Shades of Green and White Slogans of spirit and shades of green and white adorned the Commu- nity Building both inside and out. ln- side, centerpieces consisted of minia- ture sports equipment which proved that the Athletic Boosters had once again outdone themselves. After Coach Chester Roy's invoca- tion, guests dug-in to the veritable feast, filling their plates with barbe- que, smoked sausage, beans, potato salad, coleslaw, and cake. Conversa- tion lagged as the hungry crowd of fans and athletes did justice to the cook's effort. Following the meal, the coaches presented individual certificates and Head Coach Talkington presented the Billy Jack Roberson and Mary Fleming awards to the outstanding male and female athletes. He, in turn, received a going away present from Booster Monte Rouquette. The highlight of the evening was the slide show of the year's sports activities, put together by Charles Gardner and Monte Rouquette. When the cheerleaders led the guests in the school song, the close- ness of the moment reminded every- one that year's end brings change, but memories should last a lifetime. Continuing his year long habit. Coach Evans watches his junior athletes while Coaches Jackson and Roy grin with senior Rhonda McMillan as Coach Job presents her certifi- cate.
