MAHISCO 1973 Madison High School Parramore Sheet Madison, Florida Volume 29 LIFE: An Endless Struggle to Discover the World Around You Surrounded by Personal and Globe-Sized Problems, We Realize Thai We Have No Control Over What Has Been, Only What Is to Be Each of Us Searches for the Answers in His Own Way 9 Express How You Feel in These Changing Times There are places I'll remember all my life, though some have changed, some forever, not for better, some have gone, and some remain. All these places had their moments, with lovers and friends I still can recall, some are dead and some are living, in my life I've loved them all. — Beatles 15 When you're down and troubled and you need a helping hand and nothing is going rigjht, . . . just call out my name and soon I will be there . . . you've got a friend! Loneliness crys deep in my soul. Keeps trying to tell me about the world growing so cold . . . You are a child of the universe. No less than the trees and the stars, you have a right to be here. And whether you realize it or not, the universe is unfolding as it should! . . . We have inherited a 'world house. ’ A family unduly separated in ideas, culture, interest, who because we can never again live apart must learn somehow to live in peace. Martin Luther King Some people see things as they are and say why. I dream things that never were and say why not. Robert F. Kennedy When have you ever tried? Really reaching out for the other side! . . . . . .You’ve got to get up every morning with a smile on your face and show the world all the love in your heart! . . . Reach out in the darkness and you might find a friend! Things get a little easier once you understand !!! Communication is the beginning of understanding! I get by with a little help from my friends. We Are the Now Generation REACHING OUT!! Try not to get worried. Try not to turn to problems that upset you. Oh! Don't you know everything's alright. Yes, everything's fine . . . Within you is a stillness and sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time and be yourself. Holy Jesus, won't you let your love seize us! Help us find sweet peace within. 16 ACTIVITIES It is true, I never assisted the sun materially in its rising; but, doubt not, it was of the last importance only to be present at it. David Thoreau Cougar Homecoming Week - 1972 Even bulletin boards get things together! Crackling logs of blazing fire add excitement to the Cougar fans. Clay Schnitker doing his Cowboy, Bill Raines, holds up the Indians in the Junior's exciting ing! skit. 18 Hopping around in the bag are Karen Strickland and Tom Waddail. We've Got It ALL Together New! New! New! would have been an appro- priate theme for the 1972 Cougar Homecoming. This year, for the first time, the queen was crowned during the halftime activities instead of in a formal corona- tion in the gym. Reigning over the festivities was Martha Raines who was crowned by Ernest Brown, Student Council President. Her attendants were Patricia Herring, Sr.; Faye Corbin, Jr.; and Cheryl Burgess, Soph. This year the girls were allowed to sign up to run on their own, without sponsorship. They were then voted on by the student body and the winner was announced during pre-game activities. Another first was the bonfire and snake-dance on Wednesday instead of the traditional Thursday. Skit Day, Blue Jeans Day, and Spirit Day all readied stu- dents for the all important clash between the Cougars and Georgia's ninth ranked team, Thomasville Central. ■■ Skit day finds the Sophomores exhibiting their unusual talents. 19 Annual Staff strikes up another original! Peace signs and happy faces are prominent during Homecoming. Smiling at the crowd are Mr. and Miss Cougar, Debbie Latner and Carl Sims. To get the news fastest. Paw Prints carry their equipment everywhere. SEATED: Faye Corbin, Martha Banks, Patricia Herring. Cheryl Burgess. STANDING: Ernest Brown, Bill Raines, Paul Edenfield, Mack Alexander, Vernon Davis. Faye Corbin - Junior Patricia Herring - Senior Television Shows Take The Brass Reed, a newly formed band, surprised the audience with their musical talent. Senior Class Vice-President, Debbie Latner en- joyed the privilege of hosting the humorous and en- tertaining skits and solos that made up the 1973 Senior Follies. Included among the various performances were: Patrica Herring and LaVerne Wyche who sang: and Sharon James reciting a poem; Bill Raines on the piano; and The Brass Reed. All who participated were well awarded with ap- plause from the audience. 24 'Sweet Inspirations came from Pat Herring and LaVerne Wyche. Over Senior Follies!! Reciting poems for a captive audience is Sharon James. Vice- President and Mistress of Ceremonies Debbie Latner, takes a break. Bill Raines displays his musical ability. 25 Chrisfmas in Mexico Christmas in Mexico was the theme of the Spanish Club's Christmas Program presented to the student body on December 15. The program consisted of Christmas songs sung in Spanish; a dialogue of a poor family's Christmas; and a portrayal of the Pasadas procession, a traditional Mexican festivity. The program was ended with the customary game of break the Pifiata, a bag that can be filled with anything from goodies to water. 26 Name It and They Will Do It Laveme and Charles enjoy a game of shuffleboard. Lydia uses her time to catch up with her reading. Benjamin seems to have it all wrapped up with his hands of cards. This was the second consecutive year that the students of Madison High have had the pleasure of ac- tivity period. It was held each Tuesday and Thursday from 11:10 to 11:40. The Students engaged in various activities around the school campus, such as basketball, volley- ball, table tennis, horseshoes, shuf- fleboard. On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, the students were given a ten minute break between third and fourth period. However, stu- dents were not allowed to leave the school grounds. 27 Books and Crooks Combine a pair of crooks (one of which is the exact double of the principal), high school romance, a principal who hides his good nature by yelling at his nervous sec- retary or by cracking down on students for minor infractions of rules, a lively student body and involved parents. Mix all in- gredients well. The result is a situation which gives insight to some of the unac- ademic pursuits of high school students, and an evening of great fun for cast and audience alike. The Junior Class used this recipe on March 27, and the results were side splitting. Now you see it . . . Now you don't. How will Mr. Henley . . . OOPS . . . Prof. . . get out of this one? 28 The Curious Savage Fairy Mae, Florence, Hannibal, and Jeffery peep through the key hole to see when the doctor arrives. Sam gives Fairy Mae and Florence some good advice. Mrs. Savage refuses to tell where the money is hidden. Mrs. Paddy spouts off again. This year's Seniors put on John Patrick's comedy The Curious Savage. Mary Frances Hill played the leading role as Mrs. Savage. Mrs. Savage has been left ten million dollars by her husband, and she wants to make the best use of it, but her stepchildren want the money too. They have Mrs. Savage committed to a sanitorium. When it is time for her to leave, she doesn't want to leave. In the end she is given a farewell party. 29 Second Annual 30 Why does she have to rub it in? Pie Throw Blast!! It really tastes good, doesn't it Mrs. Barrs! ZAP - A pie flies through the air and finds its target on some un- lucky teacher's or student's face. Students and teachers volunteer- ed to have a pie thrown at them. The faculty and student body en- thusiastically bid for pies and much laughter was heard when one was bought and thrown. This event, sponsored by Annual staff, helped to open the communication gap between the faculty and students. Thoughts of grades and minor frustrations disappeared as students and faculty reached out to each other in an atmosphere of togeth- erness! Getting it off isn't the easiest thing to do . . . Bill, a towel helps! 31 Mag. Sales Finance Prom The 1972 Junior Class Magazine sale, after a slow start and an extra week of selling, net- ted the class $2091.04. The sale began September 12 and continued through October 6. Many new and different prizes were offered to industrious salesmen. Proceeds from the drive were used to finance the Junior-Senior Prom. High salesman was Scanlon McCain who sold a grand total of $150.00. Scanlon admires his new strobe light. Missionary to Africa Speaks Dr. Evans discusses typical life in Africa. Dr. and Mrs. Harry Evans, former mission- aries to Africa, spoke at a special session at the Madison High Library, November 7. Dr. Evans discussed many aspects of life in Africa - political, cultural, and religious. He also presented a display of African cultural objects. Students listen willingly to Dr. Evan’s interesting lecture. ATHLETICS In this fresh evening each blade and leaf looks as if it had been dipped in an icy liquid greenness.

At 10:00 they walked off proud after proving that they could compete and win in high school football by defeating Hamilton County 14-0 and Taylor County 7-0. With confidence in themselves, the enthusiastic Cougars plunged headlong into the regular season. However, except for the 66-0 humiliation of Jack- sonville Tech and a 7-0 win over Marianna, 1972 was a season of disappointment. There were many close games, but in the end, mistakes and inexper- ience were the downfall of the Cougars. Playing one of the stiffest schedules in the district, including two of the state's contenders from Florida and one from Georgia, the Cougars learned about high school football the hard way. With eight Sen- iors leaving and nineteen lettermen returning, the Cougars will definitely be back. 34 Rough Reason Tom Waddail, Marvin Townsend, B. M.

C. Aikens. With only three players returning from last year's squad inexperience and lack of depth plagued Coach Wilcox and his cagers throughout the 72-73 season. Several times during the season the Cougars saw a large lead diminish as they were worn down in the final moments. However unimpressive this year's record might have been, it only reflected the strength of their op- ponents. Such teams as Rickards, Bucholz, and Live Oak made up this season's schedule. Although no one enjoys losing, the season was brightened by victories over every member of the Florida Crown Conference and cross-county rival, Greenville. A. C.

Cougars as they began what everyone hoped would be an outstanding season. Though mighty in size and team spirit the J.V. team was repeatedly outdone by its opponents. Even though the season was al- together not a good one, the J.V. served its purpose. It gave the football players coming to high school an opportunity to play and gave the coaches a chance to look at the new crop advancing to var- sity.

After losing the first two games of the season, the Madison High J.V. Basketball team got it together and started playing victoriously to end their season in a very rewarding way, with a winning record. Showing they could compete against teams of greater height and more depth on the bench, by having great desire and drive to be victor- ious. Looking forward to next year when they will be able to show their finesse and ability while they parti- cipate against varsity competition, the J.V.'s ended their season.

M. Reeves, Mark Crutcher. Love of competition and a strong drive to win molded a track team that represented the finest Mad- ison High had to offer. With great Senior leadership and many enthusias- tic underclassmen, Madison Track showed strength and improvement in all events. Coach Ray found it easier to spread his time around with the help of stu- dent coach assistants from N.F.J.C. This year's track team proved unique by allowing ninth-graders from the Middle School and girls to participate. These additions gave a new dimension to track and introduced much new talent.

With six players returning from last year's squad and many more outstanding athletes participating in volleyball, the 1973 baseball team represented Mad- ison High well. Pitting their outstanding fielding and batting abil- ity against such teams as Live Oak, Florida High, Jasper, Perry, Macclenny, Santa Fe, and Monticello, the Cougars were faced with a challenging schedule. This year was the first year that ninth graders were allowed to participate in Madison High sports, and many took the opportunity to prove their ability to participate in varsity sports.

Philippians 4:13 Our athletes seemed to have rec- ognized the fact that more than the coaches, players, cheerleaders, and fans help to win or play a game well. In realizing this, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes was formed. Their purpose was mainly to confront athletes and coaches, and through them, the youth of the nation, with the challenge and adventure of fol- lowing Christ and serving him through the fellowship of the church and in their vocations.

You shall walk where only the wind has walked before. Nancy Newhall Annual Staff Finally we can rest, Those were the words heard in February when the last annual deadline was met. We were beginning to won- der if we would make it - between all the fun and our many disagree- ments we had. Our staff was well equipped this year with fresh ideas and willing hands along with the addition of sophomores to the staff for the first time. The whole staff wish to extend their best wishes for the Seniors in the coming year. Left to Right: Joann Cherry, Business Manager; Mary Frances Hill, Editor; Susan Hinton, Photographer.

This year the club was very active. The Beta Club entered a car in the Homecom- ing Parade with Mr. and Miss Cougar. They sold refreshments during Homecoming activities for their money projects. Also, they brightened the main hall with colorful bulletin boards. During Teacher Appreciation Week, they made a hit with the teachers by providing refreshments in the teachers lounge each day. They designed and financed the display case in the entrance hall of the school, and planted spring flower gardens, and sponsored beautification of school projects.

They marched in the Pine Tree Festival Parade this year and also participated in many parades and other festivities in the Big Bend Area. They held their an- nual Christmas Concert in December with the Choruses. The Marching Cougars are looking forward to an even more exciting and active new year.

They assisted Mrs. Tucker in presenting many oppor- tunities for exploring and discovering new dimensions of life along with assisting fellow students in using the books, filmstrips, films and periodicals, and as- sisting teachers with the A. V. equipment. The Library Council provided fine art prints for the class- rooms. An innovation this year was the Activity Table which contained educational games for use throughout the day.

To start the year off they sold sub- scriptions and ads to pay for the cost of printing the first semester. Second semester die paper was given to students free of charge. Activities of the staff included MHS Top Ten , a list of the ten favorite records of the students. An extra addition was color to the Christmas issue. To cover the price of this students were encour- aged to have their names printed on the Merry Christmas From:” page. News coverage was intensified by the creation of specialized editors - features, sports, and news. Even now those pens, pencils, and typewriters are still going.

For their money project in November, the F.H.A. conducted a cleaner sale in which the club made a pro- fit of $40. The climax of the year's activities was the Fashion Show which was held on April 12. The fashions and models were from the Ad- vanced Class as well as other sewing classes. 65 Student Council Swings Student government is only one of the functions of the Student Council. This year they served as ushers at Open House, and they planned and coordinated the 1972 Homecoming activities. They assisted the Administration with dis- pensing cokes at the Christmas Party and oper- ated the concession stand for all home basket- ball games. Perhaps their most important function was assisting in establishing better relations between students and faculty. With a united school, Madison High will be able to bring into actual- ity such goals as a greater amount of student and faculty involvement in extra curricular activities.

Music, Mu sic, Mu sic Students and faculty were treated to several con- certs during activity period in the auditorium. At open house, visitors and parents were greeted with numbers done by the mixed chorus. The mixed cho- rus attended fall and spring concerts to observe other choruses and directors in action. They ventured to Tallahassee several times during the term for the same purpose. The mixed chorus consists of the Female Chorus, Male Chorus, and the Concert Chorus. They came together many times during the year and did joint performances as well as separate ones. The highlight of the year was the Christmas Con- cert wherein the Chorus joined the band in a festive commemoration of the holiday. Mr. Welton, director, and Mr. Brown get together on plans for the Christmas Concert. 69 Tom Wat Kits Net Future Business Leaders of Amer- ica accomplished many things this year, with a membership of 20 and sponsored by Mrs. Carolyn Edwards and Mrs. Evelyn Pulliam.

This was the motto of the Black Studies Club formed to go along with the Black Studies class. Oily students in the class were allowed to join BSC this term. The main goal of BSC was to contribute to the Sickle Cell Anemia research and funds as much as possible. During Black History Week the members put on a variety of programs with the aid of other interested students. BSC also made contributions in many ways to other minorities and community affairs in the immediate area. The motto was one of the things that held them together. Right On, and Peace, BSC.

Our scientists will one day make that famous journey somewhere. They have been to many places and listened to various lectures to prepare them. Ecology was one of their interests this year along with plain science. To further their study of Ecology they went to the Withlacoochee River to make various tests on the wa- ter involving pollution. Also they participated in the re- cycling of alluminum project. They were visited by a bac- teriologist who discussed the effects of harmful bacteria on foods. On December 6 they watched the launching of Apol- lo 17 from Cape Kennedy. At open House they presented experiments for the interests of the visitors.

David Thoreau Something Old; Something New Madison High School began the 1972-1973 school year with a number of changes. One of these is the new School Superintendent, Eugene Stokes. After many years of service to MHS, Mr. Griffin Bishop stepped down. Principal Joe Worden stayed with us as some of our teach- ers; others have retired and new' ones have re- placed them. Together, the staff, principal and superintendent work to provide a good ed- ucation for Madison High School students. MR. EUGENE STOKES Superintendent Time is very important to Mr. Worden. 86 Old friends help each other. Guidance Department Lends Helping Hand Mr. Sam Middleton has a friendly smile, even when he's working. New materials always help Mrs. Cherry guide students to their goal. Another new element added to MHS staff was Mr. Sam Middleton, Activities Director. He, along with Mrs. Lucille Cherry and Coach Ronald Peterson, was always busy with prob- lems of personal and impersonal importance to students. MHS guidance department will help any student who is willing to ask for it. Sometimes a firmer hand can help students, right. Coach Pete? Office Assistants Are a Must!! Mrs. Hammock, Coach Pete's secretary, takes care of the office work for Coach Pete. It seems like there is always something for Mrs. Chancey to type. Mrs. Smith gets help from Danny Bish with an IBM machine. Copying machines save time for Mrs. Plain. Office Assistants have many and varied duties that keep Madison High School ready for anything. Typing, filing, and running IBM machines are just a few of these duties. Their patience, cooperation, and understand- ing provide the glue that holds the school together. Mrs. Moore is our newest addition to the office staff. Business Classes MISS BARBRA SPARKS Gen. Bus. 1, Bus. Law, Bus. Math, Personal Typing I MRS. CAROLYN EDWARDS Bookkeeping, Shorthand I, VOE Provide Securify For Fuiure Preparing a student to meet the challenge of a business office is the goal of the Business Department. The work area was set up to look like an office and papers were produced ready for the boss. ” When the students are ready to become secretaries and bookkeepers, they will be more familiar with the office. MRS. EVELYN PULLI AM Typing I and II, Personal Typing I and II 89 Communication Co unis MRS. HOPE TUCKER Librarian COACH JAMES RAY Spanish I and II, Black History Communication skills included a number of courses from Humani- ties to Spanish. This wide range of selection has made communica- tion easier for everyone to get in- volved . Remedial work for students with special problems was a new devel- opment in the Communication De- partment. Through this variety of choices, each student had the op- portunity to develop his individual potential. 90 MR. WALLACE HOLMES Special Education MRS. GORDON FAUGHT American Lit., Journalism MRS. CAROLYN JUNIOUS American Lit., Basic English, Speech And they're offl With a bound the Sci- ence department was off to a new year. Ex- periments tried and proven, theories made, and hypotheses disproved were all a part of the year. To some students, science and its workings were old hat, but to the newly arrived sopho- mores the wonders of science were new and amazing. The sophomores were really surprised when the Chem. Lab. class made natural dyes out of such things as: pecan bark, jasmin leaves, and moss. For fun and knowledge, students went on field trips to Cape Kennedy and the Withlacoo- chee River. Also, some teachers required special pro- jects to be entered in the Science Fair. All in all, in spite of, or maybe because of, many mistakes the year was a success. MRS. SHARON FLETCHER Biology I and II, BSCS Biology MR. LARRY ALDERMAN Chemistry I and II, Chemistry Lab, Physics 93 Social Studies We're the now generation and the Social Studies department moved out in '72 to meet the needs of today's students. The Black Studies class, taught by Coach Ray, and the Comparative Government Class, taught by Miss Campbell, were innovations of the year. American History also took a new turn. Instead of the old chronological ap- proach, the topical approach was used with an emphasis on how the past has affected, as well as relates to, the present. As in the years past, Mrs. Argenbright used a number of outside speakers to broaden the scope of her classes. Also, operant condition- ing was vividly demonstrated to the Psychology classes at Marineland, Florida in October. This was just one of the field trips which proved that learning can be fun. MISS GRACE CAMPBELL American History, World History COACH F1KE Sociology A Maze of Maihemaiics MRS. SYLVIA CATRON Math II, Alge- bra I and II, Trig. Amaze! In Math? Business math, geometry, algebra, pre- calculus, computer math. They all make up a never-ending maze of problems. This circle has existed since early times. Mrs. Lois King, better known as Mama King, and Mrs. Sylvia Catron brought light on these often confusing courses. They taught modern methods of solving problems. There was a math course for al- most everyone’s needs. MRS. LOIS KING Algebra I, Geometry, Math II 96 Drivers Educaiion Promotes Qafe Driving Mrs. Julia Turner pointed out in plain language that the foolish driver is likely to be the one to die on the roads, while the informed driver has a better chance on the highway. Driver’s Ed. was programmed to better inform stu- dents of the hazards of the highway. Watching out for other people and their mistakes could prevent these young people from serious accidents. Vocaiional Agriculiure Focuses on Abiliiy Agricultural Science presents the objectives for developing individuals who are preparing for the cultivation of land and the growing of crops. Mr. David Smith always has time for the boys and their individual problems. This training makes Mr. Smith a favorite with the Vo. Ag. Boys. 97 Home Economics: Homes for fhe Fufure Students who wanted to improve their knowledge of homemaking were provided with practical informa- tion in the Home Ec. Department. Efforts have been made in this school year to make the Home Economics program more exciting. A new instructor, Mrs. Monteze Barrs and her new program helped students become expert seamtresses. Experi- ences shared between men and women in their mar- ried life and how to handle them were taught by Mrs. Marybelle James. Better homes and better relation- ships provide a basis for the family.

Mr. Lowell Brown Band Director The Music Department provided students with experience and knowledge of modern music tech- niques in a variety of ways. The Chorus made sev- eral field trips to observe what other choruses were doing. Also, they provided the entertainment at Open House and joined the band for the Christmas Concert, which was a highlight of the first semester. The half-time show at the football games had a new look, since the Cougar Marching Band had almost doubled its size from last year. In January the following students were chosen to participate in the first annual District Two Honor Band in Tal- lahassee: Rachel Hughey, Flute; Shannon Primm, Oboe; Katrina Aikens, Clarinet; Jerome Nicholson, Tenor Sax; Stuart Bevis, Baritone Sax; Clay Schnitker, Trumpet; Ralph Gray, Trombone; Glen Isgro, Trom- bone; Leslie Haskel, Drums. Again in the Spring, the Band joined the Chorus for the Spring Concert which was held in May, and concluded the year by performing at Graduation. 99 Showing their talents are our music leaders.

Miss Benjamin Physical Education Good Food and a Clean Campus Sometimes amid the activities of the school year the work of the Maintenance department was forgot- ten. These people worked hard to provide us with a good meal and a clean campus. We wish to express our gratitude to the Maintenance department for con- tinuing their different duties.

From the time the students hit the doors of Madison, the Sophomores had to readjust to the strenuous activity of walking up and down the staircase; then the fun of fighting the intersection traffic jams. Once they discovered that some of their new found freedom was just a beginning, the sophomores settled down to becoming a class that Madison could be proud of.

Three years ago, Suwannee River High and Madison High combined to form a new Madison High School. Entering as sophomores in 1970, the class of '72 is the first graduating class to have been through the new Madison High School. Having successfully confronted the problems and overcome the challenges of a new school, they have emerged victorious as Seniors! Although three years of constant learning and activity have come to an end, the Seniors will carry with them the memories of their high school years and will meet the challenges of the adult world with a sense of pride and achievement. 127 Leaders of Tomorrow: Class of '73 William Daniel Adams Elbert Aikens, Jr. Martha Raines Banks Robbie Gail Agner Robert Lamont Aikens Charles Edward Barrett Wesley Cole Agner, Jr. Mike Alexander, Jr. Roy Ellis Bass, Jr. 128 MARY ANN BELLFLOWER BOWEN DANIEL BISH RANDALL HENDRY BISHOP JAMES THOMAS BLAND NAT HARRISON BLAND TIMOTHY DANIEL BLANTON After a hard day's work at school, Karen Swift has her rest. 129 Tommy Brinson instructs Billy Livingston.

The Key to Understanding Is Knowledge Bill Primm, VALEDICTORIAN In order to reach out to the world, one must first be fortified with knowledge. Thus a high level of scholarship as is represent- ed by the posts of Valedictorian and Salutatorian of a high school class, is an important step in the search for truth and understanding. The faculty, student body, parents, and the community offer congratulations in this milestone of the lives of Bill and Wayne. May they continue to seek know- ledge so that they might help open doors that develop the higher goals of humanity. Wayne Brown, SALUTATORIAN Reach for the stars! 147 Ouisfanding Seniors of fhe Class of '73 Citizenship, scholarship, lead- ership, sportsmanship, and service to the school were the criteria used in the selection of the most outstanding Seniors. These ex- ceptional Seniors were selected as worthy of special recognition by both the faculty and their classmates. As always, honor and reponsibility go hand in hand.

SR 53 Madison, Florida As your yearbook comes to a close, the Ma- hisco staff of 72-73 would like to express our sincere appreciation to all those who had a part in making our yearbook what it is. Without all of you, we would have never fulfilled our dead- lines and all our goals for the yearbook. The major part of our last minute pictures were taken and developed by Mr. Charles Swain. For this we are eternally grateful. Mr, Swain spent quite a bit of his time and energy just to help us in any way he could. Without his deeply appreciated help, our yearbook would have had many empty pages. To Mr. Worden goes a big thank you for all the time spent in listening to the many problems that arose during the days spent toiling over preparation for our yearbook. Also, we would like to thank him for helping us make the big decisions that came our way. Two photographers who deserve credit for many of our pictures are Mr. George Hobbs and Mr. Garner Walker, our Olan Mills representa- tives. To Mr. Jim Bolin, our Taylor Publishing Co. representative, we say thank you for being here to answer our many questions. We would also like to thank the entire student body for their cooperation and enthusiasm in helping us with pictures and necessary information. Fin- ally, to the faculty, the Mahisco staff wishes to say thanks for letting us get by with the many interruptions and the borrowing of students from classes. 195 An Inside Look . . Where's a grease pencil? How do you spell ’priviledge’? There's a dictionary right there, stupid, look it up! Hey, the mailtruck caught on fire yesterday! Omagosh! Do you suppose that’s where our pictures are? Now, where's Mary Frances? Has anybody seen the cougar picture? Somebody think me up a caption for this picture. Hey, I like that. I'm missing a picture for my layout. I need 3 pictures! Call Mr. Swain!” Is it really just 2 days 'til the final deadline? Whew! We made it.

Leah Swift, Mary Ann Bellflower, and Annie Gervie CURRICULUM 198 Dedication The Mahisco '73 is dedicated to the hope that all people everywhere will learn to reach out - to accept people for what they are on the inside and not for race or nationality, and to reach for the highest possible goals attainable. We hope that in leaving Madison High, you will do so with an open mind, ready to hear both sides of every instance, willing to try and change cruelty and injustice to peace and un- derstanding whenever you may find it. REACH OUT!! It's hard to sit down and write a closing for any type of writing, but when it also closes a chapter in your life, that makes it even harder. There were times when everything seemed to go wrong and all of us felt like throwing the entire Mahisco out the win- dow, but the satisfaction of knowing that your own style of handiwork was going to be published, easily made up for the frayed nerves and sleepless nights. 1 would personally like to thank all of the staff for their hard work and cooperation and Mrs. Eloise Barrs for being there when we needed her. I sincerely hope that each of you will be able to remember what 1973 meant to you as you look at the MAHISCO ten years from now. As Seniors, we of the Class of '73” will always remember. Good Luck!
