It started when 1872 students and 121 faculty members convened at 1400 Lamar Drive. To this, a spirit of trying to achieve excellence was added, and the 1980-81 school year had begun. Before the year was over, it was evident that trying to excel was not restricted to one particular area. For example, the German Club for the first time hosted Novemberfest, a yearly competition for German students, seven students received semi-finalist ratings in the National Merit competition, and the swim team continued to win meets while training state competitors. A spirit of trying for the best was also found in such varied instances as when: the drill team earned a superior rating at the North Texas pageant and was invited to go to California for international competition, the administration gained funds to install a carpet and construct a new practice gym and elevator, the English Department sought to improve the curriculum. ln addition, the speech team continued to bring home ' trophies from tournaments and qualify members for state competition. Also, the National Honor Society boasted 114 members who were required to uphold a 10.0 grade point average and display involvement and leadership qualities. These varied accomplishments were caused by a spirit of trying to achieve the best as a variety of Vikings seemed to: Go for the Gold. l 2 E l Transforming long hours of practice into perfor- mance, Tom Hippman contributes to the halftime music provided by the marching band. The Pride of Lamar earned a ' 1' or superior rating at University lnterscholastic League competition. 2 The Opening K 1 , , 1 . 1 fl. FXS w, 'fl S. ,izgfftf ,X ,,. Z ,C iii, in MJ i ia ' .

Football games and pep rallies helped unite the school in a feeling of spirit and liWe're number one. Students dressed up at pep rallies in togas, thermal underwear, robes, cowboy hats, ties and other sillythings. Against cross-town rival Arlington High, there were food fights at McDonalds which was decorated by each school's cheerleaders. Some seniors marched through the halls and had their own pep rally in the courtyard. Autumn Harvest displayed the clubs' attempt to go for the gold to make their club better than it had to be. Of course there were numerous other moneymaking schemes for each grade level and club. Such items as magazines, cheese, 'film, spirit bandanas, Christmas ornaments, class T-shirts, key chains, Viking note pads, candles and even turkeys were l'auctioned off. The variety show, the Dinner Theater, and 6 Events 84 experiences 'Black Comedy provided the school with entertainment. There was always the opportunity to 'lremember the year. Class pictures were taken, senior rings were sold to sophomores to have them for theirjunior and senior years, senior announcements were ordered and yearbooks were distributed. Yet most everyone did want to remember the year as was shown by individuals and groups striving through activities to Go for the Gold in making Lamar better than to be.

Some deaths and heat strokes occurred due to the extreme heat and 42 consecutive days of 100 degrees. Instead of braving the heat, many people stayed inside or in close reach of a swimming pool. Although many students had nothing more to do than laze around pools, others spent the majority of their summer working. Numerous students found themselves working at Six Flags. Sharon Washburn, an employee of Six Flags said, The heat made working outside uncomfortable, especially with the long hours. Other jobs filled by students ranged from working in fast-food restaurants to grocery stores and department stores. Some students including Kathy Krucke- meyer, Charlotte Harrington and Mark Waterbury chose jobs as lifeguards at the Centre Tennis Club. Padre Island was a popular vacation spot, even though tourists were hampered by Hurricane Allen and the unrelenting heat. While some students chose to enjoy the coast of Texas, Thad Pittman, jimmy Hatcher and Ned Frederick chose the coast of than others jamaica. Ms. Wilma Smithson and her husband Allan were joined by Kelly Cooper and Diana Birge for a trip to Spain. Other trips included church retreats, summer camp and various workshops. What seemed to be the question of the summer was llWho shot l. R.? Because the actors went on strike the episode which revealed this information was postponed. Whether spending the hours surviving the Texas Heat Wave, or working, one more summer eventually had come and gone. :S 3 E During their stay in lamaica, jimmy Hatcher, Ned Frederick and Thad Pittman soak up some rays.

Student Council member Pam Huck- leberry, uhead honcho of the event, said, l'All in all, Autumn Harvest was very successful. However, greater participation by the clubs and more enthusiastic support by the students would have been a big asset. Some students, had a different opinion. According to Bitsy Bruton, 'lThey left the things out that make Autumn Harvest-like the car bash and the dunking booth. There was definitely too much food! A conflicting opinion came from Dawn Lucas, who thought llAutumn Harvest was pretty neat. The Tonight Show was definitely the highlight. The Tonight Show starred john Thorburn as johnny Carson, Mike Fowler as Ed McMahon and Mark Thigpen as Doc Sevrenson. Mark also did a skit in which he portrayed Mr. Rogers. Other acts included The Great Karnak, the Mighty Carson Art Players performing in an Air Band, a song by Laina Lewis and several commercials. That Autumn Harvest was not only attended by Lamar students was evident when Mr. Rogers asked 'lCan you say goldfish? and three-year-old Nathan? Buechlein replied loudly llGoldfish! The total income was more than 53000, with S506 of that coming from the baseball team's T-shirt sale, So, many clubs were in the money Discussing plans, several girls attempt to set up the Keywanette booth. Instead of the annual dunking booth, the club decided on a picture-taking booth. While setting up the Spanish Club booth, Susan Ponce and Joanne Pryor find that it's not all work and no play. The Spanish club made S159 with its sale of nachos and pralines.

The newness of seeing everyone and talking about what went on during the summer had worn off. There were plenty of activities to keep everyone busy. Seniors sold magazines from Oct. 8-15 to finance their prom, in which they made approximately 514,000 profit. Tryouts for the annual variety show, sponsored by the Choir Department were settle back open to the whole school. The senior panoramic picture was also taken in chilling 40 degree weather on Oct. 28. Students in government classes were involved in working with political campaigns. The tempo of the presidential campaign, especially with the long awaited Carter- Reagan debate picked up by the end of the month.

A new twist was added to pep rallies in which various clubs and faculty members performed skits.

Even though being with one's date was the biggest reason for coming to the game, people with dates in the band or drill team had to wait until third quarter to just sit and talk together. Crowned the 1980 Homecoming Queen, Tracie Tips escorted by Tom Lewis, was nominated by the Latin Club. The Royal Court was also composed of two sophomores, Gwen Snyder and Dannette Burt, and two juniors, Amber Russell and Lisa Durham. ,Jr i Q' t 1 ' Vi is, . -.I - X X - ill Q -1-J eil' x . 1 '. 1, l .v '7'- 1 , N , -5- M li sffllf' .

Homecoming is a nostalgic time for reunion, said Karen lensen. Cheryl Tyson said, I think Homecoming is probably the biggest event of the school year-besides graduation. U 'lIt's like having a dress-up day at a football game, said Avonda Row. However, this summed up the feelings of most of the guys: 'Homecoming is when you blow S50 to 5150 on a date. While many boys spent their life savings, the girls shared their feelings with Toni Rhodes who thought, 'Homecoming is fun, exciting and a great way to get flowers. Most people felt as Rene Ball did, Homecoming is great-if you have a date.

Relaxation, however, was soon forgotten when school resumed lan. 5, as semester exams reminded students as well as faculty of the reality of school. This was the first year since the 1974-75 school year to have semester exams. There were only two exam periods, contrary to taking exams three times a year under the old quarter system. Some students felt it unfair to have the exams one and a half weeks after the two week-long vacation as Valerie Sams stated ill thought exams should have been before Christmas, because you forget everything during the holidays. That was the only time for exams though, unless school started two weeks earlier in the summer. The highpoint or most memorable time of january and February seemed to be lan. 20. The day was a relief to the country as the 52 Americans were released after being held hostage by Iran for 444 days. Also, on this day Ronald Reagan was inaugurated as President. The drill team traveled to International Competition in California on Feb. 5-7, and placed fourth in two categories. Feb. 9-13 was Theme Week, sponsored by Student Council. One activity was 'Button your Lip Day in which girls could not talk to guys or the guy got her 'ibuttonf' Mark Shepherd was crowned Powder Puff King as he received 45 ubuttonsf' Seniors won the powder puff football game, defeating the juniors 14-8. On Friday the 13th, the Sadie Hawkins dance was sponsored by the Senior Class with Tommy Davis serving as disc jockey. Temperatures extremed from 12 degrees on Feb. 10, to 59 degrees on Feb. 11, to 81 degrees on Feb. 20. The varsity soccer team ended its season with a 31-0-1 record, district champs two years in a row. Overall, january and February proved to be months of ups and downs, mainly ups though! On Wednesday morning at the powder puff football pep rally, cheerleaders Chris Honegger, Kyle Rogers and Brett Cooper cheer for the seniors. Later, the cheerleaders also performed at the freezing cold game in the afternoon. Copy and layout by Debbie Helm 21 ..m v-cu OP- -fu EI D-c :I -12 MARCH!

The Annapolis Naval Academy had a show for some of the senior classes. A high point in the show was when senior Kim Wiman was called to do a few impromptu songs with the group. Also in March, llRoll with the Changes by REO Speedwagon, was chosen as the senior song, however, later, after re- examining the lyrics, the seniors decided to change songs. Due to a lack of response at the second election, a new senior song was never chosen. There was also an AFS assembly during which exchange students talked about their countries' traditions. A new xerox machine was purchased for the library. Mimeographed pages became obsolete as the copier produced ones that were much clearer, and used both the front and back of the paper. In addition, Walter Cronkite retired as CBS news anchorman and the price of stamps went from 15 to 18 cents. Many students also began working at Six Flags and Arlington Stadium. April began with the election of the Senior Class officers for next year. The Sam 1. Curlee Retirement Dinner was held on April 22 at Vandergriff Community Center where the community honored Mr. Curlee. One day, students experienced a six-minute blackout during which several classes were left sitting in total darkness with only the light of lighters to see, Students in biology used bunsen burners for light. On April 20, many senior students decided to take the day off from school. Keeping with tradition, many students went to Lake Grapevine, a nearby pool or to work. To add to the April activities, the government classes went to the District Courthouse in Fort Worth, the band and orchestra went on a trip to Corpus Christi, and John Thorburn was named next year's Thor. On the national level, the space shuttle Columbia was launched into orbit and became the first spaceship to land successfully on earth. This rounded-out a busy and Uhistory- making two months for most students. Portraying Principal Sam Curlee, Doug Hudson and Ms. Linda Denson perform a skit as part of a roast at the Sam l.

The final days of school came and went quickly, however. For most seniors May was the busiest month. In rapid succession, came the sale of the S4 prom tickets, the Awards Assembly with 73 scholarships announced, the prom, meetings, a week early ufinal final exams, Vespers, the first Senior Breakfast lfunded with the remaining prom moneyl, rehearsals, graduation and parties. Sophomores and juniors were also busy. Sophomores took orders for suntan lotion, but due to a truckers' strike, the lotion never arrived. Some students worked on research papers, projects and studied for exams. Clubs, too, were ending the year with banquets and parties. The foreign language picnic for all foreign language clubs was held at Randol Mill Park. The National Honor Society inducted 73 members. Also, the society traveled to the Fort Worth Zoo with the Veda Knox children. Drill team clinic was held the week before tryouts with 11 officers chosen. A final faculty dinner was held in honor of retiring Principal Sam Curlee on May 22. And, a group of teachers journeyed to Louisiana Downs when a race entitled i'Lamar Express was held in honor of Mr. Curlee. While May was the month many people waited for, it was the month that because of so many activities, passed the most rapidly. Copy and layout by Debbie Helm 25 Getting it As the prom grew nearer and nearer, seniors realized the many details needed to create such a ltBig Event. The Senior Class Council was in charge of the festivities. Meeting every other Wednesday, the group made plans for the big night. The first consideration was money. The magazines sale around Christmas time, however, solved the problem. The Senior Class made a 514,000 profit from the sales. ln addition, free prom tickets were given away to students who sold more than 12 tickets. Since the magazine sale was such a success, the class could afford to have its prom at th Hyatt Regency in Dallas on May 9. The next decision to be made was whether to have a band or a disc jockey at the prom. The class voted to have a band. In a second election, the Senior Class selected the group tlRockmaker. The closer the big night got, the more there was for students to do to prepare. all together There were tuxes to rent, dresses to buy and flowers to order. The class even voted on what would be served at the prom. On April 22 during Activity Period, a prom etiquette assembly was held to prepare seniors for their evening. Students were reminded how to get in and out of a car, which fork to use with what, and other proper ways to conduct themselves at such a formal occasion. In addition, different styles of tuxes, dresses and corsages were modeled by senior students at the assembly. The week of the prom, tickets were sold in the cafeteria for 54 a ticket. Seniors could also reserve tables for groups of five couples. Finally it was the ubig day. Tuxes and flowers were picked up. Girls kept their appointments at the salons and last-minute errands were run. A few hours before the prom, pre-prom parties were held, then everyone headed to Dallas for the big night they'd all been waiting for. Starting early, Amy Cloyd, Mary Bishop, Gloria Brady, and ludy Wangner relax at Amy's house the night before the prom.

After months of work and anticipation, the prom had finally arrived. Couples entered the Grand Ballroom dressed in their finest clothes. Many of the girls' dresses were off the shoulders with full skirts resembling southem belles. Several guys wore tuxes with tails to match the southern style. Dinner was served beginning with a tossed salad. This was followed by Breast of Capon, wild rice, brocolli with cheese sauce, rolls and coffee or tea. For dessert students had chocolate mousse. After dinner, the chandeliers overhead dimmed and the band, Rockmaker, began to play. While many students danced, others stood in line to have pictures made. After the pictures students could relax. Many guys took off their jackets and placed their dates' garters on their sleeves. When Rockmaker played the punk rock song Whip It, the dance floor became crowded as students jumped up and down or pogoed to the music. Although the prom officially ended at midnight, most students didn't stop there. There were several parties that went on all night long. Some parties were at students' homes. Some rented hotel rooms and had parties there. Many even had breakfasts. It was apparent that the prom was a great success, According to sponsor Ms. Lavinia Atchley, The success was a result of the enthusiasm of the students throughout the year. Sponsor Mr. Holmes Brannon felt that it was the best we've had in the 10 years he had been at Lamar. 28 Prom from the tllnplke, students could see the Hyatt Regency. Through magazines sales around Christmas time, seniors were able to afford reserving the Grand Balcom.

After meeting the parents, getting into his '79 Camaro, and trying to keep conversation up, funny things start occurring. The guy is now driving down the wrong side of Cooper, the girl's bra has just broken and soon the wondering begins if the first date is worth all the anxiety. Many people found that going out in groups was more fun on the first date than by themselves. For instance, groups of students often went to Pizza Hut on Fielder, sat around, talked and listened to music, Other couples found going out to special occasions together at school was exciting, such as Homecoming, school dances and the Senior Prom. 'After going out with that special guy for the first time, l'm on CLOUD 9, said Wendi Gales. Many guys were too shy to ask that special girl for a date, so they went with a group of friends to a popular place or party hoping that the 'dream girl would appear. So when that special girl just happened to show up and see this special guy, she'd think, l sure wish l could talk to him, he's so good lookin'!! Then they just happen to bump into each other. liOh hi, how are you? 'iFine Then when they got to know each other a little better and found that they had some things in common, the guy finally got the nerve to ask her out. She accepted with no hesitation-of course. Preparing for a big date, Lori Harmon puts the finishing touches on her face. Make-up seemed to be used now, more than ever by high school girls.

Running through the door, attacking the timeclock, they reported for duty, For three, four and five hours at restaurants, theaters and local stores, they punched cash registers, slaved over hot grills, day's work stocked shelves or bagged groceries. Though most places closed at 10 or 11 p.m., employees often stayed up to an hour later-cleaning the bathrooms, sweeping the floors, counting the money and preparing for the next day. Many times with no dinner, they then staggered home for a quick bite to eat and homework.

What was this extraordinary event? lt was uspirit on the loose, o-on the loose gathered in the gym to cheer the Vikes on to UV-I-C-T-O-R-Y! Some students, for instance sophomores, required a little time to get used to things. They got lots of help from the upperclassmen who encouraged them to overcome their shyness, chanting H1-2-3-4, what you sophomores waitin' for? Your mama? lt wasn't long before the sophomores caught on to things. Darla Driskell, a new student, expressed her first impression of the Viking spirit by admitting that Viking pep rallies were 'iso much more spirited than her other school's. Foreign exchange students also exper- ienced Viking pep rallies. One AFS student, Ligia Fu, felt that the pep rallies were exciting and a lot of fun. Typical of all the pep rallies was a contest to see which class was more spirited. Characteristic of these contests were chants such as llSenior Power with replies such as NU-G-L-Y, you ain't got no abili! You're ugly! There was also some action from the faculty section. Especially when the cheerleaders uttered the magic words: llLet me see ya' get down! Ms. Pat Flatt commented that pep rallies were lla means to exert energies. Various groups helped set the mood of the pep rallies. The cheerleaders along with Thor led the chants while the band kept the momentum going with songs such as 'iBud. The Vi-Queens also performed at every pep rally to songs such as uWipe Out and l'Dim All the Lights. In a new activity, each week one of the clubs would perform a skit. At one pep rally, Rootin' Tootin' from the Texas Rangers showed up to join the Viking pep. There were also weekly talks from Coach Eddy Peach discussing the situation for the game that night, and Coach Mike Pringle's stories about Arlington High. A common activity of the Senior Class was to run out on the gym floor and take the cheerleaders' megaphones. One junior, john Thorburn, stated that the Senior Class really got involved, and other classes should be more like them. The Alma Mater ended each pep rally followed by a race to the spirit line for the football players. The Fight Song accompanied the football players as they left the gym. lt was 8:55 and the gym was empty.

But when the going gets tough, it is a comfort to know you're not alone. There is someone there to help. Likewise, 'lViking spirit is a sense of unity, added Vonnie Williams. Another viewpoint was expressed by Denise Mann when she said: 'Lamar is not just football. Lamar's people are Lamar's spirit. The spirit was personified by individual achievement and team competition. Richard Jonas said i'Viking Spirit existed because the whole student body was involved. From a different perspective, Ms. Alice Petersen stated spirit was 'lpride in what the school stands for which is present by excellence in ALL areas.

Places like McDonald's, Del Taco, Wendy's and Pizza Hut were jammed with hungry high school students pushing and shoving to get to the counter to order. Businessmen and women waited impatiently for all of the kids to clear out. Some students even went to the drive-thru to order, then parked their cars and went inside to eat-thinking it was quicker that way. Sophomores were usually stranded at school because most couldn't drive. The lucky few that did go out either had already turned 16 and had their licenses plus a car or bummed a ride off a junior or a senior. Some students used their lunch period to make up tests or other assignments. A few who had been late to class one or two times too many were required to make-up tardies during this time. The McDonald's Student Discount Card and coupons from The Scroll helped out some students who had limited income. The rising price of gas which ranged from S1 to 51.25 a gallon and the higher price of going out where a hamburger cost anywhere from 55 cents to 52.50 didn't affect many as the thought of eating cafeteria food didn't appeal to most.

The goal of AFS is to promote international understanding, One way they did this was by sponsoring exchange students. Lamar students gained an insight into the countries of Sweden and Honduras by being in classes with and participating in outside activities with Annelie Andersson and Ligia Fu. Ms. Lynda Alexander, AFS sponsor, commented that No longer will people from Sweden and The Honduras be stereotyped because now we know people from those countries as individuals, and care what happens to them. AFS club assisted in the spreading of understanding in many ways. They held parties and sponsored AFS Day to help students meet Annelie, Ligia and other foreign students. At the first party of the year, members played games that brought them a little icloser' to one another. On the night before AFS Day, exchange students gained cultural experience when they learned how to Cotton-Eyed joe. Another way they helped was by providing transportation for exchange students. Melinda Havran, AFS president, took so many people from so many countries to so many events that her van became known as the international bus. Lamar's AFS chapter not only received students but it also sent some. Brett Watkins and Alyson Long were accepted for placement in a foreign family. Thus, AFS promoted understanding and caring for students of all nationalities. .E as a B E ta Leading the song, Ligia Fu plays guitar while Nikos Rigakis, Ferdanand Franze, Guy Suzan and Cindy Koepp sing along, Cindy returned to Lamar after spending a year attending school in Denmark.

Another word that described the German club was active. Besides the officers, 10 other committee chairpeople were chosen to help plan activities with sponsor Frau Rudi Buechlein. For many members, the year began in the summer working at Ranger Stadium to earn money. The first event that included new members was the picnic in September. Activities Listening to the presentation of another roast, members of the German Club wait for the punchline. Roasts often brought back embarrassing moments for the seniors.

The French Club got started with a breakfast in Ms. Darlene Alford's room, as its first activity, ln February, the club went ice skating with the other foreign clubs. The main event of the year for the French Club was a progressive dinner at Christmas time. Members traveled to different houses for each course of the meal. According to the club's president, Mark Waterbury, llThe progressive dinner was a lot of fun. Mark added that Noverall, the year was a fun one. A member, Stacie Cant, felt that the French Club was ua new and exciting experience because you have the opportuni- ty to make many new friends. The Latin Club began the year with its 45 members electing officers at a Pizza Inn dinner. The group's first public appearance was at the Richland pep rally, which carried out their purpose 'to promote interest in Latin. The club presented a skit dressed in togas and concluded by throwing shaving cream in each other's faces.

The club celebrated Christmas Latin-style at a USaturnalia toga party at Ms. Carolyn Brannen's house. Members brought Roman food such as lasagna, manicotti and circus maximus punch. After dinner, the group exchanged presents the way the Romans did by drawing numbers and trading gifts. ln February, the club went to Caruso's in Dallas, where waiters sang as the club's entertainment. ln March, several members of the Latin Club sponsored, by Ms. Brannen and her husband, went to Italy during spring break.

And how did they solve this roblem?-partially by collecting dues, anging from S2 to SS. l Also, organizations raised money by selling things like Val-o-grams by FHA, carnations lby the Keywanettes, stuffed animals by FBLA .and T-shirts. You were probably badgered by a German -Club member to buy gummy bears, by an Art Club member to buy Lamar scratch pads -lor by a sophomore to buy suntan lotion. Somebody from orchestra probably even tried to sell you cheese or Golden C coupon books. lust keep in mind that they weren't being bothersome, but were trying to help their club. Clubs earned some of their money at Autumn Harvest. At this event, each club tried to think of a booth that would attract the most customers and make the most money. Booths ranged from the Iunior lail to the OEA Dart Throw. So, if you were trying to save money, you shouldn't have brought it to Autumn Harvest. In addition, many organizations had other g l . E :r o to raise money. types of fund-raising activities: AFS sold friendship links, Tragos sold singing telegrams and the choirs presented concerts to raise money. And, it just wouldn't have seemed like spring if you didn't see signs for car washes by such groups as the band or the swim team on the hall walls. Because there were so many clubs with so many ways to raise money, you may have felt that they were all trying to make you go broke. But, in reality, they were only in search of cents in an attempt to rise from rags to riches.

At the Spring concert, celloists Kelly Graham and Pat Sutton play the William Tell Overture, better known as the theme from the Lone Ranger. The senior guys surprised the rest of the orchestra by wearing white tuxedoes. Then in the spring, both the orchestra and the band went to the Buccaneer Music Festival in Corpus Christi. There the orchestra received three superior ratings in concert and one in sight reading, As for concerts, there were two-the fall and spring concerts. At the spring concert, they played the same music that earned them ones in Corpus Christi.

Of course not the Andrew Sisters. The key word in this piece is big. The marching band which is composed of both the symphonic and the concert bands had approximately 130 members. The symphonic band had almost 70 participants while the concert band lhold on to your fermata folksl had more than 80 members. Mr. Steve Musser summed up the situation with his phrase , 'This is the biggest band we've had since we lost the ninth graders. Now that that number is over, let's note the quality of the bands. How do you know that they're on the line and not just a bit fluted around the edges? Big Band On a scale of 1 to 5, the marching band, accompanied by the flag and rifle corps, received a one at UIL. ln concert, the symphonic band was awarded an excellent rating. This performance was repeated by the concert band. Now that we've properly scored the numbers and achievements of the band, it makes us wonder. How do they do it? Well, 'bass-ing' my assumptions on their record of good ratings. I think that it is safe to say that Every Good Boy Does Hne, and that they did their best to FACE all new challenges.

On luly 4th, the girls participated in the annual parade that marched four miles through town in more than 100 degree weather. Also during the summer was the SMU workshop for cheerleaders. Because Thor Uames Cochrumi was not chosen until the beginning of school, he was not able to attend. Once school started in September, the really busy work began. During football season, each cheerleader was required to paint at least three posters a week, plus the two that the players ran through, with which to decorate the gym. Besides decorating the gym, cheerleaders also planned the whole pep rally, including raise spirit scheduling clubs to perform the skits. Then, of course, every Thursday and Friday nights were the games. After football, came basketball season. Until district play began, the girls divided so that only half of each squad cheered for the games. Even as most of the cheering seasons came to an end, the girls were still working. They decorated the cafeteria for the football banquet. Also, their artistic ability was tested when they painted football and basketball player statues for the seniors on each team. So, contrary to popular belief, being a cheerleader did not mean just a few cheers here and there during the sports seasons. IV cheerleaders are front row: Melanie Davis and Sandi Kokinda.

Conquering the 328 page monster Members of the staff walked into Room 'l 15 the first day of school with one purpose in mind-to conquer that 328 page monster. Sound easy? Guess again! Actually the staff started in August by attending the UTA lournalism Workshop and then went through a llhelpful' basics unit the first few weeks of school. Afterwards, the real work began on the 9 X I2 book, the only one of that size in Arlington Then armed with croppers, tri-paks, pictures and lots of creativity and liquid paper, staffers prepared to attack.

New innovations for the book included group shots of all organizations, photo credits on all pictures, and layout and copy credits for each page, 80 Valhalla pictures printed, copy written, more shot orders, more prints, more cutlines written and finally, everything was put together to be mailed to Henington Publishing Company. The staff always had something to do-coordinating class pictures, conducting Class Favorite elections, tabulating polls or putting together a program for the Awards Assembly. There were also outside activities such as the annual Christmas party, the Quill and Scroll banquet, with a party at Cindy McKaughan's house afterwards and the end-of-the-year picnic with the new staffers. Fortunately for the staffers land Ms. Skibell's blood pressurel, major deadline time rolled around only four times. After the third traumatic, hair-pulling, ulcer-causing, catas- trophic experience was over, a party was held during sixth period to celebrate.

Also, according to Ms. Susan Skibell, UUnlike past years, as a rule this group met their deadlines and acted in a professional manner in dealing with each other. Even with these new characteristics, many old traditions continued from previous years. The paper still came out every two weeks, stringbooks were still computed after each issue, and activities such as the annual Christmas party and end-of-the-year picnic were still held. To put the paper together, each staffe usually wrote two stories, designed layout: and pasted them up. Layouts were ther taken to the Printing Center in Fort Worth and came hot off the press to room 115 where papers were picked up by students during second period.

National Honor Society and Quill and Scroll members repeating a year? Ms. Alice Petersen, NHS co-sponsor, explained, PWe have the same two major activities every year, the Veda Knox Christmas party and the zoo trip in the spring. While Ms. Susan Skibell, Quill and Scroll sponsor said, UA lot of our activities are repeated year after year. Ms. Petersen went on to say that they try to keep the number of activities down because most NHS members are very active in other clubs and they are also very studious. NHS took care of business at meetings during Activity Period. Business consisted of repeat year planning events and turning in grade cards. Students also filled out applications for NHS Scholarships. Debbie Helm was chosen to represent Lamar on the national level. Scholarship recipients not only had to be good students but also had to have leadership ability and a history of service to the community. Quill and Scroll's major activities consisted of a banquet and two picnics. Ms. Rose Wright of KEGL radio was the speaker at the annual city-wide banquet. She spoke on broadcast journalism as a career. So, it was true: A-students once again did the familiar activities of parties and picnics, repeating what has been done before and will probably be done again. Checking on her charge, Amber Russell pushes a Veda Knox student in a stroller through the zoo.

Those aims seemed to be accomplished, as the Student Council encouraged widespread participation in all of their activities. Theme Week was a good example of this new philosophy. In past years, Theme Week was marked by tricycle relays and cornflake-eating contests, but this time it was a Sadie Hawkins week, with events like Button Day and Slave Day that everyone could participate in. We wanted to break away from tradition and set some precedents, have some new Standing around the campfire, Student Council members toast and eat marshmallows.

Lesser-recognized sports teams were one object of the Student Council's new ideas. They tried to encourage support for the teams, and they presented team members with cakes on the days of important games. New students also received attention. The Student Council had an orientation for these people, where they were encouraged to make friends and get involved in the many activities offered. A buddy system was set up for transfer students who came in during the year whereby Student Council members were paired with the new students to help them get acquainted with the school. In addition to putting new ideas into action 1 the Student Council kept up tradition by sponsoring Autumn Harvest and Homecom- ing. They also worked on the Distric I Convention, hosted by the four Arlington high schools. Lamar was in charge of pre-registration and some of the discussion groups. Being a member of the Student Counci was not all work and drudgery, however, as fun events were also planned. A dance was sponsored, a breakfast was held, and a hayride was offered to members who had attended a certain percentage of' meetings. 1 The goal for the year was participation, and judging from the activities and response, that goal was accomplished. john Hayes i R Fighting for the football, the seniors and juniors battle it out in the Powder Puff game.

You guessed it-Activity Period once a week. Sam Houston abolished itg Bowie had it only once a month, and Arlington had it twice a month. Why did we keep it? Simple. Although it was not without abuse-its detriments were outweighed by its benefits. The main drawback was first period tardies. This could be attributed to a couple of reasons. First, 25 extra minutes went by fast when you were sleeping and it was so tempting to hit the snooze alarm button one last time and roll back over for a few more minutes of sleep.

'lWithout Activity Period it would be very difficult to get things done because few members would attend the meetings, commented Melinda Havran, AFS president. Students took advantage of the free 25 minutes between 8:30 and 8:55 a.m. in various ways. Many used Activity Period as it was intended and attended meetings. Clubs, which met at 8:15 a.m. in classrooms alternated Wednesdays with Student Council which met at 8 a.m. in the J tY'iS.. ,?:a4J I -El'f's-fs library. Other students used the extra time to catch up on needed sleep or studies, while some spent it taking make-up tests or in lldetention hall.

The IV consisted of mostly juniors, while the B-team was mainly sophomores. According to Head Coach Mike Pringle, he noticed that the successful baseball programs in the state had B-teams. He said the B-team enabled players to play together longer and they helped all the players to play better as a team. IV finished with an overall record of 4-5-1. According to Coach G. W. Melton, the IV's most outstanding game was against Arlington High. The Vikes won, 4-3. Winning runs came at the bottom of the seventh inning. Irving McArthur was another success. The game was a double- header so the B-team played one game and IV played the other. Both teams won. The B-team ended the season with a 3-6 record. its first victory came against Burleson, where the score was 9-4.

Such an ad might have read: WANTED-FULL OR PART TIME STUDENTS. lf you are seeking a unique opportunity to invest in your future, look no farther. Lamar is the high school which offers the widest range of college preparatory electives and the only one to offer advanced levels in all foreign languages. This adds up to success, and we have the figures to prove it. More than 80 percent of our graduates enter college. ln addition, in case this sounds like all work and no play, consider these fringe benefits. There are field trips, skits, academic contests, tasting days and guest speakers among other events too numerous to mention. So if you want to learn while having fun, come join us and UGO for the Gold. Obviously, public schools did not wage advertising campaigns nor did they compete for students. However, Lamar did offer options and opportunities that were unique. This, combined with a proven record, was worth touting. For instance, there was such a wide range of electives offered that many students found it difficult to choose among them. Because of this, 128 people chose to take advantage of zero-hour in order to get in an extra class. Also, seniors were offered a wider range of English electives than any other school in the district. These included World Lit, Shakespeare, Developmental Reading, Grammar and Comp. and Practical 150 Knowledge 8 Know-how Writing. In fact, a varied curriculum was offered within each department. Many special interest classes were available. Among these were photography, drama, journalism, speech and homemaking. While this type of class frequently involved extra work, they were often eagerly looked forward to by those who opted for them. Everything totaled, Lamar came out a winner as the curriculum provided opportun- ities for students to 'lGo for the Gold as they pursued their academic interests. e 5 C fi' ri Portraying Charlie Chaplin, Monty Prewit gives a book report in American History class.

I know it's a school night but just blow off the ol' homework. Oh yeah, I forgot: you take honors classes. UWhat do you think we just study all the time? There's a bunch of stuff that most people don't even know about. Like in science, students in Chemistry Il gave lectures from research they'd done. ln Physics, they did experiments with gravity and worked with all the different forms of energy. Biology ll students dissected a fetal pig in a class that was based on a college level. Yeah well that's just science, math doesn't even have an honors system. Not for us. For the first year though, the sophomores had an Honors Algebra ll. And the kids who made it to Calculus had to have taken Algebra l, ll, geometry and trigonometry. Ms. Gertie Morris the Calculus teacher, gave her students a curve on their tests to supplement for the lack of grade points. Were there any electives in math? 'lSilly boy, of course. There was computer math. Lamar received a PET computer in November. Before November students used a terminal connected to a computer in Fort Worth. 'LKids like Chris Chaffin, who wanted to really excel could further their experience with computers by working on an independent study. I always thought that English was the only department even that had an honors system. Students even got extra grade points for taking honors English. HMS. Sherry Brannon, Sophomore Honors English teacher, once told me she originally thought that an honors system might create an elitest group, But, she changed her mind and found that it was a chance for student advancement and superior work. 'Michelle Lindsey said that Pthis system is beneficial to the students because it give them the opportunity to work ahea Are there any electives in English? Yeah. There's World Lit., Development Reading, Grammar and Comp., even Shakespeare class. I read some Shakespeare once. I didn like it too much of it. Who'd want to tak a course like that? l'Students who take that class didn't juf read Shakespeare. They learned about h, life and his works. Plus they learned abot Elizabethan prose and Shakespeare influence on modern drama. UHey, it's too late to go to the movie now, That's ok, at least I know what I'n going to take next year . . .

Four levels of Spanish, three of German nd two each of French and Latin were ffered. Included in these courses were I-depth studies of the history, culture and ritage of those countries. Each also boasted its own club and many outside ctivities. Spanish attracted the largest number of lreign language students.

I hear it spoken all the time. Those who chose to complete all four levels not only had a working knowledge of the language, but had studied virtually every Spanish-speaking country. Projects, tasting days, show-and-tell, field trips and skits were among activities designed to enlighten the student and to make the study of other cultures and their common language more interesting. German also attracted many students, which called for a second teacher, Ms. Bernice Reid. Lori Andrews chose it 'Ibecause I wanted to learn more more about the language and country of my ancestors. Like the Spanish students, they were also involved in projects, tasting days and skits. Second level students wrote letters in German to German-speaking countries for information and filmed original commercials and television programs. Among those who chose to study French, many stated that it was their pick because Ilit's the language of romance. They also studied comprehensively the culture and homeland of the French people and were involved in a variety of activities. For example, each student was required to create original Christmas and Valentine cards. Latin was chosen for a variety of reasons. Some students felt it would improve their understanding of other languages, including English. Others planned to pursue a medical career, a choice made easier by a knowledge of Latin. Lamar and Arlington High were the only schools in the AISD that offered Latin. Whatever the choice, many students developed a lasting interest in the language or languages they studied. Because of this, some even made college and career plans in one of the varied fields related to the study of languages. For these students, and all who enjoyed the study of a foreign language, a new understanding and awareness developed.

Records could have ten the ones the tracksters have broken er the years tremember the yellow posters ng in almost every room?j Records could ve been the records used to learn a wguage. Records were also the records of st events such as the ones history students Jdied . . . ln order to interest the history students, e classes played games concerning the torical records they studied, An example of this was Ms. Lynda xander's World War I games. The idea the games was not to go to war but find out how a war might begin. Ms. Alexanders second period class however decided an all out war was a good idea. They then made paper bombs and airplanes twhile the teacher was outb and bombed the invading countries. Records were also the ones the accounting classes worked on. These records were more than just records, they were debits, credits, transactions and posting. All of these were the basics for working on the accounting packets. These packets were actual business books for a company. Records were also the ones computers kept. Computers with memories were a part of Lamar. The PET computer had a cassette tape memory. Students could punch in a program from a tape. ' The yearbook was known as a way to record what happened at school. The yearbook, all 328 pages of it, was a memory book combined with pictures and stories. The newspaper, which came out every other Friday during second period was a more up-to-date account of what was going OD. The band also kept records of what was happening with them. At UIL competition the marching band received a film of its accomplishments. Other records? The recipes the homemaking classes used were records of their work. The data the science departments used in preparing labs were very specific records. The psychology classes listened to records to sooth their minds. And records were listened to in typing to give the students a beat. There were so many types of records they were hard to record . . .

Such were some early morning comments before O-hour classes. llAt first I didn't want to get up in the morning, but now l'm used to it so it doesn't bother me any more. Zero-hour is really more fun than I thought it would be, commented Ion Peterson. Although it did take a while for some students to get up in the mornings, they soon got into the swing of things. Some students took an O-hour class so that they could get out early to go to work or whatever they wished to dog but some took this class to get an extra period in. Others took the class so that they could graduate early. Four Uhour classes were offered to juniors and seniors: Developmen- tal Reading, American History, American Government and CVAE I. Ms, Pat Deere commented, 'IThis was my first year to teach an O-hour class. I was really dreading the absentees and tardies but my O-hour class turned out to be my best. Besides the choice of coming to school early, students also had the option of leaving early. juniors were required to take at least five classes before dismissal while seniors only had to go four. llCetting out early really helped me because I needed extra time so I could work, commented Doug Taylor. Another added variation in schedules resulted from the return of the semester system. Leaving the quarter system took a while for some students to get used to. l'Having two semesters instead of three quarters was a big shock, said D'Ana Kramer. Many students though it to be a disadvantage when semester finals came around. Instead of three chances to bring up their grades, they only had two. l'The idea of two tests scared me because if I didn't do good on the first one I would have to do excellent on the last test, commented Sandi Pipitone. 162 Schedules Zero-hour students arrive at school, the clock strikes E25 with only five more minutes to get to class.

Between episodes of the World at War series, Ms. Pat Deere's 0-hour class learns of World War II. Zero-hour classes were taken by students who wanted to get out early and also by students who needed an extra period in the day to be able to take all the electives they wanted. Copy and layout by Rod Powell 163 Moving beyond book When many students thought of classes, they usually thought of homework and teachers lecturing. But there was so much more. For example, guest speakers came to several different classes to enlighten students with a more personal tone. Government classes had an Arlington policeman come and speak on law and his own experiences in giving tickets and arresting people. Another activity for these classes was attending a federal court. Students in Home and Family Living also got a sample of this type of experience when they went to divorce court and got acquainted with the procedures of property settlement and child custody. The German Club traveled to Sprachfest for one Friday and Saturday. lim Herman and Gary Nordstrom both said that one of the more memorable events was watching l'Tin Drum in German. This movie won the Academy Award for best foreign film. Some senior English classes went to see the movie 'Tess instead of reading the From Channel 5, Mr. Bill Vance, the news director at the station, speaks to the government classes.

Most students did not enjoy this film because of its length and subject matter. Ms. Yleen George took some of her students to see l'Our Town by Thornton Wilder. The Camera Club also took a field trip. They journeyed to the Meisel Photo Plant in Dallas for an in-depth tour of their facilities. Even though, the Camera Club was not a class, many students who excelled in photography were invited to go along. Other field trips taken by students were: band and orchestra-to competition in Corpus Christi, Spanish classes-to UTA to see lose Greco and his wife Nana Lorca, renowned flamenco dancers, Child Development-to a local hospitalg Art-to Bronze Age Exhibit in Fort Worth. At sometime during the year, most students were included in the field trip and guest speaker privilege. Most felt that it was a worthwhile program which many people benefitted from.

Some classes got a little messy when it came right down to it. Shop students got greasy, homemaking students got dirty, art students got clay and paint all over themselves and drama students had stage make-up to deal with. These were just a few of the classes in which students got filthy while learning. 'lln biology, the experiments were pretty messy.

The sounds of drilling and hammering could be heard all the way down the hall. All Phot 170 Sounds The sound of silence You didn't need a clock to know when it was almost 3:25 p.m. on a typical Friday. Sounds such as books slamming shut, papers rustling and the final bell, signaled the end of school. Culminating with the last bell, sounds made up the movements of the daily routine. Sounds were also a big part of the teaching process. The drone of teachers lecturing was as common as essay tests in English, Though the sound of a roomful of students working on an essay test was not a very loud racket. ln fact, it had been said that you could hear a pin drop during one of those famous tests. The noises of electric typewriters clicking and buzzing, reverberated in the typing room and leaked out into the hallway. The commands each teacher gave to her students were as easily heard . . . 'a, s, d, f, Instructions were either listened to or tuned out. PE teachers blew their whistles trying to instill a little peace and quiet. The ROTC also had its fill of commands . . . uAbout face, forward march. On the other hand, the language classes had their share of sounds such as oral repetition. Most verbs were stressed by repeating each tense several times in a row. Not listening to announcements was a common pastime during second period. But, always having them in second period took time out of the usually busy homeroom period. To remedy this situation, announ- cements were moved to the end of third period in mid-March. This did not work because they often made third period run late. So the beginning of third period eventually became the official time for announcements. However, one of the most favorite sounds was that of the fire drill. These three short bells meant getting out of class and occasionally meant a fire. Listening to the bell ring, l0el Payne walks into class late. The bell system was one of the more common sounds at school, Copy and layout by Cassy Weyandt 171 t the local sweatshop Each student experienced-at one time or another-a certain set of symptoms which was common to all scholars. lt usually began with a slight tingling of the scalp, followed by a flushed face, moist palms and clammy clothing. In the more aggravating cases, the tiny beads of moisture Suddenly the eye filled with a hot, stinging fluid, causing temporary blindness and great physical discomfort. . . which had surfaced on the anxious person's forehead, collected to form a single glistening drop which slid slowly downward, following the path of least resistance. This tiny innocuous looking globule was the bane of many students' existence, for it had the ability to cause pain and destruction upon reaching its final resting place. Unfortunately, the student was usually too engrossed in his activity to notice what was happening until it was too late. Suddenly the eye filled with a hot, stinging fluid, causing temporary blindness and great physical discomfort, creating problems especially for the sports figure. However, this was not the worst that could happen. Often, the sphere came to settle on the tip of the nose where it lingered, E poised to plunge downward onto an important assignment. Almost everyone had the experience of watching with dismay while the dampness spread into an ever-widening circle, siphoning the ink into its circumference and causing disturbing little wrinkles in the paper. Obviously, this rarely happened unless the sheet was nearly completed or was of utmost importance. The diagnosis, of course, was sweating, and it certainly was not limited to those involved in strenuous physical activities, although those in sports, PE, drill team, cheerleading, ROTC and band did their share. In fact, sweat glands worked overtime as golfers agonized over hooks and slices, soccer players struggled to perfect their dribble and those involved in football prepared for their next opponent. All of the wet work paid off, however, because it culminated in outstanding records, including a district win for the soccer team. Other sweating experiences included semester tests, research papers, oral reports and speeches, homework and special projects. In addition, journalism students sweated over deadlines, while dramatists fought off last-minute jitters preceding their productions of Black Comedy and UA Dolls House. Speech, math and science teams also experienced some uneasiness, the most annoying being the moist palm syndrome which normally surfaced just prior to competition. Almost all driver's ec students perspired heavily over the though of parallel parking and biology students were equally thrown with the prospect oi dissecting frogs and fetal pigs. These same students became noticeably damp wher they realized that they needed one more The diagnosis, of course, was sweating. . . l order for their insect collection that was dui the following day.

Some liked 'em and some didn't, but without the many projects and special activities, classroom hours could have become very hum-drum. Furthermore, the consensus among students was that most of the educators' imaginative abilities were boundless, an opinion slightly exaggerated by the dissenters. llYa never know what they'll come up with next, complained one disgruntled student who wished to remain unidentified. The same person later admitted, however, that her statement was somewhat colored by the fact that she had two major projects due the same week she was queried. llThe projects and special activities are really a nice change of pace, she added. l'I just wish they didn't all come at once. l'To be fair, another student rebutted, 'lit would be very hard for teachers to coordinate these things for the benefit of the students. Actually, they present a great opportunity to raise your grades. But whether the student Iovedfhated, likedfdisliked or just didn't give a flip, these activities were an integral part of most studies. For example, Ms. Betty Fritz assigned her Spanish Il classes projects in the fall which were not finalized until May. The subject was Latin America and each student was required to do an in-depth report, keep a scrapbook and prepare a Latin American dish for tasting day. These same classes also wrote and acted in skits which were take-offs in Spanish on popular TV shows such as llGiIligan's Island, 'Dating Game and PM Magazine. Ms. Fritz filmed these for posterity. Most history and civics classes required at least one project or extra activity during the year. Among these were political cartoons and muckraker posters covering such subjects as pornography, alcoholism and world problems. Ms, Pat Deere's zero-hour class conducted interviews with World War Il veterans and presented these to the class. Included were an ex-fighter pilot and a retired Major General who participated in the Invasion C Normandy and the Liberation of Paris. Art classes were busy with a variety o creative projects. According to many of tht students in Ms. Sandra Midgett's commerciz art class, the most demanding of these wa the restaurant project each was required tc design right down to the storage space ii the kitchen and the carpeting on thi floors.

These familiar lines of Dolly Parton's Nine to Five delineated the way many sttudents felt as they started each school day. Although some could not understand how anything good could come from a day that began with getting up early in the morning most of the 600 seniors overcame senoritisis enough to reach their gold by graduating. They also strove for the best by earning more than 514,000 for their senior prom, which was held at the Hyatt Regency in Dallas, May 9. The 637 juniors reached their gold, by sellingjunior T-shirts, by sponsoring thelunior jail at Autumn Harvest and by adding S400 more by selling film. These activities helped them towards their prom in '82. Although the 604 sophomores still had two more years to go they worked hard to go for the gold . They featured a booth at Autumn Harvest where students could throw tennis balls at pictures of teachers. They also sponsored a T-shirt sale. Their gold was already accumulating for a successful senior prom in '83, Devoting their time to help young people of today and to help prepare students for a successful life were 121 faculty members. l've been here for two years and l enjoy Lamar and teaching Developmental Reading.

Copy and layout by Natalie Davis 185 flflfli lt has long been considered a fact that the essentials for survival in any situation are: nutritious food, warm clothing and protective shelter. After extensive research, one might come to the conclusion that the above llnecessi- ties are not at all essential for the members of the Class of '81 As a member of the senior society, one finds the only items needed for survival are keys, paper and foods. When one mentions keys and seniors, the first thing that comes to mind are fast cars and losing one's house keys at 2:30 in the morning, when curfew is 12 a.m. As a senior soon realizes, there are many more keys such as: the key to the biology quiz, the key to the heart of one's favorite person, and most importantly, the key to the future that every senior holds, A key element for survival as a member of the Class of '81 was paper. Paper was the magical ingredient of an essay which is due the first thing on Monday morning. Showing spirit, seniors Todd Taylor and Tom Lewis rock and bump to the chants as they lead in the Powder Puff pep rally. During the football game the guys were the cheerleaders and yelled for the senior girls to win as they did 14-8. c .C 186 Seniors ails if figs: fo Lis cz asnioz. Paper is also essential for decorating the neighborhood trees during the week of the Arlington High game. Paper comes in handy when decorating the school's hall walls to show spirit. Paper is needed to take notes. Paper also provides a chance to have one's name mentioned in it, giving something to look forward to on Friday mornings in second period. Perhaps the most important paper any senior has a need for is the one that being a senior is all about: the DIPLOMA. Nutritious food has always been con- sidered the most important need for the survival of man. As a senior, though, it is essential that one learns to survive without a bite of llgood food. Instead, one must learn to live on burritos, Big Macs and slurpees. The life of a senior just does not have enough time for steaks and potatoes. lt is hard enough to find time to eat. l'Oh thank heaven for 7-11. again, Fast food places serve another use besides an establishment of a good food diet. lt serves as a social center for the Senior Class. l'How 'bout a pizza after the game was the classic cry of a senior guy. When you have reached the point when you can not only survive, but live well, and still be able to function on a set of keys, paper and digestible food, then you can claim yourself as a member of the Senior Class of '81 As a member of this prestigious class, man's 'necessities may not be essential to survival. l Being a member of the Senior Class was an unique social status which allowed the essentials to be lost, if only for a year. Gaylon Ross, expressed his feelings on being a senior as it's 'lthe top of the world. Kyle Bower said, 'after three years of being an underclassman being a senior makes it all worthwhile. l'lt all adds up in the end, said senior Paul Lowke. ,Lg I 5 fl.. ,X , W.

For many seniors their school day ended at 11:30 or 12:30 p.m., and it was out into the working world. Homework was often forgotten because of the long hours spent cleaning up, washing dishes and sweeping floors. But thinking of that beautiful Trans-Am and that new swimsuit was enough to make them want to go to work. With minimum wage at 53.35, they were always hoping for a raise, but the money was quickly spent. Possibly S20to S75 went to senior pictures, S20 to 550 for announcements, prom tickets and much more expensive things that went along with being a senior. The hours were long but it seemed to make cents. 4t4.?l james Bell Ward Bendel Mike Berg jeff Bergt Frank Bianchini Melanie Birchett Betty Ann Bishop Mary Bishop Don Blakely Cindy Bodine Gary Bodine Diane Bodkin Charlotte Boggs Bo Boling Tracey Bonner l Copy and layout by Natalie Davis 189 Kenneth Boone lanet Booth Kyle Bower Gary Boyd Gloria Brady David Brewer Gloria Brickhouse Gary Briggs Lynne Brock lanneke Broekhuizen lodi Broom Brian Brothers Scott Brothers Cary Browder Madonna Brown Robert Brown Kirk Browning Susan Bryant Mark Bunch Lyric Burkhead Wendy Burnes Laura Burnett Lisa Burnett Mark Burnham Kay Butler Diana Byars Vince Cabano Jeanne Cacace Byron Campbell Doug Campbell 190 Seniors aining the seniors in the bleachers, football players gary Bauer and Ricky Powell add to the spirit of the lass.

Beginning with the first activity-working at Six Flags all the way through the last event, the senior breakfast. ln the spring before their senior year, Kristen Erickson was elected president, Laura Burnett, vice president, Mary Bishop, secretary and David Lloyd treasurer and plans were soon started. Twice during the summer, a group of approximately 25 seniors worked at Six Flags for a night. Other plans throughout the year included selling orange juice to the faculty and the magazine drive which grossed 535,000 and 514,000 profit for the Senior Class. Almost all seniors participated and were awarded prizes for their sales. The prom was held at the Hyatt Regency in the Reunion Ball Room. l'Rockmaker supplied the music.

The first practices for the powder puff football game were held before Theme Week arrived. The only thing the girls knew about football was they didn't want to work, sweat or break fingernails. They did want to make a touchdown, be the star of the game and win. Good Luck Coaches! The coaches had three practices to teach 60 girls what they had learned in several years. The big day started with a pep rally that the teams enjoyed more than the few spectators, who were present. With the temperature at a nippy 28 degrees, the players went on the battlefield with the few fans either in the pressbox or huddled together on the bleachers. Push 'em down, Pull 'em down, anyway to get them down.

These and other frustrating questions were faced by the 65 percent of the seniors who planned to go to college. To help the seniors make the decisions, College Night was held Dec. 1, at Sam Houston. This gave students the chance to find out about costs, rooming and admission requirements. Although the University of Texas at Austin and Texas ASM were popular choices, the University of Texas at Arlington got the majority of seniors. The hard choice made by seniors, regarding which college to attend left many students in the counselors office reading about different colleges.

Amid the yawns of those who had attended the 7:30 a.m. Senior Breakfast and the trickling in of latecomers, he gave instructions. The 566 seniors then took the stage and found seats with their name cards. A photographer, hired to take pictures of the graduates as they received their diplomas, explained his service to the class. Lamar was the first Arlington high school to use a professional photographer. As the seniors trotted one by one around the stage, the phrase that came to mind was 'the beginning of the end. The anxious crowd grew more and more restless. Finally it ended and extra tickets were passed out-usually limited to one per graduate. At 7:30 that evening the real thing began. Graduates arrived backstage where counselors and senior teachers pinned caps and collars on girls, Parents filled the audience, and dollars were loaned and hastily signed to give to Principal Sam Curlee, since this was his tenth-and-last graduating class. At 8 p.m., sponsors shushed the class and motioned for every one to sit down. Faces shone from pride and the heat as the curtains were pulled and applause was heard. The Alma Mater was sung by the choir, Valedictorian Cindy Poindexter and Salutatorian Melanie Murray delivered a combined speech and the class cheered as Superintendent Woodrow Counts thanked Mr. Curlee for his years of hard work for the school district. Finally, Mr. Curlee took the podium and advised the class to change their tassels from left to right-they were graduated. During the next hour and a half, each senior went through the ritual-standing by rows, going behind the screens backstage for a final check by Mr. Arthur Didriksen and several coaches, being pushed onstage by Ms. Linda Denson, pressing a dollar into Mr. Curlee's hand, grabbing the near-sacred diploma jacket, around the stage and sitting again. After parading offstage during the recessional, it was over. The new Lamar-exes hugged old teachers, friends and relatives before and after returning their caps and gowns to the Texas Hall basement so they could receive their actual diplomas. From then on, it was off to parties, dinner with relatives or some other celebrating of this milestone in life. 216 Graduation Mark Sitting in their designated row with the W's, Wiggins, Chris Williams, Cynthia Williams and Williams watch as their classmates graduate. awarding of diplomas to the 566 honorees lasted an hour and a half. 414 Q W 1 sf' I 339' ,,aff'f'i -.. 1-M I an I ii lohn Hayes E' S Posing, Karen Floyd attends a practice for Black Comedy.

Rodeos, cowboys, Flo's Yellow Rose and the stockyards: Fort Worth. Two contrasts and two opposites with Arlington in-between. The impossible combination? How could these two neighboring cities have gotten along? The City of the Future and the City of the Past seemed to get along fineg so fine that they were unofficially combined to form a metropolis referred to as the 'lMetroplex. Dallas was the hub of fashion, music, banking, finance and business while its sister was symbolic of the Old West. According to Texas Monthly, Fort Worth began to blossom during the beginning of the decade. Billy Bob's, the Tandy Center Hotel, the Bass Brother's City Center, were all part of the growth 'lfun-lovin' Cowtown experienced. But Fort Worth was more than mere growth. Like Dallas, Hit was a city where yesterday combined with tomorrow to create a romantic feeling, said David ludd. The urban renewal and the development going on had a direct affect on juniors. Revitalization of the stockyards brought Billy Bobfs, the world's largest honky-tonk. Opening in April with a huge celebration, Billy Bob's attracted thousands to concerts featuring big-name country musicians. Along with newly-opened Reunion Arena, the Tarrant County Convention Center brought the Doobies, Rush and Kenny Rogers. Some students took advantage of the sports opportunities that Dallas and Fort Worth offered. The hockey teams, the Dallas Tornado soccer team and, of course, the Dallas Cowboys. Asked their opinion of Dallas, juniors responded positively with a 75 percent favorable reaction to the city. 'lThere are many advantages of living near two big metropolitan cities, stated Denise Mann. Cindy Oyler probably summed it up, l'lt's great! Symbolizing a mixture of the Cowtown atmosphere and urban sophistication, Fort Worth is popularly thought of as a Window to the West. The tremendous growth of Fort Worth was responsible for bringing many juniors' families to this area. Copy and layout by Lee Mulcahy 221 Steve Carmichael Who cares?

Fred Glasser stated: At the present time l am finding it difficult to choose between Richard Nixon, Peggy Fleming, Nikita Kruschev and Annette Funichellof' Fred explained, l'All of these . . . have made lasting impressions upon our society.

However, questionnaires and polls provided the annual with a variety of facts. For example, a national poll showed that a moral uplift was occurring throughout the nation's youth in 1980. This poll showed that church and synagogue attendance of high schoolers had risen in 10 years from 70 to 86 percent. However, at Lamar, 68 percent of the juniors said they attended religious services regularly. Interestingly enough, both the Lamar poll and the national poll revealed that about 65 percent of the juniors believed that the freedoms enjoyed by 'lthe Media and the press have gone too far. ln a questionnaire distributed in Gctober the majority of juniors responded this way: YES NO X to the computer used in school transactions ................

Topics on these papers ranged from Esma Khashou's one on drug addiction to Annette Chaires' mafia to Shelia Collin's color psychology. Some topics were literary, others more interesting. Why were we assigned these? Ms. Alice Petersen explained that it taught the student to 'take many sources and assemble the material and come up with a central theme. On the other hand, some students stated that research papers llcan be busy work and that they 'lseemed worthless to those who are not going to college. Whatever the reason for 'the research paper experience this junior year memory will probably last a long time.

The library had a select number of magazines on microfiche which proved useful for juniors doing research papers. Leafing through a magazine, Lucas Nguyen researches his topic in a magazine.

Music was a part of most everybody's life. Whether buying a new car or home stereo, standing in line for concert tickets or purchasing an album, music often required much time and money. Turning the dial of a radio in the Metroplex, one found many different types of music on all kinds of stations. luniors' favorite radio station was the former Z97 which later changed to EM97 and then to the New Eagle 97. Running neck and neck in the poll results for second were KVIL which mostly girls listened to and O102. These were followed by KZEW, KSCS, Thi? T le KPLX and KNUS. When asked their favorite type of music, juniors responded most often with popular rock tTop 40j. Country and hard rock were second. Who were the most popular singers and groups of 198G81? ln an annual poll, juniors answered the question by selecting their favorite musicians out of seven categories. ln the first category, the Eagles won by outpolling Cheap Trick, Fleetwood Mac, Boston, journey, Pink Floyd and others. Their popular 1980 album, 'lThe Eagles: Live , was not received too well by the critics, Nevertheless, the Eagles picked up a Grammy for their single 'Heartache Tonight. Whipping everyone in the second group, Donna Summer received 72 percent of the vote which was the largest victory margin in the entire poll. Donna also picked up a Grammy for Best Rock Song by a female. Her 1980 album, The Wanderer was picked by 'Newsweeku and 'Time along with Pink Eloyd's l'The Wall and Pete Townshend's 'Empty Class as best albums of 1980. l'Time stated that 'Donna Summer had ridden out disco, and . . . 'The Wanderer demonstrates that she's got the best shot at being the premier woman rocker of the '8Os. luniors picked Kenny Rogers just barely over Willie Nelson and Rush. ltLady was a popular song off Rogers' l'Crestest Hits album. Some students purchased tickets to see Kenny at Reunion Arena. Receiving a huge 44 percent of the vote, Anne Murray smashed everyone in her group ll except Diana Ross. Furthermore, johnny Lee edged out ELO, Kim Carns, Linda Ronstadt and Pete Townshend in the fifth category. Tying in the sixth group were the Charlie Daniels Band and Pat Benatar. Lastly, juniors picked Queen in the final group. Queen's llAnother One Bites the Dust became an unofficial theme song for Lamar during football season. The annual poll did not represent all of the popular groups and singers, For instance, Styx, REO Speedwagon, Lover Boy and john Lennon were not included in the poll. Music meant a lot of things to a lot of people. However, all these feelings can be summed up by the title of a popular 1981 song by a Dallas-based group: llDon't Stop the Music. wiv' .-tary,--nf' rt, 'Q ,.,-.--I f 'A PANNE MURYQ Sitting in her Mustang, Esma Khashou turns up the radio in her car.

Outdoor sports became even more popular as summer neared. Signaling the coming of spring, Six Flags reopened for the new season March 6. The amusement park was a popular place for entertainment and also was a big employer of many juniors. t tg M i I -'Sli Within one week, the hybernating winter plants and trees burst into life becoming a bountiful green. Young daffodils and tulips pushed open the earth to bring about their lovely blooms. As the weather became warm and sunny, the students became restless. When classes drastically dropped in attendance on sunny afternoons, teachers realized that SPRING FEVER had hit Lamar in epidemic proportions affecting even the 'brainsf' Popular indoor hangouts during the winter were replaced by the lake and the park. Frisbee-throwing, sun-tanning, swimming, sailing and water-skiing took hold in the spring. This was the first year Spring Break was not coordinated with Easter. One student said, tilt was dumb not to have it on Easter. Vonnie Williams stated, 'lSpring Break was too early this year. 'lt was still cold and not warm enough to go to the coast, explained Kathy Kuhlman. The Winter of '81 was not harsh and cold, but was characterized by 60 degree temperatures and no snow. Likewise, the spring that followed was early and unusually warm. Consequently, many classes met out in the courtyard while others planned field trips. As the weather rose above 90 degrees and spring gave way, some students looked forward to an exciting summer vacation packed with activities. Others anticipated, 'lOne more and then l'm finished with high school.

The first day of school was hectic for everybody, but for the new sophomores it was a terrifying experience. The confusion of trying to find classes and trying to get through the heavily congested halls was not easy, to say the least. Even with a map at each intersection, many had trouble finding the right classroom. To the sophomores, all the halls looked the same-crowded. lt was not unusual to see a student straggling into class 15 minutes after the tardy bell. In each class there were the gropes for chairs and the tedious chore of putting your name, address, etc. on an index card. Toward the end of class, after making a good impression on the teacher, students became more relaxed. They caught up on the latest gossip, talked of vacations and renewed old acquaintances. The bell rang. The students were back in the flow of the traffic, Pushing, shoving, sometimes getting nowhere. Most flowing with the slow traffic and frequently missing a turn.

Driver Education consisted of three phases-classroom, simulator and in-car. V Although 32 hours of classroom, 12 hours pf simulator and 3 hours of actual driving Qvere required by the state, Lamar provided 48 hours of classroom, T7 hours of simulator and 4 hours of on-the-road experience. This was due to the change from quarter system to semester. After finishing Drivers Ed, students were qualified to take the driver's test. The big day usually came the day immediately after your 16th birthday unless you had already obtained a hardship license. The test was composed of turns, stops and parallel parking, A score of 70 or above was required to pass. If you failed, you could always try, try again. FT 33llW uoqm is..

These instructions to open a locker sounded easy enough but many students found it a hassle to try to open their lockers. Sometimes it took as many as three tries to get a locker open. One of the most frequent excuses for being late to class became, l'My locker got stuck. Lockers not only provided students with an excuse to be late to class but it also provided a place to keep theirjunk. lt served as a closet away from home. A locker could characterize a person's personality. For example: A person who was lazy and unorganized would have a locker that when opened, all the books and papers would fall out. A person who was neat and meticulous would keep a locker organized. An imaginative or creative person would often decorate a locker with posters and stick-on magnets. Lockers also acted as a rendezvous where friends met between classes and after school. At the beginning of PE class, students change into their gym suits. A small square locker was issued to each student to keep their gym suits in. In the girls athletics locker room, Kristine Spence gets her tennis shoes from her locker.

Whether it was going back up to church on Sunday night for a puppet team practice or getting together at the synagogue in Fort Worth for a potluck dinner, youths participated in church-related activities. These activities varied from singing in the church choir to being a big brother to an orphan. Though some students were involved in youth groups for the religious aspect, others enjoyed it for the fun and fellowship.

Yes! lt's AlSD to the rescue: saving poor stranded students and taking them to and from school. The Arlington Independent School District Bus System operated whether rain, sleet or snow. ln cold freezing winter or in hot blazing spring, the AISD safely got students to their Some students did not think AISD was a hero. They complained that the runs were too early. 'And it's never there when l am. 'lAIso, the rides are bumpy and you can't bring food on the bus. Buses picked students up as early as 7:15 am., often depositing them to the cafeteria to wait for classes to start at 8:30. Afternoon buses either required that students rush to meet a 3:30 departure or hang around until 4 p,m. Maybe the AISD buses were not Greyhound, but as one philosopher said, 'tbeggers can't be choosersf' destiny. -wav Nancy Moore William Moore Mike Morabito D'arci Morgan Monica Morgan Kris Moritz Lynn Morris Stacey Morris Tim Morris Pam Moseley julie Mote Eric Murphree Kelly Myers Steven Myers Mounir Najjar 262 Sophomores Sitting around the ole oak tree, students anticipate the arrival of their bus to take them home. Many students had to wait as long as 45 minutes after school before the bus came. In the mornings, bus students who arrived early often waited in the cafeteria before their first period classes started. This typical AISD school bus was the only transportation to and from school for some students. lt was adequately equipped with 24 seats which comfortably sat two to each seat. The big yellow buses were always ready to bus the students no matter what the weather was like.

This rating system was based on the scale of 1 to IO, with 1 being the lowest score and 10 being the highest. Though all students used the same scale, they each had different ideas of how a 'IO' should look. I think a 'IO' should be about 5f4'l weighing 115 lb. with brown or blue eyes. She should be a brunette with a good tan and small feet. She should also have a good personality, good humor, is honest, considerate and should come from a good family, said Dan Withers. Ignacio Mendez described his '1O' as being, 5'6 , brown hair, brown eyes, weighing 115 lb. with a nice tan, good features, good personality and honest. I like my men tall, dark and handsome, said Carmen Garcia. Vonne Clinkscales lists the qualities of her '1O': 6'3 , dark brown hair, brown eyes, nicely built, preferably Italian or French. A 'IO' should be 5'11 with dark brown hair and blue smiling eyes. He should have broad muscular shoulders, straight teeth and a great tan. He should not be a slob and no beard, said Anne Armstong. Though physical appearance was what started many relationships, students com- mented that personality was what made the relationships last. lohn Hayes Chuck Pointer Gerald Points Posing in front of the magazine rack, Dannette Burt gets her picture taken for Homecoming Princess.

Other popular names were Scott, Steve, jeff and lim. Kim, Karen, Lisa and Donna were among the most common girls' names. First names were not the only way of identifying people. Last names were often used by coaches instead. The most common last name was Smith followed by Brown, Williams and Clark.

Sometimes it was followed by a game in which the students participated. The meeting ended after Ken's message of the Gospel. After the meeting refresh- ments were served. Besides the weekly meetings, there were many other activities. Some included a hayride, putt-putt night, a costume party and summer camp. These activities were featured at a monthly meeting of all Arlington groups. So then on Tuesdays, the exchange of dialogue was: liDid you go to Young Life last night? 'lYeah. 'How was it?

To insure a successful outcome to this traditional occasion, the teachers along with students became involved in the week-long preparations. The Homecoming pep rally skit presented by the faculty not only gave everyone a good laugh but attempted to fire up the football team a few more notches. lt featured various teachers dressed as Viking players and shooting elks as they grazed on bushes and trees . . . also played by teachers! To show their loyalty many of the teachers still continued to wear Viking faculty T-shirts, but a more popular means of dress was the blue or gold oxford shirt. Homecoming pins and ribbons sold by the cheerleaders adorned many faculty members' clothing throughout the week. Spirit chains were once again sold during second period in a competition between homerooms, Teachers could be seen dodging the links as they taught class.

Although, some teachers like Ms. Linda Fry said she never heard excuses because all her students were perfect. Most teachers, however, had to listen to one excuse right after another. A few teachers had examples of favorite excuses. Ms. Lynda Alexander mentioned her tavorite for no homework: One boy and his friend were driving down the street while he was reading his paper. The wind caught the paper and blew it onto the grill of another car. He tried to get it back but couldn't, PE teachers had an uncommon problem. Their excuses ran from the usual to the unique. Not participating because of injuries was nothing out of the ordinary for these Keeping an eye out, Ms. Carolyn Brannen sits as a hall monitor.

Not suiting out because a mother didn't wash was also a daily excuse. Typing instructors were subject to varied excuses. Not being able to take the typewriters home, students were forced to fabricate any excuse for not completing assignments. Although commonly not belived, many papers were eaten by younger brothers or sisters. In addition, family pets seemed to destroy a great quantity of homework. Also, memory loss was a commonplace excuse. On the other hand, some students were more ingenious with their reasons of failure. Perhaps making life interesting with elaborate excuses was not the favorite activity, but long excuses were a good way to pass class time. After all, what would a teacher's day be without excuses?

Of the nine teacher-parent combinations, all expressed a delight in having a son or daughter at the same school. Ms. Marge Wilhelm enjoyed sharing a locker with her daughter Sherry because she got to see her more often. However with her son, it was a different story. l'l'm not supposed to acknowledge Scott in the halls. lust a Thi' will do. Most of these students also liked having a parent at school. Senior Debbie Helm, daughter of Coach Ronnie Helm, stated that having her father here 'lmakes Lamar a more special place. Enjoying a bite to eat, Kara English, daughter of Mr. Weldon English, smiles during the Exes' Reception. Teachers' children were seen quite often at late night functions, Conducting an FCA meeting, Coach Ierry McCullough talks about upcoming officer elections. Ms. Becky McCullough frequently helped at these meetings. The McCulloughs were one of three couples who taught at Lamar. ... ,. ..vN'vu.

Also, besides Ms. Wilhelm, two other teachers had two children here. Ms. Shirley Wood and daughter Bliss and son Mike, and Ms. Marilyn Critzer and daughter Michelle and son Steve. In addition to l'Hi Mom or Dad! you might also have heard an occasional l'Hi Sis. Ms. Nancy Erikson, a '76 Lamar graduate who came back to teach PE, had a sister, Kristen, who was a senior. And if you overheard one teacher asking another 'lWhat's for dinner? it was probably one of the three married couples who had the unusual arrangement of working together. Ms. Judy lones said that during school hours she rarely saw her husband, Coach Elvin lones, but that it was an advantage to have been able to reach him in a hurry. She felt the only disadvantage to teaching in the same school was that it seems to make your interests more narrow than if each partner had a different vocation. Both the loneses taught math and Coach jones also led the golf team. Other couples were Becky and jerry McCullough and Sherry and Holmes Brannon. Ms. McCullough taught homemaking, and her husband was a coach and history teacher while the Brannons both taught English. So for 13 families that together consisted of 29 members, school was without doubt a Ufamily affair . During a lecture, Ms. Kathy Musgrove assumes a comfortable position. Ms. Musgrove said that she never saw her daughter lulie except when she needed money.

All the gold in California was needed to afford the cost of school. To help lower the cost of the annual and give the newspaper to 1900 students at no cost, a business staff was necessary. Go for the Gold! Through Star Engraving, the student body of Lamar gave the gold for the gold and silver class rings. Senior portraits, announcements, and cap and gowns were additional expenses, Go for the Gold! Various sports and clubs could be found selling smoked turkeys, Christmas ornaments, Viking cups or mugs and those never ending T-shirts. Money came rolling into the school from the students' and teachers' pockets. Go for the Gold! Athletics also put a drain on the money supply. A football ticket was purchased for 51.50 in advance and S3 at the gate. Basketball was the best buy at 50 284 Investments 8: Index cents for a student ticket, but the catch was the cokes that came in a plastic cup for 75 cents. Go for the Gold! The Vi-Queens and their quest to raise money continued. Students were often badgered to buy various souvenirs of the school year to finance a trip to California for 523,000 A All the Gold in California . . . was in a bank in the middle of downtown Arlington in Lamar High School's name.

We hold your colors Blue and Gold On high for all to see. Fight! Fight! Fight on, oh, Vikings, brave and bold. Your honor will be told. Forever more, we sing to thee, Oh, Navy Blue and Gold! LAMAR ALMA MATER Lamar High School, we love you, Your light shines ever true, lt shows the way to follow Great gold and navy blue. We pledge our faith forever, Our Vikings fail us never, Lamar, Our Alma Mater, Forever more. Although the most popular song was voted by the student body to be Another One Bites the Dust, at pep rallies the Alma Mater and the Fight Song were the most popular. Trying to find one's parents in the audience was one way students bided their time while waiting for their turn. When signaled by their designated teacher, each row took a clockwise circuit around the stage. This included getting checked by Mr. Arthur Didriksen and being given the okay to start crossing the stage by Ms. Linda Denson. Copy and layout by Cindy McKaughan 323 Speaking at a pep rally, Principal Sam Curlee raises spirit in 1980 and 1970. Besides his blue and gold tie and a jacket with the Viking emblem on it, he was also famous for the T-shirt that he wore at every pep rally against Arlington High that said on the back Happiness is to beat Colts and on the front 'Lamar No. 1 My blood runs blue and gold. 1.8 'S V, Twenty-six of the original 56 faculty members worked with Mr. Sam Curlee all the 11 years since Lamar's opening. They are front row: Ms. lanie Yates, Ms. lessie Horton, Ms, Dixie Porcher, Ms. Ouida Capps and Ms. Connie Echart.

This man's familiar face seems thoughtful. This is understandable of a man who is watching his days as the only principal of Lamar rapidly come to a close. Perhaps he is thinking of the dollar bills individually given to him as each senior shook his hand while being presented a diploma jacket. Later he would spend six hours unfolding, unrolling and straightening out the dollar bills and reading the messages written on them. l'The seniors will never know how much it meant to me. It's not the money but the thoughts behind it and how together the seniors were that meant a lot to them and a lot more to me. Or perhaps he is thinking of the standing ovation that he received from the Class of '81 and their parents as they applauded a man who had touched their lives. Whatever his reflections at that moment, in the future his thoughts would run back to this graduation and classify it as his fondest memory of his last year at Lamar. As evidenced by the plaques, honorable memberships, dinners and gifts given to him, this man touched many people. l . Longtime good friends, Mr. Bryan Matthews and Mr. Sam Curlee supervise the passing out of caps and gowns. An ever present figure at even routine chores, Mr. Curlee brought stability and security to a school that started with a lack of both. Digging in, Mr. Sam Curlee and Ms. Linda Denson try the salad at the prom. Mr. Curlee thought the prom was excellent The students conducted themselves as well if not better than other years. k. 11 year iking tradition One way was through his presence. At pep rallies, he could be heard raising spirit through shouting llWhat's the good word? Answering, students and faculty would fervently yell back Beat the Colts! or whomever they were playing. Also he was commonly seen passing through the halls talking to a student, teacher or administrator. By keeping in contact with those whom he led, he was able to put emphasis where it needed to be for the good of the student and made the teachers' job easier. This communication enabled him to write to the faculty i'We have shared the best and at times the worst of life-but the thing that is most important is that we have shared it. His physical nature has not been the only thing to touch the lives of those in contact with him. His personality and philosophy have also been important. According to the Proclamation of Sam Curlee Day signed by Mayor S. I. Stovall, he has 'encouraged the creation and the implementation by his teachers of fresh, innovative courses of direct benefit to the students. He has also encouraged lifaculty participation in planning, decision-making and ensuing quality education through his wise administration and inspiration. Mike Lawhon Q0 Signifying the sentiments of most at a football pep rally, Mr. Sam Curlee raises the number one finger while singing the Alma Mater. Mr. Curlee may visit pep rallies occasionally next year because Whether l'm principal or not I always want to be a part of Lamar. To students he was Ha good friend who went out of his way to promote the spirit of the school and to try and understand the students' views. Teachers described him as: a 'Steady thoughtful person who is thorough in his work, he will listen to new ideasg he stands behind his teachersg he thinks students need experience in as many areas as possible so they need a lot of electivesg he sees the whole pictureg he is a people-person and he keeps his cool, he wants every facet of the school to be as superior as it can be. This last comment is in accordance with his own goal. While he has been principal he has worked to make Lamar a iltop-notch school academically and otherwise. Partly because of the success of this endeavor, he is able to say that 'lLamar has been the most satisfying thing I have done in my life. After serving for ll years as Lamar's only principal, Mr. Sam Curlee retired this year. When honored publicly for his service, many times he would reply, Ulf I have done as much for Lamar as it has done for me than I will have made quite an accom- plishmentf' We feel that llthe first and Number One Viking has achieved his goal.

Mr. Curlee was roasted and toasted at the social function in April that was attended by many faculty and friends.

Giving something to Mr. Curlee in the handshake at graduation has been a tradition with gifts ranging from Playboy puzzle pieces to dimes to dollars. Copy and layout by Cindy McKaughan 325 nly the best will do 'll guess the most surprising thing at the prom was that the food was good! ul was impressed that the prom tickets were only S4. Prom was not the only activity that showed signs of good planning and hard work. From academics to sports to personal achievements, students were not satisfied with 'good enough. As the year continued it was evident that students were striving for excellence. High scores on the PSAT lPreliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test, an optional test given to sophomores and juniorsl, were responsible for 7 students being given the National Merit award and 15 more being commended for their superior scores. And, about 15?-J of the graduating seniors earned college scholarships. University lnterscholastic League competition, which was hosted for the second year in a row by Lamar, gave students another chance to show their stuff. Seventeen received awards enabling Lamar to capture the overall sweepstakes trophy. Five of these progressed from regionals to state competition where they all placed. Other proofs of students going for the best included golfers winning district, the German Club hosting Novemberfest for the first time and students getting first place at the Dance Contest for cancer. Also, The Scroll newspaper and last years' Valhalla both received the top rating of Distinguished Merit by the lnterscholastic League Press Conference and the varsity soccer team went undefeated for the second year in a row. These varied instances of students trying for the best seemed to characterize the year. Over and over they sought to improve the norm. They would go for excellence, they would go for the best, they would Co for the Gold. Tl X- s,,. .

Copy and layout by Cindy McKaughan 327 'Y-92' 28 Go for the gold after graduatior Whether a senior, junior or sophomore, all students held one common goal. Throughout the year, students pursued excellence in various fields, according to their interests. However, the ultimate goal shared by all was to graduate and receive the blue and gold tassel and the diploma which testifies to this act. To 566 students, this goal of graduation was accomplished, ending the confusion, pressure and hysteria caused by many responsibilities. These included finding a college or a job, preparing for the prom, studying for finals, sending announcements and thank you notes, going to parties, Vespers, Graduation and preparing mentally for leaving old ways, friends and developing new ones. Suddenly it was all over. When the dust had settled after running up the last mile, there was time to reflect. Standing on top of the foothill of graduation, one realizes that it had been blocking the view of the mountain of life that still remains to be climbed. One cannot stand enjoying the view but must go ahead e and start a path up the mountain. To enhance this journey they posse what they learned both in heart and mir back on the hill. There they left a part of themselves bt also they took a bit of Lamar wil them. Many had striven for excellenceg son achieved it. What was important though was the trying. Hopefully this pursuit will not stop with graduation but will perpetuate up the mountain. Thus, the tradition will be continued as Vikings collectively and individually UGO for the Gold. Saying good bye to friends and getting their diplomas, students gather in the Texas Hall basement. Although the diploma was the main thing a student wanted to gain from high school somewhere along the way one also gained special relationships and m ' GITIOFISS. Life as a student in high school ends at Graduation. Susan Ponce in the invocation prays, i'Lord bless those of us about to graduate as we end this one quest and prepare to begin others. 0+ Z?
