Dedicated With Much Appreciation A parent, friend, and secretary are just a few of the responsibil- ities that Mrs. Nancy Beach up- holds. She has worked at John C for seven years. These years, her work, and her accomplishments have now not gone without rec- ognition. Over the years she has dedicated herself to John C. not only as the secretary but also as a mediator between the adminis- tration and the students. She gives her time to the school not only during the school's term but also during the summer. She mixes her duties at home, other civic duties, and du- ties at school very well. One thing can be said of Mrs. Beach, she would do anything asked of her. A typical day is crammed full of counting and depositing mon- ey, typing and filing records and fulfilling teacher’s errands. She calls mom when you’re sick and puts on the band-aids. Her smile in the morning, starts anyone's day off right. She shows her love, loyalty, care, and pride to the students and faculty of John C. At a Friday night foot- ball game, she can be found in the stands cheering the team on to a victory. So this year, the year- book staff proudly dedicates the 1988 Talon to Mrs. Nancy Beach.

U School spirit is what high school’s all about 99 The WarHawk mascot serves as a symbol of spirit for fans both young and old, never lacking enthusi- asm. What makes sports worth it? What kind of benefits atone for the hours of practice a sport re- quires, the aching muscles, the sweat and dirt, the summer practices, the agony of defeat? Well, of course, the thrill of vic- tory, but another thrill that makes athletes appreciate their efforts is school spirit: it keeps a team going when it’s on a winning roll; it encourages a player when the score makes him hopeless. Support of athletics is as important to a season as preparation. Ipirit's ffect on Season As Coach Maddox expressed it, “School spirit is what high school is all about. And it is, it draws us all together.” School spirit was at a new high for de- voted WarHawk fans in 1987. This atti- tude more than paid off as individuals as well as teams were recognized for superior efforts. The girls’ tennis and Varsity foot- ball teams both became Conference Champions and advanced all the way to regional playoffs. Sports Division 21
