Debbie Baird silently but anxiously awaits the team’s strategy during a tense moment when defeat seems inevitable Searching and probing into the unknown histories and sciences of mankind made the Mavahian more aware of his place and responsibility in a world of conflict, hope, and promise. Private thoughts, ambitions, fears ... All cai be realized and conquered through private dreams. SCA President Rod McMillian contem plated numerous problems as he led the studen body. 2 Opening Theme Understanding through involvement, man reaches out Wrapped up in his own small world the youth is involved ... Engulfed in private thoughts, concerns, ambitions, and fears he dares to dream ... of a better world ... A world where his classmates are not killed in Vietnam ... Where he can feel genuine con¬ cern for his fellow man ... Where color, class, and creed really make no difference ... A dream shared by his father’s generation ... and his father’s ... Clinging to the hope that maybe his generation can change things ... The individual lives a life apart— all his own ... To mold and build ... To gradually expand and include others... But first to understand himself and his small world. Scopes were broadened and minds strengthened as individuals sharing a common interest joined together each adding their own thing to form a harmonious whole. Theme Opening 3 Mavahi movement expands, develops individual interests As he fled from self, the in¬ dividual began to consider who he was and why he was... Certainty emerged from the smog of confusion ... Growing up was a fright¬ ening experience which in¬ cluded a search for knowl¬ edge and the acceptance of more responsibility ... Involvement in school meant stepping into a new kind of life . . . one where contributions of time and energies to strengthen the whole overpowered selfish interests... Wondering, and wandering, searching and explor¬ ing... Mavahi today w’as where youth learned to cherish tomorrow. 8:15—ringing bells, scurrying feet, rushed voices, exchanging ideas . . The five minute interval between classes allowed for conversing, sharing, expounding, laughing . . . involvement. Experiencing a unique oneness and expressing a common goal, Mavahians actively supported their team. Individual attentions surged beyond the classroom into extracurricular activities. 4 Opening Theme Theme Opening 5 Bursting forth with enthusiasm and cheerful¬ ness Devoting their time, talents, and ef¬ forts Sharing their good times with others . . . The Good News Singers. Smiles reflect pride and gratitude as Frankie Deal is commended for his outstanding service and concern for his fellow man by the Ameri¬ can Red Cross. 6 Opening Theme Cries of society summon teensters for valor, service Churning at a faster, dizzying pace, the wheels of community action caught the youth in their spokes of involvement... , We were Martinsville High School students but first mem¬ bers of the community ... Donating time and efforts and having a blast doing it... 1970 was a time for many to be caught up in the projects, church work, and part-time jobs of an All-America City ... An individual’s contribution which greatly affected the ef¬ fectiveness of the total... Decisions to be made and action to be taken by and through the community working with the in¬ dividual. Reaching out, venturing into community proj¬ ects, Jane Lawing offers her time and service to Governor Lynwood Holton at the All-America City Banquet. Theme Opening 7 8 Opening Theme Harsh realities of world controversies plague young An explosive world ... One moment here, the next else¬ where was the most encompas¬ sing scope of the youth’s involve¬ ment ... 1970—a year of change, of revo¬ lution, of achievement... The first moon walk, a nation torn by the Cambodian crisis, successful heart transplants, 18 year olds granted the vote, a war that continued to claim too many lives, concern aroused for the first native American— the Indian ... A ray of hope as young persons continued to volunteer for Vista and the Peace Corps Expressing ourselves peaceful¬ ly, working with and for our fel- lowman ... A spirit of determination as unsatisfied youth marched and demonstrated and tried to change their world. “Just how close is the war to me?” “Should I remain quiet or demonstrate?” Vietnam, riots, marches is it right? Students began to realize the closeness of the world situations. Fuming car exhausts, puffing smoke stacks, and smoldering open fires were attacked throughout the nation by such pollution zealots as Bill Adams on Earth Day. Man takes his first step on the moon . . . John¬ ny is dying from malnutrition . . . Climaxing the Senior assembly, a plea for the common man was expressed by news commentator Steve Greene. Theme Opening 9 Student Life Laughter, tears reflect period of frenzied activity Involvement . . . Touching every facet of a student’s life... 1970—A year of happiness and fun—Time snatched in the parking lot to listen to a favorite tape ... The thrill of receiving a first homecoming mum— from someone special... A windmill created for Junior-Senior prom ... But 1970 also brought disap¬ pointment and tears— Getting a “C” after staying up all night to rewrite a theme... A baseball team playing their hearts out to an empty stadium— only to lose ... The death of a classmate ... The dull monotony of Mavahi routine mixed with the exciting extravaganza of special moments... One year of our lives. 10 Student Life Theme Theme Student Life 11 School Opening Mavahians trade summer fun for September toils June, July, and August—three lazy months crammed with summer activi¬ ties had flown past. Mavahians reluc¬ tantly relinquished summer jobs, vaca¬ tions, warm sun rays, and sleep to be caught up in the whirlwind of school activities. Completely lost but admit¬ ting it to no one, the new ninth and tenth graders fell into the scheme of things. An uproarious opening assem¬ bly, new locker combinations, and end¬ less lunch lines marked the beginning of the 1969 year. A confused Mavahi began to settle into an established routine with well worn tracks from class to class. Home¬ rooms, physical inspections, and year¬ book pictures were old excuses to get out of new classes. Students attended spirited pep rallies, supported action- packed football games, and endured chaotic fire-drills. Club week was filled with campaigns encouraging extra cur¬ ricular participation. October brought honor to Mavahi ' s publication world when the 1969 Mavahi received an NSPA All American Award and a CSPA Medalist.

Student Life 13 Homecoming “A Time for Us, youthful excitement penetrates hiahliaht of football season Eyes misted and blinded by a bright circle of light, sixteen excited Senior girls walked to their seats of honor on stage during Wednesday’s assembly. A new tradition at Mavahi was created— a homecoming court chosen by the foot¬ ball team to reign over the game and dance. On the following Friday morn¬ ing, the court and their escorts braved the cold winds enduring frozen fingers and toes in order to practice with the band. That night at the halftime festivities, radiant girls were presented with white Hard to belie e, but true this frostbitten group is the same one that was presented to Mavahi students, parents, teachers, and graduates during halftime at Ben Ramsey Field. mums before parading through an arch, down the field, into a semicircle before the stands. Forming an “M,” the band played the new alma mater written by M iss Ruth Pace. United, the court and student body stood to sing this tribute to Mavahi. The 1969 theme, “A Time For Us,” was carried out at the dance with carricatures of each player and a red and white color scheme. The Tra- jans set the mood musically and soon the disappointment of losing the game was forgotten. Throbbing, pulsating, vibrating music by Trajan guitarists. Bradley Johnson and John Franck, charges the festive air and resounds off the bright¬ ly decorated gymnasium walls.

The naive generosity of Daniel Ponder and the innocent delight in ice cream cones and electrical appliances of Bonnie Dee captured the hearts of audiences in mid-November.

The cafe¬ teria took on a festive air with white table cloths and red and green center¬ pieces. Mistletoe was on sale for eager boys and hopeful girls during a sock hop held in the gym. The jolly man with the white beard and red sack made his annual appearance during the Christmas assembly. Bulletin boards, blinking lights, and the smell of ever¬ green further served to enhance Mavahi with the holiday spirit.

The English¬ men gave one of their last performances together for the 1970 Senior Class picnic. 28 Student Life Spring Highlights Light garb, lighter thoughts emerge for Senior Week Seniors protested, argued, petitioned, stormed the principals’ offices and, at last, were granted all requests for Se¬ nior Week privileges. Each day of the week, May 11-15, a special activity was planned, beginning with Wear Any¬ thing Day on Monday. Students were given free reign regarding school dress except that shoes were still required for health reasons. (Dr. Scholl’s foot pads could be substituted.) Even shades, without a prescription, were allowed in class. Tuesday was declared Senior Teach¬ ing Day as each teacher was replaced for the entire day by two students. The faculty lounge overflowed with Seniors eager to exercise their new freedom. The Coke machine was exhausted early in the afternoon, ash trays overflowed, and several faculty members were forced to flee to Mr. Finley’s office. “The Mark of the Vampire’ ' and “The Passionate Plumber’’ were shown Wednesday following an 11:00 Senior lunch block. The Senior assembly on Thursday not only entertained but issued a plea for the common man. A picnic followed with music provided by the Englishmen. Fried chicken, Cokes, and sweet buns filled empty stomachs as Seniors basked in the sun. Student Life 29 From hard rock to smooth soul, the Divets aimed to please And please they did. The popular sounds of ’70 wafted through the cafeteria into the wee hours of the morning While the punch lasted, dance weary couples en¬ joyed the cool atmosphere of the lounge. Band breaks provided time to relax, rest tired feet, and chat with good friends ik 30 Student Life Proud relatives, and somewhat misty-eyed parents watch as graduates march down the aisle to their assigned seats in the center section of the audito¬ rium during Baccalaureate.

Student Life 31 Senior Prom, Baccalaureate Leo, Aries swing to sounds of Divets as couples dance through spring night Peace symbols, signs of the Zodiac, and candid pictures of Seniors provided the decorative motif for a spring semi- formal prom. Vibrant, alive with energy, Seniors and their dates poured through a star-studded evening into the dimly- lit cafeteria. At nine o’clock music by the Divets began to reverborate. Sound bounced off brightly postered walls and enticed couples to the dance floor. Thirsty Seniors consumed the entire punch supply by 11:00 and were forced to drink water for the remainder of the evening. ■A Sunday, June 7, Seniors reverently filed into the auditorium, taking their places in the front section as the bacca¬ laureate service began. An unconven¬ tional speaker with a message in keep¬ ing with today’s liberal trend was chosen to give the baccalaureate ad¬ dress. Gesturing emphatically, Mr. Joseph Grubbs spurred on the Class of 1970, warning them that in their at¬ tempts to change the world, they would meet with opposition, just as they had in their attempts to revolutionize the school.

Guidance Students plan ahead, seek help on schedules, colleges Problems! Problems Problems’ The cver-patient guidance office at Mavahi handled problems of a bewildering vari¬ ety — schedule assignments and changes, college plans, job prospects, testing headaches, and even occasional advice to the love-lorn. Mavahi ' s stu¬ dent body kept four full-time counselors and one secretary hopping. College bound students found advice on selection, application, and financial aid as they prepared to continue their formal education. Terminal students dropped in to explore the vocational program being offered, local job oppor¬ tunities, and the possibilities of on-the- job training. Teachers found the guidance office an invaluable source of information. Each students personal file contained up-to-date information on his personal history , his previous school records, and the results of standardized and special¬ ized testing. Teachers also utilized help¬ ful teaching aids such as vocational units and films. In addition to handling schedule as¬ signments and the recording of all grades, the guidance office offered the services of a visiting teacher, a school nurse, a speech therapist, a school psy¬ chologist, and a rehabilitation superin¬ tendent. They also helped to coordin¬ ating the efforts of the welfare depart¬ ment, the employment agency, the juvenile court, and the local service clubs. Another busy area which attracted students was the library with its split- level structure, plush carpeting, indivi¬ dual carrels, and abundant resources. At the beginning of the year, librarians Mr. Thomas Gordan and Mrs. Margar- ette Carrington ordered approximately seven hundred new books to add to the vast number already available. Students found more magazines of current inter¬ est on the racks. Occasionally music for easy listening could be heard as stu¬ dents prepared class assignments or merely browsed in search of something for leisure reading.

During the awards assembly, Mrs. Hopson pre¬ sented a letter of commendation to Gael Marshall which she won as a result of the National Merit Scholarship Tests. Curriculum 37 English Department Characters come alive from novels in presentations “To be or not to be!” Glistening swords, blood, and white capes were used by English students to portray Hamlet, Julius Caesar, and other char¬ acters in presentations given in their English classes. Huckleberry Finn. To Kilt A Mockingbird. A Tale of Two Cities, and other novels became famil¬ iar to the English students at Mavahi through the paperback book program. Students were introduced to these novels according to their ability. After finishing the paperbacks, oral reports were presented to the class concerning what the student had learned in his novel. Skits, reports, and themes were se¬ veral of the techniques used to break from the monotony of the everyday classroom routine. Poetry, short stories, and essays were a vital part of the literature course. Stu¬ dents were introduced to many writers and their techniques through literature. Drama and speech classes were of¬ fered to all interested students. The art of acting, speaking clearly, and direct¬ ing were taught. A tour through the auditorium, acting on the stage, and writing their own plays helped the stu¬ dents to understand the theatre. All English students were encouraged to participate in forensics activities. Poetry reading, prose reading, spelling, and public speaking were the areas open to students. These activities helped to develop an appreciation for their English language.

The books came in an array of designs and mod colors— avocado green, maize yellow, royal blue, and shocking pink. A book couldn’t be judged by its cover, though. The content’s quality was determined by math teachers who viewed it most optimistically. Miss Patricia Featherstun, head of the Math Department, stated that she and the other math teachers, “are pleased with the number of students who take math beyond the required amount.” Math courses were designed to suit the needs of each student at Mavahi. Each class was a preparatory step to the next more difficult branch of mathematics. To keep the students in¬ terested, constant mathematical atmo¬ sphere enhanced the department.

Social Studies Department Mavahians gain new awareness through world affairs As social studies’ students of today, Mavahians prepared to take their places as tomorrow’s citizens and lead¬ ers. They gained a new awareness of the world and of the changing forces and controversies of today’s society. World History enabled ninth grade students to gain knowledge of past civilizations — how the people lived and how their lives influenced today’s world. The formation and physical features of the earth was explored in World Geography courses. Maps, globes, charts, and films were visual aids em¬ ployed to impart a better understanding of world affairs. Juniors, enrolled in United States History, probed into textbooks and searched library facilities for extra materials about their country’s heri¬ tage. A clearer picture of our nation’s formation and development was care¬ fully examined. Seniors gained a new awareness of how our nation is run through their study of government. Students inves¬ tigated the political philosophies which have influenced today’s thoughts and concerns thru projects and speeches. A mock congress was held in which stu¬ dents discussed law change, drugs, Viet Nam, ghettos, defense spending, and Communism. In November, during the election of governor for Virginia, stu¬ dents formed Republican and Demo¬ cratic committees, made scrapbooks, presented speeches, and put up bulletin boards depicting their party platform. They also learned to use the voting machine and the proper method of voter registration. W hat were the causes of the Mexican War?

As the odors of sulfur and formalde¬ hyde permeated the building, Mavahi- ans were seen rushing through the cor¬ ridors in an effort to escape the pungent fumes. New to the Science Department was the tract system. First introduced in the biology classes, the system enabled a student to accelerate at his own pace. Also offered were chemistry, earth sci¬ ence, and physics. Each room was equipped with run¬ ning water, individual storage drawers, sinks, and gas and electrical outlets. Student safety was considered with the instalation of eye wash fountains. The circular corridor housed sixteen lab carrels, which were assigned to those students who wished to conduct long range projects or to do additional classroom work. Located between the two biology rooms was the animal room.

Poets say that love makes the world go around. Maybe so; but in a world where travel around the globe is only a matter of hours, effective communica¬ tion has become increasingly impor¬ tant. Realizing this, Mavahi strived to provide students with the oppor¬ tunity to acquire a modern second language—either French or Spanish through the facilities of the Foreign Language Department. An intriguing array of equipment was available to all of the students whether they were novices in their first struggling weeks or veterans completing their third or fourth year of language study. Language labs with tapes, ear¬ phones, record players, and records were used in the ALM program which helped strengthen students ' ability to recognize and pronounce the sounds of the new language. Reviewing nine long months’ of verb conjuga¬ tions, vocabulary, and preterite tenses, Miss Taylor ' s seventh period Spanish class begins the dreaded study of exams. Routine class work included instruc¬ tion in pronunciation and conversation, in reading and listening comprehen¬ sion, and in gram mar. Material was frequently introduced through dia¬ logues, stories, poems, novels, and music. Beyond the mechanics of language conversation and comprehension, stu¬ dents delved into the world of culture, tradition, and history. Newsreels and magazines made current events come alive. Classroom skits used authentic costumes and props-whenever possible. Foreign visitors and well-traveled local citizens fascinated students with anec¬ dotes of their experiences. Four years of language and civilization study were offered to those interested in French. Ever-popular Spanish added a fifth year to its program. Buttons, dials, and knobs fascinate Barbie Kerr and Gerald Price while they explore the language lab. The earphones and record player were used to expose students to the French music.

For the large number of students be¬ ginning Home Economics, and for those not planning a career in that area, Home Economics I and II and Home Economics Special were offered. These courses compiled in one year a variety of essentials to the homemaker. Prepa¬ ration of foods, principles of sewing, and interior designing were some of the subjects that future brides were famili¬ arized with. Child care and home nursing were also studied in order to acquaint stu¬ dents with modern health and First Aid standards. Occupational Home Economics was offered to those students who planned vocations in food preparation. The main focus in this course was the devel¬ opment of culinary skills. The efficiently planned apartments satisfied the needs of each class. The modern appliances of the department, including dishwashers, sewing machines, cooking units, and refrigerators aided students in acquiring new homemaking capabilities. A new project of the Home Econom¬ ics department was the Home Econom¬ ics Clubs. Within each class, there were club meetings once a month featuring speakers who gave talks or demonstra¬ tions.

General business was known as the “traveling” class to business students. Many field trips were taken throughout the year to local businesses and indus¬ tries to observe the types of business organizations as well as specific kinds of organizations. Frequent guest speak¬ ers spoke to the students on what was actually happening in the community. One general business class that was composed entirely of girls did an exten¬ sive unit on their self-improvement. Vocational business education stu¬ dents in the junior and senior years were enrolled in a two-hour block program in the area of their greatest interest and ability. In stenography the major em¬ phasis was placed on the development of shorthand skills and related areas in which a secretary should be proficient. Vocational bookkeeping included double-entry bookkeeping procedures, office machines, related typewriting, and an introduction to data processing. Clerk-typist students learned to deal with a variety of business forms, ma¬ chine transcription, filing, and dupli¬ cating to train them for a general office position. In all three programs, per¬ sonnel relations, office procedures, and individual self-improvement were stressed. During the senior year, many of the vocational-block students were employed in local offices to implement their classroom instruction and to de¬ velop their basic skills. Economics was offered for the aca¬ demic student who wished to delve into the organization structure of American businesses.

At the senior high school, electronics, crafts, and drawing classes were offer¬ ed. In Electronics 1 the basic funda¬ mentals of electricity were taught, and in Electronics II the students were taught the fundamentals in greater depth. The crafts department provided three levels. The students gained a knowledge in jewelry, leather, ceramics, and art metal. Industrial Arts also offered architectural and machine drawing which was taught mainly for an understanding and for students planning to go to college. Vocational drawing trained students for work after leaving high school. At the junior high school auto me¬ chanics I and II were taught. In this field the fundamentals of the car were studied. Field trips were taken by the more advanced students. Woodworking was offered at Albert Harris. Students learned to design and make furniture. They also studied such things as wood turning, carving, and joinery.

Students attended an hour of class, followed by work in the afternoons in retail, wholesale, or service occupa¬ tions. Proper job application, interviews, and follow-ups for interviews were ex¬ plored. Students worked on displays for windows, counters, and floors. Mer¬ chandising, markups, personal rela¬ tions, packaging, and business relations were also studied. During the year, there were various assigned unit and project works. Ar¬ ranging displays for the DE window was a monthly project. Other unit projects included guest speakers who elaborated on the various fields of business. Practical display techniques arc first taught to distributive education students and then arc applied when the students prepare the G building display window.

This marked the begin¬ ning of a new epoch in Martinsville High School athletics I-A competition. The Bulldogs had formally entered the I-A Western District, containing some of the most renowned schools in the state, and thus reached the highest pos¬ sible level of participation. The first game with Andrew Lewis convinced the Bulldogs that the step up from l-B football would not be easy. The first half developed into a defen- sivedeadlock that was broken by neither team until Big Red ' s Clyde W illiams booted a field goal near the end of the second quarter to give the ' Dogs a 3-0 halftime lead The Wolverines, however, came back in the second half to score four touchdowns for a 26-3 victory. A superb passing attack and crushing de¬ fense that blotted out the ' Dogs attack proved the downfall of the Bulldogs. 62 Sport Football team: Front Donnie Hamilton, Whit Gravely.

The Bulldogs tasted their first victory of the year when they hosted the More- head Panthers in the second game. The Panthers struck first, but the ' Dogs rallied with senior fullback David Kur- atnick providing the score and Clyde Williams the crucial PAT. The Bull¬ dogs threatened several times, but the Panther defense allowed only the one score. The Bulldogs found themselves on the road the following week thirsting for revenge against traditional Drewry Mason. In a spirited contest, the Bull¬ dogs completely outclassed the opposi¬ tion. The hapless Spartans committed several costly errors deep in their own territory to aid the ' Dogs. A fumble recovery and an inter¬ ception by Dru Rothrock led to two scores in the first quarter. In the second quarter, Ricky Dalton blocked a punt that was recovered and carried to the one-yard line by Carl Hairston. The big, 245-pound tackle carried it in from the fullback position. Hairston was to become invaluable for the rest of the season as a short yardage back. Other scores came on runs by Clyde Williams, David Kuratnick, Dru Roth¬ rock, Carter Martin, and Jimmy Sea- graves, who also intercepted a pass.

The Ficldale-Collinsville Cavaliers were un¬ defeated and favored to win in the Pied¬ mont District, but had never beaten the Bulldogs. Providing the touchdowns were David Kuratnick, Clyde Williams, and Carl Hairston. The defense, led by such well-coached players as Hairston, Dalton, Collins, and Wimbush, put forth a commendable effort in effecting their first shutout of the season. The Bulldogs at this point were 3-1. In 1-A power George Washington of Danville, Martinsville faced the defend¬ ing state champions. And indeed, the Cardinals played championship football in downing the ' Dogs, 38-14. The Bull¬ dogs showed a grinding offense as Kur¬ atnick scored twice from the ground. On October 10, the Bulldogs travel¬ ed to Roanoke to play the Patrick Henry Patriots and returned in triumph with their first I-A victory. Big Red next faced the Halifax Comets whose elusive running and ex¬ pert faking dazzled the ' Dogs for a 20-6 halftime lead and momentum which lasted throughout the game. For Martinsville, the first score came on a Boaz TD pass to swift back Clyde Wil¬ liams. Williams scored again in the fourth quarter on an end sweep and Dru Rothrock ran for the conversion. The first homecoming game brought the Jefferson Magicians. The spirit of the team was enhanced by pre-game and halftime ceremonies, but the Magi¬ cians spoiled the festivities with a 15-10 victory. The Bulldogs jumped to a 10-0 lead in the second quarter on a safety by Herb Collins assisted by David Mc¬ Donald and a touchdown by Boaz, but Jefferson scored before the half ended and drove to a TD in the third quarter to put the brakes on Big Red’s efforts. In the following game, the ’Dogs were upset in Lynchburg by the E. C. Glass Hilltoppers. Big Red tallied twice by virtue of a pass from Boaz to Dalton and a TD jaunt by Kuratnick, but the missed conversions provided the margin of defeat. The Bulldogs faced the season fma. against the Bassett Bengals. A lo- would place the Bulldogs below the 500 mark whereas with a win, Big Red could equal their 5-5 record of the previous year. Also, a win against the Bengals would give Martinsville a com¬ plete sweep of the former Piedmont foes and thus the nominal City-Count Championship. The result of the game was a re¬ sounding 30-12 Bulldog triumph. Powerful fullback Kuratnick received a nomination from the Roanoke Times for the best single-game performance by virtue of his statistics for this game. Kuratnick rolled up 244 yards and scored three TD’s. Hairston also scored and contributed three PAT’s to com¬ plete the scoring.

Placing off base, William Fleming ' s runner is caught unaware by a quick throw to first baseman Donald Boa . Donald was voted the team’s most valuable player.

C. Glass Hill- toppers and then in a triangular meet with the Jefferson Magicians and the William Fleming Colonels. Even in de¬ feat, the Bulldogs learned, gaining ex¬ perience at the hands of stronger rivals. In a close contest, Mavahi took its first victory from the George Washing¬ ton Cardinals. After successful meets with the Halifax Comets and the An¬ drew Lewis Wolverines, Big Red added two more wins to their score. The area high schools found them¬ selves completely outclassed when the Dogs ran away with the city-county meet. MHS met or broke existing rec¬ ords in shot putt, the 100 yard dash, the high jump, the broad jump, the triple jump, the high hurdles, and the 880 yard run. Mavahi closed its first season in 1-A with an impressive 5-3 record. Four track men went from the district to the regionals at Virginia Tech and on to the state tournament at William and Mary: Olvin Jackson in pole vault; Lawrence Mitchell in high hurdles and high jump; Ricky Scales in 100 and 220 yard dashes; and Clyde Williams in 100 yard dash.

Thrilling awards, birthday celebra¬ tions, endless suggestions, vigorous campaigns, late nights, ignored studies, minor arguments, hovering deadlines, and a lot of last minute hard work all contributed to the 1970 Mavahi. Throughout the year, the Mavahi staffs pride grew- as the 1969 Mavahi was awarded an A+ rating, 1st place in both the Virginia High School League and Southern Interscholastic Press As¬ sociation, All-American, and Medalists. However, the challenge was intensified to make the 1970 Mavahi a better an¬ nual. Sixth period, after school, and late night sessions became a time of exchan¬ ging ideas, constructive criticism, and developing close friendships. Around school, students were encour¬ aged to vote “yes for summer delivery by eye-catching posters, an explanation in an assembly, and enthusiastic staff members. Through voting, Mavahians demonstrated their overwhelming ap¬ proval. n T|fl I i Staff: 1st row — Marjorie Richmond, . ed.; Paula Scgraves, Myra Davis, Debbie atterson, Rita Johnston, Anne Dunn, Elaine enter.

Surrender¬ ing the distinction of being one of the few free high school newspapers, the Barker went on sale eight different times this year at five cents per copy. Filled with disgust and disappointment at last year’s display of unappreciative¬ ness, the 1970 Barker decided to remedy the situation. After numerous discussions and debates, the staff con¬ cluded that the only way to gain respect for their paper would be to require stu¬ dents to purchase the Barker at a small fee. The Barker provided the opportunity for both teachers and students to air their gripes. Opinions were stated on such controversial issues as the dangers of pollution, abolishing the hair regula¬ tions, and the need of a Senior lounge. Regular features included Senior Circle, Vox Populi, Sportscope, and Club Cor¬ ner.

Past Spanish Club speakers were remembered this year on Valentine’s Day with a card de¬ signed and created by the Spanish Club. Bulletin boards, buttons, and posters informed all students of Pan-American Week Flags of all the Pan-Am coun¬ tries and individual Spanish projects were displayed in the library. Although many French-speaking Mavahians still did not know what to expect from the cafeteria, Spanish scholars were in¬ formed early in the day when the lunch menu was read over the intercom in Spanish. As a special project, the two Spanish students wearing the American flag on flag day were awarded movie tickets to the Rives theatre. Congregating during study hall, en¬ thusiastic club members met to hold conversation groups in an attempt to improve their Spanish.

As the names were presented, dreams became reality or were crushed. Induction into the National Honor Society is an honor awarded to out¬ standing students only after faculty and administration has scrupulously screen¬ ed the list of those eligible.

Jazz music vs. hard rock? When the Stage Band played, Mavahi students tended to forget there had ever been any music known as hard rock, and senti¬ mental parents remembered their “good old days”. For a short time the gap between generations was closed as parent and child together were caught up in the Jazz 11 concert presented by the Stage Band. Modeling their new tuxedos, the Stage Band made their first appearance of the year at the Virginia Stage Band Festival held at E. C. Glass High School. With the hope of enlisting pros¬ pective band members, the Stage Band performed for the elementary schools and the junior high at various times throughout the year. Performing for the last time during the year, the Symphonic Band presents a concert of contem- pory music. The concert was a part of the Fine Art’s Festival of Cultural Week. Library Club Spot of liveliness changed to quiet heaven for studiers Making a transition from the liveliest spot in school to a noiseless haven for studiers can be next to impossible. Members of the Library Club quickly realized this as they attempted to create and maintain an atmosphere of peace¬ fulness and placidness in the library. Aiding the librarian was the apparent objective of the club. However this en¬ tailed anything from shelving returned books to selecting new ones. Study halls and free afternoons were spent cate¬ gorizing new books, producing luring displays, constructing colorful bulletin boards, and the never ending job of tracking down overdue books. As school nears an end. overdue library books are returned by the grocery cart load Felicia Jones and Teresa Mathcrly arc working hard to shelve the returned books.

Such remarks were audible as the stu¬ dents’ art was viewed as a part of the Fine Arts Festival. Soliciting, collecting, and displaying were responsibilities headed by the Art Club. A wave of enthusiastic anticipation swept the Art Department with the birth of an art club. An illustrated talk on practical design by a commercial artist began the year. During Christmas, the club designed unique bulletin boards and made traditional wreaths. As the year progressed, it became evident that the club wasn’t as successful as had been hoped. By the second semester the club was non-existent. Club: 1st row — Debbie Finchman, Paula graves.

For the twelve varsity cheerleaders, summer hours were filled with learning and perfecting both old and new cheers. With the opening of school, the ten ju¬ nior varsity cheerleaders were elected. Although the cheerleaders worked faithfully to involve students in the Mavahi spirit, the response was gener¬ ally weak. In January, a group of con¬ cerned students formed a committee to study the cheering situation. The com¬ mittee spent several afternoons with the cheerleaders trying to determine a solu¬ tion. The last games proved that more students were at last becoming involved. Activities 125 Future Business Leaders Stricken by love. The bold one!

In accordance with the national goal of promotion of FBLA ' s in the United States and other countries through communication, they set up a corre¬ spondence between Mavahians and students in Latin America. FBLA ' ers exchanged information on their clubs, jobs, and way of life. This communique was awarded Most Original Project at the state convention. Making a name for themselves at the Radford Region Conference, the FBLA returned home with six first places. The Parliamentary Law Team, Scrapbook, Most Original Project, Most Original Idea, and Mr. FBLA traveled to the state competition. Here they took three firsts including Most Outstanding Chapter.

The Squad performed at both basketball and football games. Although the Squad was a relatively new facet of Mavahi ' s school life, the girls quickly organized and drew up a constitution. Team work and good sportsmanship were the girls ' ideals as they worked to represent our school. The Squad ' s goals were to complement half-time activities and to bring honor to Mavahi through hard work and school spirit. Fame and glory come only after a lot of hard work.

They came to class late, left class early, and somedays didn’t come at all. They concocted an assembly destined to be cut in half, planned a picnic of changing location, and hooted through “The Passionate Plumber” and “The Mark of the Vam¬ pire.” For one day they took over the school, replacing teachers, administra¬ tors, and staff for “Senior Teaching Day.” This week of fun, frolic, and hard work was dedicated to the privileged graduates-to-be after much planning, debating, and compromising. ( ut-off jeans, bcrmudas. and slacks typified the Seniors on “their” day. Among the activities of Senior Week were a “Wear Anything Day,” a teaching day. a prom, and a picnic.

Members of the school board distributed long-awaited diplomas to the sometimes blushing, sometimes giggling, sometimes grinning, some¬ times laughing, but never indifferent class of 1970. Although there was a noticeable air of informality during the evening, the strains of “God of Our Fathers and “Pomp and Circumstances” added dig¬ nity to the opening and closing phases of Mavahi’s second commencement. Following the commencement theme of “Our Innermost Concerns,” the top four students spoke for their classmates and revealed a thoughtful, determined attitude. Valedictorian Jack Lawrence Helms spoke on service to others as an important factor in choosing a career. Salutatorian Marianna Bauerlin pre¬ sented an argument for social evolu¬ tion through constructive effort, “Is America Losing Her Integrity?” was the topic chosen by Rosa E. Pulliam, after which Myra Faye Gregory dis¬ cussed the benefits of constructive thinking. “Three down and one to go,” grins Principal Ralph Shank as he congratulates his third child, Susan Shank. Susan was one of the 284 Seniors to receive a diploma. CHRIS RESSfcL: Transferred from Murphy. N C . 2. Junior Play; Senior Play; Concert Choir. 4 CON¬ STANCE REYNOLDS Band. I PAUL RECARD Art Club.

Trying hard to memorize you. Knowing it would be important. The way you walked. The way you looked back over your shoulder at me. Years later I would hear the singing of the wind and that day’s singing would come back. That time of going would return to me Every sun-grey day, April or August it would be the same for years to come. Man has not made the kind of bromide that would let me sleep without your memory. Or written erotically enough to erase the excitement of just your hands. These long years later it is worse for I remember what it was.

The newly acquired rank of “upper¬ classmen boosted morale as they re¬ alized that they were now school lead¬ ers. Reveling in a newly found respect they faced the major projects of the year, a play and prom, with energy and vitali¬ ty. Past academic and extracurricular achievements were finally honored as the National Flonor Society became a reality for outstanding Juniors. By taking the Senior seats in the final as¬ sembly, a memorable year was left be¬ hind and a new one faced with pride.

Novice producers meet challenge with unique scenery in ‘The Ponder Heart’ Groans of dismay arose from the Ju¬ nior class as requirements for “The Ponder Heart” were listed. The play de¬ manded a larger number of cast mem¬ bers than any previous M.H.S. produc¬ tion, and designs for three different sets. A lengthy list of unusual props included a dishwasher, washing machine, and re¬ frigerator. The required electrical storm and streak of lightning demanded all the technical skill the class could muster. Participators became accustomed to spending their afternoons and evenings painting sets, memorizing lines, and selling tickets. On the night of November 13, the curtain rose for the first of two perform¬ ances. The play centered around Daniel Ponder, portrayed by Scott Boehm, an overly affable millionaire who was standing trial for murder.

Struggling to adopt new schedules and routines, they could not use the excuse of being the youngest class. Yet they felt an awk¬ ward sense of newness because they had just come up from the Junior High along with the Freshmen. Refusing to be overlooked, the Class of ' 72 showed a spirited determination to become in¬ volved, to make MHS sit up and take notice. Sports, classes, clubs, elections all felt the surge of tenth grade par¬ ticipation — setting a precedent for sophomores to come.

Learning at Mavahi was a unique experience. It not only involved essential formulas and theories, but it extended to extra related activities outside the classroom as well. English cl asses constructed exhibits and produced drama. The girls’ P.

The textbook balanced Julius Caesar, a Shakespearean tragedy, with The King and I, a Broadway musical. Students could also choose from such plays as Raisin in the Sun, The Great White Hope, and West Side Story. In addition to the skits and creative projects that backed up this drama study, budding playwrights could produce original plays of their own complete with scripts and sets. Sounds of Simon and Garfunkel soothed students as they struggled with meter and rhyme scheme. Working with ballads, limericks, and other forms, students found that poetry could be fascinating. Paperbacks formed a major part of the sophomore reading program. Classics such as Hugo’s Les Vliserables and Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities were joined by modern novels like Kon Tiki, Black Like Me, True Grit, and Lions in the Way. Using the reading selections as a basis whenever possible, teachers de¬ veloped a corresponding program of grammar study and composition de¬ signed to meet student needs.

Besides mastering the operation of a car, students realized that safety rules they had glibly learned in the classroom were essential on the road. The track provided U-turns, parking zones, and a figure-eight area as well as stop signs and signals. Since several cars were dually controlled from a watch tower, students could practice unaccompanied. After proving themselves on the track, they faced the challenge of driving on highways and in congested downtown Martinsville.

You ' re kidding! I’ll bet no other school has a split-level library. They don ' t really lock students in that big orange thing, do they? How do you get to E Building? These comments were typical of Mava- hi’s Freshmen. Bewilderment and confusion reigned for these ninth graders during their first hectic days. New surroundings, new schedules, and new rules were problems at first, but soon the freshmen became active participants — going out for sports, joining clubs, and developing a spirit of their own.

After active petitioning and campaigning, four class officers were chosen. Twelve represen¬ tatives made the Wednesday afternoon S.C.A. meetings a regular part of their schedule. Four freshmen girls were elected as junior varsity cheerleaders and began regular trips in support of the Bullpups.

Teachers showed their talents in the areas of sewing, hunting, fishing, sporting, scuba diving, and skating. School work and the hours spent in class discussion were only a small portion of many-faceted lives.

The work never ceased nor did the pleasure or enjoyment of creating a book and establishing terrific friendships. The Mavahi ' 70 was an experience for all who entered its covers —the zealous, the lazy, the involved, the indifferent. To all who contributed goes a sincere “thank you. Special appreciation goes to the following: To Miss Linda Watkins who spotted invisible faces, livened copy and cut¬ lines, invented words to fit 48 character headlines, arranged our breaks around baseball games, and who was kept on the ball by Mr. “He. To Mrs. Frances Milstead who of¬ fered her help and assistance in every phase of the book throughout the school year as well as in the summer months when Miss Watkins was in Europe. To Mr. Ralph Shank and Mr. Joseph Finley who signed requisitions, opened doors, and listened patiently to com¬ plaints. To Mr. Max Ward, Delmar represen¬ tative, who suggested and prodded. To Mr. Ralph Criminger, Delmafs artist, and Dillard Carter who designed the cover. To Mr. George May who helped dur¬ ing the summer months with ads. To the Camera Corner, Martinsville, Virginia, for the use of several of their sports pictures. To all section editors who struggled with copy, fought for pictures, and created perfect headlines. To Lyn Wells, Jerry Hiatt, John Franck, and Lawrence Wimbush who supplied sports copy. To Susan Purcell and Becky Wash¬ burn who wrote copy. To photographers Bob Lawhon, Sammy Bennett, David Wade, and Kevin Barrows. To Barker photographer Hugh K. Burns who worked and worked and worked.
