After a quarter of a century, two-hundred and five months of teaching English to the students at Lexington, Mr. A1 Roach is retiring. Mr. Roach can remember many of his past students, and often looks back on those days to entertain students of the present. Students at Lexington will remember and revere Mr. Roach for his teaching style, personality, and cardigan sweaters. As another piece of our history fades away, the memories will remain strong and friendly. 10 BUS DRIVERS Mr. Holder, Dan Tilson, Louise Box, Carletta Thompson.

It was here in this place and this time, that we learned the how, follow- ed by questioning way and answers we thought might never come. We shared good times and bad, laughter and tears, always concentrating hard on being all that life expects us to be. We studied to learn all that we could about life and man and anything else we might pick up along the way. We shouted together, ate together, listened, and participated together. From ball games on Friday nights to first hour on Monday morn- ing, from memories for our freshman year all the way through to our senior year, all going different ways, divided, we enjoyed ourselves because we spent the time together. We realize that instead of planning for the next school year at LHS, we will now be making decisions that will affect us in many more years to come. The goals or dreams we once had will either be achieved or we will realize that they were only dreams. For some the most important thing about our four years at LHS has been the people we have met and those with whom we have shared many experiences. We will remember all the people who helped us through not only the bad experiences, but also those chalked up on the good side. We each had new experiences throughout this year. We lived out some of our dreams and perhaps some of our fears. Some of us are involved in class work, some in organizations both social and academic, some involved in just othe( people. We have each made our own contribution. It may have been our first year or your fourth but it was still your year ... a year of memories — new people, new thoughts, new experiences, the bits and pieces that together make us different ... a year of memories for tomorrow and forever.

JUNIORS Hank Brothers Chris Coker John Dean Learn to Adjust Adjust? Yes but adjust to what? Juniors have been through the Freshman year of uncertainty, the Sophomore year of too much certainty and now the Junior year — a year of anxieties. But every problem is met with strength and determination, the kind of determination needed to ad- just to the challenge of the Junior year.

What is the story of a freshman year? Is it one of triumph or defeat? It may not seem very important to be a lowly freshman in this fast-paced generation. But, actually, the freshman class is the basis of the school’s future, and the future of the world. How can one describe the changes that occur in this year of their lives? 365 days of growing, learning, laughing, crying, loving, losing and living. In this difficult year, freshmen grow accustomed to both “School life,” and “Real life.” For some, one type of “life” may come easier, one may be almost impossible to control. However, everyone does learn to cope with both reality and society. This year is tough, almost sharp at times. Yet, freshmen live through it with stability, and often style. So, what is the story? It doesn’t have any ironic twists, or even a surprise ending. The story is learning to live. Future Plans . . . Here is an average example of the mature, clear-minded future plans of a few freshmen. Brenda McGee hopes to achieve the status of a wild, savage cannibal. Richard Iovan would like to create new types of ex- plosives. Nathan Gates hopes for the chance of ever getting off campus for lunch. Hallie Peltier would love to achieve perfection in the martial arts; but, at the same time he wishes for world peace. Other future plans expressed were, professional sports. Miss America, wealth, fame, marriage, beauty school, space flight, antarctic exploring, and meeting celebrities.

SCORES A TOUCHDOWN MATTHEW L. TAKES TIME OUT TO CHECK THE PLAY C COKER PULLING AWAY FOR A TOUCHDOWN BULLDOG FOOTBALL SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF The team began the year with a whirlwind win over Washington, pulling out in the last two minutes, however during the Wayne game. Win- ding rain became a proWem for the passing aspect of the game. The Bulldogs bounced back from several losses to complete against top-ranking teams. We dominated Healdton with a 13-0 shut-out. The team spent the year learning and practic- ing. and playing some of the best teams in the state. The work involved, the running, the tackl- ing. the pride and the spirit of the Lexington Bulldogs is definitely something to be proud of.

BASKETBALL LEAPS TO VICTORY Rodney Cleveland, senior, makes the jump for two points. Matthew Lorenz and Brandon Maxwell give their undivided attention to the referee Basketball High school basketball has always been a major sport in Lexington, but this year, due to a fabulous season basketball became “the sport.” The team worked hard together to organize a winning spirit and game plan, then put it to use during the hectic minutes of play. The squeak of the white Converse against the floor, the roar of the crowd, and the shrill whistle of the referees filled the gym to capacity as the boys won game after game. As years go by, we will recall this season as being one of the most interesting and victorious.

Those few, precious years of Jr. High are special, and the single group of kids who hold the ability to bring the school together and draw out tons of spirit is the Student Council. This year’s Council worked hard together to bring the students something new and innovative in the way of student council events.

Cheering takes determination, practice, and the ability to withstand very cold temperatures. (I.e. winter football games) Cheerleaders take pride in themselves and their school after they learn the value of what cheering does for the Athletic Program.

It was one of the first games played in early Ireland, and from it sprung other popular games, baseball, hockey and crickett. To a golfer, sometimes the par is more important than the scenery, but courses are by far the most elegant- ly natural playing fields of any sport. ABOVE: JOHN MELOT swings.

The Old West, not much of it around anymore; a few dusty mementous and a couple of legends. The Rodeo Club keeps the Old West alive in to- day’s hectic, modern world. Not many people can claim to have ridden an unbroken stallion, or tie down a wild steer. Club members take their rodeo interests out of school and right into their own backyards. Riding horses, and taking care of equipment is an everyday chore in their lives. With Rodeo Club, the Old West will always be alive.

Leadership members went from one leading challenge to another. From a community dinner, to occupying the Senate and House chambers of our state legislature, the club experienced the meaning of the word leading. The club had an extremely successful carnation sale for Valentine s day, met a state senator, and hosted a basement full of terror with their haunted house during the Halloween carnival. During the Youth legislature, both of the bills submitted by Lexington were passed through the houses. Rod Cleveland was awarded best committee Chairman after the Legislature was called to recess. 82 Making the World a Better Place to Club Members are.

HECTIC The yearbook has to cover the whole year of events. The staff had to attend every one of these events, taking pictures, writing notes, ask- ing for quotes, or looking for a different angle to the story. Liquid paper flew through the air like snowflakes as the deadlines loomed close and closer. India ink, eraser dust and darkroom chemicals spotted the staff's clothing as the year came to a close. Finally the load became smaller and smaller, with only the last minute details to finish. Who is the kid in the third row with the pink shirt? Did you remember to number that picture? Where did you put that list? How close are we to finishing it all? clabla Usted Espanel?

For a loiter-maniac, life is like a Levi’s 501 blue jeans commercial. Throughout the year, we caught Lexington students giving relaxation a try . . . and they seemed to enjoy it. 100 Student Council Dance Band Contest Jeremy Steele and coach Walck, just loitering. The mement is temporary . . . But the memory lasts f oreyer 1986 JR. SR. PROM 102 Rodney Cleveland — Invocation 104 Lisa Millsap — Saledictorian No matter which way the ball bounces, it’s your game. Play it to win. Yield not to misfortune. We have a wrong bounce, a fumbled ball taken for a touchdown on the athletic field — and in the game of life. Misfortune is real. So is fortune. And on the law of averages there should be enough fortune to more than offset misfortune. But it is not always proportioned that way among all people. The reason — the human factor is more important than the ball’s bounce. Fortune comes to those who grab chance and use it, and to those who take mischance and triumph over it. Others it flees. 105 Until Next Year 106 TRACTORS — MOWERS — FARM EQUIPMENT Located North of Lexington On 77 527-6675 NORTHCUTT'S- GRKnlaiun GRASS ft LANDSCAPE NURSERIES OVER 400 ACRES OF HOME GROWN TREES ft SHRUBS Authentic Mexican Food —OPEN— Mon-Thor 11-9 Frl 4 Sat 11-10 Sunday 12-7 527-6347 1-35 HWY 74 PURCELL CHICKASAW HILLS RESTAURANT Hwy. 74 I 35 Purcell, OK 527-5315 GOODNO’S JEWELRY 217 E.
