Although some area schools have chosen an exemption plan for quarter tests, Arlington has never opted for one. Awaiting the crowning of the Homecoming Queen, Iunior Princess Lynn Cole is escorted by Blake Houchin. Homecoming has gradually become an expensive tradition, complete with new clothes, a mum or boutonniere, and an exquisite dinner after the game hm-vv , 1 ,ss 3 2 J 1 'f ' , . f Elia -i., -fs , 4- l , 1 E2 13 iiieh i ? f K f K- V musk, 15 if po- 1 L l K 4 The Opening l - .

The choir gave a formal presentation of the Alma Mater at its first concert in October, 1970. The first issue of The Scroll was printed in February of 1971. 4 These 'lfirsts in addition to various other activities nurtured a growing pride in Lamar and its student body. Not all of the original ideas for Lamar's foundation have remained. Experiences accumulated throughout the years. Repeated successes survived and failures gave way to more experiments and new theories. But the cornerstone, the basic concept, has remained unchanged-to hold onto the past with its triumphs and successes, but to continue to improve, progressing toward the future-to keep the change. During the Homecoming game, Thor, David Groves, gives Tracie Tips a rest. For the Grst time in Lamar's history, Thor attended the summer camp and did routine lifts with the cheerleaders. Al the ninth annual Autumn Harvest, Susan Reilly and Pat Pacheco sell Viking mugs and directories for the Student Council. Begun in the fall of 1971, Autumn Harvest was still the most popular and entertaining way for clubs to earn money. l F 55.

Skirts went from mini to maxi to midi during the last 10 years. Changes rem Howdy Day, semesters, basketball queens, hip huggers, streaking, mini-skirts, puka shells and leisure suits-ah, yes-those were the good old days-or were they? As the school has grown older during the past 10 years many of the ways of the students have changed. Remember when a phone call could be made for a dime, a coke was only 15 cents, and gas was only 40 cents a gallon? That wasn't too long ago-but, things have changed. For students now, a phone call was 25 cents, a coke was 30 cents, gas was over 1 dollar a gallon. Maybe those were the good old days. On the other hand, not all had gone for the worse. No longer were knit pantsuits, leisure suits and baby doll swim suits popular. Fashion had changed to western wear, slit skirts, T-shirts, and bikinis. During the past 10 years things had changed, but many things had basically ain constant stayed the same. Many of the activities of the students were the same throughout the years. Movies, basketball games, football games, and dances remained main attractions to many. Although dances were still popular they had changed over the years. ln the early '7O's, rock and roll was the in thing. Then in the mid '70's disco music was at the top of the polls. However, now the dances were not only disco, but country western or as they were called - kicker dances. What about some of the traditional school sponsored events? Well-there was Homecoming, Autumn Harvest, choir musicals, club banquets, the Awards Assembly and many others. As the 10th year came to an end many changes had been made, but many will always remain. Maybe, these will soon be considered the good old days. ln complete Viking costume, Lamar's first Thor was chosen to promote spirit. Starting out in the first year the mascot has been designated by a committee of students and faculty. Although several girls have vied for the title it has always gone to a senior boy. The Events 7 Listening to plans for their Homecoming Hall, Babs Ancelin, finger Fry, Peggy Manion and other representatives participate in Sophomore Class Council. Other clubs such as foreign languages, FBLA, VOE, and HOE also met at 8:15 on the same Wednesday mornings, Students gather in the cafeteria for some early morning socializing while waiting for the 8:50 a.m. bell to ring that allows them to go upstairs. The cafeteria served juice, milk, cokes, and sweet rolls for students who chose not to eat breakfast at home. WincheIl's, being one of the only breakfast places close to Lamar, was a popular spot on early mornings. Mary Louis has a hard time choosing from the tempting variety of doughnuts. .

From 8:15 to 8:50 a.m, was Activity Period, time when students could participate in activities regardless of any after school obligations. Those involved attended club or council meetings, while other students chose to sleep-in, as classes did not begin until 8:55 a.m, Many Wednesday mornings, some students breakfast at Winchell's before class. Bus students that had to be at school or others that just liked to arrive early, sat in the cafeteria and talked, played cards and listened to the radio. Some students even danced! A1-r Student Council meets at 8 a.m. in the library on alternate Wednesdays. Senior Class Council and Student Council met on the same day, with the other councils and clubs meeting on the other Wednesday. This was the first year for any other meeting to be held on Student Council day. In an unusual Wednesday moming activity, a wedding shower, given by the Social Studies Department, honors Ms. Nanci Hooper, soon-to-be Ms. lack L. Tyler. Ms. ludy jones helps by recording each gift. Ms. Hooper was married Nov. 16 at the Parkview Baptist Church. llgsiv' l Summer Where Heat Boredom impatience Only fifteen more to go. uls this line ever gonna move? These were commonplace thoughts last summer, as many students spent their time waiting in gas lines. With prices climbing to 95 cents a gallon coupled with the odd-even gas rationing plan set up by Gov. Bill Clements for the metroplex area, many people chose to spend the summer months closer to home. Numerous students went to work to ease the boredom and pad the pocket- book. lobs ranged from working in fast food joints and babysitting to cashiering and mowing lawns. A large portion of students chose to work at Six Flags Over Texas doing anything from lifeguarding to performing in the shows. Others, such as those involved with the drill team, cheerleading and the speech and publication departments, spent their time at camps and seminars, preparing for the upcoming year. ln early june, the oil spill along the Texas The Vi-Queens spent much of their time during the late summer rehearsing for the upcoming football season. The girls begin each day with a heavy regime of calisthenics and stretching exercises. 1 HH oi? coast cut many trips to Padre Island. Also in lune, America lost one of its favorite stars, john Wayne.

Temperatures in luly continued to soar. ln the middle of july, NASA's orbiting laboratory, Skylab, fell from its orbit onto Australia and into surrounding oceans. The largest piece was found on the Australian mainland and used as part of the Miss Universe Pageant decorations. August brought the beginning of various team practices and the dreaded two-a-day workouts for the volleyball and football teams. It also brought the long-awaited annuals and the not so long-awaited registration. Registration went much faster and was more organized, as this was the second year to use the computerized system. On August 26, a rock concert called 'Tarewell To A Texas Summer was held in the Cotton Bowl. The jam starred Foghat and various others. This celebration signaled the end of the last summer of the '70s .,?.,.,v..,. fi i X ..

Students met in parking lots when there was nothing better to do. Sometimes the police would break up the loitering when things got a little noisy for area businesses, and residences. For some students, getting away on the weekend was enough. There was plenty of school night life to be offered. Sporting events took up a lot of weekend evenings, as well as school nights. Football reigned over the night life from early September until the last game in November. After games several victory dances were held in the cafeteria, usually featuring a disco for 51.50 stag and 52.00 a couple. Basketball games took over the dull winter weekends. Games were held at area teams' gyms. City team games were held at U.T.A.'s Texas Hall, or our own gym. Autumn Harvest . . . The Night of lanuary 16th . . . South Pacific . . .

On the local scene, students were facing tragedies of their own: the end of the first quarter and exams. Football season fizzled out with losses against Richland and Sam Houston, as basketball season began. The last weekend in November held the fall production of The Night of lanuary 16th. The play was unusual, as members of the audience were chosen to serve as the jury. The Drama Department was somewhat disappointed in the turnout as only about one-fifth of the student body came to the production. November drew to a close with a new quarter and high hopes for the upcoming month of December. Members of the backstage crew, Amy Western and Mark Talbot work to see that the lights function properly during the play. Approximately six weeks of preparation went into the drama produdion. 26 The Events Defense Attorney, Lorri Vaughter, questions a witness during the fall production. Kirsten Meyer, portraying Karen Andre, was Lorri's defendent. Charged of murder, she was found innocent in both productions by the audience jury. nj Six Flags over Texas held its first annual hot-air balloon race: due to high winds the balloons were l i. xl x I i l l l 4 ' af 3 E not launched until a later day. 3 I UNM ,R fr. sf- . , . its a'1M.,r 1 ,MI - H -, f L ' , , , V After the Sam Houston football game, the defeated Vikes gather for the last time of the season. lt was a Viking tradition to close each game with a prayer and the Alma Mater, Proving that shop classes too must study, Peter Pang, Todd Dennis, Keith Harmon and,Matt Laughin take final exams before leaving for the Thanksgiving holidays.

The usual December brings about. thoughts of ho, ho, ho, and Happy Hannukah. Yet last December was a time of emotion more than many others. The American hostages were still being held in Iran. The Shah was still in America receiving treatmentp in December, he was transferred to Lackland Air Force base in San Antonio. Americans united by sending thousands of Christmas cards to the hostages. They also flew the American flag and wore white tags displaying unity. The Christmas tree in Washington was lightless except for the Star of Hope which, as announced by President Carter, would remain so until all the hostages were returned home. Amidst the hustle and bustle of Christmas shopping the World Gymnastics Competition was held in Fort Worth Dec. 2-9. This brought worldwide recognition to the area. Aside from all world and national events, students still found their school life traditional with caroling, parties and after school jobs. The month of December was a full and demanding one for most. December w-as also the time to say goodbye to the 1919 year. Seniors prepared for the last half of thelir final year. .The month seemed to be a story in itself . . . a time to be remembered. Caroling by candlelight, the German Club members made their rounds singing in German with sponsor Ms. Ruth Buechlein.

There was Vesper practice for those seniors who choose to go, and then finals were taken and school was out. It was almost over. The Vesper Service came and went and with it slowly came the realization that it was actually happening. The Senior Class of 1980 was going to graduate in two daYS. Graduation practice loomed ahead and with it began a build-up of emotions. On May 27, at 8 p.m. the commen- cement ceremony began. The class was restless as they waited to walk across the stage.

As the school has grown so has the variety of classes. According to Ms. ludy Jones there have been many new math courses added. When Lamar opened it housed grades 9-11 only. We offered only the basic math courses. What are the most popular math courses? 'IPopular is not an adjective we hear often in the math department, and l'd probably be challenged on any course I mentioned. We offer more sections of Algebra ll and geometry than any other math course, but these are considered required courses, not optional. As far as optional courses are concerned-more students are enrolled in trigonometryfelementary analysis-but I would hesitate to call it the most popular math course.

Twenty percent of the class of 1980 took four classes in English not just the three required quarters. Seniors seem to like the choices. I'In 1970-1972, straight core was the only senior English course offered. In 1973, electives began: Shakespeare, Visual Literacy and Practical English. In 1976, grammar, composition, and reading were added. Many new business courses have also evolved according to the head of the business department, Ms. Lavinia Atchley. When Lamar first opened we offered: Accounting l, Shorthand I, Typing I and Il and General Business. Two or three years later we added Recordkeeping, Shorthand ll and Business Law.

Even within the required subject areas, there was room for choice. The English and Math Departments' schedule of classes included many ad- vanced courses for those with an above- average interest in those areas. The college-bound students felt that these courses would enhance their chances of future educational success. Psychology students were faced with a totally new type of learning experience. Subjects such as death, sex and birth control were openly discussed. Even quarter tests were given with a new aspect. lf students fell asleep to the music being played, they received an A+j if they relaxed, an A. For those who wished to learn a foreign language, several choices were available. Spanish, French, Latin and German were offered and were either loved or hated by the students. There were no middle-ground feelings about these subjects. Some foreign language students took advantage of the opportunity to travel abroad during the summer. Astronomy, a class offered for the first time this year was to be discontinued due to the numerous hours that were spent doing labwork. Even though this class seemed to be enjoyed for the most part, there was just too much work to be accomplished in a 55 minute class. The classes listed by students as being the most beneficial were English and math. As Denise Mann stated, l'l learned a lot in my English ll class. We did many fun, things and l found myself enjoying even some of the tougher assignments. 1 PE was thought to be the least beneficial, but was listed at the top as being the most helpful in learning to interact with others. Overall, most students said they were pleased with the diverse curriculum because it enabled them to advance established interests and to develop new ones.

Analyzing magazine advertisements, MOCE students ponder over the latest of their many interesting and varied assignments. Other subject areas explored were income tax, investments and real estate. Touch of Class 51 Students cut class in style Although the classroom was the tradi- tional setting for learning, certain classes broke away from school to explore and learn from new places. The places varied all the way from a furniture store visited by Home Furnishings students to plays attended by Latin and Shakespeare students. Some field trips showed a more unpleasant, realistic view of life such as a Home and Family Living's trip to divorce court. Others revealed practical skills in use such as the power mechanics students' trip to General Motors. A different type of field trip consisted of groups such as choir, debate, band or drama attending UIL competition. However, no matter where students went on field trips, they provided an enjoyable break in the monotony of classroom life and learning experience. Dressing in surgical scrub suits, HOE students Patty Prier and Barbara Upshaw prepare to go see a gal bladder surgery preformed at Hughley Memoria Hospital in Fort Worth.

These students saw how professional ads and layouts were drawn up and learned facts concerning admittance to the commercial art college. Field trips 53 The land of make-believe Imagination ran rampant throughout various classrooms in the hope of providing a learning experience. Many foreign language classes organized skits to be performed in their specific language. This gave students the opportuni- ty to practice speaking skills. Some American History classes also used their imaginations by forming their own countries. They then tried to negotiate peace and avoid starting a war. However, one class was unsuccessful in that a paper-wad war commenced, Another type of pretending was exper- ienced in psychology classes. Students were required to keep their eyes shut for about 30 minutes to gain better understanding of blindness. One of their activities included hearing a film. By letting their imaginations run loose, students learned from simulated experience in a variety of classes. 54 The Classes Carrying out a mock wedding ceremony, Alison Meyer, liiizabeth Skinner, Tammy Agee and Brian Hall learn all of the factors involved in a wedding, Home and Family Living students were each assigned to Exhibiting intricate make-up designs, Colyn Scott and Cris Escue display an important part of a drama production, Drama students studied all the aspects of putting on various productions. specific duties in order to carry out a realistic wedding ceremony and reception.

Three classes of Photography l and one class of Photo Il were offered for students interested in this field of study. IJ, Skills taught mechanically From the silent little calculators common to math students to the great whining saws used only in shop classes, machinery played an important role in school life. Without them, there would have been no newspaper or annual, math would have been even more tedious and time- consuming, the athletic teams might not have been as physically fit and shop classes could not have been offered. Students would not have learned to type or to use the many business machines and there certainly would have been no photography classes. The bottom line is that no area of school life would have been left unaffected. Computers chose class schedules, teachers used machines to mimeograph worksheets and tests, and calculators were used to compute grades. Many classes could not have been offered at all, and the others would have changed in one way or another. Without projectors, films could not have been used as teaching aids and as a variation from everyday routines. The cafeteria would have been filled to capacity each day for there would have been no cars. Machines played an interesting and important role in school life and to have eliminated them would have been a definite step backward in the educational process. Executing the military press, Bob Frank takes advantage of the well-equipped weight room to develop stronger arm muscles. Even though there was not a special class devoted to weight lifting, PE and athletic students were able to use these facilities. Machines 57 A-hum, attention please Every class offered the opportunity to communicate in one way or another, But some, such as speech, drama, debate, English and the foreign languages were devoted to the teaching of this arf. Each student was involved in one or more of these subject areas which often provided the chance to be creative while learning. One assignment in speech was to present an advertisement promoting a product or cause. Women's lib and child abuse were among the varied subjects. Reciting dialogue in a foreign language was among the requirements of those classes. While in English, the students participat- ed in panel discussions and gave one- person presentations over the subject matter. Even the civics classes were given the opportunity to speak out through campaign speeches that were personally written. Whatever the subject, the students improved their speaking skills in a variety of imaginative ways. 35?

Inventors and inventions poured out daily whether a student was learning how to add llspice to gourmet cooking, a double twist on a jump shot in basketball or a new postulate for doing a proof. The home economics classes made pillows for their own purposes. Besides ordinary throw-pillows some students hnr. Einstein made them in the shape of animals or hot dogs. Many shop students made race cars, desk and magazine racks. Some of the students that went to Arlington High School for cosmetology learned new ways to apply makeup and fix hairdos. The diversity of these classes allowed students to become lgeniuses' in almost any field. , .5- fm VI t e I 1 ., me Working in Industrial Arts, Russell Blum puts the finishing touches on a desk that he has been working on. Students were allowed to make what they wanted to for a project and were then graded on quality and workmanship.

Other skills such as basic silversmithing were learned firsthand by geology students. lade and rubies were polished and formed into jewelry. Students were able to make earrings, necklaces and rings. Another experiment in the physics room delt with elastic collisions. An air hockey table, pucs, strobe light and a camera were used to learn about this phenomena. By measuring the refraction angle, time and distance, properties such as velocity were calculated. ln addition, by applying heat, com- pounds were created by chemistry students. Another lab project was to find, analyze and compare the various properties of elements. But no matter what class an experiment was being conducted in, the teacher usually had one purpose in mind. According to Ms. Karen Matsler, it was llthe visual reinforcement in students of what was learned in the classroom. Likewise to students, experiments were more than just a break from the normal classroom studies. Chemistry student Shirley Kemp explained that they were educational 'because it is easier to learn from experiments than a book. Cindy Vaughn added, You get more information out of a lab than a book. Along with the fun, the educational benefits of experiments made them basic ingredients to all science classes. Experimenting 63 l E Work: learning by earning Earning money may be the only reason some people work, but for vocational students, money is only the beginning. With minimum wage at 53.10, students were paid an average of 53.30 per hour. Priceless experience was also gained. Other advantages included earning extra school credit and developing work skills before graduation. Teaching by doing was the philosophy behind vocational classes. They included Distributive Education which offered on-the-job training in marketing, merchandising and distribution of goods and services and Vocational Agriculture which introduced students to various areas of the agriculture industry. Similarly, Vocational Agriculture Cooper- ative gave students the opportunity to earn money while training as a veterinary assistant, nursery worker or horse farm employee. Home Economics Cooperative ttf Education provided opportunities for jobs ranging from child care aide to fashion coordinator. Health Occupation Education offered orientation and career exploration in the health fields, while Vocational Office Education built the skills for employment in a simulated business office situation. Another class, the Coordinated Vocational-Academic Education was a supervised on-the-job training program in unskilled or semi-skilled jobs, and Industrial Cooperative Training offered a work program for skilled occupations with part-time work in the community. Ms. Connie Echart felt that vocational students were ahead of the nonworking student upon graduation 'lbecause they had a broader view of the world of work and, most important, they had experience. ...X . 33 ' '.

In the three musical departments, these exclamations were heard repeatedly. ln band, orchestra and choir, students were required to rehearse each day during class and after school when preparing for a concert or contest. However, most students viewed the continuous practice not as tedious, but rfun. Robert Davis, symphonic band member, 'elated that practice was 'lfun if you're nterested in music. Plus, it helps you get again, Vikes better. Varangian member Kevin Little added that llif you're going to be good you have to rehearse each day. We are good because we practice, he said.

Transferring thoughts to paper proved to be beneficial. Many students chose to do this of their own free will by taking classes such as journalism. ln addition, those who were qualified became members of the newspaper or yearbook staffs. These industrious students spent many long hours and suffered numerous headaches while laboring over articles and layouts. Those who preferred not to spend their elective credits on classes which required writing did not escape the matter, however. Mandatory English classes were required for all three years. In these classes, instructions for writing well-constructed paragraphs, themes and the forever dreaded junior research paper were drilled into unsuspecting minds. On the senior level, students were given the choice of taking regular English or choosing a specialized alternative. These included classes in Shakespeare, grammar, reading and composition. So, in spite of all the misery and headaches usually associated with it, students continued to iwrite on.'

Lamar offered a variety of classes in which students could express themselves and let their creativity run wild. Departments such as homemaking, shop and art were divided into specialized classes to suit individual preferences. For example, one could take sewing, cooking, Child Developement, Home and Family Living or even Home Furnishings for a quarter as a start into the world of homemaking. Shop offered metal working, wood working and drafting for quarter credits while art was divided into painting and commercial art, just to name a few. ln creative classes such as these where students frequently used their hands, many projects were often required. Through these projects, such skills as repairing clothes, preparing a gourmet dinner, making furniture or even learning how to live on your own were acquired. The usefulness of these creative classes was best summed up by homemaking teacher Ms, Carol Wilson. They are the most relevant classes one can take.

Sophomores were in for a big awakening when they became part of the everyday routine at Lamar. UOh the games people play now, everynight and everyday now. The everyday routine was different for every student. Some students didn't come to school until 9:30 a.m. and others got out at 12:30 p.m. Each student traveled to the beat of a different drum and played a different game. ul believe that by playing games, a student often remembered how a word is conjugated. Students try harder while playing games as not to be embarrassed in front of their peers, commented French teacher, Ms. Darlene Alford. Games were played by language, math, English and business classes. Many psychologists found that word association was vital and so did Sophomore English teachers and students. Latin teacher, Ms. Carolyn Brannen explained, Charades is a favorite game of my Latin students. Around Christmas time, the classes divide into partners with two teams. The winners get bonus points, so the game often gets pretty heated. Language classes otten enjoyed playing other games such as Bingo, uLoteria or Password. During a student's sophomore year in English, he was required to read either an autobiography or a biography and dress up like the main character from the book. j uDressing up was sort of embarrassing, but it was easy to remember what other people read and what the story was about, recalled Krista Kearley.

Who's Who 79 THE lNVOLVED The Foreign Language Winter Party was a tradition that had originated in the past few years. All four foreign language clubs brought dishes from their separate cultures. Club members Becky Grabber, Mark Shepherd, Kirk Browning, Kent Portman and julie Lawrence sample foods from France and Spain. German club members Gary Upton, Chris Savko, David Keglovits and Kevin Thompson attempt to build a fire for a weiner roast. The German Club, like many others, held a picnic at the beginning of the year to get acquainted. 80 The Involved Q of the many traditions set by the Keywanette the annual Autumn Harvest dunking booth is one the most popular at the camival. However, members jamie Hatcher, Peggy Gallant, Kathy Kruckmeyer find the November weather 'You oughta Get involved -a term often echoed by many students and teachers. But . . . get involved in what?-A club. There were more than 30 organizations, offering something for everyone. Clubs have been an important part of the school ever since it opened. Some have come and remained, a few have come and gone, and there were always new clubs beginning. Ones such as Future Homemakers of America, Future Business Leaders of America, American Field Service and National Honor Society began the first year Lamar opened and have remained active throughout the years. Organizations like choir, orchestra and band have not only been a part of the school for 10 years, but have also increased in size. One club which trippled in size since it's origin was the drill team. The Vi-Queens have grown from the original 11 members to the present 63. Some clubs, although they seemed to be popular, dwindled out, and then returned get involved only to leave once more. The Key Club and spirit groups were examples of this. During Lamar's first few years, the Key Club was a well-attended club. Then due to lack of attendance, the club became extinct. In 1978-79, the club was again revived, only to be discontinued in 1980. According to 1979 Key Club member Mitch Willis, there was no club this year because no one ever showed up for any of the meetings. The meetings were on Tuesday night, so I guess no one thought about going. However, new clubs were also begin- ning. The Camera Club began last year. Fellowship of Christian Athletes was also a club that began in 1978. Although it started out with a mere 20 members it has grown to be one of the largest clubs in school. Through the years, Lamar has seen many clubs come and go-and it remains to be seen what the future may hold. A select group, the Madrigals have been an active part of the choir ever since Lamar opened. The Choir Department consists of other groups such as the Varangians, the Ventures and the Venturas. The Involved 81 Signs show hours of work Being a cheerleader was not just fame and glory. There were many hard hours spent practicing, decorating and cheering. The cheerleaders and Thor, David Groves, went to a summer camp at Texas Christian University during july. They learned cheers and chants such as llLet Me See Ya Get Down and 'Vikings Want A Victory. Thor also practiced to perfect the stunts done with the cheerleaders. This was the first year that a Thor had attended a summer camp. The JV and Varsity cheerleaders were awarded a spirit stick. Also, the Varsity was one of five squads honored to try out for the Award of Excellency, picked by the National Cheerleader Association. Varsity member Tracie Tips was chosen as the All-American Cheerleader out of approximately 800 contestants. Tracie was one of 120 cheerleaders across the U.S. to receive this award. For this honor, she received a gold medallion and certificate. The Varsity squad also attended a double elimination competition at Hulen Mall and were picked first place winners.

To pay for these decorations, the cheerleaders sold ribbons to the student body, caramel apples and cookies at Autumn Harvest and mums during Homecoming week. There was not a head cheerleader for either the IV or Varsity squads. The girls each had a designated game to be head cheerleader, responsible for seeing that all posters were made, planning the pep rally and calling the yells on field for that particular game. During basketball season, the girls rotated cheering at each away game and all cheered at home games. David Groves, the mascot Thor, was chosen after attending the week long clinic held in the spring and trying out for his position. Previously the candidates had written a letter of recommendation and were interviewed by a board consisting of Ms. Jessie Horton, Mr. Eddy Peach, Principal Sam Curlee, Ms. Ann Stockton, Mr. Bob Copeland, a cheerleader, a Vi-Queen, the drum major and the Student Council president and vice president. flfk -ea-' 95357 Aflac ggi..

Sponsoring the first, now annual, blood drive highlighted the year for students in HOE. After awakening the student body and faculty to the problem of low supply of blood in area blood banks, the drive received a large response with more than 100 donors. Students in HOE, Health Occupations Education, held jobs ranging from dental assistants to pharmacy aides. Senior Tony Devia, who worked as an operating room assistant, described par- ticipation in HOE as a way to 'meet a lot of people. Scott Marlow added, 'Most kids take HOE to find out if they really want to go into a medical field. mv multi-' w-3 ix fm 4 .. Straightening the shelf, senior Kim Taylor works at Happiness Hallmark.

Does my hair look all right? i'Can l borrow your comb? 'lWhy can't they ever think to bring mirrors in here? How do they expect us to look decent for our pictures? Blinking lights which left traces of blue, yellow and orange dots before one's eyes were one of the symptoms of getting class pictures taken. Senior pictures began during the summer and continued with make-ups in Sep- tember. juniors and sophomores had their pictures taken at the beginning of the year for the annual and sophomores and new students had their pictures taken for Student Identification Cards. Getting pictures taken has been one of the roles of the students that has continued since the school opened in 1970. Many of the activities have been divided into the separate classes-seniors, juniors, and sophomores-and differ from year to year. When the school opened in 1970, students included only juniors, sophomores and freshmen. There was no Senior Class because most wanted to graduate from their original high school. The make-up of the school changed in 1975, as the freshmen became a part of the junior highs due to overcrowding. The individual classes spent most of the year earning funds. Raising money for the Senior Prom has been the main concern of the classes ever since their sophomore year. In most cases, they began as sophomores with nothing and ended with enough money to pay for their prom. The role of the student has basically remained the same for the past 10 years. What is the most obvious change in the students since the school opened? 'il think that over the past 10 years the biggest change in the students is in their morals. The kids' morals are either real strong or very weak. 'Overall, the students of today are more prepared due to mass media, the wider variety of subjects taught at school and the increased quality of the teachers, com- mented Mr. Charles Ritchey. Doing skits at the pep rallies has been a class favorite for the last decade. Portraying the Wizard of Oz, the cowardly lion and the tin man, students in 1971 rejoice in the death of the wicked witch of the west. With the exception of the first year the school opened when there were no seniors, at the . pep rallies, students have always sat in designated areas in the gym with their respective classes. mugs taken was one of the first of the juniors and sophomores. junior akel waits on the sta e in the auditorium to Y S his picture made. Pictures were taken during the classes. The Students 131 Activities fill seniors' Year Senior year officially started with yearbook portraits taken in August. This served as a reminder that the end of high school was near. School began on Sept. 4 and continued steadily until the Thanksgiving holidays, which provided a welcome relief from the monotony of school. Other events provided breaks in the same old routine. The Homecoming Hall contest was won by the seniors for the second year in a row. Also, money-making projects for the Prom provided something for the seniors to do. For some, it was a year that seemed to never end. For others, it was a year that they hoped would never end. For still others, it was just another year.

Making this money was accomplished in a variety of different ways. In spite of lack of participation, money was raised by working at Six Flags during the summer. Car washes, the old standby for raising money, contributed their portion. Decorating cars for the Arlington game provided fun but little cash to the tune of 510. The Senior Saloon at Autumn Harvest netted 5300. Work continued with the Valentine's Dance, traditionally held by the Senior Class. This year the dance was a week late due to the Student CounciI's Theme Week. The dance contributed 3250 to the treasury. During the Valentine?

College night was held in December at Sam Houston High School from 7 to 9 p.m. More than 100 schools from as far away as Vermont were represented at the seminar which was designed to provide students and parents with specific informa- tion about college. Students got some idea of which college would be right for them, how much it would cost and what kind of grades they would need to be admitted. The night also served as a reminder that high school was almost over. It was time to start making plans for after graduation. Stopping by the office between classes, Raquel Burleson signs up to see Ms. Margie Austin, her counselor. The counselors helped with schedule changes and provided information to seniors about scholarships and college possibilities.

Symptoms include unwilling- ness to attend school and lack of concem over grades. Cutting class and blowing off homework and tests became major problems for teachers and parents. However, most students were unconcemed as they knew ., af-Q. the only cure was graduation. We This disease hit its apparent peak on Senior Skip Day. On this day almost every ,senior succumbed to senioritis and took the day off. The only defense teachers had was giving zeroes to those affected. However this method of treatment proved unsuc- cessful. The disease continued to rage until May 27 when it miraculously disappeared!

This test was practically a must for anyone who hoped to enter college. A fee of S8 was required. Most students took the Saturday morning test at the University of Texas at Arlington, which meant either staying home the night before or suffering the con- sequences the next morning. Upon arrival at University Hall, students were told which classroom to report to. There, after showing proof positive identification, seats were assigned. From then on, it was four hours of filling in the bubbles followed with only two 10-minute breaks in between. After the test was finally over, most students went home in hopes of regaining the sleep they had lost that morning.

However, due to rising prices, the Class of 1980 faced even more obstacles before crossing the stage on May 27th. Inflation, the highest it had been since the end of World War ll, definitely took its toll on many seniors' pocketbooks. As gold prices skyrocketed, the cost of a class ring ranged from 5120 to 5250. One was considered lucky to have bought one during his sophomore or junior year. Most seniors felt that a luxurious car was mandatory for the prom, and many borrowed or rented such models as Cadillacs and Lincolns on April 12th. Another major expense was added to this, since gas prices shot over the dollar- a-gallon mark. Graduation announcements followed the trend and cost seniors 28 cents apiece, an increase of 2 cents. However, to curb this price increase, Star Engraving introduced several package plans. According to Mr. Bryan Matthews, Star Engraving representative, seniors spent an average of S44 on announcements, name cards, thank-you notes, and memory books. Renting caps and gowns for the last day also helped to jack up the price of graduating. Since Lamar rented a comparatively more expensive gown made of a breezewi material, seniors paid 58 for their commei cement attire. This included a tassle, tl only item the seniors were allowed ' keep. As prices rose in almost every categoi graduating took a large portion out of eve allowance and paycheck, if there was sud a thing. j Without some form of income, gradu: ing in style became a missit impractical. l Handing Mr. Weldon English her money, Zenal jenkins orders her cap and gown for graduationf The rental fee for the caps and gowns was 58. This was more than ordinary gowns because of the special breezeway material.

This was the second year in a row that the seniors won the traditional decorating contest. The theme for the hall took a look at past, present and future Homecomings. This was accomplished by painting pictures of couples in huge '50s style cars, showing couples enjoying present-day restaurants around the metroplex and predicting scenes of future Homecomings. The coveted Best Decorating title was announced at the Homecoming pep rally that morning by the Student Council, sponsor of the annual activities. Depicting I couple from previous years, a section of the senior hall decoration shows a Homecoming from years past.

Though unsanctioned, the day provided a chance to forget about school and head for the lake. While most seniors chose to visit Lake Grapevine or other area lakes, some decided to stay in town and make their own fun. Since some teachers scheduled tests to deter the holiday, others chose to stay at school and keep their grades up. No matter how the day was spent it provided a break to the year-end monotony of school. On Senior Skip Day, Mark Talbot, Chris Reese and Colyn Scott attend an empty classroom.

Ms. Linda Fry, one Sophomore Class sponsor, said as the Class of '82 arrived at Lamar eager to become part of the traditions of its new school. With more than 650 students, they were the largest class so far. Along with being the first year in high school, a sophomore's year was filled with many other firsts. These might include a first job Qprobably at a fast food joint like Del Tacol, the first Homecoming or a first car fand those first gas bills.J And for the first time, many seriously considered where they were going and what they wanted to do. Gathering with fellow Latin Club members at their first meeting, Roben Cline and Fred Glasser munch on their favorite super-style pizza at Pizza Inn. Latin Club was one of the many clubs and organizations open to sophomores. ,.,- N: , As Clint Eastwood and his orangutan CIyde, Kevin Perry and Randy Sargent campaign for Becky Brock at the Sophomore Class Council elections.

Warming up at the Lamar-Richland football game, sophomores fight the November cold. Despite their support the Vikings lost to the Rebels 25-9 in the next-to-the-last game of the season.

After filling out the inevitable forms, the student deposited his parent in the office and drove around to the back. There he picked up the officer, who fwould decide if he was competent enough to be released on the street alone. The test itself-composed of turns, stops and the dreaded parallel parking-took about 10-15 minutes. The big day was usually the day after his 16th birthday, unless he had been luckv enough to get a hardship license when he was 15. Back at the department, the student received his grade. To pass, he must have made a 70 or above. A lf he passed, his flimsy learner's permit was replaced with a flimsy driver's license. In four to sixs weeks, this was replaced by an official license, complete with a mug shott l lf he failed, he could either wait until the next day to try again or go to the DPS office in Hurst. Congregating between classes, driver's ed students wait for their driving coadies to retum. mn llllllllll lllllllllll llillllllll Bob Abbott I Kyle Agan Phil Agnew Penny Albano J April Allen Steven Alloy Amelia Alvarado Babs Ancelin David Anderson Donna Anderson 198 The Students 11 A - W T 'i'I'9f' 4 -'nv-at 1. 2 - 3- A jg, ' H i 'L ' rss, 2 5 'MY 4 f, 'W , lg Vg.. wir . ,.

'il'm always so busy and it goes quickly, said Geana Barnett. l have fun meeting new people. Allen Shearer explained, ul like it because a lot of my friends work here. Six Flags employed more than 2000 hosts and hostesses to deal with its daily average of 20,000 guests. Seasonal jobs at the park began with its opening on March 1 and will continue through until November 30, On the day of being hired, the new employee was issued his wardrobe. As was evident in the multitude of cowboy hats and boots, the new style in uniforms this year was western wear. The new employee also received his name tag, a bright yellow one. Until it was replaced two weeks later with a black tag, he had to bear the jokes and taunts about being a l'banana tag, a newcomer just learning the ropes. A job at the park, although it was a good work experience, tended to take away some of the magic of Six Flags, Dawn Lucas commented, When l was little, l'd get excited about going to Six Flags. 'Now that l work there, l never go out there just to ride the rides. if . i Waiting for her ride home, Dawn Lucas chats with Cindy Oyler. Employees were free to enjoy the attractions of the park when off work and were given one free pass for each member of their family. Employees at Six Flags, Qclockwisej Terri Ellis, Geana Barnett, Paui Cummins and Cindy Oyler earn extra spending money with a variety of jobs. Vffi Sophomores 201 It may not be Greyhound, but it'scheapor Thanks to the Arlington independent School District, students living more than two miles away from Lamar could ride the bus to school free. Of course they might not have appreciated getting up at 6 a.m. to meet the 7:15 run, only to an'ive an hour before classes started. Fortunately the cafeteria was always open to them before and after school hours. i The buses made 16 runs to and from school. One run was a handicap bus designed to transport studentslwho used wheelchairs or otl'iertphysicaljaids,,such as crutches. . However, of the 620 students eligible for bus transportation, only approximately 300 took advantage of the service. j d . g., Q si if 'il .Qt T . . .L sl..

While the temperature was still in the 30's, summer catalogs were mailed and new swimming suits hit the racks. Next came the few sunny, warm days among the wet, windy ones of February. After Easter on April 6, it was clear that the nice weather was here to stay, and spring fever reached epidemic proportions. The newest fads for preparing for summer were the tanning centers, like the American Tanning Saloon on Collins. For S35 for four months or only S1 a session, one could lie under the ultra-violet lights for up to 12 minutes. The result: a dark, even tan, rain or shine. The new season was also reflected in fashion. Although the wearing of shorts was against school policy, other summer wear, such as tropical print shirts, thongs and sundresses, were popular. Of course, as soon as the cool clothes came out of the closet, the temperature inside the ,,..-nv In a concessions booth at Ranger Stadium, Melissa Petty waits for customers during a game against the Detroit Tigers.

Away they go! Pouring from the classrooms, students raced to get a drink of water, deposit books in lockers, catch up on the latest gossip, sneak a quick snack, make weekend plans and maybe even have a few private moments with their boyfriends or girlfriends. Unfortunately it was practically impossi- ble to squeeze all this into five minutes imost students thought 10 would be more reasonablel. To walk from the gym to the new wing alone without all the side trips took about three-and-a-half minutes falthough at full speed, it could be done in twoj. Unless a student could quietly slip into his next class after the tardy bell, he would have to sign the ever present tardy sheet. lf a student was late too often, he might have his bottom flicks-ouchlj or his citizenship grade injured. A trip down the hall between classes was full of pitfalls. Of course there was the usual pushing On I typical school day, students fill the halls after sixth period.

Although the original 1200 students graduated years ago, 27 of the original faculty remain. As to why so many have stayed, Mr. Bob Copeland replied, ul love it. Lamar is the place to be. Since 1970 there have been numerous changes. Less homework was one example. Senior English teacher Ms. Geraldine Trostel explained, l'More students are working and they just don't have time for as much homework as classes in earlier years. Most teachers witnessed the biggest change in the students themselves. 'lThey have more mature attitudes and catch on faster than earlier classes commented Ms. Dixie Porcher, chemistry teacher. 'lThey are setting goals, studying harder and can take more responsibility, added Ms. Trostel. Vice Principal Ann Stockton noted a difference that most students appreciate. Since 1975, there are no longer ninth graders at Lamar.

Mr. lerry McCullough's life also seemed to center around school activities. He committed most of his time to teaching history, coaching track and sponsoring the r nb - ' ,aff good sports Fellowship of Christian Athletes. The time and effort of Mr. jones and Mr. McCullough was fully realized by their wives, who not only shared their private lives, but observed day-to-day problems firsthand. Ms. ludy jones, a math teacher at Lamar, explained the need for dedication. uCoaching is a full-time job. lt lasts seven days a week, sometimes later than 11 p. m. Homemaking teacher Ms. Becky McCul- lough further explained, l'Lamar is a very important part of Coach McCullough's life because he enjoys what his job holds for him and always tries to give 110 percent. Track Coach lerry McCullough also helps coach the Varsity football team. Coach McCullough attended Baylor University and in 1964 set a State 3A 100 yard dash record with a 9.6, Assistant football Coach Ronnie Helm discusses plays with Bill Low and other defensive line members.

Whether it was helping an absent student catch-up or advising a college- bound student on what courses to take, numerous teachers worked closely with their students, often forming special bonds. I am always willing to bring my lunch to the room to help a student who may be having difficulty, said Ms. Carolyn Brannen. The help that a student received from teachers was appreciated for years. Students often returned on Homecoming to visit past teachers. I'Decorated halls, no homework and a victorious football game are all expected. Sometimes the most unexpected event is the return of graduates that I haven't seen in years, said Ms. Darlene Alford. Homecoming was not the only time teachers had a chance to visit with graduates.

You can't find another school in Arlington with such a harmonic atmosphere, noticed Ms. Vicki Chauncey. Another teacher that commented on the student and teacher relationship was Ms. Patsy Williams. I'For the most part, the students as a whole, are fun to be around. Students seemed to feel as positive toward the teachers. 'One of my fondest memories of Lamar was the friendships that I made with my teachers, stated Susan Shank, '79 graduate. Teaching at Lamar could be summed up by Ms. Iudy Bowden. I like people.

Ms. lanice Crosby stated, 'Lamar is the best all-around school I have been in, and Ms. Leslie Davis readily agreed, adding, lil really like the school pride-the feeling that the teachers and students are trying to do the best they can. Ms. Constance Rogers exclaimed that there was a 'great motivational force for students to achieve mathematic competence.

Not only did this consume Wednesday morning Activity Periods but also many evenings in which meetings, parties and various other activities took place. Faculty members also fully supported Viking sports. Many teachers' nights were filled with tension as they closely watched football, basketball and volleyball games, tdepend- ing on the seasonl in anxious anticipation for the outcome. After home games and on special occasions, some of the lnight owl teachers chaperoned the school dances. Other devoted teachers spent numerous hours after school helping students practice for various things such as drama produc- tions, choir and band programs, and speech tournaments. However, contrary to popular belief, teachers too required rest and relaxation. Many could be found passing the time away in either of the workrooms during their free periods, Some did choose to spend their breaks preparing for their classes.

Vikes: Grow! Fi ht! Win! Could you imagine a Viking football team with a record of O and 10? Or not having a girls' basketball team, volleyball team, swim team or cross country team? Well, that's how it was in 1970, the first year Lamar opened. The football team began its first year with a record of 6 and 4, although they were playing in Class AA, and the team mostly consisted of sophomores. For the first three years there were three football teams, Varsity, B-team and a Freshman team. The Freshman team remained through 1975 when the ninth grade moved down to junior high. ln 1972 the class was changed to AAAA and the Varsity team record was 0 and 10. After this, the teams gradually improved when in 1977 they won seven games and only lost three, until 1978 with a record of 10 and 1 they captured the district and bi-district titles. In 1979 the football team had its first perfect season winning 10 and losing none. Girls' sports came into the picture in 1972 with girls' volleyball and basketball, The first could attend. girls' volleyball team finished with a record of 1 and 15 placing third in city. ln 1974, the first swim team appeared with only two members. ln 1975, the team increased to 18 members. An equipment shortage and a lack of school enthusiasm threatened the team's existence. The swimmers, however, were willing to make the necessary adjustments to compete. In 1979, the swim team won district. ln 1973, a soccer team was started. Mr. Fieser tfather of one of the players on the teami was the coach. The soccer team coached by Mr. l. C. Little has improved from a 1974 record of 0 and 13 to a district championship this year. The golf team originated in 1971 and in 1976 they were district champions. This was their first AAAA district title. All of the team sports including basketball, football, volleyball, track, swimming, cross country, tennis and golf have improved as a result of the student increase. iq?--- , K .N V The coats-and-ties of the football team at pep rallies is one of the traditions that has changed throughout the years.

Varsity Football 249 Vikes turn over district When the Vikes played Arlington High, it was more than a fight for the city championship. Both rival teams had their pride at stake. The fans turned out in masses. The Colts hired Crazy Ray and Lamar hired an airplane saying PDO IT AGAIN, VlKESl When the final gun sounded, it was Colts-13 Viking-10, but this game seemed to unify the school for the first time during the year. In the next three weeks Lamar rode a rollercoaster. Winning against the Elks on Homecoming night, they racked up 272 yards total offense in l'the best effort of the season. The next match was with district title winner, Richland. Even though turnovers were evident, the Vikes were in the game up until the fourth quarter. The final game against Sam Houston was a disappointment. l'We were a better team, said Coach Eddy Peach. 'lWe just didn't show it. The end of the season landed on a high note though, with Mitch Willis being voted on to the Texas' Sportswriters' All-State Team. Stressing a point, Coach Eddy Peach urges his players to give 100 percent. Coach Peach was 'athletic director and also has been head coach for the past ten years, Despite the lineman's efforts, senior Steve Masters cringes in a Colt's grasp: Masters was the leading rusher several times throughout the season and also received All-District honors. Looking for a receiver downfield, quarterback David Cunningham scrambles away from the Texan defense.

For the past three years the JV kept the district title, earning it five of the past seven years. The IV, however, ended this season with only one victory and nine losses. Although the record suggested a weak team, the scoreboard told a different story. Of the nine losses the B-team suffered, five were by seven points or less. Only two of the remaining four were by more than 11 points. The junior Varsity's only win was a 12 point victory over Burleson. ln that game, Shane Burden scored on a 92 yard touchdown run. loe Heikkinen also scored on a 35 yard touchdown pass from QB Keith Whitlock.

IV Football 253 Vikes end season 6-6 'A 20-10 record is good any way you look at it, stated Varsity Volleyball coach Ms. Becky Evans. 'We didn't meet our expectations in district play, but that was because the teams were so evenly matched. For example, in district action the Viking spikers defeated Sam Houston. The Texans beat Bowie, but the Vols beat LHS. Coach Evans cited injuries and erratic play as main factors in Lamar defeats. 'Injuries kept us from gelling early and one of our main problems was our inconsistency from game to game. There were bright spots during the season, such as winning two out of three tournaments entered. These included the Northlake Classic, in which senior Rhonda Lane and sophomore Lori Gerron were named to the All- Tournament team, and the Kimball Seniors Rhonda Lane and Lisa Hires jump for a block in the game against Haltom.

'She came along beautifully. lt was a pleasant surprise. Debbie Pierce, center spiker and team captain, transferred from Colorado during her junior year. Her consistency aided the team in its 20-10 record. 'Rhonda was an excellent team leader and competitor, but everyone contributed at some point, stated Coach Evans.

Through- out the whole season there were only three players on the entire squad who were not plagued with injuries. Because the team was such a young one with four sophomores, there was generally inexperience in the ranks. Basic skills were also a problem according to Coach Brown. ln perhaps the best showing of the season, the Varsity came in third in the DeSoto tournament, where Rhonda Lane received All-Tournament. Later Cynthia Williams and Amber Russell won second team All-City. All in all, next season should result in a better record than 2-10.

The good news was the Varsity soccer team swept the district champion- lship with a 14-0 record. The bad news was ,that was as far as they could go. l Soccer was not yet a UIL recognized lsport, that is, there was no bi-district, regional or state champions. 1 Though the Vikings had won the district championship, they could progress no further. This did not daunt the Vikings, however, for they conquered all their foes. Perhaps their most impressive wins came against Paschal High School in Fort Worth, whom they beat 14-1 and 6-0. Other pre-season wins came against Arlington Heights 5-0 and 3-0, and Western Hills 8-0 and 8-0. In district action, the closest game was the first one against Bowie which the Vikes won 1-0. With eight starters back, they soon hit their stride and defeated the rest of the city teams by at least two goals each time. The Vikes blanked the Arlington Colts each time, 2-0 and 2-0. l l I Other impressive statistics about the Viking varsity soccer team include the fact that the team was the only unbeaten, untied team in Arlington since soccer became an interschool competition. They also defeated the defending champions of district 7-AAAA, Arlington Heights and 6-AAAA Duncanville. However, the true test will come in the 1980-81 season, when soccer will be an official UIL sport. The Vikes will then have the chance to prove whether they really are the champs.

Those that provided this care, the unrecognized shadow of the Lamar Athletic Department were the Viking trainers. All of the trainers were assigned to football and had to attend every practice and game. After football season, each trainer was assigned a different sport, which he followed throughly and attended every workout and game. The trainers put in many extra hours of work besides the two hours during school. They attended various clinics to learn first aid techniques. The clinics were held at such universities as Baylor and UT Arlington. The trainers, a group dedicated to upholding Lamar athletics, deserved grati- tude and recognition, according to those who worked with them.

The one Varsity player mentioned was Tim Hall. To back him up will be golfers Andy Christensen, Gary Gray and joe Lea. Coach lones believes that next year his team will be tough as a boot, with seven or eight players who have had a lot of play experience. Next year will be a senior team for the most part, excluding junior-to-be jim Kelson who had the number one spot most of the year. Coach jones was also proud of his two girls, Laina Lewis and Mary Flynn who came in fourth and fifth in girls' district. He was quick to comment that those were two of the finest golfers around. Concenlrating on his swing, junior Mark Clark plays the back nine at Rolling Hills Country Club. Rolling Hills was the practice course for most of the team. As Scot!

The cost of senior rings has gone up considerably over the past years due to the rise in the price of gold. Money: It all 'ads' up Most all of the money that the clubs used did not come from dues, it came from the community. That's the way it has been ever since clubs began 10 years ago. Money-making projects were scheduled throughout the year to help raise money for various club expenses. The Senior Class had many projects to raise money for the prom. Ever since Lamar opened, with the exception of the first year when there was not a Senior Class, the seniors have had projects such as the traditional Valentine Dance, a booth at Autumn Harvest, car washes and paper drives. Autumn Harvest was one of the traditional ways of raising money for many of the organizations. For some clubs such as French and Spanish, it was their only money-making project for the year. Throughout the years, the clubs had new Chevy. different ways of attaining their money. The Scroll and Valhalla staffs depended on advertising to put out their publications, as both were self-supporting. The PTA sold stadium seats, T-shirts and baseball caps. The Keywanettes, in the past years have sold carnations on Valentine Day and the German Club worked inventory at Sanger Harris in order to raise money for their trip to Germany, The drill team raised the most money in order to pay for its trip to California. They sponsored a concert, a spaghetti dinner and sold sweat shirts, as well as solicited donations from various businesses. By doing this they made more than 520,000 Ms. Donna Allen, the bookkeeper stated: l'ln the past 10 years the amount of money I handle has tripled. The major reason for the increase in money is the number of students increasing. Selling annuals and selling ads to community businesses are the only money-making projects for the annual staff.

Your generation will probably need as much electricity as we're using these days- and perhaps more-for homemaking, jobs, education, health care and cleaning up the environment. At Texas Electric, we've developed long-range plans to meet future demands for electricity. Because of dwindling supplies of natural gas, we're in the process of changing the fuels we use to generate your electricity. Lignite coal now supplies more than 4070 of your electricity. In 1981, nuclear power will be added as a generating source. We're building plants that use these more abundant fuels and planning others for your future You can be sure ' 't we don't intend E Texas O' Q to leave your ctr IC ., ' generation with 'Ce K ' a generation gap.

He is just away With a cheery smile and a wave of the hand, MEMORY I cannot say, and l will not say I w He has wandered into an unkno n land And left us dreaming very fair lt needs must be, since he lingers there. And you-oh, you who the wildest yearn For an old-time step, and the glad return, Think of him faring on, as dear ln the love of There as the love of Here, Think of him still as the same, l say, He is not dead-he is just away. By james Whitcomb Riley. The 26 of April was a very sad day. God the Almighty took our good friend Robby away our hearts filled with pain, we cry and we cry and ask again and again God why Oh God why. His young life, was filled with hopes and dreams to the moon why did it have to end so very very soon. If someone needed help there was no question about we'd just call Robby he would always help out. So many times we were stuck our cars wouldn't run hey Robby take a look and see what could be done. Out came his famous shirt, this was a must on our mechanical wizard we always john Pope could trust. a dip in his mouth, a coors for a start. in a matter of minutes the engine was apart if something was major his father helped too in no time at all the car ran like new, To be the best mechanic was always his goal he was in it completely with his heart and his soul. Now we all know the meaning of this little word friend you certainly were one Robby to the very very end. And we all send our prayers to heaven above, may God bless you always with his ever lasting love. by Mark Stenner.

On Senior Skip Day, underclassmen make their way to class through unusually uncrowded halls. After second period, most seniors left school for nearby lakes or other outside activities. Speaking before the student body, AFS President leannie. Long introduces a foreign exchange student. The annual AFS Day has been held for the past ten years, and helped arouse student interest in the club and its activities. , 1 4 1 QM Qlgh . Keeping the experiments, The tenth student body to enter the halls of Lamar was confronted with both established traditions and new ideas. , The building certainly wasn't new, except for the west addition that was finished in the fall of 1978. Most of the faces weren't new, as 26 out of the first 56 faculty members returned. However, 16 f'rookies joined these, making 120 faculty members. Howdy Day fwas Vno more, but pep rallies, held in the gym at 8:15 every Friday morning during football season, still kept Viking spirit alive. The annual Homecoming had become an' expensiveisocial event-complete with new clothes, inums adorned with everyth- ing from streamers and glitter to cowbells and rabbitsf feet, and dinner in an expensive restaurant after the game, When Larnar's doors first opened, approximately 25 clubs and .organizations were founded. This number had increased to more than 30. Each club had its own set of traditions and accomplishments. The drill team won third place in the Large Teamiwith Tape Recorder compe- change means traditions tition at the National Contest. This seemed an accomplishment for a team that had only 11 members its first year. The foreign language clubs, originally a joint organization, have divided into four separate clubs: French, Latin, German and Spanish. The four traditionally reunited twice a year, for a winter dinnerfdance and an end-of-year picnic in Randol Mill Park. The Student Council continued to organize activities, both to provide entertainment for the student body and to raise money, which was used to benefit the school in some way. This year, the council sponsored a contest to create a design for the school flag, and then paid for the flag to be made using the drawing submitted by joe Creswell. The Sadie Hawkins dance was another popular tradition. Originally a hillbilly- oriented event complete with hay bales and overalls, it has evolved into a Senior Class sponsored girls-ask-guys dance that doubled as a semi-formal Valentine celebration. sf I' Dressed iii semi-formal attire, couples dance to the new wave sound at the annual Valentine Dance.
