Look again — the story of life within a brick building at 600 Waddell Street. Some say it resembles a factory or a big lavatory because of the tiled walls. Almost 1000 people spent 180 days be- hind these walls. A select so- ciety of students and faculty learning from one another. Whether vocationally, busi- ness, or academically in- clined this learning was the common purpose for our co-existence 5 days a week — only a segment of the American socialization process. Look again at what happened 1973-1974 — re- _ member the energy crisis: daylight saving time, and walking to school in the dark, arriving in time for a beautiful sunrise, forming carpools, getting a lot more exercise. Two new bicycle racks had to be built to hold the influx of new riders. 55 MPH instead of 70. Longer time but fewer accidents. Odd even license plate days, $3 limit, and under half a tank were supposed to be enforced. However, it wasn ' t as hard as was ex- pected. Remember the crazy weather: School was called off two days in a row — it was too hot to do anything; hot, cold, boiling, freezing. If you don ' t like the weather, wait ' til tomor- row!

Perennial behavior carried over from last year: mooning over fountains, loving under stairs and rendez-vous at the next class or at lockers, rowdi- ness, testing sixteen new teachers and substitutes, dissipating on the weekends and sometimes before school, an excellent sports program as usual. Even TOO good — last year with Augusta County in the Valley District. Sportsmanship awards and winning teams go for granted at LHS. The year was marked by a trend to look again at everything we once accepted or dis- agreed with. Dissolution- ment in national govern- ment — Watergate corrup- tion and impeachment pro- ceedings helped cause apathy at the school level. Why an SCA? Abolishing the point system arguments for revision and abolishment. We looked again and abol- ished it. Does the SCA do anything? Apathy rules when ten show up for a clean-up day. Introspection of values, finding one ' s niche at LHS and in life, fighting the sys- tem or living with it in peace. Getting sick of the whole thing and escaping to Goshen and Twin Falls for relaxation. Alcohol and pot are very much a part of some student ' s weekends. Is it really an escape to euphoria or just a bad trip. Letters to the SCARLETTER on apathy. Whose fault is the lack of spirit at games? Who cares? There were innovations: seven instead of five minutes between classes — enough time to socialize with friends or smoke a cigarette or barely get to English class from the shop in time.

Cross country started with the Buena Vista Road Race. Girl ' s basket- ball began with new uniforms for both teams, J.V. and Varsity. Football forged on even though there was an upset against Harri- sonburg. Fans, cheerleaders, and football players found a great way to recover from the hard work at games with a pizza and coke at C. I. afterwards. The Varsity cheerleaders served two lunch- eons for the players to show their faithfulness. The JV team worked hard too for a fairly good sea- son. November ended football season with one more game to go, Powder Puff, which ended in a Junior victory, 6-0. At V.M.I. foot- ball games sophomores made money as guides. Juniors pre- ferred selling donuts once again. The band prospered from a Pan- cake Breakfast. Seniors made money from their last dance, Homecoming. The theme was Nostalgia .

Fall events 23 “School days, school days, Good old golden rule days; Reading, ’riting and ’rithmatic, Taught to the tune of a hickory stick. ” The good ole Lexington High School days began in 1894 with an enrollment of 22 students. Ten years later the high school was moved to the old Ann Smith Acad- emy building for a nominal rent. A short time later, the building was declared unsafe due to faulty foundations. A school bond issued for $20,000 was passed by the citi- zens of Lexington to erect a new building. The Ann Smith Board of Trustees donated the lot where the Ann Smith building stood. There was much discussion about tearing down the Ann Smith building be- cause the citizens had a senti- mental attachment for it. The newspapers were flooded with pro and con arguments. The State Legislature passed an “Act of Assembly” that gave the Ann Smith Board of Trustees the authority to dispose of the building. A new building was erected and classes began in 1909. The increas- ing student body at Lexington High made extra space essential. To fulfill the dreams for the best possible education a high school student could ever hope for, a new high school was built in 1926 along Woods Creek. It served as Lexing- ton High School until 1960 when it became Waddell Elementary. By 1960, the consistantly expanding student enrollment had led to the erection of the present day fa- cilities. The students for this new school were drawn from the city and the county districts of Kerrs Creek and Buffalo. Effinger High School became an elementary and its students joined the LHS ranks at this time also. In 1965 Lylburn Downing High School students further increased the Lexington High School Student body. The high school now includes grades 8-12. The Mobile Units behind the school were added in the late 60’s to take care of the overflow of students. Lexington High School is governed by the Joint Committee for Control of LHS which is made up of members from both the city and Rockbridge County school boards. The enrollment is approx- imately 900 which puts LHS in the double A class rating under Virginia High School League Rules. Rockbridge County was formed in 1778. The county seat was named Lexington after the famous battle in Lexington, Mass- achusetts. This area lays claim to at least two Virginia governors, Cyrus McCormick, the resting place of Lee, Stonewall Jackson’s home, Michael Miley, Marshall Library, Virginia Military Insti- tute, the nation’s first state mili- tary college and Washington and Lee University ( 1 749). 24 History Essay This is an old Miley photograph looking north on Main Street. Legend has it that this depicts General Lee’s funeral proces- sion in 1870. Michael Miley was a well- known Lexington photographer after the Civil War. He is best known for his photo- graphs of Lee. However , in 1903 he, also, perfected and patented the three color pro- cess well before its time. A number of old Miley plates have come to light recently and are now being printed. Notice the cracks in the glass negative. The Stonewall Jackson Home, once a hos- pital, has been rennovated and is now a museum.

After an absence of one year, the Powderpuff Football Game returned in 1973 pitting the junior girls in white jerseys against the senior girls in blue jerseys. The game was played after school on November 20. A week of hard practice came through in the junior ' s performance. They won, 6-0. Val Dock scored the lone touchdown. In the last minutes of the game, the seniors were deep in enemy territory but the clock ran out before they could score. Halftime activities highlighted the game. The boy cheerleaders put on a routine for the en- joyment of the spectators.

Winter Events 31 Fads and fashions — What you wore in 74 The year 1974 saw a parade of fads fashions plus an energy crisis which caused a few fads of its own, i.e. car pools and bik- ing. The most spectacular fad was streaking, a phenomena in which people ran around with- out their clothes on. The whole nation was exposed even LHS when a few daring students bared themselves. Publicised as the biggest rage since swallow- ing goldfish and crowding into telephone booths, streaking soon ran itself out. Other fads were more prevalent in the high school. Hats-visors, news- boy caps made of recycled denim colored the halls. Old cut-offs became shoulder bags. Girls sported latigo clogs, pur- ses and belts. Stripes, argyle and polka-dot socks peeped out under students’ pants. Kids flipped over American Graffiti and reflected their enthusiasm in 50’s stvle of dress. The main staple in every stu- dent’s wardrobe was jeans. They came belled, flared, high- waisted, hip huggers, faded and embroidered. Straight-legged Levi’s, carpenter baggies (screwdrivers and dungarees with a belt buckle in the back became popular as the year wore on.) Overalls were status symbols. The idea was to look sloppy while being neat such as wear- ing a pair of jeans with a good- looking sweater, platforms or other accessories. Longer skirts (below the knee) and dresses made an appear- ance on a daring few but were greeted with odd looks. Minis were still definitely “IN” at LHS. Halter and midriff tops were the fashion or rather the lack of it. Peasant smocks, polo shirts, football jerseys and work shirts were other popular tops. In the hair department guys often outdid the girls with smartly styled locks. The long, straight center parted hair style was the uniform look for most girls. However, more and more girls got bold and shed their hair in favor of sleeker short cuts. Corn-rowing, plait- ing the hair in many braids, didn’t quite replace the afro. Among footwear, students added inches to their height with platform shoes and stacked heels. Exercise sandals, top- siders, hiking boots, clogs and the ever prevalent saddle shoe, also, walked the halls. It was a year of “do your own thing” “anything goes.” Pur- suing individual tastes came before following the crowd. Hopefully this will provide a retrospect, so that in ten years you will have some idea of what vou wore in 1974. 32 Fads and Fashions Students were Dancing in the Moonlight at the Christmas Dance to the music of the Chord- inators. Preparations began in October and finished with success on December 15. At the last minute the original band can- celled but the class of 75 pulled through. Decorations included: 500 snowflakes, a revolving, glittering moon and star studded table covers. Cookies, pretzels, cider and coke refreshed couples. After the dance, departing dates found falling snow outside. Sophomores were amazed and pleased to reap $150 on their first dance. Barnstorm, from Staunton, not only provided musical entertainment but turned promotion papers into airplanes and shot them into the air. A football game commenced during a band break. February 23rd discovered a gym with a silver speckled sky and red hearts, the moon and stars on the mur- al led wall, all depicting a Midnight Lovers Dream . In all a successful sophomore venture.

No posters were al- lowed to obstruct vision of the stage by hanging from the ceiling. Peter Clayton opposed Carill Valentine for President with Peter winning. For Vice President were Danny Rexrode and Carter McCrowell with Danny coming out ahead. A primary was held between Kim Carter, Dee Mays and Mary Jane Emore for secre- tary-treasurer.

These lights revolved around the gym to add to the effect. The murals in the gym were large puzzles of dif- ferent designs. The murals were color ed in with flourescent paint. The backdrop in the cafeteria, which the students posed in front of for their picture was like the larger murals in the gym. The gym door reflected the mood and the light of the dance as it was decorated with aluminum foil. The ceiling in the gym was covered with large sheets of white satin which swooped down like a canopy. Favors for the prom were circles of paper splashed with flourescent paint on all colored yarn. While the boys worked on the ceiling these junior girls busy themselves with the tedious task of making favors. As the big evening draws near, Martha Cauley and Pam Drake artistically drip wax onto the wine bottles. 50 Chrono Hiding the lockers is the job that Ricky Davis and Tyler Holstein tackle.

After a basic good time, students began entering the dance. Inside, the white ceiling swooped down like a canopy. Kaleidoscope patterns were re- flected off the ceiling and the walls. Everywhere was color. Dur- ing band breaks the worn out dancers refreshed themselves with jello punch, cookies, pota- to chips, dip, etc. Some couples went to have their pictures taken by the professional photographer before the original backdrop. In the middle of the dance, the an- nual Senior promenade started with couple 1 and seemed to end with 101. Excalibur, for $800 provided the music. Favors were painted discs with Kaleidoscope 74 on them. Then the dance ended. There were more parties and breakfasts, and soon, before anybody realized it, it was over, time to think of other things.

Prom 53 Lunchtime follies, fun food and frolics A well-earned break from the softball field is used by John Higgins and John Carter to pitch pennies. Three minutes before lunch an influx of seniors plus those who try to pass for seniors pour into the cafeteria. The two lunch periods are a time to wolf down what you can and socialize. Groups of students cluster in the halls and exchange the latest news as when Hank Aaron hit over 715 home runs and the 100th Kentucky Derby. Some of the boys line the walls to watch the girls go by and whistle appropriately. Then there are the phone hogs — the same four or five, who almost every day call friends all during lunch. The pinchers and penny pitchers roamed the halls making it hazardous for everyone and any female in their way.

Friday May 3, brought the Port- land High School band from Conn, to Lexington. The guests stayed in band members homes and were entertained by ' their hosts. Sat. the two groups pic- nicked at Robertson Lake. That night was the joint concert where, directed by a famous di- rector, Eric Osterling, Portland played a song composed by him, ' The Scarlet Hurricane ' . On May 16, the time had come to pay a return visit. The LHS band de- parted at 9 P.M. in 2 chartered buses. While traveling, bubble blowing contests and singing passed the time. Once everyone was conked out it was time for breakfast at 4:30 A.M. in N.J. The band arrived at Mystic Seaport, Mystic Conn., at 9:30. Mystic is a shipbuilding town with numer- ous exhibits such as the only existing wooden Whaling ship. After five hours of tours and lec- tures they departed to arrive in Portland at 3:30 and to be greet- ed with banners and cheering. After dinner at the host ' s home the two bands met for a practice and then people went their own separate ways: some to greet long awaited beds, others to greet the town. Saturday morning the Lexington band toured Wes- leyan College in Middletown, Conn. During a picnic at Rocky Neck State Park all were fed well and could play volleyball, soft- ball, or swim. That night both bands performed separately and also combined. Mr. Osterling and Mr. Sayblack shared the conduc- torship of the combined band. After the concert they were en- tertained by a dance at the school. Good times were halted by the thought of leaving. At 8:30 Sunday morning the buses left for a view of New York City.

In the comedy two aunts, portrayed by Elaine Claar and Tama Natkin, put old gentle- men to peace with arsenic and elderberry wine, under the noses of Officers Klein, Brophy and O ' Hara. The officers were con- stantly on the listen for Teddy ' s (alias Pres. Roosevelt) bugle. The play was well executed and left the audience amused and de- lighted.

Besides, the team always had some of that secret formula thirst quencher on hand. The coaches and the team were pleased with the early practices. The Big Red Machine looked good.

As defending champions in the district the Hurricane wanted a victory. That team was up for that game. They were UP! As the final buzzer sounded, the Lexington fans walked away in shock, the team walked away disappointed and tired. They lost. The rest of the season was spent destroying the remaining teams on the schedule. Old Buena Vista really got the ax. The Big Red definitely put the moves on them. The 1973 foot- ball season was a source of pride for LHS. And as the last year in the district, something to remember.

Still by far the largest amount of students claimed ' no ride ' . Twenty percent of those interviewed disliked basketball or weren ' t interested and didn ' t understand it. The people who went to more games did because they ' felt like it ' , because they knew more people, or were dating someone who went and by far the greatest amount of students said, ' because we were winning ' . The student survey was done by a ran- dom sampling. Using the student catalog in the office, every twentieth student was interviewed. Of those inter- viewed, thirty-eight percent were city residents, sixty-two Eighty-eight percent of the student Dody attended at least one of the ten football games. The average student went to four home games and one away game. Basket- ball gathered forty-five per- cent of the student body at at least one out of the twenty games. The average student attended 1.7 home games and .3 away games. Track meets garnered seventeen percent attendance with the standard student attending .5 of a meet. Girl ' s basketball had a 23.8 per cent atten- dance record with a regular student attending .5 of a game at LHS. Wrestling had fourteen percent participa- tion with the typical student attending .3 of a meet. Stu- dents surveyed claimed that 42.8 percent attended less sports events, 33.3 percent more and 23.8 percent re- mained the same. A large percentage of the students percent were county dwel- lers, fifty-two percent female and forty-eight percent male. Gradewise nineteen percent were seniors, four- teen percent were juniors, twenty-four percent were sophomores, twenty-one percent were eighth graders. Many of the boys were plan- ning on playing football, baseball or running track with some interest shown in wrestling and golf. The stu- dents ' survey also showed interest in other sports es- pecially among tne girls. Volleyball for the girls ap- peared to be the favorite sport if a team could be or- ganized. Many of the girls were interested in a swim team or a tennis team. Also softball, and gymnastics had their followers. All these teams had the boys ' enthusi- asm though not to the same degree.

All the wrestlers ex- pressed their enjoyment at this form of competition and hope to excel next year with only one senior graduating off the team. Student support was fair and en- couraging.

The JV team took to the field in mid- September and played very well, displaying a vast improvement over last year ' s talented but in- experienced team. The new play- ers seemed to cover for the tal- ent lost to the varsity squad. Through the season the team won before the home crowds consis- tently. Two games were lost, but both of these games were away. They proved to be quite impres- sive. Speed and accuracy were the teams assets. The backs and the line seemed quick and well coached. During the season, the team suffered two losses. Luck- ily (?) the accidents occurred on home territory. The first loss came when Steve Lawrence was tackled and knocked into the yard marker. He suffered a severe fracture. Philip Hood doubled the accident rate when he broke his knee during a game.

Teachers 173 Enlivening LHS with a little bit of variety Student teachers came to Latin, German, French and Sociology this year. They had to face testing by students as well as learn the ropes. Mrs. Irving and Mrs. Matthews were the two main substitutes again this year — adding new faces and variety to their classes. Mrs. Dooley spent one month substituting for Ms. Hays. The janitors cleaned while the friendly cafeteria ladies coo ked meals for the full and a la carte lines.

Business offers valuable skills Deep thought is required to use an adding machine properly and Mary Van Ness demonstrates such concentration. A new face in the Business De- partment was Ms. Baumgardner who took over Ms. Winfrey’s place while she was on her one year leave. Seventeen students participated in Cooperative Office Education and worked in offices in the afternoon part time as jobs. Both Steno II and Clerk operated the Lester Hill Corporation, which is a sim- ulated office project during second semester. The corpor- ation was a large distributor of institutional equipment and supplies. With Tallidata, a data processing company, the students ran the companies. Within classes, they wroked on individual business projects such as filing, record keeping, business machines, typing, data processing and payroll work. 180 Academics Making a picture on stencil looks confusing from here, but Donna Nicholas seems to know what she’s doing in Steno. Carefully punching those little buttons, Hilda Ayers works diligently on the assigned problems in class. In 6th period typing class, Carill Valentine and Mary Emore practice skills doing a vukky timed writing. Business 181 Students star in radio, TV shows The English department had four new faces along with new teaching ideas. The most recent was team teaching. Mr. Meeks, teaching English, and Mr. Carrere, Social Studies, combined their talents with a few eighth grade classes in the last semester. The classes produced a newspaper, radio, and closed circuit T. V. show. Team teaching proved to be successful. Independent study was experienced by Mrs. Brown’s sen- ior ‘A’ students. New books and filmstrips were helpful to students. Some students found pleasure in dramatizing plays while others enjoyed listening to cassettes with earphones on free reading days. The English department has greatly improved. Ms. Gilbert’s English 10 class sixth period including Nesa Henderson and Sherie Kyle fill in their workbooks. Research projects on biographies for English in the library keep Billy Stewart, John Hodges and Steve Grist studying. 182 Academics Dictionary skills have Ms. Newman’s fresh- man English class thumbing through Webster’s searching for etymologies. Vocabulary lists aren’t too interesting but riecessary for English. Sophomores check words in Mr. Clark’s first period. Seniors take notes in sixth period English on a poem analysis delivered by Ms. Jonnie Brown. English 183 The Specialized Areas Home Ec class cooks a lot. Peggy Martin. Pat Davis and Jean Tardy like the taste too! The Specialized Areas class sews as much as they cook. Some students and the faculty watch as Debbie Fitzgerald models. The Homemakers of the Future . . . A new face in the Home Economics department, Ms. Manning, teaches three new advanced courses. Both boys and girls may take Family Living and Occupational Food Services. Specialized Areas, an all girl course works in depth with foods and clothing. Ms. Dunlap has switched rooms for the first time with Ms. Manning and teaches in the right room. First, and second year Home Ec make their own garments and cook cakes, cookies and nutritional food. You can always be sure that there is something cooking in the Home Economics Department. “Building homes for the future.” 184 Academics After baking muffins, Delores Hostetter, Kim Davis and Gail Henderson wash up in Ms. Dunlap’s sixth period Home Ec class. Cutting out magazine pictures, Barbara Higgins, Lou Mohler and Mary Fitch work on their Home Economics projects. Home Economics 185 From Shakespeare’s Midsummers Night’s Dream Pyramus (Jeb Bvers) lies dead and Thisbe (Lexi Lacetti) mourns his death and prepares to die too, in Latin class. On one of the first days, Cynthia Saunders and Caroline Lacetti work exercises in French III class while Jane Roth rests. 186 Academics Food, fun and French “Love is ...” is simply one of the themes French students wrote on for Ms. Gilbert, Miss Williams’ second semester replacement. They also breakfasted in French and had projects on slogans and received new books. Vietnamese and Chinese were the subject of Ralph McIntosh’ talk to German classes. Ms. Dicken’s initiated independent study and contracts in her German and French classes. Mr. Hubbard, a W L student, observed and taught German. Latin students dramatized Plauters’ Pots of Gold, and The Haunted House. Translations of a variety of books from 300 BC to now, including the Vulgate (for the people) Bible were Latin V’s accomplishments. Fondue, made by Ms. Gilbert, fill French students Brenda Thomas, Cheryl Hostetter and Janice Campbell at a French breakfast. A few of the Latin students going to Rome look at pictures of Italy in their books with Ms. Weaver. Pondering over German grammar David Brogan translates a story for Mrs. Dickens. As Mr. Hubbard is using the room, inde- pendent study students confer in German with Mrs. Dickens in the hall.

Homework problems are the focus of sixth period Algebra IFs concentration excepting Clarence Moore who is distracted. Words of wisdom written by Susan Mc- Kemy are just one innovation in Calculus’ informal atmosphere created by the seven students and Mr. Stark or ‘Glark’. “To teach as many students as much good mathematics as pos- sible” is the endeavor of the Math Department according to chair- man Mr. Lauck. The two year Algebra X,Y program was one course that gave a knowledge of algebra to those who might not have taken it otherwise though there was a drop in the Y enroll- ment. Several students did out- standing work in math. Jimmy Sheridan placed second in a math rally at Radford competing with many western Virginia schools. The Mathematical Association of America test’s first place winner at LHS was Elaine Claar. Michael Boley, David Ashworth, Jan Gold- sten and Jack Donald studied Analysis over the summer to take Calculus in the fall. Mathematics 189 Girls’ Ensemble sports new outfits New red and white outfits brightened the appearance of the Girls’ Ensemble. Money was earned by a bake sale. In No- vember, the 38 members of con- cert choir attended an area work- shop to improve their skills. They performed for the Rotary at X-mas and the Trinity Methodist Church in April. The choir participated in the Junior-High District Festival in March. A busy summer for band members included pre-school rehearsals. The band performed a new half-time show at each home game. From the 66 member band, 6 students went to all regionals and 7 attended a band clinic in Moorehead, Kentucky. In May the band participated with Portland High in an exchange concert to Connecticut. Two concerts in January and May provided a chance for the band to show their talent. At the smoking porch, Ellen Sloane and Mike Lotts demonstrate their musical skills on the guitar for Bruce Wallace and Jimmy Floyd. The Concert Choir practices for March District Festival under the direction of Ms. Ryan. Vain attempts at removing a mouthpiece from her clarinet overshadowed, Lisa Boley laughs at a groggy band member wavering off-key. 190 Academics A guitar ensemble consisting of Janet Fultz, Steve Weeks and Andy Hickman prepares for the Christmas concert. Accompanied by David Huffman on drums and Pat McCrowell on cymbals, Dee Smith rehearses for concert band.

In the boys’ mobile, the guys in a PE 9 class wait loudly for the bell to end a period of valuable first aid training. I 192 Academics Building bodies and attitudes Driver’s Education in the mobile got off to a slow start. The books did not arrive until the first of November. While waiting for them, students kept busy studying the Virginia Driver’s Manuel and doing research on the problems of today’s drivers. The Physical Education Department toyed with the idea of getting trampoline but lack of space and the need for a supervisor made the project unreasonable for the present. A weight lifting equipment was added but won’t be used until next year. Ms. Adamson points out the different parts of an automobile’s engine to John Blasser as part of Behind the Wheel. The basketball rebounds off the backboard and soars through the air into Beth Slus- ser’s awaiting hands. Under his father’s and teacher’s super- vision, Stuart Brewbaker tries to qualify for the Presidential Physical Fitness Award doing pull ups.

In a biology lab, Karla Vest and Virginia Ray stain onion cells to distinguish the chromosomes in the cytoplasm. 194 Academics i In a volume experiment in the 8th grade science class, Debbie Wimes slowly pours Karo syrup into a graduated cylinder, measuring to exactness. % The Science department has offered students a variety of in- teresting courses to choose from. More students signed up for chem- istry. An aerospace education class was planned for next year. Extra curricular activities included a lecture on waves and wave motion by the physics department. The eighth grade visited the local airport to learn about aerodynamics and courses on computer program- ming were offered. More new experiments were tried out. Mr. Morrison’s biology classes had fun with their dry- sophilia genetics experiments, which translated into English means mating fruitflies. Mr. Bond’s enriched biology course tried experiments to determine the effect of the sewage treat- ment plant on the Maury River and it wasn’t so polluted after all. H2O, ecology, mitosis, density Science 195 Seniors serve as jurists It’s that time of the year again when all good seniors buckle down and begin the research for their government term papers. “How much have I done today?” wonders Mike Boley as he and Jimmy Sheridan work on their research projects. New texts in different contexts and presentations was big news in the Social Studies department. New faces included Ms. Doane, Mr. Redden and an assistant teacher Mr. Turk. Resource people ranging from state troopers to a lawyer enhanced classes. Seniors had the opportunity to serve as jurists for the W L law school. Eleven seniors partici- pated in the VMI mock U.N. debate and three won top honors. Many seniors voted for the first time. In World History students wrote, directed and acted in skits and enjoyed cultural dinners. Economic and eighth grade social studies classes studied occu- pations. The chairman of the department had an 8 lb. “World’s most perfect baby” on October 29th named Keltie Louise Hays. 196 Academics Reviewing the scripts for the skit to be performed in class, students from World History receive help from Mrs. Doane.

Senior members of the DE class, Judy Gordon, Skip Boesch, Cliff Via and John Rabe discuss management with Mr. Songer. Dimensional figures are created to the flow of Stephanie Leech’s pen in Mechanical Drawing second period. 198 Academics Industrial Arts builds bams Mechanical Drawing is the language of describing objects with draw- ings and dimensions. “Students worked at their own pace with individual attention from the teacher,” remarked Mr. Edwards, the instructor. Metal Classes transformed metal into hammers, lamps and wall placques. The construction class built a Dutch Barn (a storage shed) which involved carpentry, roofing and floor laying. 1st year Woodworking students were introduced to the use of hand tools and then applied this knowledge by making foot- stools. DE classes sold cleaner for Lexington Airport manager Lt. Coiner ex- plains the parts of an airplane engine to a money making project. the Mechanical Drawing class.

The first six weeks counted once, the second twice, the third three times and the exam once. This system brought up questions of fairness but is there a better system? The abolishment of second semes- ter exams was a never end- ing search for arguments on the part of seniors. The aver- age class size at Lexington is 21, which can be mislead- ing considering how many basic and advanced courses containing 7 or 8 students. The average student to teacher ratio was 18 to 1.

SCA-The 243 1974 — The year of the tiger A convenient lunch period provides Chuck Howell with the free time neces- sary to complete his Civics homework. An insider ' s view of David Deacon playing the chimes in one of the Scarlet Hurri- cane band concerts. 244 Closing Look again at 1974 — the year of the tiger. Astrology and horoscopes are no longer new but now a part of every day life. We laugh but still wonder at the mystery. The Exorcist??? Striving for identity in a fast moving world. Outlets result in self expression. Graffiti on desks, walls, bathrooms and books. American Graffiti ' 62 Lex- ington Graffiti 74. The work seems to pile up at the end of the semester. Why do teachers always give tests at the same time? Nothing ' s really changed! Reading and writing and ' rithmetic .... work continues. Class interruptions at least 2X a week. Ernie Ford come to the office Rumored to be the most popular man in the school. TIME stops for no one. Look again at the com- munity and world to which we all belong. Lexington is a college town. Virginia Mili- tary Institute, Washington and Lee University provide: Monday night swimming, wrestling, political speakers, art shows, musical, pro- grams, fraternity; Zollman ' s Pavilion and grain parties, lacrosse and other sports games, lifesaving; art and language classes and DATES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Big con- troversy over dating college men and interracial couples, JEALOUSY?? There was the best chance in a long time for world and Mideast peace, detente, SALT talks, $ devaluement and shuttle diplomacy. It was the Year of Kissinger. Mock UN de- bates along with trips to London and Rome brought students directly into con- tact with different cultures and with world awareness. The Government Field Trip to Washington caught our 6th District Representative Butler coming out of a cam- paign spending committee meeting. . . . Look again . . . Work seems to pile up on Brenda Clark just when the weather becomes nice enough to enjoy it. On a band trip, Lisa Rogers and Janice Coffey are amused by the jokes of Mike DeBoissiere. With a true sense of pride senior Steve Potter explains the devotion required to become an accomplished musician. Closing 245 Pep rally emotions run high for Mark Har- mison as Larry Campbell wonders whether to give Mark ' s sucker an even break. Fast action on the field holds the avid attention of Jeff Crowder, Rosa Mason and Kim Davis, but Timmy Smith finds photog- raphy more alluring. Freshman calculator Tommy Thalman fig- ures the right angles for Cosmopolitan ' s next issue during a break in Math 9. . . . Look again . . . Remember . . . watching the political comic strip Doonesbury gain national popularity. More and more we become a politically ori- ented society. Freudian psy- chology has slipped from national prominence and . been replaced by TA. Soci- ology students and their friends learn the new Trans- actional Analysis that ' even the layman can understand ' . Are you coming from your parent, adult or child?? I ' m okay, you ' re okay, too! The ' Shield ' died a slow death this year. Most of us looked back and were glad to see it go! There was ' More in 74 ' . Teacher baby boom hits LHS. Must have been something in the water! Tune in again to the dance and music scene 74. We looked back to the mid-40 ' s to reinstate Jitter- bugging . Everyone tried it out. What fun!! But 1974 was not to be outdone. So Flip Wilson invented the Bump ! Mysterious bruises were discovered on the hip vicinity, especially after the Government Field Trip. OUCH! — not so hard! We identified with world wide groups. It was the year Dooby Brothers sold out Roanoke Civic Center while we were there. Other pop- ular bands were: Allman Bros., TSOP, War, Sly and the Family Stone, Herbie Han- cock, etc. . . . On the local scene, students got together their own bands and music for the talent show. Daddy Rabbit was a favorite group. The new guitar ensemble with original compositions was an excellent addition to concerts on the LHS music scene. Band and chorus held their own as usual. Even the first band exchange trip ever was held with the band from Portland, Connecticut. Look again to the local scene. Rockbridge County is a typical farm community losing people. Down to 16,647 from 24,000 in 1972. Eighth grader Carol Ann Moorhead keeps her spirits up giving brawny football players the brush off. The smoking porch provides the cooling setting needed by guitarist Andy Hickman and Debbie Lam after a morning of hot classes. . . . ' Tm okay, you ' re okay, too . . . Behind the scenes SCA politicos, Lorie Miller, Todd Hamric, Judy Wise and Julie Duvall wait tor the appropriate moment to acclaim Peter Clayton as president elect. The art of fingertip control is mastered by auditor Peggy Brown on the bookkeeping machine. Closing 247 A pencil sharpener gathers junior John Brittigan ' s attention as he works on a Mechanical Drawing project. Tk Homework assignments are searched for as Steve Ferguson and Sandra Durham pre- pare to head home. A spring day and a cigarette — Karen Blackwell and Janet Conner lean against a mobile taking it all in. I said, ' Don ' t look Ethel; but it At the senior-faculty basketball game, Paul Tolley, Adeline Goldsten, David Feddeman and Todd Hamric observe. A little Elderberry wine anyone? Mr. Gibbs (Billy Coffey) attempts downing a glass flavored with arsenic in a play. was too late! ' LHS students help pro- duce the corn, hay, beef and dairy products which are the staples of Rock- bridge ' s present agricul- tural economy. It was the year of the question In- dustry vs. Agriculture — the year of the rezoning controversy in the county. Future Farmers of America is the largest club in the school. It con- tinues to grow while most other groups suffer from the wide lack of interest. Flowever, LHS still ranks higher than other area schools in club participa- tion, and overall spirit. Forensics was first in a district 3- way tie! Re- member the prom! While apathy has caused other schools to abolish this tradition, enthusiasm at LHS has jumped amaz- ingly. More Seniors at- tended than ever before in the history of the school. We continue looking back to the past. Nostalgia was the theme of Homecoming — the only dance alumnae may attend. Crime and poor behavior experienced an upward trend. Foul lan- guage becomes more prevalent. A thief breaks into the school store and through the wall of the vault. Arsons burn down the prop room and mobile units. A $250 re- ward is offered for infor- mation. On the other hand the actions of the minority don ' t hold for the majority! So we move on and look quickly at the local scene to Lexing- ton city. Somehow 10,000 citizens and students were scrounged up (some post mortum a grave rumor has it) to make Lexington a legal city. It is still nowheres- ville — not really though sometimes it can get a bit dull, boring, tedious, etc. It lays claim to a lot of Civil War history. In contemplation of the softball game on the hill during lunch Dora Brown squints to see the action. © LEXINGTON HIGH SCHOOL CODE OF HONOR I WILL Be HONEST IN TAKING ALL TESTS AND EXAMINATIONS.

Cheryl Mackey and Val Cooper share a step on the smoking porch as they wait for the bell. Carol Bryant shows avid concentration on the standardized tests eighth graders are required to take at the beginning of each year. 250 Closing Lexington is, also, one of the fifty safest cities in the USA. Everything closes up at the 11 o ' clock curfew, there is a five year plan implemented by city manager, John Doane, to make the town into an even more beautiful tourist center situated, as always, in the gorgeous Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. Some LHS southern belles staff Lee chapel, Jackson Home and the Information Center. We are aware of our (Scotch Irish) heritage. Surprises erupt on the national sports scene. Boys mysteriously dis- appear on autumn Sunday afternoons to enjoy the Na- tional Pastime. It was the year of WFL emergence on the football scene. Students disapprove. Why run a good thing into the ground Look again at the amazing phenomena: the basketball king, UCLA broke its winning streak and actually lost games. Lexing- torfis usually runner-up in basketball — we just can ' t quite make it to the top of the heap. If at first you don ' t succeed, persevere! This is the way it was 1974. It was a year of disappoint- ments, notably the lack of brilliance in Kahoutek ' s comet; a year of mystery — whatever happened to the movie on Stonewall Jack- son?; a year of retrospection, we looked again at our ideals, government, morals, dance styles, clothes, and area. Our objective was to incorporate the old and the new, to renovate, renew, • refresh, revive and repair. We are the result of the tur- bulent sixties. We are the young in a youth oriented society. We are now, what we are in this book, that we by now have had time to flip through. It is our memory and keepsake for 1973-1974. After all — this is the way it was . . . This is the way it was — LHS 1974 The Bump was a big feature of the senior picnic. Ms. Doane and Ms. Hays get in on the action.
