Sometimes their job is very frustrating. No matter what, there is always someone in the office ready to lend a helping hand. One of Mrs Gorham's many tasks is keeping an accurate file of student's schedule 15 Dca Day Afternccn Not many people would pay $40 for a dog!

Some students seem to believe that teachers never do any- thing but teach! Contrary to this belief, teachers are very involved in the community, in churches, in family life, and many other activities. Many teachers are members of civic organizations and clubs. They stay very busy supporting these activities during the sum- mer months. What do they do? Well, some jog, play tennis, ride bicycles, go to ball games and many other exciting things. Some teachers enjoy just sitting around and relaxing on weekends and during sum- mer vacation. No matter wha teachers enjoy doing in thei spare time, you can be sure they are always busy!

Chorus Helen Rehner Student Teacher 25 Physical Education EDUCATION: What do ycu exuect Mrs. Ward: sees a trend back to the basics of education — the 3 R's — in a more direct fashion than cur- rently exists. Recession will force further cutbacks in school budgets, eliminating full scale sports and fine arts. Mrs. Young: In the 1980’s education will continue to try to educate the masses. The emphasis will revert to providing more of a liberal arts education. Mrs. Flores: would like to believe that some old foundation principles would be restored and that the quality of education would improve. I’m a firm believer in progressive change, but I’m afraid our philosophy of each doing his own thing” has sent us off in a hundred directions. Mr. Brooks: I expect a shift to more basics in school and a return to better control of students. Mrs. Slone: I think education will become more free, not confined so strictly to the classroom. As far as vocational schools are con- cerned, I think there will be more students entering them. Mr. Lister: I believe school systems will begin to redirect their efforts back to emphasizing the bas- ics. All students must learn to read and use math before they can be expected to learn other subject matter. in the last’s? Mrs. Fegenbush: I feel that there will be a big push for making sure that each student is required to master the basic subjects completely before he is allowed to move on and that requirements of promotion and graduation will be more rigid. Miss Sale: I expect high school gradua- tion '‘examinations” before certificates are awarded . fewer students going to col- lege . . . and teachers' pay ris- ing. Mr. Kays: Teachers . . . will be even bet- ter prepared than in the seven- ties . . . due to the continuing surplus of qualifying teachers. Mr. Phelps: I expect a push toward a national curriculum . . . many teachers to leave education because of low pay . . . and Back-to-Basics to become a much larger issue. Miss Downey: As our society changes, so must education. In the years since I graduated from high school, education has changed. But the basic needs, feelings, and emotions of teen- agers remain the same. The 80's will probably bring new ways of trying to meet these challenges. Mrs. Phelps: Unless we begin to expect more of students each year, instead of letting them do less and less, our objectives are going to become very elemen- tary. 27 “T© Ce Or Net T© Ce” Top Left: With the help of Mr. Armstrong, Darrell Claunch works on a car engine Top right: Gary Arnold contributes his electrical knowledge toward the building of this house Above: Norma White learns the secretarial skills necessary to qualify her for a good job Right: Randy Grider learns how to wire a house Bottom middle: Each welding student protects himself with a special suit and mask.

Bottom right: Health careers student Debbie Shuman cares for a patient in a nursing home 28 - I I SI W I I . “To Be Or Not To Be? That is the question. When students become juniors and seniors they are faced with the deci- sion of whether to go to col- lege or go to work. The Har- rodsburg Vocational Center helps many of these students make this decision. Vocational school gives students the opportunity to experience first hand what a certain type of work would be like. There are several different areas which are directed by principal Hughes Jones and some very qualified teachers instructors: Auto Mechanics (Mike Arm- strong), Business Education (Judy Sutter, Debbie Reed, Lawrence Hendren), Carpentry (Ron Wilcher), Electricity (Fred Knickerbocker), Health Careers (Georgette Sims), and Welding (William Weather- ford). The Vocational school clubs are becoming increas- ingly popular because they help make vocational school more interesting and give stu- dents something to strive for. Each year Vocational school helps students decide whether to be or not to be. 29 oooooooooooooooooooooo aur ; oooooooooooooooooooooo ooo OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOC XSV3 OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOC COMING Mechelle Jackson and Richard Compton were caught in the bright lights when they were elected Mr. and Miss Junior High. Well known to everyone, their kind and smiling faces helped them to receive this honor. Both are very active in school and sports.

Mechelle and Richard share several interests, some of those being rock-and-roll and Italian foods. In appearance, each is very charming, though Richard goes for comfort with jeans, and t's whereas, Mec- helle tends to take the classy look with skirts, boots, and hats.

He enjoys spending his free time trapping wildlife in this area. Boyd stressed the impor- tance of “extreme cleanliness when setting traps, because ani- mals are sensitive to the pres- ence of humans. He feels that his hobby is important not only as a pastime but also as an aid in pop- ulation control. Boyd believes, “If all trapping and hunting were banned, nature would take a much higher toll of lives than a bullet or the jaws of a trap. xxxx Kathleen Drury Pat Drury Angela Durr Lamona Edwards Melanie Edwards Terry Egbert Teresa Fisher Byron Followell Jimmy Fuel Coby Gammon Conda Gibson Stephen Goodlett Travis Gray Cindy Gregory Teresa Griffieth Linda Grubbs Tim Gullett Lois Hager Greg Hahn Sherri Hahn Robin Hall Greg Hart Ruth Hartman Dwayne Hawkins Kevin Hendren Daniel Hendrix Tammy Higginbotham Kehl Hilbert Darlene Holland Kim Jo Huffman Kim Kay Huffman Sandy Huffman Trava Hurst Lesa Jackson Mechelle Jackson Greg Jenkins Traci Jenkins Janette Johnson Barbara Jones Troy Kelley Lisa Kelly Jesse Kendrick Wendy Kendrick Kelly King Everett Lamb Matt Lamb Joe Lanham Pam Lanham 39 Kristi Lewis Tammy Logue Dion Long Jeanette Lyons Michael McPhearson Traci McMullin Tina Mann Lisa Mattingly Bud Miller Shay Mink Leonard Montgomery Lee Moore Brian Murphy Marie Murphy Joyce Nelson Lori Newman Joni Nichols Tommy Nichols Joe Norton Tami Norvell Kim Nowlin Susan Parrott Tabby Patterson Duane Perkins Angela Pennington Bobby Phillips Scott Phillips Lee Pinkston Rebecca Prather Annetta Preston John Preston Doug Price Glenda Price Gayle Proctor Ada Quinlan Alex Reynolds Drew Rice Jackie Richardson Debbie Ridgeway Michelle Robinson William Rogers John Ruby Tim Russell Buddy Sampson Cheryl Sanders Steven Settles Angie Shannon Jeff Shelton Five years ago, Tommy Nichols started doing something that his father and his grandfather enjoyed doing.

Having two hundred head of sheep makes it a lot eas- ier to have a hobby such as this. He says, What I enjoy most about going to the State Fair is sleeping in the sheep barn, although I don’t get much sleep, because of the noise.

She first received a moped as a Christmas gift in 1978. Sharon says she enjoys moped riding as a pastime, but also as a way of doing things for others. The good thing about a moped, opposed to a bicycle or car, is that not as much energy is used in peddling, and although it does run on gas, it saves quite a bit compared to a car. ooooooo Roger Hardin Linda Harley Rebecca Harley Lori Harlow James Harrison Alan Hendren Pam Henry David Hobbs Chet Holland Kenneth Holt Chris Horn Chip Howard Patricia Huffman Rita Huffman Tammy Hurst Lynn Isham John Jenkins Rebecca Jenkins Tammy Jenkins Dee Annette Johnson Klara Jones Patty Jones Paul Justice Stacey Kammer Billy Kelly Eric Kelly David Kendrick Mark Kendrick Tanya Keys Jerry Lawson Tony Lay Nathan Leeds Mary Jo Lewis Robin Lewis Arlie Lockwood Brian Logue Cindy Logue Robert Logue Rosemary Logue Kim Long Marty Long Steve Long Phillip Lozier Jim McConnell Sandra McCrystal Brent McGinnis Lana McMurry Jesse Manness 45 Jamie Matherly Lisa Mayes Tara Mayes Tina Merriman Peggy Middleton Herman Miller Bill Million Bob Million Kim Million Teresa Mills Karen Moore Lucinda Moore Dudley Morris Cyndi Murphy Robert Murphy Jimmy Murray Jim Nall Jill Nelson Carla Nobles Larry Parnell Garrett Patterson Letha Patterson Ronald Peavler Ronnie Pennington Stanley Pennington David Phillips Allen Pickett Lynne Pombles Tony Price Candy Pugh Anne Ransdell Mark Reichenbach Loretta Reid Jerald Richardson Donna Roberts Cathy Robinson Roy Robinson Dana Rogers Chris Ross Tangi Ross Larry Rousey Ricky Royalty Jean Ruby Amy Sallee Brenda Sampson Joey Sanders Marsha Sanders Joe Savage rsoooonc To Kill A After reading To Kill a Mocking- bird in English class.

Glenn said that for some time he had been quite devoted to the 'Star Trek’ T V. series, but had not developed a keen interest in Science Fantasy. However, his interest grew after seeing the ever-strengthening” movie Star Wars.” Immediately, he began his relentless digging of arti- facts about its making . . . and all bits of information” he could retrieve on the director George Lucas.” To this date, Glenn says his love and deep devotion for the movie has not been shattered by any outside force. Glenn is so involved in his “Star Wars mania” that he says, I am able to quote almost every line of the movie, and I could almost tell anyone any bit of technical ques- tioning about the movie.” Glenn's fondness continues to surge, as he waits for the continuation — “The Empire Strikes Back.

As the year came to an end and graduation neared, the seniors were not so anxious to leave. While not all seniors shared this feeling, most had good memories of their years in high school. The last year for the seniors was one of becoming a close, happy group. Everyone realized that their days together were numbered so they made the most of their time together.

Long after the class of 80 has graduated and high school is a thing of the past for this year’s seniors, the memory of Martha and Dale’s sense of humor will be well remembered. The funny things that Martha and Dale have said and done have made high school the nostalgic and pleas- ant place it should be for everyone.

On October 5, 1979, the stu- dent body of Mercer County High School strived against unfavorable weather to have a victorious homecoming. First of all, the annual powder puff game was cancelled. In addi- tion to this, most pep rally activities were cancelled and the football team suffered an 8- 0 loss to Wayne County.

Every which way but loose could very well describe the Mercer County Scotties' 1979 football season. The Varsity squad was hard hit by injuries this year. Senior tackle John Mark Johnson was sidelined the first half of the season with a broken foot. Juniors Gary Yeager and Mike Webb suf- fered similar setbacks during the course of the season. Although the Scotties were constantly faced with disaster, never once did they quit. It took a lot of hard work and dedica- tion to continue to play and keep the spirits up after being faced with a terrible tragedy at the start of the season. The 1979 Football squad accom- plished something that the several teams in the past failed to do. The Scotties ended the season with a winning record. 86 ; Phillip Relelord takes a deserved break in the action. The Scotties display their tough goal line defense.

At the annual Football Awards Ban- quet, the Coaches presented many hard earned trophies. The Co-Captain awards went to Gary Arnold and Billy Yeager. Allen Gullett received the Offensive Lineman Award and Troy Lay received the Offensive Back Award. Allen Gullett also received the Defensive Lineman Award. Billy Yeager was handed the Defensive Back Award, and Troy Lay earned the 110 Percent Award. The Most Improved Award went to Brent Logue and Gary Arnold received the leadership award. Mark Reichenbach was the recipient of the Freshman Award. Coach French will lose seven valuable Seniors from his fighting Scottie squad, but that won’t stop next year's Scottie team. The Mercer team played hard all season long and at times it seemed like they went EVERY WHICH WAY BUT LOOSE. Adrenalin flows as the Scotties prepare to open their season against Eminence.

For the first time in several years Mercer County has a Junior Varsity team. The team, composed of both freshmen and younger varsity players, had a record of 2-2. Coaches Logan and Slone instructed the J.V. team using different combinations of players in each outing. The J.V. team is very important in the varsity program because it gives younger players experience in games before their varsity years. Although the J.V. play- ers have not achieved the abili- ties of the varsity, they could indeed be termed SEMI- TOUGH. Ralph Maness (46) and Calvin Chrisman (25) try to prevent a touchdown pass by Harrodsbura. Mercer and Marrodsburg square off in J.V. action. This was the Scotties final game.

The minds of many fans were already decided as to the fate of the Scottie team. How- ever, the Scotties set out to prove people wrong as they opened their season. By Christmas break, their record was 6-4, with impressive victo- ries over several area powers. The tide of popular opinion had turned and the District crown seemed assured. No longer struggling to prove them- selves, the young Scottie team began to exhibit their inexperi- ence. John Mark Johnson muscles in a shot underneath the basket. 95 With only one returning starter and two others who had only previously dressed varsity, the team hustled to the best of their ability but dropped several close games. Star Bryan Teater, who signed with Western Kentucky University, provided much needed leader- ship, along with the other sen- iors. As tournament time approached, the intensity of play increased, and the Scot- ties rose to the occasion. Even though they lost a close district contest, they surprised a favored Franklin Co. team, with an impressive performance. While others wondered if the Scotties knew Which Way Is Up, they silently proved they were a respectable and often feared team. Cheerleader Linda Schroeder gives a concerned look to the scoreboard.

Senior Danetta Bailey wistfully pon- run ahead of her. ders her last year in track. The 1979-1980 Girls’ Track Team had a lot of potential and a great deal of talent. There were high hopes of big victo- ries for the girls and while there were a few disappoint- ments, the girls represented their school well with many vic- tories, several school records, and eleven girls in the sec- tional meet. The girls were undefeated in dual meets as they prepared for the big meets at the end of the year. Debbie Ridgeway developed into one of the state's finest milers and in doing so, set new school records almost every time she ran. Debbie won the mile in both Regional and Sec- tional meets, qualifying her for the State meet. Ridgeway tied second in the State with a time of 5:25.9. Rita Walker, Tanya Walker, Mechelle Jackson and Jo Nell Harlow broke several school records in relays. They set a school record in the 440 yard relay and set records in the 880 medley relay every time they ran it. However, injury pre- vented these same four from competing in the Regionals, yet they still qualified for Sec- tionals. Nfency Fain and Ellen Richards also qualified for Sectionals. 108 k Time te Cun Susan Parrott sprints the last stretch of the 880 run.

It seems the latter better fitted the 1980 Boys Track Team. The team placed second in team standings at the Regional meet and third at the Sectional track meet. Four Scottie huck- sters placed first in their events in Regionals and three in Sec- tionals. Bad weather condi- tions on the day of the Sec- tional meet hampered many performances, but these four were not affected. Robert Sal- lee placed first in the shot put in the Regional meet with a throw of 48'6 . The senior won the event in the Sectional meet with a throw of 48'10 , advanc- ing him to the State meet. There he tied for second place with a throw of 48'10 , advanc- ing him to the State meet. There he tied for second place with a throw of 48'5 . Todd Anderson did an outstanding job in the discus at the Region- als with a throw of 148'6' which won the event.

However, Coach Larry French was still pleased with his young team. The boys worked very hard to learn the game. Sophomore Kevin Short took low score honors. Despite a losing record, the golf team made a respectable showing, placing 12th out of a field of 20 at the Regional. The future looks good for the golf team. All players will be returning much more experienced. “The Unidentified Flying Oddball,” will no longer exist. 112 Junior Catcher Darryl Adams makes a good play at home to prevent from scoring a Doug Bivins displays his batting stance run. as he awaits the pitch. Coach Amos Black gives his team some words of advice. The 1980 Mercer County Base- ball team was young and inex- perienced, boasting only two Seniors — Jeff Coulter and Jimmy Patterson. Because of this youth and inexperience the team was not expected to do well, but as Spring rolled around and the season began the team surprised a lot of peo- ple by jumping out to a 4-0 record, defeating area teams such as Harrodsburg and Boyle Co. As the season went on the team suffered some losses but wound up with a fine record of 9-7. This young MCHS team surprised a lot of fans by “Coming Home many more times than expected.

Weddin Grade Mae (Carla Bath Sanford) anxiously awaits her stage cue. Slim Blairhouse (Danny Mayes) pleads his case for the hand of Melissa Dugan Evading Bertha Blairhouse (Katrina Daugherty) is no easy job for Homer Hollowbone (Allen Gullett). 118 A dreary shack in the mountains is no place for socialites Hortense, (left, Susan Mayes) and Isabel Todd, (right, Teresa Angel) I thought I was the one who was going to get married! pouts debutante Melissa Dugan, (Jenni Stratton). A curtain call provides the perfect ending to nine weeks of hard work and cheerful togetherness Shiftless hillbilly Homer Hol- lowbone found debutante Mel- issa Dugan’s picture in a news- paper wrapper around some fish. After he wrote a series of letters to Melissa, exaggerating that he was the son of a million- aire, Homer was shocked when a very polished and highly sophisticated Melissa Dugan made an impromptu appear- ance at the Hollowbone shack to inquire about directions to the estate of her millionaire fiance. A well-selected cast and an ironic ending made this three act farce a success. 119 Debut: Der I issiii Cousin Tom (Eddie McGinnis) and Jenm (Paula Shirley) finally manage to work things out the happily ever after ending. Many class practices are scheduled in order to make sure that everything is just right when the curtain goes up. 120 Mollie (Nancy Fain) goes over her lines one last time before going on stage. Jenni (Paula Shirley) concentrates on her character sketch to give a flawless performance. The gang of Mollie, (Nancy Fain) Jenni, (Paula Shirley) Jodie, (Tracy Edmondson) Bruce, (Billy McGinnis) Brad, (Monty McRay) and Tom (Eddie McGinnis) were all excited. At the beginning of summer vacation, the girls were all looking forward to a summer of dating their beaus until Mollie’s flirtatious cousin Lucy Lee from Tugboat, South Carolina, came to visit. Lucy Lee's visit proved to be very upsetting to Jodie, Mollie and Jenni, for the attention of every boy was somewhat pre- occupied. Things looked bad until the resourceful Jodie con- jured the perfect solution of calling Lucy Lee’s southern beau, Randolph Butler, and reporting Lucy Lee's behavior. The conclusion was ironic. Believe it or not, at the end of the play, every girl had cap- tured a boy. Jenni (Paula Shirley) tells Tom (Eddie McGinnis), Jodie (Tracy Edmonson), and Bruce (left. Billy McGinnis) about the upcoming visit of Cousin Lucy Lee. Those dreadful double-name females; I can't stand the way Brad and Bruce moon over her, says Jodie (Tracy Edmonson).

Everyone felt the effects of the great cutbacks taken in the 1979-80 school year. These cutbacks resulted from the increase of inflation and the lesser amounts of money des- ignated to the educational departments. The dietician and kitchen workers found it very difficult to serve lunches both balanced and pleasing to the students’ taste. One way to combat this problem was dis- covered by offering for sale extra food items such as potato chips, cheese snacks, and cookies. Students gladly received the new idea and it provided a way for extra money. Other areas hindered because of inflation were the library and the art and science departments. These were restricted to only replenishing the previous and essential stock and found it impossible to invest in new items; how- ever, the most noticed action taken was the yellow paper. Large quantities were bought because of the decreased cost. It also came as a shock to the eyes of students and teach- ers when they tried to read it. Some teachers felt that the stu- dents were deprived of learn- ing basic things and lost some of the enjoyment of school, due to field trip restriction. 162 Top Left: Lamona Edwards and Pam Lanham prepare foods that they helped to buy for their Home Ec class Far Left: The older books found in the library seem undesirable to Shannon Newman.

And k A beautiful Mercer County High School has undergone several changes in the last year. Many badly needed things and a few extras were added to try to make the school more interest- ing. Three new classes were introduced, two of them being horticulture and drafting. These courses made it possi- ble for students to learn more about career opportunities that are available to them. Civics was also added to the curricu- lum to provide a better under- standing of government and social issues. For the benefit of the students involved in hunt- ing wildlife, a gun safety pro- gram was held. A representa- tive from the Kentucky Depart- ment of Fish and Wildlife con- ducted the meeting. To enrich the learning process of many students, an expansion was made to accommodate special math and reading classes. Also, the long awaited modern- ization of the science lab was completed. It now provides more enjoyment and educa- tional values due to the mod- ern facilities. Top Left: Many students listen atten- tively as a member of the Kentucky Fish and Wildlife Department explains proper hunting techniques Far Left: Mr. McMurry helps Mary Lee Cornish better understand the basics of Civics.

The best way to learn is by experiencing or observing. Several classes were fortunate enough to be able to go on field trips this year. Classes were allowed by many busi- nesses and historical land- marks to tour these facilities and observe work that is done there. Some students were even allowed to participate in the work being done. Inflation and lack of funds hindered many field trips. However, the Board of Education did approve several trips and the students participating in these found them to be very valuable learning experiences. If the event occurred during the day, students were excused from school for the trips. Both stu- dents and teachers agree that a field trip makes a perfect day! 166 Top Left: The Chorus attends a music fes- tival at Eastern Left: Mrs McGlone's busi- ness law class goes to the courthouse to observe actual courtroom procedure Bot- tom Middle: Beverly Johnson experiences floral arranging first hand at Royalty’s Florist Top Middle: The journalism class attends a yearbook conference at Univer- sity of Kentucky Top Right: Carmen Claunch, Tammy Dennis, Tina Edwards, Kelly Clark, and Sharon Devine enjoy the 7th graders' trip to Frankfort. Middle: Speech student Barbara Pike imperso- nates a rabbit to the delight of Mercer ele- mentary school students. Bottom Right: Several sophomore and junior English students attend Thornton Wilder's classic play Our Town at Centre College 167 A. New Way Cf Learnina There are other ways of learning besides study- ing from a book or taking a test. Students enjoyed learning when teachers provided a new type of learning. Teachers do all they possibly can to see that students do well in school and to see that they enjoy it. More students are now learning by experiencing the actual process or theory of what they are studying. Some ways students are doing this are field trips, crafts, experiments, and skits. Some people believe that our school system needs to get back to basics, but many students and teachers alike feel that this new way of learn- ing is very effective and enjoyable. 168 Top Left: Barbara Woods learns about French heritage while making stained glass windows in French class Bottom Left: Varnie Reed and Gary Royalty seem to be enjoying the food they prepared in Adult Living Bottom Middle: Mr. Logan's Junior High Practical Arts Class learns about carpentry by actually constructing a building Top Middle: Mrs. Johnson shows Bryan Teater and Donald Mac Yocum how to put iron-on letters on a T-shirt.

Our school tried to provide all of the extracurricular activities they possibly could and stu- dents showed their apprecia- tion by taking part in them. Many of these students received awards or honors for the work they did in these activities. They should be proud of their accomplish- ments, which encourages oth- ers to get involved and take part in school activities. 172 Top Left: Mrs. Sander's 7th grade history class attends the District History Day Contest at Eastern Kentucky University Those receiving awards are Wendi Miller.

This is a night when students are rewarded for the hard work and dedication they have shown throughout the school year. Each of the students who is hon- ored has excelled academically. Awards are pre- sented in every field of study. Also, those who have had perfect attendance all year are recog- nized on this night.

The overall effects were ones of happiness, anger, and frustration. Even with the rising prices, the teenagers still managed to enjoy themselves.

Week- ends in Harrodsburg are always limited to the sport games of the season, after which students retreated to the legendary McDonald's and Pizza Hut. When both ball seasons were over, the weekends were taken over by the cinemas and drive-ins. For a larger variety of activities students traveled to other places which offer more enjoy- ment. Overall, the most favorite pastime of all was riding around, despite the rising of gas prices. 180 Thank Ccd ■t s Priday Top (Top I. to r.): Bill Million, Kevin Kirkland, Ken Penrod, Nicki Gritton, Darryl Lake.

The discontent over Russian troops in Afghanistan did not inter- fere with the honorable activities in Lake Placid, New York. However, as the new decade began, America was faced with this question: Should the American athletes attend the Moscow Summer Olympics or should they withdraw? After the numerous Amer- ican victories at Lake Placid, a feeling of patri- otism filled the hearts of the Summer and Winter Olympians. At the request of President Carter, the Summer Olympians con- formed to the policy of withdrawing from the Moscow Summer Olym- pics. Tc Eternity i. ln 1980 the students of Mercer High considered themselves the genera- tion with all the luck. In mid-February, President Carter reinstated the draft. The standing ova- tion of Congress left little suspicion to their verdict. Ironically enough, several senior boys celebrated their eighteenth birthday on the very day this national decision was made. Unlike the draft decisions of the past, this decision set a new pre- cedent because women were included. 183 White Christmas?

One of the nicest things about Mercer High School is the unity of the students. Because Mer- cer has always been a relatively small school, the members of the student body have always been well acquainted with one another. This is very obvious as one walks down the halls and sees the often noisy, but mostly friendly, manner of the students at Mercer High Although the days seem similar and sometimes monotonous, every day memories of everlasting friendships are made. Even the gloomiest day is made brighter by the smiling faces and laughing voices in the halls and classrooms throughout the school.

Students were also shocked this year when they didn’t get an extended Christmas vacation because of a mild winter. Thus Jan. 2, students were cast back into the ritual of school approximately 15 days earlier than usual. Throughout January and February there was a feeling of “ho-hum” in every part of school.

This year the club sponsored several pep rallies to support our athletes. The Pep Club also helped arrange an Alumni Night during a basketball game. Later in the year a Spring Sports picnic was held for all athletes participating in any type of spring sports. The Pep Club is one of the strongest clubs held in Mercer County High School, and has big hopes of continuing to be more successful in the years to come.

The club had a bake sale which made enough money for a bus to take them to Louisville. They also sold dec- orative canisters of popcorn to raise money. The Mercer County Beta Club was well rep- resented at the Beta Conven- tion. Eighteen members and a sponsor attended. For years, the Beta Club has collected for the Heart Fund. With the arrival of spring, an initiation for thirty- three new members was held. The new members were asked to dress like Iranians. The Beta Club ended their year with their annual spring picnic at the home of Melissa Estridge. At the picnic, Eddie McGinnis, Beta President, presented a sil- ver tray to Mrs. Broadwater, who was chosen by the club as Teacher of the Year. 200 Tammi Bradford, Melissa Estridge, Elizabeth Hazelwood, and Pam Freeman are all ready to attend the Beta Convention dance Even though these members attended the Beta Club Conven- tion, they are anxious to get back home.

Only the students with outstanding scholastic achievement and exceptional overall qualities can be members of the society. Though the club was not very active this year, they did send boxes of fruit and Christmas cards to the rest home. On Honors Night, the National Honor Society held a reception for the new members and their families. There were eleven new members inducted into the Society. The sponsors hope that in the years to come the National Honor Society will have a large membership.

Some of the projects were selling Current Station- ery” to raise money for the club. They also held their annual book fair to raise money for the library. The club celebrated midterm with a Christmas party for the mem- bers. During National Library Week, the club held a Book Mark Contest for the seventh graders. Out of forty entries there were three winners who received free admission to the movie ‘‘Sammy's Super T- Shirt. At the end of the year, to show their appreciation for many years of devotion to the Library, the Library Club held a retirement party in honor of Mrs. Hensley, a school librar- ian.

This year the chorus participated in many Christmas activities. The chorus traveled to many churches to sing and participate in Christmas ceremonies. A Christmas program was also held at school. During the middle of the school year several members participated in a Soloist contest in Richmond and achieved supe- rior ratings. There was also an Easter program held in which the chorus sang at several churches. The chorus later took part in a festival at Eastern. The last concert held by the chorus was at the Baccalaureate. This was a sad but memorable experience, especially for the senior chorus members.

The Mercer County High School Band participated in marching contests with Dan- ville, Adair County, and More- head. At the Morehead contest they received a rating of excel- lent. This year the band had seventeen members who per- formed solos at the State con- test. They received four superi- ors, twelve excellents, and one good. The band participated in the fair and Christmas parade in both Harrodsburg and Sal- visa. They also gave a Christ- mas concert for the high school. On April 30 and May 1, the band went on a Spring Tour and gave concerts at Casey County High School, Wayne County High School, and Clin- ton Elementary School. During this time they spent the night at Barren River State Park. Dur- ing the 1979-1980 school year, the band did a remarkable job.

The trip con- sisted of French presentations by two college professors. Another event that took place was making crapes, a popular recipe among the French. A tradition was started this year as the club held its first Christ- mas party, which turned out to be very successful. 208 rroni row: HeDecca Dean (President), Anne Stratton (Vice President).

To the public’s delight, the following night Free Fare gave an encore per- formance. To add to the Christmas spirit at school, the council had a door decorating contest. The theme was An Old-Fashioned Christmas.” The senior stu- dents of Mrs. Murray's home- room received a $25 prize. A $15 prize was captured by Mrs. Flores' freshman homeroom. Mrs. Short’s seventh grade homeroom “hung on by tack- ling third place for a $10 prize. It was difficult to decide the winners because each home- room did an excellent job of decorating. Issues the council faced were the infrequent pep rallies and the continuous debate on the length of each and, of course, the school lunches. Mrs. Murray's and Miss McPhaill’s senior homeroom is the winner of the door deco- rating contest. Ange Zysk and Michelle Young are desperately trying to decide how to create a unique door.

The chapter started their year by participating in money making projects. With the money they made, they contributed to the State FHA Scholarship Fund and projects for the Compre- hensive Care Rainbow House. At the beginning of the year, a swimming party was held at the home of Marsha and Mary Lee Cornish. In November, mem- bers brought canned goods for the food bank, which is used for the emergency relief fund. Other events taking place were the program on drug abuse, a school campaign for saving valuable energy, and a lesson on self protection. In May, the club had a parent-student ban- quet at which Mrs. Lunsford spoke on, “Joy Springing Forth.” At the last meeting of the year, the 1980-81 officers were installed and a tea was given in honor of the graduat- ing members. On the last day of school, the chapter ended with a skating party at the Wind Jammer. At the swimming party.

The Vica Club officers went to Winchester where they received trophies in Opening and Closing Ceremonies. In the regional wiring contest, Gary Arnold received a second place trophy, Monty Brittoh got third, while Randy Grider received fourth place. The largest event held by the club was the Florida Boys Con- cert held on March 20. The members sold tickets and were pleased with the large turn-out.

There was a Halloween party for Burgin first graders, a Christmas party for the kindergarten children and a St. Patrick's Day party for Teacher’s Appreciation Tea. Mercer County has four FBLA members who hold a co-op job: Sandra Godbey, Debbie Hobbs, Bobbi Huffman, and Norma White. Each student put in working hours at a company to improve their typing skills.

The club also sold posters, calendars, key chains, and other things for the Bright Company. They took a trip to Lexington's Vet- erans Hospital. The students had a chance to observe differ- ent happenings and to learn more about the medical field. To celebrate Christmas, the club held a Christmas party. For Easter they had a party for the Burgin Kindergarten chil- dren. To end the year, the HOSA Club joined with the other vocational clubs and held a farewell party for the seniors. 215 Hollywood's hottest gossip Rona Barrett (Tammi Bradford) quizzes Cleopatra (Joy Testa) about the premiere.

On Novem- ber 1, at Mercer Co. High School, many fans waited anxiously as the star-studded yearbook staff presented A NEW DECADE OF STARS. The skit was a big hit with everyone. Mrs. John- son said, It was the best skit I have seen since I have been teaching here. To promote yearbook sales, the staff also ordered T-shirts with the theme depicted on them. They also attended Press Day at U.K. to learn how to make an interesting yearbook.

The disc jockey was Dave Murray from Lexing- ton's station WVLK. Most of the Jr. High students attended the dance. Mechelle Jackson, the Jr. High Council's vice-presi- dent, said, Being on the coun- cil has a lot of hard work involved. There has to be a lot of time and thought put into each of the meetings. Cheryl Sanders, Tabby Patterson, and Mechelle Jackson spend a lot of time discuss- ing future plans for the council. 218 tiand in liand Robin Davenport finds that drawing signs for the Coed Y Club is more fun than listen- ing in class.

The Co-Ed Y Club is new at Mercer this year; it is a commu- nity and school service club. The club started off by having two bake sales to raise money. During Teachers’ in-service days, they worked very hard to keep the children occupied while the teachers attended meetings. Several members of the club went to Kentucky United Nations Assembly and to the Kentucky Youth Assem- bly. The Chamber of Com- merce asked the club to fix door prizes for their banquet. They also collected for the Red Cross. The Coed Y Club is hop- ing to form a bigger and better club in the near future. 219 Dirt Elizabeth Hazelwood: first woman president in the history of Mercer's FFA. The Future Farmers of Amer- ica began their year doing their usual activities. The green- house played an important role with the work in which they participated.

Every member of the senior class equally agreed that the juniors did a splendid job of preparing a memorable prom. The colors, dec- orating, band, and prom theme, “We've Got Tonight, were all chosen after hours of commit- tee meetings. The endless hours of hard work transformed a bare, lifeless gym into a spring fan- tasy land. Those attending the prom only saw a finished product, for the Junior class had their work cut out for them long before the decorating began. Most of the funding was made by selling fruit this year and in previous years. Teresa Parham and Lisa Moore work carefully with crepe paper to conceal the bleachers. Terri King and Pat Jones straighten the ceiling from a scaffold. Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Phelps, Alan Britton, Ellen Richards and Linda Schroeder work on the difficult task of hanqinq the ceilina. Although decorating requires hours of work, the finished product makes it all worthwhile. Music was provided by the rock band.

Tommy Ashford realizes that the long-awaited moment is over 229 Epilogue Almost When temperatures rise and both students’ and teachers’ tempers begin to flare, one can be practically sure that summer vaca- tion is getting close. With finals and class projects it is often hard for Mercer students to fully enjoy the first days of spring. So all eyes and minds look forward to the freedom of summer. For seniors, these few months of sun and fun are a last fling before their pursuit of life. For the rest of the school, summer is a brief reprieve from the rigors and responsibilities of getting an education. Although the school year is ending, all thoughts are aimed on the future because it’s almost summer. 230 Thoughts of sunny days and vacation time seems to be on the minds of Monty McRay and Robin Burke. Right: Lounging in the sun is one of Tanya Walker's favorite activities. m The last days of school culminated in a party at Gilbert's Creek for Jimmy Patterson, Bob Hahn, Darryl Lake, John Mark Johnson, Jayne Wheelee, and Jeff Coulter. The coming of spring means getting out of doors for Patty Jones, Jean Ruby, Leisha Coffman, and Lamona Edwards. Summer The pressures of the school day have overcome this exhausted student 231 The Way We Were The year 1979-80 will always be remem- bered as the end of an era, the beginning of a decade. Changes in people, lifes- tyles, and outlooks were all witnessed by the students of Mercer County High School. In this year alone, the United States has experienced greater threats to her national pride. A new sense of patriot- ism surfaced and became audibly evident during the Winter Olympics as the U.S. took the gold in an upset victory in hockey. Nationally, the people were united, and Mercer High also radiated a sense of closeness. Although bad weather dampened many school activi- ties, the strength of friendship prevailed. Togetherness seemed to be the watch- word for the year. Everywhere kids were together, working, studying, or just hav- ing fun. The comings and going of friends and classmates created some sad moments credited to the pains of growing up. The memories made during the 1979- 80 school year were good ones, unforget- table ones. ‘‘The Way We Were will always be remembered. 232 a spirit of happiness a ray of hope through the darkness .
