Lowndes High School - Munin Yearbook (Valdosta, GA)

Text from Pages 1 - 216 of the 1975 volume:

During the explorations of the Vikings, courage, adventure, and challenge were dominant traits of these proud, fierce people. Conquest was pursued by two ravens, Munin and Hugin. Since Munin represented memory, it is an appropriate name for the Lowndes High Yearbook. The spear and shield symbolized bravery and strength. These characteristics, combined with fond memories, remain essential to the true Viking Spirit.

Debbie Woodsend Diane Wright Ila Wright Jeanette Wright Veronica Wright Gilbert Zipper Bubby Wisenbaker Mary Woods Sophomores Experience Successful Year As the Sophomore class of 1975 arrived at Lowndes High School, it was apparent that they were a new breed of Vikings. Not only could they be heard at the pep rallies, but they were also the lead supporters in the America Bicentennial campaign at LHS. The sophomores also showed they were something special when several made the varsity athletic teams - from the fast arm of powerful Lynn Pattillo, the high jump of Willie Bradley, the defensive foot- work of Rosiland Williams, the hard tackles of Ricky Mashburn, the smooth jump shot of Faye Hart, to the vicious forearm of Buddy Moor. So in everything from bicentennial posters to junior varsity cheerleaders, the Class of 77's first year at LHS was successful� SOPHOMORE CLASS CABINET: 1st ROW (1-r): Miss Barbara Singletary, sponsor, Marsha Tomlinson, secretary, Robin George, treasurer, Cindy Todd, vice-president, Gerry Ferguson, president 2nd ROW (1-r): Pam Bennett, John Young, Ken Leggett, Craig Roberts, Jeff Bower, Paula Montgomery, Carolyn Storey, Darlene Brannen, Cindy McGowen 3rd ROW (1-r): Wade Courson, Ruby Romaine, Robin Wilson, Stacy Elmer, Gail Folsom, Donna Lavern, Michele Mitch, Kathy Nussbaum, Sherry Croft, Shelia Duckworth, Tina Dasher, David Johnson 4th ROW (1-r): Carrie Hogan, Brian Ward, Mike Thronall, Mark Jagietski, Jill Banks, Susan Bartley, Scott Bragg 5th ROW (1-r): Lunell Simmons, Shelia Robinson, Trisha Garnto, Kelly Hobbs, Sheri Bennett, Cathy Culpepper, Cynthia Ganes, John Folsom, Joe Griggen, Marcy Washington 162 Randy Aeree Becky Adochio Jimmy Alexander Jimmy Amiot Cynthia Anderson Jo Ann Anderson Jesse Andrews Evelyn Arrington Bert Atkinson Phillis Bailey Anita Baker Heneritte Banks Jill Banks Dale Barger Susan Barrs Susan Bartley Steve Bass Elaine Batchelor Dorothy Battle Louise Battle Jeff Bauer Rodney Beal Pat Bedone 163 Nathaniel Belcher 164 Bobby Bennett Greg Bennett Pam Bennett Sherry Bennett Wayne Bennett Brenda Berrien Gloria Berrien Stephanie Berrien Diane Best Mike Betha Laverne Bines Mary Ann Biles Joyce Blake Debbie Blanton Katrina Blanton Pam Blanton Robert Blanton Teresa Blanton Tony Bono Jeanette Booth Jack Bounds Willie Bradley Mike Brady Larry Brags Darlene Branner Cog Brightwell Jimmy Brigman Ernest Brown Robert Brown Sherry Brown Michael Browning Kelly Burke Jenny Buckhalter Bret Cantrell Louie Carrott Annie Mae Carter Becky Carter Sherry Carter Joan Clark Danny Clayton Keith Cloud Chris Coleman Cathy Collier John Collins Gina Cone 165 Darlene Cooper Jeff Cooper Amy Cooper Luke Corbitt Eve Cornelius Wade Courson Mason Cottington Nelda Cottington Beverly Cowart Stan Cowart Sherry Croft Delores Crum Cathy Culpepper Tina Dasher Clay Daughtery Jeff Daughtery Sandy Davenport Beth Davis Betty Davis Kim Davis Teresa Davis Steve Deacon Freddie Delk Look at the birdie!
