I ' e.xas. The building is filled with a student body oj JM4. one principal, two vice-principals, one dean, one registrar. 10 faculty members. ten secretaries and teacher aids, sixteen cafeteria employees, and fifteen custodians.

We have them in all types, shapes, sizes and forms: ropers, wows, jocks, brains, blow-hards, beauty queens, and quite a few that are never even seen. It is neat to put all these people together in the same environment and watch them function as apart of Bell High. We are a school of many different types of individuals, yet, we are a school bonded into one. During a single day at school, one can witness all these parts being played by the students.

With the class motto stating Nothing can be finer than to be a seventy-niner, each and every day we strived to live our motto to the fullest. To make each day more meaningful became an obsession as we realized this was our last time around. This was our last chance to show the underclassmen just how much L. D. Bell meant to us.

Members from every club and organization worked long hard hours to prepare for about 1300 students from all over the United States to come to Hurst, Texas and participate in a week-long convention.

OPENING 15 DEDICATION 16 True Greatness Johnson Well says, He who waits to do a great deal of good at once will never do anything. Life is made up of little things. It is very rarely that an occasion is offered for doing a great deal at once. True greatness consists in being great in little things. — C. Simmons It has also been said that when one considers the tremendous consequences that come from little things, that there are no little things. The 19 8- 9 Raider Staff would like to dedicate the RAIDER to Mrs. Margie Parkey for all of the little things she has contributed to L. D. Bell High School. IKS. I ' MikKY 17 The world is blessed most by men who do things, and not by those who merely talk ahot them. — James OliiH Each student at L. D. Bell High School has the chance to become a doer. Manypeop accept that responsibility and become active in one or more of the many clubs. It is this Ian percentage of people that receive a large percentage of attention focused on then ..• « ,« PROMOTING SCHOOL COOPERATION Hey! What ' s everybody doing out of class? There ' s an I.C.C. meeting in the teacher ' s cafeteria. What does I.C.C. stand for? I ' ve heard of it, but what on earth do ya ' ll do? Oh, we have a representative from every club in the school — that in itself is a real good trick! At the meetings we fill each other in on all the activities going on and report any special projects of interest. The whole purpose of the club is to keep things running smoothly and to promote cooperation among the organizations. I.C.C. stands for Inter-Club Council, don ' t you think that ' s pretty appropriate? That sounds pretty neat. Keep up the good work! FRONT ROW — E. Hinckley, T. Beard-Johnson. T. Turley. K. Godwin.

INTER-CLUB COUNCIL 21 HIGH LEVEL OF ENTHUSIASM Announcements are an everyday oceurrencc at L. D. Bell, with a few exceptions. Once a year when the familiar buzzing and crackling of the sound system is heard, new members of the National Honor Society are announced. There are mixed emotions of joy, disappointment, and indifference among the student body. Unknown to many of those who made it. the names traveled through numerous channels before the selection was finalized. First of all, .Juniors and Seniors with a 2.5 grade point average or above are placed on a list. The faculty members then vote on the students, and the votes are tallied. N.H.S. members stay active throughout the year with their participation in assemblies, the coronation of the Homecoming Queen, ordering t- shirts, and tutoring other students in all subject areas. Each member applies just as much enthusiasm and hard work to these extra-curricular activities as to their regular studies. MEMBERS ARE — J. Bannister. D. Barber, M. Beck, T. Bigham, M. Bomberger, J.

The list of activities flows continuously from week to week. Providing breakfasts and birthday cakes for faculty members, sponsoring spirit contests and dances, and sponsoring Homecoming festivities were just a few of the many activities. Members also took charge of Thanksgiving and Christmas activities for students, faculty and the community. With all the action, there was ne ver a dull moment for the L. D. Bell Student Council.

STUDENT COUNCIL 24 BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE The 1978-79 school year has proved to be a ver successful year. While our rival schools have been boasting that they are number one. we at Bell High School have proved that we are trulv number one on the football field, volleyball court, classroom, etc. . . . U e are very fortunate to have a principal and faculty that will support us in every endeavor we pursue. To the members of the student council and sponsors. I give my sincere thanks for the hard work and extra time you graciously gave to make this year a successful one. It was mv pleasure to work with you and I wish vou the ven best of luck. As Mrs. Baker savs. YOU . RE BE.ALTIFUL PEOPLE. Through the years, L. D. Bell High School has paved the way for us.

Every year a new group of sophomores, juniors, and seniors put their heads together for a winning combination called the Raider annual. The time involved (one class period a day, after school, and weekends) seems minimal compared to the fun and the end result. Each summer the staff attends a workshop at Texas Tech University. At Tech, new ideas are formulated, the theme is selected, and awards are given. This year, the Raider staff received two awards — first and second place for layout design. Focus your attention on the Raider annual and then enjoy it. Catherine Coyle — Editor-in-Chief, and Mrs. Carolyn Dean — Sponsor.

ANNUAL STAFF 27 CHEERLEADERS KEEP SPIRIT HIGH Instantly upon entering L. D. Bell, a person becomes aware of a strange force that grips the body and mind and swirls one into an eternal whirlpool. The force is Raider spirit, and at the center of the whirlpool are the cheerleaders. Their vibrant energy radiates through the school. Soon the student body and faculty absorb the energy and pass it along until everyone is bursting with enthusiasm. Every Friday afternoon, the gymnasium pounds with the roar of human voices above all the clarity of eight boisterous girls. At each pep rally, the cheerleaders stomp, clap, and scream L. D. Bell into a wild frenzy. Everything is a blur of blue and white signs, pom-pons, and uniforms which set the colorful tones of a Raider pep rally. When the roar has subsided, the cheerleaders are still hard at work preparing for the next game, the next pep rally. Homecoming, or new ribbon sales. Upon leaving L. D. Bell one might say, Keep that spirit up! Don ' t worry, the cheerleaders know how to do iti Kendi Marshall — Senior A — Mrlunif Bnk — Senior B — .Angela Benson — Junior CHEERLEADERS 28 PERPETUAL MOTION A — Dawn DuvatI — Senior B — Ruthcy Bates — Junior FRONT ROW — Lora Maxwell.

Everyone ' s attention focuses on the blue nd white clad group of girls. It was a year of change and experimentation for this tradition-oriented drill team. The march gave way to a sweeping lide from each end of the field. The group also worked harder to use numerous props for various routines. There were also new faces to recognize s in every new year. The style is new, but the Raiderettes are the same polished drill team as always. A — Jean Knighl and Melinda Ross perform before a large crowd on a Friday niphl at Pennington Field.

There are signs and crepe paper everywhere! Are we being invaded? Invaded? Aw, go on! It ' s the Blue Rowdies. Who are the Blue Rowdies and what do they do? You ' ve gotta be kidding. The Blue Rowdies is a spirit club at L. D. Bell. During football season they make run-through signs for every game, sit together at games and yell, perform skits during pep rallies, and sponsor a spirit contest between classes. Blue Rowdies also help members of the leadership class carry out their projects. Then, once a year, they initiate another person into the hall of recognition.

None of them are teachers . . . yet The Future Teachers of America are all working toward a common goal — becoming the teachers of tomorrow. Projects such as fixing bulletin boards and working with elementary students help to prepare the girls for what lies ahead. Other activities include building a float for the Homecoming Parade, a banquet, and selecting a teacher of the month from the L. D. Bell faculty. So, what do all these girls have in common now?

Young Life is a really unique club. There is a time for people to have fun, cut up. and act crazy. Then there is a time to watch other people have fun. cut up. and act crazy. FinalK there is a time to quiet down and learn about God. In other words Young Life is singing: (In three different keys at once). Skits! (Jeff McClasky with a pie in his face or Henry Torres covered with raw eggs.) And learning! (Jimmy Taylor doing his impression of Peter walking on water.) But Young Life is not confined to the Monday night jmeetings. There are also flamingo football games, weekend retreats, summer camps, ski trips, nd much more. If, after all that, a person wants to learn still more, he or she can join k-ampaigners. Campaigners are members of Young Life who meet again during the week to study he Bible more extensively. To sum it up. Young Life combines fun, learning, enthusiasm, and fellowship to form one of the largest clubs at L. D. Bell. YOUNG LIFE 39 TALL FISH TALES Although it is only in its second year at Bell, Bass Busters has established a place of its own. The membership increased steadily and many experienced fishermen were discovered. Members hold fond memories of waking up at 5:00 and 6:00 in the morning to travel to far- off tournaments. Then one might sit for hours to get just a nibble. Finally, at the end of the day weary fishermen traveled back home in time to study for those Monday morning tests. It was all a part of life for the Bass Busters. A — Ronnie Huskey reads the minutes of the last meet ing. Kurtis Walker points out the site of the next Bass tourna ment.

Bell Bummerettes are claiming. With the Raiderettes as their coaehes. this hard working group of senior guys ran t lose. The Bummerettes soaring high kicks and graceful roll-offs have made them an instant favorite with the student bod . Their exciting entrances (tripping down the auditorium aisles) and fabulous finishes (falling down like a stack of dominoes) make a thrilling performance from beginning to end. This unique group started the year off by dancing (or so it was called) at the Senior Follies.

Members compete in such events as bull riding, bareback and saddle bronc riding, and calf roping for the guys. Girls compete in barrel racing, steer riding, and goal tying. Winners in these events receive buckles and trophies. To raise money, members of the Rodeo Club put on two rodeos each year. An open show is held during the summer, and a high school show is held during the school year. Members do everything from selling tickets to running stock to organizing a country dance. It is sometimes said that rodeo is the number one sport in America. This is especially true for the members of the L. D. Bell Rodeo Club. A — OFFICERS — FRONT ROW — L. Hammonds — Secretary. S.

After ranking high at speech contests and earning a certain number of points, students are considered for membership in NFL. But, not everyone is accepted. Only those students with high scholastic ability, in at least the top half of their class, are worthy of the honor to become members. After being accepted, new members go through initiation. Initiation usually includes memorizing the purpose of NFL, dressing in a strange manner, and taking a lot of harassment from other members. This teaches new initiates how to handle different situations. A — OFFICERS — FRONT ROW — Mike Collins — President.

Bell Choraliers practicing for their next (oMcert. Choraliers are musical students who are interested in singing. Hard work and self disci[iline are necessar in this choir. Members must learn to work together and depend on each other. Each part of e er production is a joint effort. Even the soloists are not alone. They de|)end on people to accompany them, take care of the lighting and the sou nd equipment. This lesson in teamwork is important to every member of the choir. Not only will it help them in their concerts, but it is also useful in later life. As in all fine arts, choir is another step to maturity. A — Miss Douglas — Director. CHOR.ALIERS 82 .

I As the tardy bell rings for A Capella choir, members file in and pick up their folders. These folders contain music, handouts, theory lessons, anc much more. After everyone is seated, ten to fifteen minutes of warmups begin. The voice muscles, like leg muscles, need to be stretched before strenuous exercise. Various types of singing are used until all voices are ready. After the voice is prepared, back and neck muscles may also be stretched. This brings about a relaxed state, so everyone is ready to sing. For the next few minutes, members of the A Capella choir sight read. I sight reading, students are handed a piece of music they have never seen before. After six minutes of looking over the music and hearing it once on ' the piano, all sections sing it for the first time all the while striving for perfection. Practicing sight reading prepares the choir for UIL choral contest After sight reading is over, some time may be spent on theory. Slides are used to teach students different types of rhythms. Types of chords anc keys of music are also learned. This helps students become more familiar with music and helps them learn it more easily. Finally, practice foi upcoming concerts begins. After the music is learned, rough spots are smoothed out. Sometimes an entire class period is spent working with jusi one section while other sections look over their parts. In the end, all of this work leads to perfection, Special projects are also a big part of choir. Instead of giving Christmas presents this year, everyone drew names for letters. Each person wrote s letter to another person encouraging them and thanking them for all their hard work. A trip to Georgia is also a highlight. The A Capella choir wil compete in Six Flags Over Geoi gia ' s Choral contest ' CAPELLA 84 STUDENTS WIN TOP HONORS A — ALL REGION — FRONT ROW — M. Trammel, M. Williams. SECOND ROW — D. Campbell, B.

WORITES 100 School activities seem to have kept Marci Smith and Jim Bannister busy during the 1978- ' 79 year. As the Senior Class Favorites, Marci and Jim were involved in a wide array of activities. Marci served actively as the Treasurer of Student Council, Vice-President of Honor Society, a member of the Senior Class Council, and she also held the number one girl ' s posi- tion on the varsity tennis team. Jim played on the varsity football team, served as a member of the Honor Society, and found enjoyment in playing the guitar or par- ticipating in various sports in his extra time. Marci and Jim expressed that their favorite thing about L. D. Bell High School was the spirit, the beautiful people, and the teaching staff.

One young man found a lance to promote spirit through Sophomore lass Council, Student Council, F.C.A., Bass iusters, and Young Life. This man is the ophomore class favorite and his name is Tim ook. His other interests include footba water skiing, and fishing. A person being involved in so much has to like people. This is why Tim feels this is the most interesting thing about himself. Penny Walton, also a sopho- more favorite, is not only involved in Student Council, and Young Life, but also enjoys play- ing Softball, swimming, and other sports.

Meadows and Coover, rushing for over a hundred yards. As a matter of fact, all of the team played well. Ray Harris blocked an important point for the defense, and Rodney Gill returned a punt for a touchdown for the specialties teams. The other teams in the district better watch out for the L. D.

FOOTBALL 118 Champs BELL — 6 DUNCANVILLE — DEFENSE SHOWS ITS OVERWHELMING POWER Bell survived two fourth quarter surges by the dormant Panthers. Bell had dominated the first half, gaining almost twice as much as their opponents. Ron Faurot blocked two passes to lead the defense that was playing with championship caliber. With 4:30 left on the clock the Panthers took one last shot. With fourth down at the Raider 7 yard line, Duncanville fell short when Mickey Maxey deflected the pass away fr om the intended receiver. Mark Churchman ' s toe proved to be the difference with field goals from 36 and 22 yards out. This made the Raiders 3-0 in district play. . ,_ A — Greg Finch colides with his opponent.

One could feel the excitement just by sitting in the stands. Time after time, the crowd was brought to their feet by the many outstanding plays of the Raiders. At first, it seemed that the Raiders might disappoint their Homecoming crowd. Many times in the first half, the Bell drives were stopped by the solid Grand Prairie defense, ranked number one in the district. The game was a deadlock until the fourth quarter. Then Bell ' s powerful offense, led by Osborn, began to show its championship character. With four minutes left in the game, Osborn took the Raiders to the Gopher 20 yard-line by way of a bomb to Anthony Bell. Four plays later, Osborn took the Homecoming crowd ' s breath away by scoring from the two. A — Finch on a Gopher hunt. B — Coov on the move. C — Big Bird tells the story.

GRAND PRAIRIE — 12 ONE GAME AWAY FROM BEING THE BEST The Bell Blue Raiders made touchdowns on their first two possessions which enabled them to clinch it in the fourth quarter. Support from the tenacious Raider defense helped us to slide past the Warriors. Coach Edwards summed it up by saying, We got all the points we needed early, and the defense caused the turnovers to help us get control of the game. Now the Raiders travel to Irving. With a victory their bi-district dreams will be fulfilled. A — Clancy breaks away. B — Kelly deflects a pass. C — Jimmy Bannister shows he can do it too. FOOTBALL 122 PS BELL — 24 IRVING — 13 WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS Many significant things could be said about the statistics and plays of this game, but one can most assuredly state that the Blue Raiders Football team is the district 4A-9 champs. Even- young m an on the Varsity had a common goal, and that was to play in Texas Stadium. All of the hard work that they put forth brought them to their goal. Focus on us, we have met our goal.

All through the first half the Raiders could not pull ahead with the score 10 to 7. Then, in the last quarter, victory almost came to the Blue Raiders when they pulled ahead 14-10. Suddenly, the Trojans began a powerful pass-run attack down the field and scored twice in the last four minutes to pull ahead of the Raiders 23-14. -Coach Edwards looks on with mixed feelings.

The anxious crowd displayed a feeling of great anticipation as they presented their tickets and found their seats. For the Raider Football team and their fans, this was a dream come true; a night that had been looked forward to far in advance. The Raider teams names were up in lights: L. D. BELL BLUE RAIDERS -vs.- GARLAND OWLS . ll 15,000 fans throughout the stadium roared with pride. The coin was tossed and the Raiders chose to receive. The stage had been j et and the game was ready to be played. From the opening kickoff a constant battle between the strong Raider defense and the speedy Owls offense was seen. The Owls ' offense broke for two long touchdowns, an 86 yarder and another 65 yarder, made by the Owls quarterback, Herkie Walls. Then, at the opening of the second half, the Raiders kicked an on-side kick that was fumbled by the Owls and recovered by Raider David Dyson. A few plays later Osborn passed to Bobby Reyero for a Raider touchdown. Mark Churchman ' s kick for the extra point was good and the Raiders were back in the game. But once again the speedy Owls broke for a 35-yard touchdown by Dhwayne Love and the game ended with the Raiders attempting to score. The final score was Raiders 7, Owls 20. The Raiders were still champions in 1978, winning the District crown, for they had achieved a title that can never be taken away from them. The team had reached their goal. The Raider Football Team had truly been worth focusing on. A — Raiders push for an extra yard. Ray Harris on ihe move, ready to sack an Owl. Kurtis Walker downs the speedy Owl.

With a record of 7-2-1 the Raider J.V. was far from a pushover. The experience that they gained will definitely benefit the 79-80 Blue Raider Varsity team. The J.V. also plays an important part in the preparation of the Varsity.

Whether it is hot or freezing cold, these young men get out and run many miles each day. During a school week, these students run an estimated average of twenty-five miles. The Cross Country Team had a flourishing year. The estimated three hundred miles they ran for conditioning paid off. Entering district meets as a tough contender, time and time again they submerged victorious. The stiff competition that they reigned over led them to be District Champions. The team ventured to r onals as district champs and one team member, Frank Everly, qualified to go to the state meet. This was the third sport to attain a district championship at Bell this year.

Poised and seasoned for district play, the Raiders were looking fonvard to a big win, but fell just short of victory by 6 points. The closing score was 63-69. The second district game was quite a different story. Bell let the thunder roar with a 73-61 win over Ir ing High School. Kenny Ames and Wes Walters led the Raiders in the scoring category with 18 and 16 points respectively. B. SKETB.ALL 1.37 FIRST HALF LOST TO RAIDERS Irving Nimitz was the next opponent for Bell in district play. The Raiders continued their climb toward a district title with a 63-54 victory-. Ron Faurot dominated the boards all night long. scoring a game high of 20 points. Derek Deguire and Wes Walters added 11 points each toward the victory. Bell ' s hopes for a first half district title were diminished on January 9, when they lost to Grand Prairie by one mere point, 56-55. Bell was ahead throughout most of the game until the last couple of minutes when five straight free throws by the Gophers turned the tables for the Raiders. Ron Faurot again led the scoring for Bell with 16 points. A — Ames soars high for two. B — Hilton at the foul line. - Walters goes up for a rebound. C BASKETBALL 138 -J m • THIRD PERIOD A BAD TIME The third quarter seemed to be a bad time for the Raiders in district play, and this game was no exception. The Raiders were held to 8 points in the third quarter compared to MacArthur ' s 20. Trailing 55-54 in the fourth quarter the Blue Raiders made an outstanding come back led by Stan Hilton, who scored a game high of 25 points. Ron Faurot and Kenny Ames also scored in the double figures with 12 and 17 points. These three young men are a big reason why Bell pulled this game out with a score of 74-67. Free throws were definitely the advantage that gave Duncanvilie the slight edge over Bell. The Raiders were so close at the end of each period that one would think that the Blue Machine would surely surge ahead very quickly with great force. Unfortunately the Raiders never got the edge they needed to make them the winners over Duncanvilie. The final score was 63 to 59. A — Stan Hilton going for one from the edge. B — Ron Faurot flying for the ball. C — Derek Deguire trying one from way out. C ' ' ■ ' BASKETBALL 139 — Hilton drives toward the basket.

Bell was outshot from the floor 45 to 42 percent and out rebounded 40-33. The Raiders were out scored 15-6 in the third period, thus destroy- ing what was a close game. Ames and Hilton once again led Bell in scoring, combining for 30 points from mostly outside. The Blue Machine opened the second half of district with optimism toward a second half title, hosting the South Grand Prairie Warri- ors. The Raiders fell behind early and were never able to catch up. The final score ended in a 63-49 loss. Hilton totaled 13 points on the night to lead the Raiders. BASKETBALL 140 The Raiders traveled to Irving High School for an important encounter with the Tigers. Bell stayed close throughout the contest with the hot, outside shooting of Kenny Ames and Stan Hilton, who ended the evening with 20 and 15 points respectively. Irving pulled away with a narrow victory, this time the score ending 81-74. Bell came within one point of an upset victory over the Nimitz Vikings in their next game. Regulation time ended with the score at a 52 all deadlock. Kenny Ames ' clutch free throw shooting in overtime helped the Raiders take a 3 point lead.

We could see the full earth, North and South America. It looked like a bright Christmas tree ball, an ornament, almost fragile. It made me appreciate everything we have on earth and to appreciate for the first time, the creation of God. As we adults look out upon the vast and great potential of the youth of today, we are literally astounded at the future we see for each of you. The focus of the entire world is on the youth of America. You accepted the challenge of that focus last summer by hosting the N.A.S.C. )nvention.

Yet some have ventured beneath the waves to witness the breathtaking beauties below. Kenny Ames is one of these lucky few. During the summer he dove off the coast of California, into the Pacific Ocean. Scuba diving, described by Kenny, is a free- dom only the ocean can offer. The colors of the plants, cor- rals, and rock formations accent this freedom. Schools of fish often engulf you and trying to escape is to no avail. Kenny also gives us a look into what it takes to scuba dive. He shows us his mask, air tanks, and various other pieces of equipment.

A mother bird feeding her young or a cheetah running free in the wild, capture the importance and the beau- ties of the wilderness like nothing ever has before. Steve Kidwell has found his own way of having nature in his home by raising homing pigeons. He takes these pigeons to ail parts of the Southwest and records the amount of time it requires them to get home. Distance and time are computed to get an average speed of each pigeon. According to Steve, the pigeons are not that difficult to take care of, and all in all, the hobby proves to be worthwhile and full of excitement and challenge.

Sterling EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT BEES BUT WERE AFRAID TO ASK! How many of you like honey? Do you know where it comes from? Does it come from Kim Kendricks? NO! It comes from her bees. That ' s right, she raises bees. She has eight hives that contain approximately 10-50 thou- sand bees each. She got started through a friend across the street who also raises bees. The hives come in kits and each winter they build several. These bees take as much time and care as a regular pet. She has to water them just like a dog. She puts water in a tire to keep the bees from visiting their neighbor ' s pool. Bee Keep- ing requires a lot of materials. She shows us the wax and supers that bees need in order to raise their young and store their honey. After the bees have made their honey she robs them. She uses a smoker to stun the bees and then steals the honey without getting stung — usually. SENIORS 298 75% of the Seniors like to snow ski SENIORS 299 1 feel good all under.

INDEX 321 E(jbcli Uo«MeMt BiiM s A Re(fecfeo i of Ptte uk{uf) v ' v: A special friendship is probably one of the most beautiful experiences anyone can encounter during a lifetime. During one ' s stay at Bell many new friendships are formed, and many old friendships flourish. As the year comes to a close, mixed emotions are felt by students and teachers. For most seniors this will be their last time to see many of their fellow classmates, but the memories gained from these friendships have become a part of each individual ' s life. As one exits the halls of Bell High, he leaves as a more complete individual because of the moments that have been shared together. CLOSING 323  The MoH IS so blfssfd with m f)holograph !
