We made posters, locker favors, pillow cases, and a lot of goodies. Knowing that the team members appreciated the girls' hard work and giving the boys the surprise torch parade were the most rewarding.

Go for Gold To win a gold basketball and make the playoffs for the first time in over twenty years was the goal for the varsity girls’ team. Com- posed of four seniors, five juniors and three sophomores, the team proved their ability to reach a goal. We were excited that we made the playoffs, yet we were disap- pointed that we didn’t get to regional. We are determined to do better next year,” said Coach Charlotte Dehnel. A gold basketball represented hard work, dedication, disappoint- ments. and victories. Players faced exhausting workouts running up and down the gym. Their aches and pains multiplied with many different drills. Pulling themselves together and standing as one was the main strength of the team according to Coach Dehnel. Shelly Spider, named to the All District first team, was the leading scorer with 285 points in the 25 games. Lainey Murff and Linda Page made the All-District second team. Honorable Mention members were Kem Schwartz with 208 points and Robin Heap with 140. Most exciting game of the season was the bi-district Baird game,” said Coach Dehnel. “It was the game we had been waiting for.

For Sheri Templeton, the 9th hole in San Saba, “the swamp,” was dif- ficult, It was hard to get the ball over and across, but I did it — once. Hitting the ball consistently straight, keeping the score low, and overcoming the hook and slice were also challenges. Out-of-town trips were most ex- citing, especially San Saba and Ozona, although the Junction tournament was most challeng- ing. We knew the course but had to put expertise to work, said Mark Cowlishaw. The girls had difficulties during district at San Saba. Being really cold, it was hard to play and we were really tired from playing the day before, said Jo Ann Boyd. Theresa Keith lost six balls in the same place Sheri Templeton got in three fights with a girl from San Saba.

Community Update To make Junction a cleaner and safer place to live, the City recently improved facilities for residents including a new wastewater treatment plant, new sanitary landfill, new computeriz- ed billing and collection system, new police criminal identification system, and a new dog pound. For the health and welfare of the citizens, the City began enforcing the Junk Car Ordinance. With the new dog pound, stray animals were picked up. Dogs’ tags at a reduced fee provided owner identification. Upon receiving a grant of $2,340 for street improvements from the Texas Department of Community Affairs, the City's engineer prepared a street im- provement survey. With this study, the City will extensively ex- amine the street problem with a possible bond issue resulting, ’ explained Mr. Lanny Lambert, Ci- ty Manager. The most important ac- complishment according to Mr. Lambert was the new wastewater treatment plant. The City should receive 40-60 years of trouble- free service from the new sewer system.

Belinda Cook experiences an unusually quiet, solemn moment |ust before the ceremony. Caution! Attending school for twelve consecutive years pro- ved to be habit forming. And for some, kicking the habit seemed impossible. The graduates had been forced into a habit of getting to school every weekday by 8:00 a.m. Meeting special friends in the halls between classes was habit forming. This habit proved hazardous when Mrs. Tommie Gaston, high school secretary, did not believe the made-up ex- cuses for being late. So receiving those little blue unexcused tardy slips just became another habit. Over the years, the Eagles had come up with millions of excuses for not having a test. They also had a google-plex of cut downs. And there was the dress code that had become a habit. But every rule was broken the last week of school when the seniors had formats, hats and sunglasses, kicker, punk, and toga dress up” days. Another habit was having close friends But on May 20th doors opened to new horizons and graduates were forced to leave the past twelve years behind and to start their new lives. 166 • Focus on Closing Sponsored by THE JUNCTION EAGLE Printed Since 1882. 215 North Sixth Street. 446-2610 With happy memories.

After twelve years of training, the Eagles became airborne. They left the valley of their childhood to learn to fly alone. The winds of tomor- row might someday bring them back, riding the skies in triumph. Graduation 169 Students found a new friend when they met Lesley Niven, a foreign exchange student from Adelaide, Australia. She was spon- sored by the Rotary Club. Lesley’s first preference as to where she would be a foreign ex- change student was Mexico. Her second choice was the United States. Her year here in America began after Christmas. The standard here is a lot easier and more emphasis is plac- ed on sports and not on academics. In ’Aussie (Australia) the students wear uniforms. They also attend high school for five years and they usually graduate when they are seventeen. We work much harder for what you call graduation yet we don't make such a fuss over it (no graduation ceremonies or presents).” Lesley enjoyed eating Mexican food and Oreo cookies. She also liked watching basketball games. In the summer. Lesley plans to go to Houston, Oklahoma, up north to the Great Lakes, and hopefully to New York City. Decisions, decisions!
