Disco vering In teres ts hroughout high school we involved ourselves in adventures, discovering who we were and the purpose of our lives, We started out relying on other peoples values and opinions, but we grew up using our own instincts, talents and interests. We could make Baked Alaska, take quality pictures and make charcoal drawings come alive. We were talented writers, singers and artists! We perfected old interests and sought out new thrilling ones. We began setting our own goals - not ones set for us by our parents or peers. The arts drew mass attention, with the artists leading the way. Steve Chambers designed the cover of the Viking yearbook and spent half his school days at Johnston in the commercial art program. Melinda Williams designed the Beauty Ftevue backdrop and sketched Valhalla pictures. She also participated in the Saturday Morning Art Project at UT. Susan McAlpin was into making sculptures of horses. Selling her charcoal drawings made some extra money for Teri Smith. Allen Gillette passed many quiet relaxing hours painting. He also spent a great many loud exhilarating hours in motorcross races. Bose Borel put a little of herself into each Christmas, Easter or birthday card she designed. She would include in each her own poetry. Janet McGuire, a gifted ol. , v qlkv. if-'Ns writer, turned out many delightful pieces of poetry and short stories because it was enjoyable and relaxed her. The beauty and grace ot ballet made known its presence through the Austin Ballet Theater dancers, Melody Hood, Johnette Norris and Jenny Thompson, who was also active in drama. Talented Lisa Joiner and Greg Easley danced in popular Austin Civic Ballet productions. They sometimes rehearsed seven hours a day tor performances of Belictum, Nutcracker and Gaite Parisienne. The exciting sound ol Jack FairchiId's banjo rang out through the halls of Lanier as he played for various classes. l-le got interested in playing because he liked the sound of banjo music. l-le took lessons for one year and continued to study from a book by the famed Earl Scruggs. Jack made his favorite banjo from a kit. Tearing apart and rebuilding cars was a fun way to escape the pressures and tension ot school. During their free time, Guy Delisi, Aaron Zapata, George Harris and Charles Boehl would lose themselves to their own world of pistons, cherry paks, headers, grease and carburetors. In this corner, Gus Pillsbury weighed in at 138 lbs. He saw a Junior Olympic boxing competition and decided he'd like to get in on some ol the excitement. He learned style, coordination A I f ii 5 t H. f X l s ,.- , . , J 3 52' 3 l F 4 -A 1 Wi. K ' V , X X 'Q iv, . . f f T . It .wr ' ' ,AMW s X 'fa it -'. I4 Q-A .r'- 5.
