These events, however, were brought about by a spirit of caring friends: a teacher assisted a student in passing; a crowd cheered its team on to victory; and a dance aided in smoothing out a date. All this, along with friendship, truly gave a reason for our joy. 8 fifll UOA it Me U'den uv %nfn{ not ()f ue (ieani sodas and conituiO: Hoop sHirfs. bonnets, rf nee baits, and LuieiS.

The bicentennial celebration has caused a great feeling of patriotism among young and old alike. A Bicentennial Day, sponsored by the Pep Club, captured the true spirit of Amer- ica, displayed by students as well as teachers. The dress up day brought back the recognition of the sufferings of our forefathers. Yet, the sincere love held for our country by those attending Mercer make one realize that our nation will always stay forever young. 9 Facial expressions lighten the aspects of every day, for they capture the feeling within an individual, telling all those about him whether he is happy or depressed. Mrs. Noel (5) and Barry Proctor (1) possess looks of bewilderment, while Sandy Taggart (3) and Terry Darland (2) display thoughts of deep concentration. Alex Poulter (4) and Anne Ballard (6) are caught with mischievous looks about them. These charac- teristics of emotion should truly be remem- bered , for expressions of life are . . . IJomj ACTIVITIES Enthusiastic Participants Promote Homecoming Victory Cheerleaders, pep club members, athletes, and sponsors made homecoming festivities peppy and exciting. The players were also urged to victory by their exuberant fans and spirit band. Homecoming was a two-day event. Students participated in an outdoor pep rally. Two of the outstanding events were tug-of-war and banana eating contest. A powderpuff game and a bonfire ended the first day's events. The first highlight of homecoming evening was the crowning of Homecoming Queen - Nancy Prewitt, by last year's queen, Kathy Lester. The second highlight - VICTORY! The score - Mer- cer 7 Berea 0. Students Display Their Belief m rrScottie Power 16 Mercer students were very involved in homecoming activities this year. Many students and teachers took the initiative as they competed in the assorted con- tests sponsored by the cheerleaders. The Junior Class Float and the Pep Club Sign, (held by Kim Trayner and Laura Benge), were two examples of contest winners. Marsha Goodlett, on tricycle, and Dementres Hayes, eggroller, were primary examples of eager contestants. Our three cheerleading squads joined forces as did the players. Nancy Prewitt and Kevin Claunch reigned as homecoming royalty. Homecoming was an overwhelming success. 17 On February 14 the Pep Club sponsored a Sweetheart Dance. Love was in the air, thanks to Feedback, the visiting band. Marsha Goodlett was crowned Queen of the Sweetheart Dance by Mary Ann Meaux (Pep Club President). Brookie Peavler was named King. The contestants were as follows, from left to right: Sandy Neal, Jeff Sanders, Nora Riley, Allan Pinkston, Brookie Peavler, Marsha Goodlett, Denise Buck, Robert Ballard, Sherry Goodpaster, Alex Poulter, Sharon Hahn, Bobby Riley, Nancy Prewitt, Eddie Horn, Kathi Blacketer, and Jeff Wilson. The evening was filled with quiet, romantic caresses, as well as lively move- ments. Feedback provided a balanced background for both types of dancing. 18 Marsha Goodett and Brookie Peavler Reign as Sweetheart Royalty The Fifties Day worked side by side with Founders Day in providing students the chance to catch a glimpse of the school’s past. Mrs. Short, Mrs. Murray, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Scarce, and Miss Brock were among those teachers who participated in the event. Also, Robert Ballard, Janet Baker, and Mrs. Murray expressed feelings of nostalgia at that time. Winners of the dress-up day posed for photographers with looks of achievement. The activity was a gala event for those who dressed up; however, more enjoyment would have been derived had more students participated. 20 Mercer County High Celebrates Its Twentieth Anniversary Founder's Day provided a chance for students as well as teachers to display their interest in the beginnings of Mer- cer County High School. Mrs. Knight and Mrs. Jones put in many hours of preparation for an assembly which was presented before the school on its twentieth anniversary, February 16, 1976. Faith Burns presented an expla- nation of Mercer's school flag, includ- ing its history and basic format as cre- ated twenty years ago. Entertainment consisted of patriotic selections by the Reach Out Singers. Also, Mr. King, superintendent, spoke on the history of the building, as well as plans for further expansion. 21 Memories” Are Provided for Graduating Seniors by Junior Class Although the Junior Class got a late start decorating for the Prom, they pulled through with time to spare. Penny Steele, Cecila Pulliam, Billie Ann Simpson, Sharon Hahn, and Mrs. Johnson (a Junior Class sponsor) all skipped classes to pre- pare for that eventful night on May 15. Karen Preston and Richard Proctor swayed with the music of Abraham Rush while Mr. and Mrs. Rhodus looked on. Punch, nosegays, tuxedos, and boutonieres all helped to stage the scenes of the Prom. 23 The Junior-Senior Prom Is Successful in Its New Location The Junior-Senior Prom was held at the Elementary School's multi-purpose room this year. Everything went very well. Shir- ley Tate was crowned Prom Queen by last year’s Queen, Cindy Caton. Queen Shirley Tate and King Billy Robinson were pre- sented with gifts. Other Queen Candidates were Nancy Prewitt, Robin Jackson, Mary Ann Meaux, and Debbie McGuire. Abra- ham Rush presented lively music to which the audience promptly responded. Some couples, such as Linda Claunch and Terry Sallee, enjoyed just listening, while others got down and boogied. 25 The 1976 graduating class of Mercer County High decided to combine the traditional Baccalaureate service and commencement exercises into one ceremony, which took place on Wednesday, June 2nd. Despite the prac- tice, when graduation night finally arrived, most seniors, like Donnie Hat- ter and Paul Proctor, were caught up in the confusion and excitement of the occasion. However, with the assistance of ushers from the junior class, such as Diana Britton and Bill Staples, each senior knew exactly how to march in and where to sit when the long-awaited time arrived. Larry Rigsby started the program with the invocation. Trying very hard to hold back the tears, Mary Ann Meaux recited her poem entitled Senior’s Fare- well. After delivering her Valedictorian address, Faith Burns happily received from Mr. King the diploma she so richly deserved. Accompanied on the piano by Mrs. Gay O'Banion, the Mercer County High Girls' Octet sang May You Always and The Halls of Ivy. The graduation address was delivered by the pastor of the Salvisa Baptist Church, Reverend Larry Koch, who was familiar to the senior class both as a substitute teacher and bus driver. 26 Seniors Combine Baccalaureate and Commencement After Reverend Koch’s address to the graduating class, Principal James Gash recognized outstanding members by announcing their special awards. Among the many awards presented were the English award, received by Ruth Ann Cosby, and the music award, received by Margaret Sharpe. As the highlight of the evening, Superintendent Kenneth King awarded diplomas to 107 seniors, while a gymnasium packed with proud relatives and friends looked on. In their last action together, the class of 1976 switched their tassels to indicate that their status had at last changed from seniors to graduates. Salutatorian Lisa Gritton provided the Benediction - a most appropriate ending to the beautiful Christian ceremony which emphasized the important role that God should play in the life of every graduate. Follow- ing the commencement exercises, like the faces of Denna Jack- son, Lisa Elliott, and Alex Poulter, all the graduates beamed with both pride and relief, pleased that the long, twelve-year struggle had ended and not yet realizing that their greatest challenges had just begun. 28 107 Seniors Graduate From 29 Until the last school song is sung- Until the last ball game has begun, These thoughts we'll cherish; These memories, they'll not perish.

After losing 7 of their first 10 games, the Scotties ended up with a seasonal record of 8-16. Despite the losses, the Scotties achieved runner-up honors in the District Tournament with a strong victory over Burgin, and then lost to a tough Jessamine Co. team. The Scotties thus advanced to the Regional Tournament and were defeated in the first round by a powerful Richmond Madison team. Although the Scotties will lose only two players this year in Kevin Claunch and Paul Proctor, they are losing two outstanding athletes. These young men will be greatly missed and hard to replace next season. Since the Scotties should return a strong line-up next season, the team's future looks promising. Coaches Steve Clevenger and Gene Middleton watch their team fight for victory against the Harrodsburg Pioneers. MERCER 56 Boyle Co.

SALLIE ISON 39 KEVIN CLAUNCH PAUL PROCTOR Girls Accomplish First in School s History — Regional Runner-Up The girls had another successful season this year as they went 19-5. In the district, they won a thrilling victory over a strong Jessamine County team. In the Regional the girls represented Mercer County with great pride and won the respect of the teams they played. They were defeated by Bryan Station in the Regional Championship. The game had many questionable calls but Mercer came out on the short end. The team lost two valua- ble players in Sallie Ison and Rita Taylor, who will be greatly missed and hard to replace next year. 1976 GIRLS' BASKETBALL SCORES MERCER OPPONENT 43 Lincoln Co. 47 57 Burgin 23 54 Henry Clay 43 41 Woodford Co. 33 44 Jessamine 15 43 Russell Co. 38 75 Harrodsburg 9 45 Danville 20 59 Frankfort 33 54 Lincoln Co. 30 Burgin 25 40 Tates Creek 48 49 Jessamine 29 Ti Frankfort Harrodsburg 40 28 37 Boyle Co. 34 29 Anderson Co. 51 38 Marion Co. 43 | 37 Casey Co. 21 District Tournament ■ J 1 55 Burgin 37 , 33 Jessamine 32 Regional Tournament 53 Lafayette Model £ 32 52 35 41 Bryan Station 46 Coaches Judy Heidom and Susan Brock received good luck horseshoe presented to the team by the student body. 40 (L to R) Katy McCrystal, Karen Preston.

BASEBALL 1975-76 The baseball team showed much improvement over last year’s team with a record of 9-9. They were still young but showed more experi- ence than during the previous season. The Scotties only lose one player this year in Senior Rodney ”Rolo Sallee. Rodney always managed to keep the team's spirits aroused even though they were facing defeat. Despite this loss the Scotties should return a strong line- up and improve their seasonal record even more over this year’s record. Frankfort Boyle Co. Anderson Co Berea Woodford Co. Marion Co.

K. The team has great depth as they are losing only two seniors in Sallie Ison and Rita Taylor. Many school 75 Burgin 43 records were broken this year. Sallie Ison threw the shot 36'10 and the disc 106', bettering the old records sub- 93 KSD 26 stantially. Becky McKinney set a new record in the high jump with a jump of 4'9 . The mile relay team 73 78V4 Berea 46 was very impressive this year, breaking the old record Boyle Co. 48 on various occasions and finally running their best time of 1:34. The team was composed of Teresa Angel, 87 Jessamine Co. 31 Janet Wilcher, Janice Rawlings, and Jo Ann Rawlings. Rita Taylor had a fine year as she broke the school record in the long jump of 16'9 and won most of her events throughout the year. Cathy Stinnett tied the regional record in the 60 yard hurdles with a time of 9.0. All of these accomplishments indicate that the success of the Girls' Track team was a combined effort. Cathy Stinnett set school records for 60 and 110 Hurdles. 44 Sallie Ison, Rita Taylor, Patty Rawlings, Dcnctta Baily, Janet Wilcher, Debbie Lyons, Lorian Martell, Janice Rawlings, Angie Hamlin, Lisa Huffman, Karen Preston, Shari Votaw, Sandy Taggart, Teresa Angel, Anita Burras, Mgr.

Becky McKinney sets record with a jump of 4'9 . Sallie Ison sets school record with a throw of 106'. She was second in state. Rita Taylor and Sallie Ison have earned six varsity letters in Track. During these years, they have set many school records and competed in the state on various occasions. In 1975, Rita Taylor won the state in the 100 and 220 yard dash. In 1976, Sallie Ison was second in the state in the disc. They will be greatly missed for their leadership and inspira- tion to the team. 45 Boys’ Track Team Comes on Strong During the 1975 season the boys’ track team was fight- ing a losing battle as they went 3-4. However, the 1976 season was a different story as they went 5-2. Through sheer work and grind the team molded itself into a respectable track team. The two defeats handed to Mercer this year were by strong teams that didn't han- dle the boys as easily as they thought it could be done. Mercer also defeated teams that had handled them eas- ily the year before, but were surprised at the outcome of the meet. One record fell this year. Jim Ashford threw the discus 119'2V4 and was not beaten in the shot until the Regional. Joe Alford was just short of the record in the 880 yard run with a time of 2:06.7 sec- onds. The team's future looks very promising: however, they will not have the services of six valuable seniors. With more experience the team should be even better next year. 1976 BOYS’ TRACK SCORES MERCER OPPONENT 102 Burgin 33 90 KSD 46 55 Berea 81 59 Boyle Co. 76 71 Jessamine Co. 64 74 Garrard Co. 61 98 KSD 38 46 FRONT ROW: Kevin Claunch, Steve Brogle, Joe Alford.

Although the Pep Club sponsored many activities through- out the year, only a few hardworking members from the large group actually participated in planning them. The club helped with Homecoming and also took a hoop to the Harrodsburg football game. On February 14, they spon- sored a Sweetheart Dance. A Bicentennial Dress Up Day was held in the spring; however, the old-fashioned activi- ties program for Pep Club members scheduled for that day had to be canceled due to lack of interest. A few dedi- cated members spent many hours preparing for the printing of the District Basketball Program. On May 21, Pep Club members voted for next year’s officers. 4 75 Reach-Oat Club Spreads Good News The Reach-Out Club, one of the newest clubs, is a religious group of young people dedicated to reaching out and telling others of Christ. During the year a group of singers was formed, known as the Reach-Out Singers. This group consists of Kim Koch, Melinda Stewart, Kent Sparrow, Jeff Koch, Carla Sanford, and Sherri Brock, with Lisa Gritton as the pianist. At various times during the year, the singers along with club members visited Elliott's Nursing Home to entertain the elderly. Under the leadership of Mr. Knight, Mrs. Collier, and Mrs. Hensley, the club grew to an overwhelming number of 183 members. By meeting every Friday morning, the club members were able to fellowship together in Christian love. This helped to start their day off right. Once a month, the club had a half hour meeting in which a program was planned. Usually these programs were made up of special singers who willingly volunteered to entertain the group with a few Christian songs. During these meetings prayers were sent up for those with problems and sickness in their families. Overall, it was a time when Christians could meet with other fellow Christians and share their burdens as well as joys. Reach-Out Singers OFFICERS (L. to R.): Faith Burns. Pianist: Lisa Gritton, Devotions; and Diana Britton, Song Leader. Science Club Visits Mammoth Cave The Science Club, sponsored by Mrs. Mary Beth Lemker and Mrs. Martha Grubbs, took two trips which were both educational and fun.

In February, Science Club members sponsored a bake sale to help finance their trip to Mammoth Cave. During spring vacation, they traveled to Mammoth Cave, where they camped out for one night.

Through countless hours of concentration, deter- mination, and patience, the yearbook staff accomplished its impossible dream. Yet layout sheets were not the only items that occupied the staff's time. In order to promote the sale of the yearbook, a skit was presented to the student body. This will long be remembered, as no one wants the dark cloud of gloom overshadowing him as it once did Little Jimmy. 3 85 Organizations Provide Friendship and Fan in 776 1) Spanish Club members return to Mrs. Johnson’s house for a party after an eve- ning of Christmas caroling. 2) Linus (Bart James) and Charlie Brown (Terry Rousey) have a heart to heart talk during the Speech Club’s Peanuts presen- tation. 3) FHA members Kim Warner and Alexa Steele prepare bicentennial centerpieces for the Mother-Daughter banquet. 4) Wyonette Hartman receives an egg shampoo at Beta initiation, compliments of Jim Ashford, Denna Jackson, Jan San- ford , and Charlotte Robinson. 86 Administration Is Backbone of School Kenneth King A.

Everyone at Mercer wishes Mrs. Clemmons Knight many fulfilling and enjoyable years of retirement. Linda Claunch makes use of reference books for her U. S. History report. Substitute Teachers Do More Than Just Fill in As the year progresses, the unfamiliar faces of sub- stitute teachers become regular features because the people frequently are called upon to fill in for full- time instructors. Their willingness to attend school on short notice is appreciated, as well as their par- ticipation in or attendance at school functions. Both teachers and students are grateful for interest shown by such substitutes as Mr. Koch, who dressed as a pioneer on Bicentennial Day, Miss Downey, who chaperoned two junior class field trips, and Miss Christopher, who helped in coaching girls' track. 1975-76 SUBSTITUTE TEACHERS Connie Christopher Sandra Downey Yvonne Griffin Janet Gritton Mary Heise Rita Ison Larry Koch Sandra Moore 91 Neva Pearl Woods The commerce department at Mercer includes typing I, typing II, shorthand, and accounting. Each class equips the students with skills that can be applied in personal, scholastic, and working situa- tions. Typing class is essential to the college bound student because it teaches him the principles of typing term papers and manuscripts. In accounting the student gains knowledge that will help him balance his budget in future days. Shorthand, an essential to secretarial work, may be used in a person's career or in college shorthand can make taking notes easier.

Students enjoyed learning new techniques such as: papier-mache, modeling clay, multi crayon engraving, with the high point of the year being string design. The band, conducted by Mr. Larry Woolums, gave support to the football team as well as both boys' and girls' basketball teams. The band competed in three marching contests. While on tour May 7 and 8, they performed for schools in Ohio and enjoyed a fun day at King's Island.

For a change of pace, Mr. Randy Burns provided a male image to the department, which has long consisted of women teachers at Mercer, as he did his student teaching in English III. Sophomore English will no longer be the same since Mrs. Eunice Jones has decided to retire after twenty-seven years of service. Her cooperation and concern for students has been a cornerstone in the English Department for many years. In March the department sponsored two humorous one-act plays by Anton Checkhov, Russian playwright. The South Carolina Players presented these plays, which were entitled Ivan and The Henpecked Husband. Instructed by Mrs. Jackie White, the Speech Class worked on a variety of projects, including a humorous version of The Night Before Christmas, a bicentennial skit, and a short play featuring the Peanuts characters.

Mrs. Ceci- lia Broadwater worked patiently with her students in order to help them grasp the fundamentals of reading, which is a necessity to every student regardless of what other courses he may take. Through resourcefulness and creativity, Mrs. Jerri Weitzel succeeded in providing her seventh grade class with the basic skills as well as introducing group projects such as designing a bicentennial rug and working with papier-mache. An outstanding achievement of one of Mrs. Mary Mitchell Gravely's literature classes was the completion of poetry notebooks, which included samples of the students' favorite poetry with illustrations and an explication of one poem. By means of games, Mrs. Weitzel helps her students to master reading skills. New to Mercer, Mrs. Weitzel teaches a seventh grade class at the elementary school. Junior High Reading teacher. Mrs. Broadwater, works with her students on the comprehension of phonics. 99 A new teacher, Mrs. Lemker, was added to the math department. The courses Mrs. Lemker teaches are algebra I, algebra II, and advanced math. In the higher math courses, calculators have replaced the slide rule. Many students in algebra II and advanced math often rely on the brains of an elec- tronic calculator to supplement their own. Other math classes consist of math 9, math 10, geome- try, and junior high mathematics. The major goal of math 9 and math 10 is to teach the students about household financing banking, and other practical uses of mathematics. Also more emphasis is being put on the metric system related to everyday application.

This year a new class is offered to students who have completed the required courses: advanced P.E. taught by Mr. John Buchanan. The advanced P.E. class plays basketball, lifts weights, runs track, plays volleyball and soccer, all of which helps to develop their bodies and minds. Mrs. Heidorn’s freshman girls presented a tumbling show during half-time of a basketball game. Tumbling is a basic art in freshman P.E. The junior high and freshman classes also help train future track stars at Mercer. Robin Green returns to Mercer to complete her student teaching in physical education.

Each class undertook many projects such as bug collections and leaf collections. Mr. Middleton's seventh graders worked on a new type of project. His classes built a weather station so that they could derive the forecast themselves. The solar system was studied in depth by Mr. Lister's eighth grade classes. This year, besides teaching a biology class, Mr. William Moore was added to the Junior High sci- ence staff. Seventh graders are actively involved in experimentation and collection of data. Students determine the forecast with their weather station. Eighth grade science students display their solar system projects. 104 Gerald Lister Jr. High Science Builds Weather Station Gene Middleton Bill Moore A guest speaker discussed his insect collection with Mr. Moore's science class. 105 Biology Classes Tour Louisville Zoo Martha Grubbs Howard Fallis Martha Peavler Jeff Wilson attempts his first human dissection, with Lisa Gritton as guinea pig.

Throughout the year representatives from almost every office in the Mercer County Court House spoke to his Advanced Government class. The class learned about political processes by observing a trial and touring the capital. In the spirit of the bicentennial year, Mrs. Linda Murray's and Mr. John Buchanan's U.S. History classes worked on projects which would teach them about the founding of their nation. Mrs. Murray's classes dramatized scenes from two plays, 1776 and CON- SPIRACY AT VALLEY FORGE. Mr. Buchanan's classes prepared bicentennial minutes for oral pres- entation . Their students also traveled to Lexington on two occasions - to see the movie 1776 and to tour Henry Clay's home at Ashland. Rhonda Grider portrays Ben Franklin in the play, 1776.

Many of the classes held bicentennial projects contests. In Mrs. Hazel Gash’s seventh grade history class, bicentennial coins were given to the winners. On many occasions, log cabins and bicentennial dresses added a touch of the pioneer days to the Junior High. Mr. Yeager's class had the pleasure of a visitor from Australia, Mr. Robert Burton. Mr. Burton discussed with the class his native land and customs. The class presented Mr. Burton with a Scottie tobaggan in apprecia- tion.

Home economics teaches the student the details of home management, foods, and clothing. In these classes the students learn by doing. Also, there is a bachelor living class which teaches the guys how to make ends meet on their own. Agriculture classes not only develop the skills of the students, but also benefit the local farmers. In the shop, students build gates, cattle feeders, picnic tables, and other items. Agriculture also provides the students with the knowledge of how to manage a farm profitably. Sue Riley learns the basics of sewing in her first year of home economics. In bachelor living class, ieff Wilson concentrates on embroidery.

This year, the senior class named Robin Jackson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Jackson, and Jim Ashford, son of Mr. and Mrs. Hyte Ashford, as Mr. and Miss Mercer of 1976. Robin is very close to the outdoor life. She has been raised on a farm and plans to continue the farmlife in the future. Robin has been active in many activities during her years at Mercer High. Her leadership ability is prominent since she is president of the Beta Club and Editor of the Annual Staff. Jimmy also has a real love of the land. He has been a leader in the Future Farmers of America and received many awards for his dedication. Sports is also a favorite pas- time for Jimmy. Football, one of his favorite sports, was an activity in which Jimmy excelled. The last game of the football season ended an important pan of Jimmy’s life. There’s Two in Every Crowd Traditionally, the Senior Superlative section of the annual recognizes the outstanding members of the graduating class. The Senior Superlatives are composed of students who have shown leadership or a certain characteristic through their high school years. The following four pages contain pictures that portray the title for which the seniors were selected - the smarties who always passed tests with flying colors; the class clowns whose wit sometimes caused trouble; the two seniors who always greeted everyone with a friendly smile; those two fantastic athletes, each trying to outdo the other; the ones who looked the greatest even if they wore a feedsack; and those two who we know will reach the top. The Senior Class is proud of these representatives.

After spending the second semester at Mercer, Nils concluded that he likes the school system because the people and their habits are so different from his own background. While at Mercer, Nils studied American history, Ameri- can literature, sociology, government, and art. His favorite classes were sociology and art. American sports do not appeal to Nils because they are so unfamiliar to him. Because Nils possesses a rather proficient command of the English language, he had very little trouble com- municating with students or teachers. After an enjoyable stay in Mercer County, Nils returned in July to Argentina, where he has one more year of school.

The invitation committee was in charge of selecting not only graduation invitations but also senior keys and memory books. The graduation committee decided on such items as choice of speaker and format of gradua- tion night. The fund raising committee arranged bake sales to help finance the trip to King’s Island. The senior class officers headed these committees and worked hard to see that all their goals were achieved. OFFICERS: Mary Ann Meaux, vice-presideni; Robin Jackson, treasurer: Kevin Claunch, presi- dent: Denna Jackson, secretary. Not Pictured: Nancy Phillips, reporter. A different view was held by the sponsors of the 1976 senior class. They believed in letting the class choose, as it pleased, the details of graduation, invitations, and the senior trip. Mrs. White aided in the preparation of the valedic- tory speech. Mrs. Gritton organ- ized the class and committee meetings, while Mr. Buchanan and Mr. Vandivier aided in establishing a sense of order. Mrs. Jones contributed many use- ful suggestions. These sponsors worked together to assist the sen- ior class in many plans and deci- sions . 147 SPONSORS: Mary Dot Gritton, John Buchanan, Jackie White. Barry Vandivier, and Eunice Jones. Seniors Travel to King’s Island The day started at 7:00 a.m. as the buses left for the three hour drive. Arriving at King's Island, the class stood in line the forty-five minutes waiting to get in; but once inside, there was no stopping them. While waiting to experience such rides as the Racer, Log Flume, and Enchanted Voyage, they enjoyed pizza, hot dogs, nutty bananas, and many cold cokes. There were many stores and shows to see, plus lots of walking. By 6:00 they were ready to leave. Carrying souvenirs and stuffed animals, they boarded the bus for the long ride home. The class enjoyed a nice break in Lexington where they stop- ped at McDonald’s for a late snack. Tired but happy, they returned home at mid- night. Vicky Wheeler and Donna Ball enjoy the long wait by talking to Banana Split. (L. to R.) Kevin Hatfield, Kay VanArdsall, Teresa Terhune. Rhonda Curtsinger, Lennis Caudill, Brenda Smith, Faith Burns, Cecil Fran- cis, Nancy Prewitt, and Lisa Gritton prepare to ride the Log Flume. 148 FORE VER YOUNG There are so many memories Of yesterday and yesteryear. In the first grade we played make believe beneath the trees It's unbelievable the things we did,' In the 2nd and 3rd we started to notice boys. In the 4th we were adults no longer considered a kid. In the'5th we no longer wanted toy; Then came the age of 12 and Junior HighJt The njpxt thing we knew we were a teen. Anything suggested we would give a try. Did ever tkink we were keen. Long Awaited high school finally arrived. We were Freshmen at last. We really worked and really strived And then as Sophomores we realized the time had flown by Anni: e prom, license, and first dates s, class rings, and Senior keys. We never thought they'd come and pass at such a At first we thought it would be centuries. We'veihad happiness, fulfillment, joy and succe; We've Beamed to Loveland feel for others. These past years we've had a lot of strain and sue: Each person in our cla ’-----------------1—1— ; became our b Without the brave men who 200 years ago fought and died To make us free to believe, love and worship as we please There would be no Mercer High. No memories. Now I say good-bye my friend, Realizing I may never see you again. It is not first grade. There is no make believe. We areinot Forever Young.

Barbara trains her rock fifteen minutes, twice a day. She said that a rock's attention span is rather short and that a bored rock is an unhappy rock so training sessions are kept short. Barbara has trained her rock to sit, roll-over, and play dead. She takes it on walks daily and Georgie has his own little box to sleep in. This box has air holes and is filled with straw. Barbara stated that in order to have a healthy rock one must learn health care and emergency first aid techniques as they regard a Pet Rock. Visits to the lapidary can be very expensive.

This was discouraging to students, but the coaches never looked down, for they could recall how badly they were beaten last year. During the previous season, at one outing they were beaten by as much as sixty points. This fall, they had come close to winning several times during the season and were only beaten badly once.

The Junior High Student Council had many projects or goals they wanted to complete before the school year was out. One of these was to purchase new uni- forms for the cheerleaders. They did accomplish this goal and set as next year's goal new uniforms for the football team. They not only worked for the cheerleaders and athletes, but worked hard within the halls of the school to pro- mote school spirit and respect. Under the guidance of Mr. Jerry Kays these students show a lot of potential for making Mercer a better school.

Without their aid this year’s Highlander would be almost impossible. Thanks to the smiles, patience, and help received, many parents as well as students, will be able to enjoy the 1976 Highlander. n Faith Burns ir Lisa Gritton Business Managers Teachers Survive Twenty Years at Mercer High In the twenty year history of Mercer High, the school has seen numerous changes, but there are five faculty members who still remember that first year. These five people have worked hard over the years, not only to educate students in an academic way, but also to show leadership in many extracurricular activities such as sports, clubs and expansions of the school and its curriculum. (Middle) A. T. Hensley, a gratuate from Lindsey Wilson Junior College, received a B.S. Degree in 1950 and a M.S. Degree in 1955 from the University of Kentucky. After serving his first year at Mercer as an agriculture teacher, he was appointed superintendent for two years and then elected superintendent for the following fourteen years. He now serves the capacity of Assistant Superintendent. (Upper Left) Amos Black, a graduate from the University of Louisville with a B.S. Degree, has been a great influence on the sports program at Mercer. Not only has he served as Athletic Director but he has also been the coach of basketball, football, and presently baseball. He led both the basketball and baseball teams to a victory as District Champions and led the basketball team to a twenty-five and one season record. During the first year of Mercer High, Mr. Black was the football coach and the team was only defeated once. (Upper Right) Eunice Jones, who received an A.B. Degree from Berea College, furthered her education at the University of Kentucky and majored in English. She said her most rewarding experiences derive from working with the Beta Club. The Beta Club wants to thank Mrs. Jones for the time she has spent working with the club and to express what a good sponsor she has been. Mrs. Jones is retiring this year and will be greatly missed in the years to come. (Lower Left) Irene Dickerson Knight, recently married to Clemmons Knight, graduated as valedictorian from Centre College with an A.B. Degree and continued her education at the University of Kentucky in Library Science. Mrs. Knight helped to write the school song and supervised the making of the school flag. She is retiring this year after forty years of teaching and will be greatly missed. (Lower Right) Wilma Clarice Hatcher, an active member of Harrodsburg Baptist Church, earned an A.B. Degree in Business Education from the University of Kentucky. She has taught in a variety of places including France. Mrs. Hatcher gets much satisfaction out of teaching skill subjects such as typewriting, shorthand, office practice, and knowing that so many of her former students are now filling worth-while posi- tions. The student body would like to thank these teachers for their dedication and service to the Mercer County School System. 230 1) Amos Black: Health, P.E. and Math. 2) Eunice Jones: Sophomore English. 3) A. T. Hensley: Assistant Superintendent. 4) Irene Dickerson Knight: Librarian. 5) Wilma Clarice Hatcher: Typewriting, Shorthand, Office Practice, and Accounting. 231 Time has passed, and now we have but memories. The youth of today must find the key To the long hard roads that have yet to be trod. But, love and peace, and help from God Will allow us to make it through this wild world. - Brenda Nichols 232 1) Baby Edwin Kilcy concentrates on a bachelor living test while wearing his bright pink baby bonnet made by Mrs. Gill. 2) Sharyn Hahn. Jan Sanford, and Alta Mae Keighiley are shown after being named to the National Dairy Judging Team, which will be leaving in June of 1976 for a three week tour of Europe and participating in the International Dairy Judging Contest. 3) Edd Flynn seems to be thinking about Beethoven while he plays the pan of Schroeder in a Peanuts skit presented by the Speech Class. 4) The Highlander Staff takes a break from their work to relax in the Big Tree at Fort Harrod. 5) Patty Hembree and Sherry Goodpaster are more than glad to show off their 77 class rings. 6) Everyone pitches in to decorate the buses before leaving for the finals of the girls’ Regional Basketball Tournament. 7) Becky McKinney proudly displays the rat she is dissect- ing. 8) Lesa McMurry holds a Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket which the FHA used to collect money for Arthritis Fund. 9) Mrs. Linda Eades recalls her teaching days at Mercer as she signs a memory book of a former student. Each year the happenings of school life and activity have continued. The arrival of class rings, dissection of animals, basketball regionals, the taking of tests and other such memo- ries are typical. Another class will take over the empty space left and the cycle will soon begin again. However, these past memories of each student, although captured only for a moment, will remain forever young. 233 234 Now the doors are open and our '76 school days have ended. For the sen- iors. life has already begun in the real world. As we, the student body, look back on the things we have done, we find eternal memories. We view the things happening around us today and find deepening thoughts. But now we must look to the future and all of the hopes and dreams it holds. Even though there will be many changes in our school over the years, the memories, thoughts, and hopes of the student body, faculty, and graduates of Mer- cer High will remain . . . FOREVER YOUNG yaf r 1) Debbie Royally, Richard Proctor, and Steve Brogle help to paint a sign of homecoming activities sponsored by the Pep Club. 2) Teresa Perkins gives a humorous interpretation to the speech class. 3) Sharyn Hahn portrays the part of a witch. Mother Rigby, in Nathaniel Hawthorne's Feather Top. 4) Little Jimmy Ashford learns his lesson in the annual staff skit. 5) Abraham Rush produces a sound that people can get down and boogie to. 6) Kim Trayner and Donna Ball are ready to replace their Health Career uniforms for a cap and gown. 7) One of the South Carolina Players performed a mono- logue entitled Ivan. 8) Becky Gay performs a trick that few people can accom- plish: placing her hands clinched behind her back, Becky brings her arms over her head without separating her hands. 9) Laura Schuster finds the floor more comfortable than those hard classroom chairs. And when our school days are over, And in the real world our life is begun, Deep down in our hearts We will remain forever young. - Neila Logue 235 Forever Young Today we live in a world Full of celebration. Whatever the cause may be It fills us with elation. If not a cause, then let us cause A reason for our joy. A passing grade, a winning team, A date with our favorite boy. What was it like when we knew not Of ice cream sodas and courting; When hoop skirts, bonnets, knee boots, and knickers, Were all so very sporty? I take a look at the way we were The crazy things we've done 1 find that they were much as we Our hearts forever young. - Shelly Jackson Index ABN'F.R. DANIEL CLARK 95. 143. IV) Abner.
