In this, LaGrange,s most transitional year ever, it is appropriate that we pause amid the piling job on job to consider the effects of these changes, that we realize the extent of the alterations which are now in progress, and that we preserve forever in our memories the Visage ofthe city we have known for so long. Concern for posterity, however, should not impede progress, especially when progress signifies rising stan- dards in health care, the introduction of industry, the promotion of com- merce, and better educational oppor- tunities. Other evidences of this progress are the explosion of fast-food popularity and the location in LaGrange of sev- eral new industries. Textile is still king, but now paper, steel, rubber products, industrial supplies, and plas- tics are included. The results have been the creation ofjobs, the influx of families, and the consequent large- scale housing developments in primar- ily rural areas. There is, obviously, a new trademark for LaGrange, a city which is ever- growing, ever-changing, and every- ready to meet the needs of its citizens. We, who contribute to and ultimately benefit from this change, are ever- proud to be Grangers. 1. Whether your craving be fora Roast Beef or a Whopper, LaGrange's progress provided for it. 2. The auditorium looked empty for a few days while the seats were out getting face-lifts. 3. The LaGrange Industrial Development Au- thority attracted industry with two storage warehouses such as this one in Industrial Park. 2 1. A newcomer to the faculty, Mrs. Bohannon had no difficulty Ending her niche at LSHS. 2. Development in rural areas is taking place at a rapid but steady pace. 3. Granger football games attracted large, en- thusiastic crowds. LaGrange Symbolic of our peaceful progress, this olive tree, which thrived on lands which have now given way to the bulldozer, was replanted as a gesture of preservation. L., A ' V-, ....,-e1..' .fawfl Community Calls -4 .., E ff' 'XXX' -,N filt f... . ., l.9'5' u ' The most important change to the LaGrange High student is the fact that the school bond issue was passed in si' 1976 With this issue LHS will be ex panding its facilities adding new op portunities in vocational education and in physical education A new wing is being added on the south side of the school to house the vocational facilities at a cost of S2 5 million It will be finished by the school year of 1979 80 It will offerjob training courses in the areas of automo tive trades health and allied medical services graphic arts building trades vocational office training general in dustrlal arts drafting woodwork metal work welding and others. With these new courses the LHS graduate will be able to seek employ- ment in business or industry ifhe does not plan to attend college. With the completion of the new wing, LHS will house students in the ninth through twelfth grades. Since the ninth grade teachers will be trans- ferred to LaGrange High along with the ninth grade students, no overall in- crease in the number of teachers is an- ticipated. With these new additions, LaGrange High School will become a comprehensive high school, with one of the finest educational facilities in Georgia. 4 For Comprehensive Wing In addltlon to the vocatlonal Wmg a new fleld house for physl cal educatlon classes 15 also belng buxlt Thls bu1ld1ng was made pos slble by a S600 000 grant from the Callaway Foundatlon Inc. It IS belng constructed next to the gym for physlcal educatlon Included ln 1ts fac1l1t1es are a basketball court and two cross courts an lndoor track a pole vaultmg pxt and a Jog gmg area There are dressmg rooms for boys and glrls an offlce for a P E mstructor and a storage area for equlpment nasium, and will be used strictly By Steve Parker Changing even more rapidly than LaGrange Senior High is the face of our community. Never before in the ci- tyis history has LaGrange undergone so many large-scale changes as it has in the last few years. It is a little soft city, set vivid against the tall bold sluggers. Flanked by the Chattahoochee River, Yellow Jacket and Flat Shoals Creeks, LaGrange has evolved into a modem city, and though still far from metropolitan, the city has made abundant enterprising advance- ments in recent years. This modifica- tion is due in large measure to the pioneer efforts of the LaGrange In- dustrial and Downtown Development Authorities. Industry in its southward trek has passed fatefully through LaGrange, finding here a climate favorable to ad- ditional industrial growth. Seamco Sporting Goods, a division of Dart In- dustries, has moved into our city. It now adds about five million dollars annually to the community. Searnco's list of products includes raquetballs, soccerballs, volleyballs, waterpolo balls, footballs, paddle balls, bathing caps, bladders, and Hardwood brand baseballs. The Darworth Company, a division of E.B. Industries, is another newcomer to Industrial Park. This company makes caulking compound and paint products. Another addition to the scene has been Fast Food Merchan disers, a division of the I-Iardee's Food System and a distribution center for 324 Hardee's Restaurants, in Southeast. The location dee's distributor in result of an LaGrange Industrial thority, building in Hardee's chose to move that the building' was structed was probably factor in their moving to LaGrange. To accomodate city growth and needs, several new businesses have M M .asa made their Crossing Shopping West Georgia Commons now construction on the field obvious addition to accomodate the WHS health care were taken a formerly plex - the Center. The old LaGrange Building was exhibitions of the Valley Art Association. LaGrange is changing for the better. The new businesses and industries have improved our city's economy by adding revenue and making our tax burden lighter.,The extensive work done by the LaGrange Development Authorities is due praise. As citizens of LaGrange we hope that they continue their 'monumental accomplishments., We are as Sandburg's Chicago -f a city with lifted head singing so proud to be alive.

EXPERIENCE NECESSARY Looking for a job? Change in La- Grange has provided many new job opportunities for high school students. In spite of busy academic and social schedules, many LHS students still find time to work. After school jobs provide students with money for cars, clothes, records, and college. Students learn from jobs how to handle money and to work with fellow employees, bosses, and the public, while gaining valuable on-the-job experience. In ad- dition to jobs like baby-sitting, lawn- mowing, and delivering papers, many employment opportunities are open in business and industry. Many La- Grange young people work a mini-shift in local industry, working from 20 to 24 hours each week. Some students find jobs in eating es- tablishments. Cindie Wright CID is a cashier at Western Sizzling, a popular steak house that has afforded experi- ence in cooking, waiting tables, and running cash registers to numerous LHS students. Kari jenkins caters to the publicls taste for fried chicken at ' ' 'Z' ,Aa 10 the Big Chic, Mike Franks works at Pizza Villa, Sandra Woods C77 and Janice Moton serve hamburgers and a variety of related foods at the new Taylors, and Sandra Meredith and Freda Hutchinson C51 hurry on down to Hardee's to work every day after School. Lisa Lasseter C32 ladles up lunches at the soda fountain of the Hillside Pharmacy. Pam Maxwell, Kathy Holcomb, and Randi West C45 dish ice cream at the Ice Cream junc- tion II, located in the Lee's Crossing Shopping Center, a relatively new shopping area for LaGrange. Typical of students who work at grocery stores are Tony Bell KIOD and Lynn Pressley, who work at Food Giant. Many students work at depart- ment and variety stores. Peter and Per- rin Alford work downtown at Man- sour's, Karen Clark KSD and jackie Kat- ter U21 help customers at Rose's in the Commerce Avenue Shopping Center. Libraries often utilize the talents of student help. Lisa Langston Q22 is at the Coleman Library, and Connie Reeves, Margie Hutchinson, and Fan- nie Copeland l6D represent a number of LHS students who work regularly at the LaGrange Memorial Library. Then there are the more unusual jobs. Debra Glover C13J and Janice Leslie work for the LaGrange Police Department, and Mary Franklin CD for u the Recreation Department. Phillip Thornton works at the West Georgia Medical Center. Steve Parker sets new records as a disc jockey for WLAG and as a courier for the C :Sz S bank. jimmy Morrisey CQJ cleans up at the Robo Car Wash. Michelle Langford teaches dancing at the CEA. As LaGrange continues to grow, even more job opportunities will be- come available to teen-agers. A student who wants to work will usually find a way, and will benefit both himself and the community. ,F :LM 'Ve 1. The Grangers had a date with Fayette County. 2.

Every person has some special abili- ty, it is his responsibility to develop that potential to the fullest extent pos- sible. Few people ever realize all that they are capable of achieving, but all will utilize in varying degrees their in- herent talents and capacities. Why do some succeed, and others settle for mediocrity, in any area of life - both in school and beyond? Amidst all the changes in community and other ex- ternal circumstances, one constant re- mains unchanged among the variables of life - it is the individual will to achieve that is the prime factor in man's accomplishment. Though the great minds of the ages have disagreed in their beliefs as to what is manis ul- timate goal, they all tell us that man's progress toward that goal is affected by his desire to attain it. It is dedication to the task at hand that makes the differ- ence. Dedication is fighting for the extra yard that may mean the difference be- tween winning and losing a football game. Dedication is marching in the half time show without stopping to pick up a shoe lost in the mud. Dedica- tion is giving up part ofyour summer to cheerleader camp, or football camp, or band camp, or annual staff seminar. Dedication is staying after school for as long as it takes to get the job done. Dedication exacts a rigorous toll of time and effort, it yields rich rewards in satisfaction. It is the key to success in any undertaking. 1:3 A 16 As we watch our city grow, we are not oblivious to the efforts of its chief benefactor, a graduate of LaGrange High School of some years ago. Be- cause of his concern, LaGrange offers some of the finest facilities in religion, recreation, civil defense, and, among many others, the one for which we are most grateful - education. Because of his philanthropy, LaGrange has had a clearer path on its way to becoming a rich and productive city. But, because of his humility, a visitor to LaGrange could not easily distinguish the many projects touched by his hand. An attempt to enumerate all of his gifts would be quite a task, because his immeasurable concern has reached far past the limits of this finite city. For instance, one may visit south Georgia's Agrirama, in Tifton, and see a modest plaque bearing the name of his founda- - L tion on the outside of a renovated cot- ton gin. One may discover, while traveling in north Georgia, that the same foundation funded the construc- tion and stocking of the library at North Georgia College in Dahlonega. A stu- dent at Georgia Tech may marvel at its modem recreation facility, not know- ing that this, among scores of other facilities throughout the state, was made possible by a man from LaGrange who loves to encourage the growth and education of the youth. Through the Professorial Chairs pro- gram, which now extends to every four year college in Georgia, students throughout the state benefit from his enthusiasm for learning. Within La- Grange itself, he has been re- sponsible for the renovation of LaFayette Square, Ben Hil's Belle- numer- l vue, ous local churches, bridges, parking lots, and historic houses. His founda- tion has funded the creation of parks and community centers for all citizens. Funds have been made available for libraries, schools, and health facilities. Public schools have had air condition- ing installed, and civil defense equip- ment has been purchased for our pro- tection. Many young men and women have been enabled to attend the col- lege of their choice through the Hatton Lovejoy Scholarship Program. He has touched each of us, and his gifts are of such magnitude that they can never be repaid, except, in a small way, through the thanks, praise, and love that we are moved to offer him. Because LaGrange helped his busi- ness in its early years, he feels in- debted to this, his city. His city is, in reciprocal manner, indebted to him and to the trustees of his foundation. THE 1979 GRANGER, which recog- nizes the growth and metamorphosis of LaGrange, also recognizes the efforts, by this dedication, of FULLER E.

During the summer vacation, the girls spent a week at Auburn University at Cheerleading Camp. There, the LHS cheerleaders won top prize in spirit competition events. Their spirit and vitality have endured throughout the year to heighten pride at LHS. Curious George joined the squad this year as mascot.

'fi 03333, x,-W, W N This year's Pep Club worked hard to promote Granger spirit at all athletic competitions. Under the direction of Mrs. Rogers, the members of the Pep Club sold spirit badges for football and basketball games, decorated the lockers of the athletes, and made colorful posters for the halls and the gym. Homecoming was particularly exciting this year as they again sold Homecoming mums. The club won the truck division of the Homecoming parade. This club makes a contribution in finances as well as spirit. It has helped to provide some ofthe funds to finance the football banquet, and to help with the purchase of traveling uniforms for the girls' basketball team. The president of this year's pep club is Lisa Langston, with Jeannie Thomas vice-president and Teresa Gaines secretaryftreasurer. Three cheers for the Pep Club!

According to club president, Emily Lester, the Octagon Club tackled the new year with lots of spirit, and Hraring to gof, Their first challenge was to find an advisor. Fortunately, Mr. David Guy was able to step in and provide leadership to the only co-ed civic club. The sign contest stimulated Granger spirit early in the football season. The big project for the fall was to aid the Jaycees with their Haunted House. They also cooperated with the Ameri- can Cancer Society in sponsoring the Great American Smoke-Out,', helped their civic club sponsor, the Optimist Club, with a yard sale, and provided baby-sitters for the Optimist State Convention. All this while finding time to enter a truck in the Homecom- ing parade, winning Honorable Men- tion. The Anchor-Octagon football game was a highlight ofthe fall. Then it was Christmas, and time for Santa Claus Letters and a party for under- privileged children. The club was selected to host the state convention in January at Calla- way Gardens. Spring game conces- sions occupied much of club members' time. The big project for the spring was the ever popular Sweetheart pageant. All this activity was captured for the first time in an impressive scrapbook. .

Key Club members have served both the community and themselves with such projects as coaching youth football, and with leadership preparation like their one-day take-over of the city government last spring. One very popular continuing project ofthe Key Club for the past few years has been the preparation and sale ofa school calendar, featuring some of LaGrange High School's prettiest girls. The LHS Key Club, inactive during the latter part of this school year, is making long range plans for a very busy and productive year in 1979-1980. 1 Key Club president Lane Johnson and sweetheart Emily Lester looked at the club calendar.

The chase is on! The 1978-79 LEO Club continued the LEO trend of providing leadership and service in many ways. The list of projects grows from year to year, and so does the quality of the LEO member. Leo members are hardworking and demonstrate high integrity in the classroom. This year's list of LEO projects included handling basketball concessions, raising the flags on the square and at the building as well as at the football games, working at the Winter Games, helping to sponsor the Miss Troup County Pageant, and working at the Troup County Agricultural Fair. As a major project, Leos took on the task of aiding the Camp for the Blind in Waycross. For this and other projects, the LHS LEO Club was one ofonly 25 clubs in the world to receive the Award of Excellence from Lions International. LEO cheerleaders supported their team. LEO clubber Alan Johns tackles Interact Clubber Jerry Willis. LEO Sweetheart Mary Weyman Gunter gave LEO stockings for Christmas. 25 Interact Excelled in Service The Interact Club, as its name implies, is one of the most active clubs on campus. Last Year the club received three first place and one second place award out of a possible four awards, given at the District Conference in the spring. Luke Mansour, who has served as president of the LHS Interact Club this year, was elected District Governor. Interact members may be seen at work on campus on such projects as presenting the flags for pep rallies, assisting with the distribution of Cokes on Coke day, or putting up the cross country record board in the gym. In the community they are involved in parties for underprivileged children at Halloween and Christmas, assisting the Red Cross with the Bloodmobile, helping to coach and keep score for City recreation league soccer teams and basketball teams.

Among many new faces at the An- chor Club meeting last fall was that ofa new advisor, Mrs. Hodnette. Along with club president Donna Lee and the other officers, she led the way through an industrious year. Helping with the CEA cheerleaders and City Recreation cheerleaders took many hours of members' time. Money- raising projects such as Halloween Grams and Valentines, and Bake Sales, increased funds in the treasury. Firsts for the club this year included helping their civic club sponsor, the Pilot Club, to build a float for the Christmas parade, and to sell Love-Lite bulbs as a fund-raising project to light trees at local nursing homes. They also col- lected gifts for the patients at Mil- ledgeville State Hospital. Anchor members ushered at Mutual Concert programs. Together with the Interact Club they sponsored a Halloween party for underprivileged children, and they gave another party at Christmas-time. One ofthe highlights ofthe fall was the Anchor-Octagon football game, with the Anchor Club won 14-0. The Anchor Club again attended the annual state convention in the spring.

This unique program was started in Georgia at LaGrange High School, under the direction of Miss Betsy Prim of West Georgia CESA. Students and teachers whom they would assist attended a special work- shop this past summer, with teachers earning in-service credits toward cer- tificate renewal, and students earning 350.00 for their time and efforts. Dur- ing these sessions in the summer, partici- pants in the program became familiar with techniques of help- ing students to learn with the assistance of a student aide. They also learned how to construct and to use several differ- ent types of instructional materials, and began to manufacture materials to be used in the particular subject with which they would be working. Students received 5 hours credit for each quarter they worked as an aide during the school year. Their tasks ranged from helping students on a one-to-one basis, to preparing mate- rials for the classroom, and supervising small group activities. After a SIGHT student has worked as a teacher's aide for one year, the student can become certified and be eligible for employ- ment as a para-professional upon grad- uation from high school. h Sight member Lonetha Thompson, aids Spanish student in Scrabble. 29 HS Hopped,' From The Pedestal The National Honor Society is an organization for honoring outstanding academic achievement. Admission to the society is based on a 3.75 grade point average. When you have such a gathering, service projects often result. During the fall, the NHS sold football programs during school and volunteered their services to the jerry Lewis telethon in Atlanta. This year the local club could boast of having the state vice-president, Steve Parker. As host club to the VP, the club was in charge of decorating for the state convention at Jekyll Island. The club was also in charge of securing entertainment for over 600 persons expected to attend the convention. Mr. McCoy continued to aid the group through this heavy responsibility. One ofthe most enjoyable projects was the first school dance, other than the junior-Senior prom, since 1971. President Alan Johns and other members ofthe club were instrumental in obtaining permission from the school board to hold an informzll School dance' Dan Webb led a discussion of techniques leamed at state leadership conference.

Mais oui! But yes, itls the French Club - a rewarding experience for many LHS students that makes learning a foreign language not only interesting but fun as well. In this, their second year, the French Club boasted not one but two advisors - Mrs. Jackson and Mrs. Russell. The club not only strove to understand the language of lovers better but also shared their interests with others in the community. At the Thanksgiving party, members taught french games and songs. Besides ordering new jerseys with each member's name in French, other activities included sponsoring a Homecoming truck, having a hayride and party to celebrate Noel, and eating out at an authentic French restaurant.

But, unlike the varsity sports, chess clubbers were involved mentally, not physically. Each move that the uchessnutsu made had to be taken with extreme caution and unbroken concentration. The ones who achieved victory over their opponents showed expertise as they used masterful strategy against their colleagues. But, on the other hand, the defeated ones didn't show the slightest dejection of spirit- they just remembered not to use the same strategy in their future games. The chess club members, whether winning or losing, enjoyed doing what they did best. ., .. .. . .WH ., Q. ...,.,fm.r.4-mfr. ff-5 -' 'fr-X 'W f 12 A-it nw 'M -X-1-,..,.,. -we r Math team members Francis Barnes, Mark Thom, Roger Welborn, and Alan Brady were coached by Mr. Hayes. wig., 'ffzjgiizk.,f 's'QW,f' dk r. .X if l wi n V ff . . dw arf va In Y-Club Maintained High Standards Y-Clubs in the high school are part of the national and international movement of the YMCA, with the oldest Y-Club in continuous existence dating back to 1898 in Kansas.

Each year they have taken the region crown, and their one-hundred percent success record makes Granger cross-country, without contest, one of the most successful programs in the entire state. Coach Shrewsbury, following the records of his predecessors, Bubba Sumners and Chico Lynch, works his boys hard every day. On the average they run six miles per day in prepara- tion for their three-mile meets. Cross-country, often treated as the kid sister of LHS sports, has merited the acclaim of everyone.

However, the Cardinals put everything together in 1978 and so began a very successful season by edg- ing the Grangers 14-12. LaGrange opened the first game with a bang as Hugh Rutledge, promis- ing Granger tailback, scored on a 74- yard run on the Granger's third play from scrimmage. Rutledge totaled 154 yards rushing, while Granger wingback Randall Reid added 92 yards on three carries, in- cluding an 81-yard touchdown run. The ineptitude of the Granger kick- ing game against Jonesboro fore- shadowed several losses which would result from the weakness of special teams throughout the year.

Newton standout Kenny Stokes broke loose on the third play from scrimmage for a 41-yard run and a Ram touchdown. The Granger defense tightened throughout the rest of the game and allowed only 72 yards rush- ing after their defensive breakdown. Offensively, the Grangers showed good balance, and got the tying score in the second quarter after a 60-yard drive. The teams went into the half with a 7-7 tie. The second half was all defense, as the deepest penetration by either team was the opponent's 33-yard line. Late in the fourth quarter, however, the Grangers drove 49 yards only to fum- ble at the Newton County four-yard line. The regulation period ended in a 7-7 tie. The overtime periods were again de- fensive contests, but the Grangers generated more offense, penetrating to the Newton County 11-yard line be- fore the final gun. The point for penet- ration gave the Grangers an 8-7 win. OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE GAME: RANDALL REID C84 yds., 7 carries? DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE GAME: BOBBY MILLER Qgraded 8721? FOREST PARK 34 LAGRANGE 22 The Grangers' third contest took them to Tara Stadium to face the Forest Park Panthers and to try to boost their record to 2-1. However, the Grangers played very poorly. There was very little good execution and the defense and special teams played much too sporadically. Several times the Grangers allowed long runs. In the first quarter, the Panthers had runs of 34 and 32 yards and returned a kickoff for 94 yards, while coming out of the first period with a cool 14 points. Their one mistake in the quarter was on a fumble on their own 16-yard line, which the Grangers recovered and turned into a quick six. The score at the end of the first period was 14-9. The Panthers got two touchdowns passing and added another on a 91- yard interception return. The Grangers came out embarrassed 34-22.

As a matter of fact Griffin hadn't played too well in the first three weeks of the season. They continued this trend in the first half against the Grangers. Behind a strong passing attack, the Grangers led at the half 15-7. The second half was very different, however, as the Bears, behind Ricky Williams, came back to whip La- Grange 22-21. Once again, the lack of a kicking game proved costly as missed extra points provided the difference. The Grangers stayed close with the powerfiil Bears. Both the Granger pass- ing and pass defense came of age. Willie Burden provided 115 of La- Grange's total 189 yards passing and two touchdowns. Meanwhile, the Granger secondary allowed only 42 yards on three passes. Senior corner- back Alan Johns had probably his finest game of his career as he batted down or broke up numerous Griffin passes.

The game with Fayette County was another bruising defensive contest. Each team shut offthe other one and the score remained tied at zero until late in the fourth quarter. The Tigers scored with only seven seconds left on the clock, on a wingback reverse pass, which the Granger secondary had diagnosed per- fectly. Forced to run, the Fayette County player rambled 41 yards on what has to be called a busted play. Before the score, the deepest penet- ration by either of the two teams was a Granger drive in the first half which stymied on the Fayette County 24-yard line. This heart-breaking ending to yet another Granger game had even the staunchest disbelievers believing in bad luck.

Fortunately, because of their los- ses, the Grangers were not over- confident going into the contest. Neither team played very well and the Grangers came out on top 12-0. Again, the Grangers missed two extra points, but they were lucky enough this time not to need them. ROCKDALE 13 LAGRANGE 0 The drought which had dried up sc much of North and West Georgie ended officially in Rockdale County The floods came, forcing the officials to call for a delay midway through the second quarter. When the teams returned to the field, Rockdale put together a scoring drive with the help of a few Granger defensive breakdowns. The Granger: allowed the Bulldogs three big plays runs of 57, 41, and 27 yards. The only bright spot in the Grange defense was linebacker William Foste 5 Ffz'.ff??f:f1E'ff7E'355f f.751 l..'Y7ff7I'1V flS7'Ti7' V'f?t'2'f'3?'Zr . ,122 in -. . , 4g,j.i'.,,-, 's ' r ' rflrffr 511' r fe w ...... . f ., ., 1. ,aio Front row: Keith Terry, Cliff Teague, Jeff Carter, Keith Williams, Reginald Walker, Hugh Rutledge, Gus Vaughn, Elmer Reed, Gabe Sheppard, Dan Web, Mickey Norris, Cris Whatley, Ronnie Watts, Earnest Harris, Roderick Thornton, Terry Robinson.

The Grangers scored early when de- fensive back Keith Williams returned a fumble 52 yards for six points. One thing that seemed to pose a problem was that the Granger kicker, Willie Burden, was out with an injury. Thankfully, this proved a blessing in disguise as the Grangers were able to convert on their point after touchdown attempts. The Grangers scored on a 25-yard pass from Ricky Brewer to james Bryant, a four yard run by Brewer, and a safety when Tony Shealey tackled the Eagle quarterback in the end zone. Passes from Brewer to Danny Cofield and Todd Holsombeck pro- vided the Grangers' two conversions on the night. 60 OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE GAME: TODD HOLSOMBECK Cgraded 80012, two point conversionj DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE GAME: KEITH WILLIAMS C52- yard fumble returnl MORROW 10 LAGRAN GE 7 The Grangers returned to Tara Stadium in week nine to face the Morrow Mus- tangs. It was a defensive game all the way, as the teams left the field for the half tied at zero. In the third quarter, however, the Gran- gers got things going. Hugh Rutledge ran 67 yards off-tackle and the Grangers went ahead 7-0. It looked as if seven points would be enough until late in the fourth quarter when Morrow scored on a perfectly- executed flea-flicker from the Granger 27-yard line. The game was climaxed by a better- than-forty yard field goal, the longest of the Morrow kickers' career.

Perhaps it was because the rival Newnan Cougars were paying a visit to Callaway Stadium. The Grangers were still stinging from a string of losses to the Cougars in recent years. LaGrange, out of the playoff picture, had nothing to lose and a lot of pride to salvage. A Newnan fumble on their first possession lead to LaGrange's first score. Hugh Rutledge, back at full speed for the big game, swept around left end for the opening score. Newnan struck back on a 31-yard scoring pass in the first quarter, but the Grangers got two more scores C16-yard pass, Brewer to Rutledge, 11-yard run by Brewerj before the half. LaGrange went into the dres- sing room leading 21-12. Newnan gained the lead in the third quarter by taking advantage of Granger mistakes. It again looked as if LaGrange would let victory slip away, as Newnan led at the end of the third quarter, 26-21. But LaGrange bowed their backs and mounted a 61-yard drive, cap- ped by a 13-yard run by Rutledge. The point after failed, but the Grangers led 27-26. The Grangers vented their year- long frustrations as they scored again in the waning moments to make the final score 34-26.

F 1 B-Team The Granger B-team Gals got off to a slow start in '78. The girls dropped their first four games, losing to Fayette County, Griffin, Newnan, and jones- boro. After this terrible start the girls won tive out of their next eight, which shows the obvious potential the team had. The most probable cause ofthis slow start was the lack of basketball experi- ence by most of the girls. In fact, a couple of the starters had never played organized basketball before coming to high school. We had to work a lot on fundamen- tals this yearf, said Coach Lucy Hunt. The girls worked real hard and I think we did a good job considering the material we had. Coach Hunt singled out jackie Mahonie and Tammy Gates as good varsity prospects.

B Team Posted 4-2-1 Pigskin Record Granger defense pinned the runner to the sideline. The main purpose of B-team ball, according to Coach Mike Moncus, is to see who really wants to play. It also prepares players for the Varsity ranks. B-team can be very different from Var- sity competition, in that a player often finds himself having to carry a lot more of the load. The games can often be a real test of endurance. LaGrange opened with an impres- sive win over Forest Park, 14-6. Against an always-tough and speedy Griffin team, the Grangers came away on the short end of a 14-0 score. They rebounded to defeat region newcomer Fayette County by a lopsided 36-0, but continued to have their ups and downs as they lost to Woodward Academyl 30-14.

We started out pretty slowly this yearf' said Coach Rogers, but we came on really strong in the last half ofthe sea- son. The Baby Grangers did in fact get off on the wrong foot, as they dropped their first three games to Fayette Co., Griffin, and Newnan. The pivotal game of the season was the 4th game against Ionesboro. LaGrange im- plemented a half-court press which kept the Cardinals off balance long enough for the Grangers to pull out their first victory of the year 58-56. The Grangers won the next three, also, over Forest Park, North Clayton, and Mor- row. LaGrange eventually won 7 out of their last 10 games to finish with a bet- ter than .500 season.

The Grangers had considerable trouble with their in- side defense while trying to stop the much bigger opposing centers, such as Newton Countyis Sylvester Maddox, Rockdale's Robert McGuire, and jonesboro's David Baczowski. Looking back over the seasonf' commented Coach Dick Shrewsbury, every game we lost, with exception of the Forest Park game, was lost to a team with a big center who dominated the boards. Another problem presented by their lack of size was their inability to drive inside for the easy basket. As a result, they were often forced to take low- percentage shots from the outside. With five more inches along the Crangers' front line, they could have been much more successful this year. In short, height was the most obvious deficiency of this yearis cagers. Another aspect which hurt the Gran- gers this year was poor free-throw shooting. In some games LaGrange had a better shooting percentage from the floor than they did from the foul line. - ri ln..

En route to their 11-10 season record, the Grangers did provide many hours of great entertainment for LaGrange fans, and also enough exposure for two of the Granger seniors, Wayne Iohnson and Barry Kelley, to be signed to play college basketball. -1 james Bryant one-handed one LHS Opponent Score 65 Shaw 52 73 Spencer 64 63 Spencer 73 55 Fayette County 66 77 Griffin 74 43 Newnan 40 59 Jonesboro 57 75 North Clayton 59 47 Forest Park 62 54 Riverdale 34 77 North Clayton 53 61 Rockdale County 70 47 Morrow 51 64 Newton County 76 74 Heritage 63 71 Fayette County 57 44 Griffin 46 74 Newnan 43 50 Jonesboro 59 47 Forest Park 52 'Iv t X s Q A4 , Dexter Williams provided the string music.

Under Coach Nancy Moseley, the girls won their first twelve games and achieved the pole position for the Region tournament in Riverdale. They were defeated in the second round by Forest Park, a team which they had beaten twice before in regular season play. This year's team featured a lot of talented girls, all of whom worked extremely hard in preparation for their contests. Sophomore Vicki Cox was a pleasant surprise this year, as she came on to perform well in both the scoring and rebounding de- partments. With her at the post, the girls can look forward to continued success for at least the next couple of years. Quick guards Janice Roman, and Wanda Varner developed good shooting forms and played steady defense throughout the year, often turning opponents' mistakes into Granger fast-breaks. Also on the front line were Debra Reed, Debra Jenkins, and Gloria Brooks, all of whom played excellent defense.

After losing to Columbia and Hardaway, the Grangers captured two very sweet vic- tories over arch-rival Newnan en route to a 6-2 finish. The Grangers' final record is very impressive considering the young na- ture of the team. LaGrange had only three seniors, while much of the load was carried by five juniors. Depth was provided by three sophomores and a freshman. The highlight of the ,78-'79 season was the capturing ofa second place in the state AAAA tournament. Junior Danny Cofield, voted by his mat-mates Most Outstanding Wrestler, placed second in the state in the 155-pound class, recording the highest place finish of any grappler in Granger histo- ry.

Be- cause of this wide variety, everyone gets into the act come spring, and it's once again time for fun in the sun. As winter leaves and the blossoms slowly open, so does the floodgate on a stream of spring athletes. Many find satisfaction in participation during the final academic quarter, whether it be on the diamond, the green, the court, or the cinders. Indeed this spirit of all-out competi- tion, coupled with the new warmth of spring, makes this group of sports an entity. The staff of the Granger ap- proaches the coverage of 1978 spring sports with hill realization that while the spring of 1978 may be a forgotton part of the last academic year, the spring of 1979, which will bring us the pleasure of participation, will be re- membered in the Granger of 1980. It is only unfortunate that the coverage of these dynamic spring sports should lose its impetus in this way. 1. Swinging Southpawf' Scott Smalley 2. Kicking up dust at first 3. Early B.

How often does a team with only one meet land that a losing effortl under their belt, come on to win the region track meet? ' Wellg thatis exactly what the Grangers did. After having some scheduling 'problems the girls ended up with only one regular season meet. In this, a three-way meet with Newton County and Morrow, the Granger gals were de- feated by a very strong Morrow teamg Some people 'say that you canlearn more from a loss than you can from a win, andmaybe this was the case5 as the only meet of the season obviously 'gave the girls valuable experience.. p 7 A A In short, the Grangertgirls of 1978 personified the old ,adage in sportsg they won the one that counted, 77 9 O MQWHL C MQVHL C MQWHL I MQVHL O MQWHL I MQVHL ,,,,. . , . i--,f-a---- ' K , 4 -f---- 1 Y 4. i Q ....

The team was plagued all year with rainouts and cancellations, but when they did get a chance to perform they, once again, did very well. The individual performances of several of the Grangers in the Head- land Relays were indicative of their performances for the remainder of the year. Gary johnson placed sec- ond in the shot put by setting a new school record of 50 feet, 2126 inches. The old record was set back in 1970 by Philip Johns. Also in the ,Head- land Relays, Johnson came up inches shy of a school record in the discus throw. Ronnie Everitt placed fourth at Headland, foreshadowing his fine performances throughout the year. Johnson eventually won the re- gion in the shot put competition and wuarmaae.. ,een-smug ...www r. rrwww-L-... tree-unsuum:svr,..,fieawmmwwLi also earned the right to compete in the state meet in two other events, the discus and the 440-relay, along with Anthony Freeman, Willie Bur- den and Randall Reid. Everitt finished second in the re- gion in two events, the high jump and the 330 hurdles, thus qualifying for the state meet also. As the Grangers advanced to the state meet, Johnson was the only man to place, capturing fourth place among a very strong field of athletes in the shot put event. p p Although Everitt didn't finish strong in the state meet, he exhibited his true competitiveness in the summer of '78, when he placed third inthe Georgia Invitational'Decatha4 lon. ,N g A Coach Chico Lynch is proud of his '78 Granger .- squad, and vows that they will continue to improve in '79.

The 1978 Granger Baseball team had what you could call an average year, as they went 7-7 overall and 5-5 in region play. LaGrange was a team which might easily have gone 10-4 with a few breaks. After nine games LaGrange had a 6-3 record with 5 opponents remaining on the regular season schedule. Of these 5, the Grangers had previously defeated 4 and lost to 1. With an equivalent showing, they would have been 10-4 and almost surely in the region play-offs. Nothing better typiiies the potential of this club than the fact that they twice defeated North 13 l l E l i 2 4 M ,,,, p p Mg Gr-angers anxiously awaited getting back in the game. Clayton, who went on to win the Re- gion crown. LaGrange got off to a good start de- feating two non-region opponents, West Point and Heard County. The Grangers then hosted powerful Col- umbus to a double-header, with LaGrange losing both games. La- Grange got back on the winning track as they soundly defeated Morrow, only to drop the next to Newnan in a close one. The C-rangers really put it all together in the next three games winning key region victories over Rockdale, North Clayton, and Herit- age. The Morrow game began a 5 game road trip, if you will, for the Grangers, and it was the turning point for the entire season. La- Grange jumped out to a 3-0 lead after two innings only to see their lead dwindle to the point of a 3-3 tie going into the 7th and final inning. A spurt of bad luck for the Grangers here seemed to open the iloodgates for the remainder of the season. The Morrow lead-off batter walked, stole second, reached third on a wild pitch, and scored the winning run on another wild pitch. LaGrange went on to lose a heartbreaker to Newnan 2-1 in extra innings. Nothing seemed to work for LaGrange then, as they were able to salvage only one victory, against re- gion champs North Clayton, for the remainder ofthe season. 81 LM SHNNELL Ei.

E i l The most successful program in the Spring of ,78 had to have been Tennis. The Granger netters were 9-1 overall with the girls going unde- feated. LaGrange's only loss came at the heads of the region's perennial tennis power, Newton County. The tennis team was relatively young, with only one senior, Peter Allen, on the squad. With so many excellent talents returning for '79, the Crangers must certainly be con- sidered a team to be reckoned with. LaGrange started off strong with victories over Jonesboro, Morrow and Griffin. The Grangers sustained their sole setback of the season to Newton County next. The big blue and white machine rolled on to six consecutive victories trampling the likes of Newnan, Rockdale, and North Clayton. The efforts of two Grangers cer- tainly deserve to be mentioned.

The Granger golfers of the spring of '78 had a fairly impressive year. We did pretty well last year consid- ering how young the team was. When you don't have any seniors on the squad it makes it toughf' said Coach Jimmy Hightower. The lack of that all important expe- rience and leadership that often can be provided only by a senior was evident at various times during the season. Juniors jeff Hagood and Steve Burdette took the situation in hand and came on strong during the mid- dle ofthe season to share the number one spot. Strong support was provided by Brian Rainey and Greg Brannon. Newcomers to the team jim Crites and Tom Boyd provided the Gran- gers with badly needed depth throughout the season.

Guys and girls were getting used to being in classes together again after three years. Students and teachers alike were each breaking in the other group. But it wasn't long until the sophomores began to feel right at home. Knowing that they would graduate from the comprehensive high school made these sophomores feel special.

They proved unafraid to point out needed changes, and were not satisfied until the changes had been ini- tiated. As freshmen, the class of '79 was the first to enter a float in the Homecoming parade. That same year, a group of the boys from the Alpha Omega Club began playing inter-club football, and in their only game of the year defeated the Interact Club. The boys and girls joined efforts at the end of the year to stage the enjoyable Freshman Ball. Their sophomore year was an experience. They arrived at the sprawling complex of cold limestone and sometimes colder up- perclassmen. Their home- coming float that year de- picted the school they EMILY DALE ABERNATHY PERRIN JOHN ALFORD PETER THOMAS ALFORD TIMOTHY ALLEN RICHARD GLENN ANDERSON DAWN ELLEN ANDREWS 124 were beginning to love. Their crowning achieve- ment was a Little Com- mencement that recalled, through the Wizardry of Marvin the Magnificentn and the Mighty OO- LAC, sights and sounds of senior antics for the Class of '77. As juniors, they survived their toughest academic year ever. Although busy in the classroom, they found time to organize a dazzling junior-Senior Prom built around the New Orleans Riverboat theme. With the assistance of funds collected by the ju- niors, the school was able to purchase a much needed videotape recorder and player. Suddenly, they were se- niors. The once envious became the envied. They lined up for the senior bust-through and cheered the Crangers on to victory over arch-rival Newnan.

While the building at LaGrange High remained relatively unchanged until this year, significant changes in other areas take place every year. Just as the homecoming parade varies each year in its color and beauty, so does the fashion scene at LHS. Nothing changes faster than fashion. What is the vogue today may tomorrow be taboo. How do you wear your suit- pockets, anyway? Is out in and in out,' this year? All I know is, last year, in was in and out was definitely Houtn. While some of today,s styles will become classics, and others be as ephemeral as the Edsel or the Hoola- hoop, they will always remain as indi- cators of our time at LHS. Now, as for the past several years, blue jeans are the mainstay of most students' wardrobes. The narrow leg is 'Kin' and the bell bottom is out',. The most startling new look for jeans is achieved by combining them with spiked heels. jeans come in many styles, colors, and fabrics, but, no mat- 168 ter how you slice it, it comes out Levi's. Plaid shirts and jackets, hats, belts, and wallets, and even shoes, sport the Levi's tab. Tennis shoes bear- ing such names as Adidas and Nike are worn and worn, while updated loafers known as Docksiders are seen on the best feet. wild socks may be worn with any sturdy shoes, and boots are popu- lar with all. The dress, once the mainstay of every young lady's war- drobe, has found its way out of the closet and into the hearts ofmany girls. The Vest has become a popular fashion, worn with skirts or jeans. T-shirts are not only comfortable but an obvious mode of communication. They may identify their wearers as LaGrange High School students, or, Spoiled Rot- ten. They may suggest the wearers' tastes in companionships, such as I'm With Stupid, or, Pobodgfs Nerfect. Fashion, like T-shirts, inevitably communicates the mood of a unique era. sg, ya-4-5rii1..Qi A ti: kk., 2 gymnasium isparkled Witha cool ny njxist 6HhHHClHgltHQ'VQfMiSSiS- Riverboat theme of the 1978 mr-Senior prom.

In ad- LL., Q3 I E dition to meeting the demands of their fy Q ' C, own businesses and professions, they six .f fffv apply time and talents to provide lead- it X -5-- ership for the school system. Superin- l XX ' L tendent James W. McAllister and As- X sistant Superintendent Daves R. Nichols head a team of dedicated pro- fessionals working hard to provide the best in education for LaGrange City Schools. One example of the Board,s responsiveness to the needs of the stu- dents was their decision to purchase a I sound system for the Drama Club at LHS. According to Mr. Mac, We try to add some area of enrichment and im- - provement each year. The sum total of those improvements is an impres- sive educational opportunity for La- Grange residents - and the best is yet to come. James W. MCA1liSt61', Superintendent Daves R.

Principal J. Neil Sherrod provides positive and dynamic direction, aided by Assistant Principals James H. Fulford, Joseph H. Hawkins, and W.J. Webb. In addition to his duties at LHS, Mr. Sherrod is often called upon to attend area and regional meetings to plan and implement continuous improvements in education. One such meeting was the College Board Seminar on Competency Testing, held in New York in October. Probably no other member offaculty or staff works harder at a greater variety of tasks than Mr. Fulford. From textbooks to tardy students, from free lunch forms to football tickets, from discipline to detention hall - see Mr. Fulford. Mr. Hawkins took on a new role this year in implementing the ISSP, or In-school suspension program, designed to help the student in difficulty without sending him home. Mr. W.J.

The largest faculty turnover in re- cent years brought changes to the counseling department also. Mrs. Parker became counselor to the Se- niors, with Mrs. Sumners and Mr. Brabham working with sophomores and juniors. Mrs. Sumners says that her title of Director of Guidance and Counseling could be misleading. Ac- cording to her, We all work as a team. She directs the enormous task of quarterly registration. Mrs. Parker now has time to attend to a very impor- tant responsibility - helping Seniors with their college and career planning. Mr. Brabham believes that with the completion of the new wing, voca- tional counseling will be of more im- portance than ever. g., 4 Y X., .ii-M-lQ.gi vii MQW l'l5l1-Sl!

May I have your attention, please? There are some very special people at LHS. Mrs. Perry has all the answers to all the questions asked by all the people who come through the office daily, or call on the phone. Mrs. Teaster handles our finances and bookkeeping with the skill of the shrewdest accountant. Mrs. Goldin, counseling secretary, assists with the staggering job of scheduling 1100 stu- dents each quarter. Mrs. Campbell is the library secretary. Mrs. Webb is the new vocational education secretary. The remarkable thing about these ladies is their ability to remain friendly and pleasant and to carry on lively and jovial conversation even under the pressures of their work. Perhaps, laughter lightens up the load. Another very special person at LHS is Mrs. Love, coordinator of the Inde- pendent Study Program. Her unique personality and understanding of human nature along with her knowl- edge of a seemingly endless variety of subjects make her the perfect choice for supervising the projects of very in- telligent students. 185 New Faculty Members , V Q we YV-3 ,vi 'l SVR? fm. 3 W W ai 7 . y Z ,...-N 'S k't ' I , ,ff -f W .. , ' L 4 F lu ,N ' A x I 1 Ioan Adams, Business Wendell Adams, Art, Drama Betty Alexander, Pre-Voc.

William Cullen Bryant QEIIQEEBE QB. williams 1934 1978 Ulysses Dubois Williams was born in Gadsden, Alabama, the youngest son of Johnnie Lee and Sara Williams. He attended the public schools of Gadsden, Alabama and was graduated from Carver High School. He received a baccalaure- ate degree in education from Alabama State University and a masters degree in education from West Georgia State College. Mr. Williams first came to LaGrange as a young man to work with the Water Safety Instruction program of the Ogletree Street Recreation Center. He was to remain in the LaGrange area for more than twenty years, working with youth and with adults in both recreation and in educa- tion. After a tour of duty with the United States Air Force during the Korean conflict, he returned to LaGrange and was employed as a teacher at the Thomas Town Elementary School until 1970. At that time he transferred to LaGrange High School, and taught in the Social Studies Department of LHS until his un- timely death in July of 1978. Active in community affairs, he was a member of the First Baptist Church of Fannin Street, the American Legion, Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, the Georgia Association of Educators and the LaGrange Association of Educators. Mr. William I. Griggs, Principal of Northwest Primary School, had this to say of Mr. Williams: He was faithful to his family, to his job, and to his friends. He had a significant impact on the community and on the lives of his students. Ulysses Williams was a lighter of candles, these candles were the lives of the students who came under his influence.

Under the direction of new manager Mrs. Barbara Barnes, assisted by new assistant man- ager Mrs. Bobbie Shadix, the staff pre- pares and serves tasty, nutritious lunches for over 1100 students daily. System-wide menus are planned twice yearly by a committee of lunch- room managers from the entire city system. In addition to the standard menu, which offers a variety of choices, the lunchroom also offers a sack lunch and a salad plate daily. , f ' M' fl' 'HRW p , lam, 335' 'eiflga ,, .

Tapes and movies, slides and transparencies, bulletin boards and travel posters - all help to create an atmosphere of authenticity that captues the imagination and stimulates learning. Many students plan to take advantage of the opportunity to travel to a country where Spanish is spoken. With La senora as their leader, students know that surprises are often in store. fx .. 4- -A., WRX, ?ffv2:y..,g- ' '- k ' ., l .X ,MV ,rw Rf' Karen Browne applied artistic talent to finish a bul- letin board. 192 Parlez-vous Francais? ,?2SM'a-' ,i.1 !7j.1, , .

Mr. Hayes pondered the probabilities. Stephanie Zobay was amazed at the logic of Roger Welbom's explanation. Alan Brady doubted that Jimmy Kelly really had hit the jackpot while joseph jones counted it out on his fingers. 194 A Multiple Of Courses , L , Eiga Zivxi T' Mrs. Crotts kept students working with a smile. Mastering the art of geometry was the goal Kim Reed protected her answers from curi- of William Satterfield. ous eyes. The record for the longest period of time as department head is held by Mr. Hayes, with 11 years as mentor of mathematics. The math department also has the largest number of different courses taught, with students choosing from thirty different courses at three ability levels. Students who complete the college preparatory math curriculum have a strong background for advanced math courses in college. A new course added this year was the computations course, designed to help students bring up their SAT scores, and to strengthen their math skills through competition in area math tournaments. Two changes needed in the math department, according to Mr. Hayes, are to teach lower level students some of the tools of algebra, and to offer more business-related math courses to students on the average and above-average level. 195 Classes Presented The Wonder N- Students took notes industriously from Mr. Cone. i tg! .Q ff'-.isiiff 1 Tlir' Miss Debbie Biles was Mr. Cason's student l teacher during fall quarter. gifs U Mrs. English clarified the workings of the American political system.

The videotape recorder was an asset to the department, and was often borrowed by other depart- I'K'lCIltS. As new department head, Mr. Cason was instrumental in affecting some changes in social studies this year. One ofthe most exciting teaching and learning experiences was the use of the videotape equipment. With the assistance of funds from the Callaway Foundation and from the class of '79, the school was able to implement the use of sophisticated videotaping equipment. Classes wrote, produced, starred in, and presented their own TV shows relating to the American political scene. l Carla Daniel had the right answer. Mrs. Smith was expecting a sensible reply from her students. 197 What Can You Say Mrs. Long introduced the juniors to charac- ters from English literature. Anyone for composition? Steve Burdette and Lane johnson saw the light in Spanish Lit. Greg Brannon and Ronald Cox displayed their game form in world literature. Mrs. Russell rejoined the English depart- ment this year. 198 I About English. y ' Generally speaking, Mrs. Rogers was generally speaking. Mr. Yaughn tried to convince Hank Hughes. Mrs. Becky Ford replaced Mrs. Becky Moore after Christmas. i ' 'O HQ Senior English students were very serious about their studies. Innovative ways of presenting the great variety of areas of study in English are seen at LHS. For example, in Mr. Yaughn's Literary Concepts classes students often invent creative games for teaching. In classes like Career English, slides and tapes are used to reinforce skills of communication. One of the most valuable assets a student takes to college or to the world of work is the ability to communicate clearly and effectively. Students are being taught these skills at every level, as well as American, English, and World Literature. Mrs. Rogers is head of the English department. 199 How to Succeed in Business Students in the Business Education department learn to operate a variety of business machines, along with ac- quiring the traditional skills of typing, shorthand, and bookkeeping.

While Business Education facilities are slated to remain in the present build- ing, a work-study program in Voca- tional Office Training will be added with the comprehensive wing. One of the most popular courses at LHS, attracting students from all levels, is typing. Everyone likes to try his hand at it. Whether a student is col- lege bound, or headed directly to the world of work or vocational training, typing is a valuable skill to have. Se- cretarial typing and personal typing are offered to meet different needs. Z f-'ff mxskawfxa' tt it 2 Typing classes attracted large numbers of Mrs. Adams kept a watchful eye on students in office practice class. students. 200 Art Students Developed Many Talents mfs ',sYi5':f:-,1 ' 21:1 fr: f' va:--.:f4:'u - r Mr. Adams demonstrated techniques of Cristen Hagebak, talented in many areas of art, helped the annual staff meet their deadline with weaving. his photographic skill in taking and developing many pictures. Michelle DeMaio sketched a still life. Traci Rullan showed her oil painting to the specialized art class. An excellent art department offers LHS students the opportunity to develop their own particular talent and style of art. Every field of art requires special interest, talent, and skill. Under the expert guidance of Mr. Close and Mr. Adams, students are encouraged to use their imagination with their knowledge and skill to create something different. In addition to teaching at LHS, Mr. Close teaches adult art classes at CEA, and Mr. Adams often helps screen students for Governor's Honors Program. 201 New Faculty Members Sparked Only department chairman Mrs. Brown was not new to the science department at LHS this year- and she had a new son! All the vigor and ,- enthusiasm and fresh approaches made for a very interesting and successful year. Courses in science ranging from three levels of biology in the sophomore year through chemistry, physics, and human anatomy in the junior and senior years give students opportunities to experiment and explore. i to A I Mr. Guy was one of several new science teachers. af, 64 Plants flourish under the grow light and green thumb of Mrs. Brown. 202 Miss Caroline Hollinger replaced Mr. Jolley after fall quarter.

Last year was the first time a course in music theory had been offered at LHS. According to band director John Thompson, who teaches the course, You can't do anything in music without understanding music theoryf, Advanced music theory students write a musical arrangement to be performed by the LHS band in their spring concert. This is the first year that a mixed chorus has sung at LHS. Coach Atkins, the new director, conducts the 45 male and female voices. During the Christmas season, the chorus presented two concerts, one at the Presbyterian Church, and another at a Rotary Club meeting. 205 Drama Class Combined Talents This year at LHS, a student could earn school credit for participating in the performing arts. Mr. Wendell Adams was the creative power behind the formation ofthis class, aided by the musical expertise of Mr. WVayne Moseley of West Georgia CESA and Mrs. Daphne Ray of Instructional ser- vices. Mrs. julia Hope johnson choreographed the show. Mrs. Re- becca Nichols often served as rehear- sal pianist. Mrs. Summers and Mrs. Coldin of the Counselor's office helped with costumes. The class met daily for one full quarter to work on techniques of performing. Mrs. johnson kept the class jumping. With all this talent and community support, it is no wonder that the class produced a first rate musical revue, en- titled Music in Style,', which was en- thusiastically received by capacity au- diences. Plans are now being made to make this popular class a regular part of the curriculum each year. , 1 X AW. ,. 6, f , 'QVC Mrs. Nichols played on. 206 4.

Are you interested in learning how to weld metals or work with electrical circuits? How about mechanical drawing? Then maybe you need to see Mr. Harris, chairman of Industrial Arts. This versatile department gives the student an opportunity to explore and develop these talents. Industrial Arts serves as an excellent introduction to a wide variety ofjobs and also to college or vocational-technical school training in many areas. With the expansion of vocational courses upon completion of the comprehensive wing, this department will assume even greater importance in the curriculum. The department will continue to be housed in the present facilities, and introductory courses will be primarily for ninth graders, although open to all students. 208 Mr. Harris explained the dimensions of the Interact trophy case. While mechanical drawing students concentrated on their work, Robert Vaughn looked for more light on the subject. Love Puts Stars In Your Crown Mrs. Love administered an examination for Sue Ellen Stephens. FU' .l Roger Welborn, Destiny Manwour, and Karen Soltjs studied organic chemistry. Education is not limited to conventional classroom treatments of math and English. For some students at LHS, the Independent Study Program allows in-depth study of many interesting and challenging areas of academic knowledge - and some areas that are not strictly academic. Under the expert guidance of Mrs. Lollie Love, students conducted their own investigations into such fields as organic chemistry, advanced math, and medical technology. Whatever the field of endeavor, Mrs. Love challenges students to do their best. Her expressions such as 'Tm wording myself carefullyn and That,s a star in your crown inspired independent studiers to St1'iVe harder. 209 HEW Strikes Ageing , H 5 , y I A ,L 41.

Another change coming next year will be the utilization of the field house now under construction. A very popular course this year emphasized individual sports, such as shuffleboard and ping-pong, which students will continue to enjoy after their school days are over. The squeaking of tennis shoes and the groaning ofthe Weight-training equipment showed that the popularity of physical education has not diminished. P.E. is an integral part of many students' lives. From ping-pong to volleyball, students are participating in exercises to keep the bodies in shape as well as their minds. Girls showed that they could play vol- leyball just as well as any boy. 211 Roger Welbem at-tended the Math Institute Governor's Honors Program nominees and altemates for 1979 were Front row: Iimmy jordar for High Achievers at Aubum University, joseph Jones, Ken Colley.

You're lonely, confused, unhappy . . . Maybe life is all right, but you have no real meaning or purpose . . . Maybe you have health and wealth and friends enough, but you still feel there must be something more . . . There is a great need and longing in man for that which only Cod can give. Yet sin has separated all men from God and without Him, we always feel there is something missing . . . and there is! JESUS CHRIST IS THE ANSWER! In John 10:10 He said, I have come that ye might have life, and have it more abundantlyf, In Him, you can have: Forgiveness for sin, a new beginning in life A new heart attitude, inward joy and peace and love Strength and comfort for life's problems Wisdom and guidance for life's decisions A friend Who promises never to leave you Purpose and meaning in life, hope for tomorrow Admit you are a sinner in need ofa Saviour. He loves you enough to die for you and pay the penalty for your sin before you even knew Him. He's waiting for you to call on Him. Do it now: ask Him to be the Saviour and Lord of your life and find that SOMETHING MORE today.

To give some idea of the great variety of students represented in this class, this featu re was prepared by the GRANGER staff as a tribute to all '79 seniors. Ten per cent of the seniors were nomi- nated by their classmates and teachers for this honor. Each student nominated had to have a passing academic ave rage, no disciplinary record, and have contri- buted in some manner to some area of school life. From those nominated, the entire student body, by popular vote, named one boy and one girl as Mr. and Miss LHS. Each nominee was asked to respond to a questionnaire covering a va- riety of topics relevant to school and community, as well as individual interests and ambitions.

The Board o Education is doing a good job in prepar ing for the upcoming classes. l really like LaGrange. Pretty, popular Susan Gambrell says Being a senior at LHS has been more enjoyable for me than any ofthe previous years. You' re responsible for the impresj sions you leave on the classes below especially the sophomores. A senio must study and work hard . . . Susan has been a varsity cheerleadei for the past two years, and a member o' the band, Pep Club and Spanish Club She views the addition ofthe new wing as' very beneficial, and would like to see more girls taking courses traditionally open to boys only, and boys learning the basics of cooking and sewing. Susan wil attend Auburn University in the fall t major in fashion merchandising. Shj wants to go to Airline School after col- lege to become a flight attendant foi Delta Airlines. Co-captain of the varsity cheerleaders Margaret Beard says that being a cheer' leader has been a major aspect of hei high school career. Although it has de- manded much of my time, it has beer well worth it. l've made friends from al over, and felt a part of something specia at LHS.

Margaret Beard James Bryant potion in sports has given me a sense of responsibility toward the group of indi- viduals. James participated in both football and basketball and lettered in both sports during his junior and senior years. He will attend college at the Uni- versity of Arkansas and plans to major in Business Administration. Steve Burdette views sports as training for life. He explains, The competition between two teams is like a business competing with another business. This is what we'll have to face later in life. lf l can compete now it will help me face the pressures in the future a little bit better. Steve has competed in Cross-Country, if Steve Burdette Ronald Cox basketball, and golf, and lettered in both basketball and golf. He plans to attend UGA. Ronald Cox was one of the men behind the videotape camera, capturing the band's half-time shows. Ronald's atten- tion to detail may lead him into a career in architecture after his college days at Florida ASM or Savannah State. Ronald admits to having an eye for the ladies, citing the interesting girls he has met since coming to LHS as a major aspect of his high school career. l really enjoy dis- coing. ln a more serious vein, he says of his senior year, Truly, the thrill of be- coming a senior is something that everyone should experience. The greatest thrill for Wendy Cox was starring in the drama class production Wendy Cox number Bill Bailey. Being a senior class officer and being named to Senior Spot- light were also very rewarding to her. Looking back she realizes that, The greatest satisfaction for me is to know that I came this for with hardly any fai- lures. Wendy wants to attend college at UGA. She enjoys her part time job, at the LaGrange Child Development Center. 263 i l 'wa 2:11 . ,nl u',,m , Q r CI 1 nu. Dawn Denney The summer camp award tor the out- standing drill team member went to Dawn Denney. Her experiences as a part of this elite group have contributed to what she terms the most significant as- pect of her high school career, . . . the people l've met, the friends l've grown so close to over the years, ancl the knowl- edge l've gained to build on in the tu- ture. Dawn will attend UGA. A career in advertising is the goal of Mary Franklin. Her experiences in work- ing on the Annual staff, and doing se- cretarial work to the Troup County Rec- reation Department have helped her in this pursuit. Mary plans to attend UGA or VSC. She has enjoyed her involvement with school and community clubs such as Anchor, SAGE, SIGHT, Y-Club, and the LaSneet Debutante Club. Mary says, It's not easy to put my senior experience into words, but l know that it is one l'll never forget. 'R .7 Jill Garrett 5- st Ht . . , . Q Q' x X- Mary Franklin Mary Weyman Gunter 264 Varsity cheerleader Jill Garrett states that cheerleading . . . has made high school more exciting and enjoyable. lt has also made me a more responsible person. Jill is a member ofthe Anchor Club and Pep Club, and works part time as a bookkeeper for LaGrange RC Cola. She thinks that LaGrange is a great place to grow up, but l'm not sure that l'd want to live here forever. lf l ever have kids, though, l'd want them to grow up here. Active membership in fourteen school and community organizations may have prompted senior class secretary Mary Weyman Gunter to identify the most sig- nificant aspect of her high school career as . . . learning to cape with too many things to do at one time. Fortunately, Sonya Harrison her organizational skills enabled her to get it together. President of the Span- ish Club, she is also secretary to National Honor Society. She attended Governor's Honors, andthas been LEO sweetheart this year. Future plans include Furman University with a major in psychology or computer science. l X -Sonya Harrison hopes to attend col- lege at Central State University in Ohio, majoring in fine and applied arts. She plans a career as a professional dancer. Sonya is a member of the drill team, the chorus, the Pep Club and Drama Club, and serves as chairman of the LaSneet Debutante Club. She reflects on being a senior, It's exciting and frightening to know that you are going to be oh your own after this year, but it's a good feeling to know that you made it. Joyce Holloway especially enjoyed being a teacher's aide in her favorite sub- ject, English. She served as president of FHA and was a member of the drill team for three years. She will attend college at UGA and plans a career in either ac- counting or social work. She thinks the changes that are taking place are great, only they're happening when l'm getting ready to leave. lt'll be nice to come home to, though. The thing that stands out most when I think of high school is all the friends l've made, not only with my fellow students, but with many of the teachers also, comments Kari Jenkins. l know l've learned a lot of math, English and sci- ence, but l've also learned a great deal from my personal experiences with my friends. Kari, a talented artist and valu- able member of the tennis team, has exhibited leadership through Octagon Club and NHS. She plans to attend Au- lburn University. The outstanding aspect of being a se- lnior, says Alan Johns, is the sudden Holloway ,nassaui-g lack of someone to look up to. Now you are the leaders. You have more respon- sibilities in clubs and organizations. But that's good, because we all have to face responsibility sometime. Alan, president ofthe National Honor Society, and a semi-finalist in National Merit Scholarship competition, was also a member of the varsity football team. He rates football as the most significant aspect of his high school career. Foot- ball is an entirely different experience. Kari Jenkins Where else can a student hear 6,000 people screaming because of something he has done - or not done? Another activity which Alan found rewarding was his work with the Youth Association for Retarded Citizens. He is state treasurer of this organization. Alan plans to attend the University of Georgia. The most important factor in success, he says, . . . is knowing what you want and how to get it. You can't sit back and for something good to ll have a long wait. he hoped to be ten he replied, l hope to be at my 28th birthday party. years Gary Johnson sees sports as helping to build the body physically and also help- ing in learning . . . to work and per- 3 vw . .

Gary says that he is glad to see changes . . . making LaGrange a bet- ter place for recreational and educa- tional purposes, however, the changes are coming too late for me. LaGrange is a nice place to live. The 'Senior Experience' has been rewarding to me. Leadership and sports have occupied much of the time of Lane Johnson. He lettered in cross-country and in track, and participated in basketball all three years. Active in civic and community af- fairs, he serves as president of the Key Club and vice-president of the FCA. Gary Johnson ll ' Q , ' ii.

The lake has made a major change in our town. ln- dustrial development has grown and so has the population. l think the changes are good. l just hope LaGrange doesn't get too big. Like his twin brother Lane, Wayne Johnson has made a significant contribu- tion to LHS in sports and in overall lead- ership. He lettered in tennis and basket- ball for three years and participated in cross-country. He believes that sports participation is very beneficial. ln sports you have to set a goal and work toward that goal. That's what it takes to be suc- cessful, setting goals in business and working toward them. You also learn to work as a part of a team with other players. This is an important aspect of life, being able to get along with fellow workers. Wayne is a member of the Key Club, FCA, Drama Club, and was presi- dent of his Junior class. Basketball was the most significant as- pect of high school life for Barry Kelley. Making the team in his sophomore year, he went on to letter in llth and l2th grades. He feels that his participation in sports helped him to obtain good aca- demic grade levels. Barry plans to at- tend college, and wants a career in pro- 266 Wayne Johnson fessional basketball. He believes that, . . . in order for a person to be success- ful it takes hard work and a certain amount of desire. His favorite subject is Afro-American history, because l can learn more about the histow of my fellow black Americans and their develop- ment. Co-captain of the Drill Team, Ann Lazzo believes that the most important aspect of her high school career has been learning to handle responsibility. ln- it Barry Kelly volvement in clubs, organizations, anc classes has taught me to be able to rely on myself to get the job done. A person obtains success through hard work, de- termination, and a healthy self-image. You must believe in yourself first, Ac- tive in Anchor Club, Ann says that clubs are good. Through them we learn how to handle responsibility. She will attend Mercer University next fall. I enjoy being as busy as possible, says drum major Emily Lester. Seldom does one individual excel in so many areas. She led the Granger band, was Octagon Club president and Key Clul: QP Ann Lazzo sweetheart, managed the girls' basket ball team, and participated in track ani- in drama. Emily feels that her partici potion in athletics has helped me witl- my self-determination and will power Distance running needs both. She think that because of the growing participatio in girls in athletics at LHS, they should bl admitted to the FCA. Talented in man' areas of music, she plans to attend Davi Lipscomb college to develop further h musical and dramatic potential. Emil was this year's winner of the DAR Goo- Citizenship award. According to Destiny Mansour, pa time jobs for students are important. Sh S' Emily Lester says, Working has added to my total development. lt has shown me the impor- tance of being dependable enough to de- dicate a large part of my tree time to work. It has also given me the satisfac- tion of having my own spending money. Destiny has found time for involvement in NHS and Spanish Club, as well as Math, Drama and Pep Club. She plans a career in the medical field and will attend Emory University. Luke Mansour has served as president l .4-g Mansour Luke Mansour Sandra Merideth of the LHS Interact Club this year and also as District 690 Governor. He credits his association with lnteroct as being one ot the most significant aspects of his high school career, and, quite naturally, be- lieves that the 77-78 and 78-79 Interact Clubs were the best they've ever been. Luke works part-time, and has partici- pated in wrestling, tennis and track. He plans to attend UGA. Although being a senior has been fun tor Sandro Merideth, she admits that . . . the role as senior is not always roses and tulips. You feel frustrated wait- ing for SAT scores to return, to get ad- mission into a college of your choice, get- ting ready for the oncoming year, and many other things. However, Sandra points out something that she has learned from working at a job that helps a lot of situations. l find that a sincere smile can warm anyone's heart. She is active in school and church groups, and the LaSneet Debutante Club. She plans to major in voice at the University of Tennessee, and will prepare for a per- forming career as well as teaching music. A studied opinion of the vocational wing was expressed by Edmund Moore. He decided that it was . . . o very good move by the city. It will increase the qual- ity of education . . . students will have a greater variety ot courses from which to choose. All of the sports activities will be helped . . . the ninth grade students will mature at a taster rate. Edmund partici- pated in track and cross-country, and feels that sports participation improved the quality of his school work. He will attend Florida A8.M. Edmund Moore 267 Steve Parker l'm a ramblin' kinda guy, admits Steve Parker, but he adds, LaGrange is a fantastic place to live. l would like to settle down - someday - in a town comparable to LaGrange in as many ways as possible, yet different in that it offers a significantly greater market in entertainment and job opportunities in communications. Communications ranks high on Steve's list of priorities. He plans a career in journalism!radio!TV following gradua- tion from Furman University. Steve views his involvement with the Annual as the most significant aspect of his high school career. He writes for the local newspa- per, and works at a local radio station. President of the LEO Club, and the FCA, and state vice-president of the National Honor Society, he lettered in baseball all three years at LHS, and played American Legion baseball. Speaking in retrospect on The Senior Experience, Steve cautions, Don't get up to your neck in extra-curricular ac- tivities. Because l got 'too involved' in school activities, I consider the greatest achievement of my high school career to be that of maintaining high academic standards in spite of the extra-curricular overload. You can improve your perfor- mance in every field if you limit your ac- tivities. I only regret not having embodied my own philosophy. 268 Making decisions and standing upon them has become a way of life for Char- lette Reed. She maintains a busy aca- demic and social schedule, is a varsity cheerleader, and a member of many school clubs and the LaSneet Debutante Club. Charlette participated in the Gov- ernor's Honor Program last summer, and if L-9' Charlette Reed Debra Reed fr i' l 5 Q I ie... - Q K 2. 4 A 705 V W y l 1 QQ' A 'CQ l rf, ' +' , it ' GI-' , w Hugh Rutledge plans to attend either Emory University, or Fisk in the fall. Her ambition is to be- come a pediatrician. Charlette says, in regard to grades, When I try hard and do well, I am elated. When l try hard and fail, l am disconcerted. Then l wonder if it was worth it. Being a National Achievement Scholarship finalist was one of many honors earned by Cha rlette,, All of these things were part of my Se-l nior Experience, and have made it one to' be cherished. The lady Grangers played champi-i onship caliber basketball this year. One of the great contributing factors was team captain Debra Reed, voted Most Valuable Player in the Winter Games. Debra has served as a teacher's aide in both English and Spanish and as presi- dent of the Y-club. She feels that sports has given me a greater feeling of respon- sibility and leadership. She will attend either Valdosta State College or Mercer University. Participation in both football an baseball earned letters for Hugh Rut ledge but football is his first love. He say that football gave me a chance to sho my ability not only to the student bod and teachers, but to college scouts also.' Speaking of LaGrange, Hugh reflect that the people are nice. You have lot of people supporting the athletic pro gram, and the people respect you. H plans to attend Tennessee Tech an wants to become a P.E. teacher. H would like a possible chance to play pr ball, if the good Lord sees me through.' The favorite subject of Karen Soltis is science, because it illustrates how beau- tiful and fascinating life really is. Karen plans to continue her study in this field at Vanderbilt, looking toward a career in medicine. She has been a varsity cheer- leader and a class officer, and active in National Honor Society and Math Club. The most significant aspect of her high school career has been learning to get along with others, as well as the impor- tance of being an individual. She com- pares the senior experience to that of a hiker approaching a fork in the road at the end of a twelve mile journey. He must decide which way to go, just as I must . . . lthink of the wonderful future l have open to me, and the choice is totally my own. The Annual has been o unique expe- rience, says editor-in-chief Cass Trot- ter, and the most satisfying project l've ever worked on. Cass also enjoys tennis, and has posted an outstanding record in competition. She will attend Auburn Uni- versity, possibly seeking a career in phys- ical therapy. She ranks LaGrange as an excellent place to live, offering outstand- ing educational, recreational, medical, and financial opportunities to people of all ages. However, she notes that for many students at LHS, the 'Senior Expe- rience' is hardly an experience at all. The problem is one of student apathy. The graduating class of i979 is in need of more desire and spirit. Large numbers of seniors hurry to graduate because of dis- interest in school. What would it take to keep students at LHS? More student body activities would help a lot. An active student council, dances, pep rallies, as- semblies, and more privileges might help. But it is not completely up to the administration. Each student has to pos- sess discipline and desire. By the time a student is a senior, it's a little too late to start instilling these qualities. Making students want to learn and want to be at school and use the wonderful educa- tional opportunities that LaGrange can offer is a task that must begin in grade one, or before, and involve home, school, and community. When she was elected sophomore class president, Victa Willis realized all of a sudden how much responsibility a position like that required. l loved it. That was my first major step in high school. Since that time, this varsity cheerleader has demonstrated leadership in SAGE, Drama Club, Spanish Club, band, and LaSneet Debutante Club. She hopes for a career in law and politics after gradua- tion from Fisk. She says one problem that seniors have is the expense of pictures, announcements, caps and gowns, and so on.

Ten years from now, says Norma, l hope to be a student of low and a successful ebusi- nesswoman. I also hope to be making plans for the ten year reunion of the Class of '79 of LaGrange High School. 269 The Granger Experience It was a year to remember - ending a decade we would never forget. The Seventies had left their mark on the world, on the nation, on the commu- nity - and on us. The faces of students and faculty mirrored the change ofa decade ofin- tegration. The quarter system adopted in the Seventies reflected the attempt to make learning more relevant and di- gestible for the student. Physical changes such as the addition of air- conditioning made the school envi- ronment more conducive to learning. New faculty and staff members joined us in our quest for knowledge. Now. in the final year of the decade, an ambi- tious building program was taking shape rapidly before our eyes. The communi- ty, in calling for the comprehensive wing, was voicing its hope for a better future for all its citizens. As maturing young adults, we have learned to live with the changes taking place within us and about us. We have learned to live with change - and to benefit from it. Working and learning together in changing circumstances, participating in student body ac- tivities and athletics, serving and growing through and in responsibility - these were the major achievements of our decade. New and expanded facilitites may expedite and make easier the task, but the human dimen- sion remains of paramount importance. For instance, the ninth grade students and faculty, denied by fate their an- ticipated separate campus, neverthe- less made the best of another year at junior High and still managed to feel a part of the High School. Friends and classes, faculty and staff, our environment, activities and athletics - all have been affected by the forces of LaChange. We have en- countered, endured, and been made stronger by it. We are proud of the achievements of the past, we look res- olutely toward the future. 270 . . . a decade we would never forgetf, Faces of students . . . mirrored the change ofa decade . .
