Crearr of the Crop T.V. stars of the school had to be the It’s Academic Team. The three students who appeared on WRC- TV's award-winning “It’s Academic” were Lake Braddock’%. cream of the crop. The members and their alternates met every Monday to practice answering questions on various academic subjects. This year was extra special for one member of the team, Steve Rhinehart. Steve was the youngest member on the It’s Academic team in Lake Braddock’s history. He was a tenth grader. For the entire team and the sponsor, Mrs. Bernie Glaze, it was a rich and rewarding season of competition. IT'S ACADEMIC TEAM: Mark Beebe, Phil Plait, Steve Rhinehart. Sponsor: Bernie Glaze.

Assembly Line Photographer Dean Surrette leafs through an old yearbook looking for ideas. Who really put together your year- book? Who compiled all of these words and pictures into a 368 page extravaganza of timeless literature? The answer could be found in the foreign language area in room C-207. From sixth period until well into the evening, the yearbook staff labored in writing and re-writing, designing, cutting and waxing to perfection one of the largest volumes in the county. Prospective yearbook members were nominated by their English teachers of the previous year and took a test to get accepted to the staff by the sponsors, Mrs. Dodie Hruby and Ms. Sandy Murray. Dur- ing the summer of 1981, the two co-editors, Karen Levin and Janet Pelzel. ventured into the wilds of Pennsylvania and returned trium- phantly with a second place trophy for the ‘82 “Lair” yearbook designs. The sounds of yearbook making were many and varied: Get off my disk!”...“ls this a good headline?”...“Will you be printing today?’’...“Whew, I finally finished.” In spite of varying degrees of experience and slight confusion, another great edition of The Lair” emerged.

orensics sponsor Jane Powell jots down omments about the speeches. Wendy Hirst and Katie Stafford do the Gingerbread Lady” as a dramatic duo. If you were to ask who was the best qualified to read and interpret poetry and other literature and give spur-of-the-moment speeches, the answer would probably be the seven members of the Forensics Team. This talented group of students attended many tour- naments within the region flaun- ting their command of the language in such areas as dramatic interpretation, original oratory, and extemporaneous speaking. Both sponsor Jane Powell and the members of this Forensics Team put in long hours of work, but at the end of the year, upon looking back, it was obvious- ly worth it all. FORENSICS: Jane Blair, Jim Bondi, Darla Evans, Wendy Hirst, Deborah Samuels. Katie Stafford, Jennifer Staton. Sponsor: Jane Powell. Katie Stafford and Jennifer Staton prepare for their original oratory. Clubs 239
