Junction High School - Golden Eagle Yearbook (Junction, TX)

Text from Pages 1 - 192 of the 1981 volume:

Night held the town in a gentle silence. In one home a man sat alone, his family away in sleep. His thoughts followed the rhythm of the music muffled by the ear- phones he wore. The vibrations of “Child of Vision pulsated through his emotions and brought rest. The young tree out on the lawn held up the stars with its growing branches. The moonlight fell through them, streaming between the parted drapes and across an easy chair. As his eyes traced the moonbeam, he saw formed in the light and shadow the shape of an eagle flying. It soared through the night with a breathtaking majesty and grace. The discovery of an image of such power bathed him in awe. The magic of the moment set- tled in him and grew over the next day. He led two young ones back to the room when midnight poised above the house, waiting to hap- pen. Settling them in comfortable chairs, he equipped them with ear- phones and played the song he had listened to when he saw the image. He wanted to capture that beautiful eagle for these two and those like them. Before evening had drifted into early morning, they had recorded the shape on delicate photographic film. The young ones used that shadowy form as a pattern for a dazzling design. And the spirit they felt and were became the symbol they lived by. 1981 GOLDEN EAGLE Junction High School 1700 College Street Junction, Texas 76849 Volume 33 Golden Eagle • I The Eagles Have Landed Challenge electrified the atmos- phere and charged the air with energy. The young Eagles swooped in from a summer of flight — brilliant, powerful, and streamlined. They landed in the secluded Llano River Valley in the rugged hill country of Texas. The “land of living waters welcomed them with balmy sunshine and soft breezes. They settled into their nests for nine months of study. The seclusion of the small town of Junction filtered the avalanche of change in the world into a steady, harmless stream of exciting news. Back in tha comar.

Inflation continually raced ahead of the Eagles. With Reagan, Carter, and Anderson cjmpeting for the highest office in the land, the national media overflowed with news of the latest campaign skirmishes. Several polls taken of the student body in October by members of the government classes showed Reagan ahead by a strong margin.

Football season found most of the parents and students at the stadium each Friday night. While the band played, the team competed, and the crowd cheered, the Band Boosters parcelled out drinks and hot food to cold youngsters. Whistling in a Draft While senior boys whistled Christ- mas carols in English IV, they also harbored annoyance at having to register for the draft as they turned eighteen. Nevertheless, they delighted the top floor of the school building with enthusiastic renditions of “Silent Night” and Jingle Bells.” They, along with others, watched anxiously as Lech Walesa and the Solidarity Union challenged the authority of the Communist Party in Poland.

With the approach- ing inauguration of Ronald Reagan as President of the United States, the country soared to an emotional cli- max.

Experiments in the chemistry lab diverted the Eagles from the tragedy of the continuing disappearance and murders of black children in Atlanta, Georgia. The sad fate of 15 such children by February shadowed the Llano River valley with clouds of foreboding. Friday night excitement helped students work off all their anxieties concerning the violent world around them. Even though the football season held more numerical defeats than victories for the Eagles, they still won in many ways. In the last game of the year, they bat- tled Mason with enthusiasm and pride and won a private victory in doing so. Student Lite • 9 Flying 'Against the Wind' So many changes blew in over the hills that the Eagles found their flight disrupted by the wind. The new admin- istration in Washington cut federal spending and approached economical problems in a new way. The deer hunters drifted back to the cities with the end of the season.

A Winter Day by Stephen Teel The morning ot a flawless winter day; In the woods the children play The snow falls slow, The clouds hang low. 'Twas a dismal day yesterday, But it has gone away A hundred lives will die today But not here for it Is fine and gay. But I was wrong for now A tree has fallen somehow Oh Lord, how could this tragedy be? Life seemed to be so good to me. But there lay the lifeless child My heart beats so fast and wild, The tension builds within my mind. He was good and very kind Oh, why am I not the one dead? He had a whole great life ahead We cannot cry for he is gone. Though I know all weep as life goes on. The morning of a winter day.

We try to see every good and Evil possibility in it. And also strain to acknowledge And deal with it all as well. We explore the unexplainable Things which we do not understand. And we go through many frustrations In doing so. Like in other things, we attempt to Preserve it. after all, we are put Here on earth for a purpose. That purpose is: to succeed and Accomplish in our venturous Daily existence. LIFE itself is an indescribable Matter in which we live today. LIFE is only what you make of it. Nothing more, and nothing less. 'A Touch of History' Discovering American litera- ture in English III enlarged the juniors outlook. They found old themes expressed in new ways. The juniors explored Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men, Hawthorne's The Scarlet Let- ter. Rolvaag's Giants in the Earth, Miller's The Crucible and Bless the Beasts and the Children by Glendon Swarth- out. Commenting on Of Mice and Men, one student said, ‘‘It was the type of book you don't want to put down once you start it. It was sad and the situ- ation was very depressing. Another junior stated.

She hopes to run the mile or the two mile run. Kem proved her en- durance for long distances on the cross country team and consistently won the most points in all the meets.

ClaSMS-SI 'There Are No Losers' From tougher competition in football, cheerleaders crying out for victory, determination and en- durance in cross country, to basketball, track, putts and swings in golf, homeruns in baseball, our athletes met their victories with pride and their disappointments with chivalry. The self-discipline and sacrifice involved in competition are keys to those same values that will be of great importance to everyone in life. In the best of competition, there are no losers.” — Max R.

AthMtM 83 District Tough and Competitive ‘Our district will be tougher and more competitive than last year,” Coach Lynn Spivey, head coach and athletic director, said at the beginning of the season. Of the seven returning lettermen, three were offen- sive starters and one a defensive starter. We had to rely on the running game more than in the past because of the lack of experience at the quarterback and end positions.” Coach Spivey added. Assisting with the varsity team, Coach Danny Stovall served as the offensive line coach. An explosive offensive Eagle performance sur- passed the Ballinger 3A team in both rushing and passing yardage in the first scrimmage. Pre-district games with the 3A teams of Brady and Sonora gave them the lead and gave the Eagles experience.

After the long trip to Big Lake, a 10-7 win over the Reagan County Owls gave the Eagles a big boost. His second time on the field in the quarterback position, Ronny Carpenter worked cooly and confidently.

All-West Texas honors were received by Bobby Hurley as running back and David Lackey as offensive guard. Senior team member David Hinds summed up the season. ‘‘I think a third district championship in a row would be great, but we often forget that sports are for the kids to have fun and to learn what honest, hard competition is like. Too much emphasis is often put on winning. If you can do your best and are proud of yourself and your school, you're a winner.

The team responded very positively to the situation and we played the best game we played all year.” 'Fighting to Win' With a season record of 3-5- 1, Coach Brakeville com- mented, Every game was ex- citing, not just because of the score, but because we were do- ing things as a team and as in- dividuals that we had never been able to do before. It was only a year ago that these kids had to fight to survive when they went on the field. This year they improved enough that they were fighting to win. The toughest game was the last game of the year against Eldorado. They were undefeated and had beaten all of their opponents by at least 30 points. In fact, only one op- ponent before us had scored on them. For us to come as close to beating them as we did was a tremendous compliment.

Track is more of an individual sport than most other sports. When you win or ac- complish a good time, it's a per- sonal excitement. You did it yourself. It's a big pain at times, but it's always paid off in the long run. It's been exciting when I had to run against my competitor from Llano, Lynn Ward. We never knew which of us was going to win because we were so evenly match- ed. She made me work for my win- ning as I did the same to her. I wouldn’t have run as well at state if it hadn’t been for the competi- tion I had earlier this year from Lynn. She made me run. In order to do so I had to have the right at- titude and she gave it to me. I owe her a lot. The most rewarding hap- pening was winning third at state. I wanted a medal more than anything. It was my last chance. I had the greatest feeling. I had ac- complished the goal I had wanted and worked for four years — a state medal.

Gradually they felt the pull of stronger, higher winds. After welding. Mark Daharsh plunges a piece of metal into a tank of water to cool it in agricultural mechanics.

On the 6th, the attempted assassination of President Reagan shocked the whole world and disturbed the serenity of the valley. They watch- ed with thankfulness as he recovered and the country again returned to normal. But again, on May 20th, another attack on the life of one of the most important men in the world saddened the lives of the Eagles. Happily, though. Pope John Paul II over came his wounds. The Eagles crossed one bridge at a time and found that the trouble always passed. A part of hia extra-curricular activities, Charles Schmidt occasionally checks electric windows on cars to see if they work. Unfortunately, this window would go up. but not down, and Charles suffered some discomfort while his friends tried to free his head.

To help the juniors and seniors sail away, the freshman servers include Bobby Carpenter, Todd Overstreet, Sheri Templeton, Suzanne Abilez, Lainey Murtf, Shelly Spiller. and Jay Cashman.

The Blue Diamond has won numerous trophies at various shows around the state. They all shared an exclusive pride in Junction's lake and dam. After the last football game, they had all seen the twinkling street lights blinking on the water. When the unusually heavy spring rains swell- ed the river, they watched the sun- shine shimmer on a million shades of green that fringed the water. Between the branches of the river they found a common ground for friendship.

Your strong hands and gentle arms sheltered us with love and af- fection The difficulties of the past challenged us. but never over- whelmed us.

We smelled flowers for their fragrance. We wrote funny notes to the teachers on our tests. We watched the sun dance on the Llano River. We hugged our mothers and dads when they let us have the car. We could sleep to the rhythm of raindrops on the roof because we knew someone cared. The soft cocoon of love you wrap- ped around us the day wc were born is breaking open Tonight we will emerge in our separate and tender skins As we see what has been, we can believe in what will be Right now we believe we can live forever You have given us the chance to fulfill our lives and follow our dreams You gave your share, because your share was all you have to give.
