with new features, the school yearbook, the OSKY WOW, made 1978 a year of change. A summer journalism workshop at Ohio University inspired editors Hester Davis and Debbie Worthington with ideas of presenting this year’s book as a picture of the students who are JHS and who made it JHS. Under the direction of advisor Mrs. Lucinda Eubanks, new staff positions were created and the staff was enlarged. Staff members were the key motivation force for the successful ad campaign and for the tremendous response in the book sales. The first annual picture sale was conducted in October and proved to be a popular money-raising project. Co-Editors-in-Chief. . . Hester Davis and Debbie Worthington.

FORENSIC LEAGUE REBORN The Forensic League is a member of the Ohio High School Speech League and is designed to prepare students for competition in inter-scholastic speech tournaments. At one time, during the early 1960’s, the organization was one of the most popular with JHS students. Several of the league members participated in state competition. With the upswing of high school sports activities, the membership of the group gradually declined until there was no interest. In 1977, the JHS Forensic League was reactivated. The league is advised by Miss Henry and Ms. Rieder and is open to anyone in grades 9 through 12. Competition consists of various categories of speeches, including extemporaneous speeches, team debate, prepared speeches, dramatic interpretation, and humorous interpretation. Awards are given to the top performances in each division and to the top scoring team. The group made money by running the concession stand at basketball games. 36 THIRTY-NINE JUNIORS INDUCTED INTO NHS The National Honor Society is an organization that included 43 senior members for the 1977-78 year.

The cheerleaders had a very busy year. The 6 member Varsity squad was in charge of selling ribbons, painting spirit signs, practicing for games, and trying to get the JSH students to cheer. The Varsity squad was ably assisted by the 6 girls of the JV squad. The Freshman and Junior High cheerleaders spent most of their time developing their skills and cheering for their games. To become a cheerleader a girl must be able to do the basic jumps, the cartwheel-split, be creative, and have the ability to work with others. Each squad attends summer camp. So, you see, being a cheerleader is a very hard job. It takes a girl who is dedicated and wants to represent her school and support her team. 50 Opposite Page: Left: 1977-78 VARSITY CHEERLEADING SQUAD: Raw I: Becky Papcsh. Row 2: (L-R) Cheryl Barnett.

As Coach Foglesong remarked. “They’re a very fine team with a good attitude.” Maybe. Someday. Future Champs??

Girls track is a term that is fairly new to J.H.S., this being the second year for it. This year showed a considerable amount of improvement from last year as the girls came through with a few victories, those being at Gallipolis, first place and Logan, first place. This year also presented for the first time, a league meet, in which the J.H.S. Girls Track placed third. The overall season was somewhat successful. Boys track is not so new to J.H.S. but still at a disadvantage — not having a track. All the meets are on the road, which means a little extra perspective in thinking. The boys dealt with some rough times this year, but in the spirit of J.H.S., never gave up.

A SENIOR ... A friend to each other, an idol to the younger kids ... A help to their parents, a nuisance to their teachers . . . Do you remember the times of laughter, and the ones that made you cry? Or how's about the time that you decided to skip and you got caught and received six hours of detention? Ah. yes. do we remember them well. These times are gone now and all we have left are the memories. Times of saying goodbye to friends, teachers and people whom we may never see again, and of course, the last activities of our Senior year: the Prom, the Stay-at-Home Party. Teas. Banquets. The Senior Breakfast. Baccalaureate, and the Senior Assembly. Then it was the time to leave a place that you've known for four or six years to enter the world . . . Twenty years from now we'll sit around and talk about the good old days. Then's when we'll say: “Sure. I remember . . .

Suddenly it was THE day and for-Seniors-only events were happening. As the day dawned underclassmen saw Seniors scurrying to the cafeteria for the Cereta 0)11 Senior Breakfast. The annual event, begun by Cereta Coll in 1954, is served by mothers of Senior Students. The class and teachers were served doughnuts and juice and each graduate received a Jackson glass. A moving rendition of the class song was sung by Robin Oiler and Cheryl Barnett. The entire class sang “Graduation Day” and “Bless This Class” to end the breakfast. Above: Moihers serve those seated at the Speaker's Table. They are (L-R) Mr. Bevins. Jane Schmid, Mary Dobbins, Senior Class President Debi Walke, and Debi’s mother, Mrs. Vern Walke.

Below: As Cheryl Barnett and Robin Oiler sing the class song ‘‘Come Sail Away Seniors attentively listen. 155 SENIOR A Cast of Idiots (alias the class of ’78). pooled their resources to form one of the largest, and most varied assemblies of the year, known as the Senior Assembly. With President Debi Walke serving as Mistress of Ceremonies, the seniors performed in various skits and routines made up and performed by the seniors for the members of grades 10-12. Some of the acts performed were: The Big Double Date. All By Myself (A skating act done by Jody Swingle). Luckenbach. Texas. The Girl's Football Team and Cheerleaders. Disco ’78. Kicker. Dr. Pepper, and several others, with Crazy Legs and Grass Skirt introducing each act. The finale of the Assembly was the long awaited Senior Film, filmed, directed and acted out by the seniors themselves. The singing of the class song and the passing of the key from Debi to the Junior President Sally Ousley ended the result of a lot of hard work by the seniors and an enjoyable time for the audience of the 1978 Senior Assembly. Amy Waugh. Rich Harless, and Kathy Cantor finally succeed in doing their act “Disco 78“ after a long practice. “Crazy Legs Mary Dobbins introduced each act as it was presented. Waylon (Jerry Morgan) and the boys get “back to the basics of love” as they perform “Luckenbach. Texas” before a very receptive crowd. Dale Duhl loses his shirt to say “Why he’s glad to be a senior.” Center Left: Members of the cast perform the finale of the assembly, the singing of the class song. Bottom Ij U: Bob Osborne, lead guitarist of “Kicker” shows a little of what he can do. 157 ASSEMBLY It was the evening of May 26. 1978. A long awaited moment was about to occur. Two-hundred and nineteen young men and women stood sweating in the JHS gym. anxiously preparing themselves to step out onto the football field. Then Mr. Bevins gives the Go signal and the processional of graduates begins. And so began the Graduation Excercises of the Class of 1978. After the invocation. Salutatorian Gary Neer and Valedictorian Debbie Worthington addressed their classmates. They were followed by the Senior Chorus, who sang You Light Up My Life.” Mr. David Martin, an official from the Ohio School Boards Association, gave the Commencement Address. The long awaited moment arrived. Superintendent John Finch and Assistant Superintendent John Worthington presented the diplomas to each graduate. As Mr. Finch declared the Class of 78 graduates, the Senior Class disappeared forever and only alumni remained.

OHIO 45601 LADIES HABERDASHERY 175 176 WATERLOO COAL COMPANY _ 1 A YEAR TO REMEMBER . . It's over. Another year has passed and another graduating class has left to tackle the wide world. But before you abandon the thought of this year altogether, let’s look at some of the things that we’ve done this school year. Sure, we weren't always on top. But who is? Despite the rough times, we seemed to make it through all right. We had two champion teams and others came close. But as the old saying goes, “It’s not whether you win or lose, it’s how you play the game.” Our unique characteristic, however, is our spirit. No matter what the situation, win or lose, we always have the spirit that makes us JHS! In fact, we have the spirit that makes us who we are! It's the same old story, one class leaves the nest, the next one in line takes over. But each year is different from the others. So is the case of this year. Our attitudes, our ambitions, our goals . . . That's what makes us unique. If people want to really know how JHS got this way. we can say that WE’RE JHS — the way WE made it! 178 . .
