A loud beat or a soft rhythm, the music provides the background for the words which have special mean- ing for us as teenagers. We are often unaware of the lyrics of songs we hear, but nevertheless we receive the messages the words convey. Many times a certain phrase or line of a song will express our feelings better than we ourselves can. Consciously or unconsciously, we derive some form of enjoyment from what we oe ee Se wR 4 ; Welcome to the Variety Show at Midlothian High School. Right: Isn’t that Clint Eastwood standing behind the cheering Sam Giles? hear. The different lyrics and tunes make a lasting impres- sion on us. Songs we listen to today will bring pictoral or emotional memories to mind when heard in later years. A victory song may make us think of the first touchdown of the season. A disco song may remind us of the disco craze. And, of course, there is that one cherished slow song that will evoke memories of eve- ning dresses, tuxedoes, and the time spent with that special person at the senior prom. The songs we hear today will become a part of us and will remain with us to be cherished in the future. The cheerleaders win with their three-to-one tackle. Many students look forward to the end of the day when the bus pulls out of the parking lot.

From science and math to English and history, a wide scope of ideas are in- troduced for the student to develop in his Own way. “A time when dreams so long denied can flourish—” The last year of high school, a time of change for seniors, is when seniors begin to realize their dream of college or trade. Plans are followed that lead to a dream career, and through these plans, seniors become indepen- dent and responsible people. “Where are you going to; do you know?—” Many questions, difficult answers, and little time compose the year for juniors. A junior faces a tough academic year that includes preparation for the selection of a favorite col- lege; however, little time is available to ac- complish everything because of a more active social life. “White lace and promises—” New to Midlo- thian, sophomores are promised a more ac- tive social life and a less rigid school day. Sophomores soon learn, though, that there is more work necessary to achieve high scores than ever before. As for their social life, soph- omores are exposed to a variety of activities and must choose the ones right for them. “It takes every kind of people to make what life’s about.—” A united group of individuals makes for a successful club. Everyone is unique at Midlothian, and each person here has a choice of many different activities—from debate to frisbee—that will suit his interests. “We can never know about the days to come, but we think about them anyway—” What kind of year will this be? Each student wonders what activities will be held during Homecoming Week, who will be their date for the prom, how the Talent Show will turn out, what S.C.A. officers will be selected for the next year, and just how each day will turn out. “No time for losing—’’ Midlothian has champions in every sport. From football to tennis, each team spends a great deal of time practicing, and all of this effort and dedication makes losing a rare occasion during each season. ‘he wif 2 Nick Ciucci is forcefully fed by Eric Turner during lunch. Traditionally, boys dressed as cheerleaders entertain students during the Powder Puff game. Theme 5 According to Mike Spencer, the traditional way of giving a speech is with your eyes closed. Songs In The Key Of Life—a note about Many extracurricular activities offered the student not only the chance to meet new friends, but also the opportunity to broaden their educational experiences. These activities pro- vided almost all students with a place to pursue their special interests or display their individual talents. Those students who were interested in public speaking and current events found extemporaneous speaking and forensics extremely appealing. Students had thirty minutes to research a current event for their extemporaneous speech, while students chose what they would read for forensics. Competition in both of these activities led to contests on district and regional levels. Visiting another region of the world was intriguing to many students. During spring break, several groups from the lan- guage department offered students the chance for a romantic adventure in Europe. But those students who were unable to make a trip to Europe found the foreign exchange assembly during Language Week very informative. During Language Week, foreign exchange students from many countries were interviewed by students at Midlothian. Each of these activities offered students the opportunity to improve their knowledge of other cultures. The Drama Department at Midlothian extended to all stu- dents the opportunity to exhibit their talents on stage. Partici- pating in a play, whether it be as a member of the cast or as a member of the stage crew, gave students the chance to de- | velop new friendships. However, all those taking part in the play had to be earnest in their desire to participate because such participation required a great deal of time and energy. 6 Academics Jesse Green gives Melanie Price a lesson on how to eat an ice cream cone. pale he a RS A little hanky-panky on stage? ...

A new program involving cooperation be- tween the community and the teachers called - Law Day was introduced this past fall. It origi- nated in the minds of administrators who came up with this new program in order to fill a course { requirement. The program was discussed with the Social Studies Department, and all thought it would provide the students with a chance to talk with experts and learn many things that would not be learned in class. Also, it would be of value to stu- dents in relation to their future. The Social Stud- ies Department became the sponsor of the program. The purpose of Law Day was to give students the opportunity to question authorities in differ- ent legal fields. The social studies teachers told their students the general areas that would be covered so they could prepare questions to ask. When the day came, students from the Social Studies Department visited with the authorities on an individual basis; this was not a lecture. Representatives were both local and state, and included Mrs. Joan Girone as well as an F.B.I. Nan Graham and Mary Matthews question Morton Walker of the Bon Air Learning agent. Both were well received. Teachers hoped Center. to expose students to these people and then get some student input. All involved thought it was worthwhile and a success. A vibrant speaker is found in Cheryl Bryant of the Diagnostic Center. A group of students listen to explanations from Trooper Baggott.

Paul Humphreys closes his eyes hoping to forget that the entire audience con- sists of upperclassmen. 10 Academics Laura Perry was caught giving her speech with her eyes closed. Preparing a speech in thirty minutes is not an easy task. However, this did not intimidate the volunteers for the 1978-1979 Extemporaneous Speaking. Of the nine participants, each proved that he was capable of performing well under pressure. Topics were chosen from articles on current events appearing in Time, Newsweek, and U.S. News and World Report. Each person re- searched one of the three topics he had chosen. After making his selection, he was allowed thirty minutes in the library to prepare for the five minute speech. Judges for the Extempo raneous Speaking were Mrs. Driver, Mr. Rowlett, Mrs. Pappalardo, and Mr. Hester. The contestants were judged on thought content, clarity of organization, ade- quacy of supporting details, and poise. Speeches were on inflation, political parties, women’s rights, tax revolt, and foreign affairs. David Price won first place with his speech on foreign affairs in Afghanistan. David will go on to represent Midlothian High School in the state competition. Andy Wakefield uses his hands in place of visual aide.

Charles Darwin? Origin of Species? If one were not familiar with this man and his theories before he attended the Midlothian Drama De- partment’s winter production, then the play In- herit the Wind was probably informative as well as entertaining. During the play, one discovered that Charles Darwin was the originator of the theory of evolu- tion known as Darwinism. Darwin developed this theory in his book The Origin Of Species. Bertram Cates’, Timmy Williamson, teaching of Darwin’s theory of evolution created a wide and profound sensation among the whole commu- nity of this small town. Darwin’s work was viewed as conflicting with the prevailing inter- pretation of the scriptures. Cates was brought to trial in this small town in 1925, and his case soon became nationally known as the Scopes Monkey Trial. The play ran from Thursday, February 15, through Saturday, February 17. Seven inches of snow on Tuesday night postponed the play which was originally scheduled to begin on Wednesday, February 7. Although this at first seemed an insurmountable problem for the Drama Department, it did provide time for an- other rehearsal. The brilliant performance was appreciated by all those who attended. -opes Monkey i Cc t when her husband falls to the ground.

The comedy Barefoot in the Park had the smallest cast Midlothian has had in several years. Competition for the parts created great anxiety among those who auditioned because there were only six characters. Rehearsal for the play began soon after school started. Three months of time and effort was evi- dent opening night. The play opened on Wednesday, November 8, and ran through Sat- urday. Although most plays have a considerable amount of confusion, Barefoot in the Park ran smoothly with one exception. In the play Victor Velasco, a gourmet cook, served the Bratter fam- ily a dish called “niche.” For most performances, the cast used vienna sausages, but one night a member of the stage crew substituted sardines for sausages. Although this may have been diffi- cult for the cast to swallow, they ate it without disrupting the action of the play. Mrs. Banks, Corie’s mother, is greeted by Corie and Paul Bratter in their new home. Academics From Cosmetology to Electronics Yes, there is an alternative to college. If a stu- dent does not want to attend college, but would like to improve his skills in certain trades, the Technical Center offers courses ranging from auto mechanics, to electronics, to nursing. A bus is provided to transport students to and from the center each day. Students spend three periods of the school day at the Technical Cen- ter. After the completion of any of these courses, students are prepared to obtain a job in which he can use his new skills. Cindy Lipscomb and Burt Rogers look at newly developed pictures.

Center. 16 Academics Tourists To many students, the thought of touring Eu- rope is merely a dream. However, for some stu- dents at Midlothian this dream became a reality during spring break. Mrs. Robertson, a Latin teacher, accompanied a group to Italy; and two Spanish teachers, Mrs. Flippen and Mrs. Hop- kins, escorted groups to Spain. The students who visited Rome were particu- larly lucky because they were in the Vatican while the Pope was delivering his Easter message. In Spain, the trip included tours of the major cities. Torre Molinos proved to be a great place to get a little sun before returning to the United States. The students spent one week in Europe. All who went on these trips agreed that the culture and the knowledge that they gained would never be forgotten. The Latin students stood in awe of the fountains in Tivoli. 2¥ oF TTA ANN 4; seserieetir Sor Mr. and Mrs. Robertson, Tammy Cawthorne, and Sarah Selby enjoy a walk in the streets of Florence.

In the musical, the appearance of a fiddler on the roof of Tevye’s house was an ordinary and recurrent event. Fiddler On the Roof told the story of a Jew- ish man named Tevye and his family. Tevye lived with his family in the Jewish community of Ana- tevka. Tevye and his family adhered strictly to the doctrines of the Jewish faith. Throughout the entire play, one was made aware of the many Jewish traditions. These traditions ranged from the role played by each member of the house- hold, to the role of the matchmaker in the com- munity, to the role of the Jewish faith in their daily lives. However, by the end of the play, many of these traditions had been ignored in or- der to maintain the happiness and unity of the family. The cast, director, and stage crew had all spent many hours preparing for their presentation of Fiddler On The Roof. But, on opening night they knew that their work and their time had not been wasted. All those who attended the play agreed that they had witnessed not only a brillant dra- matic performance, but also a magnificent musi- cal production. After being told they must leave Anatevke, Tevye and Golde become very upset. 18 Academic CAS ILORCHARAGTERS TOVY Css osed hvcss tote letalesen studies eeaeceds Wicd eSOat igen peta Ventre e tetpete orem ne John Fechino, Jr. Xo) (0 (Param emrrr tenner ier eri ein here. yh aymad Gila Alan Lynne Mercure T ZOMG Shisesdeath Sitcspesceatecuceensuucenestsetetes thakacs tenet eet detente teens Oe tne ene Liz McIntyre HOE) sesccccscsedeccgece deeasten ecm cee teaee tee te Dae cue est aeeen sa Lee ean aC Oe eReEEE Carolyn Hunter Chava hich tices tietersesursteecsteeerst ovis ccereetcetemevt i eeiey hs cce eh ate er eee meee Donna Ruggiero SPVintZe bic...co Uh saseecetsasscetoetaseen csetust ye statuers uc dters cere ener eee Susan Bailey Bielka deisccidscovseesisaRebtecds cs ceteea sb cok teeven tet eet tesecaee er eee oe ny eeeent eee Jeannette Faison Yent@ 22.2 eee woasthascses hash dens suc tecmee cone CeCee weedeat s ent TORR eC e eee nn Andrea Meyers Motel ii.:.:.cteitcieceette toneececesceten a etiiee te tee coeteceries Entre er anon eT ame anne Mike Spencer Per chi cscsscsscsicaseeieree anteter ithe tern erastia ere ttre ve te reteset tree ete merrier Charles Sewall Lazar=WOlfs Shs ssectesnteren attearce tities aemrves Incceetetree cotta reese Steve Enderle MOrdGhid tres nesctececssusesccnceestccsarics teeta sctccteserteies att clits irene reeset ee ene Kevin Hall Rabbi ice wi tieseast tease, corecstetuectoesoatecreceteeaeeres Peaeer te Uae Cnt eset a aneeeeen Doug Jaeger Calle [2] Rreermnrn L come enna cariia eels money Lahn s cite Oe ties Jeff Lynn AVIADV Ya Risectfer ness ck Sos cat taaccovnttdscvesuicsornetccrs saccateeoriee settee otc teen eae eer Jim Glass NACI sas ZitalteB as ccs testes eevee ulawber tes nk aventura Kevin Jones Grandma=Izeltel.coscnysrretsenurencter cnc teltes renee rer terete eee Cathy Slemp Fruma-Saran.s.c..snstecvercntncnueh eine ie ee ore ene iareny eee Claire McKenzie Fy Ola tas:teavteccaacite.scevscactetantentsecteescact toes cold ee aes I Sena Bill Freimuth CONStAD IG EEA seb ete ieteees fess cct coumcea gto ete RUPE Fen eert ree Or ante ae Brian Yuhase DASA ss bebeccsensecscctrcacateeercninte Syseduneeecas te Guatoti eotwr teria Mitete mere eee Maury Bareford Sham el sts. 2005.

These students were making plans for both the foreign exchange student assembly and the taster’s supper. This year Language Week took place over a period of two weeks instead of the usual week. The Language Department was forced to change the date for the taster’s supper because of the heavy accumulation of snow which had caused the schools to close for a total of ten days. This year’s foreign exchange student assembly took place on March 1. Two students from Midlo were present at each assembly to question the foreign exchange students. The panel con- sisted of seven students from Germany, Sweden, Canada, Argentina, New Zealand, Chile, and Co- lumbia. They were asked such questions as, “What do you do during free time?” and “What do you plan to study in college?” The sixth annual Midlothian Taster’s Supper was on March 10th. The supper gave students the chance to try salads, vegetables, main dishes, and desserts from many countries. This year life- sized drawings of children from all parts of the world were used to decorate the cafeteria where the supper was held. Usually, the money from the taster’s supper goes to aid a student at Midlo who is planning to participate in the foreign exchange program dur- ing the summer. However, this year the net profit from the taster’s supper increased, so the Lan- guage Department was able to present two scholarships instead of the usual one. Pam Eu- bank and Lisa Selph were the happy recipients of these scholarships. All the students who at- tended agreed that both the taster’s supper and the assembly had provided for them an opportu- nity to take a closer look at countries outside the United States. The arranging of the food marks the beginning of the night’s activities. 20 Academics yeti m waa J we a . a Se eA Seek Mrs. Jones is taken aback by Cathy Slemp’s costume. i) ; ' t ! y All the foreign exchange students seem to be eagerly awaiting their chance to _ The foreign exchange students seem to be in deep thought over this question. speak.

If you are flying from Nevada to Kansas, what two states would you pass over? These were two of the questions asked of the teams of students involved in the Battle of the Brains contest. At the end of Febru- ary, the members of the teams were chosen through intra-school competition. The five team members chosen from Midlothian were Kevin Hopkins (captain), Mike Kontos, Todd Hylton, Scott Faison, and Matt Walker. Their sponsor was Mr. Hester, a history teacher, and _ their coach was Scott Galbreaith. The Midlothian team competed with other high schools in Chesterfield County. When a question was asked, the first team to respond had the opportunity to answer the question cor- rectly. These questions were then followed by bonus questions. All competition was held at L.C. Bird High School, except for the finals which were held at the top ranking school. WCVE Channel 23 telecast the quarterfinals, semi-finals, and finals. The rules were like that of the old “College Bowl” program. When the finals were over, Midlothian proved to be one of the top ranking schools in the county. The performance of our dedicated team members reflected the academic caliber of our school.

The art festival was held from March 30 to April 1 at the new Lloyd C. Bird High School. The festival included exhibitions and performances from elemen- tary, junior high, and senior high schools within Chesterfield AE wal fa Ai) 6 County. POSITIVE | i The title “art festival” led one to believe that it was con- cerned entirely with art work, but this was not true. It included many of the fine arts-drama, music, foreign languages, and folk dancing. Both the Midlothian Honor Guard Drill Team, and the band performed at the festival. Midlothian’s drama department presented a short one-act play. A reception was held the first night of the art festival. During this reception, the students presented a piece of art work to their district representatives on the Chesterfield County School Board. After viewing the exhibits, all agreed that there was a variety of talent among the students of Chesterfield County. The art festival has been conducted each of the past four years and has become an event that is anticipated and appreciated by many. ae “pias ccxnstttentinte hae sonatas Ce ee Fo aes al 7 = Fs al $: Are these two furry creatures part of the exhibit?

Songs In The Key Of Life—a note about : Because high school is a preparation for each student’s future, the wisdom each teacher gives students is certainly an important element in- volved. Not only does the student look to teach- ers for instruction, but he often depends upon them for guidance in other areas of his educa- tional life. Teachers at Midlothian possess the qualities necessary to meet the needs of their students. The superior quality of the Midlothian teachers was proven this year in the Chesterfield County Teacher of the Year contest. Mrs. Ledbetter won the title of Teacher of the Year for Business, and Mrs. Robertson was named Teacher of the Year for Foreign Language. Every year there are a few new teachers, as well as a few who leave. Approximately ten new teachers came to Midlothian for 1978-1979 in- stead of the average three or four. Sadly, a few teachers left during the school year either in re- tirement or to pursue other fields of endeavor. Mrs. Robertson is not amused with Paul Franck’s remark. 24 Faculty he pe yous AT Howl: Fr+mE TAN (of ice OSS as COA. ‘ “dact CPot c nard Teac frre Don ijttper i a A graffiti board wishes Mrs. Wolfe the best of luck. ...

Faculty 25 Speaking Words of Wisdom ... Although there is a considerable amount of work and responsibility in- volved in running a school like Midlo- thian, our administrators do a remark- able job. They are the overseers of every- thing that goes on at Midlothian. Be- sides their regular office duties, they have many other extra responsibilities. An administrator is in attendance at each football and basketball game. At every musical and theatrical perfor- mance one is present to make sure that everything runs smoothly. They spend many countless hours after the regular school day determining pol- icies for our school. However, despite the long demanding hours that our administrators endure, all three seem care te generally to have a quick smile or a reassuring word for the students. Mr. Poates shows he can get as grubby as anyone else. = Ror A comforting smile from Mrs. Richardson. 26 Faculty SA SSeS x wa ; 4 4 7 ete ditnn te Thank goodness for breaks!

Faculty 27 Establishing Guidelines for Student Needs The Guidance Department is with- out a doubt one of the most impor- tant departments at Midlothian. They deal with students personal problems as well as their problems with SAT’s, achievement tests and schedules. The senior counselor helps seniors fill out college applications and _ tran- scripts. They also fill out college rec- ommendations with hopes that their efforts will help the student be ac- cepted into college. The junior and sophomore counselors advise stu- dents with schedules which will help them later in life in their career choices. 28 Faculty Mrs. Goodwin, the senior counselor, prepares students for college Mrs. Jones eagerly welcomes another junior Mrs. Hughes checks up on one of her working students ° a . “J a dl i Sees pee eee : reo EN pee eet wen Mrs. Barnes, the guidance secretary is busy organizing the hectic schedule. Faculty 29 Taking Care of Business The monumental task of the office staff was to keep Midlothian running smoothly. They handled all the paper- work that came through the office. Mrs. Lavender kept busy in the morn- ing writing student absence notes, typing the absence sheets, and deal- ing with the correspondence in the main office. Mrs. Frady, the school’s bookkeeper, kept all of the schools and club’s accounts in perfect order. Volunteer student aides proved to be a great help in filing, xeroxing and aid- ing the staff in other ways. By working together the staff and aids managed to get the work done correctly and on time.

By lunch time, most students were hungry enough to eat anything, but luckily the staff managed to provide us with a meal resembling a feast. They did an excellent job of providing us ail with a broad range of lunches. They served hot lunches, sandwiches, salads, and milkshakes. These lunches often supplied needed energy to fin- ish the school day. eo hia Since DS SNC ih ica cael Another satisfied customer pays for lunch. | £8 io a . a A member of the cafeteria staff prepares one of the , . students favorite dishes.

Faculty 31 “To be or not to be...” The English Department tried to ex- pand each student’s knowledge of the language itself and its different types of literature. Beowolf, MacBeth, and Chaucer's Canterbury Tales are fa- mous works that were taught to se- niors. Juniors studied American litera- ture and the Scarlet Letter while sophomores concentrated on the short story and Julius Caesar. Besides literature, grammar and writing skills were also stressed because every stu- dent needs to be able to express his thoughts and ideas to others cor- rectly. At the same time all students were constantly drilled on spelling and grammar rules. Thesis and term . papers also played an active role in the curriculum. Thus, the English De- partment prepared each student in the skills of correctly communicating with one another.

Those without a chemistry background might well ask what in the world that means. And what is a vector in phys- ics? And what are those fuzzy things growing in the biology rooms? An- swers to these and other seemingly weird questions were provided by the Midlothian Science Department. Mr. Kirchner went beyond the usual method of teaching physics by having his students set off model rockets. Be- fore they could set them off, they had to build them and learn about accel- eration and velocity first. However, when they did set off the rockets, the one factor they had not taken into much consideration was the wind. Many of the rockets ended up either deep in the woods or stuck in the tops of the trees. Those are the breaks of any experiment. Through experiments such as this and others the Science Department. proved that their students could still have fun while at the same time learning.

The job of the Math De- partment was to break down and sim- plify that definition and teach it to students through logic and the prac- tice of daily assignments. Midlothian offers a variety of elective math pro- grams to aspiring mathematicians and those students interested in furthering their mathematical abilities. All of these meet the individual needs of each student while allowing him to excel in math. And, believe it or not, x° + 11 (9n) is not the totality of the lives of the people who taught our most demanding math courses. At least it’s not supposed to be.

The World History course en- compassed ancient civilizations as well as more recent global affairs, while government studies empha- sized current events. Geography of- fers instruction not only on geo- graphic locations but also people’s customs and habits. The History teachers encouraged such activities as the “Battle of the Brains,” Mock elections, a Mock gen- eral assembly, and the classroom debates. All of the histories attempted to build tomorrow’s citizens in a way that makes them appreciate the free- dom in a democratic society, as well as the peoples of other countries.

Faculty 37 Reading and Running The Physical Education Department offers a wide range of activities for the athletes at Midlothian such as basket- ball, softball, and dance, to mention only a few. Sophomores were required to take physical education where they were taught such courses as mental health and driver education. In driver educa- tion each student was taught 1.P.D.A.—Identify, Predict, Decide, and Act. This is the driver’s decision process, which became a very familiar formula by the end of the semester. Juniors and seniors took physical edu- cation as an elective where they could learn mountain climbing (over school walls), swimming, and bowling. The library, another vital asset at Midlothian, is well equipped to handle any research problem a stu- dent might have. They keep a good stock of books and magazines for the students’ pleasure. Our librarians are well trained to find even the most ob- scure bits of information required. Ron Lester—Advanced P.E.

In the past year language classes stud- ied the culture and history which ac- companies all the languages. Special projects and reports livened classes up a bit while giving students a break from their regular studies. The high- light of the activities of the Language Department came with Language Week. Ancient Romans, Spanish la- dies, French vineyards, and German polkas were dominant during that week. Through the efforts of the lan- guage teachers, French, Latin, Ger- man, and Spanish thrived. Evaline Jones—French IV, V Faculty 39 Learning a Trade Through Experience The Vocational Department pre- pares each student interested in voca- tional training. These students gener- ally do not plan to attend college; therefore, they are learning some type of a trade. The Vocational Depart- ment here at Midlothian trains stu- dents in the areas of distributive edu- cation, industrial arts, mechanical drawing, and others. While learning and gaining practical experience at the same time, students are well pre- pared to enter the vocational job market. For example, students en- rolled in fashion merchandising learned all the major fashion design- ers, and their styles. They were also employed by various fashion. stores around our area. Through the various courses offered by the vocational de- partment, students were well pre- pared to handle any situation. “Sain swmnasi nitinol ati ittssmpoe sO Beverly Atkisson—D.E. |, Il; Fashion 40 Faculty Denise Pendergrass—Home Ec. |, Il, Ill, IV, V Elizabeth Perry—D.E. |, Il, Ill Vatel Dixon—!ndustrial Arts II Lee Wilton—General Business Lorena Jefferson—Typing | Mary Martin—Typing | Pc oc acecmammanaaal ease “ Arcelle Collier—Accounting; Block; COE Betty Rice—Steno I, Il; COE A Format for the Career Oriented The Business Department offers many different choices for students who wish to take some type of busi- ness course such as typing, business, clerical accounting, and others. General business and typing are the most common business courses taken at Midlothian. Students taking general business learn such things as income tax preparation and accounting prin- ciples. Typing is taken by just about every student here at Midlothian. Typing business letters, having timed writings, and struggling through term papers was unpleasant, but most agreed after the course was over that it was very worthwhile preparation. Each one of the courses in the busi- ness department prepared students for the trials and tribulations in the business world. Gail Ledbetter—Typing |; Personal Typing Faculty 41 Media for Self-Expression Students with talents in art, drama, and music can expand their abilities in the fine arts through the various elec- tive programs. Art is one of the greatest forms of self-expression. Through Midlothian’s Art Department, students were able to freely create and work to develop their own artistic talents. Students were offered course choices ranging from crafts to more advanced art classes. Drama students were offered a chance to become amateur actors and actresses in plays produced in their classes. Novice drama students were taught the basics of dramatic acting tactics, and more advanced students increased their skills in acting and dramatic interpretation and production. Students interested in music found that they had a wide variety of musi- cal activities in which to participate. They ranged from band to orchestra to chorus. Whether singing or playing a musical instrument, the student found enjoyment in the music department. Jim Hale—Adyv. Band; Int.

Gail Ledbetter, business teacher at Midlothian High School, was chosen as the Chesterfield County Teacher of the Year, 1978-79. Miss Ledbetter has been teaching f or seven years—all of them at Midlo- thian. She came to our school system in 1972 as a student teacher at Ma- toaca High School. She received both her undergraduate and graduate de- grees at Virginia State College. Her portfolio presented to the county selection committee revealed Gail’s enthusiasm, dedication, profes- sional achievements, and career com- mitment. In fact, she comes highly recommended from colleagues, ad- ministrators, and students as an ex- emplary educator. Congratulations Miss Ledbetter! EXTRA! EXTRA!

Did we know where we were going? We were told that there was no time better than our high school years to decide what we were going to do with our lives. It was the time for one to set certain goals for his life. We had only just begun to make important decisions that would effect our entire future. Our life first began to change in t enth grade. As sophomores, we faced harder classes, harder teachers, and an increase in homework. How- ever, as sophomores we also attended our first homecoming dance and our first high school football game. During our junior year in high school, our guidance counselor told us it was time for us to start deciding where we would like to go to col- lege and what career we would like to pursue. In our junior year we ordered our high school ring. We made preparations for the junior-senior prom and took our SAT’s for the first time. As seniors, we realized that it was time for us to make definite plans concerning college. We made many trips to the guidance counselor’s of- fice in an attempt to interpret our college appli- cations. Finally, on graduation day we realized that it was time for us to begin accomplishing those goals we had set in the past. John Fechino and Lorah Hunter were one of the many couples at the Home- coming Dance. Mark McConnell is suspicious of the photographer’s motives. ...

Classes 45 '79 Seniors The class of 1979 had an exciting year at Midlothian despite the uncertainties they faced. At first seniors were bewil- dered by the loss of their class sponsor. At the end of the first semester, there was some question as to whether senior exemption for exams would be ob- served. Thankfully, it was decided that seniors could be exempted. When the blizzard struck and ten days of school were missed, seniors began to worry about whether the make-up days would affect spring break and graduation. Fi- nally, the school board decided to ex- tend the last days of school, allowing se- niors to graduate on the planned date. All the worries seemed magically to dis- appear as June 7 finally arrived!

Evil thoughts run through Mark Lambert’s mind. Deep Thinking? Many thoughts crossed the minds of seniors during their last year of high school. Matters concerning gradu- ation were perhaps the most preva- lent. The activities for graduation like class day, baccalaureate, and gradu- ation were pleasant things to dream of, but the problems of their futures were also on their minds—college, jobs, work, marriage. The uncertainty of the future combined with the happy thoughts of time spent in high school kept them wondering and thinking.

Seniors 51 Just before Christmas vacation, Mr. Kirchner, the new physics teacher, gave each physics student a present. This present was an Seniors Estes Rocket which they were instructed to put together over the holidays. When they came back to school, so did the rockets, which were painted every color in the rainbow and decorated with almost Lift everything imaginable. As soon as all the rockets were constructed, the students went outside and began the launching procedures. Most of the rockets had successful lift-offs, but many fizzled out on Off! the launch pads. However, the success or failure was not the issue with these students. The knowledge and experience of this experi- ment would remain with them.

Yes, Steve Wilson de- cided to play on the pro circuit instead of attending college after graduation. Steve has been playing tennis for abut six years. Although he has had no formal coach, he received help from Ralph Flores, a former pro and teacher at Briarwood, and Hugh Waters, a premier pro of Richmond. He has played in tournaments from Kalamazoo, Michi- gan, to Dallas, Texas. Recently he played in the Easter Bowl in New York. Last winter he won the Mid-Atlantic Lawn Tennis Association (MALTA) Tournament and received their Sportsmanship Award. In 1979 Steve was ranked number one in Virginia in singles and in dou- bles along with his partner, Jeff Jones. Although he will play in the pros, Steve will remain an amateur in ranking. The long hours of practice, the inconveniences of travel, and the uncertainty of the life of a pro seemed not to damper his spirits as he went on to pursue his dream. - sseer?

Seniors 57 Top Note Seniors Being in the “top twenty” was a dis- tinction greatly sought after at Midlo. The competition for this honor was keen, and seniors waited anxiously their rankings in their class. This year there was a close race for first place between Todd Hylton and Andy Wakefield. With only a few tenths separating them, Todd emerged as number one. Congratulations went to all of the twenty students who had ac- complished quite an academic feat.

Not until he started playing the double bass three years ago did music begin to assume the importance that it holds for him now. He began studying the bass because he had always admired its sound and because he wanted to play in orchestras. Recently, Tim applied for the Boston University Tanglewood Institute. This conducting apprenticeship appealed to him be- Cause its objective matched his own. He wanted to go beyond just playing and learning how music is constructed. At first the decision to apply seemed whimsical, merely an impulsive, “Why not?” But as time went on, it appeared to be merely one stage in a logical progression. Tanglewood was a difficult experience to assimilate because the material was foreign to Tim, and it came at him all at once. As Tim said, “I felt exhilarated to be in a place where per- fection is considered the only standard.” He studied con- ducting with Victor Yampolsky, who is the music director of Goplerud Leads returned in the summer of ’79 for another season as co n- ducting apprentice to him. Tim’s feelings about his music and goals was summed best in his own words: “I see my role as conductor as that of a catalyst: a medium through which to make music happen. A conductor must come to a group with his conception of how the music should be played, and he must bring his players as close to his conception as he can. So often | have been in po- tentially fine groups that foundered because no one would take charge. Because a conductor needs other people to carry the Atlantic Symphony Orchestra in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Tim out his art, his must be a wise and benevolent dictatorship.” Lynn Marie Scarsborough: ‘‘Lynnie”; Pep Club 10; Spanish Club 10; Cheerleader 10—Co-captain 10; Chorus 10; Girls’ Choir 11; Mixed Choir 12; All Re- gional 11; Senior Council.

Seniors Get Ready As soon as school began, the senior council began making decisions on graduation matters. They had to decide first of all which company would handle the senior orders for caps and gowns, in- vitations, and announcements. After weeks of debating, they decided that the Herff-Jones Co. would be their official representative. After that, the other deci- sions followed easily. Navy and white were the colors selected for the caps and gowns; the announcements were chosen; the orders were placed. With these decisions behind, seniors were re- assured that graduation was truly a real- ity, after all. Left: Pam Goff gets measured for her Cap. Below: Anne Parker pays her bill.

At all of the pep rallies, the bleachers designated for seniors were filled. The seniors yelled in rhythm and stomped their own original cheer, “Seniors.” The spirit stick for the best cheer- ing section was almost always given to the seniors, proving that they showed more spirit. During homecoming week seniors had another opportunity to show their school spirit. During that week they dressed differently everyday to prove their spirit. On redneck day they wore “T” shirts, bobby socks, saddle shoes, poodle skirts, and lots of red lipstick. On the last day of the week, the seniors, along with the rest of student body, dressed as fantasy characters. The gym rocked with the voices of seniors raised in enthusiasm.

Seniors 65 = =4 = | Senior Superlatives Toward the end of school, all seniors looked forward to finding out who the senior superlatives were. The senior council decided on the various cate- gories, and seniors nominated and then voted on those who they thought should fit each category. This year there were five new categories. These were class couple, most unforgettable, most mis- chievous, most desirable, and most likely to do their own thing. During class day assembly the superlatives were an- nounced by Amy Conklin and Paul Franck.

After socializing in the lobby, everyone was ready to be seated. The senior class officers, Mrs. Willis, Mr. Poates, and other chaperones sat at the head table. In the center of the room a buffet was set up. Barbecued spareribs, chicken, roast beef, various types of vegetables, and an assortment of desserts appealed to all. After dinner, Todd Hylton enter- tained the group with the class history. Chuck Staton and Pete Conklin read the last will and testament. The class prophecy was read by Sam Giles and Bill Freimuth. After a fifteen minute intermission, the band “Avatar,” played while the seniors and their dates danced the night away. Memo- ries of this banquet will remain long after graduation.

Seniors smiled in September simply because they had fi- nally reached the top. At first semester’s end some smiled because they were ex- empted from exams. Smiles of joy in April showed that seniors heard from their colleges. Near the end of May, many smiled because they knew that graduation was near. ‘ '¥ 3 Aes By j d ; ; say Yj t 5 ‘ i eee | Fag i: Is that a meager grin from Sarah Fink?

At7:30 P.M. all seniors began lining up behind the field house with the aid of the marshals. After a band concert for guests and seniors, the seniors finally marched onto the field at 8:00. After Mark Lambert welcomed every- one, Mr. Poates honored the top ten seniors with awards. Todd Hylton, valedictorian, and Andy Wakefield, saluta- torian, gave their speeches. Then came the time that had been greatly anticipated—the granting of diplomas. After the last graduate received his diploma, the senior class cheered wildly as graduation night marked the beginning of a new life and the end of high school days.

Returning to Midlo was quite a relief for juniors because they had finally overcome being the youngest class. “Do you know where you’re going to?” became a common question. This year was an important one for all juniots because certain decisions concerning the future were considered and dis- cussed. Thoughts about SAT’s, colleges, and careers were spinning through their heads. Juniors found they needed to begin considering some career in order to select the college that best suited their needs. The “I don’t know” syndrone seemed commonplace, much to the distress of their counselor, Mrs. Jones. Juniors didn’t make any final commitments, only tentative plans to begin to find a di- rection in which to head. Even with all the academic concerns and hectic schedules, juniors still found the year to be reward- ing and satisfying. Juniors make a joint decision. 80 Juniors David Testrake and Ken Lemelin gain knowledge on SAT’s.

Perhaps the best part of returning was the relief they felt at no longer being sophomores! Having arrived at school was the first step to getting back into the swing of things. Admiring everyone’s golden tans and catching up on all the summer gos- sip were the favorite activities. However, the awe- some responsibility of the work that had to be done was soon realized. All too soon, juniors settled into a rigorous schedule of doing homework, writing term papers, listening to class lectures, and pre- paring for PSAT’s. The memories of the summer soon faded and the real world of academics closed in.

Vicky, Greg, and Jimmy have been swimming for the team for about six years and Pau! for four years. The team was originally called the Briarwood Swim Team, but in the past few years the name was changed to Richmond Metro Aquatic Club, RMAC for short.

When the team was not getting ready for an im- portant meet, there were also practices Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings from five to six- thirty. Most in-state meets were attended by RMAC, but emphasis was placed on out-of-state meets on the East Coast. Ranging from the 100 free to the 400 indi- vidual medley, the meets were usually held on both Saturday and Sunday, but some meets were also on Friday. Most of the two and three day meets had trials in the morning and finals in the evening. The swimmers from Midlothian attended a high school meet. The juniors had other teammates at Mid- lothian—sophomores Kathy Smith, Jacqueline Smith, Cheryl Poust, and Doug Carelton; and seniors Mark Lambert and Mike Kontos. Each swimmer had one or two strokes on which they concentrated. Vicky was best at butterfly and the individual medley, whereas Paul concentrated on breaststroke. Greg concentrated on breaststroke and the individual medley. Freestyle and butterfly were Jimmy’s best strokes. All of the swimmers hoped to qualify for the Na- tional Junior Olympics this year in California. College swimming was beginning to be considered by them. They all hoped to go to college on a swimming schol- arship. Vicky, Greg, and Jimmy had no specific college in mind, but they did expect to stay in state. Paul hoped to go to the University of Virginia. The 1984 Olympics were too far away to be making any pre- dictions about these swimmers. They must become highly ranked in the United States before the Olym- pics can be considered. =... Paul Lambert relaxes after a swim.

Decisions! Juniors were overwhelmed by the first visit from Herff Jones’ representatives. Seeing slides and pamphlets showed juniors the many choices of the types of rings. It was difficult to select from the many stones—smooth or cut, sig- natures or initials, emblems or no emblems, gold, white gold, or ultrium. After much debating, exam- aning seniors’ rings, trying to decipher the order forms, and changing their minds several times, each junior finally settled on the one ring which they be- lieved to be the best for them. Herff Jones soon made another trip to Midlo to take orders and measure fingers. That twenty dollar deposit seemed a lot to pay for a ring that they hadn’t seen yet. Juniors readily surrendered their money, though. Juniors’ pockets emptied futher when their rings finally arrived. The cost of the rings ranged from $60 to well over $100, depending on the selection. When the rings were finally delivered though, the lines of smiling, excited juniors showed without a doubt that it was all worth it. “Turn my ring! Turn my ring!”” could be heard ev- erywhere as juniors began asking classmates and friends to participate in a very special custom. It is believed that if a ring is turned eighty times that it will bring good luck to the wearer. After a day or two of turning hundreds of rings, finding many swollen fingers, and losing count of the turns, ju- niors finally had just one turn left for that special someone. “Did you get what you’re hoping for?” was a question needlessly asked. Even weeks after the ini- tial excitement, juniors proudly displayed their rings for all to see. All the rings were beautiful, yet each junior believed his or hers to be the BEST!

Beginning with football and field hockey practices in August and continuing all the way through to the track and baseball championships in May, juniors played an important part in Midlothian sports. This was the first year that most of the junior ath- letes could participate on a varsity level. Even though the workouts were greater for varsity sports, the ju- niors were willing to endure the pain to prove that they were as good as the older members of the team. At every athletic event, the juniors were seen giving one hundred percent. In many cases they provided that final push that put Midlothian into a winning situation. The dedication to sports shown by the junior boys and girls was a tribute to the kind of team work and sportsmanship which the juniors supported. While these athletes were giving their best, loyal junior fans cheered them on.

Being a part of a musically talented family, Marianne Miller has grown up surrounded by music. From com- posing to performing, she has discovered the pleasure music brings. Even though she played the piano and the harmon- ica, Marianne’s favorite instrument was the guitar. She took piano lessons for three years, but she did not be- come truly interested in music until she began playing the guitar two years ago. On Tuesday nights she played her guitar for the en- joyment of others at the Huguenot House, a Christian Todd Howard Gary Hubble Margaret Hudson Stacy Huggins 90 Juniors youth outreach program for the Chesterfield area. When Marianne played at the Huguenot House, she was often accompanied by another guitarist; and ev- eryone sang along. She has also performed at Genesis, a teenage disco. She performed musically in another way by singing alto in the girls chorus at school. Marianne also sang songs she wrote herself. She began by writing a poem, and then she put it to music. Recording one of her songs was a dream that may come true one day. Although music was only a hobby, it was a big part of Marianne’s life. Through her words and music, she expressed her feelings and ideas. She felt she could more easily express herself to other people her own age with her music. Music helped Marianne see where she was going. She planned to major in youth ministry in college with a minor in music. She wanted to help young people and felt that music could be one way to accomplish this end. It was her feeling that music is a universally understood way to express oneself.

The smiles that were seen and the laughter that was heard throughout the halls were sure signs of the junior classes’ free spirit. Study halls and lunch time seemed to be the favorite time to be spent in simply “goofing off.” Catching up on gossip or having a doughnut took precedence over studying during study halls. In the fall and spring, frisbee throwing became the popular sport. Perhaps the junior year seemed more enjoyable because juniors at last had lost the sophomore stigma. Or perhaps it was because they did not have as many worries as the seniors. Whatever the reason, it was a memorable year.

Chasing antasies Getting away from the student’s humdrum world was difficult considering the demands of all the school work and activities. However, most juniors were able to escape from time to time through daydreams. Whether their fantasies involved college, careers, dates, or even stardom, all were important.

The homecoming floats had a special artistic flair. At the taster’s supper pic- tures of children from other countries danced across the walls. The gym walls proudly displayed a splendid Trojan mounted on his horse. The prom would never have been a success without a proper setting. The ori- gin of these masterpieces seemed a mystery. Who was responsible for the artistry? The answer—it was simple. Keith Grim and Chris Kontos had been hard at work! Both Keith and Chris used their artistic talents when- ever it was needed at Midlo, and that was often! Dur- ing the festivities of homecoming both boys partici- pated in creating the Latin float which won first place and the junior class float, the third place winner. Chris even proceeded to help with yet a third, the senior class float. Also during Language Week Chris and Keith pulled their talents together to help decorate the cafeteria for the taster’s supper. Midlo’s gym contains an outstanding mural which was, again, the pooled efforts of our two ambitious ju- niors. The original design, created by them, was put on a slide, and a projector enlarged the creation to “wall- size” for easier working. For three months Keith and Chris slaved over their project although they admitted to extended procrastination sessions and frisbee breaks. Upon finishing this grand project, their only quarrel was said to be over colors. At first the horse was, truthfully, a horse of a different color. The amazing thing about these two artists is that neither Chris nor Keith has ever taken art lessons. Keith did, however, begin to take artistic talents seri- ously about nine years ago while Chris was still in the fingerpaint stage. Chris began concentrating on his abilities only after meeting Keith. Together they formed Midlo’s hottest creative team.

The highlight of their year’s activities, the prom, demanded much from them. As a result, juniors and seniors sailed to paradise on the M.H.S. Graduate on April 28. Para- dise definitely would describe this year’s prom. Ex- otic surroundings, delicious food served by soph- omores in sailor suits, and a great band, Crimson, all contributed to make the prom a great success. Many hard hours of work were spent by diligent juniors in preparation for the event. Fireproofing paper, drawing, painting, planning refreshments, designing memory books, and providing favors were activities endured by juniors. Without these faithful juniors there wouldn’t have been a prom. Co-chairmen, Maribeth Martin and Susan Belsha make important decisions.

The atmosphere around school was quite different because the seniors had graduated a week ——— earlier. The empty halls and senior classrooms gave the juniors a feeling of emptiness. Yet, it was also ex- citing to be at the top for a week. With all these diverse emotions, it was difficult to study. During this week the juniors tried desperately to prepare for their exams, but more time was spent daydreaming about the summer. A feeling of relief ac- companied the end of exams as the only thing anyone could think about was getting out of school for the summer. In a reflective mood, the juniors began to look back on their eleventh year in school and to consider all the activities they had planned. They hoped they had not let too many dreams just slip through their hands. However, the year was prosperous in fulfilling both academic and social dreams.

Where are you going to, do you know? Do you get what you're hoping for? When you look behind you there’s no open door. What are you hoping for, do you know?

Do you know where you're going to? Do you like the things that life is showing you? Where are you going to, do you know? Do you get what you’re hoping for? When you look behind you there’s no open door. What are you hoping for, do you know? Now looking back at all we planned, We let so many dreams just slip through our hands.

Meeting and making new friends was a vital part of the year. The mingling of students from Robious and Providence Junior High Schools, plus transfer students, created an atmosphere that promoted new friendships. Sophomores strug- gled with finding their way through the unfamiliar halls to classrooms with new teachers who lectured and piled on the homework. They also had the opportu- nity to become involved in a wide variety of activities. There were clubs to join, teams to try out for, and awards and honors to strive for. Mrs. Perry pleads with her class. Becky Foster is hard at work. Sophomores 107 Double Trouble “... Talking it over, just the two of us. Working together day to day ...” Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have an identical twin? There were four sets of identical twins in the soph- omore class. They shared both good experiences and bad experiences. They laughed together and they cried together. Not to mention being called Courtney—when your name is Susan! Although the problem of mistaken identity caused considerable confusion for their friends, the twins accepted this as a part of their every day life. The twins were alike in many ways, but they were both individuals. Each had her own ideas and had set her own goals for life. Donna and Rhonda Collins agree that two heads are better than one.

Much pep and enthusiasm go into dancing during gym class. Sophomores “Love” P.E. All sophomores were required to take the physi- cal education course at Midlothian. Students en- gaged in a variety of activities ranging from bad- minton to modern dance. During the winter months, the gym classes were limited to activities indoors. The boys, as well as the girls, participated in weight training in the auxiliary gym. All agreed that after several weeks of rigorous training, they had herculean strength and were pre- pared to take on anything or anyone. When spring arrived, the P.E. classes moved out- side. This meant running track and playing softball. Many students looked forward to an hour outside in the beautiful spring weather. Driver’s education and mental health were also a major part of the P.E. course. After completing the course in driver's education, the students were ready for behind the wheel instruction.

Many sophomore girls became interested in field hockey, basketball, track, tennis, or softball. The boys began the year with a season of J.V. football, and then went on to wrestling, track, tennis, baseball, or bas- ketball. The excitement of participating on a Midlo- thian team added enjoyment to the sophomore year.

Sophomores 113 Behind the Wheel A big part of the sophomore year was finally being able to drive. Sophomores looked forward to behind-the-wheel driving after a very long semester of drivers’ education and sitting in a classroom studying the principles of driving. Most soph- omores were scared to death to get in the car, but their fears usually subsided as they headed down Route 60. With all of the hard work put into it by teachers and coaches, behind-the-wheel was a great success again this year. Miss Bunting feels at ease. 114.

That was the one place where they were expected to congregate, and per- haps the one place where they felt secure. As the year wore on, the mood began to relax, and laugh- ter could be heard echoing from the sophomore hall. Near the end of the year, sophomores ven- tured from their surroundings and moved into the junior hall. The reputation of the sophomore hall would never be forgotten, nor would the good and bad times spent there.

Paying attention was what it was all about. Soph- omores entered Midlothian knowing that the de- mands of high school would be taxing, but little did they realize that so much of their time would be spent sitting at a desk listen—to teachers, up- perclassmen, administration, and fellow classmates. It was hard sometimes to maintain a high level of concentration and often their attention wandered. They all, however, seemed to know and understand that it was part of the requirements. By the end of the year, they had accepted and made their own adjustments to the situation. Becky Foster and Amy Dickson enjoy the relaxation of activity period. A classroom full of sophomore servers.

They had their share of intellectuals, jocks, and talented students who displayed special abili- ties and talents. However, several students excelled outside the regular school curriculum. Kathy Smith, as a member of the Richmond Metropolitan Aquatic Club, devoted many long hours practicing and training to perfect her sport, swimming. Kurt Negaard, a rising young actor and singer, per- formed nightly at either the Shenandoah Playhouse, Barksdale Theatre, or the Barn Theatre, where he entertained with a style all his own. Ballet was Bill Palsa’s special talent which he worked earnestly de- veloping with the Richmond Ballet Company. The sophomore class was proud to have such a diver- sified display of talent. It made the sophomores all the more special. Kathy Smith waits for the meet to begin. Sophomores 121 Having completed their first year at Midlothian, sophomores looked forward to becoming juniors. They had been through the process of being the “lower form of life” and looked forward to treating the next upcoming class the same. As sophomores moved up to the world of juniors, they had benefit- ed from the experiences that encompassed their sophomore year. Most were finally driving, thanks to behind-the-wheel training. Sophomores had been introduced to the world of sports and the ar- ray of clubs. Some had even developed talents in specific areas. Best of all, Caesar was dead (for good), the frog had been dissected, and soph- omore hall was only a memory—a cherished memory. Sophomores finally take the steps toward being a junior.

He ran for chaplain of SCA; and although he was not elected, his good motives will probably make him a strong candidate next year. Craig was active not only at school, but also in his church. His biggest project at his church was trying to make the Youth Min- istry Program more meaningful. Perhaps Craig’s greatest achievement was making the commu- nity aware of the involvement that was needed to support the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign. With sophomores like Craig, the members of the class of 1981 can be proud. % Craig Headley calls attention to the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign.

They were Ann Street, running for vice-president; Jaqueline Lewis, Amy Dickson and Rob Morgan running for secre- tary; and Mike Murray and Craig Headly, running for chaplain. During their one week of campaign- ing, all learned about the art of making signs and writing Campaign speeches. Most lugged around a stack of cardboard, and sticky fingers resulted from the enormous amount of tape used to put up the signs. On March 30th, the juniors and sophomores filed into the gymnasium and listened to the candidates give their speeches. All seven sophomores, filled with fear, delivered their speeches with quavering voices. Although no sophomores were elected, most will probably return next year to have their name placed on the ballot once again. ; Robbie Buell delivers his speech. 126 Sophomores i eee The other carididates listen while Robert Morgan tries to win the crowd.

However, class- work didn’t necessarily have to be boring and hard. Several of the classes were even almost interesting. Students in a variety of subjects found diversified activities rather enjoyable. In biology labs, soph- omores dissected frogs with interest and disdain. Each student got his turn at poking and jabbing the willing amphibians. In Mrs. Miles’ English classes the ides of March called for a dramatic inter- pretation of Julius Caesar’s assassination. Home economics classes entertained themselves by throwing parties complete with food and guests. All these activities helped to prove to soph- omores that there was more to classwork than lec- tures and assignments. This made the year more bearable for all.

Songs In The Key Of Life—a note about Activities No two people are the same; each person is unique with his or her own interests. Because there are so many kinds of people, there must be a variety of activities to match their interests. Midlothian has always had a large list of activities in answer to this need. Variety was increased with the addition of Tri-Hi-Y, V.I.C.A., and the Master’s Club (Frisbee). Throughout the year most of the clubs partici- pated in competition of some sort. Several clubs became involved in competition on a state level. Among these were F.B.L.A., Chorus, Honor Guard Drill Team, and Debate Team. Other clubs were involved in different activi- ties. The language clubs held their annual Lan- guage Week. In the spring, the language clubs traveled to foreign countries. The band held the All Music Festival in the spring and took a trip to Bermuda. Participation in the annual Powder Puff game was one of the main activities of the Pep Club. After Christmas the Pep Club also sponsored a sock-hop following a basketball game. These kinds of activities provided channels for varying interests. Each student was able to select an activity or club particularly suited to him. Brenda Chewning listens while David McGunnis speaks.

Any student who joins the club must be enrolled in the ICT program. This year the club took on an almost im- possible job of cleaning up the school grounds. They built a trash receptacle for the front of the school. A campaign was started at the beginning of the year to encourage those students eighteen years of age to vote. The club made favors for the members of a local retirement home and treated two of the residents to a Christmas lunch at the Picadilly Cafe. The club held an employer employee banquet in which each member invited his employer. In late spring the members of the club took on the Masters Club ina Club members relax at the meeting. game of frisbee football. Brenda Chewning’s mind wanders to other things.

Midlothian is very lucky to have such fine quality in the depth of their debate team. Each year members of the debate team capture many top places on the district and regional lev- els. This year at Longwood Steve Ip- sen and Kevin Hopkins placed fourth as an affirmative team and then joined with teammates, David Price and Mike Spencer, to place third as a four man team. Another tournament, held at the University of Richmond, found David Price and Mike Spencer placing second and fifth, respectively, in the negative speaker contest. Price and Spencer combined efforts to place fourth as a negative team. Patty Agliano did very well this year.

Plenty of hard work and dedication was needed to put on these plays. The actors and stage crew spent much of their time rehearsing for the plays and construct- ing the sets.

During Language Week the clubs were busy preparing for the taster’s supper, sponsoring speakers for the week, and raising money for two foreign Language Scholarships. These scholar- ships, presented at the close of Language Week, were given to Pam Eubank and Lisa Selph. Along with these other activities, the SHF held two annual tappings, one in the spring and one in the fall. They also participated in language festivals at Byrd High School.

A visit to Busch Gardens in the spring provided another opportu- nity to sample German food.

The Spanish Club provided an assortment of activities for their members. They worked hard for the benefit of others, but they enjoyed social activities as well. One of the most demanding projects was the homecoming float. All of the hard work and long hours paid off by winning second place in the float competition. At Christ- mas they combined good deeds and good times by sponsoring a Spanish-speaking family, Christ- mas caroling at the Riverside Elementary School, and then treating themselves to a holiday banquet. In the spring a council dinner was held. Finally, a picnic brought all activities of the club to an end for the year. Debi Daniels has trouble keeping on her hat.

The many hours of planning paid off in the success of the parade and dance that were enjoyed by both the faculty and students. For the annual Christmas project, each class sponsored a family. SCA represen- tatives encouraged their homerooms to bring gifts, clothes, food, and money to help spread the Christmas spirit to the community. With the advice of Mrs. Bai- ley, the SCA sponsor who kept things running smoothly, the families were in- sured a very enjoyable Christmas. With spring came the SCA fund-rais- ing drive and the election and installa- tion of new SCA officers. It was a suc- cessful year for the SCA whose efforts were greatly appreciated by the school and the community. ‘4 The business of the SCA seems somber to Stephanie Caroline Barden reads the minutes of last month’s meeting as Todd Hylton listens.

The sound of voices raised in song could be heard every day when one walked by the chorus room. All four choirs worked hard to blend to- gether in harmony. In October, of the school year, all four choirs participated in a workshop concert. The Mixed Choir sang for the Bon Air Junior Women’s Club Christmas party. All groups sang in the Christmas and Spring Concerts. Twenty-three students participated in the Re- gional Chorus, and Steve Guarino, Lori Etkin, and Greg Staton went on to participate in the All State Chorus. All four choirs sang in the Vocal Spring Festival. Three of the groups received su- perior marks, and one received an excellent rat- ing. Some chorus students performed for the Bon Air Historical Society’s Victorian Era Day. All groups completed the year with their concert at Baccalaureate.

Songs In The Key Of Life—a note about As high school began, we anticipated an in- crease in the difficulty of our schoolwork, but we also expected to widen the range of our social life to encompass new activities and new friends. Our parents and teachers told us that our high school years would be the best years of our lives. A variety of events were anticipated by the student body. When school first opened in the fall, it seemed that months would have to go by before the excitement of Homecoming could be enjoyed. Time went by very quickly though, and there were always last minute rushed prepara- tion, for floats, the dance, and the Princess Talent Show. After Homecoming Week, it was work as usual; but girls began to hope for another dance while many guys shrank at the thought of one. This year in the middle of the basketball season, the Pep Club sponsored a sock-hop after one of the basketball games. The dance was enjoyed by all who came to “shake their booties” and “raise the roof.” Anticipation did not end there, though; stu- dents had the annual Talent Show and the Ju- nior-Senior Prom to look forward to and to worry about. Those were the happy times, and memories of those events will stay with students for years to come. tone ape ‘Laura Fields likes to be the center of attention. 168 Student Life All Midlothian students agree that 1:50 p.m. is their favorite time of the day. ...

Students and teachers found an outlet for their frustrations in the entire week of dressing up and act- ing crazy. The climax of home- coming week was the Friday after- noon pep rally where the seniors let their spirit show. The band played with more enthusiasm than ever before and had everyone dancing and yelling throughout the pep rally. Cheerleaders came through again with original skits, games and some rowdy cheers for the football team. Homecoming was certainly something that will give the sophomores a reason to remember their first one and will give the seniors a reason to re- David Smith and Steve Larus have fun, regardless of what others think about their relationship.

The battle in this game was between the varsity and junior varsity cheerleaders against the girls in the pep club. Even though the pep club was heard running around the halls screaming that they were superior prior to the game, the cheerleaders were the ones who dominated the game. The final score was cheerleaders 12 and pep club 6. As for sideline at- tractions, Dallas may have their cheerleaders; but at the powder uff game Midlothian’s cheer- eaders were something special, and many people claimed to watch the “fellows” more than the game. 12 Ogee Ls Po ee Pom Pons march for an egg?

The pow- der puff football game and the pep rally were a great success, but the anticipation that goes along with Homecoming night surpassed that of the previous week. Th e questions that stood out in everyone’s mind were, “Who would win the football game,” and “Who would be chosen as the 1978 Homecoming Queen?” The first question was answered by the Midlothian Football Team. They managed to keep the Prince George Royals out of the end zone and beat them 23-0. The answer to the second question was answered by Cindy Lazard. Cindy was chosen Most Talented as well as our Homecoming Queen of 1978. The pregame parade featured floats depicting the theme of Homecoming 1978, a Journey Through Dreamland. The Latin Club, Spanish Club, and the Junior Class floats were awarded 1st, 2nd and 3rd place respectively.

The actual elections took place all day during the English classes. All of the votes were tabu- lated by the end of the day, and the results were Miles Whitten, Presi- dent; Paul Humphreys, Vice-President; Asha Narasimhan, Secreta ry; Elisa Stonko, Chaplain; and Pam Eubank, Treasurer. Aside from choosing new officers for next year, the election process taught the student body the importance of registering, listening, and voting.

Student Life 179 Your Own Kind Of Music Music is a large part of most high school students’ lives whether they realize it or not. In school, chorus, band, and or- chestra classes offered the Midlothian student outlets for their musical interests. A music theory course was offered for those who may want to pursue music as a Career. Outside of school, music was available in many forms, too. Radio stations, music stores, and concerts offered students music of all kinds. Portable radios were a favorite source of music, and students tried at various times to talk teachers into allowing the radio music in their classes. Students often spent afternoons and weekends browsing through tapes and albums at record shops. The concerts which played the Richmond area were a source of great fun for the many students who went to the coliseum to see their favorite performers. Among those who visited Richmond were Billy Joel, Eric Clapton, and Kenny Loggins. From Classical to rock, songs seemed to bring back memo- ries. Music heard during the students’ high school years will stay with them for a long time to come and will remind them of the various emotions they felt during their stay at Midlo- thian High School.

Each student is an individ- ual and each “does his own thing.” Activities vary from sports, such as throwing frisbees, to studying in the halls or just sitting outside. In the spring, the fever has hit and no one can resist going outside at every possible time. All things add up to having a good time and free time is defi- nitely a big part of fun. Billy Hyler and Joe Kelly get a little strange. Parke Richeson and Bonne Szeker catch rays while studying at lunch.

Student Life 183 Weekends A great deal of a Midlothian High School student’s time was spent thinking about getting out of school. We were all guilty of daydreaming about the summer, spring break, or just the 1:50 dismissal. The anticipation of going to the beach or a party was distracting to even the most diligent student. Also extra curricular activities gave students a chance to escape from the drudgery of classes. However, nothing cured a case of the doldrums like the weekend. But like all good things, the weekend came to an end, and the anticipation of the next weekend started all over again on those slow dreary Mondays. Beth Baron gives a good “Mr. Bill’ imitation.

Students and a few brave fac- ga i ‘ ulty members volunteered to ride the friendly beasts. What they found out while attempting to play basketball was that the donkeys were not as willing to be friendly or as willing to play. Most of the action came from the participants being thrown on the floor rather than shooting at the hoop. For all of the rough-housing, a good time was had by all, and the laughs far outnumbered the bruises. To add insult to this year, the stu- dents won by two points. This seemed the easiest way to ride. Mark Holland made peace with his donkey. The faculty found coaxing helps. Peggy Blount, it isn’t done this way!

Student Life 187 Music Festival—Bermuda Every three years, the bands from high schools all over the country take a trip to a music festival. The trips are staggered so there are rarely more than two or three schools together at one time. This year the festival was held in the island of Ber- muda. Activities varied among the students and band director Mr. Hale. Some came back with “wounds” from riding mopeds. Others were painfully burned from lying in the trop- - ical sun. Mr. Hale “suggested” they listen to a steel band con- cert which didn’t go over too well but was attended and en- joyed. A dance was held on the night of the band’s arrival, but most of the free time was spent lying on the beach and swimming. Someone forgot to take off their socks before going to the beach. Beth Vaden is caught unaware by the camera. 188 Student Life Upon arrival, a mass state of confusion exists. Waiting around seemed to be part of the program. Student Life 189 Strange Occurrences at Midlothian This year at Midlothian began like ev- ery other year with a few minor exceptions. The students let some of their in- Lb habitions run wild after they had been in school for a few months. Classes be- come a little more relaxed, and teachers allowed the students personalities to develop. : Perhaps the strangest happening at Midlothian this year was the truck that attempted to cruise through the front hall. Luckily, there was only minor dam- age and no injuries. As spring approaches, the occurences are likely to get stranger and stranger, but isn’t that why we like school?

On the night of the prom, April 28, seniors and juniors and their dates arrived at Midlo- thian to find the gym transformed into a cruise ship, complete “Sailing To Paradise” with portholes, travel brochures, palm trees, and sophomore servers dressed as Sailors.

Songs In The Key Of Life—a note about 202 Sports Midlothian is known not only for its academic standards but also for its achievements in sports. Those students who were involved in sports soon became aware of the fact that each one of them had to make his own individual contribu- tion to the team. They realized that each one of them had a certain role to play in order for their season to be a success. The students involved in sports became cham- pions through their honest efforts, their sports- manship, their patience, and their respect for not only their own teammates but their opponents as well. Each student found that the same re- sponsibility and discipline that they used in their schoolwork could also be beneficial on the ath- letic field. By the end of the season, the athletes had de- cided that if one accomplished these things, he was a champion. The students had witnessed victory—but also defeat. They had felt happiness as well as despair. However, all these experi- ences had brought them closer together as a team and had taught them an invaluable lesson that all champions must learn.

The 1978 season started off at home with Midlo playing host to Tucker. The game was tied until Tucker kicked a field goal in the fourth quarter to defeat the Trojans 10-7. The next week the Tro- jans traveled to Thomas Dale where they had trouble controlling the Knight’s de- fense. The Knights ended up on top, 20- 12. Three weeks into the season, the team was ready for a victory. They faced Tabb and came from behind in the fourth quarter 14-15 to stomp Tabb 28- 15. The Trojans went to Hopewell to de- feat the Blue Devils, 28-14. The team then won their next two games against Colonial Heights and Meadowbrook 41- 21 and 27-7 respectively. Midlothian really put up a fight the following week in Petersburg. The Trojans were leading 19-12 early in the fourth quarter. How- ever, the Wave fired out in front to win 31-19. Manchester defeated Midlothian 28-14 the next week. After two disap- pointing losses the Trojans made a tre- mendous comeback to demolish Prince George at Homecoming, 23-0. Midlo- thian was upset in the final game of the season when Dinwiddie slipped by the Trojans 16-14 in the last 22 seconds of the game. This brought the 1978 season to a close with a record of 5-5.

Teamwork, like always, plays a large part in the success of a team. The Tro- jans displayed teamwork throughout the season. When the blocking was off, the runners seemed to put forth extra effort; when the offense was sluggish, the de- fense really dug in. Someone was always there to pick up the slack. This com- bined effort resulted in a number of Tro- jan players receiving post season recog- nition. Chris Hultquist was named on the all-district team as well as the second team all-metro. Steve Larus and Pat Manuel made the all district team and honorable mention on the. all-metro team. Scott Wauters was named to the all-metro second team.

Girls’ Basketball 213 Field Hockey Strives for Their Goal This year proved to be a very suc- cessful season for the girls’ field hockey team, which was coached by Marjorie Brooks. The team began their season with a decisive victory over the Meadowbrook Monarchs, 4- 1. With an outstanding record of eight wins, three ties, and only one loss, the team earned its way to the Central District tournaments. Again they tri- umphantly defeated the Colonials of Colonial Heights (2-1) and the Blue Devils of Hopewell (2-0). Hard work, great dedication, and team effort proved invaluable to becoming the number one team in the district. With high hopes and great expectations the Lady Trojans advanced to the semi-fi- nals of the regional tournament. They fought hard against their tough oppo- nents, Hugenot, but unfortunately the Falcons emerged victorious.

The winter track team traveled many miles to each meet, and it was usually well worth the trip. They finished fifth in the region and thirteenth in the state. Steve Guarino, shot putter and discus thrower, was one of the Tro- jans to qualify for the state meet, along with Bill Cosby, Cory Bunting, Jeff Kelly, and Steve Kellam. For the first time, Midlo ... had a girls win- ter track team. The girls practiced rigorously to prepare themselves for the upcoming meets. They did very well in the meets in which they participated at W M, East Caro- line, the Naval Academy and in Lynchburg. Standouts on this team were Karen Heine and Jan Jackson.

The team thrived on hard work, long, rigorous practices, true dedication and the will to win, which could be detected on each player’s face as they battled against their op- ponents. Led by fearless Coach OIl- son, the mighty Trojans di splayed some fancy ball handling and tricky maneuvers in an effort to outwit their rival.

Todd Rugar was the leading high scorer, scoring as many as thirty points in some games. David Estridge was the second leading high scorer on the team. Todd also achieved a place on the all-metro third team. Bruce Morgan and David Estridge led the team in rebounds.

The Trojan team commenced the annual Christmas Tournament against the Warriors of Matoaca. Excitement and enthusiasm were abound as the mighty Trojans fought hard to defeat the Warriors 65-67 in a close rivalry. The next night they met the Knights of Thomas Dale. Again they played well and gave their opponents a_ very tough fight to the end. Unfortunately, the Knights were victorious but only by a small margin of three points, 57- 54.

The Trojans anticipated a tough fight, but hopes were high, and the will to win was strong. The Trojans emerged vic- toriously, defeating the Knights of Thomas Dale 68-72. Their next oppo- nent was the Blue Devil team of Hopewell. The first half of the game belonged to the Trojans who domi- nated the offense. The team went into the locker room at half-time with a four point lead. The Trojans tried to work offensively during the second half to outscore the Blue Devils. How- ever, the tension became too great, and the Tro jans began missing their shots and got into foul trouble. Con- sequently, Hopewell emerged victorious. Varsity Basketball 225 J.V. Trojans Battle for Victory The Junior Varsity Trojans fought hard to close their season with a win- ning record of ten wins and eight losses. Many of their games were close and undecided until the closing minutes of the fourth quarter. The fighting Trojans usually came out vic- toriously as a result of their fantastic team work. Mark Fink was one of the team’s high scorers and rebounders. Bruce Franck also had terrific scoring and re- bounding ability, often playing as a partner to Mark Fink. Larry Minnick contributed his outstanding foul shooting ability. Tommy Dunnington and Steve Bodtke contributed their superb skill to the Trojan offense. Ed Fowler held his team together on the court.

Placing first in the hurdles was Scott Wauters, and Steve Kellam took second in the long jump. Philip Stagg finished first in the pole vault with an outstanding vault of 12 feet, 6 inches. In the half mile run Dean Lakey placed first; and in the mile relay Dannie Crooks, Chris Owens, Joe Kelly, and Dean Lakey took second place. This year the Trojans did very well in all their meets, especially the State meet, in which we were the second highest scoring team from central re- gion. They also obtained the highest point total for MHS ever in a State meet.

Girls’ Gymnastics 241 Varsity Spirit 1 At cheering camp where they were preparing for the 1978-79 season, the Varsity Cheerleaders won the dis- tinction of being the most spirited squad. Their goal for the year was to keep up this enthusiasm. They did this by planning pep rallies which would get Midlo students fired up. At home- coming they worked hard to make it a big success by encouraging the stu- dent body’s participation during the week. Other jobs such as selling ads for the football program, planning treats for the teams, and_ painting signs kept the cheerleaders very busy. At years’ end, however, the memories of the hard work faded, and only the good times were remembered.

Whether in the classroom or on the field, the scholar and the athlete gain a sense of responsibility and dis- cipline with each assignment, with each game. They learn that a real champion utilizes his individual effort and team work to have success. The coach and the teacher strive to excel in organizing groups with com- mon goals toward which to work. The coach leads his team to victory, while a teacher directs his students to achieve by learning. So, motivated and guided we all strive for excellence. We are all cham- pions in our own way. Trina Ragland shouts for victory. Mary Beth Mayo performs her balancing act. 244 Candids Kelli Gwinner is on the ball! Mark Barger runs through trees instead of around them.

Songs In The Key Of Life—a note about The 1979 TROJAN benefitted from community support. Each year community businesses and patrons buy advertisements in the TROJAN. The ads that were sold this year provided needed fi- nancial assistance for the yearbook publication. The advertisements benefit not only the year- book, but the community as well. Many people including parents read the TROJAN yearbook and thus see the ads. Business increased for the community because in reading the ads, parents learned of new places to buy the things they needed. Also, the students that read these ads will be future patrons helping community businesses. Rising students enjoy themselves at the yearbook signing party. 246 Advertisements Four TROJAN staff members patronize the Midlo- thian Pharmacy. vertisements 4 Dale Johnson and Susan Schneider begin the new year remembering the past with their A masterpiece pizza is made by an employee at Rosa’s new yearbooks.

Songs In The Key Of Life—a note As summer approached, the students reflected upon all that had happened during the 1978-1979 school year. Hours were spent reliving those cherished memories, memories that included teachers, friends, special occasions, and small everyday occurrences. Finally, what at one time seemed so far in the future had become a reality. Summer came and the year 1978-1979 was a part of the past.

But look around, Leaves are brown, And the sky is a hazy shade of winter. Hang on to your hopes my friend. That’s any easy thing to say But if your hopes should pass away Simply pretend that you can build them again... Look around, The grass is high The fields are ripe: It’s the spring time of my life Seasons change with the scenery; Weaving time in a tapestry. Won't you stop and remember me? 264 Closing —Paul Simon The “Bird of Paradise” lights on Glenn Groat’s head. a“ e Sm scaneaiiisiiimeeeam The school year’s end brought a relief from all the pressures of school work and a change of pace for everyone. As the students turned to- ward the summer, they reflected upon the 1978- 1979 year at Midlothian. They happily remem- bered the special friends and events that were a part of their year. The past school year was high- lighted with the “Snow of ’79” which lasted two weeks. This unexpected vacation moved the closing day to a later date. The snow put extra pressure on both the students and teachers, but later the academic struggles seemed insignificant as students looked forward to travel, jobs, col- leges, or summer fun. For many who were grad- uating or transferring to a new high school, M.H.S. days would become only a memory. As the doors closed for the summer, the students had mixed emotions about ending another year at Midlothian High School. Kathy and Robin Stanley mirror each other on hat day.

We had out own section as well as the job of editing; working together on both was a learning experience that will benefit us in later dealings with other people. We have en- joyed the opportunity to take on such a great responsibility and our sense of accomplishment has made all our efforts Doda Qohncon Dale Johnson, June Hastings and Mrs. Miles take a break. Acknowledgements We would like to express our appreciation to the 1979 Tro- jan staff for the time and work spent on creating this year- book. The input of the individual members was an invaluable help throughout the year. Mrs. Phyllis Miles’ wise counseling and unrelenting hard work kept everything running smoothly even during deadline pressures. This year with the help of our photographer coordinator the photographers supplied everyone with more than enough pic- tures of the latest events. Our Herff Jones representatives, Charlie Whitley and Mike Smith provided needed advice throughout the year. We would also like to thank Jess Pinell of Delmar Studios for his high quality photos of the seniors, juniors, sophomores, and homecoming. Mr. Poates’ constant support even during difficult times has been greatly appreciated. This yearbook would also not have been possible without the understanding of the teachers who had to put up with many interruptions and absences. The monetary assistance from patrons and advertisers helped us to afford the growing cost of publication. Our greatest appreciation, however, goes to the student body who with their support and participation in the school activities helped to make the Trojan what it is.
