Although she majored in English, she is also certi- fied to teach history. This is her thirteenth year of teaching school in various places such as Jordan Matthews, Horton Middle, Chatham Central, and now, Northwood. Besides teaching, she has held several other jobs. She worked as a librarian in the Siler City Elementary School and at The Chatham Bank in Goldston while she attended Goldston High School. She was the music director for various churches and served as the feature editor for the original Chatham County Herald newspaper. She has also taught several cake decorating classes for Central Carolina Tech- nical College and presently caters weddings and parties. Mrs. Poindexter has a wide range of hobbies and interests which include playing the piano, singing, and listening to music. She also enjoys decorating her house and entertaining friends. She writes non- fiction and inspirational materials, and she enjoys traveling and being with her family. She attends Pittsboro Baptist Church where she was formerly the choir director and presently teaches the Couples’ Class in Sunday School. She spends a great amount of time with her family, and as a result they are all very close. They do many things together such as have a “family night” each week in which they share each other’s company. Her husband, Bill, is the Farm Program Specialist in the Farmer’s Home Administration Office in Raleigh. She has two daughters; Julia, 20 who is a junior at Campbell University and Jan, 16 who is a junior here, at Northwood. Students relate to Mrs. Poindexter because of her willingness to listen to their concerns and her offers of support. She believes that students’ point of view are important and seems to really care about each and every individual. The Senior Class of 1984 would like to dedicate this yearbook to Mrs. Sims Poindexter, a friend as well as a teacher. We love you Mrs. Poindexter! Teaching young people is an honor. I learned many years ago that teenagers are very special, not only because our future lies in their hands but also because their quest for new ideas and ex- panded knowledge is stimulating to those of us who are older. Being a high school teacher affords me the two privileges of participating in the educational growth of young people and keeping my own perspective youthful. Teaching at Northwood is an additional honor. The beautiful physical additional facility, the congenial faculty, the supportive administrators, and the talented students all combine to make my job one that I treasure. Dedication 5 N.H.S. Ten Years Ago As you can see by all these pictures, Northwood has undergone some major changes in the past ten years! However, some things have remained the same. Al- though we have had new faculty members from time to time, many of the same teachers are still here. For ex- ample, Mr. Self still explains math as Mr. Shaner and Mr. Horton busily attend a teacher’s meeting. Mr. Leach still has his same cheerful smile and Mr. Kitchings still has the bravery to ride trip after trip with young, new drivers. The principal, ten years ago, was Mr. Earl Wat- son, and the assistant principal was Mr. Gene Brooks. The senior class had 183 members, while the whole stu- dent body was composed of eight hundred. Mr. Henry Hunt directed the band and Mr. Charles Horton directed the chorus. 6 Ten Years Afro Northwood also looks much different than it did ten years ago. The courtyard had barely been constructed and there were no shrubs or azaleas to brighten it up. In fact, much of the landscaping was still to come. At that time, there was no school sign by the highway, and there was no trophy case in the cafeteria lobby. The greenhouse was under construction and the final touches were being put on the football field. There were no murals such as sailboats or Spanish bullfighters to brighten the walls. The total original cost of construc- tion was slightly under two million, being $14.03 per square foot. Based on today’s estimated cost, the price of construction would be approximately five to six mil- lion dollars. As we go through life we will always see ways in which things and people around us have changed. Northwood has changed a great deal, but in reality the games that students played ten years ago have been passed on down to us. Now, we are the stu- dents of Northwood and it is our turn to play the games. Ten Years Afro 7 Decked In Design Guys often feel left out when it comes to fashion. However, this is not the case here at Northwood. David Miller sports faded blue jeans, a T-shirt, an army jacket and checkered sneakers for a casual look. Jeff Glosson, a sophomore, prefers a more sophisticated look. Some like them wide. Some like them narrow. And some even like them in between. But, whichever you pre- fer, whether it be wide, narrow, or in between, if you choose a belt, you will definitely be in. Cleat Lindsey and David Hayhurst are decked out in the punk-rock look. 8 Fashions The preppy style is again popular this year. Angela Goldston models gray slacks and a ski sweater. Alli- son Thomas shows off her preppy sweater vest. SPIRIT COMES ALIVE Spirit week this year was a success. Al- though the week was shortened because of the teacher workday, everyone still got into the spirit of things. Monday teachers were shocked as purple and green haired students walked into class dressed for Punk Rock Day. Joette Thomas and Cindy Partin show us what punk is all about. Students sported poodle skirts, pony tails, bobbie socks, red lipstick, leather jackets, and slicked back hair as they celebrated 50’s Day. Karen Davis, Sharon Davis and Rhonda Peek relive the 50’s. On Wednesday Northwood was invaded by transexuals; Paul Mitchum and Jeanette Sugg changed roles for a day. Also, Pauline (Paul) was selected Homecoming Queen on Thursday. Many students were decked out in green and gold and hats and shades on Thursday. Charlene Page and Amy Lankford show their spirit on the final day of spirit week. 4 I Parading Through the Streets On October 13, the streets of Pittsboro were filled with Northwood fans celebrating their annual homecoming. The sophomore float re- ceived first place honors. The Student Coun- cil float came in second and the junior float placed third. The parade was followed by a victory over Chatham Central by Northwood with a score of thirty-three to eight. , fottdu yflon oya Homecoming 13 1 ane ca Stitit Jon a amni 'V 0 loteon jfoe ' 7 uvmctA ji }onna War MONDAY It comes once a week: Monday, the day that everyone dreads. When morning comes all you want to do is stay in bed and sleep. Monday is the time to unwind from a fun-filled weekend and prepare for the usual school routine. If anything can go wrong, it will on a Monday. First, your alarm clock rings an hour later, your hair never does right, and you have a flat tire on the way to school causing you to get an unexcused tardy to homeroom. You do your two hours worth of homework in ten minutes, only to have the teacher not take it up. Although Monday is the worst day of the week, the thought of Friday gets you through. FRIDAY T.G.I.F. — Thank God It’s Friday! The long-awaited, antici- pated, glorious day has finally arrived. A week’s worth of home- work and tests come to an end. It is time to get out and have fun. Plans made during the week result in groups going out to eat, seeing a movie, cruising downtown or simply watching televi- sion. The only bad thing about Friday is that you are one step closer to Monday. Everyone deserves a break from life’s strain, and students at N.H.S. are no exception. Many students used this year’s lunch periods as a chance to lounge around and catch up on the latest gossip. N.H.S. thrived with ideal spots to do just that. The bus lobby and the smok- ing area both serve as a popular place for socializing. When the weather condi- tions are not suitable the bus lobby shel- ter area is converted into a temporary smoking area. The library poses as a popular place in the mornings before school. Students not only talk gossip but also do last mi- nute homework or cram for a test. N.H.S. students always manage to find the ideal “hot spot” for all their needs. 16 Hot Spots 17 (outfits Juau cst (1) Laura Green, like many other peo- ple, enjoy’s Mayfest.

They spent a week at the U niversity of North Carolina at Greensboro. They studied about various aspects of govern- ment and learned parliamentary procedure, which they used during a mock senate session. Tonya said she really enjoyed meeting new peo- ple. She also liked being in a college atmosphere and being on her own. Mary Faye agreed that Girls State was a helpful and fun wax to get a taste of college life on campus. Boys’ State Kenneth Holder attended Boys State at Wake Forest University oxer the summer. Kenneth studied mostly about the workings of state gov- ernment.

While there, her main area of study was instrumental music, but she also studied philosophy and psychology. When asked how she liked Gov- ernor’s School, she said that she en- joyed the college atmosphere. The most exciting part for her was forming close and lasting friendships with people from all over North Carolina. At Salem College, Tina Free- man’s main area of study was English. She also attended classes in philoso- phy and psychology. Tina’s opinion of Governor’s School was it served as the perfect learning environment and structure. By living and working with four hundred students from all over the state, I learned a lot about myself as well as many friends. She said it was one of the greatest experiences of her life.

That is exactly what the cafeteria staff does each day. These people arrive early, stay late, and prepare well-balanced meals for the students. They work hard to keep our cafeteria running smoothly. Karla Dean and Joe Bullock also help keep our cafeteria running. They are human calculators as they figure the number of lunches, drinks, and snacks sold each day. Most people work nine to five, five days a week. However, Mr. and Mrs. Tripp work seven to five, five days a week, nights, and at least eight hours on the weekends. They have more than a full-time job keeping Northwood clean for faculty and students. The Tripps have found it necessary to work longer hours since the C.E.T.A. workers who previously helped them were terminated last September. Faculty 83 An Everyday Thing English is something that we are faced with everyday. For those of us that it holds only problems for, it should be con- sidered a foreign language. The English curriculum re- mained unchanged this year with the usual requirements of compositions, grammar exer- cises, and reading assignments. However, there was one change in the English department this year. It wa§ the addition of a new faculty member, Mrs. Michele Fisher, a graduate of Clemson University; Mrs. Fisher enjoys the students and the routine at Northwood. Math games were played by many Northwood students this year. The rules varied from one math “game” to the next. However, all players gained much knowledge to carry with them to next year’s “game” in an advanced course or to use in the game of life. Northwood’s math curricu- lum spans the course of fun- damentals of math in order to accommodate all students’ needs in later life. We may not enjoy the math course work, but we all can appreciate being able to play the math “games” as our personal needs demand. 86 English Math Parlez-vous Franpais? The French classes are work- ing hard to learn a second lan- guage. French I students learn basic vocabulary and sen- tences. During French II, stu- dents learn more difficult vocabulary and grammar skills. The history and literature of the native country are intro- duced to French III and IV stu- dents. The understanding and application of a foreign lan- guage give students a wider margin of knowledge to work with. Habla Espanol? The Spanish classes are struggling to learn a second language. During the first year, Spanish I students learn simple vocabulary and sentence struc- ture to prepare them for a sec- ond year. Spanish II students are faced with a more complex vocabulary and skills involved with grammar. Literature and history of the native country baffle the minds of Spanish III and Spanish IV students. A Foreign language course gives students a better knowledge of the culture and traditions of people in a foreign country. It is especially enjoyable to those students who are involved. Foreign Language 87 Better Homes 8c Gardens Students taking carpentry, bricklaying, and agriculture will have a head start on the competition as they attend technical schools and search for jobs. These students can use the skills they learn for the rest of their lives. Carpentry students learn what woods to use and how to use them. Cutting wood correct- ly takes a lot of skill and concen- tration. Carpentry students are also building a two-story house. They have been busily working to complete this project. The hard work and sweat put into this house will soon be re- warding. Bricklaying is the foundation of starting a house, and that is just what the bricklaying stu- dents have done in conjunction with the carpentry students. Bricklaying can also be the start of a great career. Agriculture students are pre- paring for careers in horticul- ture. They spend many hours clearing out the area in front of the school grounds. This not only makes the school look bet- ter, but also helps the agricul- ture students learn about their future careers. 88 Carpentry Horticulture Bricklaying Working 9 to 5 Distributive education is a course designed mainly for stu- dents who are not planning to attend college. It gives stu- dents an idea what the working world is like and usually leads directly to employment after graduation. Distributive work involves such jobs as cashiers or retail work. This course also helps individuals make a deci- sion as to what career they would like to pursue, if any at all. Students finally learn how hard it is to “make it on their own.” Making Ends Meet Business courses deal mainly with giving students a back- ground for further study and job preparation. Emphasis is placed on learning the basic skills and jobs that go with dif- ferent occupations. D.EiBusiness 89 Exploring Aspects of Science There was excitement in the science department this year! All students were allowed to participate in the school’s first science fair. Prizes were awarded in several different categories, and much was learned from this special project. Again this year, sophomores were collecting flies and var- ious creepy crawlers in the halls and school grounds for the annual insect collection. Last minute efforts resulted in the biology students catching and trading insects with such fer- vor that an outsider would have thought there was a ransom on the head of anything with six legs! Students in all science classes made it through the year with the usual headaches and ended the year with more awareness of the world around them. History courses teach stu- dents about old events and cur- rent events. The teachers try to give students a basic knowl- edge of events that have helped our country grow. An under- standing of history enables us to meet challenges of our world to- day. One of the new courses in our history department this year is comprehensive government. This course introduces stu- dents to the “world of govern- ment” and how it operates. 90 Science History Library Aides (left to right) first row: Bobby Parker, Latanya Clemons, Robert Scurlock, Wendy Palmer, Mike Roper, Doni Pul- ley, Kim Cross, second row: Brad Cook, Kathy Mann, Michelle Mills, Diane Taylor, Walter Riggsbee, Sammy Bald- win, Aggie Combs, Harold Dowdy, Pat- ricia Owens, Carla Alston, Marie Clark, Mrs. Riggsbee, Librarian. Mrs. Riggsbee receives spe- cial assistance from the eigh- teen students who serve as li- brary aides. They are impor- tant to the smooth-running op- eration of the library’s many services. Students at North- wood appreciate this facility and those who work hard to make it an important part of the educational process here. Office Assistants (left to right) first row: Jane Harring- ton, Angela Goldston, Cindy Partin, Pam Mitchell, Ann Tripp, second row: Carla Sparrow, Jennifer Outz, Angie Mansfield, Sheryl Hodgin, Lynnette Tripp. Ten students serve in many capacities as office assistants. Their duties vary from answer- ing the telephone to locating a particular student at a mo- ment’s notice. Office Assistants contribute daily to the efficien- cy of the administration at Northwood. The training and experience these students gain will be valuable to them in everyday life. Aides 91 Producing the Book of the Year Yearbook production is not the easy course most people think it is as many staffers dis- covered this year. Students learn all aspects of producing a yearbook such as layout design, copy writing, cropping pictures, fitting copy, sizing headlines, and preparing final layout pages to be sent to the publisher. Students also learn that a great deal of money is required to produce the book. A large amount of this money is gener- ated by the book sales, but it is still necessary for students to sell ads and more ads. The time involved in produc- ing a yearbook is also some- thing which amazes students. There is always something to be done and never enough time to do it! Students worked nights, some Saturdays, and every chance they could get. Thanks to the dedication of a few hard workers the book was finally produced. 92 Yearbook Freedom of the Press Hard at work this year to spread the word was the 1983- 84 Hoofbeats staff. The school newspaper is produced by stu- dents who enjoy writing. This year the newspaper has seemed a great success. It in- cludes birthdays, “Juke Box”, and interesting information concerning our busy lives at Northwood. The paper is written by stu- dents, produced by students, purchased by students, read by students, and supported by stu- dents. Staff Members: (left to rijjht) First row: Allison Thomas.

Art I covers basic art skills such as drawing, color, design, printmaking, pottery, and painting (pastels, water- colors, and acrylics). Art II is a continuation of Art I, and stu- dents work in more difficult areas including pen ink work and silkscreen printing using photo emulsion. The class Art III uses a more individualistic approach. The students are free to experiment and go into greater detail in a particular medium. This class also learns to take pictures, develop film, and enlarge prints. Art 95 Playing Toward Fitness Health and P.E. are taught as a combination class. P.E. is taught three days a week and health is taught two days a week. In Health, the students learn about their feelings, rela- tionships with others, and emo- tions. In physical education the stu- dents learn rules of sports games as well as how to play. Advanced P.E. is also taught. It lets students learn more than the basics that they learned their freshman year. On the Road Again Driver’s education is taught by Mr. Henry Kitchings. Driv- er’s education is taken by all freshman the first six weeks. The book work is done the first six weeks; then, the “survi- vors” get a chance to try driv- ing out on the road. Mr. Kitch- ings says he really enjoys teaching the students. It is a challenge to him as well as the students. 96 Health Driver’s Ed. Julia Child Eat Your Heart Out! This year home economic stu- dents are learning to become better able to accept the re- sponsibilities of adults. The students have learned much about tending to babies and how much trouble such a small bundle can be to handle. Many of the students say they have learned a great deal from this class. The students also sold cookies during break that they baked to raise money. This class seems to have made many of the students realize the large responsibility of being a mature, responsible adult. The Best of Life Health is something lots of people take for granted. Some people are not lucky enough to have good health. In health occupations class, students learn about dangerous diseases and regular malfunctions of the human body. The health occupations course also introduces careers in the health field. Health occupations is something everyone who wishes to have a family could easily use. Home EcVHealth Occupations 97 jOrmna Mrs. McCoy, in her second year of teaching Drama at Northwood, has continued doing an excellent job. Stu- dents enrolled in Drama I and Drama II have learned a lot of skills as well as a great deal of responsibility from her. Drama I teaches students the basic skills of acting portrayed in mime, small skits, and con- quering stage fright. Occa- sionally they are able to help with the backstage duties in- volved in a play. Students enjoy this class as it gives them an opportunity to express them- selves and relax from the press- ures of other classes. Drama II gives students a more indepth study of the the- ater. Those who have com- pleted Drama I and want to further knowledge of acting advance to this class. These stu- dents help with the make-up, actors actresses, making props, and lighting for the productions put on by the Acting Ensemble. 98 Drama Body Language “Do you wanna dance?” Stu- dents who did want to dance were able to do so this year and earn credit toward graduation at the same time! Specially- selected Northwood students participated in dance instruc- tion under the supervision of Mrs. Neal. This course of study taught a different form of communica- tion, provided an enjoyable time of exercise, and did much to develop a sense of awareness of movement and self. Dance 99 Pony Express Northwood’s show choir, the Pony Express, has had an exciting first year! This group is a show choir of fifteen singers who were carefully selected based on advanced skills in solos, music reading, part singing, sight reading and stage presence. To enhance many of their tunes, the Pony Express has learned choreogra- phy and has also designed their cos- tumes to put some pizazz into their per- formances. This group made its debut at Northwood in an assembly on Octo- ber 28 for Halloween. In November, they were invited to entertain for the Chatham County Farm-City Week Observance in Siler City. Christmas was a busy time with a joint concert with the Concert Choir at Northwood on December 11 and a tour of Moncure and Horton the following week. Both groups joined the Dance Ensemble to present “Silent Night” in a Christmas Assembly before exams. In February, the Pony Express participated in Small Ensemble Contest at Peace College in Raleigh. In the spring, Pony Express and Concert Choir went on a tour of New York City where they saw two Broadway shows and had workshops in Cabaret performance with Robert Bass.

Glee Club This year the Green and Gold Glee Club is a class for students who want to learn more about singing in a chorus, but without performance requirments. No audition is required to be in Green and Gold, only an interest and desire to make music. Several students from Green and Gold, Valerie Dison, Carol Glosson, Antonio Thompson, and Dar- rell Wall, have learned the concert mu- sic and are also members of the Concert Choir. 100 Chorus Department Amy Brannock, Director, Antonio Thompson, Sherman Stroud, Shawn McKenzie, Ricky Headen, Valerie Dixon, Rosa Harris, Carol Ann Glosson Department 1983-84 First row — (Right to left) Shebra Hackney, Shawn McKenzie, Becky Sipe, Carol Glosson, Monique Lattimore, Lisa Wolf, John Sadler, Denise Buchanan, Teresa Al- ston, Gave Alston, Shelly Thomas, Betsy Clark.

All members have demon- strated certain musical skills, and all have had at least one year in chorus, either at the junior high or high school level. This group participated in the Halloween assembly, in the Christmas Concert, and in the junior high tour at Christmas. They sang at Large Ensem- ble Regional Choral Festival in Greens- boro in March. This is a contest similar to the one the Pony Express partici- pated in; both choruses sang selections from memory for judges who graded various areas of their musicianship.

The band showed spirit and support for the football team and even won the spirit stick once. They also provided much entertainment for many people in various parades they performed in. The band has experienced some changes this year. For instance, the band is now under the direction of Mr. Robert Fleming. Mr. Fleming has had a very impressive career, and he says the band is young and could really go places with practice and determination. The band’s equipment room also was remodeled to better suit the band’s needs. And for the first time ever, the band has only one drum major, who also is a female. Marcie Gardner has taken over a hard job and handled it well. Band 105 Norttiwood’s Student Government The student council is the student government of North- wood. One of its many activities includes overseeing all clubs organized by reviewing the club charters each year. Student council also orga- nizes schoolwide social activi- ties such as the homecoming dance, Valentine’s dance, Valentine week, and assists with the homecoming parade and Mayfest. In addition, student council is responsible for monitoring the lunch lines and also operating the school store before school begins each day. 106 Student Council Cream of ike Crop The National Honor Society exists to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the develop- ment of character of students in the school. Membership is based on these characteristics. Academically, students must maintain a 3.2 average with no semester grade of D or F. Officers: Laura Comer, Pres., Perry Harrison, Vice Pres., Jane Harrington, Sec., Cleat Lindsey, Treas. National Honor Society 107 Sociedad Honoraria Hispanica Speaking In Tongues The Spanish club and honor society are organiza- tions that are both in- terested in the Hispanic cul- tures and giving students an opportunity to explore cultural aspects outside of class. Student’s in the honor so- ciety must have an A aver- age in Spanish and a B aver- age in other classes for three semesters. Traditionally, a money making project has sup- plied a senior with a schol- arship to continue his her education. To aid in fund raising, the Spanish club sells balloon-a-grams at Mayfest each year. 108 Spanish Club Honor Society Foreign Affairs Perry Harrison, Michel- le Mills, Cindy Brown, Sharon Davis, Jan Poindexter, Linda Brooks, Lorrie Thomas, Mike Roper, and Debra Massey French Honor Society Perry Harrison, Cindy Brown, Sharon Davis, Jan Poindexter, Michelle Mills French Club Honor Society 109 NASA Club 1983-1984 The Northwood Science Club has changed its name to the Northwood Association For Scientific Advancement. The NASA is also affiliated with the Junior Engineering and Techinical Society (JETS) and the North Caro- lina Student Academy of Science (NCSAS). NASA is a club that is to interest high school students in science engineering and technolo- gy and to assist capable students in training for a career in these fields. NASA also has different annual projects which they sometimes turn into accomplish- ments. The group along with their sponsor Tim Davidson attend competitions at St. An- drews Science Olympiad, and they sponsor TEAMS competition with other 2A schools. However, this year they have one special project; NASA is planning a science field trip to the Big Apple, New York City. The students have made Advisor Tim David- son very pleased with their hard work and effort, and out of their effort they have been recognized by the National JETS office for two years successively. Mr. Davidson said, “We hope to win the National Chapter Award this year.” 110 Science Club Math letes The computer club is a group of people who are in- terested in not only learning more about computers, but also learning how to master the computer. Mem- bership requires a great deal of wit and skill to under- stand the totally mechanical machine. Computer Club 111 Love Them Letters The monogram club is a club consisting of var- sity athletes only. This club has a number of players from all the Northwood teams. The members of the monogram club run the concession stands and ticket booths at the school’s athletic events. They also raise money to buy different athletic equipment. These athletes are the ones that make our physical education de- partment special. Fellowship of Christian Athletes Fellowship of Christian athletes is an organization of people who either are already Christians or who are seeking a better relationship with Christ. The group meets the first and third Monday of each month for Bible study, fellow- ship, and recreation. FCA has been at Northwood since 1974. It is non-denominational and is offered to anyone who wishes to come. 112 FCA Monogram Weight Ciub The purpose of the weight club at Northwood is to make the weight room available to students not in an athletic weight train- ing program. Also, the club gives instructions to beginning lifters. The weight club’s activities include co-sponsor for the homecom- ing bon fire and sponsor for the Mr. Northwood Contest at Mayfest. Last year the Weight Club raised two hundred dollars. The money went for buying additional equipment for the weight room to be used this year. The weight club is also making a new addition to the weight room located behind the boys’ locker room in the gym.

There were many returning starters from last year’s squad, includ- ing 82-83’s most valuable play- er, Anthony Craven, and power hitter, Kenneth Alston. The depth that the Chargers had on the team, lead them to a second place seat in the Central Tar Heel Conference. The team con- cluded the season with a 11-6 over-all record and a 9-3 confer- ence record. 126 Varsity Boy’s Baseball Varsity Boy’s Baseball 127 J. V.

Varsity Football 137 The varsity football team showed much team spirit this past season; this contrib- uted to their wins over the top teams. The major con- tributors to the team were Kenneth Blacknell, FD-LB; Kenny Aslton, TB; Paul Mitchum, OG; and Jerry Al- ston, slot. The team’s motto was “more of me in 83”. This meant that lifting weights after school would help to build a winning season. Most of the players on the team were seniors, but they had some greatly improved juniors and some sopho- mores. Mr. Tilley, in his third year of coaching here at NHS, has helped improve the team in utilizing its potential by always striving for a winning season. Kenny Alston, Kenneth Blacknell, and Jerry Alston sprint for the finish. Paul Mitch- um looks determined. 138 Varsity Football Varsity Football 139 Smaller, Younger, Meaner Front row (left to right) — John Shaner, Sam Goldman, Darrell Roberson, Gigi Alii, Mike Roberson, Van Holt, David Jarman, Bryan Dean, Lee Mahaley, Montrell Scurlock, Scottie Greene, Chris George, Eugene Smith.

The team was lead by Brad Green and Robert Scurlock, team captains. The team players were very good in playing strong and aggressive basket- ball. The team began with a good start, with many talented players returning from last year’s team. They managed to improve their conference standings from previous years. Coach Horton spread the team’s skill over the starting five as well as those who sat on the bench. He improved the team’s coor- dination and agility in vast measures. This year’s team had the talent to take the Chargers to the 2A crown. First row — W. Monroe, K. Alston, R. Scurlock, R. Young, E. Nickerson, J. Craven. Second row— B. Green, R. Alston, L. Stroud, S.

Basketball JV Basketball Improves Standings The Junior Varsity team played great bas- ketball this season. The team displayed raw talent in every position of the court. They were lead by Abdul Ghaffar, Harold Edwards, James McKissick, Derrick Strickland, and Tim Watts. These five players provided the team- work that enabled them to win most of their games. The team also had great talent in the other players as well. Jim Hart, in his first year coaching at Northwood, showed wise judgement in the management of the team. The J.V. players definitely showed that they were a team to be reckoned with this year. Coach Hart confers with Varsity Coach Horton during an in tense game. 1983-84 J.V.

The season got off to a great start. The second annual Wieland Chevrolet-Oldsmobile Holiday Classic was held during the Christmas season. Even aganist tough competition, the Lady Chargers managed to place fourth out of six teams. At the half-mark of the season, the Lady Chargers were unde- feated in the conference and had a overall record of 13-3. Along with this came a state ranking of 10.

When we had not met our deadlines, we played Hide and Seek to save our necks. We played Clue when we misplaced a picture and had to find out who took it. We played Money when we sold all of our ads. When we could not find a place for some things in the book, we played the hit-and-miss game of Battleship. We played Scrab- ble when we wrote our copy. Eventually, we got caught in a Maze. Our photographers were sup- posedly caught playing Poker with several popular females’ pictures. Our advisor bought so many dif- ferent photography supplies she almost had a Monopoly. We thought we were through but ..so much for thought. Finally, we hit Pay Day when we saw our blue proofs. Through working with each other and dealing with many different problems, all of us became better players of the game of LIFE, which is the most importan t game of all. The Yearbook Staff would like to express its grat- itude to the following people: Dennis Dowdy for his tremendous help in the darkroom; Dave Kitzmiller, honorary staff member, for the conversion of his room into an extra annual room; Chatham Record for its help with obtaining pictures, Sanford Herald for its help with obtaining pictures, Foisters for discounts on film and darkroom supplies, Tar Heel Drug for discounts on film processing, Terrell Ellington for his help in obtaining sports pictures, Dick Lowe, our sales representative; Phyllis Nunn for her help with our layout designs, Tom Adams, sales representative; Ray Johnson for keeping rec- ords of our finances, All faculty students for their support and patience, Carolina Portrait Studio for advice and help with pictures, Hollyfield Studio’s for faculty and student pictures, David Mahaley for help with photography, Renelda Parker for help with photography, and Elsbeth Johnson for the use of her typewriters. Without the help of these people, this yearbook would not have been possible. 150 Closing !'AM COUNTY ){ .
