Another Midlothian awaited them at a new address, 401 Charter Colony Parkway, where an imposing new edifice stood. Students peered curiously at the new building where 1080 hours of the next year would be spent. After the past few years, a time of growing dissatisfaction with outdated facilities and too many student bodies per square inch, MHS transplanted itself to a new space. This was a building where everything and everyone had its place and even the amaz- ing new hydraulic garbage compactor had a room to itself. a a © What Else Is New vale Initially, questions arose as to whether the school had survived the move, spirit intact. The answers came within the first week.” Students trekked the halls seeking to stake out personal chat spots 3 and to discover where room 213 really was. Clubs began to organize and fall sport sessions lent to the gym area the first hints — of a distinctive ‘'sporty’’ odor. The new Midlothian began to settle © down or settle up, depending on the perspective of the individual student. The school’s inhabitants began the long and intriguing process of making their mark on Midlothian. SENIORS CONTRIBUTED paper showers, a caveman, and plenty of spirit to peprallies in the gym.

OBLIVIOUS TO THE EVENTS around her, sophomore Kelly Dean appears completely in- volved in her reading. In 1984-85 individuality was in style. Weirdness became in vogue and manifested itself no- ticeably in student attire. Flo- rescent socks blared from an- _kles, shown off by high-cut cropped pants. Fashion-con- scious students wore beads in the midst of foreheads, show- casing a lock or two of well- _ greased hair. Many colors pol- ka-dotted Midlo hall s, but black was still basic, enlivened _ perhaps by a single strand of pearls. Individuality also showed up in student activity. People ‘did their own thing’’and said what they thought. New clubs were started by energetic people; one club to save lives, one club -to improve lives and one club - to add life to our spirit. The Stu- dents Against Drunk Driving -(SADD), the Key Club, and the - Colorguard have been institu- tions at other county high schools and their addition helped make 1984-85 memo- rable. Midlo oozed spirit. Pride in the school and its people led to an increased attendance at sport competitions.

The football team's confron- tation with the Meadowbrook Monarchs was showcased in the first Homecoming on Mid- lothian turt, a turf rendered ex- tra green by the new sprinkler system. Though the Trojans lost, it was a valiant fight. Midlo’s academics boasted impr ovements in many areas. New equipment for every de- partment from math to drama put bright sparkles in happy teacher's eyes. The math in- structors expressed approval with the special boards etched with mathematical elements. The library was ecstatic with the high-tech book security de- vice. The auditorium shone like a mini-galaxy with the addition of new lights. It was the opinion of many students, however, that the new school’s greatest improvement was the school- wide installation of air condi- tioning. Cool and grateful stu- dents remembered the agonies of taking exams with perspira- tion puddles on the upper lip.

In ord er to With the spirit of the fans and band ine Beat Viera ‘Ola Homecoming 1984 was approaching and signs showed all through the school. Clusters of students held secretive discus- sions at lunch about their choices for dates for the dance. Since this was 1984 and the age of liberation was at hand, girls finally got to do their share of asking guys out. After school, a frantic creature clutching paint bottles and brushes ran through the halls shrieking, ‘‘Out of the way, I've got a big bad headache!”’ Students wearing mismatched clothes, interesting buttons and unusual hats her- alded the arrival of one weird week. Yes, it was Homecoming 1984 and spirited Midlo students were in the peak of their unity. The week's events and activities at- tracted the students together to work on floats, banners, dance preparations and fi- nally to cheer on the hope of a victory in Friday night's game. Spirit Week, a continued tradition at Midlo, allowed enthusiasts to express their creativity with very unusual school attire. On Tuesday many students arrived at school wearing at least one, if not several of their favorite hats, while buried beneath a collage of their favorite buttons. Wednes- day, students strutted the halls in the latest western styles. Thursday, designated as Nerd Day, allowed Midlo students to re- veal some of their ‘‘less-refined”’ qualities. David Falls and history teacher, Mr. Gray, were among some of the more noteworthy nerds. Spirit Week’s concluding day found Midlo students going all out for spir- it, dressing in blue and gold and at times even extending these shades onto their faces and hair! Wednesday night's annual Powder Puff Football Game distinguished the girls from the women as the junior girls overtook the seniors, 6-O. During the Powderputt half- time, the Powderpuff King and Prince were crowned. Mark Wronkiewicz was named Powderpuff King and Brandon Cannaday accepted the Prince's crown. Homecoming Life 9 It was Homecoming Halttime And the Beat Went On By Friday afternoon's pep rally, a spe- cial kind of excitement filled Midlo’s halls as many students anxiously anticipated the weekend activities. On Friday night, Homecoming 1984 reached its peak. The stands vibrated and the spirit mounted as the Trojans hustled onto the new field ready to face the Monarchs of Meadow- brook. Despite interesting efforts, and a touchdown pass caught by Steve Som- mers, Midlo failed to overcome the Mon- archs, and the game ended in a frustrating 14-6 deteat. Before the game, long hours of work and creativity were displayed as the club floats paraded around the football field. The Midlothian International Language Club, for the first time in its history, took first place with the ‘Olympic Games Tra- dition” as its theme. FBLA placed a close second, and the Latin Club was recog- nized in third place. ja LANGUAGE CLUB STUDENTS represent some of the countries that participated in the events of the 1984 Olympics. MR.

The Class of 1986 chose Kristin Elliot, Julie Hulett and Meredith Donahue to represent their class. The sophomore princesses were Ginger Sou- thall, Christy Hodge and Kim Boerner. Princesses representing the freshmen class were Ashley Davis, Tammie Bartlett and Tracy Cardwell. Although Saturday's dance was not a real victory dance, the Homecoming spirit still soared high.

Seniors lucky enough to see their names on exam exemption lists exper- ienced a glow duplicated only by the sight of an actual diploma. In its years at Midlothian, the Class of 1985 had developed a unique identity Sara Brown, senior class secretary, de- scribed the class character. ‘Everyone is an individual,” she said, ‘but we can be unified when we need to be. It was our class who yelled for the forbidden pompon performances, and our class that read newspapers to protest the proper attitudes of the pep rallies. And it was our class who fought against the new rules of the school. Our class is one of a kind.” Seniors looking back over their final year had various thoughts. Some who glor- ied in senior freedom and wisdom de- clared, as Jenni Murray and Elizabeth Co- lucci did, that ‘To be a senior is the most educational and entertaining thing ‘cause you finally learn how silly you looked as a freshman.” Other students felt the year was a blend of future vision and nostalgia. Rob Tyler expressed the sentiments of the entire class when he said, ‘Overall, the final year of high school brings a hint of the future mixed with memories of the past.” PRCT “weGUESTS AT ROB MCCRANEY’S P. mixed and mingled as the for the clock to ring in the Wear.

Wor To combat the everyday pressures of studies and to en- liven their monotonous and schedules, many Midlo students found after-school rigid jobs in and around the newly expanding Midlothian area. Whether it was bagging gro- ceries. waitressing tables, cleaning the floors or working the cash register, students torced themselves to find ways to finance their weekend activi- ties. ‘Having fun isn't cheap,” mmented Kristine Gutleber. junior “Nowadays, you anywhere without i Some stu- lents, like senior Susan Cope made this discovery early in th | started working when I was in seventh grade because | knew I would need plenty of money for college.” Other students, however. be- lieved in thriving on the mo- ment and felt that “a five day work-week is financially equiv- alent to a two-day vacation on weekends.’ While the monetary benefits were attractive in other areas. One student noted that she had ‘fired fourteen times in one school year from fourteen different jobs after school.” The hours and the strenuous been work were often very rigid, and it was difficult to conform them with studies and activities in school. ‘In my opinion, uniforms are king Hard tor the Money the worst,’’ added senior Shan- non Viveiros who still has fre- quent nightmares about a pre- vious job experience where sickly orange polyester pant- suits were a must.’ Other stu- dents felt that the income taxes taken out of weekly paychecks were ‘ridiculous and a waste of time.” All these drawbacks, though, seemed meaningless when payday rolled around and students were seen waiting anxiously in lengthy bank lines. “I don't mind working after school,’’ commented sophomore Dev Granback. “'It gives me a chance to relax and take my mind away from school and studies.” KEVIN LACIVITA AND CHRIS WARD, chef’s apprentices, pause while preparing the evening's dessert specialty at Briarwood.

In the past were the roots which would make up the faces and spirit of Midlo today. the late 1960's when most Midlothian people came into being, the world was a rather 1essy conglomeration of war, ‘ips to outer space, and the 1ellow music which changed a generation. These were not problems to be considered by babies, however. The future students of Midlothian were more interested in strained prunes, clean diapers and soft, mushy laps on which to doze. That did not last long, however. The uncertainties of life were imminent and tiny Trojans had to learn to walk and talk and realize that liver was not halt so good as a lollipop. As these tots grew older, the trials became more demanding: shoes must be tied and kindergarten con- quered. teeth had to be brushed without eating the toothpaste. As these future Midlothian attendees began to assert their personalities, it became clear to which extra-curricular activi- ties these toddlers would lend their talents. Future drama par- ticipants acted out Bambi and The Three Bears for audiences which consisted of Mom and two teddy bears. Future NHS members were the ones who WwW m rR 5 constantly thought up new effi- cient ways of tying their shoe- laces, usually ending up flat on their faces when they tripped on a straggling end. Potential wrestlers sat on their brothers and sisters. Children who helped Mom bake cookies were the Home-Ec stars of 1984-85. Young kids who rolled around in little cars and said ‘‘Vroom, vroom” were the future race car drivers of Mid- lothian’s very own Charter Colony Parkway. In the faces t yesteryear lie the beginnings of Midlo-of-the-moment. T Lite Lull : . - Pa ONT OOS sae eae ee .

Because the new school had only one accessway, 537 ju- niors and seniors who rode to school were all trying to get in and out on the same road. This created traffic jams which stretched like automotive snakes from Midlothian Turn- pike all the way back to the school bus loop. Most students attributed the mess to poor Life Parking Lot planning. The problem stemmed trom the fact that the Charter Colony developers plan eventually to open a road onto Coalfield Road, which will ease the traffic problems. How- ever, these long-range plans did not help the students in 1984-85. To add insult to in- jury, midway through the year, students were forbidden to leave the parking lot before the buses, since the school buses were often late for their junior high schoo! runs. The discontent of the stu- dents became more obvious as the year went on. Every atter- noon the parking lot was the scene of a paintully disharmon- ous horn-blowing contest. Frustrated student drivers made frequent use of their car horns, turning the afternoon IF PUBLICITY WAS WHAT THE STUDENT BODY WANTED, they got it when TV8 newsmen ap- peared outside the school. Midlo't trattic jams had frustrated students undecided about whether to BEEP or WEEP traific jam into a symphony of bleeps and blares that left ear- drums ringing. Students talked of engineering a sitdown strike in front of the buses. Local tele- vision news cameras appeared several times to capture the peaceful protest on film, but it never happened. Students preferred to try and dodge buses and police cars that blocked the parking lot exits, speeding down the tiny road sometimes 60 mph in order to outrun possible pursuers. Mr. Olsen told of other prob- lems: “I’ve seen things I would never thought would happen,” he said, and went on to tell of a “crazy fool’’ who bypassed the long line of cars on Charter Colony Parkway by riding up the wrong side of the road, reaching the highway very TRYING TO MAKE A QUICK EXIT, Cars line up as school buses block each exit from the student | parking lot. quickly indeed. ‘It doesn’ seem fair,” howled one stu dent. ‘I have to be at work at 2:00 pm. and with this mess | won't even be out of the park- ing lot by 2:10 unless som nice person lets me out.” The- traffic jam also produced tar- dies in the morning, since po- lice stationed out on Midloth ian Turnpike held up long lines” of traffic to let the buses get. through. Despite the publicity given. to Midlo’s driving problems, and dozens of calls to the Mid- lothian Supervisor Joan Gir- one, no end to the problem seemed in sight. Students had two options for dealing with the aggravating situation: ‘You can either beep or weep,” ex- plained one junior resignedly, ‘and sometimes you do both.” Aine wt Sey IMPATIENTLY SITTING IN HIS CAR, Tom O’Donnell looks quite perturbed about the aggravating traffic line-up.

MEMBERS OF THE GIRLS TEN- NIS TEAM watch intently as their teammates finish their matches. Midlo Moved Outdoors An early March warm spell gave students their first taste of summer, and had the princi- pals vigorously patrolling the parking lots in search of poten- tial skippers. Students felt at least one version of the notori- ous spring fever and felt, like senior Chris Faigle, the long- ing for some place where ‘'It's green and smells good and | can eat Big Macs.” For Midlo- ites, warm weather meant a re- turn to the recreation spots from which fall and winter chills had driven them. The park and the river repre- sented favorite destinations for after-school and weekend jaunts. Students frequented the Pony Pasture, beyond Hugue- not Bridge, where the water moved slowly and the rocks were plentiful. Midlo river rats staked out spots atop the rocks and clung to them like brightly colored fungi. Richmond area parks lured students with promises of picnic turf, frisbee fields and creeks in which to dabble toes. Those students who wished to get back to na- ture visited Rockwood, Byrd, James River, and Forest Hill Parks. Maymont Park had the added bonus of a sizable pet- ting zoo for pet-deprived stu- dents who did not mind the less-than-delectable odors. As the weather grew warm- er, Midlo-ites found themselves munching lunches outside by the bus loop.

Reclining on a hot spring day, senior Pam Ad- ams noted that the sidewalks white surface reflected the sun's rays and ensured a supe- rior tan. Some Midlothian students with weak-willed or rebellious natures found the temptations of a nice day too much to resist. “I would prefer not to call it ‘skipping’ declared one hap- five demerits for each missed class. Most students waited to en- joy their schoolday outdoor ac- tivities after 1:45 p.m. when rock-hopping and park saun- ters were legal. “But,” de- clared sophomore Chery] Ha- ver sadly, ''1:45 seems to come a lot slower on a pretty day in May.” Outdoors Life 27 28 WITH PROM APPROACHING QUICKLY, Karen Petrasy and In- dia Galloway count the long- awaited tickets for the junior class. Student Life Prom Prep Prepping tor Paradise The few frenzied weeks be- fore prom were filled with ac- tivity for both the event's orga- nizers and its intended guests. Organizers found that they reached the heights of pres- sure about two weeks before the prom when decorations flooded in and sophomore servers and chaperones had to be confirmed. The actual deco- rating of Bellwood took only one visit and three hours on Friday, May 10. Much more time was spent atter school at Midlo where memory books had to be pieced together, and invitations and tickets had, painstakingly, to be made. Long hours also went into the planning of the 1985 prom fig- ure which with forty-nine clubs and forty-two couples required all the tactical strategy of a bat- tle plan. Intended guests had no set time for their pinnacles of prep- aration. Some couples had found their dresses and rented their tuxedos before April |. Other couples had not even found each other by May 5. Guys who delayed on tux rent- al, however, found that local tux renters ran out of tails quickly, a development which made some male prom goers overjoyed. Other prom pro- crastinators were deeply dis- turbed by this lost chance to wear what one grumpy junior guy was overheard to describe as ‘a stupid suit that someone forgot to cut off.” PUTTING ON THE FINAL TOUCH, Ginger Southall waits patiently as her corsage is pinned on by her date.

Prom 6® XN From his position at the punch bowl Todd Davidson saw it all and came to the con- clusion that ‘just about every- one had a terrific evening.” The occasion for which Midlo couples had gathered was Prom ‘85 and the situation was ‘Almost Paradise.” Prom-goers entering Bell- wood Cafe on the night of May 1 1 were greeted by grass-skirt- ed sophomore servers who gave kisses and leis to all who entered. Murals of flowers and palm trees also helped set an island tone. A traditional prom figure be- gan the evening. Forty-eight seniors and their dates, clad in seldom seen finery maneu- vered into a surprisingly recog- nizable ‘'85 . Eager to begin the dancing, seniors stood in formation while Prom King Mark Johnson and Prom Queen Mary Beth Staton were crowned and moved out onto the floor to lead the first dance. Paradise began to heat up as the tones of the Liz Marks band lured students to boogie. An obvious lack of air-condition- ing had steady streams of danc- ers making beelines for tables laden with punch bowls and hors'd’oeuvres. Sophomore servers Christy Hodge, Susan Watson, Cindy Weinhold, Eric Booker, Dennis Collins, Todd Davidson and Tim Hunt waited on thirsty upperclassmen. Some Midlo faculty mem- bers also attended the prom and commented on the student attire. ‘It's amazing to see the transformation that a tuxedo can work on a guy we usually only see in jeans and DEAD t- shirts,’ declared French teach- er Mrs. Debra O'Dell. Student attire was also on the minds of several girls who discovered to their horror that their dresses were not unique. For whatever reasons, stu- dents found Prom ‘85 memora- ble. “I quess,”” said senior Rich- ard Turner who smiled as he recalled the evening, ‘you could say that it was a great way to end a great year. TAKING TIME OUT FOR A SNOOZE, this couple found out that having a good time can be really exhausting. SWAYING TO THE MUSIC, Joyce Johnson and her date share a spe- cial moment during a slow dance.

When people met progress, the result was often Modern Inconveniences Even a sparkling new school that hadn't yet ac- quired a nasty aroma in the locker rooms could have its problems. The new Midloth- ian was no exception. In the planners’ attempts to make the school a high-tech gem, the building was booby- trapped with gadgets and giz- mos that all had some perfect- ly reasonable uses and some pertectly puzzling side ef- fects. The library in the old Mod- lothian had suffered greatly because of missing books. For whatever reasons, some inno- cent and some guilty, lots of books went out of the library without being checked out. Many of these books took long vacations which never brought them back home again. In the new school, that problem was solved. Any stu- dent who attempts to leave the library with an illegal book is stopped by a shrill beep which brings librarians running. Librarians declined to comment on the technol- ogy of the system other than to say as Mrs. James did, ‘I'm not going to tell a thing about it. You all are smart enough to figure it out.” The machine is just as silent on the subject. All it ever gives out is a long and embarrassing beeeep! Two other high tech won- ders inhabit Midlothian. One is the stainless steel hydraulic garbage flattener. This item occupies a room to itself called appropriately, ‘the trashroom.’’ Trashcans be- cane obsolete at Midlothian. Oscar the Grouch would have been furious. The other mechanical wonder is the fire alarm system. Not only are the alarm noises harsher and louder than a heavy metal rock concert but the doors between the halls were timed to slam shut at the first peal of the tire’s woe to the innocent student dented by a 200 lb. door. Another inconvenience of the new school was the last minute crushes in the crowd- ed hallways. Intersections at halls could be packed with over 150 students who all needed to get to aclass quick- ly. The only recommended way to get through was to stand close behind a large person as he or she bulldozed through the student seas. Crowding was also a problem on Charter Colony Parkway. In 1984-85 Midlothian ad- ministrators sold 537 parking decals. It was very frustrating to wait while student cars tried to maneuver in and out of school grouns on a road the width of a spaghetti strand. Undoubtedly the school was a better place because of high-tech innovation. Those students who doubted the benetits of the new machines just had to learn to accept the pits of progress along with the triumphs of technology.

Authentic swordplay and triumph over troubles characterized ROMEO AND JULIEL The auditorium was quiet except for a few sniffles, and there was little movement besides the occasional flash of a white han- kie in the audience. Romeo and Juliet were definitely dead, bringing to a close the last lively performance of the Drama Depart- ment'’s first production at the new school. Student director Jenni Murray and di- rector Katherine Baugher led a cast of characters in a traditional performance with some modern touches. The principal parts of Romeo and Juliet were played by Mark Gorman and Stephanie Gryder. Their steamy love scenes were not ham- pered at all by the fact that Romeo wore blue jeans rather than doublet and hose. Although Romeo's costume may not have been completely authentic, his swordplay certainly was realistic. Romeo had Mike Myers, a local fencing instructor, to thank tor that. His bi-weekly fencing les- sons had male cast members thrusting and THE FRIAR, PLAYED BY MIKE FARA- BAUGH, implores Romeo, Mark Gorman’s character, to behave rationally while Juliet’s nurse, played by Elizabeth Colucci, worriedly looks on. ON THE NIGHT WHEN ROMEO AND JULIET MET, the Capulets were hosting a party; and here, merry guests led by Jennifer Jenkins, who played a partygoer, and Todd Scudder who played her partner, enjoyed spirited dancing. PROFESSIONAL FENCING INSTRUCTOR MIKE MYERS’ bi-weekly lessons in sword hangling helped make scenes like this one, a brawl between Scotti Smith a Capulet, and Scott Street a Montague, realistic. parrying in a convincing fashion. Romeo and Juliet met their tragic ends in four separate performances, two of which were at night. The other two were matinees, one for Midlothian students and another for Clover Hill freshmen who were involved with the play in their English classes.

Four Midlo band students were selected to participate in a 21-day tour of Europe, presenting instrumental concerts and cho- rus shows with other qualified students from all parts of the United States. Kit Liz- ard, Linda Church, Nancy Welder and David Pemberthy were all chosen to par- ticipate after submitting a tape to a director who made his decision on the basis of their singing and playing performance. These Midlo students performed for audiences in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Aus- tria, France and Italy.

Lara Crowder summarized many stu- dent travelers’ opinions in saying that, “The experience was really incredible. The exposure to the language and the cul- ture was so beneficial.

The book swap was one of several ideas put into effect during the month of December, designated by Governor Charles Robbas the official ‘Reading Month” The swap began when students in Mrs. Stewart's reading classes made post- ers to advertise the idea. EllaBeth Bamp- ton, Susan Cope, Kristine Cutleber and Janet Long headed the activities and asked all interested persons to bring in any old books in order to exchange them for new ones. The swap was set up out in the com- mons area December 3-7 during both lunches and was manned entirely by stu- dents. ‘The whole project was really success- ful, commented Mrs. Stewart, the reading teacher and sponsor of the month's activi- ties. ‘The outcome was much more than we expected,’ she continued. ‘There is a chance that the activity will become an an- nual event because of the positive re- sponse.’ The swap was not limited to stu- dents; however, faculty, cafeteria and jani- torial help and office personnel also participated in the program. Overall, the month's activities accom- plished much more than what was pre- viously anticipated. Students were encour- aged to read and saw the importance of reading as part of their school activities.

Atter several weeks of de- tailed plans and correspon- dance, Mrs. Debra O'Dell or- ganized the final preparations for a group of twenty-two french students and an English teacher from their school to come to the Midlothian area for three weeks. All the students and the teacher were individ- ually hosted for their entire stay with Midlo students and their families.

These two foreign anguage clubs joined forces to offer a variety of cultural activi- ties to Midlo students studying French, German, Latin, and Spanish at all levels. Language Week activities began on Monday when a pan- el of foreign exchange students attending various high schools in Chesterfield County were brought to Midlothian to an- swer questions about their dif- ferent cultures and lifestyles. These high school students were all participants in year- long study-abroad programs here in the United States and were often called upon to visit other area high schools. Stu- dents from Spain, Germany, Switzerland, Brazil, Venezuela and Finalnd were all very inter- ested in learning about Ameri- can high school life as well. Question-answer sessions dur- ing their language classes proved to be informative and often very humorous. With an embarrassed, but honest look, Adriana Guitierrez confessed that she “preferred her own Brasilian cuisine over the popular American junk food that everyone eats.’ The ad- justment to the food was just one of the many “culiure the students were faced with upon their arrival to shocks”’ Academics Language Week CHOWING DOWN!

Soph- omore Michael Farabaugh not- ed that, ‘the victory only proved that the Spanish are not as lazy and siesta-oriented as everyone thinks they are.” Mrs. Bonnie Montgomery, the newest addition to Midloth- ian’s modern foreign language department, organized Friday afternoon's activities: an after- school session on the Russian language and their cultures. Mrs. Montgomery, presently teaching German, French and Spanish, astounded Midlo stu- dents with her fluency in the Russian language and knowl- edge oi their customs. - 1 thought the class was fascinat- ing, commented senior John Hodder. “I think students should become more involved in foreign languages beyond the basic French, Spanish and German.” Many weeks and afternoons of preparation were highlight- ed on Saturday evening in the open and closed cafeterias with the twelfth annual cele- bration of the Tasters’ Supper. Foreign language students, whether they were convinced, bribed, or forced, brought a variety of foreign dishes to the dinner. Student coordinator for MILC, Kristine Gutleber, spent long hours designing posters and arranging the floor plan of the annual event. ‘The abun- dance of food we received this year was absolutely incredible. I had never seen so much food in all my lite,’ she added. After several hours of con- tinual rotation of the entrees, he Tasters’ Supper began to draw to a close. The memories eft behind, though, will contin- ue to leave a vivid impression on many students. In addition to the tangible reality of the mounds of unclaimed dishes and pans, leftovers of the din- ner were sent home with any and every interested person. The success of the event was directed toward this year’s three scholarship recipients: Meredith Matthews, Jeff Sties, and Cammie Seymour. These honored students will direct these funds toward a summer abroad homestay study pro- gram this year. Junior Kristine Gutleber concluded that “the organiza- tion of the Tasters’ Supper this year with the help of the teach- ers really made the evening unforgettable. In retrospect, | would say that Language Week 1985 was a cultural ex- perience you shouldn't have missed.’ JUNIOR KRISTINE GUTLEBER is caught in the act of deciding whether to serve more French bread or consume it herself.

Both organiza- tions were unique at Midloth- an in that they were service or- ganizations whose member- ships were selected on the basis of academic achieve- ments. To be inducted into ei- ther society, the potential tapee must maintain a 3.6 cumulative average, have a least 75% teacher approval, and partici- pate in at least on extracurricu- lar activity for JHS, and at least two for NHS.

Organizers Nancy Welder and Lisa Enders over- saw the tasks of scheduling stu- dent donors, obtaining the auditorium for the day-long event, and helping to set up equipment. Nancy Welder spoke of the blood drive atter- wards. ‘It was overall very suc- cesstul, I think. Why is it though, that the only people who are really enthusiastic about giving blood are the ones who are underage or un- derweight?”’ A total of 95 pints of blood were collected by the Richmond Metropolitan Blood Serivce for distribution to area hospitals.

New Notes The Midlothian Chorus De- partment, under the skillful di- rection of Ms. Michelle Greg- ory, sported a variety of new additions to the 1984-85 Cho- ral Program. The highly techni- cal sound system along with the larger classroom surroundings were an encouragement to many Midlo choral members. The Music Department, di- vided into four groups, partici- pated in numerous activities throughout the school year. The Mixed Chorus, consisting primarily of Freshmen and be- ginning students, as well as the fadrigals and the Treble Cho- rus attended a ‘'Festival’’ re- gional chorus competition where the Midlo chorus mem- bers received scores of ‘‘excel- lent. The Show Choir, ‘Just For Show had the honor of attend- ing a Blue Ridge Invitational Competition in Lynchburg. Even though Midlo performers were not among the highest scorers, the honor of being se- lected as one of eight schools from the mid-Atlantic region was satisfying enough. In addition to special spring and Christmas concerts, Bac- ceremonies and im caleaureate other yearly events, the selec- tion of All-Regional and All- State Chorus is an honor that all choral members anticipate Unfortunately, however, only certain exceptionally talented students are chosen to attend. This year, All-Regional Choral Members included John Hod- der, Brian King, Richard Turn- er, Leslie Hayward, Elizabeth Gunn, Sarah Cave and An- drea Detweiler who all skillfully performed before a panel of judges at the University of Richmond. Sarah Cave, Eliza beth Gunn and Johnny Hod- der also were selected to repre- sent Midlo in the All-State Competition.

Though quizzes, tests, and ex- ams were still a part of class, the stress and strain of a normal schedule disappeared. ‘We work hard for our grades,’ commented one student, “but everybody's friendly, the teachers are very helpful, and here we have our professional certificates as a goal.” Midlo Tech students ad- mitted to some drawbacks. Some grumbled about the bus ride which, when timed, was found to be ''28 minutes and 51 seconds each way.’ Others commented on the loss of school identity and the lack of recognition that the Tech Cen- ter received at such an aca- demic school as Midlothian.

Melodies for the musical were orchestrated by choral director Michelle Gregory and Piano conductor Douglas Kellner. Senior John Hodder, who portrayed Freddy Eynsford- Hill, Eliza's persistent but wimpy admirer, commented that ‘The performance was a real challenge and a lot of fun ow PLAYING AN ELEGANT ELIZA DOOLITTLE, Sara Cave listens to Mark Gorman discuss Eliza’s pos- sibilities for the future. Academics Spring Play for both the actors and ac- tresses as well as the chorus. | think it was one of the finest musicals Midlo has seen in a while.’ The play’s only major hitch came in the difficulty in mastering what one sopho- more actor referred to as ‘'that funky dialect.” The props and costumes were made and designed by the drama club. Audiences were amazed by the extraordi- nary richness and variety of the costumes, particularly the black and white satin dresses of the aristocratic ladies at Ascot. Audiences left the audito- rium humming such tunes as “Wouldn't It Be Loverly,”’ and “Get Me To The Church On Time.” The twenty-eight mem- ber cast, left behind, celebrat- ed the conclusion of yet an- other drama performance with the traditional cast party.

Butler Bampton — The Man, His name is Jim Bampton but they called him Rauol. He was the president of the class of 1985, and he added a touch of weirdness to a school that ap- preciated such things. Jim's an- tics enlivened classrooms, sen- ior class meetings, SCA speech sessions, and a countywide telecast of the Battle of the Brains. ‘So many people get uptight about other people beind odd,” lamented Jim. Jim also commented on his respect for individuality and linked it to the attitudes of classmates to- wards weekend activities. ‘Too the Myth many folks go along with ev- eryone else; there's too heavy an emphasis on drinking and getting drunk. What lay ahead tor this noncomformist — “College,” said Jim, ‘‘may- be something military. The Air- force Academy has been a tra- dition in my family.

That famous bear-without-hair would have found several allies among the senior swimmers and individ- ualists who, for whatever rea- son, shaved their heads. Patrick Brundage, Will Fitz- hugh, John Lewis, and Jeff Utsch all adopted the semi- scalped look because of their swimming interests. ‘It may have something to do with giv- ing us faster times since less hair provides less water dis- placement,” said Patrick, a physics butt. The swimmers ad- mitted also that this theory was possibly false. “It’s more like something swimmers do ‘just because’, said John sensibly. Joe Boisneau also appeared several times during the year with his head trimmed back to just the faintest fuzz. Known for his individualistic views, Joe at- tributed his basic baldness to a dislike for the conventional hairuct. The actual shaving be- came a sort of ritual for the swimmers. ‘Before a meet we would all gather round with the trimmers and shave our heads.”’ Did they ever go so far as to use a razor blade to get rid of every bit of hair? ‘‘Not usual- ly, declared Patrick solemly. ‘There's a big difference be- tween being shaved and being Sain via Monty Dise: Lawrence Hardy Dean: President 11, 12; Basketball 10-12, Co-Captain; Golf 9; Battle of the Brains 12; Governor's School 12; NHS 11, 12; FBLA 10; Jefferson Book Award 11.

SOFTBALL PLAYER HEIDI FLOOD rounds the bases to score one more for Midlo and help de- feat the opposition. THE MEMORIES MAY NOT BE SO FOND for Sarah Cave of the spirit day when she appeared in “nerdly” glory. The End As the year woreon,itbegan after graduation. to dawn on seniors that 1984- Hard-pressed to remember 85 was really their last year of | the class schedules and activi- conventional schooling. Col- _ ties of other years, seniors con- lege applications, exam ex- centrated on making memories emptions, and job placement for ‘84-85. Homecoming helped the realization that the 1984, the senior prom, and end of high school life was graduation made for many ear. Sentimental seniors grew good remembrances, but some misty-eyed as they hoarded of the most memorable mo- “dear old Midlo’’ memories in ments were seemingly every- preparation for the departure day occurrences. 70 Seniors Sheri Ann Enders: German Club 9; MILC 10: Track 9-11; Solidarity 11; DECA 12; FBLA 10, 11; FHA 12.

MILC TET: Marvelous Music “It's just another part of our friendship,’ said Robert Tyler, in reference io The Plan, a band which is formed by him- self, Ray Adams, and junior Mickey Calhoun. These three students, Robert with synthesiz- ers, Ray with his drums, and lickey with his guitar began olaying together as a hobby on he weekends; and as the three became better, the hobby turned profitable. The band began to play for parties and dances such as the May perfor- mance at a St. Edwards Church Dance. ‘We play for fun — if we get paid, even better. It's not a prerequisite, but it’s = + O Seniors 1 nice.’ The band practiced most weekends, playing the music of The Police, U2, Rush, the Bea- tles and as Ray Adams said, ‘whatever we feel we can han- dle. We even write some origi- nals.’ ‘Tl don't think any of us seri- ously believe that we will be on world tour in ten years. I don't even know about ten days from now. It’s one day ata time, very casual but very much fun.” PRACTICING THEIR MUSIC TO- GETHER wsa a regular part of each weekend for the three mem- bers of The Plan. Stephan M.

The PSAT, taken by all the juniors is a standard measure that is used to evaluate the in- telligence level of the college- bound student. The scores are compared on a national scale where the top 1 10 of 1% scores are named National Merit Finalist Winners. Chris Payne, Chris Faigle and Nancy Welder were among these fi- nalists named nationwide. _Several other Midlothian stu- dents were also recognized as National-Merit Semi-Finalists and received a certificate for their achievement.

A year of undiluted joy would be against class policy. 1984-85’s grump topic was the senior courtyard. The senior courtyard repre- sented one of those triumphs turned failures, not altogether unknown in Midlo history. Sen- iors welcomed the idea of an eating place all their own; and after negotiations concluded, the enclosed space between the closed cafeteria and the art room was chosen.

HELPING THEMSELVES TO THE POST-AS- SEMBLY REFRESHMENTS AND HORS- DOUEVRES, these Midlo seniors enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere of the reception. SENIOR BANQUET, BACCALAUREATE, CLASS NIGHT THE CLASS OF 1985 BEGAN THE TRADITION: GRADUATION 1985 The Midlothian High School Con : bined Choirs provided the music, a selection of hymns by Handel and Mozart. Senior Class Chaplain Julie Fauth delive red the meditation, apt- ly describing the divided feelings of graduates with a quotation from The Class of 1985 was destined for distinction. Of all the sixty-one classes which had passed through Midlothian on to bigger things, the Class of 1985 was the first graduat- ing class at the new location. The setting of new traditions played a great part not onlyinthe graduation ceremony itself, but also in the ac- tivities which led up to it. As in the years past, the first sen- ior activity came in the form of a banquet held in the gym of the Salis- bury Presbyterian Church. Seniors brought lasagna or spaghetti for supper, and their pasta dishes served double duty as their tickets to the banquet. After a hearty chow ses- sion, banquet attendees settled back to hear the legacies of the Last Will and Testament delivered by Sarah Brown and Chris Faigle and the ex- pectations of the Prophecy. The next commencement event ar- Seniors Graduation rived on the warm and humid first Sunday in June. The event was Bac- calaureate and students gathered to sport caps and gowns for the first time and to gain graduate wisdom. MAKING THE MEMORIES AT MIDLOTHIAN SPECIAL ONES, Mr. Francis Poates was an important part of many senior activities, in- cluding the annual senior banquet. “The Prisoner of Shiloh”: gained my freedom with a sigh.” Mr. Sam Salvia of St. Edwards Catholic Church made the Bacca- laureate Address. He first told of his troubles in finding a suitable theme for his address. Seniors listened at- tentively while Mr. Salvia discussed responsibility, the influence of par- ental guidance, and the importance “Even I of taking care of yourself and the people around you. Afterwards, the — seniors filed out of the church and © chatted and mingled with friends before rushing home to wash their dressy clothes for the next day.

During the day many girls carried the traditional senior bouquet of daisies tied with © blue and gold ribbons, trying often unsuccessfully to juggle their posies with heavy pre-exam loads of books. Class Night, held in the audito- rium, opened with a welcome by Class President Jim Bampton. Sen- iors were in marvelous moods, dressed in fine duds and honoring the best and the brightest of their ranks. After faculty department awards, Louis Jones and Jenna Gumm read the Class History. They drew on old memories from kinder- garten all the way to middle school and more recent ones from high school. John Breslin’s youthful an- tics, Rebecca Rice’s delinquent ac- tivities, and Mrs. Key’s math class were all dredged up for nostalgic chuckles. A poignant moment in the pro- gram came when, during scholar- ship awards, the announcement of a FILING INTO THE BACCALAUREATE PRO- CESSION, seniors were introduced to the tri- als and tribulations of wearing a cap and gown. Richard Duggan Scholarship brought everyone in the assemblage to their feet for a standing ovation. The scholarship was to be awarded to a student showing insight into po- litical thinking and current events. Rob Tyler was chosen for the schol- arship by a panel of teachers, includ- ing Mr. Duggan himself. Superlatives, those honorary titles for students who were recognized by their peers for excelling in areas ranging from flattery to brain pow- er, were announced by Robert Tyler and Julie Fauth. After Class President Jim Bamp- ton handed over the burdens of his office to rising Senior Class Presi- dent, Scott Rinaldi, the evening came to an end. Seniors walked out of the auditorium to find punch, cookies, and ham biscuits provided by the faculty for their palate plea- sure. The Hassle of the Tassle The morning of Graduation Day dawned with bits of blue sky and thick grey clouds moving quickly across the sky. Graduating students had little time to savor the peculiar mix of pain and joy of pre-gradu- ation waiting. The 10:30 A.M. time for commencement exercises left students little time even for “school’s out snoozing.”’ Sleepy seniors gathered in the halls on either side of the audito- rium to be bullied into line. Prob- lems such as which side to hang the tassle on and how to affix the cap firmly on the head were discussed by patiently waiting graduates-to-be. Finally the dignified march out to the field began. Parents and well- wishers lined the walk into the sta- dium, flashing cameras and big ADDRESSING HIS FELLOW CLASS MEM- BERS, Salutatorian Larry Dean speaks on the importance of a desire to learn. EVEN THOUGH THE EXPECTED SHOWERS DID NOT COME, the strong winds were enough for these restless seniors. Seniors Graduation smiles. Two by two, seniors ap- proached their seats and then stood while the Reverend Mr. Chancellor Hamilton of Mount Pisgah Method- ist Church delivered the invocation, reminding the seniors to “forever celebrate’ the actuality of their graduation. Smiling seniors silently promised to do the best they could. Salutatorian Larry Dean made his speech on the importance of keep- ing an open mind and the necessities of remaining ever ready to learn more. Quoting Richard Bach’s J u- sions, Larry proclaimed solemly, “What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the Master calls a butter- fly.” Valedictorian Cathy Mason ex- pounded on what she termed an out- standing fact in the graduate’s life: change. Assistant Principal Gregory Bis ici, ¥ pried by ‘io 1 4 ets , Ate ati : ? vie Wd. Hulcher and Principal Frances W. Poates then began to call out stu- | dent names and hand out diplomas.

Seniors watched while ev- eryone from Billy Abato to And Yowell received a diploma and a hearty handshake and then re- turned to his seat, moving his tassel to the eft side. When it was over, caps flew inte | the air and graduate shouts of hap- | piness shattered eardrums. ‘Twelve : years of study had culminated in this ceremony thus ending what | Reverend Hamilton had earlier | termed “the hassle of the tassle.” THE LONG ROAD So many years So many things said and done.

Headed by prom chairpersons Wendy Pember and Cammie Seymour, a group of ten girls spent months in preparation for ‘Almost Paradise.’ Efforts began early in the tall when the committee faced the perplexing question of a band. Members of the mu- sic committee had an interest- ing time as they trekked around the city listening criti- cally to the tunes of various groups. Students who attended the prom would want the good dancing music and quality sound to which the price of the class dues entitled them. Bear- ing this in mind, the Liz Marks Band was chosen and contract- ed for the night of Saturday, May 11. The prom committee had several thousand dollars to work with. Not only did the band have to be paid for, but also sophomore server cos- tumes, decorations, the rent for Bellwood Cafe, and refresh- ments needed attention. The responsibilities for obtaining these prom necessities did not seem to bother committee member Karen Petrasy, ‘'It's just like grocery shopping,”’ she said. ‘Only it’s on a much bigger scale.”’ As the prom approached, committee activity increased and trips to Bellwood became more frequent. There were, after all, decorations, tables, and other details to be { pared. All the while, the theme and decorations tor the prom were kept highly secret. That's the part that I like best,”’ said smiling chairperson Wen- dy Pember. “'It’s like knowing what's in a present before it’s opened.” Dynamic Duos The old saying goes that somewhere in the world, there is a twin for every person. Eight students in the junior class did not have to look the world over for theirs. Brandon and Chris Canady, Kevin and Kenneth Parker, Debbie and Tim McDermott, and Everett and Earl Rasnake were all twins in the junior class. Not all of them had the friend.’ Most of Midlothian’s twins did not feel that way at all. “It's a pain,’ said Kevin Parker. “Yeah, agreed Kenneth Parker. The Rasnakes and the McDermotts also said that they would prefer not to be twins. But at least no one expects us to dress alike anymore,” com- mented Everett Rasnake. Brandon and Chris Canaday school seeing double, howev- er. Debbie and Tim McDermott did not encounter the confu- sion often associated with be- ing a twin, namely mistaken identities and probing ques- tion from non-twins.

Friends of the pair remarked on how well the two got along together. ‘We even go out with the same group of people sometimes,’ stated Brandon. ‘Being a twin does not take away from our individuality,” commented one grinning but anonymous twin, it just makes more of a good thing.” ’ SEEING DOUBLE?

His motto seemed to be the old saying, Practice makes perfect,’ and under his direction the junior girls gave this phrase new meaning. Practices were seri- ous business and included sweaty exercises and strategy sessions. If players missed more than a few practices, they were kicked off the team. The roughness and dirty nature of the game caused periodic fits of despair. ‘I can't believe that some people actually do this for a living,” announced one weary junior. After a week of OO Juniors eniors strenuous practice, though, the juniors were ready to take on their rivals. The night of the Powder Putt Game was fair and semi-warm. Perhaps encouraged by the well-dressed and spirited male “cheerleaders,’’ the juniors out-passed, out-ran, and out- maneuvered the senior girls. Denise Menne deserved t he gameball since her brilliant touchdown made the winning score.

They went slow- ly at first because the sprained back and hurt knee acquired by members testified to the pains of inexperience. These setbacks could stop forever those unfamiliar with the joys of breakdancing, but nothing stops the dedicated Bodyr- ocker.

Grady combined bouncing energy and an enormous smile to bring out all the spirit the sophomore class had to offer. “T love pep rallies,’’ enthused about everybody in the class three or four times a day,”’ said a fellow classmate. ‘Anybody around her can't help but smile with her.” In addition to her so- cial schedule, Grady was ac- tive in MILC and the Drama Club. She confessed that dra- ma was her favorite energy out- Grady. “I’m so proud of the sport teams and cheerleaders.

She explained that ‘sometimes I have bonked people on the head when | have been really excited and hyper.” let because it ‘‘makes use of all my hyperness.

The new gymnasium was an at- tractive addition to the new school, but as sophomore Todd Flournoy said in a less -than- thrilled tone, ‘‘“Gym is still gym and we still have to dress out.” What makes “dressing out’ unappealing? The change into gym attire often found students creating their own gymwear styles, contrary to Chestertield County policies.

A group of girls traveled the halls dressed in flourescent pants and multi- ple layers of clothes that, if worn by themselves, would have shocked the entire stu- dent population. They called themselves the ‘‘Madonna Club.” Patterning themselves after the singer Madonna, they collectively attempted to assert — heir individuality. “We were originally prep- pies,’ stated one madonna. “But these unusual clothes show that we've evolved trom the traditional state.’’ Another less philosophic madonna sim- ply declared, “It's fun looking gooty.”’ The sophomore class fea- Sophomores The Madonna Club tured such prominent madon- nas as Kim Jones, Cheryl Ma- son, Hilary Smith, Laura Smith. Their gravity-detying hair and intriguing attire caused great comment among their class- mates.

ONE OF THE MOST DIFFICULT ADJUSTMENTS for Monacan transplant to make may have been the overcrowded, highly con- gested parking lot. Transplanting students is a painful process. Students are required to pull up any roots they may have set down and reatfix them at a new school. They leave behind favorite friends and familiar teachers. The sophomore class of 1984- 85 at Midlo contained many students who underwent this agonizing activity, most for the second time. ‘‘We were first split from our friends in the eighth grade when some of us went to Monacan and some of us went to Midlothian. After getting used to Monacan in our freshman year, we were split again. Some of my friends stayed at Monacan and some of them were transferred with me to Midlothian.” These transfer students were helped by the physical similari- ties between Monacan and Midlothian. Being familiar with the layout of Monacan actually made them better able to man- uever than those students used to the layout of the old Midloth- ian. Reunions with old friends also made the transplants feel Brian Vonderharr Cathy Wade Rob Wade Alison Walek James Warren Scott Warrick Everett Watkins Susan Watson Joseph Webb Chris Weddington Cindi Weinhold John Wetlaufer Renee Whalen Molly Whitehurst Elizabeth Whitley Suzanna Whitmer Lori Wielkewicz Ellen Wightman Christine Wiley Carey Williams Paula Williams Rachel Williamson Dorothy Winters Richard Wood Keith Woodyard Mary Wrenn Chris Yates Lora Yowell more at home. It took several months for the transfer students to completely adjust to their new surround- ings. Along the way they learned to cope with such Midlo peculiarities as traffic jams along the school parkway and a school clock set five min- utes fast. Most transfer students handled their experience easi- ly, some even ended up liking it. “I only wish,” said sopho- more transplant Kelly Thorn- burg, ‘that I could have spent all four years at Midlothian.” Sophomores 115 = Y VH VVPHHMAWN Freshman Add Class NEEL, So ... what else is new?” FRESHMAN CLASS OF Lisa Roberge, Kent Po r Inga Dickerson and Rucker discuss upcomi ties. eceived a resounding “We are!’ from the Class of 1988 as hese incoming freshmen en- ered the unfamiliar walls of the 1ew school. Unlike past years, these 472 freshmen were not he only ones seen wandering around during the first few weeks of school. Freshman Shelly Lucas commented that ‘It was neat that we weren't the only ones who didn’t know how to find our classes and how to get back to our locker after 5th'’’ Upperclassmen also were able to experience those freshmen frustrations in the new environment. Accounting for nearly one third of the tota student population, the Class o 1988 faced a challenging tran- sition from the middle schoo curriculum to the difficult higl school schedule. These new- comers, however, maintained the Midlo tradtion and over- came the obstacle with ease.

SPIRIT SURGING, MR. OVER- TON proves that he’s “the crazy man just trying to make the freshmen into a class.” Overton Fires Up Freshmen 3 2 3 Being a freshman can be a bewildering experience. Mr. Richard Overton, earth sci- ence teacher, wrestling coach, and spirit booster extraordin- aire, understood that. Fresh- men at Midlo have traditionally been characterized by their nervous scuttling movement through the halls and their mel- low, spiritless behavior at pep rallies. Mr. Overton explained that these are normal freshmen tendencies: ‘‘The freshman class does nothing,” he said. “They feel very intimidated. | am trying to get the freshies tired up!” To accomplish this difficult task, Mr. Overton used innova- tive and imaginative methods. Students of all classes will re- member the sight of Mr. Over- ton flashing signs and bounc- ing up and down with the force of his enthusiasm at pep rallies. In the interests of spirit, stu- dents in Mr. Overton's fresh- man classes were charged with producing posters and signs to promote freshman activity at games and pep rallies. ‘My sixth period class wanted to paint me blue and gold for the last pep rally,” Mr. Overton said. ‘I wasn't as thrilled about that idea as they were.” 1984-85 was Mr. Overton's first year at Midlothian. He taught previously at Meadow- brook and Thomas Dale. A gra- duate of Arizona University, he tirst started teaching as a phys- ical education though he now teaches sci- ence, Mr. Overton has contin- ued his athletic work by taking on the responsibilities of head wrestling and head track coach at Midlo. ‘When | was younger instructor. Al- I had some good coaches who kept me out of trouble by get- ting me into sports. If I can help some kid like that, then all this will be worth it.” In the meantime he plans to continue his crusade to bring the freshmen to life. Yes,” said Mr. Overton grinning madly, “I'm the crazy man just trying to make the freshmen into a class.

In 1984-85 principal Francis W. Poates and Assistant Principals Thornton Carter and Gregory Hulcher accepted the respon- sibilities for approximately 1450 students every day. These responsibilities included everything from trip clearance to discipline. Like all able ad- ministrators, they were also adept at being in all the right places at all the right times, much to the chagrin of the cor- rupt student. With a familiar chuckle, Mr. Poates commented that ’Midlo students are among the best in Chesterfield County.’’ He proudly speaks of his years at Midlothian as ‘‘some of the fin- est years of my life.’’ Mr. Carter seemed to agree when he stat- ed that he accepts each day as a challenge over which to tri- umph. Unlike most of the faculty's duties, the administrators’ re- sponsibilities do not end at 2:45 p.m. The familiar faces of these three men appeared at athletic games, drama produc- tions, and various other extra- curricular activities. Better fa- cilities at the new school made possible an endless number of after school activities.

Office aides are also used to help out with typing, filing, and copying. For many Midlothian stu- dents, these four years are only a part of a long-term education- al plan. With the help of several experienced guidance coun- selors, students were able to make important decisions about their school curriculum, careers, goals and other post- graduation plans. Mrs. Phyllis Jones, Mrs. Dorothy Voight, and Mrs. Judy Goodwin worked to help students make their individual decisions based on talents and academic abilities. While Mrs. Joanne Barnes, guidance secretary, at- tempted to keep order in the busy office. The cooperative at- titude of the guidance depart- ment was characteristic of all the administrative faculty who went out of their way to make lite better for Midlothian stu- dents. MR.

His 1ame is Buddy Terrell, and he had a revolutionary effect on Midlothian’s art department. Mr. Terrell kept students at- tentive by a method far more compelling than a demerit pad: he interested them. Some days he showed up in unusual costumes: a samurai complete with pink kimono and topknot hairdo; a wicked looking crea- ture dangling fake shrunken heads from his waistline: and at Christmas time, a jolly, shorts- clad St. Nicholas. ‘'It’s all a mat- ter of morale,’ explained Mr. Terrell. ‘If students have good morale then they get a good education.” Mr. Terrell was a force in the local art world. He showed his work at local galleries and at Johnston Willis Hospital. Though he works with many different types of art, sculpture is his favorite medium.

Mr. Terrell’s unusual still life had students peering through art room windows and silently wondering about the amazing arrangements com- bining tombstones, bicycle bits and eggplants. His metamor- pheses at pep rallies into such personalities as Superman and Caveman produced even more interest. ‘I’m helping to develop atmosphere at Mid- lothian,”’ said Mr. Terrell, smil- ing. ‘And because I'm a child at heart, this is the way I'm do- Wictit — SPORTING ANOTHER UNUSU- AL SPIRIT WEEK GET-UP, Mr. Terrell shows his school spirit and gets the attention of his classes with his weird attire.

Routinely Dedicated “Enthusiasm, spirit, and a lot of hyper-energy are three es- sential qualities of a pom-pon member,’ noted senior captain Renee Saunders. ‘Without ev- ery one of these ... it’s really difficult.” The schedule of a pom-pon squad member seem desgined to wear out all but the hardiest. Pom-pon began in the sum- mer when all squad members were required to attend a four- day pom-pon camp and a five- day band camp. Both camps provided Midlo’s nine member squad with a chance to learn new steps and routines while working with girls from other area schools. This effort gave squad members a taste of the rigors that awaited them in the upcoming football and basket- ball seasons. Besides creative perfor- mances at afternoon rallies, the pom-pons traveled to competi- tions with the band. Compet- ing with the band required squad members to learn basic training such as marking time and executing flawless ‘‘about faces.’ The four select girls who made up Midlothian’s major- ettes also knew a great deal about time and dedication. They, too, traveled to competi- tions with the band, in addition to the dramatic halt-time shows featuring fiery batons. Hours of hardworking practice were the price of near perfection, but as senior Micheaux Martin deci- selyly commented, ''It was well worth it.’ Auxiliaries Clubs 14] 14 2 Clubs Auxiliaries Flag Squad: Front Row: Chris Meincke, Pegee Clapin, Mandy Whitehouse, Tammy Remaklus, Janelle Logan.

The Honor Guard Drill Team of 1984-85 had ten members and two alternates. Captains Debbie Marks and Cindy Sizer, along with spon- sor Mr. Hale, supervised nu- merous practices which began early in the summer and never let up after that. Team mem- bers saw the results of their practices of competitions all over the South. In a tourna- ment at East Tennesee State University, the team won the trophy for Girls’ Drill.

Under the direction of junior transfer Mandy Whitehouse, fourteen flag triwlers spent long hours perfecting their routines. ‘Mandy really makes all the practices and workouts worthwhile,’’ commented Minda Morgan. ‘‘We make mistakes but we always learn from them.

A bleary-eyed stare and the lack of matching clothes indicated creatures whose thoughts were far above the bounds of cream- colored school walls and speckled gray linoleum floors. Those students sought literary ideals and sacrificed life, love, and liberty in pursuit of such. The 1984-85 Trojan Year- book Staff tossed an unusually diverse array of people into a room approximately the size of an unrolled Ho-Ho. The result was an orderly pandemonium which lasted the entire year, through. Under the direction of Editors Chris Farabaugh and Duckie Dailey, who were in turn under the direction of sponsor Phyllis Miles, the staff fought, ate, wrote, and drew their way to the final deadline. (See editor's page) Warning: Contents Under Pressure threatened the cover of the 1985 literary magazine. Produced by Ms. Jeanne Hil- debrand’s third period cre- ative writing class, the concoc- tion of poetry, short stories, re- cord reviews and ink drawings made its traditional review in May. ‘We had lots of out-of-class participation this year,’’ stated Ms. Hildebrand. ‘I believe that people deserve a chance to be published.’’ With this in mind, Editor-in-Chief Tammy Wrenn set her poetry Co-Editors Sarah White and Wendy Degroat, and her prose Co-Editors Hi- lary Smith and Jeannette Gaz- zara to choosing the best con- tributions to be included in the magazine.

OFFERING A MESSAGE of con- tinued health and good cheer, SADD members Tammy Remak- lus and Margaret Richmond end- ed the Christmas program witha safety message. pes Mater LYrisbr BOTH STUDENTS AND TEACHERS gravitated to Amnesty International displays which featured pleas for the rescue of political prisoners. A SPEAKER FOR SADD relied on graphic displays to add emphasis to his anti-drunk driving message. Reaching out to Midlo students New Club Additions Inspired by Midlo’s new sur- roundings, students and teach- ers worked together to initiate several new activities into Mid- lo’s after-school schedule. With the addition of several hun- dred new students to Midlo’s population, many people felt new clubs and activities were a necessity. The Students Anti- Drunk Driving Council (SADD) was one of these new clubs. Sharon Eades, along with a few other deeply interested per- sons, organized SADD to deter students from driving while un- der the influence of alcohol. ‘Students at Midlothian are not aware that the lethal combina- tion of drinking and driving en- dangers not only their own lives, but also the lives of their friends,’ Sharon commented. With the guidance of co-spon- sors Mrs. Drake and Mrs. Bo- clair, a positive interest in SADD flourished. Throughout the week of March 4-7, the club highlighted activities to promote Drunk Driving Awareness Week. Meetings and events were scheduled as well as a variety of guest speak- ers warning students about the dangers and consequences of drunk driving. A forty member Key Club was also organized under the supervision of Mrs. Pierce and history teacher, Mr. Rick Gray. Essentially a community ser- vice club, Key Club members worked together on a variety of worthwhile projects while bet- tering their own skills in organi- zation and time planning. ‘Our activities this year are center- ing around raising money so that in the future we will have the funds to support our plans for the addition of new school materials, equipment and do- nations to area organizations in need, ’ commented senior Key Club President, Sarah Cave. Special activities throughout the year included a massive car wash and preparations for an Olympic competition between Midlo’s clubs with the pro- ceeds going towards the Spe- cial Olympics. Mr. Gray along with Ms. Marsha Mauhey, also kept him- self busy with the organization of Amnesty International, a small club designed to help persons in need on an interna- tional level. Students in Mr. Gray's history class were angry about the tortures and other violations of human rights that were becoming to common- place abroad. Determined to do something about the situa- + ion, students channeled their feelings into hundreds of let- ters which were sent to officials a o help these mistreated per- sons. ‘Even though,” as Sara Lindsey stated, ‘we are a small group, our smallest effort can do a world of good for some- one in need.” Dramatic Productions Putting Smiles on Students Faces ‘Lights! Camera! Action! Action! All right, this meeting is now called to order!” cried Jenni Murray, senior drama club president. ‘All the world’s a stage to these budding Midlo actors and actresses,’ noted vice president Martha Kirby. All we try to do in drama club is to inspire these students and encourage them to build on the talents they already have.” The drama club’s main ac- tivities center around the fall and spring plays sponsored by the drama department each year. Two other specialized groups were also organized within the club. The Center Stage is a select group of actors or actresses who have accumu- lated at least ten points through oles, activities, and commit- ees. An initiation takes place in the spring each year for these new members at Mrs. Kathryn Baugher’s house, the drama club sponsor. MIDLOTHIAN’S MIME TROUPE ENTERTAINS students with an enactment of growing cabbage patch dolls on a cabbage farm. NEWLY BORN CABBAGE PATCH DOLLS spring to life after they are fertilized and wa- tered carefully. Stagecrew is another drama group whose main job is to build and create the sets for fall and spring plays. ‘“Stagecrew is a lot of fun,’ commented sen- ior Nancy Welder. “It gives ev- eryone a chance to get to know each other as they really are. Drama people have no inhibi- tions. I think, seriously, that more people should become more involved in drama be- cause it really is an experience you can't miss.” ONE OF MIDLOTHIAN'’S LARG- EST CLUBS is the Drama Club which presented numerous pro- ductions.

Its purpose was to relay the wishes of the biggest stu- dent body in Midlothian’s his- tory to the school’s administra- tion, making possible a num- ber of community and social servlces. The SCA began the year with an orientation. The August orientation is traditionally at- tended by only the rising fresh- men. Due to be explored, however, ori- to the new territory entation 1984 included many rising sophomores, juniors, and seniors who wandered in rather sheepishly, taking the opportunity to become ac- quainted with the awesome in- stitution. The big event for the SCA in 1984-85 was homeciming, the first at the new school. SCA re- presentatives took care of the dance: ordering food, decid- ing on decorations, and choos- ing a band. The homecoming princesses and parade were also SCA undertakings. Christmas time brought an outpouring of goodwill at Midlo. Student Council mem- bers saw to it that the goodwill was also spread to area needy. A party at Chestertield’s Diag- nostic Center featuring gifts and edibles was arranged by SCA treasurer Cindy Sizer and chaplain Debbie Marks. Jenna Gumm, SCA secretary, engi- neered a highly successful food drive which cleared out the pantries of many a Midloth- ian student. In addition to these activities, the SCA sponsored a needy family, putting each school club in charge of obtain- ing gifts for a member of that family. The SCA attempted to help a nationwide crisis by holding a drive for organ donor cards. This springtime project ended a year of community and social service which provided both SCA members and those whom they served with mutual satisfaction.

This combination Spanish, French and German Club boasted an astounding 500+ nembership in its second year. Maintaining a tradition of cul- xcitement, the MILC, in conjunction with the classics- oriented Latin Club, provided a wide variety of new exper- iences for the Midlo foreign language students during 1984-85. With the guidance of Latin Club sponsor, Mrs. Rob- ertson, Latin Club members participated in many Certa- men contests which chal- lenged the students in transla- tions, derivatives, mythology, Latin history, Roman life, and grammar.

Tickets to the din- ner were sold, advertising a upper theatre combination as he evening also marked the opening performance of the drama department's My Fair Lady. Other language week activities included an interview panel of foreign students, an inter-language volleyball game, a language teacher ex- icp 4 pee change day and introductory Russian classes after school. The proceeds went to the Sum- mer Abroad Scholarship win- ners: Cammie Seymour, Jeff Sties, and Meredith Matthews. The first annual International Cafe was also a new addition to the MILC schedule of activities this year. Students and faculty were amazed to see the tables and rows of authentic Spanish, French and German cuisine. Their astonishment was even greater when they discovered the food was only served to them if they requested it in the native language! With the coo- peration of Mrs. Janice Paulsen and over 175 hardworking stu- dents, the Cafe was a feast for over 350 students and faculty. Mrs. Evaline Jones noted that “the Cafe was a wonderful cul- tural experience which gave the students an opportunity to use their foreign languages in an aunthentic atmosphere.” aes apege THE DIVERSE GROUP which at- tended the NJCL convention s tood still long enough to be cap- tured on film.

FBLA President Lauri Nobles commented that ‘This year was a fresh start for many new members and for our new sponsor, Miss McCarthy, so our reorganization was a major factor in our slow develop- ment. Activities throughout the year included several fun- draisers. Students sold mer- chandise from Tom Watt Boxes which included a variety of small household items. ‘We were able to earn money and at the same time, benefit greatly from the business exchange experience,’ commented FBLA Leane Bell. Other events included ar- ‘anging for guest speakers in business classes. In an attempt to advertise the benefits of business classes, students also created displays featured in Midlo’s hall showcases. Sponsor Mrs. Robertson helped the Future Homemak- ers of America to take great strides in vocational develop- ment. Monthly meetings fea- tured topics of interest like crafts, sewing, and cooking. One of the biggest events of the year was a mock wedding organized with the home-ec. classes. FHA members gath- ered to see seniors Rebecca Rice and Ronnie Ramos joined in ‘imitation matrimony.” FHA members joined to- gether by their mutual interests in homemaking all enjoyed the opportunity, as one member stated, ‘to spend some time to- gether learning and benetit- ting from a pastime that we can all appreciate.’ FHA MEMBERS LOOK FOR- WARD to cooking and eating ex- travagant foods, but cleaning up after the fact is the tedious task.

Steve Sommers, Tra- cy Farmer, Jeff Buell, and Lin Anderson were all defensive standouts at the linebacker po- sition. This combination plus hard-hitting cornerbacks like Tom Kirkpatrick made the Tro- jan defense one of the best in the league. The J.V. team was a less suc- cessful team, but they were full of spirit. Pat O'Toole, Chip Boone, and Walter Rucker led the team as tri-captains. The lack of success of the team was due partly to the fact that the varsity squad took most of the experienced players for their team. As Pat O'Toole put it, “Our team was still finding the (continued) right players for the right posi- tions at the end of the season. The coaches did the best they could for the situation.” The highlight of the J.V. sea- son was their only victory over Powhatan. Charles Miller scored two touchdowns and Wil Bradham added a fifty-five yard interception return for a touchdown. This with the good defense helped the team se- cure a 30-8 win.

The number of wrestlers on the team meant fierce competition among team members in order © earn a spot in the matches with other teams.

Chambers held his opponent to just 12 points and helped Midlo defeat Byrd 55-49. ‘Mark's tremendous defense Byrd achievement for him as well as against was. .a great the entire team,’ stated Travis. Travis also noted that the suc- cessful season was due to the great team effort. ‘To stop one player, Chambers, Letts, or Thompson, was not enough to peat us.’ Their team play also carried them past Manchester n the Dominion District Cham- nionship game. After losing twice to Manchester; Midlo’s fi- nal victory was a rewarding end to their season.

This certainly must have been the case for the baseball program as the largest group of potential players showed up for the basebal tryouts. Thanks to the Boosters Club and the coaches, four new dugouts were ready when the season began. Also, an un- derground irrigation system was installed in order to put the field in pleasing condition. The improved facilities en- couraged more baseball par- ticipation. A record sixty-three boys tried out for the JV team. Coach Moody managed to pick, ‘‘one of the finest groups of young people | have ever mr coached Besides stand-out players such as Mark Wroniewicz, Richard Barrett, Tony Moore and Mark Chambers, a group of players called the ‘Fifth In- ning Team,” contributed to the team’s success. This group of players, the clean-up team, of- ten proved to be a decisive fac- tor in a game. In the last contro- versial encounter with Man- chester, Midlo was down 4-O before the Fifth Inning Team got into the game and turned things around. Midlo won 5-4, clinching the Dominion District Championships. The JV team also had a strong season with a 14-4 over- all record. Outstanding players such as Chip Boone, David Falls, and David Massie led the team to a winning season.

The change came when Dick Over- ton, a transfer from another county highschool, took over the entire track program. Working with assistants Vatel Dixon, Robert Wilkins, Pat Manuel, and Lauri Cacciotti, Overton tried to change his 1ew team's spirit from previous years. One team member re- membered the trip home from a meet in Charlottesville, “I have never seen this team have so much fun.” The team’s new Couch keeps his.hi ogether. a — Sports Boys coach brought a new sense of team spirit. Each member felt special about their 1985 track season. The boys’ track team showed their new spirit on the track, also. Excelling in almost all areas of track, junior Chris Bur- ford led the team as the leading point-getter. In Midlo’s first meet, Chris scored enough points to obtain a varsity letter, something most athletes work towards all year. Also, Chris was recognized as the Athlete of the Week in the Midlothian Gazette. Chris placed first in the pole vault, 400, 200, and 100 meters, long jump, and second in the high jump. Chris’ A spirit of unity put trackmen On Their Marks successful season led him to a spot in the regional meet in which he placed seventh in the 400. The team’s new spirit was also evident in many other run- ners. Cliff Armstead and Curtis Robinson led the team in the sprints along with Chris. John Carroll, Tye Hagen, and Jed Sweeney were Midlo’s finest distance runners. John, while running sick, placed eighth in the mile at districts. Brandon Bonzer and Kyle Kellogg led the Trojans in the shot and dis- cus. This team, although far from being the best in the area, had one of it's most rewarding sea- sons in a long while. The team joined together for more than just the track meets. Coach Overton invited all members to a party after a Friday meet. Al- most the entire team stayed for hot dogs and music until late in the night. Also, on a Saturday, many team members as well as coaches, came to the school to be volunteers for the Special Olympics. Throughout the year, the boys’ track team worked to- gether with what they had. They adapted to the change in the coaching staff and were able to hold together as strong competitors in the Dominion District. LEADING THE PACK IN THE HALF MILE, the Midlo boys’ team gets a good jump against Mills Godwin. ey — 7 Ci 2 wit; BOYS’ TRACK TEAM: Front: Ross Pervett, Mike Reiley, Mike Sauer, Josh Rademaker, Cliff Armstead, Andy Southworth, Roney Johnson.

Midlo track tans saw the Lady Trojans... 1e same spirit that was ex- emplitied by the boys’ track team was also displayed by the girls’ team. Head Coach Dick Over- ton continued the girls’ tradi- tional success and offered them a new spirit. The girls’ team achieved a 9-3 overall record which placed them third in the district. Coach Overton sat back and watched his girls’ , eam grow and succeed the en- ure Season. The biggest area of growth came in the sprints. They ichieved success from their mile relay team which seemed to have a slow start. Halfway through the season, the girls went to Western Albermarle to compete in a tough invita- tional. The Trojan mile relay team ran a much improved mile and stayed very close to the leaders in the state-wide meet. Sprinter Coach Vatel Dixon and Head Coach Over- ton saw the girls’ speed and knew they would be success- ful. In the district meet, the mile relay squad handed the girls’ team a third place. The squad, consisting of Stacey Wirt, Deb- bie Murphy, Kim Kellogg, and Susan Dailey, was an enjoyable sight tor the coaches to watch. In the tield events, Ruby Tay- lor was Midlo’s number one high jumper. Ruby placed first at the Western Albermarle meet with a school record jump of 5’ 2 . She also placed third at the district meet. Kristin Root and Liz Lenkey also added to the girls’ high jumping success. Making Great Strides The Lady Trojans also showed their strength in the ong distant running events, also. Debbie Murphy, Susan Dailey, and Elizabeth Segar were the girls’ strongest dis- tance runners. Segar placed second in the mile and two mile at the district meet. Another district place came from Sue Charles who won her heat in the 800 meters. This enabled her to compete in the regional meet. Throughout the season the girls were strong contenders in the Dominion: District. Losing only two district meets to Mea- dowbrook and L.C. Byrd was a big dchievement for the Lady Trojans. Their team unity was displayed throughout the en- tire season, especially in the mile relay team.

P, 187 Sd Soccer offense depended heavily on... Ettective Detense talented defense proved to be the greatest strength of the 1985 Tro- jan Soccer team. Evidence of the strong defense came as five defensive players were chosen for the all-district teams, three of whom were chosen for the first team and two were chosen for the sec- ond team. During the season, the de- fensive team’s success aided the whole team's effort by al- lowing the offensive team the freedom they needed to score the goals that led to their wins. Even though they were the smallest team in the district, the Trojan’s play was unaffected by the size of the players. Rob Tyler, senior player, felt that their unity was a major contrib- utor to their success. ‘The team was unified this year and car- ried humor onto the field with them,” said Rob. Another factor was the sup- port the Midlo fans gave the team. Attendance at the games increased, and the fans were more spirited in their support. The players who in the past had played mostly for themselves now played with heart for their school. The season ended success- fully from two points of view — hey won and they enjoyed the winning. With a 12-2 record, the team ended the season as notable representatives of their school and its sports program.

AS BULLDOZERS GROWLED, the trees came crashing down, and Charter Colony Parkway was born. The End otf So a whole year passed, a contusing jumble of new places, new faces, and new ex- periences. The strangeness of a school without traditions, with- out-the grafitti that someone's great-aunt had scribbled on the bathroom walls, all this passed as more than 1500 stu- dents and faculty lent their character to the school’s new personality. The seniors of 1985 had the responsibility of clearning the path for tuture classes. As graduates waited quietly in line, throughts turned to the past four years.

This year we feel we have expanded on that pur- pose somewhat in order to ade- quately express our theme of “So ... What Else is New?” Our goal this year could be condensed into one word: sur- vival. Aided by the patient guidance and valued judge- ment of Mrs. Miles, yearbook sponsor, and Mike Smith, Herttf Jones representative, we waged a yearlong struggle to produce a yearbook that would surpass all others in every way possible. It was easy to tell when dead- line time drew near; our dis- tressed looks, sagging eyes, and unstable walks were a few of the primary signs. Emergen- cy rations of ice cream, howev- er, stashed in the trusty year- book retrigerator, could be de- hanes he Atenas Nake eee Ne Karen Dailey Chris Farabaugh Leena ete gn a EO, Shannon Viveiros Kim Rapp Lynn Schutze Pe access Gtk omen ay ai Lara Crowder Peis re Wendy Pember Karen Petrasy Se Res oP a ee Gir at ran tad Claudine Inslee Petia Geer ear Meee pete it te be Kim Rapp Ge Oey Ce OS Elizabeth Segar Gretchen Vandewalle Pe emit Po rer eae Elizabeth Segar Gretchen Vandewalle Bae eie Ee eye Aare ae nee ay Karen Petrasy seeds a Se Ae eae Scott Miles Mary Beth Staton Ron Turner Lance Wood Sie octay Eis eee Sy See eee Wendy Pember Karen Petrasy SR ETS Oy ER EIN STO Seated oe Kim Bishop Devin Granback Ann Scheller Kevin Thompson pended upon to pull us through those difficult times. We would like to recognize and extend our thanks to all the staff members for plowing on while we fell apart and for the many hours of work they put into devising lay-outs, counting copy, and co-ordinating intfor- mation. Without them, the task of making a yearbook would have overwhelmed us. We do not feel that it is hu- manly possible to “thank” the photographers for their invalu- able contributions. We can only plead forgiveness for our weekly (daily) tantrums, exces- sive nagging, and occasional physical abuse. We sincerely hope that Bill's Barbecue chocolate pies will not be needed to motivate next year’s photographers; that is a prac- tice which editorial purses find painful. Despite the trials and tribula- tions of yearbook, the excite- ment of seeing a lay-out in its final form somehow made late night efforts and l« hours seem almost worth il Mrs. Miles, we are v much endebted to you for y amazing patience and willi ness to endure our little ‘‘o« ties’, ie. putting yearbook minders into your lunch] between the cheese and cre ers. We realize it was difficu times. Lastly, we greatly apprec the understanding of Mrs. | and Mrs. Robertson who dured our latenesses to c with continuing generosity « kindliness. We dedicate this yearb to those who actually mad possible: the students, fact and administration of Midk ian High School. An attemr capture their personality . spirit made us realize for o and for all how tru ly extrao nary Midlo really is.
