The eye of the camera captures another memory, freezing it in a split second of time, saving it from the pre- sent’s headlong rush into the past. As the last seconds of the 70’s ticked into the 80's, the Sceptre’s camera’s pulled these memory laden seconds and pre- served them in silver and celluloid to present to you now. We are conditioned to expect changes — a new decade must bring great change. But the captured seconds of the late 70's, early 80’s revealed familiar scenes — teams sharpened their edge, , acquaintances neglected over the sum- mer were renewed at the banana eat, homecoming came and went, and the yearly cycle began again — the same, but yet, not quite the same. Come on down! It’s not lets make a deal, but Kim Hunter finds the action just as fast on the con- vincer, a machine used at the beginning of the year in drivers education. Oh, Yeah. The yearbook signing party in early Sep- tember brought friends together and silly expres- sions out as shown by Dawn Barney with Alison Huddle, Ann Dickerson and Dan Fairholm. ooPS! Kim Hawthorne encounters a moment of awkwardness seemingly complicated by Cathy Id- dings as Kelly Dean looks on. All three were in- volved in pre-season hockey practice on the “front lawn playing field.” Ph ey Clang Either the spirit or the noise seems to have gotten to Janet Mercer as Bruce Gardener bangs away on a pan at the Homecoming Pep Rally.

Go for it! Hey Jerry; winning the Banana Eat doesn’t necessarily mean a guaranteed future. Pie ‘R round. Monarch, Wendy Rogers seems to be ready to hit herself in the face with the “Spirit Pie” at the homecoming pep rally. Mr. Buchanan found that this was not the case. Trick or Treat. Deron Mason suggests a trick when he doesn’t like the treat one of his Government guest speakers has to offer. What's up? Both Jim Hall’s spirits and arm are up while he relaxes in the smoking area on Halloween. Getting their heads together. A group of Thespians take on the task of masquerading as Disney charac- ters at Chesterfield Mall during Thanksgiving break. They raised money for their club treasury. Let's face it. The new kid on the block during a pep rally just might not fit in if we judge by the expres- sion of Dan Fairholm’s face. Like it or hunch it. The Halloween spirit gets the best of Page Neal as she contemplates swinging from a bell rope during break. OUR FACES Most of the time we have to be content with having the camera catch just our everyday faces smiling above our every day clothes but occasionally we are given options. Halloween pops up presenting a perfect excuse for us to put on fantasy faces and fantastic clothes to look and be unusal for a day. There are times when straight faces become targets for cream pies. Mascot costumes need to be taken out of storage and put on. The day-to-day must give way to the simply ridiculous. Our fanta- sy selves must be taken out of their clos- ets and aired in the real world; must be made to say hello to our real world selves and remind them to smile and laugh and dream. Through our fantasies we reach out to others and get in touch with our- selves. Remember when we were crazy? Wasn't it fun? Wasn’t it fantastic? Fight back. A sign that people in Richmond are very aware of the continuing bad situation in Iran. Shocked! Surrounded by all the clothes a person could want, Jeanne Lohner registers dismay at how much they cost. They know! The students in Fashion Merchandis- ing, with their knowledge of clothing are well aware of the high cost of clothes. Pump, be kind! The expression on Tricia Ham- mond’s face as she fills her tank shows what is probably happening to the figures behind her. Hard facts Senior boys in Mr. Brian Kane’s class were not spared the cold hard facts concerning President Carter’s plan to reinstate the draft. Hard Work! Anyone involved in sports, like Donna Sammons, can tell you how much effort goes into training for meets. One can well imagine the dismay of the athletes who were to have gone to the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow. As we began our school year in the normal ways and had our brief moments of silliness, we found ourselves con- fronted by some pretty sobering reality. Americans were still being held cap- tive in the American embassy in Tehran, even.after a rescue attempt in which eight American soldiers died: President Carter spoke of re-instating the draft, something which would affect our Sen- iors — all too soon. Russia boldly invad- ed Afghanistan, and our Olympic ath- letes were asked to boycott the Moscow games in protest of the aggression, caus- ing much controversy. The cost of food, clothing, and fuel (up to $1.20 per gallon) continued to climb — making some necessities fall suddenly into the luxury class. The days went by and tensions contin- ued to grow as we wondered how all of this would eventually affect us, the builders of tomorrow. FACING ’80 ssssseseseeeene SPECIAL EVENTS Click! As each event in the year passed by it soon became just a memory. There were many special events to choose from ranging from the Broadway musical “Hel- | lo Dolly’ to the Miss Meadow- brook pageant. Almost unnoticed were the clicks of the cameras capturing each event to make a special re- cord fo r you to look back on. Blastoff!

Monday was named class colors day. Tuesday was the football find but was 3 elimanated due to “Foul Play.” School colors day was next; students decked out proudly in blue and old gold. Thursday | afternoon was a busy one as students decorated their assigned halls. After judging, it was pointed out that all the halls were decorated beautifully with ballons, streamers and signs, but only one class could win. The Seniors hall placed first while the Sophomores hung on to a close second. ‘On Friday the scedule was altered for the outdoor Pep Rally at the end of the day. Students showed tremendous spirit. and didn’t stop yelling even after Mr. Spirit (Mr. Larry Buchanan) was hit in the face with a pie. , The Spirit Chain, sponsored by the Key Club, was also a big success. The most number of links was bought by the Seniors with again Sophomores in sec- ond and Juniors closely behind. It was announced that Seniors had won the the Spirit Jug. After the Pep Rally, many students went home to get ready for the game or helped complete one of the beautiful floats.

The announcement came that the seniors had won Spirit Week. Then came the decision of floats - the sopho- mores came in first with their theme of “Send the Trojans Back to Oz” with the juniors float “Rack, Sack, and Pack the Trojans” coming in second. Halftime started off with a bang. The marching band, led by Dawn Barney, performed with that spirit inspired by Mr. Minnigh. The Homecoming Court and their es- corts proceeded onto the field; they are as ss Homecomi her reign as follows: Freshmen Dawn Craz, Becky Strobel; Sophomores Kim Hawthorne, Robin Johnson; Juniors Robin Under- wood, Vicky Layne, Lisa Wauford; Sen- iors Tammy Privatera, Paula Allan, Sher- try Dodson, Alison Huddle (Maid of Honor), and Janet Mercer. Mr. Buchanan and the 1979 Home- coming Queen, Lora Lenhart, crowned the new Homecoming Queen Tammy Privatera. The game unfortunately ended with the Monarchs-0, and the Trojans-28. But everyone took the loss in stride and went home looking forward to the dance on Saturday.

Everyone remembers a good time so the cheerleaders thought “Remember the Good Times” would be an appropriate theme for the dance. According to many who attended, the theme said it all. “Avatar”, the band, played music to rock our loss away. Students decked out in fancy dresses and “spiffy suits” “got down” to the beat. The Varsity and J.V. cheerleaders worked hard from 6a.m. to 4p.m. on Sat- urday to create an atmosphere to sur- round the dancers with memories of the past.

LOOK MA, NO CLOTHES For the fourth consecutive year the Drama Department’s fall production was a childrens show. This year it was The Emperor’s New Clothes. Over the years the attendence has grown and grown. The combination of weeks of hard work and years of building an excellent repu- tation with the counties elementary schools and the Courthouse, brought a record attendence of over 5,600 elemen- tary school children. Nine matinee’s were given and standing room only was the order of the day. “Break-a-Leg” is the good luck saying in theatre before a performance goes on. This year one of the leads (Bryan Tun- nell) took it literally and broke his foot, but there’s also another saying ‘The Show Must Go On”! It did, with much support from the “cast and crutch.” A broken foot was tough enough but con- vincing a Senior (Mark Lawhorne) to ap- : pear on stage in long pink underwear he ! ‘8 iwas areal challenge.

HO! HO! HO! Christmas at Meadowbrook just wouldn’t be right without the Christmas concert, presented this year by more than 120 students. The performance got off to a good start when the orchestra gave their rendition of “Yuletide Fanta- sy” led by Miss Laurie Collins. Then came the fervorous voices from the choirs led by Mr. Earl Binns. All the choirs gave the audience a ‘“Wintertime Aglow.” A visit from Santa Clause was no sur- prise, but when Mrs. clause showed up, everyone was thrilled. Mr. and Mrs. Clause bid their good wishes and gave candy to the very young and the young at heart before they made way for the band, conducted by Mr. M.L. Minnigh. The band filled our hearts with Christ- mas joy when they played themes from the Nutcracker suite. For a grand finale the band, combined choruses, and former graduates formed together to perform for the audience The Hallelujah Chorus. This definately left the audience aglow with the true spirit of Chirstmas. Snowflakes keep fallin’ on my head The mixed chorus waits for the wave of Mr. Binns’ hand.

Yes you've got to have guts to stand up in front of more than 600 people and tell them your favorite person, place or thing. This was just a part of what our “southern bells” had to go through in this years Miss Meadow- _ brook Pageant. The talents, ranging from a stand-up com- edy routine to baton twirling, gave the girls quite a challenge, especially since they had less than a month to prepare, but perhaps the most challenging was done by the six finalists when they picked questions at random and had to respond with their opinion. This years contestants were Freshmen: Diana Kane and Becky Strobel. Sophomores: Leslie Henry, Robin Johnson and Dana Peake. Juniors: Rachel Elliot, Mitzi Long, Robin Un- derwood and Lisa Wauford, Seniors: Paula Al- len, Sheryl Horning, Allison Huddle, Janet Mercer and Sharon Vaughn. It was hard enough for the six judges to go from fourteen contestants to six but when they had to to with one this was definately a close competition. It was so close that there was a tie in the runner-up category between Lisa Wauford and Sheryl Horning. After tak- ing the title Miss Congeniality, Sharon Vaughn was further surprised to be crowned Miss Meadowbrook 1980.

The concerts were seperat- ed this year because of the large number of students involved. The Jazz Concert, given on Sunday May 18th, included the Jazz band and Vocal ensemble. The Spring Concert on Monday night in- cluded all of the choirs, bands and the orchestra. The orchestra opened up the concert with their rendition of Merri- ment. The orchestra featured Sharon Wood who played solo on the violin. The orchestra was directed by Miss Laurie Collins. The combined Girls Ensemble and Mixed Choir did a version of “My Fair Lady”. Mr. L. Minnigh helped helped along the chorus by portraying Jimmy Duranty in A Fun Songathon. The audi- ence was up in a roaring laughter when he came out on stage decked in his hat and big nose (detachable of course). The Vocal Ensemble featured Dawn Barney and Tim Jones with a duet that “wowed” the audience. The band presented up and lively numbers such as the Muppet Movie Medley and the theme from Barnaby Jones. The whole spring concert was devoted “ to up and lively songs that brought the a © nad 4 audience into more of the spring mood.

WHERE THERE’S A BILLTHERE’S How often have you heard someone say - well that’s a great idea, but where do we get the money? This was heard often by organizations at Meadowbrook and before the echos of that question had died away someone always yelled - have a fund raiser! It was the fund raisers that provided much of the most anticipated entertain- | 5 aa els ' S ment during the year. iio a. Early in the year the Dribblethon “en brought dollars to the basketball teams, followed closely by the mini-olympics which added more revenue to the faculty scholarship fund. The scholarship was enlarged to $1,200.00 by a raffle held in May. The Ist prize a stereo was won by Thelma Wyatt’s son and the second prize a 10 speed bike was won by senior Bren- da Barnes During the year one had a choice of other activities and edible and non-ed- ible goodie’s such as the Wednesday night Bingo games sponsored by the Athletic Association who also sponsored Azalea sales in the spring, a fashion show put on by Fashion Merchandising in May and bake sales by various groups. There were numerous dances, the Lift-a-thon, the Mess Meadowbrook show in late May, a concert by the Heights of Grass to give a boost to the Muse which had earlier sponsored a book fair. be If the fund raisers were brought to a ipa Grice Cardia uta oa screeching halt there would have been Rewspaper. little entertainment, and lots of empty stomachs around Meadowbrook. � Volu “athe g¥m@ with Ruth Joh brool ) the fundraiser e Clogging music The Heights of Grass plays the bar eat Ae at) P the faculty raffle stud theme song from the “Beverly Hillbillies’ at the k ’ el BF ual hack BO ez 4 te, of al winnerlia. ..

The hours of hard work were forgotten when the actors went on stage bringing their characters alive against a colorful set de- signed by Jerry Dagenhart. “... Dolly” was the first musical pro- duced at Meadowbrook requiring a chor- eographer — Mr. Sterling Hawkins drew upon his experience at Swift Mill Creek Playhouse to work all chorus numbers and the difficult Waiters Gallop which got quite a reaction from th e audience each night. What’s out there? Dolly (Dawn Barney) sings to Horace (Jerry Dagenhart) as he looks out the win- dow of the hat shop in curiosity. Open Wide Dolly Levi (Dawn Barney) works on a solution to Felecia Woolard and Mr. Kemper (Tim Jones) romantic problems.. The fast paced costume changes which had to be executed without smearing ma- keup became quite a challenge for all the actors. As the curtain closed on April the 26th, it was realized that this was closing night, the culmination of all the hard work, and tears flowed, many from the eyes of Seniors such as Mark Lawhorne who expressed this feeling, “After the show I cried my heart out because I knew that I could never work with such won- derful people again.” The Seniors had all realized that this would be their last high school production. “It only takes...’ Mike Harrah, Anne Dickerson, Jeff Brown and Sherry Balser sing the finale in the last moments of “Hello Dolly”. . @ BS - s) . r ‘id : ‘ eg OES = ; say + an st ame 4) . . = - erect Sa? ye RE, oar ee We've got Elegance Carol Kiger, Bo Wilson, Rob Culbertson and Leslie Driver practice their ele- gance on their way to the Harmonia Gardens Res- taurant.

How about the day you and your special friend sat out in the courtyard during all three lunches just holding hands and talking. Or that morning you awoke so tense and nervous, and then had your fears banished when your egg project survived that terrible fall from the roof. Maybe it was a pep rally where you and your classmates really went crazy and perhaps acted a bit too silly, or an assem- bly where you were the one down front being honored. And that day that seemed just too mundane to get through, bright- ened just because you and your friends sat in the smoking area talking about love and life. Or that one morning when the effort to get out of bed seemed use- less but was found to be worthwhile when you joined the XL—102 airforce. Who would have ever thought you you would enlist in the military? Throughout all of those days spent at school, some were bound to be real bum- mers, but there were others that eclipsed the rest. Those rare, special days that made Meadowbrook a more bearable place. Friends. A good day for some catching up brings Gene Russell and Susan Shearwood together with friends in the smoking area.

Since activi- ties period was eliminated, a spe- cial problem arose. All meetings had to be held after school and because of other obligations such as jobs, and and sports - member- ships declined in most clubs but activities didn’t, fund raising went on, parties and other special weekend activities were held, and a special effort by the SCA to wipe out apathy continued.

STRIVING FOR UNITY With new ideas and increased enthusi- asm, the SCA became more active than ever this year. The newly elected officers began work early in the school year planning activities. Most of the activities required much planning, and therefore a time to rest between projects was rare. Starting the year by clearing up “begin- ning of school” confusion, the SCA sponsored orientation. The next project was the homecoming float - ‘Memories of My Homecoming” - for the prin- cesses. Once again the SCA sponsored the Thanksgiving canned food drive, and also presented Christmas stockings to the Crippled Children’s Hospital and the Hening Special Ed. Children. Perhaps the major undertaking of the SCA this year was trying to combat the apathy problem. The SCA first pinpoint- ed the problem and then sent out surveys asking students how they felt. In March, they sponsored a contest for the home- rooms with the directions to create a bul- letin board with a pro-Meadowbrook theme. Some of the other projects were Miss Meadowbrook, the Banana Eat, Court- yard Beautification, and sending 2 stu- dents to Boy’s and Girl’s State. Under the enthusiastic leadership of Sponsor Linda Davidson, President Dan Fairholm, and the rest of the Executive Council, the SCA had a very successful year. 37 AND THE BAND PLAYEDON ... In the fall, the marching band pro- vided entertainment at football games as they performed to a wide variety of tunes under the direction of hardworking Drum Major Dawn Barney. Every after- noon, the school resounded with music as the members of the marching band perfected their footwork and prepared for their performances. After football season, the band, under the expertise of director Mr. Minnigh, concentrated their efforts on concert and festival material. One exciting event for the band was marching in the Williams- burg Christmas Parade on December 1. The group shots of the band were taken there by Mrs. Gywn Prideaux. For many students being in the band offered a unique opportunity to meet a lot of people with a common interest in music and to gain musical experience. The band is composed of approximately 70 members of which over 60 march. Band members practice diligently throughout the year to produce the best band possible.

Captain Nancy Gazzola and her eleven member squad performed in Williamsburg for the Annual Christ- mas Parade, and in Urbanna at the Ur- banna Oyster Festival. They were also present at every football game, and en- tertained the school during the pep ral- lies with routines that reflected much hard work and practice.

The majorettes also repre- sented Meadowbrook at the Williams- burg Christmas Parade, in Urbanna at the Annual Oyster Festival, and at a pa- rade in Emporia. The majorettes worked long hours formulating and practicing difficult routines, but it all paid off be- cuase of the result - - - Perfection! Intently watching a pep rally, majorettes Lisa Beck and Suzanne Stephens look between the rails. 1979 - 80 Majorettes: Front Row Sheila Hailey, Terri Stimis (captain), Back Row Cassie Evans, Sherry Balser, Suzzanne Stephens, Tammy Hester, Lisa Beck Discoin’ down at the majorette sponsored dance, Jimmy Bixby and Paige Neal strut their stuff. Sponsoring the majorettes isn’t all hard work as shown by Mrs. Plageman and Coach Bob Placeman as they have a little fun on the side. Any day you found yourself in the hall behind the auditorium, the sound of voices blended together to get ready for the various concerts, and contests during the year could be heard. The voices came from Mr. Earl Binn’s chorus room where he taught the performing chorus groups as classes. There were performances at Cloverleaf Mall during Christmas, County festivals throughout the year and the traditional Christmas and spring concerts here at school - finished off by the graduation exercises.

Over and over until it’s perfect.” Director of the band, Mr. L. Minnigh was often heard saying this to his classes; stage band, Jazz band, workshop band and the marching concert band (covered on page 38-39). Meadowbrook has the only Jazz band in the county. For 55 minutes a day the band students worked diligently on their music to bet- ter their playing ability. The skill devel- oped came in handy in the county music festivals at which the bands rated consis- tenlly high. All of the instrumental groups were involved in the Christmas concert, Spring concert, and graduation as well as performances all over the state during the year.

ANNUAL HOUSE A deadline is just around the corner - all your negatives are still on the board waiting to be printed, your copy is reject- ed because of recurring adjectives such as great’ and “lovely”, and your layouts look just great until you notice that there is no room for any captions. In keeping with the recent ‘Animal House” craze, this year’s ‘wild ’n crazy” Sceptre staff fit right in. The inexperi- enced staff started off rather badly, but really got into the swing of things later in the year. A yearbook consists of the same, yet different, elements every year. The Sceptre staff attempted to preserve memories and present this year’s events in a single volume. Doing this is hard work, and requires much dedication, work, and patience from each member of the staff. Long hours must be put into writing copy, selecting photographs, de- signing pages, typing, searching for in- formation, wading through stacks of negatives, and just plain thinking. Al- though a job on the Sceptre staff does not offer the best working hours (days, nights, and weekends!) it offers such benefits as pride in accomplishment as you see all your hard work of the past months come together in an edition of the yearbook. Superb! Brenda Barnes works on Senior superla- tives as Richie Raford compiles sports data. Putting his weight into it.

Searching for the right words, Sherry Dodson com- poses copy for the senior section. 48 Pen flying, Paul Setaro compiles news from around school into a Medallion article. The Medallion met weekly this year to discuss ideas, experiment in writing, and learn to produce a news- paper. A new format was incorporated which helped generate a new interest in the newspaper. The Medallion encountered prob- lems because of the small number of dedicated staffers. Although the actu- al number fluctuated throughout the year, approximately only six staff members endeavored perserveringly to produce the '79-’80 Medallion. But new ideas helped to expand the paper, and the special Christmas issue pro- vided a new avenue of literary expres- sion for students. The Medallion staff felt its accom- plishments and was proud to serve the school and community through their efforts. Long hours of writing and editing, layouts and design, and pain- ful delays from the printer were well worth the successful end result. Medallion Staff.

D S AT WORK The Muse was unqiue from any of the other publications at Meadowbrook in that the literary magazine consisted en- tirely of students’ work. Each student was given the opportunity to submit their poetry, prose, essays, stories, or artwork for publication in the Muse. Long hours were put into designing pages, editing, typing, and preparing the material for publication. To help cover costs the Muse held a Book Fair in the fall and sponsored a concert featuring Staff Judi White, Vicki Newman, Sponsor Mrs. the Heights of Grass. The tremendous Lux, Philip Jarvis, Gayle Keene, Charles Keffer ticket sales attested to the fact that Mea- eat cok dowbrookers could really get into the good ol’ Blue Grass music they played. It’s a tough job! Sponsor Mrs. Lux and Philip Jarvis work diligently to produce the Muse. a’ ; £. i 9 Foot stompin’ good!

One of the five honor organizations at Meadow- brook High School is the International Honorary High School Journalism Society better known as The Quill and Scroll Society. This organization consisted of students in one or more of the three literary publications at M.H.S. These students were nominated by their sponsors for their outstan- ding contributions to each of these publications. Members of The Quill and Scroll had the re- sponsibility for publishing the Senior newspaper and distributing it to all the seniors on classnight. This society has also established the annual fund raising event of the Mess Meadowbrook Pageant which delights participants as well as administra- tion and audience. A second honor society is the National Honor Society which selects it members for having at least a B average and leadership qualities. In June, the society had an Honors Banquet for all students on the honor roll and their parents. About 225 people attended the banquet held in the cafeteria. The society members were also kept busy tutor- ing class mates who were weak in certain academic areas and they took their turn at keeping the school grounds clean. “new!

The Class of ’81 remained undefeated as they pulled to another victory in this year’s History Club - sponsored Tug-of- War. Their most attended movie was the chilling ‘Night of the Living Dead,” and their other movies were also successful fund-raisers. Each fall the History Club holds inter- views for candidates, and then the lucky inductees are made to arrive at school dressed as famous historical figures. Some students were rather surprised to see such people as Julius Caesar, Annie Oakley, and Amelia Earhart wandering through MBK’s halls. Another event sponsored by the hon- orary historical society is the Battle of the Brains contest between classes. In the finals, the Senior team of Rob Culbert- son, Grady Daniel, Mike Harrah, and Bo Wilson defeated the Junior team of Ka- ren Cowles, Dang Hoang, Jenny Martin, and Doug Updegrove. Heave Ho! With a mighty pull, the Juniors are victorious once again in the Tug-of-War. The Foreign Language Club consists of those students who are studying French, Spanish, Latin, and German. Al- though their numbers were lacking this year, their enthusiasm was not. This was evident in the Homecoming Parade when the club members dressed in the native costume for their language and carried appropriate signs. Another exam- ple of this enthusiasm was the warm welcoming and farewell parties for this year’s foreign exchange student, Manuel Menendez. In April the club sponsered a Foreign Language Week. This was a week of cul- ture and international learning in which the students participated in a variety of activities. They had such events as a for- eign mystery person contest, a volleyball game between the different languages and their annual banquet. The unique admission price for the banquet was to bring a covered dish representing a for- eign country. This cultural week proved that although there may be superficial language and cultural differences, they all have a great deal in common. COSTUMES AND CUISINE “Headed” for the guillotine?

The candidates must be enrolled in a math class for credit and must make at least one A as a year’s average. The Math Club inducted 25 new members this year, which brought the total membership number to about 45. The club also sponsored the annual Mu Alpha Theta test, a national contest. This year, Sophomore Rick Chancellor received the highest score at Meadow- brook; the test was taken by 50 calculus, analysis, Algebra II-Trig., and geometry students. At the end of May, the club had a picnic at Forest Hill Park to honor new members and departing seniors.

Along with Sponsor Mr. Brandt, the members used their knowledge as they explored different aspects of nature. This year the Science Club canoed at Occupa- cia Creek near Tappahanock, and also explored Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge in Sandbridge, Virginia. No one discovered any lost civilizations on their archaeological dig in Hanover County, but they did all have a fun time. Braving the wilds, Dwayne Whitt explores Occu- pacia Creek by canoe.

The team consisted of ju- nior Doug Updegrove, and seniors Rob £3 Culbertson, Dean Driver, Mike Harrah; ; te Bo Wilson and Grady Daniel were the alternates. For the first time this year, the [ men beat out the ladies, and we had an all-male team. To prepare for their TV debut, the group had a few practice sessions togeth- 1 er, but studied more extensively on their own. The questions asked dealt with sci- ence, math, sports, history, geography, music, art, theatre, current events, and believe it or not, various other topics. Unfortunately, the guys were defeated in the first round of competition against Jefferson-Huguenot-Wythe. But the team worked hard, and they deserve credit for all their efforts.

The categories in For- ‘ ensics include oral interpretations, dra- matic soliloquy, and extemperaneous speaking. The debate team gained recognition for Meadowbrook as they walked away with numerous honors from. various tournaments. They became veteran trav- elers as they went to tournaments all over the state, and even to Gatlinburg, Tennes see. Some of their out-of-towners included tournaments at VMI in Lexing- ton, JMU in Harrisonburg, and Long- wood in Farmville. At the Greater Rich- mond Debate Tournament, both the af- firmative and negative teams took first place and also the honor of best overall team. In the districts, they captured first place affirmative and negative again, and placed first and second in switchside. The latter victories were also repeated in the regionals, and then the team went on to state. Although they did not fare so well there, the team deserves a lot of credit for all their hard work. The subject for debate this year was “Resolved: The federal government should significantly change the foreign trade policy,” and captain Billy Stephens earned the most speaker points. Debate requires much research and mental prep- aration, and from this year’s successful results we can see that they had done both.

The Meadowbrook chess club is an organization for the enjoyment of stu- dents who like an intellectual challenge. The members participate in matches with other schools and also in individual contests within the school. These “chess- nuts” get together once a week to shar- pen their skills and prepare for the up and coming matches. When asked about the purpose of the chess club, President Steve Winters remarked, “. . . to present the thrill of mental combat and to keep a high standard of achievement in the Meadowbrook student body.” Totally thrilled!

The FHA also held cake raffles at all of the home football games and a Christmas Tea and Bazaar on De- cember 19.

Redstrom The Key Club, which is sponsored by the local Kiwanis Club, did various ser- vice projects for the school and commu- nity this year. They earned over $450 by selling links to the Spirit Chain during Homecoming Week. By raffling off tickets to the Mol- ly Hatchet concert,the club also profit- ted. This money went for such things as new flags for the school, a contribution to the government classes’ Newsweek fund, and the sponsoring of one junior at Boy’s State. The Key Clubbers saved football spec- tators from a lot of confusion by serving as parking attendants at the home games. They also raised and lowered the flags each morning and afternoon dur- ing the school year. Among clubs at Meadowbrook, few stood out as being as helpful and benefi- cial to the community as the Keyettes, the sister organization to the Key Club. The 39 members sold almost 400 boxes of Krispy Kremes for contributions to the Multiple Sclerosis Society and Inter- national Keyettes. The club also profit- ted from a second doughnut sale in May. The Keyettes adopted a grandmother and grandfather, and the members visited and did things for them each week. At Christmas time they made door decora- tions for the residents of the Chesterfield Nursing Home, and also played Bingo with them. The Keyettes enjoyed the social activi- ties and fellowship. Having fun and helping people at the same time is one of the things Keyettes is all about. ‘ees oe TT eo a as ere 3 iy ahaa ‘In a NOTHINGS DOING!

It's hard to show enthusiasm, spirit, and increasing pep for teams that evoke little spectator response, but MBK’s Rah- Rahs did, and did a fantastic job. Their presence seemed to inspire the crowds enough to support their teams as they should be supported. Not only did they inspire the crowds, they did their best to inspire the athletes. They made patches that the players sported during school, and made announcements in the morning to wish the teams good luck. But besides being the center of spirit at MBK, the cheerleaders worked hard and long this year to put on the Homecoming Dance that everyone enjoyed-but no-one knew who to accredit the success to. They also worked hard at their cheer- ing and placed second in the Tobacco Bowl Festival. These girls are certainly a group that deserved our respect and thanks. “If you wanna be a Monarch clap your hands,” says Becky Strobel as she attempts to draw spirit from the MBK crowd. “Good Times” The J.V.

First year coach Dick Over- ton concentrated on rebuilding the teams poise and confidence. Breaking a twenty — game losing streak was the highlight of the season. The coaches and players put in hard work this year and in the future it will pay off. The most valuable player for 1979 was Ricky Hallinan.

IT’S HOW YOU PLAY THE GAME The Tough Monarch Defense is set are ready for action. Under the coaching staff of Mr. Bruce MacDougall and Mr. Scott Duprey, the J.V. football team compiled a 3-5-1 over- all record, winning over Midlothian, Byrd, and Matoaca. Although the record doesn’t show it, this was a very success- ful season. The players had to work hard, averaging about 22 hour practices ever- yday. But the coaches also had a tough job, teaching blocking techniques, tack- ling and conditioning, as well as the of- fensive and defensive plays, Meadow- brook will in the future. The captains also played an important part, by start- ing practices, keeping team spirit up, as well as other jobs. The captains were Todd Tiller, James Stafford, and George Fuller. Coach Dick Overton seemed very pleased with the talent of these boys and their ability to work hard. “The coaching staff feels they im- proved every game” commented Coach Bruce MacDougal, “The 9th graders have built a strong basis for the team next year, and the 10th graders are defi- nitely ready for Varsity. All in all, it was a very successful season.” “P.Oed.” James Stafford, Todd Tiller and Scott Shapiro look very mad at halftime.

An off-season mo- torcycle accident involving Coach Lee started the injury list, and it continued to climb from then on. Tammy Privatera, Lisa Wauford, and Susan Garr all rode the bench at one time or another, and many of the teams’ losses were due to weaknesses at different posi- tions left vacant by these injuries. Losses to Marshall-Walker were the main cause of the teams’ failure to reach the regionals for a second year, but an- other factor was the 42-38 setback in the last regular season game against Peters- burg. This dropped the team to fourth place behind Colonial Heights who reached the regionals. In a game such as girls’ basketball, which has revolutionalized so much in the past ten years, the Lady Monarchs have kept up, not from size and speed, but rather talent and brains. The fact is they have a versatile and talented coach in Mrs. Sandra Lee.

Basketball team finished their season with a record of 9 wins and 9 losses. The main reason for this record was due to the size of their opponents and the lack of rebounds. The Lady Monarchs averaged 22 points per game while their opponents averaged 25 per game. This was not only a low aver- age for us, but also for our opponents as well. Our girls remained tough and showed a quick defense throughout the season. Coach Cathers thought the sea- son was very successful. He commented, “Given the size we had, it was a very successful season.

Lohr helped his team to a series of victories that led to cross-country’s first winning season. “The 8 and 6 record compiled this year may be topped next year,” says Coach Steve Madison, “even though the team will lose Seniors T. J. Lohr and Mike McPherson.” A new addition to the team who sparked considerable interest was Fresh- man Pam Gizzi. There was not one meet in which Pam participated that she did not place ahead of one of the boys. Due to Pam’s outstanding accomplishments, Coach Steve Madison is now talking of a Girl’s cross-country team for the future. Willie Simmons, Brian Sadler, David Terry, Benny Sillmon, Danny Mauren, Dang Hoang, Ken Wilson and Corey Chalkley also succeeded in making tracks to a victory for Meadowbrook. The only down note in this year’s cross- coutry’s rosy record was the lack of school support. Coach Madison feels that more interest and enthusiasm should be shown to cross-country, one of the winning teams at Meadowbrook. Life in the Fast Lane. By running cross-country, Ken Wilson experiences this. Running on Empty? No Way!

Fierce determination was a necessary factor for any Lady Monarch wishing to survive this year’s hockey season. Den- ise Watson experienced the most bruatal blow when she fielded a ball with her nose during the Central District Field Hockey Tournament. This is just one of the examples of the roughness the Lady Monarchs had to battle throughout their season. Such teams as Hopewell and Midlothian had not only aggressive players, but poor sports on and off the field. But the ladies were determined to retain their self-esteem, and they never once lowered themselves to the levels of the other teams. Although all the ladies suffered minor injuries at the hands of their opponents, the team held tight and went on to have a winning season and placed second in the district. When asked about her hopes for next year, Mrs. Rusher replied, “With 14 out of 16 girls returning, they will definitely be strong contenders for a district title.” Skill is the key word here as Kelley Dean and Denise Watson dribble down the field under the watchful eye of the guest VCU coach.

Some of the outstanding wrestlers were James Hughes, and Steve Moss who placed first and second respectively in their weight class when participating in the Christ- mas Tournament. Needless to say, Ricky “Steamboat” Hallinan steamed his way to victory after victory until at the end of the season he was undefeated in the un- limited weight class. He placed first in the district, fourth in the regionals and finally twelfth in the state. Really super job on Ricky’s part! Senior Steve Barham also enjoyed many victories and placed second in the district in the 185 weight class. These boys could always be count- ed on for a win and often saved the Mon- arch men from defeat. Overall, the Meadowbrook Grapplers had many good things happen to them this season, and Coach Overton says that he expects bigger and better things in the future for the remaining Monarchs. ebspitbnipe eve IEA IE “Pin him!” Ricky Hallinan yells as the rest of his teammates urge the wrestler on in their minds.

These Pele enthusiasts had a record of 7 wins, 1 loss, and one tie game. They scored a total of 24 goals and al- lowed only 9 goals by opposing teams. An impressive record for the first year team! As proven by their record, the players were tops with Matt Bost, Jerome Dan- iels (co-captains), R.J. Redstrom, and Larry Lenhart all being chosen for the number one All-District Team. Four oth- er team members were chosen for the number two team-Andrew Burton, Greg Hallinan, Randy Knowles, and Austin Whitaker. Being the only Meadowbrook team that was coed, the team did face some problems concerning dressing facilities. Coach John Keeler remarked that there was more than one time that the female players were interrupted while donning their uniforms. To end on a more somber note, a team with so much pride and enthusiasm in their sport should have been able to ex- pect the same from the populace at Mea- dowbrook. Let’s see if we can do a better job next year, we've finally got a winner! Geesy-Peesy!

Although they were 0-11 on the road (motion sickness from the bus?), they pulled off an impressive string of upsets and close scoring games with top competition on their home court. They finished the season with a 5-16 record. One of the most exciting games was when the Trojans of Midlothian were chewed up in the Den in a 74-69 over- time by a pair of clutch free throws by senior Mac Hutton. This caused the Tro- jans to lose and never regain their sev- enth place position in the scholastic polls. In the final week of the season, our boys were beaten by a very trying Mar- shall-Walker team, 137-58. Said Coach Plageman of the lopsided score, “I would have pulled my boys off the court and gone home when they (Marshall-Walker) kept their starters on the court for the start of the fourth period .. . but we thought there might not be enough po- lice protection to make it out safely.” Coming back tired and beaten to host Petersburg, the team showed that they were determined young men when John Byrd sank 22 foot jump shot with no time remaining. This tied the score with Petersburg 59-59 and sent the game into overtime. Tommy Stevens (20.8 points per game and second team all district), then sank both ends of a one on one with three seconds remaining on the clock. This gave the mighty Monarchs, for the first time in M.H‘S. history, a win over the Crimson Waves with a score of 65- 63. On the move!

Many inexperienced people made the team more of a classroom than a team this year and the boys prospered greatly. Led by Freshman guard Robby Raikes and Sophomore forward guard Robby Anderson who both had brief starts of the varsity team at the beginning of the year. The team showed great improve- ment throughout the season with their record ending 4—16. Freshmen Brian Sadler and David Byrd added great strength both as start- ers and, from off the bench, were great assets to the team. Raikes, who came down from the var- sity because of a broken finger, and An- derson, who came down three games later for more playing experience, added alot of punch to the offense with Raikes playing the point guard position and Anderson (18.7 pts. per game) playing the shooting forward position. Backing up the lead players were James Stafford, John Taylor, Todd Tiller, Charles Carter and Joe White. Coached by Dave Cathers, the returning Fresh- men to the J.V. promise to turn the team around.

GYMNASTS START OUT FRESH After a brief leave from district action of one year, Meadowbrook High fielded a gymnastics team for the ‘80 season. Composed of mostly Freshmen the team was thick with youth. There was not one senior member on the whole team. Soph- omore Venson Wallin was the lone par- ticipant who competed all-around, he was also the team captain. Greg Hallinan and Clive Hoffman were the juniors on the team and made significant contributions. The team was rounded out by fresh- man Conway Harris, Scott Keho, Mike Leonard, and sophomore Stuart May. Mike Leonard made significant showing on the high bar and outstanding on thr pommel horse. Giny King, Robin King and Richard Ledford were the managers of the team which compiled a 0-4 meet record and finished sixth in the Eastern Mid Atlan- tic sectionals. Coach Debbie Rizzo realizes that the team was youthful and that she will have all the gymnasts returnig for action next year.

The Girls Gymnastics team started their long, hard, and rigorous season on the first of November. When Coach Debbie Rizzo saw what she had to work with her comments were very much like last year’s, “I’ve got a whole lot of youth to work with.” With three freshmen, five sopho- mores, two juniors, and only one senior, this was quite an accurate assumption of the team. The lone senior, in her third year lettering, was Dana Warren who competed in every area except the bars. Anita Prestowvich was the expert of the bars for the team and was the only one to place in the districts, finishing fifth on the bars. Dana Warren, Angela Wilmouth, Ka- tie Odor, Ginny King, and Bridgette Simmons were the team’s beamers. Brid- gette Simmons, in her first year, finished the season showing great promise. Other contributions to the team were made by Vickie Williams, Robin Ed- wards, Desiree Barnett, Sarah Stewart, and Lea Handy. The team’s lone victory came over ri- val Thomas Dale and the team ended the season with a 1-7 record. Up and Over! What goes up must come down and Coach Rizzo is making sure it comes down right while Vickie Williams hangs in there. No Time to Wave. Concentration is the name of the game.

There were only a total of 12 boys on the team. Of these 12, only 2 of them scored any points the entire season. They were Aus- tin Whitaker and Greg White. This lack of participation was not only at Meadowbrook, but other area schools such as Midlothian, Colonial Heights. It has now been announced,that Coach Tucker will not be returning as track coach at Meadowbrook. Over the years he has been here (since 1969), he has seen the track program, countywide, start at a low point, and gradually rise (This is participation and quality of teams) In the years between 1975-1978, the program was at its peak. And from 1978-present has gone back on the decline. In any case, we are all saddened to have to say “Good-bye” to Coach Tucker.

The varsity baseball team truly held its own this year with a twelve and six record and placing second in the District. The starting line-up consisted mainly of seniors who were all veterans when it came to the game of baseball. But while the seniors took to the field, there were some very dedicated players who re- mained to warm the bench. They called themselves the Union. The members of this group all had two things in com- mon, they were juniors and they didn’t play too much ball. But these spirited players bound themselves together to as- suage the feelings of disappointment and boredom. Union members had T-shirt printed proclaiming their status, they delighted in posing for pictures and all in all turned a monotonous year of bench warming into one of jocularity and close friendship.

J.V. player beats the ball back to first base. “The J.V. Baseball team was inexperi- enced at their level of competition and our overall record indicated this,” said Coach Bruce MacDougall. The team re- cord was 6 wins 11 losses. The wins were helped along by the strong batting of Stuart Dalton and Robbie Raikes. Stuart Dalton also had a strong pitching arm as did Scott Shapiro and Joe White. The diverse personalities on the team probably prevented a real meshing of talents, especially since it was the first year that the majority of the boys had worked together and with Coach Mac- Dougall. Next year should prove a strong year since many of the players will be return- ing. i ‘ , Dy y és Front Row - Jeff Tyler, Mike Andrews, Stuart Dalton, Robbie Raikes, Bobby Ball, Tommy Spraker.

The record plummetted to 2-14.

The team, coached by Mr. Boston, worked diligently to improve its image and re- cord. And although the team bettered last year’s record, the underclassmen still have a way to go to match their expecta- tions. With a base of mainly seniors and ju- niors for next year, the members hope for a record comparable to past years. With Freshman Ricky Mann leading the team as the number one player, the team’s future as winners should be as- surred. A prayer for victory.

After four hard weeks of practice in sub-freezing temperatures, the team started it’s season with a six stroke victo- ry in the Richmond Golf Association Prep League Championship, while de- feating sixteen other teams. Coming off the Prep League Cham- pionship, the Monarchs suffered their only blemishing mark on their record when Prince George tied them at Prince George. Greg Howard sparked the Mon- archs with a three over par 51. The team ran off six consecutive victo- ries by rather outstanding margins, ex- cluding their match against Thomas Dale in which the team took George Har- ocopos’ 3 over par 50, 55’s from Richie Radford and Greg Howard, and a 56 from Mike Gordon and Lloyd Lenhart to win by three. In the streak the team set a course re- cord of 198 at Petersburg as Mike Gor- don (48), Greg Howard (49), George Haro- copos (49), and Rob Underwood (51) ripped the course apart. The team then headed for Quantico where Lloyd Lenhart, Greg Howard, George Harocopos and Mike Gordon played the team to a fourth place finish out of 40 teams. Mike Gordon played a fantastically strong tournament with rounds of 77, and 78 and finished 11th overall. Upon returning home the Monarchs played arch rivals Prince George and Midlothian. After avenging their only tie of the year by beating Prince George by 5 strokes, they then broke all barriers by setting a course record of 198 at Mea- Front Row - Richie Radford, Rob Underwood, A.J.

Greg Howard and Mike Gordon were co-med- alists as George Harocopos and Richie Radford rounded out the scoring. The Monarchs then swept their next two matches by 47 and 29 shots respec- tively. Leaving the Wednesday of the 21st of April, theyheaded for the biggest, most prestigious golf tournament in the South East, the Southern Cross Championship in Aiker, South Carolina. While having a great time in a relaxed atmosphere the Monarchs came away with a ninth place finish, the highest ever by a Virginia team, and and they caught all the be- tween rounds festivities promoted by the tournament and its hostesses. Greg Howard tied for tenth place overall and posted two extremly good 77’s. The scor- ing for the Monarchs was rounded out by Mike Gordon, George Harocopos and Richie Radford. The team then returned home and wiped out the previous course records at Meadowbrook Country Club as Greg Howard shot a one under par 45 to pace the team to a 192 total.

The next stop on their playing sched- ule was Princeton, West Virginia where Loyd Lenharts even par 72 paced the Monarchs to a 12 shot win as Lenhart also won overall titlest honors. Rob Un- derwood, George Harocopas and Greg Howard helped out as the Monarchs cap- tured the team title. The Monarchs returned to defend their title in the Central Regional Golf Championship, where they astounded everyone last year by winning and hav- ing George Harocopas win the individ- ual title, the Monarchs found fourty de- gree weather and a steady unending rain. The Monarchs failed to repeat as cham- pions as they finished third and did not qualify for the state championship. Mike Gordon’s 78 qualified him for the state tourney as an individual. Greg Howard, Richie Radford and Lloyd Len- hart rounded out the scoring. Senior Lloyd Lenhart is the only start- ing senior the team will lose for the next year.

Dedication tempered with interest and pride is evident in all the activities at Meadowbrook — from the drama productions to fashion shows, and from hot, sweaty football practices, to muscle fatiguing gymnastics. Anything ever accomplished is impor- tant to someone, therefore people of sedulous natures work hard to produce the desired effects for all who care and for themselves.

You haven't, you've picked up a partial list of the standardized tests administered by the guidance department during last year. This list seems long enough to occupy a department completely but add to the administering and evaluating of these tests one-to-one counseling sessions with every student in school for sched- uling, regular “how are you doing” sessions, and the daily emergencies when a counselor is the only person a student wants to talk to. In November students in Chesterfield and Powhatan were invited to College Night, organized by the guidance depart- ment, which featured representatives from over 100 colleges, and universities. Over 1000 people attended this evening event. The sign “out to lunch” was seen on the guidance office several times as the counselors left for the day to attend meetings and classes set up by the county. Mrs. Martha Rogers, the guidance secretary, maintained her skill of doing a thousand things at once as she juggled phone calls, typing work permits, compiling endless lists, knowing where “everything” was, and occasionally crack- ing everyone up with her sense of humor.

Students learned to buy, display and sell merchandise. The fashion classes put on fashion shows — one at a tea, the other for the school and community. Eight of the girls and Ms. Diane Thomas went on a trip to the garment district in New York. The D. E. classes ran Cub’s Corner during the year. At a local D. E. compe- tion, Jeff Zavilla won first place in Food Marketing, Teresa Cuneo in Sales Dem- onstration, Glenn Hudson in General Merchandising, Kent Cole in General Merchandising and Peggy Baldwin in Food Marketing. Down the hall, in the Business De- partment, students ranging from those who wanted to learn to type well enough to do school work to those who wished to make business a career took courses ranging from typing I to the block pro- gram which combined several advanced courses back to back. The students who were very serious about business usually become part of the COE program which actually placed them in jobs. The department was very proud this year to place students at places like Federal Reserve Bank, Phillip Morris, Richmond Circuit Court and with other prestigious employers. On May 22nd, the COE students fin- sished off their year with a banquet at the Abbey Restaurant. Talking it over. Mrs. Cheryl Montijio leads a class discussion.

OES THE JOB -REDIT FOR WORKING ‘Although many students spend their entire day in Academic subjects in order to go to college, quite a few of t he stu- dents at Meadowbrook had made the de- cision to go to school half of the day and work for credit the other half. The ICT program here placed students who are at least 16 and juniors. They received on the job training while they earned money in a skill or career orient- ed type of occupation. The jobs run from sales to carpentry and some students learned to operate heavy machinery. Those students who wished to receive vocational training without going direct- ly into a job generally went to the Ches- terfield Technical Center. Students wish- ing to go there had to apply and were considered based on grades, attitude and ability. Some of the areas students from Mea- dowbrook were involved in were Cosmo- tology, Horticulture, Auto Body repair, Masonry, Food services, computer, busi- ness and health care. Meadowbrook had more students in- volved in the photography program then any other school in the county. In April Tech held a vocational fair at the center for anyone wishing to see the results of a year of hard work. There were all sorts of demonstrations, plenty of good food and plants from the horti- cultural department were on sale. Hard sell. John Swineford works as an auto parts counterman at Broad Rock Auto Supply. 125 HUFFIN’ AND PUFFIN’ Sometimes the huffing and puffin’ came from running laps, other times the huffing and puffing was inflicted on ‘Annie’ when students were encouraged to “get her breathing”. If she had been real and not a manakin, the health classes would have had quite a few fu- nerals. Some other heavy breathing came from being propelled quickly down the Convincer, a machine used to show the impact of a crash at 10 miles an hour. You say that doesn’t sound like a big deal, ask someone who tried it! The rumor was that some of the huff- ing and puffing even came from so much giggling and laughing over remarks made during dicussions over certain “diseases of society” which are required study in health. This is not a task taken lightly by those who have to teach it. The heavy breathing over the tele- phone heard by some Drivers Ed stu- dents was not an obscene phone call but a driving instructor who was simply winded by racing to push all our 16 year- olds through “behind the wheel”. Since last years crop of Freshmen was so large there was a long list of those waiting to slip behind the wheel to get their driver's permit. Then they could propel them- selves wherever they needed to go to use all the skills and information acquired in physical education. Peace Brother!

The traditional project that first year students looked forward to in Mechani- cal Drawing was the “egg dropper” pro- ject. Each student was to build a struc- ture of toothpicks housing a raw egg and preventing its breakage when it was dropped from the roof of the walkway in front of school.

I; Family Life When one thinks of Home Ec they always envision cakes and patterns - Well cakes and patterns were Indeed a part of the program but definitely didn’t edge out the many other areas covered. What do you do with a cake once you've made it? You give a tea of course. There were several teas during the year to which the staff and parents were invited. The skills which go into setting up a successful tea or reception were as important as the food and drink served. What do you do with the object you've sewn from a pattern? You wear it at a fashion show or in the case of the many plush “critters’’ made by the students, you can sell them at a Christmas bazaar. Although Home Ec often deals with the making of objects. Many of the areas covered dealt with human rela- tionships. At the beginning of the year, students painted faces on raw eggs which became their “babies”. There were responsible for the welfare of these babies. We still aren’t quite sure how many “broken” homes oc- curred. Where did the Home Ec student find books with ideas for crafts? Quite often they went to the library for this information, or at least for the information needed to complete re- ports and term papers due during the year. This year the library staff and help- ers shelved over 1,300 new books. These books run the gamit from refer- Look out!

Another addition to the library this year was the copy machine. Teachers often heard, “I need to go to the li- brary to make copies.” The library was not just a place for books, papers and machines. During the year, the athletic association held their meetings there and receptions for an art show in January and the Seniors in June were also held there. The library also became the gather- ing place for the faculty where meet- ings were necessary. READING BOOKS, READING PATTERNS 131 132 THE WORK SHOWS - LITERALLY.

The term “up to your elbows in...” could be applied more often in this subject than any other as all sorts of art materials went to create both successful and not so successful end results. Some of the successful projects were ones done for the school such as the outside scoreboard “revamping” done by Kim Brammer and the mural done on the cafeteria wall by Everett Butler’s advanced art students. Much student work ended up in various shows during the year. On January the 24th a contest and reception were sponsored by the Chester Woman’s Club in the library. On March 28th, 29th and 30th, student work from all levels of art and photography was displayed in the annual Festival of the Arts which was held at Monacan High School. The Meadowbrook display received quite a few direct and indi- rect compliments. The art that went into these shows and contests came from Art I-V classes and from a year long photography class in which students learned to use a camera, process their own film and print. The sharp price rise of photographic materi- als could be spotted in the reduced size of student work as the year progressed. Mr. Butler was spotted, after school was out for the sum- mer, lugging large pieces of art to the Youth Art Show at the Carillon. | rqgeueressrTan £4 cama S. ; , ee: ens a . - “ a ee hateOdde and end i a little of thateC and ends from a per d.as-Harold A out. “a Big girls pla : Brenda East fi work done, but complicated as dics bie ¢ ied tans “ye : dre Bazemore shoy a 2 4 a se rey pe + Be The magic touch-Kim Clark artistically adds the finishing touches to her master piece, 2 clean nega- tives.

No, Mr. Earl Binns is simply pretending to attack an out-of-tune hand-built organ in his music theory class. Music While the Art Department appeals to the visual senses, the Theory, Mixed Chorus, Vocal Ensemble Girls Ensemble Music and Drama Departments appeal to the fine senses of elie : a sight and sound. Miss Collins, our orchestra teacher has been at Meadow- brook for three years and through hard work has built the orchestra program. This year they received a rating of excel- lent at the district festival. In order for her students to exper- ience the effect of playing with a full orchestra, Miss Collins took her students, several times a week, to Bird High + School to perform with the other orchestra stu- —— i, dents throughout the county. The orches- Co ee tra did all this in addition to the Christmas and Spring Concerts here.

His classes are as diverse as Mr. Min- oy nighs, he teaches Music Theory, Mixed Choir, Vocal Ensem- | ble and Girls Chorus. All of these choirs also performed at the concerts and assemblies. The Vocal Ensemble, a select group of voices, appeared throughout the county at Women’s Clubs, Rotary Clubs and church organizations. In addition all three music instructors work on and some (Miss Collins) per- formed in the musical, “Hello Dolly’, produced by the Dra- ma and Music Departments. The Drama Department, under the instruction of Miss Priscilla Barth, consists of Drama I, Drama II (advanced: acting), Drama III (playwriting and directing), and Stagecraft. These students studied the art of acting, make-up, mime, vocal projection, stage geography, costuming, the history of theatre, acting techniques, set constructing and painting. This year the Drama I students performed pantomimes and mimes at a school assembly and some performed as enter- tainment for the Miss Meadowbrook pageant. The Drama II classes also performed at an assembly with a variety of acting scenes.

Some stu- dents are born with or develop special learning problems in some or all areas and do need help from teachers who are trained to deal with their special prob- lems. Meadowbrook has a specialist to deal with reading problems, a learning dis- ability specialist, and a teacher to deal with students who have emotional diffi- culties that effect their learning. There were some students who did have difficulty staying out of in-school- suspension and a teacher was hired spe- cifically to handle that area. The teacher hired to oversee study- halls was also considered a special teach- er as it takes quite a bit of patience and a little nerve to handle a cafeteria full of “studying” students.

It’s time to pass out some more good or bad news and Mrs. Barbara Bowles is ready. English 10,11 “Parse that sentence; note that verb; get a little wordy and you land in — the English hall.” Those strange mutterings didn’t come from “Old Man River” nor even from Macbeth’s three weird witches but from students who discovered that critical analysis was not only applicable to the authors-under-study but also to themselves when a discerning teacher stabbed at their compositions with a red pen. Although the struggle for articulation sometimes seemed overwhelming, at other times it was downright fun - especially when viewing Zefforelli’s movie of Romeo and Ju- liet purchased this year by the English Depart- ment. The film elicited sighs and tears and a new-found appreciation of and love for Shake- speare and his craft. A few students also expanded their drama critiquing to the plays presented by the Vir- ginia Museum Theater by attending the pre- opening night productions of this season’s plays. Some even ventured all the way to D.C. to satiate their appetities for the dramatic form and there attended the production of Shake- speare’s Taming of the Shrew at the Folger Shakespearean Library’s Globe Theater. An all-out English Department project for the year was to improve students’ audience behavior and appreciation for a variety of musical styles. The students were instructed in the fine points of audience etiquette such as holding applause between movements of a symphonic presentation and sprinkling their applause throughout jazz pleces to show ap- preciation for a skillful performance by a par- ticular musician taking a “break”. The movies, the dram dramas, the music spiced the usual grammar and composition during 1979-80 and helped students truly ap- preciate the beauty and skill of fluent articula- tion of language. 140 Quiz Time Giving a quiz on U.S. History is Mrs. Linda Rusher. U.S. History segue: Semeiaes � The morning announcer hawks tickets to the movies and reveals the day’s clue to the “History Mystery Person” as a daily reminder to students that history is alive and growing with one of Meadow- brook’s most active and visible clubs. The History Club, sponsored by the So- cial Studies Department, sold tickets to movies to increase their coffer and sup- port the winners of the “History My- stery. In an effort to promote interest in and dedication to the academic pursuit of history, geography, and social studies, the Social Studies Department sponsored the special interest club. The only re- quirement for membership is a basic in- terest and desire to learn more about the subject of social studies and history. The zenith for this year’s activities came in early May when club members boarded the Amtrak train for a long week-end in New York City. Not only were club members treated to the sights of the big city, but they also chanced to meet Kenny Rogers, the famous country music singer and composer, outside the lounge car on Amtrak. From the hawker on the school’s inter- com to the hawker for announcing train arrivals and departures, Meadowbrook students were transported in their own “Time Machine” backwards and for- wards in history.

The cooking in Spanish, French and Ger- man class was done to familerize the students both with the taste of the native foods and the methods and implements used to prepare them. Some of the cooking was done on the spot, some by the students at home. Both Mrs. Eveylen Shelton, Spanish, and Miss Crysta Lunze, German, could add first hand antecedotes to both these “tasty” days and any other day in class as they were both born in countries in which the language they teach was spoken. Mrs. Linda Davidson, French, Mrs. Annette Prince, French and Miss Liz Sumner, Spanish have also traveled into the mother countries of their languages. We're not sure whether Mrs. Hawthorne had been to Latino - but she had excellent command of the language. The Spanish students had the pleasure of hosting Manuel Martinez during the first part of the year. Manuel who lives in Chile stayed with Sophomore George Fuller and his family. In the Spring Foreign Language week origi- nated such events as intra-language volleyball games and a banquet held in the school cafete- ria.

Displaying obeisance to the Golden Rule brought wreathes of recogni- tion and honor to math students this year. Competing in the annual VCU math contest for the greater Richmond area, Dang Hoang won an outstanding second place, and the team of Mike McPherson, Tim Blosser and Doug Updegrove took a repectable seventh place. The honorary math club, Mu Alpha Theta, which accepts only those students as members who have superior math grades and display a spirit of striving for excellence, sponsered a national math contest in the spring. A sopho- more, Rick Chancellor, won first place. Tim Blosser, Melinda Harvey, Nancy Park- er, Mac Hutton, Rick Chancellor and Bonnie Culbertson sharpened their pencils and math skills and demonstrated that Meadowbrook students are not shirkers when computations are tailed and participated in the annual Math—Science Center’s math conference. The printout recieved from the computer classes attested to the number of cyborgs in the school. The number of sections of these mechanical mathmaticians multiplied form one section to six this year.

Mr. LaMar Brandt seems to be watch- ing for a river boat as his class is only thankful to be away from relief maps for a day. Earth Science. The science p rogram contained some of the most unusual and exceptional courses offered in the school. Earth Science was the study of minerals, soils, astromony, our hemisphere and the ocean depths. With teachers like “high flyn’” Mr. Carl Wood, air currents become visable as they tugged kites through the air on a gusty March day. “Science 9 blows my mind,” Mr. Wood’s favorite expres- sion, seemed approriate during these windy sessions. While Mr. Wood was up in the air, Mr. LaMar Brandt was “up the creek,” but with a paddle, for he took his students on canoe trips up the James and Rappahanock Rivers to study geology. Biology left you “amazed.” You had to get that little mouse to run through the maze you built for it. If this left you lost, you could always “pig out.” Students had to dissect pigs — sometimes before lunch. But beware! Some dedicated biology student may have asked you to turn your head and cough — that’s into a petri dish. With the flu epidemic, Mrs. Beverly Deacon saw some real “growth” in her classes. “Did you break your beaker again?” “Who flooded the sink this time?” “Light my bunsen burner.” These were sounds that caused the smells we got in the hallways from the chemistry classes. Mr. Lawrence Martin would tell you it was “the motion of the ocean” that counts; for physics was another aspect of the science program that encouraged students to make waves that helped keep the science program afloat. ion.

In the wee hours of the morning the yellow metal monsters pull up to school discharging their captive pasengers. Al- ready busy inside the school were the costodial staff and the cafeteria ladies. If you had been asked to make up a want ad requesting the service of our cafeteria ladies it might have read like this — wanted someone to accept insults gracefully, be able to duck lunch trays, and follow through on the old saying about the kitchen . . . if you can’t stand the heat...

Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Fisher were honored for all the years of service at Meadowbrook during the May academics award presentation with a cor- sage and a special certificate of apprecia- tion. There was a long round of applause and it was realized that these ladies were appreciated throughout. After the yellow metal monsters had devoured their passengers and headed home, the evening costodial crew super- vised by Wingfield Twyman, came in to begin the process of cleaing away the debris of education for the next day.

As relatives and friends watched from the stands, the Senior class followed the faculty poces- sion onto the football field to be in the cool, gathering dusk. The Reverand Malcolm M. Hutton, Pastor of Oak Grove Baptist Church gave the invocation, not knowing that a few moments later his son Mac would receive the $1,200.00 faculty scholarship. Melinda Harvey, Class Salutatorian, wel comed the crowd and Tammy Bur- gess, Valedictorian, presented the tradi- tional speech. Mr. Larry Buchanan presented the fac- ulty scholarship to Mac Hutton as his dad looked on. The Mack D. Moore scholarship went to Robin Thompson. Lieutenant Gouvonor Charles S. Robb, guest speaker, spoke of the responsibil- ities and choices of the “Class of ’80” as they headed into a “not very pleasant” world situation. After the band and choir presented the musical portion of the program, the class began to file past Mr. Buchanan to re- ceive their diplomas. After several people had tripped over the cord leading to the Olan Mills camera, the mood was one of levity and a great deal of yelling went on, both on the part of the Seniors and the audience. A few of the remarks were fun- ny, most just loud. The last Senior received his diploma, the class sang the “Alma Mater” and after caps were thrown into the air and retrieved the class of ’80 walked together as a group for the last time - to leave.

It was fund raising time. The class de- cided to sell candy, posters and key- chains. The candy sales added to the Sophomore treasury over $600.00. Poster and keychain sales were also considered a huge success. Continuing with the Sophomore class tradition, they are fi- nalizing plans for washing the county buses during the summer. These monies will be used for the 1980-81 prom. Although the Sophomore year quietly passed by the officers were very busy with individual activities. Venson and George were involved in athletics, while Leslie and Dana represented the Sopho- more class as cheerleaders, and Wendy busied herself with managing the JV Football team.

The class of 82 surely knew what to do when it came to making a first place float. During the year sophomores screamed, yelled, jumped and clapped their way through pep rallies continually winning the spirit jug. Their enthusiasm during “Homecom- ing Spirit Week’’ won them several first place awards. They won the float contest with their float depicting “The Magical Land of Oz”. Efforts in the hall decora- tion contest landed them a second place award as did the links they added to the spirit chain. V-I-C-T-O-R-Y! 171 Haulin it!

The J.V. football team improved their record while the girls hockey team moved to victory. There were many promising wrestlers and gymnast. Soccer was a great success the majority of it’s members being sophomores. Track, soft- ball, baseball and tennis also had many promising athletic sophomores. As up comming juniors and new members to the varisity teams their pres- ence will surely be felt.

Asking questions, taking notes, listen- ing, and working in class weren't the only things that went on in classes,there was always time for a little clowning, a funny remark or just a breather.

The definition of sopho- more is a fool with money, but when ‘82 came along the definition had to be changed to ‘Sophomores are the best.” If next year is anything like this year the rising sophomores will change the definition of Juniors too.

Part of being a Junior meant more work and new goals, but the class of ‘81 was determined to get the job done. This was a time when Juniors became interested in their future and what they wanted out of life. The biggest and most trying re- sponsibility for the Juniors was fund- raising and putting together the prom — “Tropical Moonlight.” Thank Goodness It’s Friday!

This year the Juniors participated strongly during Homecoming Week, but were beat out by the Seniors and Sophomores. Many Juniors spent grueling hours painting signs, decorating the halls, and working on the float. The theme for this year’s float was “Rack, Sack, and Pack the Tro- jans”, which placed second.

That was what this year’s prom made Seniors and Juniors feel like. The theme for the prom was Tropical Moonlight, and the setting was designed intriguiingly like a jungle. At first, the juniors had a hard time fire-proof- ing the decorations but as luck would have it they succeeded, and gave a beautiful prom. Let’s take a break! Some of the juniors finished little details on the decorations for the prom.

According to the graduating class of 1978, “The Sophomore class of ‘80 came meekly into Meadowbrook and ended the year in a roar. They brought with them a more dressy style in clothes and a maturity unsurpassed by previous sophomore classes.” Feeling that they had accomplished just that, they proudly began their Ju- nior year. With a heavier academic load and many more responsibilities to deal with, they started their climb toward their futures. They took the PSAT and SAT tests as the first step in obtaining their goals. But the biggest event for them was the fundraising and the put- ting together of the prom. When their Senior year finally arrived, the class of ‘80 realized that everything they did was for the last time. Some were jubilant and others were reserved at the thought of leaving high school. This was the year to sit back and enjoy one’s self; in and out of school, and especially at the prom. Needless to say, the Senior class made the most of their final year at Mea- dowbrook. College Bound! Career plans are something not taken lightly by Kelly Menard as she searches for the college, of her choice.

Not only must they give their best in the field of competition, but they must also maintain their required scho- lastic averages. Young men and women developed qualities of leadership, strength, and courage in their participa- tion as true athletes. The ability to work well as a team and to strive for the ulti- mate goal of victory was continually cul- tivated among our MBK Monarchs. Sen- ior competitors seemed to play with that “extra-something-special”; the will to excell beyond past personal achieve- ments. Realizing that they were exper- iencing the excitement of victory and the sadness of defeat, the seniors made each event all the more meaningful. Each and every senior athlete deserves credit for a well fought and dedicated season. Mon- arch spirit and determination marked the character of the entire class of 1980. Whether it was experienced as a specta- tor or a competitor, the excitement of the indomitable Monarch spirit will be for- ever fresh in one’s heart. i a: One of our athletes!

Each shared the agony of the “Ba- nana-Eating after effects” and learned to like bananas the hard way. The 1980 Ba- nana Eating champ was senior Jerry Da- genhart. Mmm-Mmm Good!

Mounted anticipation, mixed emo- tional tears and cheerful cries filled the Monarch Football Stadium as the Senior Class gathered together with a display of great spirit. This Homecoming pep rally was somewhat special for the seniors. After the various spirit competitions throughout the week the seniors once again captured the annual Spirit Jug Award. The class of 1980 won this award for three consecutive years in a row, thus showing an enthusiasm unmatched by previous Monarchs! All Aboard! This was the cry that emerged from the senior float as the “Senior Express” circled the field. Esther Darlene Dulaney 11, 12 - DECA Cathy J. Dunford VICA Kelly Dunham Robert S.

Although the words were more or less unspoken, each and every senior realized that it was the last time that they would all share in the planning, de- signing, building, and painting of their last class float. It not only took many strong-willed and hard working friends with a lot of determination to put the float togeth- er, but also patience, dedication, and a few tears. As the Senior float circled the field on its final round, anticipa- tion and emotion filled the atmosphere and the hearts of us all. Tension mounted as the crowd awaited the crown- ing of the 1979 Homecoming Queen. The Seniors chose five princesses to represent their class. They were Paula Allen, Sherry Dodson, Alison Huddle, Janet Mercer, and Tammy Privitera. Tammy Privitera was crowned Homecoming Queen and Allison Huddle was named Maid of Honor. The tears that were shed, were shed for all of the hard work that the class of ’80 had put into this final Homecoming and for the friends that made it what it was; something that will linger in the hearts of the seniors for many years to come. The gang’s all here! Seniors display the spirit that won them the Home- coming pep rally for three years in a row. Tickled pink!

Varsity sports, club organizations and college plans are just a few of the various activities that kept Seniors very active throughout their last year of high school. Part of the magic of being a Senior was making those “all important future plans” as well as sharing a very warm moment of happiness with special friends. The sense of togetherness ap- pears insurmountable amongst Seniors as graduation draws near. Monkey’s in the park! “See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil, have no fun?!” A time for work.

Each year the play is performed in the auditorium for the underclassmen. Many of the seniors who participated in the play were involved with other activities, thus hampering rehearsal time. The entire cast met at 7:00 A.M. in the auditorium on the same day as the presentation. It was the first time that the entire cast had rehearsed together! The title of the play was “Snow Bound”, with the general theme being togetherness and love for one another. Most everyone who saw the play agreed that it was one of the best ones they had seen. A new style of play had begun by the class of ‘80 to set the trend for future senior classes. The Magic Man’s Hat. The magical ways of Dwayne Whitt led to the escape from Monarch Mountain.

Victo- ry cries, cheers and chants continually emerged from the ‘Senior Side” of the gym as the Class of ‘80 repeatedly cap- tured the weekly spirit jug award. The pep rallies were often filled with much emotion for one reason or another. Whether it be because of the recognition of an outstanding team or individual player, or perhaps joining hands one last time to sing our Alma Mater, and Sen- iors were always willing to put forth their all in showing the true spirit of the Class of 1980! Where's the flag? Monarchs join together for the Pledge of Alligience. A spirit jug anyone? The exhileration shown on Tammy Dyson's face sums up the emotion felt by the seniors. “Scooby Doo, How do you do?” Senior, Mike Craig, shows his school spirit through the charac- terization of Scooby-Doo. A sombre moment. The senior football players ex- pressions show sadness as they experience their last football pep rally. 207 SUPER SENIORS Jones = f a a Most Intellectual - Tamufy Burgess Dan Fait holm. yerrrem reer . . iis ae pie 4: Mage Voice - shea Ha ght � Mlloyd Lenhart. .

One of the events that “jolt” a senior into the realization that the end of school is upon them is Senior Week. Long awaited “I'll get you back’s” were exhib- ited by the seniors on Monday, Senior Slave Day. Underclassmen were subject- ed to such medial tasks as singing on the morning announcements, carrying books to class, imitating dogs, and most anything else a senior saw fit to amuse them during lunch and in the courtyard. Playing the role of teacher was another important part of the week. Seniors took every available oportunity and precau- tion to watch the underclassmen in var- ious classes. Yes, that long awaited week had finally arrived! Kiss my toe This underclassman has second thoughts about kissing the toe of Steve Barham.

Some were friendships that dated back to the days of junior high, and others went back to the very first days of school. Upon looking at the yearbook, not so good friends will maybe realize that special “bond” that they had with all of their classmates. And those that were the best of friends will be reminded of days when their friendships were somewhat strained be- cause of personal conflicts or over a bad day in class. For whatever the reason, seniors espe- cially will remember their high school and senior year with all of their friends .. . memo- ries to last a lifetime! Got the heebie-jeebies?

Sen- iors expressed themselves by cranking up their stereos and lighting their grills. Many spread out on blankets while oth- ers preferred a game of volleyball. From every angle envious eyes could be felt staring on the faces of the underclass- men. Again the underclassmen were somewhat tortured by the grilling of hamburgers and steaks. The fun and games displayed by the class of ‘80 only added to the excitement and eagerness of Senior Week and graduation. Time-Out! Mac Hutton takes a break from all the Sr. action in a nearby car.

This part was one of the more emotional events of the year. Many awards and scholorships were presented. A narrative of the Class of ’80’s three years was compiled and given, express- ing the spirit and uniqueness of the class. A slide show capturing and high- lighting the three years was shown to summarize the history of the class of 1980. The next to last step toward gradu- ation had ended. The following week would bring Baccalaureate exercises. For most the realization of graduation had set in.

A Touching V.T. To Get In Touch With A Person... The photo strips on this spread are contacts made by the staff photographers during the year. When a roll of film was processed into negatives, it was laid directly on to a sheet of photographic paper, exposed to a light source and run through photographic chemicals to produce a positive image of the negative. It was from these thousands of minature images that the enlarge- ments for your yearbook were chosen. Although the percentage of photographs used was small, the Sceptre staff got to ‘touch’ the student body through the many visual stories that passed their way each day. It was an experience. Small packages. These shots taken at basketball game at Hopwell would not have blown up to be very sharp but looked at this way they become small gems. Mugs. The photographers are quite often out in the class rooms shooting for academics. Sometimes some of the nicer shots just don’t fit into a layout. Down with David. A student from VCU visited the gym classes to demonstrate one one of the marshall arts. On your mark. Traditional form became very important in getting off to a good start in track. Look at that sky! On the day that the Seniors had their traditional picnic on the front lawn, they didn’t take their eyes away from the sky too long. Body work. Some of the Seniors decided that a friend’s car didn’t meet certain ascethic standards and did something about it. Spots before your eyes. When several schools in the county had a large number of measle outbreaks, it was decided to make the measle innoculations available to anyone who wanted them. The old folks. It is obvious from this contact strip that when those pep rallies roll around, the older generation here at Meadowbrook has fun too. GK.
