Right- In a more relaxed setting time passes slowly during a lecture. Opposite page- On a sunny day some can take their time to study in the outdoors. Ranger marks Time passes quickly or slowly, but enevitably. It is the universal certainty that governs our activities. We say: Time is on our side. Time is running out. I don’t have time to do that. Time is wasting. Time is of the essence. If I had the time I would do this or that. Time is racing by. Time creeps by. There was a time when 1.... We mark our movement, our time, with more than clocks or calendars. Perhaps more importantly we measure our lives with rites of passage and ceremony. Some are small, individual and quiet while others are large and noisy. ‘time passages’ Thinking on these events, each person attaches individual and shared emotions to these passages. We will not forget certain ones, and we will be hard pressed to remember others, but we will move on to other time passages. It is appropriate, then, that we publish some symbols and images that represent our particular time passage at Kilgore College.

The Revels 1985 theme was in honor of KC’s Golden Anniversary. “The Rangercttes weren’t celebrating their golden anniversary, but were celebrating the golden moments that they have had over the years,’’ said Deana Bolton, Rangerette director. The four categories for the revue were: places the Rangerettes have traveled, events in which they have participated, important people who have helped them and the traditions they have established. The ’Rettes also showed a little of their history by performing a new prop routine. “Over the years the Rangerettes have used at least 50 or 60 different props in their routines. They used some of these props boxes, banjoes, rifles, streamers and trumpets to name a few - in a special routine,’’ said Mrs. Bolton. The seven Ranger Beauties were also presented in a slide show. Other acts featured the KC Stage Band, the KC Connection, the Ranger Band and Verbatim. Wallace Reed, former KC band director, played a trumpet version of Stardust. The Rangerettes Forever and the Rangerette managers also had a spot in the show. Laura Davis, assistant Rangerette director, was choreographer for the revels.

In the battle of San Jacinto led by Gen. Sam Houston, Texans defeated the Mexican army and established the Republic of Texas. Less than ten years later, Texas was admitted as the 28th state in the Union. Statehood didn’t sit well with the new Texans, as was apparent when they seceded from the United States and joined the Confederacy in 1861. Today, the rebel flag is still seen often, along with an occasional bumper sticker that strongly states, Secede!” I suppose Texans will always be individualists. After the defeat of the Confederacy in the Civil War, Texas was again admitted to the United States, this time on a more permanent basis. This year marks an important frame in our Time Passages since a sesquicentennial comes around only once. People all over the state have celebrated the occasion by erecting monuments, giving tribute to the men, women, and children who participated in the making of Texas history, re-enacting parts of state history, or just plain celebrating that comes in all shapes and sizes. The history we preserve and commemorate today will undoubtedly give our descendants more to be proud of tomorrow. Remember the A tamo! Ed. Special thanks to Mrs. Nelda Lewis, chairperson of the Kilgore Sesquicentennial Committee and to The Texas 1986 Sesquicentennial Commission. I Band, ‘Rettes travel to France Finally, after months of anticipation, weeks of preparing,and days of packing, the KC Ranger Band and Rangerettes departed on two different day for Nice, France. The week-long journey would include several performances, tours, and just plain fun. The first day was spent mainly on the airplane. The lobby of the hotel after their arrival resembled just what it looked like—a bunch of tired, but excited kids checking in at a hotel in a foreign country. The floor soon disappeared under the patchwork colors of leather, fabric, and vinyl suitcases. The first parade, the Battle of the Flowers, that Tuesday prepared the two groups for future parades to come. The crowd threw flowers, confetti, and squirted silly string. American parades were never like that! Between performances, the ‘Rettes and Band toured scenic Monaco, Eze, St. Paul, and Grasse. Friday of that week, they performed at Cannes on the largest stage in Europe, the same stage the Cannes Film Festival is held. By this time everyone was getting tired of bread, which was served without fail with every meal. The food, language, and money system were difficult to get accustomed to, but that didn’t stop them from having fun. Saturday, February 8, the Parade of Lights in downtown Nice was a highlight of the trip. The crowd wasn’t prepared for a band and drill team that were armed with silly string to squirt back at them. The ‘Rettes and Band learned the meaning of “crowd participation’’. Sunday, the ‘Rettes left early in the morning to catch their long flight home. It was just beginning to snow and by afternoon, the parade the Band was to perform in was cancelled. Maybe it was just as well-they didn’t wan’t four inches of good snow (almost never seen on the Riviera) to go to waste! Finally, everyone arrived home after an active week, days of craving real American food, and hours spent trying to sleep on an airplane. The week-long French experience had come to an end. 20 Opposite page: The Band plays Artistry in Rhythm for the 'Rettes as a sequel to the concert it gave in Cannes.

The Cotton Bowl, Cotton Bowl Parade, Texas A M vs. Auburn, were the highlights of the newly arrived year for the KC Band and Rangcrcttes. 1986 marked the 50th Cotton Bowl Classic, the Texas Sesquicentennial, and the 37th journey of the ensemble and drill team to Dallas to perform. It all began with a short stay at the Dallas Hilton for the Ranger Band and Rangerettes prior to the New Year. Some brought in the New Year by attending a New Year’s Eve bash given courtesy of the A M Band, also guests at the hotel. The next day was the Cotton Bowl Parade. More than 60 floats and bands were traditionally led off by the Band and Rangerettes. After the warmer-than-usual parade, their ever-faithful carriages (Greyhound busses) awaited to immediately transport them to the Cotton Bowl. Upon arrival, they were soon performing well-rehearsed drills as a sold out stadium and CBS television cameras looked on. Pre-game included skydivers and a performance by the Vocal Majority of Dallas. At halftime, after the Texas A M and Auburn bands performed, in a pleasant temperature of 60 degrees, the KC Band and formed the state of Texas as the Rangerettes lined the top and the A M and Auburn bands brought up the sides to play a fanfare and King Cotton. The roaring of the mainly maroon and white clad aficionados only added to the excitement and enthusiasm of the occasion. The best thing it? Ask any Rangerette or Band member. “It wasn’t cold!” Top- Workmen put the final touches on the Cotton Bowl’s ‘'50th logo in the middle of Commerce Street in downtown Dallas before the Ranger Band and Rangerettes performed before the large crow ds.

Tradition, precision, fellowship Tradition, precision, and fellowship. These arc the three key words that epitomize the Kilgore College Rangerettes. The internationally famous drill team is known for its outstanding showmanship and yes, the high kick, the group’s hallmark. But behind all the glamour and glory is a dedicated and hardworking troupe of young ladies Tradition is a big part of the Rangerettes. Everything they do has a meaning. “Tradition helps make a group stronger,” states Deana Bolton, director of the Rangerettes. Some of these well-established traditions include ruby red lipstick and stage makeup. Rangerettes wear this so even spectators sitting in the top of the stands can see their facial features and not just a mouthful of teeth. Have you also noticed how a freshman’s hair shines more than a sophomore’s? This isn’t accredited to a new shampoo either. A bridgework of bobby pins is entwined in their hair. Every ‘Rette’s hat is held on by numerous bobby pins during a performance and freshmen wear the pins in order to become accustomed to them Maybe you’ve noticed a freshman •Rette scrambling to open a door for a superior. What probably got your attention was the way she said, “Hello Miss So and So, goodbye Miss So and So!” as if it were all one word. This is called running doors and every freshman must do this for a sophomore. Remember, everything they do has a meaning. All this discipline teaches new Rangerettes respect for authority. A few traditions have been relaxed. For example, you won’t hear the fight song after 8 p.m. in Davis Hall anymore, now there is some peace for those who do homework. Since only sophomore ‘Rettes have the power to make a freshman Rangerette do the fight song on spot, more freshmen than ever arc getting to class on time. Last year, anyone could give the roll off and have them sing and clap. You would see a ‘Rette all decked out in bobby pins and identifying sign singing on the way to class, an hour later the same freshman would still be there singing and clapping. Some tradition breaks arc worth it. The second key word is precision. Practice makes perfect. Like jewelers buffing and smoothing rough edges off raw diamonds, Mrs. Bolton and Laura Davis, Rangerette choreographer and assistant director, strive to make their “gemstones” sparkle with timed 26 Obvious tension and excitement are apparent for potential Rangerette freshmen. An early Rangerette practice and high kick. ...that’s what it’s all about accuracy. Constant stretching helps to develop the muscles used in all performances. One wonders how Rangerettes can manage to smile after jumping and landing in the splits or kicking so high that they might break a nose. Most spectators find themselves in pain just watching them. In their strive for perfection, ‘Rettes practice on the average of 11 Zi hours per week. They only receive one credit. On Held practice days, section rehearsals take place in addition to the chance to perform with the Ranger Band. Sometimes, wet conditions yield muddy leotards, skin, and hair; but what’s a little dirt when you’re trying to be your best? Of the 65 Rangerettes, 53 march at halftime and 12 stay in the stands. They are not being punished, ignored, or left with the audience because they weren’t wearing enough bobby pins. If more than 53 march, the line “weaves.” The only time all 65 march is in parades. All the planning, hardwork, and dedication have helped make the Rangerettes what they are. Remember, practice makes perfect. The third and final key word in the Rangerette trilogy is fellowship. Each officer is responsible for at least 12 girls plus the girls not on the line. In addition to this, every sophomore has oncor two freshman “little sisters” and they usually become fast friends. Sometimes they even seem to begin to look alike. A big sister is a big help to new freshmen. They comfort their little sisters, help them when they are down and also they are someone to turn to and look up to. They arc more like a best friend. Sophomores have been described a big sis and mom all rolled up in one. Sophomores can also relate to what the freshmen are going through. Living in Davis Hall is an experience in itself. The Little Old Lady Who Lived In a Shoe must have been the house mother with all-girl kids. An observer gets the idea that Davis Hall is comparable to a mall. Rangerettes shop in their neighbors’ closets. No privacy is something you learn to get used to. Do the doors at Davis Hall ever close, or are they nailed open? The tradition, precision, and fellowship continue as the years roll on. A few changes here and there will inevitably occur. But meanwhile chapter 46 of the seemingly unending Rangerette saga continues. Stay tuned until tomorrow... -by Kelli Vance 27 Summer band gets hot! -by Kelli Vance AUGUST. It’s nearing the end of summer and a light breeze is floating through the early evening air. Soft music finds its way to your ears as you drive through town. Your radio is off and the window is down. You turn a corner and the music gets louder. Twisting roads and a couple of wrong turns finally bring you to R. E. St. John Memorial Stadium. There it is. The Kilgore College Ranger Band. You park your car among the others, which aren’t parked in any sort of logical order, then you walk past the gates and to the practice field. Standing near the end zone, you witness what seems to be mass chaos. The band is learning a new drill for the first game of the season. You wish you were in band. SEPTEMBER. You decide to go to a KC pep rally since you heard the music three miles away again. You find that pep rallies arc unique indeed. A pep rally is spirit put to music and cheers with a beat. You leave the pep rally with a smile on your face and four free footballs to boot. You notice the band is still playing and you wish you were still in the stands with them. OCTOBER. It’s the middle of football season and you and your date go to the Homecoming game. You memorize the music to the fight song before the half. Band must really be fun. Halftime was really unique. The band literally ran onto the field with balloons in hand. The Rangcrcttcs danced on oil derricks. And a trip to Nice, France, was announced and then everyone on the field really got excited. Now you really wish you were in band. Third quarter is sheer entertainment. The Bud song is a favorite. You laugh at the Tut routine and listen as the brass and woodwinds sing unusual songs in harmony. They are like one big family. The percussion section keeps the band on its feet with a series of drum cadences that make you want to get up and dance. You are seriously thinking of getting into the band. NOVEMBER. Football season is winding down and marching season is almost over. The fall semester is nearing an end and again you hear the band practicing across town for the Cotton Bowl. It’s almost more than you can take. You decide to enroll in band for the spring semester. You finally get your wish. Above:The band and Rangcrcttcs practice the first drill of the season.

KC Theatre French satire deals with imposters It is an age-old problem. Con artists pose as men of the Cloth to cheat innocent people of their wealth. Sound familiar? The situation just described happened over 300 years ago in Moliere’s 17th Century comedy Tartuffe. A wealthy man, Orgon, is the victim of the swindler’s deceptions. Orgon takes Tartuffe into his home and persists his family to follow the fraud’s teachings. Meanwhile, Orgon’s daughter is promised to Tartuffe, although she is already engaged. When the truth about Tartuffe comes to light, the family tries to convince Orgon that he has been duped. All of this is in vain. Orgon is already on the edge of financial ruin. Things don’t change much in 300 years. The five day production in Van Cliburn Auditorium featured the 12 member cast as follows: Tartuffe, by Lancaster sophomore, Paul Bochmer; Adam Rogers, Pottsboro freshman, as Orgon; Belinda Burgin, Daingerfield sophomore, as Mmc. Pernelle; Tony Hill, Longview freshman, as Cleante; and Suzi Lang, Rockwall sophomore, as Dorine. Also, Danny Moss, Longview freshman, as M. Loyal; Jackie Whitt, Longview freshman as Elmire; Steve Morris, Rockwall freshman, as Damis; Amy Sinks, Grand Praric freshman, as Flipote; Kim Barker, White Oak freshman, as Mariane; Paul Hill, Longview sophomore, as Valere; and Alan Pickard, Longview freshman, as a police officer. The KC Theatre students prepared for Tartuffe early in the fall semester. Each Saturday was spent constructing the set which mainly comprised of furniture. Staircases and backdrops were unnecessary since the play was produced “in the round”. 30 3) Above: Dorinc brings Valcre (Paul Hill) and Marianc (Kim Barker) back together.

Set uring the Depression in the small own of Zion, two characters imultaneously face this problem and he difficulties in trying to overcome it. Buddy Layman is a young boy -hose life changed drastically when his lother drowned while trying to save im. He blames himself and becomes o obsessed with a fear of water, he cfuses to bathe and is terrified at the ound of rain. The youngster even cfcrs to himself in the third person. Ironically, Buddy has the ability to find water with a divining rod. C.C. Showers has a similar dilemma. The preachcr-turncd-mcchanic breaks under the pressures of society and walks out in the middle of a sermon. He runs away from his problem and his town hoping to escape his troubles. Buddy and Showers cross paths in Zion where Showers begins work for Buddy’s father as a mechanic. One day. Buddy gets into poison ivy. Showers attempts to get him to bathe his feet in the river. Showers realizes that helping Buddy to overcome his fear of water may help himself to face society again. In a streak of irony, Buddy tries to overcome his phobia and tries the river. He is pulled into the water by an undertow. Meanwhile Showers is trying to persuade the villagers that he does not want to be a preacher. The production according to Bill Ballard was a challenge. The play utilized 10 settings on six acting areas. Patrick Clark, Kilgore sophomore, portrayed Buddy Layman. Adam Rogers, Pottsboro freshman, played C.C. Showers. Above and below:Getting schedule cards is long and tedious Registration marks a new beginning The time came when thousands of people, still bronzed from the summer sun, packed into one of KC’s most popular places, the library. Registration once again proved to be an experience. During those three long days of running around trying to figure out a schedule that would best work, one could almost spot a rookie student. Even if a student had made out a trial schedule, he could probably expect to change it because the class he wanted would probably be filled. Although the library was a hoarde of confused people, enrollment was down 13 percent as compared to last fall, according to Joe B. Crueseturner, registrar. More students are taking art-oriented courses as opposed to hi-tech courses of last semester. Tuition, fewer graduating high school seniors and the opening of the new North East Texas Community College contributed greatest to KC’s enrollment decline, according to the registrar. But, he quickly pointed out that enrollment will increase in the next few years when the declining factors reverse. -by Mike Zimmerman Above: Lamar Tankersley helps student with money problems, below: A student checks trial schedule while others bustle by. 35 Ranger Band introduces the Rangcrettes Assembly introduces organizations Who’s Who is tradition on KC campus 3« The annual Who’s Who Assembly at KC is held to recognize teams, cheerleaders, campus organizations, and other prominent students on campus. New and old faces are introduced to the campus and public. It is traditionally the assembly that sets off the school year. The assembly was touched off with a performance by the Chorale and was followed with a welcome by Carl Ray Polk, SAC President. The entertaining hour included performances by the Ranger Band, cheerleaders, Rangerettes, and majorettes. Right, from left- Journalism instructor Bcttyc Craddock.

The Ranger Band ran onto the field to begin its drill, the Rangcrcttes danced on eight-foot oil derricks-and a trip to Nice, France was announced, which was followed by deafening cheers. Pre-game festivities included the presentation of the 1985 Homecoming Court. With bated breath and tension suspended in the air, the queen was proclaimed. Jackie Sarabia, a Houston sophomore, won her bid in the Homecoming race. Ms. Sarabia was escorted by Skip Stanger of Overton. Her court was comprised of four sophomore nominees. They included: Sandra McClure, Dallas; Lora Miller, Corpus Christi; Nichole Perry, Henderson; and Jill Willard, Henderson. The KC Rangers faced Ranger Junior College in a game that denied KC a Homecoming victory, but did not lessen the pride of the home crowd in its team.

KC captures TEAC crown Ladies are‘AWESOME’ against Tyler! When TJC player Lisa Thompson’s shot from 70 feet went wide to the right, seven years of frustration came to an end. The KC Lady Rangers had captured their first ever Region XIV North Zone Title with a heart-stopping 77-76 victory over the Tyler Junior College Lady Apaches in KC’s Masters Gym. The pictures on these two pages are samples of the emotion that swept over the Ladies and their fans at the end of the game. At the time of publication the Lady Rangers were preparing to face the Temple Junior College Lady Leopards in Temple on March 3. The second game was scheduled to be played in Masters Gym on the KC campus. It had been determined that if the Lady Rangers won both games they would compete in national play in Senatobia, Miss. 41 When it ’s time to relax... College does not have to be all work and no play. Intramurals provide students with a chance to be with friends away from the classroom. It is a chance to relax with friendly competition. KC’s intramural sports program consists of many activities for both men and women, including a Co-Rec program, over a seven month span. The fall brings football, golf, tennis and volleyball, as the spring has softball and basketball. Racquetball and billiards are played both semesters. Terry Freese and John Rossum, (intramural staff) encourage students to participate in the intramural programs. The staff’s goal is to offer a sports and recreation program that will give each individual an opportunity to enjoy leisure time; and to promote the educational objectives of KC by providing education experiences through physical activity, social Avovc: Terry Freese explains the options for an offensive penalty. Below: Jim Barron keeps the ball in play against a ready opponent during tournament play. involvement and competition for all individuals. All went according to plan this year except the tennis ladder competition. The many unexpected rainy days extended the play much longer than expected into the Winter season. If a student does not wish to organize a team but wishes to play on one, he must contact one of the intramural supervisors. A student who wants to know more about the intramural program can pick up the Handbook of Intramural Sports at the Student Services Building or the Student Center.

Its name had a ring of formality and distance from the “real” world of fun and good times. But, like waiting for an earthquake, not much is done until the last days or even minutes. During the last week (it used to be called DEAD week) students began to whisper only its first name, FINALS, in the hushed halls and serious classrooms at KC. FINALS was greeted with mixture of student types. The organized and prepared were recognizable. They looked and sounded normal, even chipper as they hustled from class to class with a look of snobbish preparation and confidence. The unsure looked maniac, at once cheerful but depressed. Then, there were those who were “blowing it off” entirely with remarks like, “ Well, I’m just going to take it (the final) and not worry. I’ll really do much better next semester.” Right- Desiree Livaudais wrestles with a question on one of her finals while below another student seems to be using the wrong end of the pencil too much. 45 Pledging — At Kilgore College one gets used to hearing the roll off to the fight song. To freshmen pledges it means “stop what you are doing and start singing and dancing.” Pledging doesn’t end there, however. Pledges learn to fry like bacon, they address “actives” as Mr. or Miss, and they dress as their superiors instruct them. These humiliating experiences are endured in order to become eligible to remove a beenie from his her head and become a Delta or Beta ‘active.’ The freshmen don’t seem to mind it because they feel it is all in the spirit of fun and they keep in mind that next year it will be their turn to give the commands. Beta actives speak softly but carry big sticks. A pledge takes his photosynthctic girl to a pep rally. It’s Army Fatigue Day in Delta land. 46 47 Dorm Life Movin’ out, away and in the dorm The first day of your new life away from home probably started off with a view to a parking lot jam-packed with cars, buses, and rental trailers. Probably everything short of giant moving vans was here, there, and a quarter of a mile down the narrow street of your new home. Maybe the first few days of dorm life made you feel like one of the Old Lady in the Shoe’s kids. Maybe you feel like an orphan in the city’s largest orphanage. Maybe you are beginning to like your new abode. After all, you get to meet gobs of new and interesting people. You even get to cat out every day. Cafeteria food can be very interesting. What’s privacy? No one knows anymore. Lonlincss? What’s that?! So far, dorm existence is pretty (continued on pg.50) Above: Not what it seems, but a good place to store clothes and at the same time gain a laugh from visitors Below: Craig Roundtree (left) and Perry Weaks take a little time out to study for fall finals. 48 Above: Some students watch television or socialize in the lounge of the Hi-Rise Women’s Dormitory.

(continued from px. 48) interesting. It’s amazing how people can be so similar and so different at the same time. You realize after a semester or two passes, you’ll be able to tunc out anything when you sleep. Now it’s possible for you to sleep late on a Saturday morning while your kid brother insists on watching the Smurfs with the sound turned all the way up. Being on your own is pretty scary when you are not used to it. Imagine, doing your own laundry! What color goes with what? What temperature do you use? I need to borrow someone’s iron, or a hammer to bang out the wrinkles in my shirt! Things really get confused at times, but it’s all a part of growing up and realizing you’re going to be on your own someday soon. A roommate can become your closest friend. Sometimes a roomie shares the same interests and problem; Sometimes your comrade helps yo with your homework. Roommates at all a part of the college expcrienct Differences in opinion arc not unusua Maybe that’s why your room resemble an episode of the Odd Couple. Fc many reasons, your roommate can b your friend for life. It’s the end of the year, and the sam chaotic scene from the first of the yea returns once again. Cars that at stuffed to the rivets with clothe; suitcases, and micellaneous items seer ready to pop at the slightest touch Saying goodbye until next year or fo good is hard, especially when yo realize you arc leaving with more tha you arrived with in the first place, i more ways than one. Roomies can make the difference Above: Angela Wright carries on her conversation while Gail Richtcn (left), Shawn Ground and Angcliquc Bicnvcnuc (sitting) wait to talk to their men.

Finance had the highest priority with the Select Committee on Higher Education, recruitment, and institutional advancement running a close race behind, according to Dr. Stewart McLaurin, KC president. Due to the three to four percent budget cuts for colleges statewide, KC had to tighten its purse strings. The main reason for the cut was the slowdown in Texas oil production which is the state’s major financer of higher iducation. Another issue was the Select Committee on Higher Education, a state review board responsible for clamping down on higher education. Of the reported $3 billion in available state school funds, KC receives $14-15 million per biennium. Funds increase when contact hours go up. It was uncertain what measures would be taken that will affect this funding. Institutional advancement was applied at KC recently. Through advertising, fund raisers, and benefits, the school was carried to the people. In turn, the public was informed of the opportunities KC has to offer. The concept of institutional marketing was brought into sharper focus during 1985-86. In the near future, an “on hands’’ child development course will be offered. The courses proposed will helpmeet the demand for trained persons in the profession. A two-year degree will be available with plans to develop a day care center in the Fashion Merchandising building and the grounds surrounding it. It will run the same daily hours as the college. Finally, Dr. McLaurin stated that KC is “fortunate to have a faculty that is dedicated to educating people. We are pleased to operate an open door institution with the fine help given by dedicated faculty. 55 56 O. G. Johnston Board has broad responsibilites The legal control of this institution is vested in the nine member Kilgore College Board of Trustees. The board etermines policies which govern the college operations nd activities. Members are elected for six year terms by he voters of the Kilgore College district. This district icludes the cities of Kilgore, Overton, West Rusk, iladewater, Sabine, White Oak and Leverette’s Chapel. Jpon recommendation by the President of Kilgore .'ollege, the board hires all members of the faculty, rofessiona! staff and administration for Kilgore College. The board has a broad set of responsibilities. The xternal functions of the group arc to represent the ommunity and interpret social trends in terms of James E. Muckleroy institutional policies; to obtain funds for the operation and extension of the institution; and to bear the legal responsibility and authority for all aspects of operation of the collgc. The board’s internal functions include responsibility for final determination of institutional policies, confirming or rejection such matters as establishment of scales of tuition and fees. The selection of a president is the most important single act of a board of trustees. The board is a policy-making body, not an executive agency. The board approves such things as major building projects, annual budget and audit, new faculty and administration and plant renovation projects. Adrian Dozier Deans and Administrators Dr. R.

The one and two-year programs prepare students for employment upon graduation. The four-year students receive courses which transfer to major universities. Many students in business and couputer science evening courses already have degrees and jobs but are updating or upgrading their knowledge and skills. The business and data processing curriculum is currently comprised of 55 courses, several of which, such as computer literacy, have recently been added. As part of a continuous effort to keep up with changes in technology, the division recently added 30 microcomputers and 36 electronic typewriters to its laboratories and replaced its older mainframe computer with a new, more technologically advanced superminicomputer, which will have 60 video display terminals available for student use. The business and data processing programs have experienced a strong enrollment in recent years as students become increasingly aware of the many excellent job opportunities in these fields. This trend is expected to continue in the future.

Also included are journalism, of which The Flare, the student newspaper, is a product and broadcasting, of which KCTV cable television station is a product. New equipment and new techniques are utilized to keep both these programs abreast of industry. Communmications courses have many aims. They seek to improve the basic reading, writing and composition skills of the average student while giving students a chance to realte individual thoughts and creative ideas. Another goal accomplished by communications is seen in the self-discipline utilized by its students in their studies. This self-discipline will carry over later by proving to be a valuable characteristic sought by employers. 101 Engineering Science Division ES strives for university standards In addition to offering the fundamental science courses such as biology, chemistry, physics and geometry, the Engineering-Science Division of Kilgore College also offers courses in both math and engineering. The math courses offered include algebra, analytic geometry and calculus while the traditional engineering courses, graphics, engineering analysis, surveying and statistics, are also taught. The majority of these programs are turned toward the benifit of the prcprofcssional students of medicine, dentistry and engineering. By maintaining awareness of, and implanting the most modern teaching methods, the Engineering-Science division hopes to reach its goal of meeting the ever changing needs of its students. A self set goal of the ES instructors is to get to know their students better.

Fine Arts Division Performance stressed in fine arts Kilgore College has a three-fold aim when they consider how to best benefit a college student with this integral part of his total education. The first aim is to provide a learning environment that is realistic in terms of the fitness conscious society in which we live today. A wide range of activities are offered in a wholesome setting to provide all students an opportunity to become a part of this movement as an active participant. The second aim is to provide experiences that foster positive changes in a student’s feeling about himself. Self-discipline, confidence, and pride can be gained through meeting physical challenges in a way that no other form of expression can provide. Kilgore College strives to challenge physical education students regardless of their level of development when they arrive on campus, whether it be through the learning of new skills, or improving some already possessed. The third aim of the Physical Top- Art students practice on live model. bottom-Acting class rehearses for the spring play. 105 Health and Physical Education Division offers challenge, opportunities As Kilgore College embarks upon its second half-century of service to its students the Division of Health and Physical Education continues its efforts to provide something for everybody. Physical and social needs of each individual vary, and a wide range of activities are made available both on and off campus to satisify these needs. Team sports provide opportunities to work with others and share common goals. They help each student to identify and better understand social skills that others appreciate. Individual and self-testing are gained through dedication to task, tenacity and plain hard work. Aquatic activities provide conditioning skills that can lead to a lifetime of safe leisure and recreation. Individual sports provide students with skills that can give a lifetime of healthy physical and social activities. Regardless of the activities selected, a student learns something about him or herself that only physical activity can provide. 104 Opposite page, lop- KC students learn self-defense in one of (he Karate classes offered, opposite page, bottom- Dr. Richard Fothcrgill demonstrates a technique in swimming class at the KC pool, this page, left- Health and physical education classes provide weight (raining with several types of resistance devices, this page, above- Raquetball is one of the most popular activities. 107 Social Sciences Division Six areas offered by social science The Social Science Division offers courses designed to meet requirements for graduation from state-supported colleges and universities in Texas. These courses, which include anthropology, geography, government, history, psychology and sociology, provide the foundation for meeting degree requirements for social science and other liberal arts majors. The use of field trips, lectures by guest speakers and the extensive use of audio-visual facilities to supplement its courses allows the students to gain first-hand knowledge of their subject. Small class sizes are average for the Social Science Division enabling teachers to work more on a one-to-one basis with the student.

Krenik calmly stepped up and booted a 43 yard field goad with 10 seconds remaining in the game, enabling the Cardinals to escape with a 31-31 tie. Opening game jitters got the best of the Rangers early and on the second play of the young season, Clifton Thurmond hooked up with Baron Berry on what seemed to be a four yard gain.

KC then caught on fire marching 6 yards aided by a 52-yard run by Pau Butler, as Berry scored on Thurmond' 14-yard pass.

The game had a little bit of everything-KC’s offense at its best, KC’s offense at its worst. The game was marred witrh 245 yards in penalities and a bench clearing brawl at the end of the game. But on this night the Rangers had more than enough to defeat Blinn. Clifton Thurmond provided most of the punch hitting on 8 of 12 passes and making two touchdowns in the first half. The initial score came on the first drive of the game as Thurmond hit Barron Berry who made a circus catch and raced 39 yards for the score. The next score came early in the second period as the familiar Thurmond--to-Berry connection hooked up again, this time from 15 yards out. Steve Greene plowed in from three yards out on the next possession which was set up by a Prince Raymond interception. Nearing the end of the first half, Paul Butler put the finishing touches oh a drive with a four yard run. And KC had grabbed a 28-0 lead at intermission. Sparked by 209 yards total offense in the first half the Rangers gave Coach Jim Miller plenty of reason to smile. The second half proved to be a def-fensivc struggle. Blinn however did manage to score late in the fourth period. Kilgore finished with 289 yards total offense and had 18 first downs. Blinn was held to 150 yards total offense and 9 first downs, period.

Joey Martain added the PAT to give he Bulldogs a 7-0 lead. Kilgore marched deep into Bulldog territory, but the Rangers were forced to attempt a 43 yard field goal, and Vance Hale nailed it to cut the Navarro lead to 7-3. Later, Hale booted his second field goal of the night. This time he hit it from 47 yards out to narrow the Bulldog lead to 7-6 with 8:09 remaining in the first half. A one yard quarterback sneak by Milton McGrigg put Navarro up 13-6 at the half. But the curcial point after attempt by Joey Martain sailed wide to the left. The second half proved to be a defensive struggle until Clifton Thurmond who hit on 9 of 16 passes for 115 yards drove the Rangers down the field where Paul Butler finished it off with a three yard run that capped a nine play, 80 yard drive. Rather than going for the tic, Ranger head coach Jim Miller decided to gamble and go for two. And, the gamble paid off. KC totaled 235 yards in offense compared to Navarro’s 184.

HALT- A Kilgore defensive play«r Kilgore bogs down against RJC Just when it looked as if Kilgore had pieced the puzzle together, along came Ranger Junior College. KC had racked up a passing game average of well over 100 yards. But being limited to a mere 41 yards passing it was little wonder the KC Rangers fell victims to RJC Rangers 10 6 in front of a homecoming crowd at R.E. St. John Memorial Stadium. After trading punts on the first possessions RJC got on the board with 3:18 left in the opening period when Danny Saenz split the uprights from 39 yards out to give RJC a 3-0 lead. It looked as if RJC was going to score again late in the second quarter, but quarterback Ronnie Mayberrry was hit and fumbled the ball into the endzone where Derrick Wiggins fell on it to kill the drive. Saenz’s field goal stood up and RJC went in at intermission with a 3-0 lead over KC. Ranger took the second half kickoff and marched 91 yards in nine plays climaxing on an eight yard run by Robert Mergerson. Saenz added the PAT and Ranger had increased their lead to 10 ). After mustering only one first down on their first two drives of the second half, KC marched right down the field 80 yards in eight plays with Paul Butler finishing the drive off with a four yard run. The drive was aided by a 50 yard scamper by Clifton Thurmond. Vance Hale very uncharacteristically missed the point after, his first miss of the season. KC had cut the RJC lead to 10-6 and looked as if they would take the lead. On their next possession they marched down to the RJC five yard line, but a Paul Butler fumble killed the drive. On the night KC totaled 246 yards in total offense and 11 first downs. RJC mirrored KC with 246 yards in total offense and had 16 first downs. 128 Rangers whip No. 1 ranked NEO Will the real KC Rangers please stand up?

Northeastern Oklahoma 14-7 in front of a partisan crowd at R.E. St. John Memorial Stadium. It looked as though NEO would retain their top ranking when they took their second possession and went 82 yard in 10 plays climaxing on a two yard run by Steve Colwell. Randy McGuirrc was perfect on the PAT and with 8:59 left in the opening period it was NEO up 7-0. A Brian Robberson recovery of a NEO fumble at the KC 32 yard line spurred the Rangers on a drive that covered 68 yards in 12 plays. The final blow was a nine yard Clifton Thurmond-to-Barron Berry scoring strike in which Berry did a beautiful tight rope act on the back of the endzone. Vance Hale knotted the score with his PAT and midway through the second quarter the game was tied 7-7. Nathaniel Lewis muffed a Derek Converse punt early to the third quarter. It took KC only two plays with the familiar Thurmond-to-Berry combination. This time they connected from 25 yards out. When Vance Hale nailed the PAT, the scoring was complete. KC’s defense did the job the rest of the night. The Golden Norsemen did manage 324 in total offense and 16 first downs. But KC’s 12 first downs and 205 yards in total offense proved enough to preserve the upset. KC, who improved their record to 3-2-1 in this contest, was led in the rushing department by Paul Butler with 78 yards on 20 carries.

After defeating Tyler on their own ground, KC was just one-half of a game behind first place Jacksonville. 139 14-13;9-7 At season’s end Sporting an unblemished home court record, the KC Rangers were upended by the Angelina Roadrunners before a partisan crowd in Masters Gym. The Rangers came back to conference action and upset, at that time league leading, Henderson County Cardinals 64-58. Kim Zurcher led the way for the Rangers with 24 points. The Rangers improved on their conference at 5-3. The Rangers then hosted the Navarro Bulldogs with hopes of avenging an early season setback and they did just that. Kim Zurcher’s 26 along with Anthony Armstrong’s 23, led the KC ballclub to a 74-69 overtime victory. The win increased the Rangers overall record to 11-8. The impossible was achieved once again, as the KC Rangers upset the Tyler Apaches for the second time this season, 62-61 in a typical KC-TJC barnburner in Tyler. Kim Zurcher tossed in a game high 27, while Robert Nash added 21 for the Rangers, whose winning streak increased to four games. The Rangers were thinking tournament, as the Lon Morris Bearcats fell victims to the fiesty group of young men who always played above their heads. Hard times hit KC as the Panola Ponies spoiled the Rangers five game win streak, along with sinking everything they shot to defeat the Rangers 72-61. The Jacksonville Jaguars proved rude hosts as they handed the Rangers their second straight loss 93-84. The Rangers collected their final victory of the season in their final home game of the season, defeating the Paris Dragons 71-66. Kim Zurcher once again led KC with 20 points. A Cinderalla story came to an abrupt end, as the Rangers dropped their final two conference games of the year to Angelina and Henderson county to close out first year’s head coach Roger Schnepp’s season at 14-13 and 9-7 in conference play.

Hudson once again led the Lady Rangers with 23 points while Karanda Jackson led PJC with 20. KC at Paris The Paris Lady Dragons proved an easy opponent as the Lady Rangers dismantled them 94-56. Marsha Morneau scored a team high 28 points as KC improved their conference record to 3-0. The Lady Rangers built a 20 point lead by the half and cruised on to the easy 38 point victory.

Breaking into the nation’s top 20 for the first time in KC history, the Ladies lived up to their number 19 ranking.

The victory improved the Ladies season standing to 16-4 and kept their conference slate spotless at 5-0. All good things must come to an end, and the Lady Ranger’s perfect conference record gained a flaw, as the Lady Apaches from Tyler pulled off a 66-62 coming from behind to win over KC before a packed house in Tyler’s Waystaff Gym on the TJC campus. The Lady Apaches fought off a ten point deficit in the final ten minutes. The Lady Rangers got back on the right track with a convincing 96-78 win over the Panola Fillies in Masters Gym. The win improved the KC record to 18-6. The Paris Lady Dragons proved a very easy opponent, as the Lady Rangers walked all over the Paris team 91-67. The ladies had to erase an early lead by Paris, but behind the scoring of Teresia Hudson, along with Shanna Clayton, the Ladies went on to record a 24 point win. After already securing a tournament position, the Lady Rangers busted the Angelina Lady Roadrunners 90-80 in overtime. The AC team proved no match in the extra period, as the Lady Rangers hit on all cylinders to improve on their best record ever, 21-6. With a chance to sneak into the tournament, the Henderson County Lady Cardinals pulled the upset of the year, defeating the Lady Rangers 87-86 in a heartstopper that wasn’t decided until the final buzzer. The Lady Rangers ended the regular season and headed into tournament action with their best record in the seven years of the ladies program at 21-7.

After defeating the Henderson County Lady Cardinals by two points early in the season and later losing to them by just one in the last regular season game, they felt they had something to prove. And prove it they did to the tune of 72-48 rout over the Lady Cardinals to put KC into the championship game with Tyler. Deborah ‘Stretch’ Richardson led the way for KC with 21 points while Teresia Hudson added 19 and Marsha Morneau had 16. The ladies broke open a close contest in the second half connecting on 62 percent of their shots from the field while HCJC could not buy a basket.

The Kilgore College Flare is a professional organization that publishes a weekly paper of eight to twelve pages. First year journalism students are assigned beats where they learn the basics of news gathering. Students learn who to contact and how, what questions to ask, how to conduct an in- terview and what to look for in news. Second-year studies intensify as the journalism students learn the skills of newspaper design and layout and the development of individual style. The journalism students learn the basics of layout in editing classes. Students are taught the standard rules of headline writing, proofreading and page design. The prospective journalists also gain comprehensive experiences in the fundamentals of print advertising. The Flare students receive “hands-on” experience in every aspect of newspaper production. The student editorial staff makes assignments, students write the stories and lay out the paper. The Flare is printed by the Kilgore News Herald. Use of a Com-pugraphic Editwriter 7500, a typesetting machine used by many newspapers around the country, is also included along with a printer. The KC journalism department offers an Associate’s degree in journalism. 185 186 Rangerettes venture to a Rangerettes. People from far and wide have come to recognize the famous drill team. Even the city of Nice, France had heard of the Rangerettes. The city on the southern coast of the country invited the ‘Rettes to be a part of the biggest party of the year--The Nice Carnival. The Rangerettes and the Ranger Band, being representatives of the West, performed routines reminiscent of Texas. According to the French, everyone wears cowboy hats, boots, and carries guns around his waist.” It was only fitting that the Rangerettes do one of their routines with pistols. The uniforms speak for themselves. The Rangercttc trademark has made its impression on Texas, the United States, and the world.

Printed paper, pictures, glue, etc. are the finished product of six months of hard work by a dedicated staff. One of the best reasons of being on staff is that you know you had a part in the publication of nearly 2,500 books. Not many people can say that of their years in college. Ranger staffers learn to use a computer typesetter for printing, learn the basic types of layouts and how to proportion photographs. This training experience can be useful in that yearbook training can be used on a job application. It is also an outlet for creativity. Being on staff brings a chance to meet many interesting people you ordinarily wouldn’t meet as a regi student. You also stay on top campus news and activities. The Ranger staff is therefore proud to introduce its 1986 yearbo We sincerely hope you enjoy readir as much as we enjoyed putting together. 190 The consequences for a late deadline can be rather harsh...

Inset: A rare moment of (almost) inactivity for the souped-up canine. by Midge Hileman There’s a female who hangs out a lot at the mens’ dorm. She’s popular. She’s playful. She has four legs. She’s a dog. Her name belies her sex. Ranger Dog, but she has become a favorite campus pet. Paul Butler, Jefferson sophomore and KC football running back, tagged the canine with the heroic title, and though she often visits the mens’ dorm at feeding time, she can be seen anywhere there may be students. According to some students Ranger Dog has a searching look on her long face, as if she is looking for her lost master, but, at the time of this writing, no one had claimed the dog. So, for now Ranger Dog appears happy to spend her days loping across campus looking for an occassional handout and a pat on the head. Boaze, Jerry B. Marshall Bock. Mary F. White Oak Bock, Richard E.

Leander Of Palm Trees, Beaches, and Biology “We want REAL junk food!” This was the reaction given by rropical Biology 248 students upon returning from a ten-day trip lo Placencia, Belize in Central America in May of 1985 Peggy Howard and Sharon Cox, KC biology professors took an envoy of twelve students and a dive master to this tropical country so that they might be able to experience hands-on marine biology, rain forests and tropical habitats plus a chance to observe the native culture. With bchind-ear seasick patches that slowly released medicine into the skin, they were ready to go. The operators of the Tropical Learning Center, Skip and Chris White, were the hosts. All meals were eaten at the Turtle Inn restaurant which resembled one of the grass huts on Gilligan’s Island. One would expect a real problem with insects. The only time a problem arose occured when the usually hot tropical breeze would come to an almost standstill, then the sand flies would collect blood samples. Very few luxuries, such as cars, McDonald’s, and the Weekly Top Forty were not available. There is very little radio and television. The travelers soon grew tired of fish. No food is imported, the natives live off the land. Entertainment was provided by the locals and a pet parrot named Rainbow. On one occasion the feathered creature became inebriated and proceeded to fall off his perch. The trip to Belize was educational as well as fun for those who participated. Plans for another Belize trip arc currently under way for the spring of 1986. by Kelli Vance Peggy Howard (center, in chair) and others enjoy a sunny day in tropical Belize.

She came to landlocked Kilgore College because it was small, personable and economical for her, she said, “...there’s a closer, more individualized attention given by the teachers here,’’ she explained. The five foot, eight inch coed who could find work as a model is a licensed boat captain who hails from many locations between Annapolis, Md. and Corpus Christi, Tx. Until this fall semester she spent most of her days plying the seas and coastal waterways on commercial and pleasure rigs ranging up to 100 tons. Reioux likes the wide open spaces, ocean spaces, where the weather can caress or sting and there is challangc and variety. She tried going to college several years ago in Corpus Christi, but ...did’t have the right attitude,0 she said. Speaking from what seemed to be lessons she had learned she said, “Students have to learn that what they do here is for life, and they have to make the effort it takes.” Though she has had to live in tiny quarters on board ships, it occasionally gets claustrophobic living in the high rise dorm cubical, she intimated. Reioux credits her room mate, Tonya Russell, with helping her to adjust to the East Texas college life. “She’s special,” she said. Upon finishing at KC Reioux has some ideas still in the planning stages. Continuing her education at Texas A M University, perhaps taking maritime classes is one possibility she has considered. But whatever she decides to do it would be a safe bet that Margaret Reioux won’t stray from water long enough to loose her sea legs. 215 Fennell, Deidra D. Kilgore Fenton, Denise M.

Separating eggs to you means putting more distance between them. Well then, Mother's Cookbook, by Kilgore College Communications Director Elwyn Bone, may be the help you need to cook your culinary concoctions. Originally the book was a wedding gift of typed lists of recipes and advice about procuring and preparing food for Mrs. Bone’s oldest daughter. But friends started asking for copies of the book” and her publisher brother-in-law convinced her to go public with it. Currently the book is in its third printing with almost 3,000 copies sold. It is a simple, straight-forward list of instructions to the beginner that assumes the reader has little experience in gathering the ingredients, selecting really cooks the tools, and planning the menus. Instructions about when to turn down the fire, how to check thc thickness”, pan size to use, etc. are spread throughout the first person commentary. There is even a list of items to purchase at the grocery store for a whole month of cooking. We’ve (Mrs. Bone and her husband) always been paid by the month, being teachers, and I made out 30 menus for 30 days of cooking for the family.” “They (her daughters) were really good cooks. They began helping and cooking from my instructions at five and nine years old,” she said. Mrs. Bone is compiling a new version of the book with about 200 additions that she thinks will be ready in one or two years. Gunn, Carolyn Kilgore Gunn. Charlotte Kilgore Gunn. Madalyn S.

Shannon Kelly Kilgore 222 Former pilot soars in new position Mike Early has given up his old lying job, but he wants to soar to new leights in his new position as director � f the Management and Occupational Services Division at Kilgore College. Early has spent many hours in the ky. Ten years he flew for the air force vilh one tour of Vietnam, and later he as a commercial pilot. So, why would nyone want to hang up the flight acket and give up this “glamorous and ucrative” life for a desk job? “There re more things to consider in a job han money. Living out of a suitcase ets old. It’s important to like coming o work in the morning,” Early xplained. Responsibilities for Early now ncluded supervision of these •rograms: child development, criminal ustice, real estate, fashion nerchandising, financial management, ndustrial management, mid- managemnet and industrial safety technician. Early aims to prevent what he calls stagnation of the educational programs in this “melting pot” division. Knowing the local economy’s condition and relating KC’s services to local business and industry is a very important function of the job, he indicated. “We have to go out now and let companies know what we can do for them, what type of training we can provide,” he said. In the future KC plans to work very closely with industry. For example, approximately 450 job applicants must be trained for Southern Plastics of Shreveport as part of their hiring procedure. This training will be done on the campus, but in-plant KC training can be arranged, too, he said. “Our instructors have experience; they have been in the field. The things our people teach they have done,” Early said. Specializing in supervising, management and industrial safety. Early believes that training students to be managers and supervisors requires that they learn to think rather than act out of emotion, being able to defend decisions. He has been a collective bargaining arbitrator, and brings “real world” experience in these problems to the classroom. The Longview native earned a bachelor and master’s degrees from Sam Houston State University and a master of science from the University of Texas at Tyler. While posing for the photograph in this article Early said that he has occasional longings to be back in the air, but believes that his feet are firmly planted to the ground. Hooks.

Sabine KC’s electronic ‘Hero’ to make Hero sits in the KC electronics lab everyday waiting for someone to come and visit. He is different from the students around him. Looking like a younger brother to the famous Star Wars R2D2, this gray cylindrical mass of wires, IC chips, lights and one mechanical arm is a new addition to KC’s electronic program. If you plan to vist him, call first, he may be asleep. Since being moved into the new Vo Tech building last spring, instuctors Bill Flowers and Keith Ballew have not been able to spend as much time with him as they would like. Because of the lack of attention, Hero is left in the “power down” mode (sleep mode) most of the time. When his power is running low Hero needs no help to perform this activity. When everything is operating properly, however. Hero can talk, move and write on the black board. He has 17 different modules, each with a separate purpose, as standard equipment. The chips enable Hero to have a rough equivalent to the human senses, but the ability to speak is perhaps his most life-like quality. Looking like the younger brother to the famous Star WarsR2D2, this cylindrical mass of wires, IC chips, lights and one mechanical arm is a new addition to KC’s electronic program. ...but the ability to speak is perhaps his most life-like quality. When Hero talks it’s not just prerecorded human words. He learns words by syllables, the same way a mother teaches her child to say “mama.” The electronic instructors plan to demonstrate Hero’s abilities in various college events. He was scheduled to show school spirit at a pep rally during the football season, but because of his technical problems he will probably wait until basketball begins to lead the students in a rousing cheer. He will be taught Ranger cheers by students in the electronics department, the instructors said. 226 debut this spring V0 RZ Kirkpatrick. Kelly R. Marshall Kissinger, Eric J. Longview Knapps.

It’s in the blood When sophomore head Rangcrcttc manager Kerry Martin says Rangerettes arc in his blood, he means it. A time period spanning thirty-nine years, off and on, has included several members of his family in the Rangerette program. Kerry’s great aunt, Helen Tackett Bullock, was the first to start this family “tradition.” Diane Kane, Kerry’s mother, was a 1962-63 ’Rette before she married and moved away. The last Rangerette was an aunt, Pam Wilkins, who was a 1967-69 Rangerette. All are in Rangerettes Forever, a group made up of ex-Rangerettes from as early as 1940 and as late as last year. Females aren’t the only ones involved with the famous drill team in the Martin family. Billy Owens, Kerry’s grandfather shares some of the credit. To set the record straight, Owens is not a ’Rette, but he builds the props for them. He is employed by Kilgore College and is a carpenter for Maintenance. He even built the eight-foot oil derricks the troupe used at this year’s Homecoming “After the Gold. ” When asked why he wanted to be a Rangerette manager, Kerry replied that another manager, Dwayne Mapes, inspired him. Another reason is that he has been going to KC football games and Revels to watch them perform ever since he can remember. He even saw his aunt perform. Besides, “my mom is one hundred percent Rangcrcttc,” laughs the marketing major. “She cried when she saw my car outside the building after I made manager!” Rangerette managers are responsible for taking care of props, sound equipment, and slight injuries such as pulled muscles. There are five managers. Each is in charge of twelve girls. The head manager is in charge of the officers and Mrs. Bolton, director of the Rangerettes. In order to become a manager, an application must be filled out and the applicant must have an adequate GPA. Also, a personal interview with Bolton is required. The freshman ’Rcttcs choose the managers for the coming year, -by Kelli Vance Mason, Darrell K. Kilgore Mason, Denise K. Tyler Mason, Jennifer L. Garland Mason. Lance Alan Longview1 Mason. Suzy R.

U.S. and Tex; government teacher. 2. cheerleader sponsor. 3.all-arour good guy. This is the definition of one of the most liked teachers the KC campus. LaTane Speer almost always has a mass « students protruding from her office. Whether the kids a after her Oreos or whether they just like to converse debatable. Probably a little of both. She can talk to someone sitting in front of her and someoi on the phone at the same time. She is also active in tl community. Speer is a member of the Kilgo Scsquicentennial committee, Charter commission, and tl Education committee of the Kilgore Chamber of Commerc Speer has also been the peerless sponsor of the K cheerleaders for 14 years. She determines the amount years by counting the pictures on her office wall « cheerleaders’ past. Her main objective of being at KC is tl students. She enjoys them, as is evident by the 15 years i teaching experience here at Kilgore. It is truly possible that a person can be a teacher, sponso and even a good friend - just don’t eat all of her Oreos! -by Kelli Van Parker. Randolf T. Rayville, La. Parker, Rebecca L.

KC’s intramurals may be the same as most other junior colleges in Texas - except the names arc as classic as Coca-Cola. The football team Cell Block seven does not consist of penitentiary inmates but its players live building seven of the men’s dorms. The Wesley Foundation’s football team, contrary to title, docs not Signa Phi Nothing. The guys in Oil and Gas club are Texas Crude and the Terminators play for keeps. Most teams have a reason for their names. Coors sponsors the Silver Bullets and three guesses as to who sponsors the Buds. This year, the Brew Crew II won the football championship. Wonder how they got their name? A volleyball team last year showed their sense of humor by naming themselves the Oreos. The team was half black and half white. Other strange names in the past have included the softball team Bulbalee B’s, the Brown Bruisers named for a phys ed teacher’s volleyball team. As the school year progresses, more leagues will be formed and more teams will need names. Keep a look out for them, they get more original every year. -by Kelli Vance 241 Seville. Sue A.

They are Patrick Clark of Kilgore and Tom Fox of Spring, Tx. Neither have been cheerleaders before. Clark has had many years of gymnastic training and Fox is currently learning. Both agree that their main reasons for trying out was to promote school spirit and to get in-depth involvement in student activities. With practice six hours a week Monday through Wednesday, the work is not complete. Thursday pep rallies and Saturday games wrap up a total of almost a full week of cheering. The end of football season marks the beginning of a new cheering season. Basketball. Behind the scenes, cheerleaders do more than jump and yell. They make all the spirit signs on the campus, give parties for the athletes, make locker tags for the players’ lockers, and more. Both Clark and Fox plan to attend the University of Texas at Austin upon graduation from Kilgore. They feel it is an honor to be cheerleaders at KJC and would like to encourage more guys to try out for cheerleader in the future.

Backstage the nervous excitement begins to reach fever pitch as last minute preparations are made. Posing suits are put on and bodies are oiled to a shine. Competition begins. One by one the sleek, perfectly toned bodies submit to the judges. The results of years of hard work and determination are about to be displayed. When the final judgement is made, the one body chosen as closest to perfection will reap the rewards of the long, grueling hours of work and discipline. Striving for the perfection required to compete in the highly competitive world of bodybulding is more than most people are willing to do. But for those who really “go for it”, the word is dedication. Like any sport, the dedication must be complete, sometimes coming before other possibly more enticing activities. To some people, pushing your body as far as it will go every day does not seem a very enjoyable way to spend your spare time. But to those who make the decision to live a life dedicated to the development and utmost care of their bodies, the rewards outweigh any negative aspects of the sport. An example of such a person is Mark Hanlon, a Freshman from Longview. Mark has been bodybuilding for approximately five years and still enthusiastically feels “It’s all worth it.” A typical schedule for Mark is a two and one half hour workout in the gym six days a week. Each workout session is dedicated to a special group of muscles, such as chest and triceps on one day, back, biceps, and shoulders on the next day and legs on the third day of the cycle which repeats itself. Competing in bodybuilding entails more than mere weight training. Strict diets must be followed, emphasizing different food groups for the needs of the body at a particular time. Supplements such as vitamins, protein, and amino acids to help the body stay in top performance shape are also part of the regimen required to keep up the strength of muscles pushed to the limit. “Especially right before a competion, you have to keep a positive mental attitude and focus only on your goal.” Mark truly believes in this and follows the philosophy to attain the goals he has set for himself. Some of the titles already attained by Mark are Mr. East Texas, The Mctroplex Classic, and Junior Southern States. He has also shown his work is worthwhile by placing third in South Central U.S.A., a prestigious regional competition and qualifying for Mr. U.S.A. The work may be hard and the hours long, but it is all worth it when, on competition day, you are the one of a very competitive group of athletes to be the epitomy of perfection in the development and definition of the human body. -by Christina Culwell 251 Tension mounts as students arc faced with the problem of choosing five Homecoming nominees.

Devall present President McLaurin a check for $30,000 that establishes the Lyde and Charles Devall Rangerette Scholarship Fund. funds scholarships for Rangerettes Mr. and Mrs. Charles K. Devall, two if Kilgore College’s strong supporters or 50 years, presented $30,000 to Cilgore College to establish the Lyde nd Charles Devall Rangerette icholarship Fund. The gift will be a permanent ndowment with income to be used to ssist in the funding of scholarships for tangerettes, said Dr. Stewart dcLaurin, KC president. Kilgore 'ollege currently has three other cholarships disignated for langerettes. “The Rangerettes have been a great iromotion for Kilgore College and for Cilgore,” Davall said. “I know the mportance of promoting. The college 5 going to need more and more cholarship money to adequately iromote the group in today’s highly ompetitive market,” he said. “You’re talking about one of my avorite subjects,” Devall added. Dr. McLaurin, in accepting the gift in behalf of Kilgore College, said, ‘We appreciate Mr. and Mrs. Devall or their contribution of 30,000 dollars o set up the Lyde and Charles Devall iangerette Scholarship Fund at Cilgore College. Their generosity will lelp ensure the continued success of he organization which they helped to iromote to international acclaim.” “On behalf of Kilgore College, the Cilgore College Rangerette irganization, and all future iangerettes who will benefit from this nost generous act,” he continued, “we iccept this gift and hereby set up the cholarship fund. We do so with deep .ratitude.” Devall, a native of Mt. Vernon, iccame a resident of Kilgore in 1935, our years after earning his degree in oumalism at The University of Texas. He established a weekly newspaper, the Kilgore Herald. Five years later he and Mrs. Devall purchased the Kilgore Daily News and consolidated the papers to form theA ews Herald. He served as publisher of the newspaper until his retirement in 1979, always promoting during those years Kilgore, the college, the Rangerettes and Ranger Band. Devall’s personal contacts throughout the state and nation helped open the doors for the Rangerettes to reach the level of recognition enjoyed today. “He promoted the Rangerettes for years,” Dr. McLaurin said. He opened the doors with the Cotton Bowl Athletic Association for our participation which now has lasted 35 years,” he added. Devall worked with Cotton Bowl and Dallas officials to see that Kilgore was represented in the parade and bowl game each year. “Kilgore had a friend who had a lot of influence and who arranged for the Rangerettes to appear in the Cotton Bowl show in 1949. They did real well, Devall said. “The next year they were invited to the Sugar Bowl. They did so well there that the Cotton Bowl insisted they come to Dallas every year. They got better every year, one honor led to another,” he related with pride. Lyde Devall, a Dallas native who earned two degrees at Southern Methodist University, was not without her contacts and influence in Dallas. An English teacher at Highland Park before the Devalls married, she listed among her former students Dallas Cowboys owner Bum Bright, former governor Bill Clements and Starke Taylor, current mayor of Dallas. Both have been influential in higher education across Texas. Lyde was appointed by Governor Allan Shivers to the board of regents of The University of Texas System and Devall served as a member of the original board of Texas Southern University. Both are founding members of the Chancellor’s Council of the University of Texas. It was Governor Shivers, through his relationship with the Devalls, who secured an invitation for the Rangerettes and Ranger Band to participate in the 1953 inauguration of President Eisenhower. In 1952, the Devalls recalled, the Rangerettes received their first big national exposure, appearing on Ed Sullivan’s “Toast of the Town” in New York. They also fondly remember a 1946 trip to the Little Rose Bowl in Pasadena, appearing before 52,000, the biggest crowd to that time to see a Texas football game. The game participants were Kilgore College and Compton, Calif. To these and other events like the Senior Bowl in Mobile, to New York for the Macy’s Parade, to Fort Worth, Houston, Shreveport, New Orleans or the All-Star football game in Chicago, constant travel companions of the Rangerettes were Lyde and Charles Devall. But both, after all these experiences, still look back to 1940 and the first appearance of the Rangerettes and a fondest memory. “We could never forget the year they began,” Mrs. Devall said. “We didn’t know what it was going to be like. The show thrilled and shocked everybody. It was very precise,” she added. President McLaurin accepts donation to Kilgore College from W. J. Spear to be added to the Clydene Foster Spear Foundation Trust. Spear adds $10,000 to fund W. J. Spear of Kilgore presented $10,(XX) to Kilgore College to the Clydene Foster Spear Foundation Trust which was established in memory of his late wife Clydene Foster Spear, a longtime employee of Kilgore College. The 1986 gift was made in memory of Allison Ann Spear, his great niece who died at the age of nine. She was the daughter of Donna and Frank Spear, Jr. of Dallas, the granddaughter of Mabel and the late Frank Spear, Sr. of Kilgore and the late Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mikeska of Kilgore and the great granddaughter of the late Winnie and Angus Spear of Kilgore. Previous memorial gifts by Spear honored his parents, Angus B. and Winnie Mae Spear, Yvonne Spear Hockcma and Anne Elise Hockema. The permanent endowment now totals $116,000 contributed by Spear since 1980. Income from the permanent trust is used to purchase rare books, private collections, journals and print media, learning resources and devices other than print media, and capital improvements to the Kilgore College Library. “Kilgore College is fortunate to have had the services of our friend and colleague Clydene Foster Spear for 31 years. She continues to be an inspiration to us daily,” Dr. Stewart McLaurin said in accepting the gift on behalf of the trust. “It is with a deep sense of gratitude that we thank Mr. Spear for this most significant contribution. Mr. Spear is a very unassuming person whose sole motive is to honor his beloved wife. We shall forever by grateful to him.” Dr. McLaurin added. Mrs. Spear retired in 1971 after serving as a member of the faculty in the Business Administration and Communications Departments for 31 years. She died in 1979. A native of Carthage and a graduate of Livingston High School, she came to Kilgore in 1935 as a teacher at Kilgore High School. She joined the Kilgore College faculty in 1940. She held a B.A. degree from Baylor University and the M. Ed. degree from the University of Texas at Austin. Mrs. Spear was active in several professional organizations, holding offices in the local chapter of Texas State Teachers Association, and Texas Junior College Teachers Association. She participated in many professional, civic and social activities in Kilgore. The Clydene Foster Spear Foundation Trust is administered by a board of trustees including Dr. McLaurin as chairman, Dr. R. Wade Kirk as vice chairman, B.E. Woodruff as treasurer and Wade Pipkin as secretary. Lay members of the board include Mrs. Annie L. Ballard, Mrs. Bonnie Porter and Mrs. Josie Ross. 242 T.J. Plunkett Memorial Scholarship Dr. Stewart McLaurin, president of Kilgore College, announced a major contribution to the college by a longtime Rusk County family. Mrs. T.J. Plunkett of Henderson donated $100,000 in December of 1985 to set up the T.J. Plunkett Memorial Scholorship Fund in memory of her late husband. Earnings from the fund will finance scholorships for needy and worthy students with average or above average ability. Mr. Plunkett was vitally interested in education, and as his daughter said, “There was every expectation and no doubt that my brother and I would go to college. My father believed deeply that it was just the thing to do.” The Plunketts are from an established family in Rusk County. Mr. Plunkett owned and operated Plunkett Jewelry in Henderson for many years. His business interests included a longtime association with Henderson Clay Products, Inc. Kilgore College has enjoyed a continuing educational relationship with the Plunkett family. Elizabeth Wooster, granddaughter of Mrs. Plunkett, is a student at Kilgore College and a member of the Ranger Band. Her father, Tony Wooster, attended Kilgore College in 1963-64. Bill Plunkett , son of Mrs. T.J. Plunkett, and his wife, Sarah Owen Plunkett, both attended Kilgore College. Sarah was in attendance from 1968-70, and Bill received an Associate Degree in 1973. President McLaurin had these observations about this important gift. “Mrs. Plunkett has set up the resources to help count less needy and worthy students at Kilgore College. Her generosity will ensure that a college education is available to scores of students who might not otherwise have that opportunity. Kilgore College is pleased to have had this fine relationship with the family over the years and wishes to express its sincere gratitude to Mrs. Plunkett and her family for this most unselfish act.” 263 I Rangerettes, Kathy O’Rear, left and Lisa McCutchen, instant celebrities after talking to Prince Charles. Prince Charles wows Rangerettes “What did the prince say?” KC faculty, students and the news media wanted to know. When Britian’s Prince Charles arrived in Dallas in February as part of Texas Sesquicentennial celebration, 20 members of KC’s Rangerettes participated in the official welcome. As the prince approached Dallas City Hall in a green bulletproof Jaguar, the Rangerettes prepared to salute and bow to the honored dignitary. While walking down the royal red carpet with Dallas Mayor Starke Taylor, the prince was informed that the Rangerettes had just returned from Nice, France. He approached Kathy O’Rear, Lumberton sophomore, and asked her if she enjoyed her trip. “Yes, sir!” she said. He then turned to Lisa McCutcheon, Dallas sophomore, and asked if the group makes many appearances like this one. “Yes, sir. We go when we are invited,” she said. Addressing Gail Eakin, Olathe, Kan., sophomore. Prince Charles asked, “Don’t your legs get chilly with those short skirts on?” Ms. Eakin replied, “No, sir!” Reflecting on the meeting, Ms. Eakin said, “It was by far the neatest experience I have had since I have been a Rangerette.

Pilot Michael Smith: Rollprogram. Mission Control Spacecraft Communicator: Roger, roll. Challenger.’ Mission Control Public Information Commentator Steve Nesbitt: Rollprogram confirmed. Challenger now heading down range. The engines are throttling down now at 94 percent. Normal throttle for most of the flight is 104 percent. We'll throttle down to 65 percent. Three engines running normally. ” Shuttle height: 10 miles; speed: 2,000 mph. Mission Control Spacecraft Communicator: “Challenger, go throttle up (full power). Smith: Roger, go at throttle up. At this moment, 71 seconds after launch. Challenger explodes in a huge fireball. The shuttle Is destroyed, and one of the two solid rocket boosters shoots off Into the atmosphrre. Smoke, debris, and fire spread over the sky. Nesbitt: We're at a minute 15 seconds, velocity 2.900 feet per second (1.977 mph) altitude 9 nautical miles (10.35 statute miles), range distance 7 nautical miles (8.05 statute miles). ” Long pause Nesbitt: Flight controllers are looking very carefully at the situation. Obviously a major malfunction. We have no downlink. For more than a week, flags across the country remained at lalf-mast as silent reminders of the crew’s fate--thc worst disaster in the history of the space program. An entire nation nourned the seven that forfeited their lives in the quest for a setter understanding of space. Why the Challenger’s fuel :ank containing a half a million gallons of liquid hydrogen rxploded resulting in instant death of its crew was under serious investigation at the time of this story. The staff of the Ranger would like to pause and take time :o remember the crew which consisted of six astronauts and sne civilian, a teacher. Francis Scobee (46), originally from Auburn, Washington, .vas Challenger’s commander. This was his second shuttle nission since 1979, the year he became an astronaut. As an ir Force pilot, he flew combat missions in Vietnam. He was :urrcntly living in Houston with his wife and two children. Michael Smith (40), from Beaufort, N.C., was Challenger’s Dilot and a commander in the U.S. Navy. He flew many :ombat missions in Vietnam before selection for the istronaut program in 1980. This was his first mission. At the ime, he was living in Houston with his wife and three :hildrcn. Judith Resnik (36), from Akron, Ohio, was selected as an astronaut in 1978. Her crew position was research scientist. This was her second shuttle flight and was America’s second woman in space, after Sally Ride. At one time she was a •esearch scientist for RCA, Xerox, and the National Institutes Df Health. She was also a classical pianist. In 1984 aboard the Discovery, her first flight, she used a robot arm to extract :hunks of ice that had built up on the shuttle’s sides. A ■esident of Houston, Judith was the only single crew member iboard. Kllison Ozinuka (39), from Kealakekua, Hawaii, was the crew’s lieutenant colonel. A former aerospace engineer and pilot who taught at the elite Air Force test pilot school in California, he was selected as an astronaut in 1978. His first shuttle flight was last January as a crew member of the Defense Department’s secret shuttle flight. He, his wife and two children were living in Houston. Gregory Jarvis (41), from Detroit, was serving as a payload specialist. He was a former satellite engineer in the Air Force and currentlyan engineer for Hughes Aircraft Co., he was to conduct tests to discover the effects of weightlessness on fluids carried in tanks. His experiments could have given engineers new information on building liquid-fueled rockets, scientists speculate. Jarvis and his wife were residents of Houston. Christa McAuliffe (37), from Concord, N.H., was one of the two payload specialists aboard Challenger. As the first teacher in NASA’s citizen-in-space program, she was selected from among 11,146 other teachers who also applied. She was a high school social studies teacher and the first private citizen to fly on a shuttle. She was to keep a journal of her flight experience as her project. Prior to flight, Christa had undergone 120 hours of training a Johnson Space Center in Houston. She was married with two children. Ronald McNair (36), from Lake City, S.C., was a research scientist for the flight. Selected as astronaut in 1979, he was the second black to go into space and was making his second shuttle flight. He was a research scientist involved in laser research who graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He was living in Houston with his wife and two children. 267 In Memoriam The Kilgore College Ranger yearbook would like to take time out to remember a fine colleague and friend. Coach James (Jim) A. Prewitt. On the morning of October 11,1985, Coach Prewitt, 53, suffered a stroke during a racquetball game in the PE complex. Several students rushed to administer CPR which, unfortunately, failed to revive him. Coach Prewitt was a Brady native who lived in Kilgore for 10 years. He was a graduate of A M Consolidated High School where he was active in the athletics program. He received letters in football, baseball, track, and basketball. He completed his education at Texas A M University. Before his coaching position here at KC, Coach Prewitt held positions at several high schools including Ganado, Cucro, Atlanta, Corpus Christi King, Longview, and Tyler Lee. Prewitt also coached at Tyler Jr. College. A KC athletic scholarship has been created in his memory. Jim Prewitt is survived by his wife, Ann; a daughter, Mrs. Stacy Day of Carrollton; two sons, Mike Prewitt of Tyler and Pat Prewitt of Duncanville; his mother, Mrs. William Chastain of College Station; a sister, Mrs. Ches Chambers of Houston; and two grandsons.

I’m a certified chronic clutz and I even lose things I file. Over the past two years, Student Services has become my second home. The parking lot out front my garage, and the building staff my family. It takes a lot of time, dedication, and a little bit of insanity to put up with it, but in the end it’s worth it to sec your work published. Maybe we aren’t perfect, but we sure give it our best shot. Any mistakes you find are accidental, we don’t do them on purpose. This yearbook is put out for you as individuals, faculty, and a student body to enjoy. As an editor, I have learned to appreciate the little things, like a full food machine downstairs, an empty rking space, and a deadline that was n time. On days when things get slow, (someone always manages to speed things up. How many times have you iseen someone ride a bicycle down the second floor of a building you take classes in? I also got to sec pictures and events I wouldn’t have seen as a regular student. It’s like being on the inside looking out. There are several people I would like to thank for all of their help. Mike Zimmerman, photographer and big help on all deadlines, Ron Landers, advisor and spirit lifter whose son Nate turned three this deadline. Thank you, Bettye Craddock, for always lending a hand when we needed it most. Special thanks to Georgia Speer and George Whitley of the Flare for all their help at the last minute.Thank you, Tonya Russell, for being my assistant and friend, and Midge Hileman who helped last semester. Thank you, Mom for keeping my dinner warm when I was late and not renting out my comfortably disarrayed room. 1 would also like to hire a hit man to rub out the computer processor for eating a forest of computer paper when I needed copy fast. For all of you future journalists out there, I encourage you to take advantage of the chance to acquire better skills in the field. The only experience I had prior to yearbook was a year of paper staff in high school. Last summer, I had a chance to attend a yearbook seminar in Nacogdoches. I hadn’t realized that my knowledge was so limited. Knowing a little about what you are doing makes a big difference in the final outcome of your work. Note: “30” is the journalist’s way of ending a story. 287 t
