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.

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. Mark Beebe and Phil Plait attend a pratice session after school. Sponsor Bernie Glaze reads a question for the team members to answer. Alternate Mark McDowell awaits the next question. 238 Time Out

The shape of the day's labor is formed by Ann Drake. For those students who enjoy French culture and the French language, there was the French club. And for those who excel in. their work and are in at least their second year of French, the French Honor Society existed. Dining on haute cuisine at Gallic restaurants and with the other foreign language clubs at the progressive dinner was one of the ways spice was added to the year by these organizations. Additional excite- ment was supplied by the viewing of French films. This excursion in- to French life was rounded out by singing native songs. Quite a year!
