1980 Trojan Volume 24 Midlothian High School Midlothian, Virginia Hast ila: M01097b520 2. Times of Your Life The Times of Your Life! The times of your life are different for every person, but the times of your life here at Midlot- hian could be shared by each and every one of us. When someone thinks of the “times of your life”, he thinks of all the fun times he has had throughout his life. When we think of the times of our life at Midlo, we think of dances, clubs, sports, and just plain hav- ing fun. This year, 1980, has much to offer us eit can offer us a new decade, new friendships, and of course, new pathways for education. Midlothian plays an important role in the times of our life. It gave us a place for learning, social- izing, and competing against one another in sports. In fact, Midlothian was an important part of our life for the years we spent here. As our path- ways change and our ideas changed, we would never forget all the times we had at Midlothian. It can’t be that bad Chris Esposito! Clockwise from Top Left: DEVO dominates! It’s the only place I could find to study. Cathy Gilboy, Benjie Rob- erts, and Joan Dolezal find lunch a great time to socialize and study. Mrs. Beckner, another Kojak?

The spectrum of activities was wide enough in scope and offerings to catch the interest of any of Midlot- hian’s students. Whether the interest was public speaking, foreign cultures, or drama — Midlo had it all! It takes hard work to be an usherette for a play. A Focus on the Times of Your Life During... That's some studying you're doing, Robin and Penny! I wonder if she can tell how nervous I am? Some people actually study.

Intra-school competition, held early in January, determined who would rep- resent Midlothian in the nine categories involved. At the first level of competition, Mid- lothian swept the Central District AAA Forensic Meet, winning first place in seven out of nine categories. At the next level, the Central Region AAA Forensic Meet, Midlothian again proved successful. Doug Mumaw and John Fechino placed first, Kevin Hall and Elisa Stonko won second place honors, and Sue Jaeger, Paul Hum- phreys, and Kendall Houghton won third place awards. The first and second place winners from regional competition — Doug Mumaw, Kevin Hall, John Fechino, and Elisa Stonko — then advanced to the final stage of competition — the state forensic meet, held at the University of Virginia on March 22nd. Competing against Virginia’s best, the team only had one winner — Elisa Stonko, who won second place in her category. The team enthusiastically and capa- bly carried the Trojan reputation of cre- ative prowess to each level of competi- tion. Coached by Mrs. Katharine Baugher and Manchester teacher Angie Pickels, the team displayed creativity, ability, and dedication.

Paul Humphreys thinks fast on his feet. Academics The mime using his body as his tool, his imagination as his motivating force and his talent as his fuel, creates a whole world of characters and scenes on a bare stage. He can portray a man catching a butterfly if he chooses, or he can even portray man’s inhumanity to his fellow man. He can make observations of human behavior, or he can advocate social change: what- ever he wishes can be commu- nicated. Mime is concerned with physical characterization, clarity of gestures and expres- sion, and convincing, physical portrayal. Under the virtuoso direction of Mrs. Baugher, Midlothian’s mime troupe eloquently and artistically performed several times this year. Those students who viewed the extraordinary performances walked away with a sense of awe and a deeper understanding of the simple beauty of life. Sue Jaeger is comforted by her troupe members. Beth Kennedy displays her creativity. 10 Academics Technical Center With all of the decisions, applica- tions, and choices to be handled in high ; school, many students found them- Data Processing selves in a predicament: should I attend Heating Air college now, or just jump right into the Conditioning technical trade in which I am inter- Electricity ested?

Academics 11 12 A household with twelve members was a rather com- mon occurrence in the United States during the 1920’s. Yet the 1926, Montclair, New Jer- sey household of the Gilbreths was far from normal, as the drama department’s fall pro- duction “Cheaper by the Dozen” proved. Based on true-life experi- ences of the bustling Gilbreth family, the show kept audi- ences reeling with laughter at the depiction of humorous sit- uations with which many peo- ple could readily identify. Mr. Gilbreth (Doug Mumaw), an_e efficiency expert, was forced to do some Mr. Gilbreth, Frank (partially hidden), Bill, Dan, Anne, Ernestine, Fred, Lillian, Jackie, and Martha. Academics Cheaper by the Dozen quick soul-searching in the play when his children began to grow up faster than he had expected. The typical adoles- cent rebellion, and the ada- mant parental stubbornness, were forces to which any audience member could rel- ate. The show, with characters ranging from a shrewish housemaid to an overly enthu- siastic male cheerleader, entertained audiences from November 14th through the 17th. The easy rhythm and understandable dialogue made it a thoroughly enjoya- ble production.

From his own time until the present, Shakespeare’s plays have captured the imaginations of the aristocrat and the laborer, the scholar and the uneducated. When one speaks of ‘‘the Bard,’ there never is any doubt about who is meant: it is Shakespeare, whom Wil- liam Carlos Williams once called ‘“‘th e greatest university of all.” The winter drama produc- tion, Shakespeare’s “Taming of the Shrew,”’ proved to be a romantically funny play that TWO CONFLICTING VIEWS OF LOVE — violence (above), and charm (right). Taming of the Shrew delighted audiences with its occasional violence’ and tongue-in-cheek humor. The Drama Department undertook a massive ‘‘Shake- speare Is Not Boring!” publicity campaign that included flyers, posters, buttons, and Eliza- bethan workshops for students. The purpose of this publicity blitz: to destroy the age-old myth that Shakespeare was an ancient playwright who used archaic, unintelligible English language. The publicity cam- paign, and the show itself, proved to be highly successful. PLAYERS Baptistia®. 2. eee Kevin Hall Lucentio.aa. Gh. ae eee Jack Spencer Petruchio.

This story of an orphan who is reared in a workhouse, runs away to Lon- don, falls into the midst of thieves, and finally escapes, is a story of social protest, a moral- ity tale, and a detective story. “Oliver!” presents some of the most sinister characters in all of Dickens’ works: the master thief Fagin; the skilled Artful Dodger; the murderer Bill Sykes. Only Dickens could mix terror with comedy, pity with piety, in one unified work. Only Dickens could give us _night- mare and daydream together as one small boy searches for love.

This year the various Lan- guage Week festivities were held over a period of an entire month, due to the unusually large number of interested students. The activities ranged from an exchange student panel discussion with students from Finland, Colombia, Argentina, West Germany, England, id Mexico, to the seventh annual Taster’s Supper, featuring international cuisine, to the traditional Olympic Games, pitting language against lan- Language Week guage, with Latin students overwhelm- ingly victorious. Finally, the announcement that jun- ior Heidi Seaberg was the winner of the annual scholarship that allows one stu- dent to spend a summer of study abroad brought the activities to an end. The educational atmosphere preva- lent during Language Week provided Midlothian students with an opportu- nity to take a closer look at countries outside of the borders of the United States. Once again, Trojans flocked to the festivities, supporting their lan- guage department with enthusiastic interest. Above: Spanish student go for it!

What was President Franklin Pierce’s Vice President’s name? Seem impossible? You bet. But questions exactly like this were asked of the high school teams involved in the Battle of the Brains contest. Early in the school year, Mr. Wildasin, the sponsor of Mid- lothian’s Battle of the Brains team, conducted preliminary competition to determine who the four team members would be. Bill Cosby, David Depp, Karen Park, and James Taylor emerged as Midlothian’s repre- sentatives. The Trojan team competed against schools from nearby counties and the city of Rich- mond. In this game of quick recall, the team to first respond when a question was asked had the opportunity to answer the question correctly. These ques- tions were then followed by bonus questions. All competi- tion was televised live from the studios of WCVE-23. The competition, when com- pleted, proved that Midlothian was one of the top-ranking schools in the area. The per- formance of our dedicated team reflected the high aca- demic caliber of our school. By the way, Franklin Pierce’s sear penton someone Vice President was William King, of course.

This les- son was brought home to any- one attending the 1980 Chester- field County High Schools’ Art Show, held at the nearby Monocan High School. The attractive displays of paintings, drawings, and sculpture, and the incredible vivacity of the choral groups, bands, and orchestras, all combined to form a deeply enriching experi- ence in the arts. The art show served to remind us that art has a much higher function than just to make us feel, appreciate, and enjoy natural objects for their artistic value.

CHESTERFIELD COUNTY LIBRARY VIRGINIA Academics Did you ever imagine all of those teachers who seem to be interested in nothing but antecedents, Einstein's Theory of Rela- tivity, and y=mx + Db as people who were actually high school students at one time? Yes, they were kids once too! Maybe that’s why they spent time after school when they were tired, helping us with our problems, and encouraging us to develop confidence in ourselves and our dreams. Who knows why, but thank goodness they did! They were a big part of the times of our lives at Mid- lothian. All right fellows. A Focus on the Times of Your Life During...

Faculty 23 24 Faculty Did you know how much work it took to run a high school like Midlothian? Well, there are students to be accounted for, policies to be interpreted, assigned, and origi- nated, plus other countless duties! You might think that is enough to do, but not for our administration. At football games, basketball games, plays — no matter what the activity — they were always there. We were sorry to lose Mr. Allen Rowlett in October because of his decision to retire. We were fortunate, how- ever, to have been able to have Mr. Edward Witthoefft replace him as vice-principal. He proved to be a tremendous asset to Mr. Poates and Mr. Car- ter, who “had their hands full” without Mr. Rowlett. They were all fantastic, helping us through the times of our lives. Helping Us Through the Times of Our Lives! Mr. Francis Poates Mr. Thornton Carter Mr. Edward Witthoefft z J a SE e A last chat. Well, it’s my party, so why not enjoy it! I can't believe it! Gifts reflecting the times. A Last Look In October, it was official that Mr. Allen Rowlett would be retiring after eleven years of service at Midlothian. It was a great loss to Midlothian, but it pro- vided a chance for Mr. Row- lett to finally have an oppor- tunity to relax. After all, who can relax around more than a thousand teenagers. On his last day he was greeted to a surprise, good- bye party. It was a greatly moving experience for Mr. and Mrs. Rowlett, teachers and students. He was pre- sented with presents from everyone. There were gifts reflecting his years in the Air Force, his years at Midlot- hian, and the times ahead. He will never forget the times at Midlothian. There- fore, we are proud to dedi- cate this page of the 1980 Trojan to Mr. Allen Rowlett, who dedicated much of his time to all of us here at Mid- lothian. Faculty 25 Getting Us Through the Times We needed someone to help us get through the times of our life. The people that did that were our guidance counselors. They were always there to help us make countless decisions and also to guide us through other fre- quent problems. They were regularly asked questions about college, SAT’s, and classes that should be taken. They had to have had an abundance of patience to talk to everyone who needed help. Neverthe- less, they got us through those times with no major upsets. We would never have made it through all our problems without them to guide us.

It never failed that every time they started something, they were always interrupted by someone. It was a good thing they were there though, for without them most of us — teachers and students alike — could not have survived!

History Thornton Carter — Vice- Principal 28 Faculty Computer Bum! “Hi, Everyone!” That is a sample of a compute program that could be taught in the computer math class. Mrs. Teresa Ellis taught this course in the BASIC language for all stu- dents who were interested in com- puter. Mrs. Ellis has been interested in computers ever since she was in college at Longwood. While she was attending Longwood College math majors were asked to attend a course in FORTRAN — another of the many computer languages. The course, which was taught at neighboring Hampden-Sidney College, was the first computer course offered there at that time. After Longwood College, Mrs. Ellis attended Virginia Polytech- nic Institute and State University, where her interest in computers continued to grow. After she graduated from VPI and SU she began teaching math at Robious Middle School. While she was at Robi- ous her interest in computers was aroused once again by Mr. Gilpen Brown, who now works at the Math and Science Center. He acquainted her with the BASIC Language. After her exposure to the BASIC Lan- guage on the Computer termi- nal at Robious and in courses at the Math and Science Center, she decided to teach an explor- atory course in BASIC for sev- enth graders. When she began teaching at Midlothian, she wanted to teach a computer course here also. In 1978 a com- puter math class was begun with thirteen students. In 1979 the number grew to thirty-six students and next year the pro- jected enrollment of the class is forty students. Mrs. Ellis enjoys teaching, but she especially enjoys teach- ing this class, because it is a “different” class. She teaches it for all students, no matter what math level they are on. She also tries to keep the class interest- ing by exposing the students to all aspects of computers through speakers, field trips, and of course, first-hand expe- rience. She is extremely contented that more and more students are becoming interested in computers. Computers play an important role in our lives, and in more colleges and universi- ties than not, courses in com- puter are becoming mandatory. It is something everyone can enjoy, in fact, through her enthusiasm, her entire family has become interested in com- puters. Arcelle Collier — Accounting Joan Cousins — Government; U.S. and Va.

You can be sure Mr. Wildesin does. On that date he first arrived at Midlothian to replace retired social studies teacher, Mrs. Wolfe, who resigned to devote full energies to her antique shop. Mr. Wildesin, having a pro- found fascination with Ameri- can history, attended William and Mary from 1968 until 1972. From 1972 to 1973, he did his graduate history work at the University of Virginia. In 1973, Mr. Wildesin began teaching in Danville, Va., instructing students from grades seven through twelve in government, world history, social studies, and geography. In 1974, he moved to the Fair- fax-Alexandria area of North- ern Virginia, where he taught seventh grade social studies. Here Come the Judge! Mr. Wildesin attended the Marshall-Wythe law school at William and Mary from 1975 through 1978. In October of 1979 he passed his Virginia bar exam. Congratulations! The 1979-1980 school year was Mr. Wildesin’s last year at Midlothian. He, in his own words was “plunging into the ranks of the unemployed.” He expects to become involved in state government here in Rich- mond. Wildesin is an avid reader of political commentary and enjoys antiques, traveling, and collecting Virginia books and prints. In the 1980-1981 school year, Mr. Wildesin will be greatly missed. This year was a year that was marked by his sponsorship of a successful Bat- tle of the Brains team. In what- ever he endeavors, we wish him the best of luck! Mr. Wildesin looks happy, thinking about his law career. William Hester — U.S. and Va.

Faculty [ie wee For the past 15 years, a cer- tain spectator has attended the United Virginia Bank Tennis Classic. Who is this ‘‘certain spectator’? Mrs. Richardson, Midlothian’s own tennis star! Mrs. Richardson is very active in the tennis world from run- ning the junior programs in the Richmond area to swinging her own racket at Bon Air or Wil- low Oaks Country Clubs. Mrs. Richardson was born and reared in Maxton, North Carolina. She attended Maxton High School and then furthered her education at St. Andrews Presbyterian College. Tennis was her love in college, along with her two majors in chemis- try and math. Her tennis career was enhanced by the coaching of professional star, Alice Mar- ble at St. Andrews. A job opening as a chemist brought Mrs. Richardson to Midlo’s “Resident Tennis Star’”’ Richmond thirty years ago. For seven years, she worked as an employee for Dupont. During this time she met her husband, John W. Richardson, an attor- ney for the IRS. Mrs. Richard- son and her husband have two sons. The entire Richardson clan are avid tennis players. Mommy Richardson toured with her sons on the junior tournament circuit for “as long as they let me,” she says. Mr. and Mrs. Richardson play doubles and enjoy the activity. She also enjoys all spectator sports and loves the competition. Midlothian students have had the privilege of her teach- ings for the past ten years, prior that her five years at Huguenot High School. We wish her good luck in the future with all her tennis and teaching endeavors.

What few people realize is that the drill team was not started at Midlot- hian until 1968. Since that time, the team has been the lengthened shadow of one man — James Hale, a band and orchestra instructor at Midlothian for the past fourteen years. Mr. Hale’s life has been filled with music. He mastered the piano at age eight and conquered the trombone at age twelve. In fact, he still plays the trombone with the Richmond Community Orchestra. Even though Hale was a loyal member of his junior high school Music, for Hale. orchestra, it wasn’t until his sophomore year in high school that he became interested in band, and soon afterwards, he decided upon a career in music. Mr. Hale has a bachelor’s degree from Richmond Profes- sional Institute (now Virginia Commonwealth University), and has a Master’s degree from North Texas State University. He is married and has two children. Midlothian not only owes the success of its drill team to Mr. Hale, but also the phenomenal reputation of the entire music program. His flawless directions and friendly camaraderie with students has earned him the loyal admiration of both the fac- ulty and the student body. An Excedrin Headache, Mr. Hale. J. S.

The freshmen were set apart from the rest of the school because of their new- ness. Sophomores were gradu- ally heading up the ladder to be juniors, who were worried about harder classes, SAT’s, and the many college choices. Seniors were at the top of the ladder, finally, excited about graduation and heading off to college. In October, the times of fresh- men, sophomores, and juniors lives were captured by the snap and click of camera shutters, while seniors had already been photographed in August. Those photos were exchanged by friends and will always remain a treasured item of times gone by. Say, CHEESE! A Focus on the Times of Your Life During... Hank Hearnley gives the camera a big grin.

It was hard for many to believe, but they were finally at the “top.” During the year the one thing that kept all of them going was the thought of gradu- ation-June 5. Their enthusiasm was continually throughout the year. They cheered the football team, the basketball team, and just about evident every other team in the school, in order to show everyone else that the seniors dominated. As the year came to a close, “spring fever’’ and the usual “senior slump” were apparent. Most seniors were just looking forward to graduating and leav- ing for college. Their only con- cern for schoolwork was being exempted from exams. This year’s seniors were basically no different than previous senior classes; their only difference was that they were the largest graduating class Midlothian High School would ever have. When June 5 finally came there were laughs and many tears. The friendships that had been formed during the three years at Midlothian would never be forgotten. Lori Lee Averette: DECA 12.

Being.a member of the “top twenty’ was a feat that cer- tainly was to be congratulated. The members were highly dis- tinguished by being the “top” people academically in a class of 479 members. In previous years there has been a close race between the contenders of the top two places, but this year there was a tight race for every spot. Also, the people who occupied the various places changed many times before they were finally decided upon. Congratulations again went to all twenty students who accom- plished this tremendous feat.

This award was given to Paul on the basis of his high score on the current events test sponsored by Century III taken in the fall by seniors. As the high scorer, he qualified for a national scholarship. Besides being the recipient of the Leadership Award, Paul served his school well as Midlothi- an’s SGA vice-president. Also, he attended Boys’ State as Midlothian's representative during the surnmer between his junior and senior year and was selected into Who's Who Among American High School during his senior year, Paul repre- sented Midlothian on the cross country and spring track teams. Paul will attend West Point on a full scholar- ship. His goal is to major in medicine while serv- ing his five years in the armed forces as a jump surgeon (para-trooper). Midlothian High School was proud of Paul Humprey's accomplishments, and those who knew and worked with him were the richer for the relationship.

The Midlothian-Manchester game Friday night, a part-time job Saturday, a senior party and all that hoopla Saturday night, a research paper Sunday — when did we have time to rest? First period we usually looked awful, and by sixth period we looked even worse. During our last year we came to appreciate the meaning of fatigue. It was hard work being a senior, but somehow we all made it. How- ever, without the constant day- dreams of graduation, we prob- ably wouldn't have. 12; French Club 12.

It took eight years for us to get to high school, three years to become a senior, and once we were sen- iors, it took forever to graduate. It was time consuming, and it wasn't easy. Our senior year alone was filled with struggles to live up to standards of dress and social behavior. Our grades had to be high enough, and we had to maintain that cool, mature senior image without forgetting that we were still just plain old kids. We have gradually been shaped, chiseled, and molded to become the best people we can be. Now it’s our turn to show the world just what we have become. School, parents, and high school friends provided secu- rity and stability, but now we have to learn to be on our own.

This was one day that would not be forgotten in the minds of the senior class; this was the last time that the senior class would take their traditional places in the gym. However, class day brought the seniors much happiness as they cheered for one another receiv- ing scholarships and other awards. The senior superlatives were also read — the prizes proved to be hilarious to every- one present in the gym. The junior class watched enviously as the seniors paraded before them — secretly wishing that they were the graduating sen- iors. Left: Bruce Morgan receives the award for the Most Athletic Guy.

Jones, Director of Career Planning and Placement Center for North Carolina State Univer- sity, addressed the students with some very important thoughts for the future. He stressed the importance of ‘Developing a Plan for Life.” The Reverend Doctor Paul E. Crandall, Minister of Pastoral Visitation at Bon Air Baptist Church, opened the Baccalau- reate service.

On June 5, the morning of graduation, seniors gathered in the hot sun to prac- tice for the event that they had been waiting for twelve years — GRADUATION! It took almost three hours of reading names and getting situated in the right places, but the seniors somehow managed. Of course, while they were waiting to be called — or their friends to be called — they enjoyed quite a bit of socializing out on the field. After all the waiting, marching, and listening, the senior class was finally ready to graduate. Above: Mr. Hale expertly reads the names of the seniors and gives some valua- ble advice.

Wes €, Graduation 1980 finally arrived on a beautiful evening, June 5. Seniors began lining up with the aid of the marshals at 7:00. Thoughts of the past twelve years dwelled in the minds of most every senior. Seniors reflected upon the great times they had had as a class. Some regarded them with laughter while others regarded them with tears. It had been a long twelve years, but we finally made it and were ready to take on the challenges ahead. Cathy Slemp, Valedictorian, and Karen Park, Salutatorian, gave their speeches, and then the class of 1980 moved for- ward to receive their diplomas. As the Class of ’80 filed back to their seats, they realized that this would be the last time they would sit together as a whole; however, the memories would remain long after everyone had gone their separate ways. Karen Park and Lori Etkin seem to be excited. ee Above: The processional begins.

Seniors 77 Y) on == = = Be The junior year in high school is one of the most important in a student’s educational career. Jun- lors are tested extensively — PSAT’s, SRA’s, and SAT’s. Juniors get class rings, get class ranks according to mid-term grades, and plan, work on, and attend their first prom. The 1979-1980 junior class has experienced several unique events. They were the first class to take the Virginia Minimum Competency Tests, and their numbers were cut in half when neighboring Monocan High School opened this year. Though smaller in size, this year’s junior class displayed unwavering enthusiasm, pride, and aca- Junior Class Officers: eG ac Judy Burtner, Vice President; Beth Wat- demic a bility. son, Secretary; Anne Street, President: Kelly Burns, Treasurer. 78 Juniors Mark Adams Karin Agger Gabbi Agosti Marcus Antrobius Martha Applegate Brent Atkinson Linwood Austin Karin Avery Peter Bampton Phillip Bard Pam Barefoot David Bear Mike Beattie Michael Bell Steve Biass Faye Birkhimer Connie Boehling Kenneth Boerner Kim Boitnott Janie Baron Kyle Bowles Tami Bowry Richard Boyd Kim Bradshaw Andrea Brady Sara Brauer Mathew Brown Robbie Buell Linda Buehler Michael Burch Ju niors 79 80 Juniors Mike Burch Teresa Burcham Kelly Burns Judy Burtner David Burton Vicky Carneal Doug Carleton Dee Dee Carter Craig Cashion Lisa Caudel Stripes and stripes Forever Are all of the water pitchers filled? Have you delivered the evening papers to the fourth floor? These are only a few of the questions that may be answered by a Chippen- ham youth volunteer — commonly called a can- dystriper. Three junior girls, (Linda Buehler, Margaret Chaffin, and Sandy John- son) volunteered four hours a day, every week for the program. The vol- unteer program was designed for seven days a week, with shifts from 9-1, Margaret Chaffin Kim Chambers Chuck Christie Beth Clanton Teresa Clark 1-5, and 5-8:30. The hospi- tal “‘thanked”’ the candy stripers with a free meal. An individual who vol- unteers their time to serve the needs of others is obviously interested in people and their well- being. Most of the girls want to pursue a Medical career, and what a better foundation than working in a hospital? The candystriper’s duties included running errands to and from the lab, reading to patients, and playing with the chil- dren in the pediatric ward. Best of all, however, was the delivery of a bou- quet of flowers and the bright smile of the patient that went with it. Margarat Chaffin helps a patient.

Number 81? Addison Hall Kevin Hall Margaret Hardesty Dennis Hartz Carla Haynes For many, the high school class ring is a symbol of maturity; for others, a symbol of school loyalty and pride. Yet, with soaring gold prices, this year’s ring was a tangible symbol of a solid investment. The magic of precious metals has fascinated mankind for centu- ries, but never more so than today. In 1980 gold prices soared to an unbelievable $830 per ounce. This worried many Midlothian juniors who feared paying exor- bitant amounts for their class rings. With this year’s rings ranging from $45 to $130, many of the more economical juniors decided to forego purchasing a ring altogether. With the initial information packet given to each junior, the questions started to fly. Seniors patiently displayed their own rings, pointing out special features and personal options to inquis- itive juniors. Yet, when the Balfour representative began taking orders, many juniors became less certain if they really wanted the style upon which they had decided. Many minds were changed and order forms thrown away and redone before the special style, stone, cut, and emblem was finally decided upon. Then, the curious yellow finger-size gauges slowly disappeared, and the seemingly interminable wait began. It wasn’t long before all thought of the rings was put aside, and regular student life con- tinued as before. The junior’s time was soon filled with homecoming, PSAT’s, SRA testing, and the prom. Then, almost unexpectedly, “knowledgeable sources” claimed that the rings were on their way. The rumors sped quickly throughout the junior class, and “The Day” arrived, without rings, many times. Finally, however, minds were set at ease when posters appeared heralding Friday, December 14th, 1979, as the fateful day. Friday was greeted with overwhelmingly long lines, and several lucky juniors managed to report to homeroom with shiny new tal- ismans of class pride on their fingers. Many more disappointed at having to wait a considerable amount of time in the line, only to be informed that their ring was among the few that was not yet ready. More than one understanding teacher kindly allowed juniors to slip out of class to get their ring without having to wait in line, and more than one grateful junior repaid the teacher’s kindness by allowing them to be the first person to turn the new ring. It was a day filled with excitement. Starting on that Friday, and continuing for almost an entire week, the prevalent statement in the hallways was “Have you turned my ring yet?” Everyone was vulnerable — from underclassmen to teachers, upperclassmen to custodians. Excited, widely-grinning juniors would plant themselves in front of their target and thrust out a sweaty, swollen set of fingers adorned with the new ring. The “victim”, after turning the ring, would invariably ask, ‘“What number was that?” Many times the junior would pause, mentally count the most recent revolutions, and then declare a double-digit number somewhere close to the magical eighty-one. Weeks after the initial excitement, the ring became a natural part of the wearer. They proved something to play with in class, something to give a very Close friend, and something to be worn as a sign of maturity. Moreover, it provided a permanent memento of these unforgettable years.

Monacan High was built to relieve the over- crowded conditions at Midlot- hian. Heated discussions were heard during the drawing of the boundary lines as people debated the excitement of a new school against the tradi- tions of an established school. The yearbook signing party was the last official event which we all attended. Amid the hilarity and the excite- ment of seeing friends and the yearbook were tears and unhappiness over not sharing the final two years of school. Best friends were found going in different directions, couples were pulling for opposite teams, and favorite teachers were missing at the beginning of the year. Mr. Hale cried for more band members and the juniors cried for more prom funds. The juniors who were left pitched in to fill the gaps in sports, academics, clubs, class officers, and entertainment. There were fewer names on behind the wheel list, more parking spaces available, shorter lines to pick up class rings, and a smaller (but just as vocal) cheering section. At future reunions of the class of 1981, we'll have fond memories of those who left to begin the tradition of Mona- can.

Letitia (left) and Kara converse about Prom plans. Prom Facts Few students realize the complications in producing a junior-sen- ior prom. Problems exist from fireproofing the enormous amounts of paper that must decorate the gym walls, to providing abundant food and drink for the dancing couples. This year Letitia Doggett and Kara Pond were selected co-chairper- sons of the 1980 Prom. In the past two years, the work load of being chairperson was separated into two categories: decorations — and “everything else!’’ Letitia is chairperson of decorations, and Kara is chairperson of everything else. The junior class provided the backwork for the prom, while the seniors enjoyed the results. Other juniors involved in the production were Kelley Burns, painting; Lisa Caudel, clean-up; Margaret Chaf- fin, figure; Susan DePew, sophomore servers; Larry Diamond, con- struction; Amy Dickson, refreshments; Hank Hernly, artists; Julie O'Brien, table decorations; Louise Scott, adult staff; and Karen Starke, memory books and invitations. Teachers involved in helping the juniors were Mrs. Ellis and Mrs. Saunders: == The juniors decided upon April 26, 1980 as the night of the spring occasion, and music was provided by Toppz. Kara and Letitia plan- ned entertainment for 300 couples for the milestone event as the fig- ure started at 8:30 and the dance at 9:00. Kara, Letitia, and the junior class had a formidable task and only with their combined leadership and the cooperation of the entire jun- ior Class was the Prom of 1980 a success.

Two junior girls had this experience in France over the summer. Both girls were involved in an exchange program, but each was sponsored by different organiza- tions. Heidi Seaberg won the schol- arship sponsored by the Midlot- hian High School language department whose funds for the scholarship were raised through the taster’s supper. Heidi found out about the program through her French teacher, Mrs. Jones, and decided to apply. Her plans included a trip to Battleboro, Vermont, where she attended a brief orientation and met with the other six students involved in the program. After a quick flight to N.Y., Heidi and her caravan were Off to Paris for four weeks. Heidi had been studying the French language and culture since the seventh grade and her future plans include a possible degree in international law. Kim Williamson also had the experience of traveling abroad this summer. She was sponsored by Trinity Episcopal High School and learned of the pro- gram through her French teacher, Mrs. Jones. Kim left the U.S. on August 29th and returned September 20th. She lived with a family in Vernon, France, which is a small town 80 kilometers west of Paris. Through Kim’s exchange pro- gram, she had the opportunity to meet and host a member of the French family with whom she would stay prior to her visit. Corine Georger lived with Kim and her Family March 28-April 18. Kim said she had qualms about the long overseas flights, large airposts, and communica- tion problems, but felt that, with Corine visiting her first most of the fears were able to be ironed out. Heidi and Kim have a cher- ished memory of their experi- ences that will always enrich their lives.

How- ever, this year the alarm was accompanied by the clatter of several pairs of running feet — Midlo’s own students who are members of the Midlothian Volunteer Fire Department. Juniors Richard Boyd, John Murray, Craig Schmidt, Jim Squares, and Mike Talley were “on-call” twenty-four hours a day. As a result, whenever the familiar wail began, they drop- ped whatever they were doing — including schoolwork — and Re LSS | a a F: � f . j 2 raced over to the stationhouse. Why would a junior in high school want to risk his life on the front line of a roaring blaze? According to at least one of the young men, ‘‘the danger is a main facet of my interest. It gives you a sense of adventure, yet you also have the satisfac- tion of serving the public.” Of the five students, only one was sure that he wants to make firefighting a career. Richard Boyd joined the Midlothian Volunteer Fire Department to lay a foundation for his future firefighting career. The five juniors have been involved from one to five years, and first had to attend special classes for their training. According to Mike Talley, there was no_ difference between a volunteer fireman and a paid, full time fireman. “The duties are basically the same. We actually fight fires and rescue people. We all put our lives in constant risk.” Ded- ication selflessness, and an honest desire to serve were all characteristics of a good public servant. Midlothian was fortu- nate to have among its student body, five prime examples.

The pres- sure was on because the junior year’s grades were an important consideration to colleges. College suddenly seemed close, and preparations were being thought out carefully. Juniors realized this was the time to start making deci- sions and working for that special desti- nation. Not only were grades suddenly a con- cern, but juniors were bombarded with testing programs. PSAT’s were only a warm-up for SAT’s the real thing — which many juniors chose to take in the spring. Although studying was not required for SAT’s, the three long hours of testing were quite enough to tire jun- iors. At this point juniors felt ‘‘over- exposed” to hard work. Although juniors spent numerous hours in the library researching, doing homework, learning to type term papers, and beginning to plan their futures, juniors still made time to socialize. When the weekend came, crashing parties, seeing movies, or just catching up on some sleep were priori- ties. Clockwise: Doug Carlton prepares for class. Nancy White crams during lunch. Deep concentration helps Robby Buell complete his assignment. Juniors 93 Double Exposure Leisure time in school was spent differently by each stu- dent. Some threw frisbees dur- ing lunch — some read maga- zines in the library — some caught up on some studying; and some just slept! The main goal was to get away from the routine of sitting and thinking in class. Leisure time, therefore, was ‘‘double- timed” to make up for the gru- eling time spent learning. We all thrived when we had time to spend it the way we wanted, but the problem was spending it wisely. Most Mid- lothian students easily found an escape for their leisure time.

Even though the sopho- more class was smaller this year than it has been in quite a few years, it was not small in enthusiasm. Their annual magazine drive was met with success, which contributed to their somewhat limited funds. With the many various opportunities Midlothian offers, sophomores got a taste of what the next couple of years would hold for them. 96 Sophomores Sophomore Stars Sophomore Class Officers: president, Stan Yukevich; vice president, Eddie Dean; secretary, Janis McElwee; trea- surer, Deana Hilton.

They had to work harder to get good grades, and maybe even stay up a little later at night. But one thing didn’t change, and that was finding something to smile about.

Sophomores 103 In the past years, each class seems to have had one person who excelled in the field of art, who shared their talent with their class; however, the sopho- more class was endowed with three such talented people. They are Kevin Scruggs, Chris O’Brien, and Steve Train. Kevin Scruggs had always liked to draw. Working mostly with pencil and floral, Kevin sketched out many different fine pieces of work.

Like Kevin, Chris has always enjoyed drawing. He took several courses at Robious and at the tech center where he puts his talent on paper with pencil and pen and ink. Steve Train also liked using pen and ink in addition to pas- tels. With pen and ink he was able to draw the finer details the majority of his drawings required. He, too, had never entered into judging or exhibits, but illustrated his junior high yearbook. The talents of these three young artists will con- tinue to enrich the fine arts of Midlothian.

They were faced with many responsibili- ties and were forced to spend much more time concentrating on their school work. Students _ had papers to write, novels to read, tests to take and projects to complete. For the first time in their lives, sophomores knew what it was like to work hard and fast to meet deadlines. They began to concentrate on bringing up their grade-point averages and to start thinking about future plans. The sopho- more year was the first step toward successful scholastic achievements.

During the brief minutes between classes. they talked with friends, combed their hair, . and sometimes stopped by their lockers before the dreaded tardy bell rang. The real fun came during lunch (a whole half an hour) when they ram- bled in the halls, played frisbee outside, or read a magazine in the library! These fun and games helped relieve sopho- mores from the many stresses and frustrations of schoolwork.

She began her career in the sixth grade at Robious Elemen- tary School, and then contin- ued her training at the Olym- piad, a popular Richmond- based training center. Judy works out all year, and the actual season was from Novem- ber until April. During the actual competi- tion, the Olympiad team trav- eled to several neighboring states for gymnastic contests. Of all the various aspects of competition, Judy enjoyed free exercise the most. Judy planned to continue in her successful gymnastics career, and was hoping for a college scholarship due to her prowess. Judy Anderson shows perfection as she performs on the balance beam. Sophomores 113 New to Midlo It was evident the first day of school that something was very different. At second glance we realized that it was the ninth graders making their first appearance at Midlo. The upperclassmen discovered, contrary to popular belief, that the addition of the freshman class enhanced rather than hindered life at Midlothian. They contributed greatly to sports, clubs, and other school activities. Their smiling faces often made the day easier to bear. The friendships which developed between the ninth graders and the upperclassmen served as the basis for relation- ships which were not to be for- gotten.

She started running in the seventh grade after breaking her arm twice in gymnastics. Although this was a loss to the gymnastics team, the track team greatly benefitted. In the ltsia Birds lt sa Planeeas eighth grade she placed fif- teenth in the twelve-thirteen age group of the AAU East Coast Regional Meet. This year Becky won first place in the indoor track meet at the Rich- mond Arena. She also broke the two mile record by seven seconds at the Regional AAA Cross-Country Champs Meet. With her outstanding record in running, Becky hoped to received a college scholarship. She fully intends to continue running after high school. In her spare tifne, Becky enjoyed swimming and bicycle riding. She was also an active member in the French Club.

Freshmen 119 {GET YOURSELF PENAL 4 a id 9 P a i en of The writing of journals was a big part of freshman English this year. Freshmen feel that although their move te Midlot- hian had many positive aspects, writing journals was not one of them. The thought of having one’s English teacher know all one’s extracurricular activities was not pleasant for most freshmen. Although many freshmen ended up hating the word “journal”, some students enjoyed this unique learning experience. To some students, writing journals was more entertaining than reading Shakespeare or learning those useful grammar rules. When the writing of journals was over, relieved freshmen won- dered what their imaginative English teachers would plan for them next.

When others were laboring over the right words to use for a composition, Jeanne was writing for fun. She developed her hobby of writing into the job of writing a column in the Midlothian Gazette. Her column, ‘“‘Midlothian High School News,” was a popular item in the paper. While writing Fascinating Freshman was a positive outlet, Jeanne had other interests which kept her busy. She took ballet les- sons twice a week and prac- ticed at least an hour a day in an attempt to prepare for her dream of becoming a profes- sional ballerina, a dream she had harbored since she was a very young girl. Racquetball was another of Jeanne’s pas- times. This was not only an exciting challenge to her, but also a pleasant change from her other activities. She also enjoyed swimming and horse- back riding when time permit- ted. At Midlothian, Jeanne was a member of the vocal ensem- ble and an active member of the drama club. Although only a freshman, Jeanne has accom- plished more than most high school students.

But if you asked either fresh- man how they managed to get so banged-up, they probably would have told you that it happened as they vaulted off a bicycle into a ditch. You see, both boys want to be stuntmen, and have spent the past one and one-half years doing daring bicycle stunts. “We sometimes get going really fast, and fall off the back of the bike. Sometimes we flip into ditches, or sometimes we just ride our bikes backwards,” Arthur Hudgins Jay Hughes Elizabeth Humphrey Thomas Humphrey Wilde Ingalls Marianna Inslee Thomas Inslee Heather Jenifer Amy Johnson Andy Johnson Donna Jones Lisa Jones Scott Jones Suzanne Jones Freshmen And for My Next Trick, Il explained Andy. Both fourteen-year-olds were members of the wrestling team and the gymnastics squad so most of their derring-do was done during the summer months. Andy started out by accident. “T was riding one day, and acci- dentally flipped into a ditch. It was then that I started thinking about doing stunts.” Allen said, “Since we’ve never been seriously hurt, our parents really don’t mind — but they think we’re crazy!” It may have seemed ridicu- lous to enjoy intentionally rid- ing into a pole, but with the exorbitant salaries paid to today’s cinematic stuntmen, maybe Allen and Andy weren't so crazy after all...

From his own time until the present, Shake- speare’s plays have captured the imaginations of the aristocrats and the laborers, the scholars and the uneducated. When one speaks of ‘the Bard,” there is never any doubt about who is meant: it is Shakespeare, whom William Car- los Williams once called “the great- est university of all.” This year Midlothian was enter- tained by two freshmen Diane Abato and Sonja Davis — who captured the two female leads in Shakespeare’s “The Taming of the Shrew,’ produced in February. The production was a successful attempt to bring cultural and dra- matic sophistication to the students of Midlothian. I tried out just on the spur of the moment,’ said Diane. ‘“‘My only other theatrical experience con- Diane and Sonja portray the feuding sisters in “Shrew”’.

Both freshmen like acting, but admit that it takes a lot of time. Also, neither of the two girls has ever read Shakespeare before. The ten weeks of rehearsal for “Shrew” familiarized them with the Eliza- bethan language, but they both admitted having difficulty during the tryouts for the play. Diane has found that she greatly enjoys performing, and she has come to admire Shakespeare's style. “Shakespeare's drama can be read like any modern play because of the story, the characters, and the philosophy of life that he packs into each play.” ile Diane Abato, the Shrew, is caught devising another scheme.

As a member of the wrestling team, John has wrestled for five years. He started wrestling at Pennsylvania’s Iroquois High School, and while in Pennsyl- vania, he won first place awards at a Christmas Tourna- ment and the Pennsylvania Jun- ior Olympics. At his second trip to the Junior Olympics, he won second place honors. John is the top wrestler in Midlothian’s 98-pound weight division. His record is 8 pins, 11 wins, and 1 loss. John started’ wrestling because his brother was a Penn State wrestling champion. He practices for almost two and a half hours a day as a team member, and lifts weights in his spare time.

The theme of the clothing industry for the new decade was “Back to Classics,” and tweeds, her- ringbones, button-down Oxfords, and monogrammed cardigans could be seen in abundance at Midlothian. The “preppy” look was still foremost in vogue — Topsiders, tassled loafers and Khakis were almost a standard. The Izod alligator could be seen everywhere. The Levi-Strauss Company still had its monopoly on America’s youth. Levi’s, whether denim or cords, were the sign of the All-American teenager. Most male students dress primarily for comfort. 140 Fads and Fashion The prevalent “prep” style can be found in the faculty as well as the students. Some students dress very fashionably for school. Most girls dress casually but attractively. Student Life 141 Recreation Jenny Cota makes a new friend at Virginia Beach. For most people, skiing is a sedentary sport. However, “practice makes perfect,” and many Midlothian students could be found almost every weekend on the slopes of © Wintergreen, Snow Shoe, Seven Springs, or Massanut- ten ski resorts. In fact several Trojan clubs planned excur- sions to the popular ski resorts. Many other students could be found vacationing at nearby Nags Head, North Car- olina, or Virginia Beach, Vir- ginia. The sandy beaches have always proved to be a lure for study weary students, and this year proved no exception. The senior class made plans early in the school year to take their trip to Daytona Beach, Flo- rida.

The 1979-1980 school year proved to be a time filled with recreation and sport, and whether you ended up skiing or sliding down the slope, a day in the snow proved to be a welcome change from the aca- demic rigors of Midlothian. Sun, sand, and surf also proved to be a worthwhile escape for students. Beginning in early March, one and two week absences for the annual family beach vacation were common. The first students to return tanned and relaxed were objects of intense jeal- ousy. Soon, however, almost everyone enjoyed that infec- tious salt air, and the healthy glow of suntans soon became almost as predominant as the winter’s brightly-colored ski jackets.

Supportive Trojans jammed the stands at archrival Man- chester High School on Decem- ber 4, 1979, attired like Devo, a popular new-wave rock group. Sunglasses and trenchcoats were worn by a majority of the fans, undaunted by the fact that they were not on home terri- tory. Our overwhelming victory over Manchester signified a new era in Trojan spirit. Instead of stale, timeworn cheers, fans now presented themselves at games in unu- sual, and sometimes questiona- ble, attire. An unknown, highly imagi- native student served as the creative source and prescribed the theme of each game. The information rapidly spread throughout the school. There was an Iranian night, when fans wore turbans; a newspaper gimmick night, when fans nonchalantly read their evening papers while the visiting team was introduced. In a play on words, Trojans arrived in bathing suits when we Challenged the Petersburg Wave. Sunglasses, towels, and tanning lotion bottles could be seen everywhere. Perhaps this unusual fan enthusiasm paid off, since we defeated the toughest team in the District. At the second Midlothian- Manchester contest, hosted by the Trojans, spectators arrived in three-piece suits in a humor- ous attempt to show the Lanc- ers that we are not “dirt farm- ers. We did succeed in one thing: we showed Manchester that we play superior basket- ball. Once again, we defeated our most intensive rival. The 1980 school year wit- nessed perhaps the most spir- ited Trojans in Midlothian’s history. Some of the gimmicks were inappropriate, some were downright rude; but they sym- bolized a turning point in school pride. Yes, the Trojans have that spirit, and they displayed an abundance of it this year. Top to Bottom: Smear a Cavaerli? Billy Hyler and Jimbo Thompson join ‘‘new-wave.” “ride” the Petersburg Waves.

Being injured is a part of life that no one misses out on com- pletely; the student body at Midlothian represented that fact very well this year. On just about any given day, casts, splints, or crutches could be seen throughout the halls. Inju- ries resulted from activities such as falling down ski slopes, being tackled by defensive line- men, or walking in to doors. Each day some unfortunate stu- dent occupied the clinic couch, resting a sprained ankle or nursing a headache caused by a misplaced tennis racket. 444444 444400 444444 | Ae Me de Se Me A Donkey Doings Once again, the DECA club sponsored the annual Donkey Basketball game, and once again, teachers as well as students took to the basketball court and pro- ceeded to be humiliated by a bunch of foul-smelling donkeys. The teams, faculty and students, attempted to shoot baskets while trying to control their animals. To the spectators, this was a hilarious scene. The game ended with the students win- ning, 22-24, in a hard-fought overtime game. The bruises and sore muscles attested to the fact that the game was fun for the riders as it was for the spectators. The donkeys seem to have other ideas. Student Life 147 148 Sports Awards The sports awards assemblies gave recognition to athletes whose perform- ances were outstanding.

This year’s prom committee, headed by Letitia Doggett and Kara Pond, put in countless hours of hard work, and the various committee members could attest to plans, changed plans, and improvised plans. Finances posed a slight problem this year, too, since half of the junior class treasury was donated to Monocan. All in all, however, the hard work shown by the extremely colorful murals was well worth it, and the grateful memories of the senior class were appreci- ated by the frustrated, paint- smeared juniors.

The junior class voted and decided on “Southern Nights” as the theme. Murals decorated the walls with plantation scenes while magnolia leaves were placed at random along the entryway and in the window sills. A new band to Midlothian, “Topp”, provided the music for dancing and had everyone out on the dance floor.

The popular dinner at Mad King Ludwig's, featuring a variety of German food, was the highlight of the fall season. At Christmas the annual progressive dinner provided an oppor- tunity for students to sample various selections of German cooking prepared by the members. Other plans for the year included a trip to Busch Gardens and a spring picnic. Katie Dreyer helps to serve dishes at the Taster's Supper.

The traditional Toga Dinner Banquet held at Christmas was followed by a very successful slave auction this year which boosted the forty awards claimed by Midlothian students at the Latin Convention in Roa- noke, a number of trophies claimed by the Certamen teams in competition with local schools, and more than sixty students participating in the National Latin Exam. The Ides of March skit during Language Week, the Spring Banquet hon- oring seniors, and Roman games at the University of Rich- mond rounded out an eventful year.

They performed many tasks — answering the phones, typing, filing, and delivering messages — enabling the secretaries to pursue more important duties. Mike Walls, Sherry Himelbloom, Jane Hylton, Sherrie Rasner. Library Aides The Midlothian Library aides provided a vital yet little recog- nized service to the school. They forfeited a free period each day to help the librarians. Many of their duties included carding and shelving books, handling book fines, helping students locate material, run- ning the copy machine, as well as many other organizational tasks. Every Midlothian student who has used the library owes much to the library aides.

They began by attending the spectacular lasar show, and informative film presentation, at the Virginia Science Museum. They dis- played their artistic talents by creating a bulletin board on energy. The active Science Club attended several presenta- tions on various subjects; C.P.R., Science Careers, and medical careers. In the spring they traveled to the Smithso- nian Institute and the Virginia Institute of Marine Science. They completed the year by attending the fabulous annual meeting of Virginia Junior Academy of Science in Char- lottesville.

Under the guidance of president Lisa Wilson and sponsor Mrs. Martha Parker, the club expanded and became better organized this year. The holding of two very successful sock hops was evidence of this new prog- ress. The club also provided mums for the homecoming court and partici- pated enthusiastically against the cheerleaders in the tense, 21-21 powder puff football game. This year the members supported the athletic teams by baking them cakes and sending gifts. The club also gave canned goods to a needy fam- ily at Christmas.

Year after year, the Midlothian High School Concert Choir has achieved an excellence rarely matched by other high school groups. Nineteen-eighty was no exception. Under the virtuoso direction of Mrs. Rebecca Wright, the enthusiastically loyal choir participated in several activities during the course of the year. The Advanced Choir performed at Back-to-School Night and the fall convocation at John Tyler Community College. In addition they a performed a Christmas concert at the Richmond Home for Ladies. All of the groups combined to perform a choral concert both at Midlothian and at Cloverleaf Mall over the holidays. In addition, twelve students were chosen for the Regional Chorus at Lloyd Bird School in early February. The entire choral music saree was judged by professional musicians at Choral Festi- val. On March 26th, the music department undertook a challenging endeavor, Mass in G by Franz Schubert. This special concert, per- formed with a small chamber orchestra, was an enormous success. Later in the school year, each group performed both at a May 30th Spring concert and the June 1st Baccalaureate Service. isp A tae AA la BE LBBB ABBR LBP AAA pes Girls’ Chorus: First Row: Renee Granback, Robin Mays, Wendy West, Vikki Dorsey, Jennifer Johnson, Susan Wiernas.

This year the team com- peted in three competitions through- out the country traveling all the way to Culver, Indiana for one tourna- ment. Each year the team performs the drill for the student body at a basket- ball game. The Honor Guard part of the team performs at football games, with the band in parades throughout the state and presents the colors at various activities. 182 Honor Guard Drill Team Majorettes Snap Into Action The Midlothian majorette squad performed during the school year at parades, football games, basketball games, and various elementary schools. Kathy O’Quinn, the captain, and co-captains Donna Spatig and Penny Mills, led the squad to a first place trophy in an Appomattox parade. The team’s major fund raising event was the April Talent Show.

If this is true, then the Midlothian Drama Department was fortunate to: have almost two hundred creative interpreters this year. The department, under the capable leadership of Mrs. Katharine Baugher, had an enormously successful year of drama. The year started with the comedy “Cheaper by the Dozen,” a delightfully funny story about the everyday life of an efficiency expert and his twelve children. The second production was William Shakespeare's ‘‘The Taming of the Shrew.” This love story-comedy was extremely successful, due in large part to a “Shakespeare is not boring!’’ pub- licity campaign that lured students to the show. The musical extravaganza for the spring was “‘Oliver!’’ The large cast and challenging script produced an excel- lent, highly enjoyable show. While the students on the stage per- formed commendably, the two hundred drama enthusiasts who performed important duties behind the scenes were just as necessary. The drama department's well- rounded selection of plays again pro- vided respite from the rigors of aca- demic life.

We owe much of the success of the 1980 Trojan to their dedicated efforts. They were constantly under pressure to take and develop pictures, especially around the frantic deadlines when everyone was screaming for pictures, pictures, and still more pictures.

Varsity Football 197 The Trojans discuss a winning play. Beund and D The Trojan team was bound and determined to make this season a successful one. It took a few games to make that deter- mination work, but it did. When the boys lost a game, it riled them up for the next one. They never stopped pushing until they won that first game. Once they won that, they con- tinued to win other games. Their most pleasing victories were over Manchester and Din- 198 Varsity Football widdie. Manchester was our top rival, and Dinwiddie was an upper ranked team. It was a shame those first four games could not be played over again, but the team came back and showed us how good they could be. Their determina- tion in the end was what tied the Trojans’ record 5-5. That was what counted — hard work, teamwork, sportsman- ship, and determination.

How- ever, the junior varsity Trojans, including freshmen for the very first time, started the season with two devastating losses — 30-0 to Manchester, and 28-0 to Thomas Dale. The third game —a 14-2 loss to Meadowbrook, did not raise their spirits much either. Finally, some of their promise was revealed in a 6-0 victory over Matoaca. How- ever, they lost their next game to Clover Hill, 21-6, but soon followed it up with a 7-6 win over neighboring Monocan High School. In an unexpect- edly tight game, the junior var- sity Trojans lost bravely to L. C. Bird, 30-20: The season ended on an easy note, a 7-0 forfeit from Hopewell. With a final record of 3-5, it obviously was not an unusually successful season. Yet the jun- ior varsity Trojans should be congratulated for displaying cooperation, good faith, and sportsman like attitudes throughout the unsuccessful season. Trojans get trampled.

Junior Varsity Football 201 Lisa Kipple Shoots for Two The girls’ varsity basketball team made Midlothian very proud with a highly successful regular season of fourteen wins and four losses. Their overall season record was fifteen wins and five losses. “The team’s commend- able performance was mainly due in large part to their hard off-season work in the summer, at basketball camps, and to their dedication to the game of basketball,” as put by their coach, Mr. Garrett. The cine finished second in the district to the defending state champi- ons, Marshall-Walker. Of the thirteen teammates, eight of them will be gradu- ate this June, and nine of them let- tered. The girls took their practices very seriously and worked to achieve their outstanding season record. They prac- ticed well together to learn the game, and played well together to win. Each girl contributed her special talent to the team, resulting in an excellent display of teamwork. This teamwork proved gravely essential in such outstanding victories over Hopewell (63-38), Thomas Dale (65-39) and Manchester (50-27), not to mention many other com- parable victories. Rachel Jordan was the leading scorer, averaging sixteen points per game, and leading rebounder, averaging thirteen rebounds per game. Because of her notable ability and talent, she earned a position on the All-Central District sec- ond team. Lisa Kipple, another out- standing talent on the squad, also aver- aged about sixteen points per game, and averaged eight rebounds per game. A junior this year, she was chosen for the All-Central District first team, and hopefully will be returning next year to exercise her promising talent. Midlothian was fortunate this year to have had such an outstanding and well- coached team to be proud of, and to extend its congratulations to the fine performance of the girls’ varsity basket- ball team.

Spectators witnessed great determination, promising ability, and con- cise teamwork. Only a small margin deter- mined the victor of the Lady Trojan’s bouts; yet, Coach Landes encouraged the team’s spirit throughout the year. As a member of the junior varsity squad this year, each girl took advantage of the opportunity to gain valuable experience, and to become knowledgeable in the game of basketball. Each day in practice the girls worked very hard to perfect their technique and style. As new plays were introduced, they were quickly learned and repetitiously practiced to produce perfec- tion. This kind of determination proved successful against such opponents as the Lady Waves of Petersburg, the Lady Mon- archs of Meadowbrook, the Lady Blue Devils of Hopewell, and others. Hopefully, this season has prepared many of the Lady Trojans for a position on next year’s girls’ varsity basketball team. The experience, knowledge, and insight provided by this basketball season should prove to be a good boost for a promotion on to the var- sity squad. Right: Carol Auman looks for an out.

They practiced everyday after school, rigorously preparing for their next meet. Braving the cold September and October weather, the girls endured long five to ten mile runs. For many of them, this was excellent training for future seasons in cross-country, as the team has all its members returning next year. This kind of practice also helped those girls planning to run indoor track to get into shape for meets they would be encountering then. The girls went to two invitational meets at William and Mary and at the University of Virginia. They placed six- teenth at William and Mary; however, team scores were not recorded at the University of Virginia. They placed :sec- ond in the regional meet, where Becky Conklin took first and Anne Marie McAnally took second place. The team emerged twelfth in the state meet.

After the boys’ cross-country team had their first taste of victory against Marshall-Walker, eight other victories followed to bring their record to nine wins and no losses. The highly victorious season ended with a first place position in the Central District, and a sixth place in the region. The boys’ cross- country team also went to two invi- tationals, at William and Mary and at the University of Virginia. At Wil- liam and Mary the J.V: placed twelfth and the varsity placed fifth in their division.

When the Midlothian Athletic Department met last spring and decided to form a soccer team, they were, literally, “dreaming” — we had no field, and relatively little interest. Now, one year later, the Midlothian soccer team is an unparalled success. It was an experi- ment that worked. The 1980 Midlothian soccer team has been her- alded as the best high school squad in the entire state of Virginia — and with good reason. At the beginning of this school term, the coaches found that contrary to their earlier beliefs, there was high interest in a soccer team — but primar- ily among 9th and 10th graders. These players’ eventually proved to be the core of the team, forming a good, solid, nucleus for future years. The Midlothian soccer squad epi- tomized quality playing with quality people. Often playing in snow, mud, and rain the teams — both varsity and junior var- sity — represented Midlothian superbly, ending the season with a record of 8-1-3.

The season opener against archrival Manchester was a tough, hard fought victory, 76-75 in overtime. The second game proved to be an easy 76-62 victory over Meadowbrook. Marshall-Walker, a formidable, high-speed city team, cut short our victory streak with a score of 62-76. Next, Petersburg’s Wave failed to ‘“‘dunk”’ the Trojan team, and we bounced back with 54-50 victory. Prince George then succumbed to Tro- jan skill, falling 66-52.

We lost to them 58-82, but the Trojans responded with a quick succession of 218 Varsity Basketball three victories — 77-55 over Dinwiddie 64-63 over Colonial Heights, and 68-63 over Thomas Dale. Benedictine then rolled over the Trojans, 76-64. Starting a second sweep through the District, we once again defeated the Manchester Lancers by one point, 44- 43. However, in a grueling replay, Mar- shall-Walker effectively squashed our efforts and defeated us 97-45. Prince George fell to the Trojans a second time, 67-47, but Petersburg atoned for their earlier loss by defeating us 56-48. Hopewell defeated us a second time by seven points, 69-62. The next five games were all solid Midlothian victories: Din- widdie by 19, Colonial Heights by 7, Thomas Dale by 8, Benedictine by 9, and Colonial Heights again by 8, Mar- shall-Walker ended our season with a 47-36 victory over the Trojan team. “It’s a bird, it’s a plane ... it’s a basket,” points out Kim Chambers.

That’s my mother way over there behind the fence.’ A teammate responded with, “Don’t be silly! You can’t possibly hit her from here — it’s over 200 yards!!” With nine juniors and nine seniors, this year’s baseball team proved to be more successful than previous Midlot- hian teams, ending the season with 9-9 record. Under the leadership of tri-cap- tains Mike Bell, Powell Blankenship, and David Pittman, the team found itself in sixth place in the central Dis- trict. The pitchers included starters David Pittman, David Long, and Powell Blankenship. Kim Chambers and Ron Rouse were used in relief. Ron Rouse, Kim Chambers, Knox Stacy, Ken Leme- lin, James Shumacker, and Frank Street played the infield. Jeff Conner, Kevin Bonner, Mike Bell, Ben Eason, Chuck Christie, and Mike Lipscomb saw out- field duty. Bruce Morgan and John Jef- fers did the catching. “Bat girls’ Ellen Cole and Cathy Poehler, with manager Donna Ruggiero, assisted the team during their ardent participation in the national pastime — the mother-apple pie-hot dog-ham- burger game of baseball.

Varsity Baseball 231 A purposely-unnamed junior varsity baseball team member raised an unholy ruckus about a called third strike when the umpire said, “Pipe down, son, and nobody but you and me and the catcher will know you can’t see anymore!” Appar- ently, the third strike did not matter, because Midlo’s J.V. team ended the season with an impressive 8-6-1 record. With only a few varsity players returning next year, some J.V.’s will move up to play on the varsity team — building a strong team both offensively and defensively for the 1981 season.

The fourteen-member squad high- lighted the season by winning four of their last six games — two victories which were over winning district teams. Coaches Ruby Slayton and Marjorie Brooks, managers Cindy and Alicia White, and Captains Rachel Jordan and Diane Sears molded each team member into a champion through honest effort, sports- manship, patience, and respect not only for each other, but for their opponents, too. The girls witnessed victory as well as defeat, happiness as well as despair. Yet the experiences of the season brought them closer together, and taught them valu- able lessons in discipline and responsibility. Ingrid Schulz and Geri Douglas goof- off after the game.

The 1979-1980 varsity cheerleaders found that all these challenges formed a cohesive bond that made their spirit of together- ness even stronger. Working as a unit, they promoted school spirit that fired-up our teams and sent them to victory. Their togetherness actu- ally began back in the sum- mer of 1979 when they all attended cheering camp at Virginia Wesleyan College, where they captured the spirit award. From football season until the very end of the year, the cheerleaders exhibited the enthusiasm that showed our cheerlead- ers to be one step above the rest; Shelly Dean 238 Cheerleaders UP aE oe Spirit Gail Pond Vitality was the word that described the junior varsity cheerleaders. They showed all of our competitors they were the most spirited squad of jv cheerleaders in the dis- trict. They met each task with an enthusiasm that was hard to match. Whether they were making crafts to sell in a crafts show, or cheering their loudest at a pep rally, they were obviously full of spirit. They were also active with projects such as man- ning the telephones at Chan- nel 23’s “Festival 80” fund- raiser and preparing in the spring for a cheering compe- tition at King’s Dominion.

Each one of us would go our own way for the summer and many would return for another year at Mid- lothian, but for the seniors this was the last time they would ever be a member of the stu- dent body of Midlothian High School. The end of school finally became a reality on June 6 for the underclassmen, while seniors graduated on June 5. The 1979-1980 school year was now a part of the past. Randy Howard can’t wait to leave. A Focus on the Times of Your Life DWP. . Students eagerly leave school on the last day. Some students leave for the summer, while others leave for good. CLOSIN Empty halls reflect the end of the 1979- 1980 school year. The seniors of 1980 would like to take this oppor- tunity to say that while we probably won’t miss the hard work we encountered at Midlo; we will miss our friends and the good times we had. Closing 257 Reflections The 1979-1980 school year proved to be a year filled with quite a bit of excitement. There were many “scheduled” events, and then there were quite a few that weren't. During the middle of the year we encountered a bomb threat — it seemed excit- ing to us since we got to miss most of sixth period. During the month of April many area schools were plagued with a measles problem. Many wor- ried students ran home, scared that they might get the measles. As a result of this panic there was a school wide measles ino- culation clinic held for all stu- dents who needed measles shots. April also was an event- ful month because that was the month that the Prom was held, when our frisbee privileges were taken away, and when Mr. Beckner opened his room to find that it had been toilet papered and put up for sale. Those were some of the times of the life that occurred at Midlo in 1980. Let me have that frisbee, says Coach Wilton. John Fechino and Sue Jaeger enjoy the Prom. bi Claudia Chazo seems scared of her measles shot. 258 Reflections Top: Needless to say, Mr. Beckner is a little bit shocked.

I never realized how much was expected of the editor, but if I had it to do all over again, I would still want to be the editor. However, without all the help and advice Mrs. Miles gave me, I would never have made it! More than once, I was ready to scream and pull my hair out! It was exasperating to a 100 page deadline, but only have 77 pages finished. Despite the problems I encountered, I will always cherish both the experience of being the editor of the 1980 TROJAN and the opportunity to handle such a great responsibility. I hope you will enjoy the 1980 TROJAN and remember the 1979-1980 year always. 264 Editor's Page Lynne Gilley and Mrs. Miles confer on ideas. Acknowledgements I would like to express my appreciation to the 1980 TROJAN staff for their hard work creating the 1980 TROJAN. Together we made it what it is. Thanks to: Mrs. Miles, who spent many long hours worrying about the yearbook, checking pages, and putting up with all of us. Our photography staff — when they weren't taking pictures, they kept the dungeon clear of mice. Danny DeFalco, our representative from Taylor Pub- lishing Co. He provided us with new innovative ideas and advice on our layouts. Bill Thompson, of Olan Mills, who was constantly called to take pictures and provide us with film. Mr. Poates, for his constant support. The teachers and the administration of Midlothian, who were understanding about class interruptions and absences — especially during deadlines. The patrons and advertisers, who provided the neces- sary monetary support. The greatest appreciation goes to the entire Midlo student body. Without your support and participation, this yearbook would not have been possible.
