With his aged hands, he types in 1984 and begins to reminisce about days gone by. “So many things have changed since I was a senior at old M.H.S. in 1984. For one thing, the cars are so different. Today’s cars don't hold a light to the 1984 cars. They had en- gines with turbos and fuel injection that could do 0-60mph in less than ten seconds. The 2050 cars are nothing more than spaceships on wheels with the engines of lawnmowers. Yes sir, times have changed. “Another thing that has changed is homelife. When I was young, my family burned wood to heal the house for the winter. I carried wood every night and had tohelpcut it. both sum- mer and winter. But now, everyone turns on the heal pump or opens the solar panels just a little bit wider. I used to enjoy going to McCon- ncllsburg to buy groceries and do some shopping with my mother when I was young. When I turned 16,1 had to drive to McConnellsburg for her. Now, all you do is type your grocery list on the computer, and your grocer- ies are delivered to your house. Pay- ment is just as simple. Type in the account to be paid and the funds arc transferred to the supermarket’s ac- counts. Yes sir, times have changed.” Opening 3 That’s The Way It Was Right — Dick Shore translates his Ag mechanics into Spanish with the latest in computer wrist watches.

September 1983 to June 1984 “Well enough of this nostalgia, I want you to get a broader view of the time when 1 was a senior. Sept. 1983 to May 1984. September 1983 Turmoil was rampant. In protest of a violation of Soviet airspace, Russian jets shot down Korean Airlines Flight 007. 269 were killed including L.S. Congressman Larry MacDonald. On the other side of the world. L.S 101st Airborne Division went on military exercises in Honduras. October 1983 Marine Headquarters in Bcruit. Lebanon was bombed by terrorists, killing 239 Marines. In the same week. L.S. Ma- rines and L.S. Army Rangers spearheaded an invasion of a small Carib- bean island called Grenada. President Reagan ordered the invasion be- cause of increasing support from Cuba to Grenada. November 1983 The Secret Service was on full alert from a bomb blast in the Capital Building in Washington. D C. America observed the 20th anniversity of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. December 1983 In the Middle East, L.S. involvement increased with air strikes and off-shore bombardments by the L.S. Navy against Syrian forces. Long lines and mad rushes typified the Cabbage Patch Doll craze at Christmas time. January 1984 Democratic Presidential Candidate Walter Mondale gained support from large organizations such as AFL-CIO, NEA, and NOW The L.A. Raiders defeated the defending Washington Redskins in the Super Bowl. Februrary 1984 Finally, the L.S. Marines pulled out of war-torn Bcruit. Lebanon. Russian President Yuri Andropov died. He was re- placed by Konstantin Chcrnehko. March 1984 Democratic Presidential Candidates geared up for the Democratic primaries throughout the country. However, after a few, John Glenn. Alan Cranston. George McGovern. Reuben Askew, and Fritz I Killings dropped out. Only Mondale. Hart, and Jackson remained. pril 1984 Millions of procrastinating Americans rushed to send their income tax return before the mid-April deadline.

Opening 5 A Look Back To McConnellsburg “Grandson, let me now take you back to my hometown. McConnells- burg. where I spent a great deal of my early life. -McConnellsburg South Cen- tral Pennsylvania Fulton County -Population — Boro-1,200 School District-4.300 -McConnellsburg High School East Cherry Street Enrollment-about 500 Grade Level — 7-12 “McConnellsburg wasn't a bad place to grow up. There wasn't much crime, and you knew almost everyone in the town. It was just a small, rural Pennsylvania town. There were no big factories to polutc the air with chemi- cals or noise. There were no traffic jams, muggers, or rampant violence. “Old M HS was a great experience. It was the best of schools as far as students, curriculum, and overall ap- pearance. You had to look long and hard to find a better school. It was a school w here the teachers and admin- istrators really cared about the stu- dents, and the students had a close friendship with many of the teach- ers. As the grandfather glanced at the computer screen, a page from the '84 Sparta yearbook appeared. He was surprised and remarked. I guess I forgot about program- ming some of the pages of my old yearbook a couple of years ago. Grandson, this will be the best way to tell you about my school years. But. back then, I wasn't too much of a go- getter. I played too much in the shad- ows of life. So, I’ll tell you about my best friend Homer Jacoby. He was in everything and did everything. With the computer, the pages of the Sparta '84 pages, and his fading memory, the grandfather continues to tell the tale ...

When Homer was a junior, he was there to decorate for the prom, and helped tear it down. Afterwards, he jumped in his car and cruised town, just for the fun of it.

The Fair, What a Feeling Yes, the grand stands did make it through another Fulton County Fair. Doubts were raised, but rest assured the fair went as usual — great. The rides continued to thrill the kids at a bargain price. Three tickets a ride at a quarter a ticket, who wouldn't pay that to get a long lasting nausea feel- ing? Funnel cakes, candy apples, cot- ton candy. Fire Company chicken, and Jaycee hot dogs met county stan- dards. And once again, there were no fatal injuries from the smoke, steam, and dust caused on Demolition Derby night. Many nights (especially Derby night) kids attempted to sneak into the fair. There were different meth- ods to get the job accomplished. Some climbed fences, crawled through holes, or just came so late (or early) there wasn't a charge. Others tried last year's pass or borrowed a friend’s pass. Despite all the various efforts, most kids paid to get into the fair. Once in the fair, the fun began. All in all, nothing improves a social life bet- ter than a fair. The fair ... what a feeling!

There were plenty of active organi- zations to be a part of. Scouts and Explorers provided plenty of activi- ties during the year. In addition, 4H, choirs, and other youth organizations were available for the group oriented student. Perhaps the most popular activity was to hop in the car and cruise the local circuit or go to the malls in Chambersburg and Hagerstown for some shopping and a movie. There was plenty to do. It was sim- ply a matter of taking some initiative to find it. Top — Mr Mitchell is proud to have taken part in the filming of the Speilberg-Lucas film. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.

The lights went down, and the curtain opened to the large crowd. All of the hopes and expectations of the cast and crew were finally resolved. The butterflies grew increasingly worse as hearts pounded against the rib cages. The first lines were spoken, and the fury within suddenly ceased. The Class of 1984 proudly present- ed It's Great To Be Crazy from the pen of Donald Payton. Under the di- rection of Mr. Howells and student director Keith Newell, the cast of 15 seniors put on one of the best plays ever. Also, it w as one of the most prof- itable plays in years, packing the house both nights. The play was for the first time pre- sented in January instead of the tradi- tional April. Therefore, the hard work started at the end of October and was ended on the second presen- tation on January 28. Although “It’s Great To Be Crazy was called a senior play, there were numerous underclassmen who were behind the scenes of the play. Under the supervision of Miss Wald, both seniors and underclassmen built the stage, worked the props, and did other odd jobs. It certainly was great to be crazy. 14 Senior Play I op ( enter Somethings arc naturally funny, according to Tim Walker and JoAnn Sexton.

They didn't know what they were getting into when they started, but eighteen students and several teach- ers decided to present the first musi- cal at MHS in over thirty years. The result was three months of hard work and good times for the cast and two nights of rollicking entertainment for capacity audiences, capped by a standing ovation on closing night. The musical was an unknown quantity, “The Saloon Keeper’s Daughter” by Jack Sharkey and Dave Recser. but it turned out to have well written, catchy songs and an hi- larious plot involving the trials and tribulations of a Western saloon- keeper trying to save his establish- ment from foreclosure by the town villain. Lead roles were well played by Robin Runk as the villain. Mark Hol- linshcad as the saloonkeeper. Kelly Glee as the main saloon girl, and Robby Coltrin as the town preacher. Todd Souders provided plenty of laughs as Grimy Geezer, a spunky, eighty year old prospector who could dance with the best of them. The sup- porting cast included cowboys, song and dance ladies, eligible young maidens, and street kids. Each cast member played their parts to the hilt. A benefit not entirely evident to the audiences was the close relationship that developed among cast members. Aware that they were trying someth- ing new and difficult, they worked hard, cooperated well and drew close as the rehearsals progressed. By the week of production, they felt like one large family, a feeling that was hard to give up after all the work was over. All in all, it was a great experience. School Musical 17 SOUTHERN NIGHTS Anticipation is the best part of the prom. Months before the girls begin their shopping expeditions for the perfect dress. The male gender get measured for their first tuxedo. It's life or death to get the exact color, style, and size. As the months pass and the prom is getting closer, the excitement builds. The next decision is who should one ask to the prom? The guy builds his courage to ask that special someone who catches his eye in the hall. The girl takes extra time in the morning, dressing to attract his attention. He asks her to be his date; she replies that she'd love to go. It's a date! Now they can both look forward to the prom knowing that a good time is guaran- teed. Last minute chores still have to be carried out before the prom: flowers and pictures. The flowers must match what the date is wearing. One never knew there were so many different kinds of flowers. Then Mom and Dad want to take pictures. How embar- rassing! But now it's time to journey to the prom. The theme of the prom was South- ern Nights and the music w as by “Too Many People. This was a side of the gym that is only shown once a year. The music was good, the decorations couldn't have been better, and all en- joyed an evening to be remembered. Top Newly crowned queen. Jill F.lvey. is all smiles, while her date.

For Homer, sports were the easiest way to release let out the anger was to kick someone while playing soccer in gym class. All through the winter, Homer went to basketball games and faith- fully cheered the team. But in the spring, it was his turn. He went out for baseball. He was pretty good ex- cept for fly balls. One lime in prac- tice, he ran into the fence while trying to catch a fly ball. Well, let’s take a look.” 22 Sports Sports Despite losing ten seniors last year, the soccer team exploded to a fine 14- 5 record. With only three players re- turning to the team, it was aided by many skilled juniors. The offense was led by Jeff Garber who scored 25 goals and Joe Murdock with 13. The team started with a 6-0 record and only needed to beat Fairfield to become first half champs in the Blue Mountain League, but lost to them 2- I in a tight game. This did not end the season. The Spartans came back to win the District 5 title for the fourth straight year against Hyndman. The team then advanced to the state play- offs.

Their huge team played an impressive game and won 5-0. De- spite this defeat, the Spartans still outscored their opponents 63-30. The recognition of the Spartans didn't stay in McConnellsburg. The Spartans had three members named to the Blue-Mountain League All- Stars. They were Jeff Garber, Keith Newell, and Joe Murdock, alternate. The Public Opinion picked 6 McCon- ncllsburg All-Stars. They were Jeff Garber and Mark Hollinshead on the first team; and Joe Murdock. Keith Newell. Matt Cover, and Tim Fowler on the second team.

For the second year in a row, Nicki Morgan and Kim Spriggs were the leading scorers. Di- nah Chamberlain sparked the team's defense and Tracy Doyle led in re- bounding. The Spartans conquered Southern Fulton twice and Forbes Road once in the regular season to win the Fulton County Championship. They also tied with Forbes Road for the Cove League Championship. At the end of the regular season the Spartans were ranked fourth in Dis- trict V. The Spartans beat Forbes Road 48 — 34 in round one of the district playoffs. In round two, McConnellsburg played the defend- ing district champions, undefeated Rockwood. At halftime the Spartans trailed 38 — 34 but the Rockets dominated the third quarter and handed the Spartans a 82 — 59 loss.

Varsity Girls Basketball 27 Long Season As their 2-23 record showed, the Spartan basketball team had a disap- pointing season. Inexperience played a major role; there were no returning starters from the ‘83 squad, so last year's J V's were forced into a starting role. Also, due to multiple injuries of three starters, several close games were lost. The bench filled in the needed places, but the opponents pre- vailed. Several games were close or tied in the second half. Last minute rallies by the opposing teams seemed to be just too much for the Spartans. Both Forbes games went dow n to the wire, with MHS winning at home. The season had a few high points. Todd Garber led the offense with 235 points. He was named to the Cove League All Star Team and recieved Honorable Mention on the Public Opinion squad. But the season was one of trials and OPP learning for both the players and MHS coaches. 32 N.

This is not always fair because they arc prob- ably the most important step on the way to the varsity scene. Starting in their freshmen year, athletes begin the long hours of practice and train- ing. It is here that they learn the im- portant fundamentals and techniques of the game. They also gain valuable experience. From here, the athletes eventually pass on to the varsity team.

They ended their season with a record of seven wins, two losses, and two tics. MHS also had a hard work- ing j.v. boys' basketball team. They ended their season with five wins and twenty-two losses.

The action was fast and furi- ous and when the game was finished the eighth grade girls' basketball team had defeated for the second time. Never mind that the season re- cord was 2-6. Under Mr. Hipk iss and Miss Wald, junior high basketball taught the basics and gave valuable game time in preparation for varsity com- petition. The 7th grade boys ended with a 9-2 record, while 8th grade went 2-10. The seventh grade girls finished the season 3-4. One eighth grade boy summed up his season this way, “At least we equalled the record of the varsity boys!” A bote — The strain of the game shows itself on the players' faces even before halftime Left — Jeff Fowler dazles his teammate with his ability to score at crucial times.

The regular season was just as ex- citing. The only losses were to AAA schools Chambersburg (State cham- pions) and Bedford. It was a team effort characterized by great offense. The boys batted .385 collectively. outscorcd their opponents 200 to 95, and hit 30 homeruns during the regu- lar season. Strong pitching by Scott Grissingcr, Gress, and Morgan was also a key, as was tight defense led by Jeff Garber at shortstop. The net result was county. Cove League, and District championships in what can only be described as the best season ever.

Boy's and Girl's District 5 crowns, and a P1AA state championship for the girl's team and it's easy to see it was a banner year for track at MHS. Kim Spriggs led the way for the girls, breaking records all year on the way to state championship efforts in the long jump (17'8' i ), triple jump (37'2' i”), and the 100m hurdles (14.88). Spriggs' efforts also earned the girls the first team championship the school has ever had in any sport. The girls went undefeated in dual meets w ith fine efforts throughout the season from Angie Plessinger, Dcna Carbaugh, Nicki Morgan, and Spriggs, and earned their fourth straight District 5 crown. The boys also claimed their fourth straight district championship with Darren Robinson taking four victo- ries (100m, 200m, 400m, 1600 relay) and Keith Newell winning the triple jump. Robinson went on to place sec- ond in the 200m at the states at Ship- pensburg University. For both teams it was the work of the entire complement of young peo- ple that led to the many regular sea- son victories. Second and third place finishes by steady, unheralded per- formers amassed the points needed for team victories in dual meets and invitationals. Although they didn't get the publicity, they had the satis- faction of knowing their many hours of practice and competition had con- tributed to the banner year in track.

However, lessons should have begun on a elementary level. The ma- jority of the girls on the team learned gymnastics from Coach Hall at age fifteen or older. Despite being a fossil in a young sport, gymnastics proved to be fun for the high schoolers. Dance routines were choreographed by individuals on the team. Individual routines were performed by students who were good in a specific area of gymnastics. Group routines consisted of min- itramp, group tumbling, and vaulting. Once the rou- tines were per- fected, the team traveled to other schools and pre- sented shows. The zenith of the sea- son as the local gym show attended by a capacity audience.

Celeste Thomas, Lori Shade, Top Barbie Sharpe, Shawnee Shives. It was the evening of tryouts. Nerves were all a flutter. “Can I re- member the cheers?” and “Do you think I'll make it? were among some of the worries of the girls. This was just the beginning of the cheerleading season. After the squad was picked, the long season began. This meant hard work, patience, and lots of spirit. During the summer, the varsity squad attended camp at Shippens- burg University. This included Lana Kerlin, Sherri Kelso, Celeste Thom- as, Shawnee Shives, Barbie Sharpe, Marianne Sickles, Donna Cosey, and Lori Shade. While there, they learned new cheers, a routine to Beat It , and received third place overall in the competition. The J.V. squad worked hard, also, although they did not attend camp. They learned new cheers and mounts, and worked on ditties. This squad in- cluded Angie Lynch, Gina Lake, Wendy Keefer, and Tammy Wcn- tling. When school began, the girls start- ed cheering at games. The hard work still continued, though. They now had to maintain good grades as well as practice. This was sometimes hard with the away games and long bus rides. The girls came through it fine, though. Cheering was not all work, though. It really was lots of fun. Both squads got to meet new girls from other schools and make friends. Also, one of the highlights was the Valentine's Day carnation sale. This proved to be a lot of fun, both for the cheerleaders and the students. It really seemed at times like the year went too quickly. This year's advisors were Janis Cut- chall and Tina Washabaugh.

There are quite a lot of people who make this school what it is. Mr. Blevins serves as the high school principal. Quite a lot is in- volved in this job. He assists in sched- uling classes, working with the stu- dents and faculty, making daily deci- sions, and keeping an all around order. This year, Mr. Blevins has also been sending out newsletters to the student body and parents which are very informative. The district superintendent and elementary principal is Mr. Swadley. Part of his job is to convey the ideas of the community to the school board. He also enforces the school policies, organizes school board meetings, and keeps the staff informed. The honor of supervising the whole works belongs to the school board. They spend quite a lot of their time attending committee meetings, and school functions. This shows a lot of interest and concern from the com- munity. Serving as business manager to the district is Mrs. Hoch. This job in- cludes paying bills, making sure the necessary paperwork is done, and working as school board secretary. All in all, these people show a lot of dedication in keeping MHS running They are concerned with the people and keep the quality of education high. Abote Left — James L.

But then, suddenly 1 was a senior. I would soon have a make a career choice and join America’s La- bor force. It seemed like only yester- day I was in my carefree days. But I had to decide. What did I want? What skills did I have? How and where could I make the most of myself? Should I try college or the military? I talked with my parents, my guid- ance counselor, the recruiters, and the college representatives, and found out two things: (l)there are many, many more options available than I ever dreamed of, and (2) I had no idea which one to choose. After realizing this, I decided to go through the whole process again. Ahoie: School means more than just classes to Bill Fcagley. It means a job. money, and work experience.

There were only three people in the room who hadn't been to the podium. Homer had his fingers crossed. “Please, call on someone else,” Homer said to himself. “You're next, Homer. the teacher ordered. His heart jumped into his throat. His pulse quickened, and sweat rolled from his brow. He didn’t know why he was nervous. He knew everyone in the room. But now it was his turn. It would be his first oral report. His hands were shaking as he walked to the podium. He was on his own now, and the eyes of the class were on him. He began to read, and his eyes fo- cused on the paper. The teacher be- gan to tap her pen on the desk, beck- oning him to look up from his paper. His neck broke out in a rash. He couldn't do it. His voice trembled as he plodded on through. Finally, he was done. He scurried back to his chair. He didn't even care what he got on the report. It was over now, and he didn't have to worry any more.

His mind was full of doubts. “Was it pi times the radius squared, or times the diameter ' he said to himself. He couldn't be sure. He was in English class now, and had to get his mind off that math test. “Was it pi times ...?'' He couldn't get that question out of his head. He had to find out. Suddenly Homer jumped out of his seat, and ran out of the class. His ears were deaf to his teacher's shouts. He was headed for the math room. When he got there, his worst dreams came to life. It was neither diameter nor radius. In fact, the for- mula was completely wrong for the problem. lop left: Felicia Hankcrson. Joe Murdock, and Cathy Spidlc learn the fundamentals of word processing.

Each day, they checked out the papers to sec if their stock had gone up. The main point of the lesson was that amateurs shouldn’t play the stock market as they did in the 20’s before the Crash. They were sup- posed to lose money. However, the tenth graders were not a bunch of los- ers, and they had no intention of in- vestion in losing stock. They made their decisions carefully, investing in only the most important businesses. They proved the teacher wrong by racking in SI,500 the first week alone By the end of the month they had doubled their money, and by the end of the year, they were ready to become stock brokers!

High School Life In The Laboratory Ever since man first appeared on this earth, he has been constantly ex- panding his knowledge. The simplest and most important way oflearning is through experimenting. From the dis- covery of fire to nuclear power, noth- ing we have could have come about without learning through trial and er- ror. It is just one of the ways students learned throughout this school year, especially in the science department. From basic science to Chemistry, all science students became familiar with labs and experiments. What would 7th period have been like without the annoying odors from Mr. Christophers 11A Chemistry class floating around the halls? Science is not all fun though. From mixing chemicals to Avogadro’s num- ber to Atomic Structure, Chemistry, as all sciences required not only a sharp mind at the lab table, but a smart one with the books as well.

The driving instructor didn't help me re- lax any, but rather intensified my ten- sion by being more nervous than me. I wondered whether the instructor was upset because of the latest report by the National Health Organization which stated that the most dangerous job of the year was that of a driving instructor, or merely by the fact that there were seven inches of newly fal- len snow on the ground. Of course I never found out which it was because I never asked. After teaching my driving partner and 1 the proper way to start the car, the instructor did not seem to be in any hurry to start the actual driving. The fears of the instructor were ful- filled when my driving partner failed to compensate for a sharp left turn to the school. Fearing the worst. I braced myself for a collision. The right front of the car came within six inches of scraping the wall. I shall never forget that near fatal day of practice driving in the snow. If there is one thing driver’s ed has taught me. it is that I have no ambi- tion to become a driving instructor.

The main job of a teacher's aide was to provide special help to individual stu- dents. This was not extremely easy since there were many students, each with different specific needs. In the Occupational Education de- partment, Mrs. Patricia Clevenger helped the students master math and reading skills necessary after high school. These skills included writing checks, counting and budgeting mon- ey, measuring, and reading. Some students were excellent mathemati- cians, but needed help reading the problems. With others, it was just the opposite. It was the job of the teacher's aide to help these students individually, on a one to one basis. It was a job that required a lot of time and patience, and it was a job that went relatively unseen by many students. PATRICIA CLEVENGER Teacher's Aide.

Many long awaited advantages came along with being a Senior. Every year Mr. Mills would sponsor a club exclu- sive to seniors, called 12-D. The club supports the school in anyway that it can and shows its club spirit by pur- chasing jackets. Homer had the op- portunity to go out on Co-Op. At 11:40 eligible seniors went to work earning money and gaining work ex- perience. Exchanging Senior pictures and announcement cards were activi- ties for only the elite of the school, as well as sitting in the front of the audi- torium. Homer still had some mischievious little boy in him. This was his last year of school, so why not make it a wild one? In the Middle of the senior play. Homer adlibbed about the “lint free J.C. Penny pillows because he didn't know what else to say. He also found pleasure in leaving a black mark in the IGA parking lot. Homer pushed his privileges to the limits. He almost felt like calling his teachers by their first names. Why not, he was almost out of school? The “almost part is what stopped him. As the last year came to a close, Homer looked back on his school days. He only re- membered the good times, which of course, is only natural. Once out of high school things would be different: different in a way that Homer was looking forward to with great antici- pation. 64 Seniors Above Kerry Randier shows how the Mighty Seniors heave sacks of grain Right Joe Murdock portrays the look of a savage senior while on the PA Local History float.

Lelystad has a population of about 50.000. that is one of the reasons she chose a small town. Stefa was 18 years old and graduated from high school in Hol- land in 1983. She arrived in McCon- nellsburg in July and left in June. Since the beginning of the year she has made many new friends. The school here, she says, is a lot different from her own. The people are a lot friendlier and you know more of them. She arrived here because of the Youth For Understanding com- mittee and lived with John and Mar- ian Sickles. She look a course in American History and American Lit- erature since she never experienced these before. Stefa had only four years of English before she arrived here. She also speaks French and German. She picked up many of McConnellsburg's sayings before she left and also could speak English much better. She plans on going to College with a wide view of the American way of life. Stefa was a good experience for all of us and we were a good experience for her.

Seniors 81 “My goodness ... let me see here ... 1 often reminisce about my good ol' school days. Every fall I sit under the apple tree on the hill watching youngsters scamper to school. My best friend, Homer Jacoby, was al- ways late for school. But his sparkling smile got him off the hook. Now that's not to say Homer didn’t get into mischief. His backside was smacked many a time with a hickory stick. Grandson, things were different back then. I'll show ya!

School wasn’t the only thing Homer had to get adjusted to at age twelve. He wanted to start a social life. During the week he concentrated on school, but when Friday night came, Homer was headed to the Ful- ton Theater. Mom and Dad hopped in the family car to take Homer to the movie theater. It didn't matter what was playing that week because no- body watched the movie. All the kids stood outside and talked before the movie, and when it started all the boys sat together to make noises dur- ing the movie. Homer never had so much fun as he did those mischievous Friday nights with the boys. It was even fun waiting for his parents after the movie. Being twelve was great!

Homer practiced his telephone voice with his little sister, just in case Sally would relinquish her number. Smil- ing Sally sure was beautiful. Much too beautiful to notice Homer-or so Homer thought. Every year a man named Tom Diaz comes to MHS with a wild life show. Well, this year the show meant an awful lot to Homer. Sally sat next to him. They giggled all through the film.

Along with shop and sports came a big difference in school curriculum. Homer had to learn a different lan- guage (Boy, was that ever difficult!). He also was forced to think of what he'd do after high school. All these changes did not prevent Homer from playing tricks. He stole Gail's shoe and tied it to a window blind string. After yanking the string, the shoe was out of Gail's reach. Homer rolled on the ground with laughter that day. Sometimes school could be so much fun ... I.eft — Row questions challenge 9A student.

All the local activities had been exhaust- ed by this time and going over the mountain seemed more and more the thing to do. Speaking of dates, Homer by this time was somewhat of a playboy. He still took Smiling Sally out once in a while, but he also dated Mildred, Bertha, and Isabella. Homer took the family car on dates all the time. He kept the boredom out of his life by dating so many different girls. Some- how though, after going to school with the same people for so long, it’s impossible not to get to know every- one. Homer got a special feeling deep down inside as his junior year dwin- dled away. Next year he would be a big senior ...

Clubs Grandson, it was pretty hard to go through high school without being a member of a club. There was clubs for farmers and clubs for homemakers. But somehow, clubs just didn't fit into Homer’s personality. On club day, he would rather have a study hall then go to a club. That’s the way he was.” 102 Clubs The ’84 Staff Created A Masterpiece The question may be asked how the people on the yearbook staff ever completed this magnificent piece of art. Although the staff could take much of the credit, they didn’t do it alone. The people in the senior class helped out tremendously. When the time came in October for the ads to be sold so the yearbook could be fi- nanced, the senior class went to work. They produced a record breaking S4500 in ad sales for part of the cost of the yearbook. Some of the most unlikely candidates sold a fantastic number of ads, and this took care of over half of the cost of the book. Then in January the class sold yearbooks, which took care of the rest of the costs. The yearbook’s final price was almost S8.000.00. Throughout the year, the staff worked almost constantly to complete the book. Pictures were taken (often to be developed in our own dark room): stories were written, and of course layouts were completed and turned in. It’s hard to imagine how much work went into the yearbook, but there was plenty. First, a theme had to be developed from scratch. Then the theme had to be put into stories and layouts. Pages had to be divided into sports, student life, clubs, people, academics, faculty, and of course, ads. Finally the 176 pages had to be completed, turned in, then proofread and corrected. In June the last deadline was met and the yearbook staff hoped they hadn’t made any mistakes. Then in August the yearbooks were recieved and distributed and the project had been completed for another year. Top Behind the Scenes.

The entire school was invited to participate on the newspaper staff. There was an array of writers who volunteered their creative writing for school wide publication. The student body had an opportunity to buy the paper, filled with creative writing, at lunch. At lunchtime students rapidly read the Spartan Informer, but something was different. Ah-ha! The newspaper turned to computer print. A newspa- per must be up with times, and the Spartan Informer paced itself well. Like other clubs in the school, this year the Spartan Informer had its own T-shirt. Computer print and staff T-shirt were two new items in newspaper, but the traditional sentiments were not lost. Every year the Informer has a Halloween, Christmas, and Senior is- sue. Each issue had its ow n individual flavor because the varied staff adds something original. Abo� e — Counting nickels.

It's activities ranged from building floats to selling Florida fruit. Approximately 1250 cases of grapefriuts, oranges, and tan- golos were sold. In keeping with family tradition, Kevin Brady followed the footsteps of his older brother Ken as President of the FFA. The office of vice president was held by senior Harry Houck. The 108 FFA treasurer's position was held by a sen- ior Greg Strait. The remaining offi- cers were: secretary, Tom Nesbitt; sentinel, Kerry Randier; Chaplin, Kurt Lunch; reporter, Brian Hann; and student advisor, Ryan Deshong.

FHA Completes A Busy Year One active organization which is continually growing is the FHA. For example, once it consisted of grades nine through twelve, but now eighth graders are allowed to join. The organization had one of its most active years. In October, the Fall Leadership Meeting was held. All three county schools were invited and two guest speakers showed up to talk about drug and alcohol abuse, and women in need. Also in the fall both the Junior and Senior High offi- cers went to a regional meeting in Halifax. Pa. Here our officers talked to officers from other schools. The biggest project was financing the 4-H. FHA building at the fair. The members sold hoagies, apple dumplings and curly fries to raise money. The members also visited the Farm Show and traveled to Frank Lloyd Wright’s famous home, “Falling Wa- ters. The Annual FHA Banquet was the last major project of the year. The entertainment was a local choir, and Stefa Duursma also told about the Netherlands. FHA III Ro I: Chris Conners, Kristy Richards. Laurie Cordell. Michelle Carbaugh, Gloria Seville. Jenny Oakman.

The junior high and senior high bands combined to form a new unit consisting of forty- two members. Although they didn’t have to worry about looking sharp in the street, there was still plenty of hard work to be done inside. Because of the varying ages (seventh grade to twelth grade), picking music was a bit difficult. Scheduling practice that could in- volve junior and senior high was also a problem. The band came through it all and performed the Christmas con- cert successfully. Eleven band members attended county band in Greencastle. These members included Joe Lane, Bron Greathead, Celeste Thomas, Mike Hess, Laurie Cordell, Michele Car- baugh, Judy Kerlin, Lisa Daniels, Chris Conners, Renee Hann. and Tommie Howells. District band also proved to be exciting. Despite weath- er conditions, four members still at- tended. Celeste Thomas, Lori Shade, Holly Johnson, and Bron Greathead were the four seniors who attended the event held at Curwensville Area High School. The band finished the year with a spring concert and Memorial Day Pa- rade. Left: Pre-concert preparation. Below left: This year's jazz ensemble added a nice touch to the Christmas concert.

Only one boy was brave enough to join the senior chorus, and the junior chorus sported only three boys. The groups adjusted well and provided good music for their audi- ences throughout the year. The Senior Chorus presented Christmas and spring concerts. At the Christmas concert a special ensem- ble. the show choir, livened up the program with Rock Around the Christmas Tree.” Junior Chorus also gave two con- certs, one at Christmas and one in the spring. The junior show choir also performed at a Christmas open house at the Fulton House. Both choruses were well represent- ed at county chorus which was held at Southern Fulton Junior-Senior High School.

The club learned new things such as pro- jecting their voices, learning lines, de- veloping technique and taking stage direction. The Drama Club worked very hard and set one long term goal.

MHS Creativity Thrives In Art Club If you loved to dabble around and just create, the Art Club was for you. They welcomed anyone who was in- terested in creative activities and had the talent and extra time. As usual, one of the main projects of the art club was to create a senior play set. They were the key in the designing, building, and painting of a believable surrounding for the imagi- nary world the play created. This year, many long hours were spent after school in preparation. Although this club may not have been as well know n as other organiza- tions at MHS, they remained among the top. Without them, the creative talent of all the students involved in the play could not have shined through.

Students and teachers were al- ready overanxious with the grueling contest that took place. Students were arguing among themselves about who will win. Teachers were looking mis- takenly over the crowd wondering who will leave on the first stretcher. All bets were placed and the game was ready to begin. This reporter then went to the eighth grade bleacher to get an inter- view from a typical student. Ahh. here comes a young man. Hello young man. Who do you and your comrades expect to win this challenging tournament. “Well, the teachers will probably win. but we students aren't going to go down without a fight!! Well, now you know that the stu- dents are sticking behind their friends on the floor. Then they arrived, first the teach- ers then the students. After a few practice shots the ten starters lined up and the ball was thrown ... After thirty minutes of elbows flying and heads crunching, the game was over. The stretchers weren’t needed this time, since no one was seriously hurt. At the end of the game the score was tied at 19 each, but those officials looked curiously young. The Student Council sponsers many events which make the year more interesting. Of these, the stu- dent vs. teachers basketball game is the most important and popular. This year the students kept the game alive and tied the teachers at 19. An amaz- ing feat!!

It took many of practice and hard work. It was very tough to receive the honor of being in the club. To cam a varsity jacket, a girl had to letter two consecutive years in a varsi- l sport, and a boy had to accumulate six points, participation in each sport counting toward the points.

The Rook and his court moved toward the battle and the Queen radioed the plan. White’s Bishop ran into an ambush and was sacrificed. The division mourned but the Queen moved in protected by the Knight. The King was captured and the battle was won. The MHS chess tournament goes much the same way. Top Standing: Hogn Hoffman.

Those who excelled in scho- lastic activities were rewarded by be- ing inducted into the National Honor Society. National Honor Society in- ducted people who exemplified the qualities set down by the founding fa- thers of the Honor Society, which are intelligence, leadership, and citizen- ship. However, most people didn't make it into the Honor Society. But, recog- nition was provided by making either the Distinguished Honor Role or Regular Honor Role. Through achieving a preset number of A's and B’s, a student could gain some satis- faction for all of the hard work. Most of the top students must use the library to gain information. After a short time, the returned books would start piling up all over the place. However, never fear, the li- brary aides were there. They kept the library running as smoothly as satin on glass.

RiRht — It seems like everyone turns out for i parade in McConnellsburg. Community p e r f e c t “Grandson, don’t forget McCon- nellsburg when you leave. That's one flaw of Homer's. He went off to col- lege and sort of never returned. He had a lot of friends and a lot of memo- ries in McConnellsburg. Grandson, Fulton County is one of the nicest places to live. There isn’t too much of one thing. Just the right amount cold and heat, perfectly balanced. Fulton County and McConnellsburg are part of fading rural America. 128 Community Life in the Fast Lane Life in the fast lane is living in Ful- ton County. Fulton County is the fas- test county in the world. It is teaming with speeding farm tractors and old rusted out automobiles. In McCon- nellsburg, the county scat, the lights don't go out until 9:00 at night. In McConnellsburg can be found the world famous Fulton Theater, Pit- man's Arcade. Pete’s Pub, and John- nie's Diner. For the tourists, the world class accomodations of Johnnie's Mo- tel can be found right next to the din- er. Yes, Fulton County is a play- ground for the rich and the jet set. The typical jet setter in Fulton County gets up at 7:00 AM and heads for the cow barn. After a day of hard work on the farm, he's ready for a night on the town. He goes into town and drives up main street. Then he drives back down main street. After repeating this process several times, he decides that there is nothing to do in town and drives back home. He spends the remainder of the evening relaxing in front of the television. He goes to bed at 9:00. When the weekend comes, it's time to head for Cowan's Gap State Park. Here one can bask in the sun on the smooth white beaches or swim in the refreshing yellow mountain water. After a day of fun in the sun, it’s time to relax and have a picnic in front of the fire. Thus ends a typical week in the life of a typical Fulton Countian. There is only one way to describe this life: life in the fast lane. Top Left; Riding in competition for 4-H, Kevin Anderson. Middle l.eft: Spectators watch for the upcom- ing floats.

As in the past years there was a pa- rade with local bands, floats, and marching people. And there was plen- ty of action at the Fair Grounds, with all kinds of sales from clothing to baked goods and the high light of the sales, a pig roast.

Occa- sionally a posed picture is just as good as a candid. 170 Closing Captured By The Camera Throughout the 1983-84 school year, student photographers roamed the halls in an attempt to capture stu- dents' expressions on film. This proved to be very difficult at times. A number of problems faced the photographer. First of all. he had to find lime to take the pictures. At times, this meant not eating lunch. Secondly, he had to try to take the pictures without the subject knowing it. This was very difficult to do. It is amazing how much attention someone gets while roaming the halls with a camera around his neck. He had to be quick, too. A funny expression on someone's face lasts only miliseconds when in the presence of a camera. Last, but not least, the photogra- phers had to cope with problems con- cerning the picture-taking process. These included: not enough light, for- getting to wind the film, and prob- lems in the dark room. The 1983-84 school year was the first year MHS offered a photogra- phy class, and it was a huge success. Student photographers took and de- veloped hundreds of pictures, many of which were used in this book. Many students even bought their own cam- eras. bo e — Todd Souders had a hard day Left — Preparing to hurl a heart at the teacher, this student is totally unaware of the photographer. Closing 171 THE LAST VUL E Grandson, the last three months of Homer's senior year were more busy than the preceeding eleven years and six months ever were. In March, the senior class got to order gradu- ation announcements. Homer didn't care too much about graduation at the time so he only ordered 25. His attitude was that if his mother didn’t send them they wasn't going to get sent. About mid-April, Homer had to start getting ready for the prom. He already had a date although I don't know how he ever got one. He had to pay for his prom pictures, rent a tux- edo, and buy a corsage for his date. This all was before prom night. Even after all of the hassel and mones. Homer still had fun at the prom. But, his wallet was drained for about the rest of the year. “After the prom on the fourth of May, Homer was making the finish- ing touches of twelve years of educa- tion. In school, he slid through his fi- nal tests and handing the books back. He couldn't wait to get out, and every day he went was one less day that he had to go. The senior trip, to Homer, was a small reward for enduring twelve years of homework. But, June 1 would be the greatest reward.

He never returned. He didn't even come to commencement that evening. I had to pick up his di- ploma after the proceedings were over. Mr. Blevins came to me and asked where Homer was. I told him that Homer walked out the front doors, and I knew that he would never be back. “Over the last 50 years, I had got- ten a few letters from old Homer. After he left, he went to the Army. From basic training, he got into mili- tary intelligence. With about ten years completed. Homer left the Army and joined the CIA. I believe that he is on an undercover mission in Russia. But don't tell anyone; that is classified information. “However. 1 don’t want to end the story on a sad note. Homer was a nice person, a friend to just about every- one. His days at McConnellsburg High School were filled with happi- ness and joy. I feel that there is just a little bit of Homer Jacoby in all of us. He might say that all of us at MHS made up Homer. Shall he never be forgotten. 174 Closing Top Left — Sometimes in life, one says that we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.
