Graves Embrology Competition was keen among the eighty-four entries in the Science Fair. The projects were an outgrowth of their classes and gave the students first hand knowledge of the way the scientist solves his problems everyday. Each stu- dent designed his study or project, executed the study, col- lected data, and finally evaluated what he had learned. This gallery of winners describes the variety and the sophis- tication of the entries. L. Everett Harmonograph D. Remey Shrimp Hatching D. Sasnett Hurricane Generator PHYSICAL SCIENCE WINNER C.

Terhune ATHLETICS COUGARS START BIG, WINNING FIRST TWO GAMES 1. Marvin Townsend stops up the hole. 2. Vernon Davis on the give to A. C. Aikens. 1. Bill Barrs slips in and drops an opponent behind the line. 2. A drive was thwarted when Calvin Turner stole a Clay County pass. The final victory was won and the pads came off for the last time - so ended the 1973 football season. It will be a full year before the Cougars return to the gridiron. However unimpressive their final record was, the Cougars finished over the . 500 mark in what was considered one of the toughest schedules in the AA classification. The success of the Cougars cannot be attributed to tremendous size, strength, or speed, but to their great desire to win as a team. Losing only 11 Seniors, the Cougars have re-established a winning tradition at Madison High. MADISON HIGH SCHOOL COUGARS VARSITY ROSTER 1973-74 No. Name Position Grade 11 V. Davis QB-DB 11 15 R.

Jackie McQuay rounds end as Doug Cantrell leads blocking. 2. Cougars score and Stanley Simmons signals the touchdown. 1. Phillip Arnold goes up for a layup. 2. Cougars show good defense. Junior Varsity sports this year were a series of exciting and disappointing moments. Many times the jayvees saw a lead diminish in the last minutes of a game and result in a dishearting loss. These young athletes have no cause to worry, for Junior Varsity is only a period of preparation for Varsity competi- tion and there will be many more contests other times for these young men to prove themselves. v BOTTOM ROW; H.

When the Cougar basketball team entered the 1973-74 team season they were a question mark. They were a team composed mainly of juniors who had mounted a very success- ful season the year before in junior varsity play, however, they were inexperienced in varsity competition. And in the early part of the season the inexperience showed and it looked like they were in for a bad season, but then they came on strong, real strong, and ended up with great, winning season. Since only three players graduate this year who knows how high this team may go next BOTTOM ROW: Bucky Christ- mas , coach; J. Moore, F. Davis, J. Alexander, manager; L. Haynes, L.

The boys' dogged determination showed as they practiced every day after school and also on weekends. The hard work paid off as the team competed with other schools in the area in the fields of running, high jump, broadjump, hurdles, shot, and discus. BASEBALL TEAM REBUILDS IN 1974 1.

Intramurals give high school athletes who do not partici- pate in inter-scholastic sports an organized sports program for themselves. This year, besides the physical intramurals such as basketball, volleyball, and table tennis, mind games like chess and checkers were also played. I. Cagers fighting for the re- bound. 2. Nat Norfleet dis- plays a brilliant serve. 3. The ball's a little too high for J. McDaniel. 4. L. McKin- ney and M. Peacock jumping high for the tipoff. 5. M. Haynes returns the volley. 6. Chess, a game of concentration, keeps C. Buchanan and M. Lit- tleton deep in thought. 5 6 Thinking well is wise; planning well, wiser; doing well wisest and best of all. Persian Proverb 43 ORGANIZATIONS TIME, TEMPER AND TRIBULATION Capturing the real thing at MHS was a some times hectic but always rewarding task. Putting it all together is the final re- sult of time, temper, and tribulation. Ad selling, photography, as well as journalism are also a part of the experience called annual staff. Selling suckers and the Buy a Ma hisco day were opportuni- ties to win a free annual and added a little change of pace to the school day. SITTING: L. Swift, D. Beck, V. Alexander. STANDING: E.

This and more was discovered at the Speech Club assembly March 15. A little romance, a little lechery, a bit of mur- der , a touch of humor, and a dab of real life drama, and mystery con- tributed to the performance. In the long tradition of who-dun-its, the Speech Club in its major activity of the year, the presentation of The Baloney Adventure will be remembered at MHS as ranking high on the list.

In order for Madison High to run in a smooth manner it is necessary for the faculty, students, and parents to meet and discuss any problems which arise. The Student Advisory Commit- tee met and stated their opinions on these problems and helped to develop a better school atmosphere. FIRST ROW: S. Herring, R. Burgess, L. Pickles, D. Beck, K.

Without each of you it would have been impossible topro- duce our finished product. Several photographers who deserve credit are Garner Walker of Olan Mills, Kirby Reichman, Danny Bish, and Ken Klanicki of the Valdosta Times. We are grateful to each of these men as they have fulfilled our request for pictures, particularly those that took that extra bit of skill and time. To Mike McCaskill goes a big thank you for all the time' spent in listening to the problems that arose during the days spent in pre- paration for our yearbook. Also, we would like to thank him for helping us make the big decisions that came our way. To Jim Bolin, our Taylor Publishing representative, we say thank you for being here to answer our many questions. Also we wish to thank all our patrons and ad buyers without whom there would be no yearbook. We would like to thank the entire student body for their cooper- ation and enthusiasm in helping us with pictures and necessary in- formation. Finally, to the faculty, the Mahisco staff wishes to say thank you for excusing us from class, and for your patience when we interrupted your classes as we worked on the yearbook . i 89 We, the Mahisco Staff, of 1973-74 proudly dedicate this year's annual to all the students at Madison High School. There are many students who have contributed so much, that we could not begin to recognize them individually. We have some that are great leaders in the school, some are great sportsmen, a great percent a re science wizards, others are music minded. But ALL are important. Everyone has a talent, each one a purpose, everyone a goal. So as our theme indicates WE FINISH TO BEGIN, remember, you all hold the future in the palm of your hand. GOOD LUCK!

I would like to congratulate the staff for the fine job they did. To you, Mrs. Eloise Barrs, our Advisor, who has been so much more than just an advisor, I would like to say a great big thank you.
