76 Alive at Jefferson Forest High School Rt. 2 Ferrowville Rd. Forest , Va. (above)-Kim Fain and Steve Calloway pay more attention to the radio than Spanish in the first days of school. (below)-Seniors wait in line to pay rental expenses hoping for top lockers. (top center)— Old friends tell each other of their summer’s adventures. (top right)— Students reaquaint themselves with fire drill procedures. (bottom)-Sylvia Foxx and Cathy Meadows decide the annuals ought to be censored! School doors opened on September 2nd, a bit later than usual this year. Students were thankful for the delay, but were anxious to get back into the swing of things. The first few days were spent getting financial business out of the way and getting schedules straight, but students were happy, nonetheless, to be reacquainted with friends and to get involved in another school year. (left)-Susan Reynolds says, Wow, I’m lost already!” (below)-Marshall Ware exhibits his boredom with school even on the first day. (bottom right)-Cathe Allen and Laura Greenwood can’t believe that they actually got a class together. £ Wfc 5. wn . ■■mm ■ I JFHS In Living Color 4 Eat, drink and be merry! Picture this-550 students fighting their way through the lunchline every day. Sounds lovely, huh? That leaves around 400 others wandering around in the halls that aren’t marked OFF LIM¬ ITS” and either smoking cigarettes or just trying to relax. Lunch is the only time during the day that stu¬ dents can do what they want. Once in a while a student will find that he has the opportunity for a real treat ... a trip to Jesse’s Place for lunch! (Above)— Donald Smith is faced with the interesting prospect of eat¬ ing a tomato in the middle of his conversation. (Top)— Darlene Wood finds eating between the lockers a much more peaceful place to eat lunch than the lunchroom. (Center)-Students gather ’round to hear tales of the Spanish stu¬ dents trip to Puerto Rico. Just look at that delicious lunch! � • .. .'i� ,’v. ‘ I - 1 8 t V . 30 minutes to relax!

(Bottom Right)— You wouldn’t dare try that”. 15 Mr. Toms seeks refuge on the bus after Eddie Roakes and Bryant Hare wait as Gigi Strader cooks the ’dogs’, being attacked! Carol Dunford, Mary Wilburn, Mr. Thompson and Laura Greenwood stuff their faces. The Seniors spent a lovely day on the Peaks for the Class Picnic. In¬ stead of classes, the seniors had a chance to walk around the area; eat hot dogs, hamburgers and many deserts. The highlight of the day was the giant water fight when the faculty chaperones (including Mr. Toms and Mr. Thompson) and most students got drenched with water! Celia Cohan after a drenching session. 18 Left to right: Cathy Martin, Laura Reynolds, Angela Knight, Diane Creasy, Becky Johnson, Dawna Johnson and Pauline Roberts. Debbie Burnett soaks up the sun. The ’watermelon’ tabble: Gloria Anderson, Cecelia Austin, Jackie Miller, Bertha Hicks, Loretta Austin, Janice Everrette and Sylvia Anderson. Seniors have fun and laughs at Bev Busch, Debra Auxier and David Campbell await the start. Class Night for the class of 1976 was full of laughs for everyone. A delicious meal of roast beef, mashed potatoes and various vegetables was prepared by the cafeteria staff. Some of the teachers and secretaries provided pies for dessert. Af¬ ter supper, seniors were entertained by the reading of the Senior Superlatives”— awarding the most deserving seniors the most ridiculous titles— and the Last and Will and Testament”— leaving to deserv¬ ing underclassmen and teachers some un¬ deserved headaches!! After all the laugh¬ ter, Jimmy Downing from Big Island entertained the class with folk songs. Mike McDaniel chuckles during the program. Class Night Festivities Angela Knight and Mary Wilburn read Last Wills and Testaments.” Jimmy Downing entertains the seniors. jmjt' « S 20 I Raine Pettyjohn presents his interpretation of the theme. Pauline Roberts receives her diploma. Celia Cohan welcomes guests at beginning of graduation. Graduation at JFHS-June 10, 1976. Bev Busch sneaks a grin during the pre-diploma talks. Graduation took place on the athletic field at 7:30 p.m. on June 10, 1976. The top 10 seniors of the class welcomed the guests and delivered speeches on the theme We May Never Pass this Way Again” (Seals Crofts). Mr. John E. Thomp¬ son, Jr., principal, presented the diploma s while Mr. Robert D. Worrell announced the graduates. The Band played one musical selection in addition to Pomp and Circumstance” for the processional and recessional. The top ten seniors are as follows (not in order): Sheila Branch Celia Cohan Deborah Davis Chris Fellhoelter Dawn Hensley Dawna Johnson Raine Pettyjohn Ricky Routon Mike Thornton Nancy Watts 21 It was just a plain ole day at J.F.H.S. ex¬ cept for Halloween. It seemed that all the se¬ niors decided to reveal who they really were. Among these true identities we found Micky Mouse, The Three Stooges, Farmer Brown, and Count Dracula just to name a few. If you missed school that day you might not know who your friends really are. You going to the hop tonight Sally Jane? Well only if John’s D.A. is dry. Yes, people, J.F.H.S. students brought back those golden old ’50s years with the knee length skirts and pants and white socks. As you walked the halls that day you felt as if you were on the set of HAPPY DAYS. By dressing up you could image what you and your friends would have lo oked like in the NIFTY FIFTYS. 23 Exchange Students Experience Life At JFHS. Ricarido arrives at the Allens house. Ricarido Escudero was an exchange student from Lima Peru. He stayed with Mike McDaniel the first two weeks and Doug Allen the remainder of the three months. Rica¬ rido is 16 years old and enjoys soccer which is the main sport of Peru. Ricarido speaks Spanish and very good English. While here he participated in many sports activi¬ ties, soccer and weightlifting were a few. Ricarido really liked JFHS for one reason more than the rest-girls! He goes to a private school for boys in Peru. He found the people here very interesting and the American ways very amusing at times. How much do I get paid for this? When in Rome do as the Romans do! 24 Chris looks over some American magazines. What are you doing in my room? Swimming is one of Chris’s favorite sports. Christian Sagesser was an exchange student from Sao Paulo, Brazil. He stayed with Glenn Thompson and was here nine weeks. While he was here he enjoyed many things such as, a trip to New York, Williamsburg, Winter- green several movies, and many sports activities. Chris plays tennis, swims, and is a very good soccer player. He was able to do all of these sports while here. Chris said that the people at JFHS were very friendly and the school very interesting much different from his own. In Brazil the school year starts in March and ends in December. Twenty-three subjects are taken per year. The school dress is a uniform and blue jeans are worn only af¬ ter school. Chris made many friends while he was here, and left with many memories of teachers as well as students. He wants to return to America again after he finishes school to visit.

Well, I guess everybody is getting pretty bored with my little speeches about all of our problems. We still have problems, more than our share, but I won’t tell you about them! I would like to thank Mrs. Childress for all of her help. She will do and did do anything for us. I would also like to thank Mike Tinsley for his brilliant con¬ tribution of artwork on the cover and division pages. Mr. Bob Creasman, who is no longer with us, was also a great deal of help. Many thanks to the people who helped selling ads, yearbooks and raffle tickets. Here it is, the end. It has been a pleasure working on this yearbook. It didn’t exactly come out as it was planned, but I hope you like it. I hope that the past yearbooks will provide as many happy memories in your future as they will in mine- Angela Knight 29 Class Officers Lead The Way . . . Top Left: FRESHMEN.

My personal definition is: a cooperative association that acts as a link be¬ tween the students and administration, striving for improvement in everyday school life. Every student in uur high school is actually a member of the S.C.A. The S.C.A. thrives on student support, something which is definitely lacking at the mo¬ ment. I often wonder if the students of Jefferson Forest are proud of their school. There are some school spirited people here, but not enough to en- fluence the appathetic ones. I think it’s time each student took a look at himself and ask one simple question- What have I done to contribute to my high school? High school years are the best years of your life, and you should take every opportu¬ nity to get involved for the betterment of your school. The S.C.A. is working for you, as are the teachers and administration. Do something in re¬ turn; get involved. Respect this school and your¬ self, and then and only then will others respect it. It’s time we started giving a little, instead of only taking. Jefferson Forest is a great school, but we can make it the greatest with a little more effort from each and every student. Put forth this ef¬ fort; make things happen. It’s for your own good. Thank you, Mike Thornton Top: Once again, the S.C.A. sponsored an orienta¬ tion assembly to familiarize students with the various clubs and organizations in the school.

The group did everything from spon¬ soring door decorating contests to putting a float in the Bedford Christmas Parade and collecting for the needy of the county. Midterm exam ex¬ emptions were finally won, that being one of the most important accomplishments of the year. Homeroom representatives were busy reading minutes to the class while the officers were busy running the school store. Everyone became in¬ volved in making the school a better place. Riding the float, Colonial Christmas, in the Bedford Parade are Angela Knight, Norman Knight, David Melton and Inez Whorley. Unseen are Stuart McCabe driving and Cathy Watson. Julia Rosser smiles as she spends her morning in the school store. Officers: Pres. Mike Thornton, Sec. Julia Rosser, Rep. Stuart McCabe, Treas. Dawna Johnson and V. Pres. David Melton. 32 What can’t you say about this year’s Senior class?? They definitely are the Spirit of ’76”. Aside from being the winners of four spirit sticks at the time of publication, 75% of the class also participated by dress¬ ing up on Nifty Fifties Day, Halloween and even on Frog and Aardvark Days. Name the occasion and the class would go out of its way to celebrate it. The S.C.A. could always count on Seniors when they needed work done on a project. Some of these projects included working on the float for the Bedford Christ¬ mas Parade, collecting food for the needy, working on exam exemptions and painting the trashcans in front of the school. Even though they failed once again on exam exemptions, Seniors took the defeat in stride and continued to work. The Senior Advanced Grammar class gives themselves a treat.

Preparing for the future, the Senior Class spent much time studying for tests, taking college boards, hunting for jobs and applying to colleges. Of course, there was also a large percentage of stu¬ dents who didn’t stick around any longer than second period. Some went out to work and others left just to leave the school scene behind. There were some activities that were shared by ev¬ eryone. Among these were ordering announcements and caps and gowns for graduation, paying dues enabl¬ ing the students to take advantage of such activities as Senior Day, Senior Picnic and Class Night. This year’s Senior Class found that graduating was no cheap process. High costs emptied the pockets of many. A Herff Jones representative measures Joey Arthur for a cap.

RONALD GENE DAVIS DA VID LEWIS DEWITT At the end of school last year, it was an¬ nounced that Nancy Watts and Dawna John¬ son would attend the Governor’s School For the Gifted. This was of course, quite an honor as there are few chosen. Nancy chose to major in Spanish and Literature. She was quite happy with the program and enjoyed the speakers and entertainment. Nancy and Dawna were chosen to attend the school on the basis of academic achieve¬ ment and extra curricular involvement. More on the School” will follow on page 43.

CLEOPHUS JOHNSON Girl’s State was held June 15-21, 1975, at Long- wood College where 650 girls from all over Virginia gathered for a week of assemblies and competition. The girls were divided into 13 cities with 50 young ladies” in each. The cities competed in areas of sports, organization, designing cheers and marches to perform during different times of the day. We de¬ cided in our first session to learn as much as possible and to have as much fun as possible without trying hard to win model city” award. Dawn’s city did win 1st place in sports. Although each of us proclaimed our hate of the whole system, when Saturday came, there was not a dry eye on the whole campus. We met so many fantastic girls— the friendships are still intact through letters and telephone. It was an expe¬ rience we’ll neither regret nor forget.

Dawna Johnson was one of the 1975 delegates to the Governor’s School for the Gifted. Dawna resided at Mary Baldwin College from June 20-July 17. Each stu¬ dent was allowed two majors, Dawna’s being Literature and Biology. The stu¬ dents were given lectures, speeches on their subject areas and were taken on sev¬ eral field trips. In the evenings and on weekends, formal and informal dances were held with a variety of live bands playing. Sports also played a part in the program. The purpose of the School” is to ac¬ quaint students with college and with fields in which they are interested. Dawna said she learned a lot and as a re¬ sult of the program, she has decided to go into either Medicine or Biology as a field. Dawna was accompanied by Nancy Watts.

Scott Burnette, a delegate to Boys State, which was held June 15-21, 1975, was interviewed about his week at the session. Scott said that he had a very interesting time and that he enjoyed guest speakers the most in the program. The daily format began with meetings on state and local government, then meetings on political parties. After the meetings, there was sports com¬ petition between different cities, with a guest speaker following dinner. Scott’s City came in 2nd place in sports competition. While at Boys State, Scott was one of three chosen from 650 to represent the group on the A.M. Virginia T.V. show on WLVA.

He keeps towels, salt pills ice and water ready for the players during the games.

In the two years I’ve been attending the school, I have observed all classes and have seen how much spirit, pro¬ ductiveness and all together how each class contributes to our high school. I feel our class can surpass any class yet in doing different projects and things around the school. I think most of you will agree that we can make a mark at JFHS if we pull together and keep the best spirit possible the class of ’79 will be one to remember.

Each English class has 2 representatives to report any new events for the class or for the school. We are really looking forward to the next three years at Jefferson Forest High School.

When I first came up here my brother, Jerry, and my sister, Mary, said I was going to kind of have problems making friends. But I found out that they were partly wrong.

David Allen started skiing a the age of 4. He started skiing in competition at the age of 8. Since then he has accumulated over 50 trophies and has claimed a na¬ tional rating overall in his age group. There are 3 events: trick, slalom, and jump. David says his best event is jumping, but he does very well in the other 2 events. He competed in the Eastern Regionals in Peters¬ burg, Va. against 10 boys. Only the top 3 would advance to the Nationals in Tomahawk, Wisconsin. We was one of these boys by winning 2 First Places and 1 Second Place. At the Nationals he competed against 38 boys and in overall competition, he was number 9.

Worrell is in charge of student books and lockers and the 7th , 8th and 9th grades. Mr. John E. Thompson, Jr. oversees everything. Besides these many duties, the administraters spend their summers making schedules for the next school year.

Miss Thurman and Gail Matthews discuss office affairs. Behind all good schools there’s an efficient sec¬ retarial staff. Miss Patti Thurman types letters to parents, prepares lunch tickets, and answers silly questions. Mrs. Betty Goodman keeps an accurate record of student attendance, answers the phone, and tries to answer any questions. Mrs. Wilma McCoy must keep track of all the money turned in by clubs and individuals. She pays the bills!!! Unfortunately our secretaries are often taken for granted. They deserve our support and consideration. The Jefferson-Forest library, under the su¬ pervision of Mrs. Jan Mattox, has greatly ex¬ panded its resources that are available to the students this year. Many new books, as well as filmstrips and other educational sources, are now in the library. The library hopes to concen¬ trate its efforts on the expansion of the audio¬ visual equipment. A great new dimension has been added to the library. Students may now enjoy music in the library during certain times of the day. Mrs. Mattox, as well as Miss Sharon Nelson and Mrs. Lois Ayers, assistants, hope to continue improving the library. Miss Nelson and Mrs. Ayers seem to find card cataloguing very amusing. Librarians Work to Expand the Library Mrs. Mattox tries to get her point across to one of the students. Who say librarians are hard workers? Is this the one you’re looking for?” 86 Mr. Oglesby helps a student fill out his scholarship application. There are three guidance counselors this year. Mr. Willis Oglesby works with students, grades 7- 12, from the letters A-F. Mr. Horace Rice, also a sponsor of the Martial Arts Club, works with stu¬ dents G-M. Mrs. Jane Woodson, also a sponsor of girls intramurals, works with students N-Z. Mrs. Woodson’s year was further highlighted when she attended the Educator Airlift at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado, for three days. The guidance department works with stu¬ dents to help them understand their abilities, in¬ terests, and special aptitudes. They also help stu¬ dents to acquire information about educational, vocational, and career opportunities within a changing society and make appropriate adjust¬ ments and wise choices. The Guidance Department Continues to Help Students Mr. Rice talks to an interested employer for his students on the phone. Mrs. Woodson files through her records for a student recommendation. 87 Social Studies Dept. 1975-76 The social studies department of Jeffer¬ son Forest High School is subdivided into five areas: Government, U.S. History, Sociol¬ ogy, World History and World Geography. The biggest event this year for the Govern¬ ment class was the trip to Washington, D.C. The trip included a tour of the United States Capital, the White House, the Smithsonian, minuments and a talk with Mr. Caldwell Butler, Congressman for the 6th District of Va. Also the Government classes were in¬ volved in mock trials during the unit of the Judiciary. Some students visited the Bed¬ ford County Court House to get first hand account of how local government is run. Fi¬ nally, mock elections were held. Mrs. Stennette isn’t really gonna hit Mr. Toms with that magazine now is she?! Here they are .. . our J.F.H.S. History and Gov. teachers! History 11 U.S. History classes were not able to take their planned trip to the General Assembly so classroom activ¬ ities were used to bring the functioning of our state and national government into perspective. Projects with an Americana” theme that fit¬ ted in with the Bicentennial while helping some students gain first hand knowledge of how pioneers adapted them¬ selves to their environment and used whatever materials were at hand. Mrs. Stennette seems to be enjoying her history class. Coach Styles takes a Pringles break” from his history class. 88 Mr. Toms must have decided to teach his government classes sitting down! Rev. Beamer, your history class couldn’t be that bad, could it? Ms. Frazier is delighted with her small history class today. Rev. Palmer dictates to his not-so-interested government pupils. 89 The Science Department in¬ creases in size. The science teachers encouraged students from Jeffer¬ son Forest to enter the Bedford Science Fair. We were very successful. Mary Watson’s project, The Effects of Pyramids on the Preservation of food”, won first place. She will be competing in regionals. A third place went to Matt Yeatmann in the eighth grade position for his entry of Is solar power the answer?” Mac Hargis received an Honorable Mention for his entry or Leading Causes of death in Humans.” The science teachers aided in trans¬ portation of the projects and setting up the projects at the science fair. We caught Mrs. Boothe getting into mischief. What is lurking behind Mrs. Boram’s smile? Mr. Hritzko helps Donna Karnes with homework. 90 Mrs. Vincent listens to an intelligent question. Mr. Murphy explains the fundamentals of his stick. No jokes escape Mrs. Turpin’s ears. 91 Math Department this year has been very active. They have partici¬ pated in many activities inside outside of school. Such projects were students entering projects in Science Fair and a math contest at CVCC.

Each stu¬ dent has had the opportunity to par¬ ticipate in literary contests with the encouragement of the English teach¬ ers. This gave students the chance to write creatively outside of class. This year’s teachers: Miss Mary Wing¬ field, Eng. 8; Mrs. Susan Lindstrom, Eng 8, Drama; Mrs. Pam Taylor, Eng 9, Journalism, DECLARA¬ TION; Mr. Harry Woods, Eng. 9,10, Rock ’n’ Soul; Miss Pat Boehler, Eng. 11; Mrs. Ruth Boswell, Eng. 11,12, Advanced Grammar and Com¬ position, CAROUSEL; Mrs. Irene Madison, Eng. 10,12; Mrs. Wendy Childress, Eng 9,10, SELVETTA.

Mr. Moore checks his information for the band banquet. 96 Miss Layne Ridenour gets depressed at the thought of cleanup. Miss Ridenour examines a student’s art work. Art department encourages creativity. June Creasy works at the potters wheel during class. The art classes have really brightened the school this year by painting strange things” on windows outside of the classrooms. The students also worked toward the annual Bedford County Art show in the spring by con¬ structing chairs from cardboard and other objects, drawings, paintings, pottery, and other crafts. Twenty ribbons were awarded to JFHS students. The art club has also helped out by making posters to advertise area art shows and other club events. They also went to a C rafts Festival in Roanoke and Bowling in the Spring. 97 IfJL 1 O . classes have been busy with everything from cooking Spanish and Mex¬ ican food to singing and dancing to the beat of their music. In March, Mrs. Owen had to take a little vaca¬ tion to greet her new daughter, Dawn Marie. Well wishing students presented Mrs. Owen with many gifts and the class¬ room held quite a few showers. Mrs. Peiche, the sub¬ stitute also received a warm welcome. Mrs. Pe- niche has been described by her students in short as, a cool chick”! Mr. Sowell’s French Classes have had a wide variety of activities. The year was filled with films, slides, speakers and music of Europe. French stu¬ dents developed their skills in French cooking by fixing fondue, crepes suzette, bread and cheeses. One week, stu¬ dents went down to the elementary area to teach 5th and 6th graders French. Mardi Gras was celebrated in March with games, an assembly and French Day. Nine stu¬ dents went on a trip to Ireland, England and France over Easter. Out¬ side school, students ate at restaurants, went ice skating at Roanoke Civic Center, swimming at Lynchburg College, a pic¬ nic and a French movie and play. The German classes celebrated Oktoberfest in October with music and games. The German food cooked was scharzwalder kirschtorte and sausage. Sounds devine, doesn’t it? Class members have tried out Bavarian food, as well. They received much infor¬ mation on German food, music, painting and literature. Mrs. Owen catches Harold Brown unprepared before class. Student teacher, Miss Mandeen, helps Mrs. Owen in class. Mr. Sowell goes over a test with his students. Mrs. Smith learns a thing or two herself! I Mr. Sowell needs a few minutes to prepare for his next class. Mrs. Smith is happy to find an increasing num¬ ber of students in the Latin classes and she hopes that the coming year will be even better. This year, students have cooked Italian foods in class and held a ban¬ quet, a play and an ex¬ citing Day in Old Rome . Of course all first year students spent the year looking forward to the June Freedom Day” pic¬ nic. Other activities the club is involved in are pizza parties, caroling, swimming, spring party, and a trip to Busch Gardens. Mrs. Smith also enjoys her Sociology classes be¬ cause they are concerned with current issues and controversial topics. As a culminating activity, stu¬ dents will form their own society, its laws and institutions. Foreign Language Department 99 Business teachers prepare students for the world In shop classes students learn to care for cars and equipment. Business classes teach skills needed for business.

Laura, Mrs. Boswell, Dawna, Susie and Dawn worked after school to finish Carousel. Magazine. Advanced Polyanna” Christmas presents show creativity of the students. Advanced Grammar class, sponsored by Mrs. Boswell, entertains Mrs. Childress’s class. Although we got off to a slow start, the results of our time and efforts toward the publication of Jefferson Forest’s first literary magazine were much more than we had anticipated. Plagued with practically nonexistent funds, little interest, and limited time, each member of the staff was forced to obtain at least one pa¬ tron and strive to increase stu¬ dent interest. Both tasks were successful. Beyond a doubt, Carousel proved to be something of which each student could be proud. 103 Boys P.E classes compete against each other. Coach Russell wants you” to take P.E. seriously. Student teacher Jeff Robey watches a wrestling match. The Boys P.E. classes practiced many hours for cham¬ pionship wrestling, soccer and other matches. They also learned rules of different sports basics for health and safe driving. Although the boys waited anxiously for each championship, they are very excited about the end of the year when they will throw Mr. Russell in the shower. There were 4 student teachers in boys PE: Mr. D. Va- den, Mr. J. Robey, Mr. J. Overall, and Mr. Hollander. Soccer is just one of the many sports taught in boys P.E.

Mr. Thompson faints at the sight of blood. Mrs. Vincent’s Hydra Dance” is the latest thing. This dress seems to be a little skimpy. Nothing like a friendly pat on the back. Mrs. Boswell hides behind Joe Namath. What’s she looking for? Just a few animals in Mrs. Childress’s zoo 4th period. After a long day, her hair holds out longer than she does.

The cafeteria works very hard in preparing well-bal¬ anced and good meals for the student body of Jeffer¬ son Forest and Forest Ele¬ mentary. They are also re¬ sponsible for serving at banquets. This year, for the first time, there was a choice of the regular menu or ham¬ burgers and french fries. We may complain about the food, but these people de¬ serve our thanks. Row 1: M. Jefferson, E.

For the first time ever we have a new and better Bedford County champion, the mighty, mighty Cav¬ aliers. Jefferson Forest won this title by defeating the minutemen of cross county rival Liberty. This game has always meant alot to both schools, each time the two meet Liberty had won the first three years but this year it was a totally different event as the Cavaliers won by the great score of 18-10. Liberty got on the scoreboard first with a field- goal in the first quarter, but the Cavaliers came roaring back to get two quick touchdowns in the sec¬ ond quarter to make the score 12-3 at the half. Liberty was fired up at the start of the third quar¬ ter and got their only touchdown of the game to make the score 12-10 with the Cavaliers still on top. Jefferson Forest scored again in the third quarter to make the score 18-10 to mark the end of the scoring of the game. The fourth quarter was a defensive battle with neither team getting much of a chance to score. As the final gun went off the Cavaliers ex¬ ploded with joy over their FINEST victory of the season.

The players are introduced at the pep rally. 117 Give me an orange soda and moon pie please. This season was filled with a party after each game to so¬ cialize and celebrate the victory with the cheerleaders and fans. Between running to Kings during practice and the daily gossip session they were trying to teach one another the cheers that they all of a sudden for¬ got when they got in front of the fans because they were trying to look at the boys instead of keeping their minds on the cheer. The high¬ light of the season was getting to ride to all the games with BIG T and totally destroying the van he let us use by spilling sodas and the ham¬ burgers from DUDES in downtown Altavista.

When the record was 6 wins and 5 losses, the team acquired a new head coach, Jerald Lowry. He led the team to a sparkling 6 wins and 3 losses in the 2nd half of the season. Kelly Russell was the assistant coach. Our team will lose 6 seniors: Arthur Read, George Hicks, Mike Brown, Delma Jackson, Mike Thornton, and Calvin Thomas. We are looking forward to a good sea¬ son next year and would appreciate your support. David Read shoots for two more. Again, Arthur does it! 131 David Read controls the jump again.

This year was no ex¬ ception. the girls on the squad made posters, planed and presented pep rallies, and cheered their best to raise school spirit and enthusiasm for our favorite teams, the Cav- alettes and Cavaliers.

The cheerleaders had a lot of fun at the games considering the aching muscles and sore throats. The cheerleaders this year were very spirited; we hope their spirit will continue next year. Unfortunately, the Lynchburg annexation took a heavy toll with our returning squad members. Cheerleaders take advantage of unused gym floors for practice.

Sheila Branch and Vickie Davis watch for the ball after a foul-shot. When practice started in Nov. the girls basketball for the yr. 75-76 had it’s work cut out for them. We were playing behind a team that had won both the regular season and tournament champions the previous year. This was a hard job but we showed potential for the years to come by working hard in practice and trying new things. One example is man-to-man defense. The team members next yr. will more readily adapt to this defense because of the time spent in practice on it. Many of the players will be going to camps this sum¬ mer so this will also help them in the individual skills you sometimes don’t have time for. Sheila Branch, Captain 75-76 Woops! . . . looks like the other team won that shot!

Along with the Spanish and Latin Clubs, the French Club took a trip to Busch Gardens. The big¬ gest event of the year, however, must have been Mardi Gras. Dur¬ ing this week of festivities the French students had games, wine drinking contests, dancing, and deli¬ cious meals of French food.

The contests were within the area except the Livestock Jud¬ ging in which the chapter was the top team in the state. Also first place in the Dairy Judging Contest, the chapter lost only one contest out of six, which is an outstanding record. The chapter also held a contest between chapter members. Some of the contests were the Record Book Contest, in which Ray Perkins was the winner, Games Law Contest in which Tommy Bowyer was the winner. One of the Chapter’s biggest events was their annual family banquet in which progress awards were awarded to chapter members.

The purpose of the Equestrian Club is to bring to¬ gether people who have a common interest in horses and to develop knowledge and appreciation of the horse and those activities involving horses. The club attempts to lay the foundations on which effective horsemanship and specialized forms of riding may develop according to the individual interests of each member. One of our immediate goals is to have a fall or spring horse show next year. Various activities planned will help raise money for award ribbons. As a member of the Equestrian Club, I hope others will take an interest in horses and show their inter¬ est by joining our club and contributing to our dis¬ cussions of horses and horsemanship.

The Photography Club snaps its way to fame. Photography club members watch a demonstration of photo equipment by new sponsor Mr. Turpin. The photography club has done many interesting things this year. They have learned the art of good picture-taking, besides learning how to develop their film once they have shot it. They also have learned how to use complicated lenses and different lighting for different situations. Since this is a relatively new club, the membership is still small. The club hopes that next the number will increase and that they will be able to improve their equipment and knowledge. The SELVETTA staff is fortunate to have people from the club working on the yearbook. We encourage all interested persons to join and help contribute to your yearbook. 165 At the time that this picture was taken, the club had just been formed and its membership had not yet grown in number.

The 1976 Jefferson Forest Cavalier Varsity Baseball team closed out its most disappointing season in the 4 year history of the school, posting a 11-10 record. Al¬ though the season was disappointing, there were sev¬ eral bright spots during the year, namely the surpris¬ ing ability of the younger players to adapt to competition of the varsity level. Lack of consistent hit¬ ting proved to be the chief weakness of this year’s Cav¬ alier nine. Next year promises to be a bright one with the baseball team only losing 3 seniors to graduation. Joey Tomlin makes a good play at first. 178 Ray Perkins shows great effort in tag at 2nd. Webber discuss next move in playoff r t . «• ■— • . -.••■� ■ - ?v � ■ r . '•SSt wm ,.s r.

Inez Whorley a dedicated player. Cavalettes have another good year. ! 180 Pam Perkins, 3rd baseman, makes the play. Dot Brown pitches in practice. Carol Price, catcher, is up to bat next. The girls softball team this year ended their season with five wins and five losses. The Cavalettes had a strong early season winning streak but the last few games were a disappointment. Mr. Gentry, the coach, backed us up the whole way. They’re hoping for an even better season next year and more support from fellow students. 181 Team members line up for a picture. J.V. Baseball shows team strength Monzell Jefferson brings the team back to bat with his catch. Milton Mack gets a pick off at first. J.C. Owen hopes for a hit. 182 The gang before a game. The J.V. Baseball record, 4-11, did not show a winning season but the team had a lot of good players that just couldn’t get it together. The team was helped by outstanding pitching by Bill Burnette, Milton Mack and Buzzy McFaden. Out¬ standing defensive players were Mike Craig, David Harris, Will Bon¬ ner, Cedric Carroll, Billie Spinner and Kenny Feydt. Power hitting came from Buzzy McFaden, Bill Burnette, Will Bonner and Mike Craig. The team was led by Coach Jeff Schleicher and Coach Burnette. Coach Burnette came from New London to help out the team. The team had a good time when Bill Burnette, Todd Fulks, Will Bon¬ ner, Cedric Carroll and Randy Winks gave Coach Scheicher a pink belly” after the last game. Mike Craig shows much determination when he swings! Billie Spinner puts everything into his catching. Coach Schleicher demonstrates the proper grip. Golf Team Qualifies For Regional’s 184 Successful: A word that has always described golf teams in the past and a word that fits again. This year’s golf team, coached by Mr. Jerald Lowry, had a season record of 7 wins and 5 loses. This is not a tremendous record, but the members redeemed themselves in the district match, where they defeated Altavista in a playoff match for third place and the opportunity to go to the re¬ gional tournament in Roanoke. The success of the team can be credited to the coaching job of Mr. Lowry and the hard work of the members. ■ Top: Mr. Lowry sits down on the job.

The Indoor Track team had its second straight winning season and finished a strong 4th in the District meet. Sammie Otey finished 2nd in the 60 yard dash at the state meet while the 880 relay team (Otey, Bob Bollinger, Thomas Jackson and Lawrence White) captured 4th in the state. Sev¬ eral other team members won places in the dis¬ trict and regional meets. Lawrence White clears the high jump again. Dawn Hensley gets another first place. A careful handoff could make the difference. Sammie Otey is undefeated in the 200. 186 Anne Moody is a winner again. Sammy Otey shows real winning form.
