Owensboro High School - Owensboroan Yearbook (Owensboro, KY)

Text from Pages 1 - 248 of the 1978 volume:

LIVE ON STAGE . . . at 1300 Booth and 1800 Frederica . . . Our High School has been running season after season since 1875 in this All-Kentucky city of 54,000 people . . . Each of the 2,100-plus cast members serves three apprentice years before be- coming a full-fledged Demon-obsessed OHS graduate, sharing in the school's rich tradition and achievement . . . This year's play, running from August 24, 1977, through June 3, 1978, is a three-act production that is sometimes comedic, yet always dramatic, often musical, but many times an unharmonious mess. The OWENS- BOROAN has attempted to capture and record, in pictures and words, one year in the life of this play . . . So, after months of work and planning, Owensboro High school proudly presents . . . Our High School, 1978. The name of our play, and theme of this yearbook, originated as a sidekick of the renowned Broadway drama, Our Town , which has been praised among the top ten productions in our country since its premiere in 1938. These two plays have a great deal in common. Our Town is portrayed on a simple two-stage setting, the props being a couple of distantly separated tables and two sets of chairs. By the same token, Our High School is composed of two distantly separated stages, the 9-10 and the 11-12 Centers. Each story deals with the triumphs and tragedies of the two distant, yet closely tied identities, two households separated with- in a city, two schools in the same situation. Although in both instances the two stages are independent of one another, they still have a strong tie that binds them as one. In Our Town the two households are bound by love, while in Our High School we're all working to preserve the dignity and esteem woven into the halls of OHS. - By Brent Price F'-'- ,gyil as Swim 1300 Booth A 1800 Frederica Act I - In The Spotlight Act II - Spice Of School Life Act III - Victories And Defeats Cast Of Characters Supporting Cast uwnmsniigintffxiu scuunr. luv I U I -W! , as is The presence of a devil always S sparks enthusiasm at OHS sport- kyk- ing events.

Our High School had its share of achievements in 1978. From the first black brother-sister combination as presidents of the Student Councils to the state president of junior Classical League to three National Merit semi- finalists, the list of accomplishments could go on-and-on through a variety of areas. Athletic success is always a part of the accomplishments at OHS and the school recorded a number of big victo- ries during the year. Each year, and 1977-78 was no ex- ception, OHS students add to the col- lection of all-important memorabilia that makes the year unique. From the opening tardy bell in late August until graduation diplomas are handed out at the end of the school year, OHS students are on their toes toward achieving and making a name for Owensboro High and for their own personal goals. Although the students were persis- tent in their endeavors for OHS to excel, at times it was like fighting a losing battle. The desire to achieve ex- cellence in ALL categories didn't al- ways prove fruitful . . . So is the story of Our High School's strife for achievement in 1978. - By Brent Price Openingfs Football at OHS is a big tradition.

The act covers a wide cross-section of scenes, some happy, some tearful, some in the dead of winter, some in the hot fall weather. The spotlight shifted between Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors, but was focused on the Senior cast members for much of the act. 4 Many of the Cast members In the Spotlight throughout the year made a great contribution to Our High School, 1978, but like almost every play they had their share of hams Costumed in the latest fashions, students portrayed their everyday roles as ordinary students fighting the hussle and bussle of school life. ' The spotlight also shifted to the students' lives outside of school. Memories are spotlighted through flashbacks from teary-eyed queens to loud-mouthecl cheerleaders during crucial games. Intermission provided the musi- cians of OHS their turn In the Spot- light. Students In the Spotlight made it through the year-long play another year olderg and some claimed to be wiser. Spotlight performances were some of the most memorable scenes in the 1977-78 showing of Our High School. - By Karla Weller Openingfg fPages 62-751 As the lights come down around her, Junior Wanda Bender raises her hand to the crowd as the band per- forms. 10x Opening Junior Lori Bowlds strives to keep the Red Devil spirit up during a football game.

Without this act, school would con- tinue, but would not have the spice, Can you imagine never having bake sales, competition with other schools, club officers, dances, magazine drives, Rose Curtain plays or car smashes? Yes, all these things that make school worthwhile and interesting would not exist if it weren't for OHS clubs and organizations. During the scenes from this act, hundreds of cast members were learn- ing while enjoying themselves. With the variety of clubs and orga- nizations offered at Our High School, 1978, there was something to appeal to everyone among the cast of characters. Clubs and organizations add the extra to school life that makes it fun that gives you a break from the everyday classroom learning and makes the act appropriately titled Spice of School Life. - By Kelly Keohane Openingfll Qliiiogories i ts fPages 78-1175 Stretching high for the tip off against ' county rival Apollo is junior Barbara Hinton 4225. 12x Opening is rr. 3' V..

Act III is titled Victories and Defeats as that summarized a vital part of Our High School, 1978. . Owensboro High School's sports program lived up to its winning repu- tation again in 1978, posting far more victories than defeats. OHS is known in Kentucky as one of the winningest sports schools in the Commonwealth and the 1978 teams followed the tradition-written script of the past. Act III focuses on football, basket- ball, baseball and tennis, but there are many more never recognized stars in this act that starts in the early fall and continues until the time school is out in early June. Year-in-and-year-out, Our High School is one point, one touchdown or one run ahead when the contest ends. Part of the domination in the act is attributed to the winning tradition of the past. Victories or Defeats is simply the final outcome of a sporting contest and Owensboro High has always been strong in the victory column. The 1977-78 script for Victories and Defeats'f is like all the others for OHS teams. The scenes from the act record victory after victory amid our enthusiastic, cheering throng of fans. - By Steve Mclntyre Qpeningf Lunch-time friendship is enjoyed at the 11-12 Center by Lisa Mor- gan fleftl, Kelly Nall, Joy Gaddis and Diane Karr.

Character action takes place in the 11-12 Center hallway as Terry Riney talks to Stayce Gross at her locker. ur Cast of Characters played a vital role in Our High School, 1978. They held the most important part in the live show that was staged at the two centers. Without the characters, there would be no tradition, achievement, sports trophies, or demon-obsessed cast members. Every person at OHS is recognized in Our High School, 1978. These cast characters are commonly known as Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen. Seniorfse-nyar! A senior is one who graduates from Our High School after four years of frustration, hard work and entertainment. Gradu- ation meant more for most seniors than just getting out of school. It became the beginning of a new play role. That little piece of paper called a diploma enabled many cast mem- bers to get a new role in the play called Life.

There you have the four sets of characters for our demon-obsessed cast members who make up Our High School, 1978. - By Scot Gaither Opening! SUI?

The success of Our High School, 1978 can be attributed to the fine per- formances of the Supporting Cast. While the Cast of Characters were usually the ones in the spotlight, the Supporting Cast held a major role in making the live three-act play such a big success. The scenes involving the support- ing cast shift back and forth from ad- ministrators to teachers and stage- hands to the inside of the classroom. At the 9-10 Center there were 77 administrators, counselors, teachers and librarians. Stagehands also had a big part in Our High School, 1978. Nine custo- dians at the 11-12 Center and 10 at the 9-10 Center kept the setting unclut- tered. The 14 lunchroom workers at the 9-10 Center and 10 cooks at the 11- 12 Center supplied the food that kept the Supporting Cast performing. Each school had five secretaries that helped keep the act together. No matter what title they held in the Supporting Cast in 0ur High School - 1978, they held a starring role in the success of the year-long production. - By Stacy Elliott Openingf17 f New Qkzuqmcg 0 513136193 QSEMIQQWQU Z U Ml'SlIlI' UIISI. .PIlI'llll'IlliIl!I MI WBIIIHISIUS rr.nnAnM1ss:nN 25 QE mg 1 SEJQTLUQQEQ :Q 19 18 'ogl oo: Q oo 0 ooo a' N UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU U UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU U U U ' 0 U3 Cl- lllc ' M Ql ' 3 U U U U U U cgi ' 1 r r gp o U . 0 U - l l U U v v U U U U U 0 - ' o g III' as ..

Cast members worked on the set Monday through Friday, waiting for the good times of Friday and Saturday nights. There were private parties and school parties for the various clubs and organizations. A private party took many forms. In some cases, it was a poker party with the guys, or a dinner party with the girls, or just a few couples watch- ing Home Box Office instead of going to the movies. Private cast parties also consisted of an invitation - only party such as a sweet 16, never been kissed party, a surprise party or a going away for your best friend party. A BYOB fbring your own boozel party was also part of the scene for some cast members. Many other types of parties, rang- ing from Pizza get-togethers to Chip, Dip and Popcorn parties, to parked car parties to Slumber Par- ties were held by cast members. Parties were not restricted to the weekend as many post-game parties were held during the year. Various clubs had parties during the year. The French Club had a Spook House party, the Junior Classical League sang Christmas carols. The Junior-Senior Prom provided the setting for many parties. Many students attended parties before and after prom. Parties were not restricted to cast members as the Supporting Cast held a Christmas party at the Executive Inn and many other private get-togethers for the Supporting Cast were held during the year. A party is defined as A social gath- ering and Our High School, 1978 had its share of after-school entertain- ment. - By Kathy Kunau Zo! Parties Y. x.

A typical Friday night schedule for an OHS student was: - 7 p.m. - Drop by the Sonic for a quick bite to eat. - 7:20 p.m. - Pick up friends for a friendly cruise through McDonalds parking lot. A . - 7:30 p.m. - Drive past a friend's or enemy's house fwhichever the case may bel and lay on the horn. Drive back by the same house two or three more times. - 7:50 p.m. - Cruise McDonalds again looking for familiar faces. - 8 p.m. - Drive around in search of a friendly drag race down Frederica. - 9 p.m. - Head for destination, whether it be a movie, C.W. Skeeter's Boogeshak or maybe a party where the rest of the night is spent. If the student is male and has a fe- male friend in the car, then he may decide to take a detour through Fisher Road on the way to his destination. Un fact, sometimes Fisher Road is his destinationll. Some students spent their spare time on wheels - the wheels on their roller skates. For them, United Skates of America or Skateland was their hangout. Other students spent their time along the same lines, but instead of a wooden floor and wheels, they pre- ferred ice and blades. These students spent their time at the Sportscenter ice skating. With four local movie theatres and a number of drive-ins, the average OHS student could usually find at least one motion picture that appealed to them. . Moonlight bowling was an attrac- tion to some OHS students. If one didn't strike out there, a pool hall- pinball emporium was conveniently located across the street. Concerts in Owensboro were few, but surrounding cities had some top- name entertainment - if one was lucky enough to get the tickets and the keys to the car! 22 fAfter Hours were being enforced by the city police. Bowling was a popular pasttime for many OHS students. One of the many avid bowlers at OHS was Sophomore Roger Bostick. With so many activities to choose from, it appears that OHS students were on the move all the time, but there were two main factors that de- termined whether or not they were ac- tive - transportation and money. If either of these factors were hard to come by, the student may have had to decide on the low-keyed life of a TV show or a good book. - By Karla Weller '- Among the new hangouts for OHS cast members in 1978 was the Sonic Burger, com- plete with drive-in car service. For some of the cast members leisure hours were best spent gliding on wheels at the USA Skating Rink. Of the two roller skating rinks in Owensboro, United Skates of America drew the largest crowds, not only on the weekends, but also during the weekday afterhours. I Pinball Wizards have a ball around town, as all the bowling alleys, discos and many shopping centers boast numerous machines. Some students chose the concentration and skill that was involved in pinballing rather than a physical type of relaxation. Many Boogie Nights were spent by discoing cast members at the Friday night place to be C.W.

Music, Movies Occupied OHS Students' Spare Time In '78 Movies, television, books and music occupied much of stu- dents' time in 1977-78. Music is the heartbeat of teenagers. They were awakened by the sound of a radio alarm clock. And like Charlie Brown's friend, Linus, many students have a security blanket in the form of a transistor radio. OHS students wore t-shirts, belt buckles and patches with their favorite singers or rock groups on them. Once home from school the family stereo was bombarded with an assortment of records and tapes. Parents may have even forgotten the color of their teenager's bedroom walls for the number of posters that now more re- semble wallpaper. Top selling albums of 1977 included Rumours, by Fleetwood Mac, Frampton Comes Alive, by Peter Frampton, Year of the Cat, recorded by Al Stewart, Hotel California, performed by the Eagles, Night Moves, by Bob Segar and the Silver Bullet Band and Love Gun, a hit by Kiss. Roddy McDowell's tribute to Elvis Presley, The King Is Gone, sold over three million copies as a single. Tonight's the Night, by Rod Stewart, became the seventh top single of all time in 1977. Happy Days, a comical look at the fifties, continued to be one of the most popular television series, surpassed only by its spinoff, Laverne and Shirley. Henry Winkler, who played the cool, bad guy Fonzie of Happy Days, performed in his first starring role in Heroes with Sally Fields. Welcome Back, Kotter, another top series, produced an actor named John Travolta. He was the star of Saturday Night Fever. The Bee Gee's or Brothers Gibb wrote and sang the movie's musical score, which contained their single Staying Alive. The youngest Gibb, 19 year-old Andy struck out on his own with I Just Want To Be Your Everything became Bill- board's number one song of the year. Not many shows that weren't comedies or crime dramas dominated the television ratings. Family was one of the few exceptions. Kristy McNichol, or Family's Buddy, won an Academy Award while only 15 years-old. Star Wars was the top movie in '77 as it broke the sales set by Jaws Close Encounters of the Third Kind was released toward the end of the year and made a big impact among student viewers. Demon infected students spent much of their spare time in classes deeply engrossed with a child monster, ESP or other strange obsessions. It's Alive, Coma and Touch No Cat are some of those books that had so many of OHS students' attention. ABC made television history in 1977 with Roots Alex Haley's best-seller about his family history held the country's attention for eight nights and a total of 13 hours. - By Suzie Bartlett 24 fMusic, Movies Beverly Durham enjoys the pasttime of many OHS students - watching programs and some of the favorites Of Students- television.

W E GWUWMES Jeans Were No. 1 Item Of Clothing Costumes worn by the cast of char- acters played an important part in set- ting the stage for Our High School, 1978. As in recent years, jeans were the number one item of clothing in the OHS students' closet. The most popu- lar brands were Levi, Male and Faded Glory. Big bells were the favorite style, but straight legs came back into style, mostly among the girls. Although khakis were popular, jeans still out- sold them three to one. Jeans were worn with bulky sweat- ers, cowl necks and waist length jack- ets in a variety of materials and bright colors. The popularity of the movie Star Wars even touched the fashion world by bringing the colors metallic silver and gold to shirts, pants and jackets. Boots were in again in '78. Students wore them with gauchos, skirts or with pants tucked inside them. Al- though boots were popular, Famolares were the shoes worn by most stu- dents. They came in many styles and colors and were seen on both guys and gals. They came in flats, heels and even boots. Hair styles at OHS were basically the same as last year. The wedge was seen in variations of styling and length among both the girls and the boys. The Farrah Fawcett look was still seen at OHS with different lengths of hair full of curls and waves. Hair was also pulled away from the face with combs and hair bands. Stick pins were also a popular ac- cessory. They were worn on cowl necks and collars. Initial stick pins were the favorite among many cast members' - By Marsha Tanner Cold winter weather brought heavier clothes and Freshman James Beard was one of many students who wore a ski mask while riding home from school on his bicycle. 2, l+7 Faded Glory jeans were popular with most students and junior Deirdre Carbon was no exception. leans were still No. 1 with most OHS students. 26x Fashions ,jj ..4v:.n1s- ,jj Famolare shoes were the most popular shoes at OHS.

The date was Nov. 18 and the event was the first Swap Day at Owens- boro High School. Parents were allowed to replace their son or daughter on that day and over 150 parents at the 9-10 Center and 125 at the 11-12 Center served as stand-ins for their child. Comments of parents indicated they enjoyed the day. My initial reaction was horror! was the reply of Mrs. Nita Hastings, mother of Sophomore Juli Hastings. An excellent effort in getting par- ent participation. lt is too bad the working parents cannot be involved in the Swap Day, was the thought of Mrs. Kay Weller, mother of Sopho- more Karla Weller. I think it was great. lt gives the parents some insight on what the stu- dents are learning and what they are doing in school, commented George Baughman, father of Junior Denise Baughman. The parents seemed to think the school system has changed since they were in school. Mrs. Joyce Beasley, mother of Sen- ior Penny Beasley, remarked: There seems to be a better rapport between teachers and students. lt has broadened so much to incor- porate the old 3R's along with today'-3 techniques in preparation for the world they will step into, added Joe Tanner, father of Junior Marsha Tan- ner. I Mrs. Cora Anna Kirk, mother of Senior Judy Kirk, explained: There is so much more freedom and more dis- cussion with teachers. Swap Day was described by the school administrators as a very suc- cessful attempt to get the parents in- volved in the school. Bill VanWink1e, principal of the 11- 12 Center, summed it up: The par- ents had a positive attitude about the day, the students seemed to enjoy having the parents in school and teachers indicated they felt the day was worthwhile. Different classmates appeared in the classes on Swap Day.

Now I've put on too much weight To cram myself into this little seat Cotta get rid of a bit more meat. Glad my son Dawson is a skinny squirt For when he sits here it doesn't hurt.

Q4 oo fovot on 'Sticking It Out' With Old Man Winter Snow continuing tonight and through tomorrow with an additional eight inches. This was not an unusual weather forecast for the Owensboro area in early January. School was closed a total of 13 days due to the bad weather and forced stu- dents to makeup days during the annual spring vacation time in April. Snow was on the ground for 63 con- secutive days. A total of 41 inches of snow fell during the year. The worst snowstorm in 60 years hit Owensboro on I an. 18 and brought the city to a standstill. In a 24-hour period, 14 inches of snow fell in Owensboro, which was the largest snowfall in the city since the 15-inch snow in 1918. The big snow caused cars to get stranded in snow drifts, and roofs on houses and porches were caving in be- cause of the heavy snow. Activity in the Owensboro area was limited in January and early February. The main action was the shoveling of snow, or stranded motorists attempting to escape the snow drifts. School activi- ties were cancelled and many students were looking forward to the opening of school, for the first time. - Things ,were beginning to become normal again when a real blizzard hit the Owensboro area Jan. 25. Kentucky was declared in a State of Emergency and traffic was not allowed to travel on the Owensboro .roads. It was the first time in many years that snow caused taxis to turn off their' engines. The storm was considered a blizzard be- cause winds blew up to 45 MPH and snow drifted up to five feet. The blizzard of '78 will continue to be a much-discussed topic and one that OHS students will relate to their chil- dren . .. and grandchildren. - By Scot Gaither 3 fBl1zzard of '78 sv A snowsled built for two?

The prom was held at the Executive Inn-Rivermont for the first time, departing from the traditional Sportscenter setting. A The decorations all pertained to Hollywood and the mov- ies as students drove up to the entrance of the Executive Inn- Rivermont, a marquee shown brightly announcing Open- ing Night in Hollywood. Inside, one eight foot tall Oscar stood on each side of the stage. A giant size movie reel covered one wall, while silent movies were shown on another wall. Photographs of movie personalities on silver stars hung from the ceiling. The tables were decorated with top hat, gloves, cane and a long stem rose. Ten sophomores dressed in tux, top hats and canes served as hostesses for the prom. The hostesses jobs ranged from handling out programs to serving refreshments. The punch was served in champagne glasses to keep in tune with the theme. Hallelujah provided the music for the prom. During a band break, Seniors Robbie Holder and Tom Roy per- formed. Robbie sang two songs, one he composed, while Tom accompanied him on the viola.

The 1978 OHS seniors felt that three students in particular repre- sented a wide range of categories. Jackie Mayfield and Tom Roy cor- nered the market on the superlatives by being the first students to win three categories each. Terry Prater was elected to receive two superlative ti- tles. The multiple award winners came after a policy change by Student Council. ln the past when a student had won more than one title, the win- ner took the category of his choice and the other titles were passed along to the runners-up. J 'The Best Leadership titles went to Jackie Mayfield and Terry Prater. Jackie and salutatorian Bleckley Dobbs were named as the couple that were Most Likely to Succeed. Bleck- ley was also a National Merit Scholar. Most Bashful went to Debra Peay and Scott Plain., 1 Two musically inclined students Senior Superlatives were named as the Most Talented at OHS. Tom Roy, who served as the president of Chorus, and Glenda Dahlquist, who led the OHS band as the drum major. Tom was selected to receive the Best Looking award along with Kathy Kelly. Terry Prater and Tammy Whit- tinghill were named as the Most Friendly seniors as Terry received his second title. Girls' basketball player Janice Johnson and basketball, football and baseball star Mark Rickard came away with the Most Athletic title after the votes were counted. Mary Lois Shown and Robbie Holder were the good-natured recipi- ents of the Biggest Flirt title. The Happy-Go-Lucky couple elected was Mary Dean Sanders and Danny Dunn. Jackie Mayfield and Tom Roy closed the voting by being named as the Best All-Around seniors. The fi- nal superlative fit the two after they had already won two other categories. By Judy Kirk Love, love, love, according to OHS seniors, is best expressed by Biggest Flirts Mary Lois Shown and Robbie Holder. x g A A . jackie Mayfield and Tom Roy swept the election for senior superlatives, winning in three categories. Jackie was named Best Leadership, Best All- Around and Most Likely to Succeed. This was the first time that more than one' person was represented in more than one category. Glenda Dahlquist was voted Most Talented, Bleckley Dobbs was Most Likely to Succeed and Kathy Kelly was selected as Best Looking in the voting for Senior Superlatives. The other half of the honor was won by Jackie Mayfield or Tom Roy in their three-category sweep. The class of '78 chose Janice johnson and Mark Rickard as Most Athle- tic. Janice has been on the girls basketball team for four years and led the girls in rebounds. Mark has played football, basketball and baseball. ' Senior Superlatives! 39 lciasq' 5 moles 1978 Classes Elect Favorite Two-somes As students waited for the an- nouncement of the Mr. and Miss elections, they wondered if their own choices would be the selection of the majority of the class. I The majority of the Senior class voted Terry Prater and Lori Wester- field as Mr. and Miss Senior. Terry was Senior class and band president and Lori was captain of the Varsity cheerleaders. The Junior class selected Kenny Russelburg and Bonnie Thompson as Mr, and Miss Junior. Kenny was a member of FFA and DECA and Bon- nie is a member of the Band Auxiliary Corps. The Sophomore class elected Kandi Bowman and Derek Hinton as Mr. and Miss Sophomore. Not only do Derek and Kandi have the Mr. and Miss honors in common, they are also going together.

A After being in center stage at Our High School all year, the 435 seniors had their diplomas in hand following commencement activities at the Owensboro Sportscenter and were headed for a variety of new play roles. Following the handshakes, the hugs and kisses and the picture-taking ses- sion by parents, the students left for a party at the Family Y or various other locations. After 12 long years, the time had arrived. The high school diploma was in hand and a new role was ready to emerge. For some of the cast members, this emersion would come too soon, for others it would be a long-awaited birth of a new kind of freedom. Commencement provided the cli- max to the year. The name of each member of the graduating class was called and they came forward to re- ceive their diploma from a member of the Owensboro Board of Education. The seven valedictorians and salu- tatorian make their mini speeches and Student Council President Jackie Mayfield said the benediction and the elated graduates headed out gate 5 at the Sportscenter. On May 28, the seniors had warmed up for commencement with the baccalaureate program. The Rev. I.V. Case, director of missions for the Daviess-McLean Baptist Asso- ciation and father of senior George Case, gave the baccalaureate sermon. A variety of moods and expressions were mirrored on the faces of the stu- dents as they departed the Sports- center following Commencement.

Each one is separate and unique, but to- gether they provide an outlet for stu- dents to express themselves and learn more about other students through their expressions. ' There is a lot of time and effort involved in the printing of a year- book, the largest OHS publication. For example: typing, identifying stu- dent pictures, indexing names, selling ads, taking pictures and thinking up new ideas are all a part of completing the 248-page yearbook. The editor of the 1977-78 Owens- boroan was Junior Brent Price. Junior Stacy Elliott and Senior Kelly Keo- hane served as associate editors. The whole idea of a yearbook was summed up by Price: The sole job of a yearbook is to bring to life, and keep from dying, a year that had special and personal meanings to each stu- dent It's impossible to capture all the important moments that pass by in the year, but we try. The 1977 Owensboroan was named the Best Overall High School year- book in the Mark of Excellence competition at Western Kentucky 481 Publications University.

Props, make-up, costumes, stage- lights, dress rehearsals, opening night, closing night these ele- ments help to form a lifestyle for a number of OHS cast members who are involved in theatre productions. Established in 1916, the Rose Cur- tain Productions have lived to become the oldest club in the state of Ken- tucky. In its many years of drama pro- ductions, Rose Curtain has adopted certain traditions which have been carried down through generations . . . until 1978. Each spring, eager theatre-goers from Owensboro and the surrounding area flock to the 11-12 Center audito- rium to view the outcome of long hours of rehearsal and preparation, all wrapped up in a musical. The controversial announcement was made early in the school year: there would be no spring musical at OHS in 1978.

Earlier in the school year, the orga- nization presented its annual fall pro- duction, this year's play being In- herit the Wind. This play, a dramati- zation of the Scope's Monkey trials which occurred because of the much- debated Darwin's Theory of Evolu- tion, involved a cast of 30 individuals, and played for a total of three nights, Nov. 10-12. After pondering over the two plays and the whole year for the Rose Cur- tain Players, president Ernie Adams summed up the clubs' in the spot- light position during 1978: I felt we've put on some interest- ing plays that were very entertaining to the public.

That was the climax for an eventful and exciting year for the OHS chorus. Aside from the regular, daily rehearsals at both centers, many cast members who participated in the OHS chorus put in many long, hard, extra hours that contributed to the success of their organization. A typical Tuesday or Thursday morning for approximate- ly 25 members of the chorus began at 7:20 a.m. The Cham- ber Choir members met at this early hour to rehearse for the many special feature concerts which they gave all year. This elite group of singers, charging S100 for a performance, vocalized at several of the area churches, conventions and clubs during 1978. The 11-12 Advanced Choir gave many concerts, including ones for the area elementary schools, middle schools, Mt. Saint Joseph Academy and a Rotary Club dinner. This choir contained 94 members. The 9-10 Center beginning Choir had performances at Catholic High, and a few during the Christmas season. The two choruses combined to perform at each of the Christmas tours. The Beginning Choir was made up of 64 Sophomores and Freshmen. The students who paticipated in the chorus program were given a grade just like any academic class at OHS. The most exciting one event for the 11-12 Choir was to be awarded the first place honor in the National Competition at Atlanta.

This was the second year that Young served style number, California Dreamin', before a large crowd at an OHS home as field commander of the band. Bama mftxxe mx f3,'3fT?.1n.fi.1!irHf.Eef:.2 Many cast members at OHS may not realize the large number of extra- curricular hours put in by band mem- bers. Throughout marching season, the average band student could be found devoting anywhere from 11 to 15 hours a week marching on a football practice field. All this just to bring those half-time shows on Friday nights and perform in the many com- petitions around the Tri-State area. The band finished the year with two second place awards and a third place in field competition. All of this couldn't have been possi- ble without the vast amount of prep- arations and arrangements that were made by the band parents, who met once each month. The band boosters, headed by Bill Dahlquist, president, helped with the organization of the fourth annual OHS Invitational Marching Contest. Aside from gale-force winds, and torrents of cold rain, 16 bands partici- pated in the fall event at Rash Stadi- um. No year can be passed over without a good ole' fund-raising drive. Loyal members of the band and corps were out trudging the streets, selling cheese and chili supper tickets. The annual band chili supper was held on Oct. 14. The gourmet cheese netted the band close to 52,500 During the spring, the schedule for the average band member got a little tougher. Solo and ensemble competi- tion, along with the annual concert- band competition, joined with the yearly ROTC review, resulted in much practice and preparation from 567 Band the students. Senior Terry Prater served as 1977- 78 band president. Another major activity that in- volved 90 percent of the band students was Pep Band. The Pep Band was always at OHS home basketball games, providing the spirit and pep needed to win ball games. The OHS band played for the grand opening of the new Towne Square Mall and participated in the Owens- boro Christmas parade, and was the Honor Band for the 1977 Veteran's Day Review held in downtown Owensboro.

Willis Brooks. When school begins in the fall, the returning cadets are assigned leadership positions and their classes pertain mostly to leadership. The classes for the first year members are an introduction to ROTC, which includes customs and courtesies, wear of the uniform and respect of the flag. In the fall much time is spent on the drill field. This allows the ranking members to gain experience in leader- ship and it helps the new members learn to take and carry out orders. The drill teams, color guards, rifle teams and saber teams are organized early in the year as they perform at ball games and the Veteran's Day Parade. Members of ROTC visited a military installation in October. During the winter months, classes are held inside and include map reading, methods of instruction and marks- manship. During markmanship, all cadets fire the rifle for qualification as marksman, sharpshooter or expert. The fir- ing is held on the range at the 11-12 center. The rifle team competes with other schools during the winter months in home and visiting matches. A Commissions Dinner was held in January at which the superintendent of schools fDr. James C. I-Iilliardj presented commissions to each of the officers. During the spring, the drill team and color guard prepare for the National Drill Meet which is held at Western Ken- tucky University the final week in March. Also held in March is the social event, known as the Military Ball, in which a dance is held and a queen crowned.

The event is the Annual Military Review. During this Review, awards are presented to outstanding cadets by the Army, the American Legion, the Reserve Officers Associ- ates and the Sons of the American Revolution.

Si l Brother-Sister Team Rules The Two Student Councils For the first time in OHS history, a brother and sister were the presidents of the two Students Councils. Senior Jackie Mayfield and Sopho- more Floyd Mayfield won the top honors at each center. Jackie liked the idea of Floyd fol- lowing in her footsteps: I never knew he could take on a lot of responsibil- ity, but he has shown me that he is very capable of taking on a leadership position. Jackie and Floyd both feel that their year in Student Council has been worthwhile. Being involved in Stu- dent Council has helped both Floyd and me get along with people better and realize what togetherness really means, said Jackie. Although I did not get to fullfill all the things I had planned for the year, I have enjoyed working with my fellow classmates. This has been a truly great year, commented Floyd. The purpose of Student Council is to teach leadership and responsibility, besides being an outlet for the student body to promote its ideas. The OHS Student Council is a sponsor of many events, the two big- gest being the Magazine drive and the 9-10 Center cake auction. The Magazine Drive topped the 530,000 goal which set a new school record. The money OHS earned from the sale will go to clubs, athletics and scholarships. The 9-10 Center collected 516,347.89 and the 11-12 Center collected 514,226.97. High salesperson at the 9- 10 was freshman Amy Iracane, with 5359 sales and at the 11-12 was Scott Plain with 5499 in subscriptions. The 9-10 Cake Auction was post- poned because of bad weather in Jan- uary and rescheduled for April. Three unusal cakes netted the high- est prices. A big Snoopy cake sold for 514, Leon the Lemon Lion, went for 515, as did the largest cake in the auction, complete with edible flags and figures. Other events sponsored by the stu- dent Council were the Football and Basketball Homecoming programs, Teacher Appreciation Week, election of Senior Superlatives, Hat Day and Mr. and Miss elections. - By Kelly Keohane 62!Clubs And Organizations Tom Kurz, advisor for the 11-12 Center Student Council, explains the details of the magazine drive to the student body in an assembly in the - ,tg Hat Day was instituted by the 11-12 Student Council in late April and students wore a wide variety of hats as illustrated by Junior Laurel Carrico. i 'Ks auditorium.

NHS, TWC, and NSHS: Three Clubs Using Hard Work As Key To Success Hard work, honor and student involvement are common characteristics of the National Hon- or Society, Teens Who Care and the National Spanish Honor Society. All three OHS clubs were active in a variety of school and away-from-school events in 1977-78. Teens Who Care and National Honor Society were again the leaders in volunteer hours contri- buted by OHS students. Along with doing 15 service hours, the Nation- al Honor Society accepts members who have maintained a high grade point average. Each member is required to serve on one of the committees which is in charge of such activities as the rummage sale, sponsoring the Christmas and Spring dances, the carnation sale, a car wash and the spring picnic. The sponsors for the National Honor Society were Joan Robertson and Steve Whitsell. Teens Who Care contributed over 2,000 volun- teer hours during the year. TWC was formed so that young people could use their time and skills to help other people and so students could learn more about mental health. Through Teens Who Care I have found that people with special needs don't need my sympa- thy, but they need my love and understanding, said Lynette Miller, Teens Who Care president. Some of the major activities for Teens Who Care included Bingo parties for the senior citi- zens, collecting for the Kentucky Lung Associ- ation, Christmas caroling at the nursing homes, a Halloween party for the mentally retarded chil- dren and fixing Thanksgiving baskets. In November, the OHS Teens Who Care spon- sored a regional Awareness Conference on mental retardation at the 11-12 Center. At the 11th annual Teens Who Care state meet- ing, OHS president Lynette Miller was the re- cipient of the 5250 KARC Scholarship and TWC vice-president Pam Abrams was the recipient of the S250 Kearney Campbell Scholarship. Also, Pam Simon, the TWC sponsor, was named the TWC Outstanding Advisor for 1977-78. Juniors with an over all grade point average of 3.7 and seniors with 3.5 over all grade point aver- age and who maintain an A average inad- vanced Spanish are eligible for the National Spanish Honor Society. The main purpose of the National Spanish Honor Society is to further the usage of the Span- ish language through conversation and to honor students who are outstanding in Spanish. Besides inducting nine new members, other activities of the National Spanish Honor Society included selling candy, having bake sales, car washes and also sponsoring the 1977 Football Dance. The sponsor for the National Spanish Honor Society was Gladys Combs. - By Pam Abrams 6 fClubs And Organizations - Vg 'Q WWW. . bm 5iwvvm.3ap,,, 2 t M 2 at x M I f 'side it J is ' f. Sw -s .' F.

Interact is an all-male club which follows the sports teams at OHS and promotes school spirit. The sponsor of the Interact Club was Ron Peyton. The Interact Club had 49 members. The club met every first and third Wednesday of the month at the Ro- tary Club for dinner and discussion about the progress of the club. What do students learn that enter the Interact Club? They learn school support, good moral leadership and participation in a school related topic, said Club President Nicky Nicholas. The Interact Club tried to find pro- jects along the 1977-78 year that would build the club, as well as mon- ey made in the building of the club in general. The Interact Club was in debt at the start of the year due to money spent by the members last year, ex- plained Nicholas. Spirit In Action is an all girls club which promotes school spirit. The president of the club was Susan Shacklett. The SIA was responsible to work with other students and faculty mem- bers to promote school spirit. SIA met every other week during 1977-78. The club had 87 members. Dr. Roy Woodward was the sponsor for the club. Some of the things the SIA did was to decorate the halls of the school be- fore a big game, decorate for parties afterward and just back all of the sports teams at OHS. Student Union is a new club at OI-IS. The student Union was former- ly the Black Student Union. Now the club is open to anyone of either race. The purpose of Student Union is to learn patience and responsibility. Money is raised by such events as car washes and record hops. The mon- ey will go towards a summer prom.

'Speaking In Tongues' Was A Club Requirement What four OHS clubs spoke differ- ent languages, but had a common goal? The answer would be the French, German, Spanish and Latin clubs. All four clubs represented a differ- ent language, but each worked to de- velop fluency and interest in their lan- guage area. Halloween Spook Houses and food tasting parties were just part of the activities experienced by the French Club. The happening for the German Club involved the Singing Valen- tines. For less than a dollar, members of the German Club would call a friend and wish them a Happy Valen- tine's Day by singing a love song. In April, several members of the German Club entered state competi- tion after placing first in regional. The winners were: Kevin Winstead, second,prose reading and third, oral proficiency, Bart Rhodes, second, oral proficiency, Pam Pulliam, second, oral proficiency, Lisa Nix and Pam Wade, third, costume award, Colleen O'Con- nor, first, costume award and second, food award. The Junior Classical League is not an organization for classical piano players, but is another name for the Latin Club. The main purpose of the Junior Classical League is for students who know Latin to get together and share their ideals and knowledge and also to take what they have learned in class and use it in a fun way. At the JCL State Convention in Louisville, Junior Steve Nelson was elected the state President for 1977-78 and also ten members won recogni- tion in state competition.

Truckin' . . . Worshippin' . . And Studyin' . , . OHS students have a variety of clubs and organizations that they can join at the two centers. The varied clubs are best illustrated by such groups as the Bicycle Club, the Good News Fellowship and the Junior Investigators. While Junior In- vestigators relates to students in American History at the 11-12 Center, the Good News Fellowship is located at the 9-10 Center and was formerly the Christian Student Union. The OHS Bicycle Club was spon- sored by William Roach, an industrial arts teacher at the 9-10 Center. The club met twice a month in warm weather and once a month in the win- ter for rides. A Road Rally Race and an Ecology Ride were activities during the school year. A camping trip was taken at the end of the year. Good News Fellowship met every morning at 7:30 a.m. and was spon- sored by Special Education teachers Ken Roberts and Sally Rudisell. Some activities that took place dur- ing the past year were a skating party, picnic and a hike. A similar type of religious group was at the 11-12 Center and was called Christians-In-Action Margaret Chance and Mary Jane Sanford were co-sponsors the group. The 11-12 Center had two Junior Investigator groups. One group was headed by Ella Jones, the other was led by Sandra Good. Both teach American History. Junior Investigator meetings took place every four to six weeks and were highlighted by students reporting on a topic. The highlight of the year was the Spring Banquet held May 25 at the Old House.

OHS Cast Members Who Were Literally 'In The Spotlight' Cast characters who were members of Rose Curtain or Thespians had dual roles in Our High School, 1978. They performed on the theatri- cal stage as well as their roles in every- day school life. Inherit the Wind, The Saga of Sagebrush Sal and Finders Keepers were presented by the Rose Curtain Players in 1977-78. After every production, the cast members got together for a cast party. One party for the cast members was held at a fellow Rose Curtainer, Mar- tha Meachams' house, but the cast party for Sagebrush Sal was held on the 11-12 Center stage. The annual Rose Curtain-Thespian banquet was held at the home of George Greer. All the members of Rose Curtain and Thespians got to- gether for the banquet and reminisced about the year. Working on Rose Curtain and Thespians involved practices until late at night, while trying to keep up with school, jobs, etc. Noel Patton sponsored both Rose Curtain and Thespians. Rose Curtain members who devot- ed 100 productive hours and who worked on at least two full produc- tions were entitled to be a member of Thespians. The prospective members must go through an initiation period. It wasn't unusual to see a student walking through the halls with a heavy plaque on a rope around their necks. They had to have Thespian members and administrators sign the plaques. Thespians is the honor society for theatre members. The purpose of Thespians is to sponsor events related to theatre, and to work toward the bet- terment of theatre. During the 1977-78 school year, Thespians sponsored the Fall Variety Show. I believe Thespians is an impor- tant organization in that it gives the theatre students a higher goal. Once this goal is achieved the theatre stu- dent knows he is a part of the elite, said Thespian president Kevin Bolin. The Thespian motto is 'Act well your part, there all the honor lies,' said Bolin.

Profit-making Was The 'Name Of The Game' For Three OHS Clubs Fund-raising programs, state con- ventions and competition were among the activities of the three vocational oriented clubs at OHS. Distributive Education Club of America QDECAJ, Future Homemak- ers of America KFHAJ and the Horti- culture Club were active in a variety of ways in 1977-78. Under the sponsorship of Nancy Graham, Leslie Barnhart, and Bill Lit- tle, DECA received 11 trophies at the DECA Regional Convention. The State Conference was held in Louisville at the Galt House March 10-12. Karen Wallis and Kevin Parks received a certificate for ranking high in their division. Sandra Kimmel, president of DECA, was named outstanding DECA member. The DECA Sweetheart pageant was not held this year since it is no longer a state event, but Karen Foster was se- lected by her classmates to enter the regional competition. Candy sales and a bazaar were among the money-making activities of DECA. Another working club, the Future Homemakers of America, led by president Latonya Little and sponsor Sandra Meschko, held bake sales, kitchen stationary sales and hosted the regional FHA meeting on April 25. Sherry Chapman, Holly Brown and instructor Susan Cornett attended the statewide FHA meeting at the Galt House in Louisville on April 21-22. FHA is a club for what the name implies - future homemakers. The horticulture students, under the direction of newcomer Ronnie Cooper, had a busy year. A Christmas poinsetta sale profit- ted 52,000 for horticulture. A spring plant sale also netted considerable profit. Participation in the State Fair com- petition highlighted the year for the horticulutre members.

I 'l'l'lli liNll After 21 Years And Nearly 900 Games, Hicks Ends Career Jack Hicks was coaching baseball at Owensboro High School before any of the present students were born. He started as head baseball coach in 1957 and ended a 21-year stint at the conclusion of the 1978 season. During this time, Hicks guided his teams to four state championships and Aa career win-lost record of 641 victories against 253 defeats. Hicks' teams won state titles in 1964, 1969, 1976 and 1977. He also had four teams that reached the state finals in 1957, 1960, 1962 and 1972. The best percentage record for a Hicks-coached team was in 1960 when the Red Devils had an amazing 42-3 mark, but lost to Paducah in the state finals. His worst overall season record was in 1971 when the Red Devils went 24- 18 and lost to Daviess County in dis- trict play. Hicks' bid for a third straight title in his final year as coach ended in a 2- 1 loss to the eventual state champion Lexington Tates Creek in the first game of the four-team state meet.

CTHE The end of a career and a year Owensboro's bid for a third straight state baseball championship went down the Creek. A Lexington school named Tates Creek ended the OHS season one game short of the championship. After beating Tates Creek 4-3 and 5-2 in regular season meetings and 16- 5 in the state finals last year, Owens- boro fell 2-1 in the opening round of the four-team state finals held at Chautauqua Park in Owensboro. Tony Mack Q9-11 went the distance on the mound for Lexington Tates Creek as he struck-out four Red Devil 1' ,Ulilgg zdlffw r, Eg IL, batters. Val Norris was the tough-luck mound loser for OHS as he took his second loss in 10 outings. The win- ning run came when Norris forced in a run as he hit a batter making it 2-1. OHS had a chance to win the game in the third .inning as Steve Sheldon and Barr Gordon singled with one out. Eric Anderson lined out to centerfield and Sheldon was doubled up, think- ing it would drop in for a base hit. Phil Hyland grounded out to the pitcher and the dreams of winning an- other state title went down the mcll-061 A fu' U creek. OHS finished the year at 24-12 in Iack Hicks' final year as coach of the baseball team. OHS, which had scored over 60 runs in the last six games, could hard- ly buy a run against Tates Creek. OHS had only four hits off Mack's pitch- ing. Owensboro, which had started the 1978 season losing six of eight games, came on late in the season to reach the state finals, but could not get by Tates Creek, the eventual state champs. - By Steve McIntyre ,1 TI-S40 Gtyulifgulc .f ,ftltlm ., so fbi.. up 2 x H ., if . elif-walk .17 Members of the 1978 baseball team that reached the opening round of the and Val Norris.

OHS beat Murray by the football score of 21-14 and defeated Paducah St. Mary's 6-0 in the finals of the semi-state. Regional action found OHS beating Providence 11-1 and South Hopkins 16-1 before the dramatic 9-8 victory over Henderson County in the region- al finals. In the semi-state, OHS scored 12 runs in the first inning to beat Mur- ray. Keith Anderson had a grand slam four-base error as the outfielder got his glove on the ball but dropped it over the fence for an error. Anderson had five RBI's. He also picked up the mound victory. Val Norris' pitching and home runs by Mark Rickard and Keith Anderson helped OHS beat Paducah St. Mary's. OHS used the combination of 10 hits and a three-hitter by Barr Gordon to wallop Providence. Val Norris hit two homers and had five RBI's in the win over South Hop- kins. OHS sent 14 batters to the plate in the fourth inning and scored nine times. Against Henderson County, OHS grabbed a quick 7-1 lead after four innings on Keith Anderson's grand- slam. Henderson County battled back to tie the score at 7-7 as the Colonels came up with their own grand-slam artist. OHS led at 8-7 before Hender- son came back to tie it again at 8-8. OHS grabbed a 9-8 lead and Val Norris came in from the outfield to save the game and regional title.

Varsity Baseballf81 Hnother Rivalry OHS Robbed Eagles Of Baseball District Owensboro High and Apollo have built a strong rivalry in basketball in recent years and another rivalry was born between the two schools this year. This time the rivalry game was baseball. The two teams battled in opening round play of the district baseball tournament on May 9. OHS won the contest 5-1 behind the pitching of Val Norris. The two teams had met three times before the district battle and Apollo had taken two of those regular season games. Apollo won 2-O and 9-1 in the regular season while Owensboro won 4-3. Norris got the victory in the district win over Apollo with three-hit pitch- ing. Keith Anderson was the man with the bat as he hit a two-run homer in the sixth inning to open up the game. Apollo committed three errors in the district opener as the wind was changing drastically throughout the afternoon. Apollo errors allowed two OHS runs to score, while Apollo's only run was scored on an OHS error. Owensboro High faced Daviess County in the finals of the district tournament on May 11. The game was close, but OHS won 7-4 for Jack Hicks' 20th district title. Jared Elliot started the game for OHS and had two doubles, driving in three OHS runs. Norris had to come on in relief for Elliot in the closing innings to strike out Steve Cripps and get Lynn North- ern to hit a pop out for the end of the contest. OHS began the 1978 season a little slow, losing four of the first five games. The biggest regular season victory was over Birmingham Banks Q18-23. OHS put together a pair of four- game win streaks through the 1978 season.

The Red Devils had won 21 in a row, and were sixth in the state. Coach Grant Talbott's dream of winning the state was short-lived as Barren County knocked OHS from the tourney in the quarter-finals. OHS defeated Anderson County 49-47 in the opening round before falling to Barren County 51-37. This marked the second straight year that OHS had fallen from the state meet in the quar- ter-finals. The girls finished the season with a 28-2 re- cord, the best won-lost record since girls' basket- ball was revived four years ago. Barren County used the inside game of 6-foot- 1 Belinda Bradley and 5-foot-11 Terri Wilkinson for the easy shots inside to beat the Red Devils. Owensboro shot a horrid 16 of 51 for 31 per- cent. The Red Devils hit only 5 out of 15 free throws. Barren County made 15 of 28 free throws. OHS fell behind early, and were back by 11 points at halftime. Things didn't get better in the third quarter as the girls fell behind by as many as 21 points. Starting the fourth quarter, the Devils were behind by 19 points. Then came an OHS rally that cut the lead to eight, but Barren County held on in the waning minutes to win. Nobody was in double figures for the Red Devils as the leading scorer was Willene Owsley with eight points. OHS led Anderson County at halftime 21-20. In the third quarter, the favored Red Devils out- scored their opponent 16-3 as they led at the end of the stanza 37-23. Anderson County cut the lead to one with less than a minute to go before june Harris made one of two free throws to secure the two-point win. Harris and Jeanette Rowan paced the Red Dev- ils with 13 and 12 points, respectively. Rowan finished the year as the top scorer and rebounder. She had 14.1 points and 15 rebounds per game.

In the regional, the Red Devils had no trouble at all as they rolled past all three opponents. In the opening game of the regional, a balanced scoring attack paced the girls as they beat Central City 63-43. Hancock County was the opponent for OHS in the semi-finals, and it was all OHS from the opening tipoff. The OHS girls led 10-0 early and went on to win 62-38. In the title game between OHS and Butler County, it was no contest as June Harris and Jeanette Rowan led the attack that ended Butler County's dream 78-44. Making the all-regional team were three OHS standouts - Jeanette Rowan, Willene Owsley and Barbara Hinton. The district tournament provided more competition than the regional. In the first game, OHS ran up a 16 point lead and never looked back as they destroyed Mount St. Joe 77-27. Arch-rival Apollo came to the Sports- center with devil's blood in their eyes but left the arena looking ahead to next season as OHS won 57-45. The Red Dev- ils built up an 18 point lead in the final quarter and then coach Grant Talbott used a spread offense to secure the win. McLean County gave the defending district champions all they wanted be- fore falling at the end 45-43 in the title game. A quick defense and Jeanette Rowan's 14 rebounds were instrumental in the win. Four OHS starters made the All-Dis- trict team - Rowan, Owsley, Harris and Bea Brown. In regular season action, the Red Dev- ils finished with a sparkling 21-1 record, losing only to Madisonville 61-51. The Devils beat all of their last 15 opponents, including Madisonville.

Apollo won all four of the encounters, but the last meeting was A Close Encounter of the Fourth Kind. The most important game of the year for both OHS and Apollo was set for March 3 in the semi-finals of the Ninth District Regional Tournament. Owensboro High came out ready and led 12-6 after one period. The shoot-and- stall play was working well against Apollo. Owensboro dragged its halftime lead to 18-13. The biggest lead of the game for OHS was 20-13 with an early second half bas- ket, but Apollo again doomed OHS in the third period. Apollo outscored OHS 16-8 in the third period to grab a 29-26 lead. The Red Devils had a two point lead and the basketball with less than two minutes left in the final quarter. A dou- ble dribble and a bad pass enabled Apol- lo to tie the game at 35-35, with 11 sec- onds left in the game. Jeff Jones of Apol- lo lost the ball and Mark Rickard let a desperation shot fly at the buzzer that bounced off the board. Apollo got the best of the overtime period as the Eagles hit six points while OHS scored only four. Danny Griffith laid in the final basket of the year for OHS with one second remaining, but Apollo had their fourth straight win over the Devils, 41-39 in overtime. Clarence James and Keith Anderson tallied 16 and 14 points respectively for the game and were named on the All- Tournament team in the 9th District. OHS and Apollo had their first head- to-head meeting on Dec. 13. Apollo held off a late charging OHS to win 61-57. The second duel between the Eagles and the Red Devils took place on Dec. 30 in the final game of the Owensboro Invi- tational Tournament at the Sportscenter.

The list of Sophomores playing on the varsity and others practicing with the team included Tony James, Chucky Riley, Danny Griffith, Ter- rence Thompson, Rod Drake, Sammy James, Joe Acquisto and Dwight Higgs. This factor, plus snow and cancella- tions, caused Coach Tom Turner to label the year as unusual, Only nine of the 18 games scheduled were played, with no ball games being played for six weeks. The hectic schedule also caused only seven play- ers to be at practice before the last two games. Turner commented, I was satisfied with the team, when I take into con- sideration all that happened. Overall this was as strong a group of sopho- mores as we've had in a long time. The season got off to a sluggish start and hit its peak at midseason. The Sophomore squad finished with a 5-4 record for the year. Inexperienced players caused the loss to McLean County 145-441, in the season opener.

As Coach Don Schmied put it, During scrimmages against the var- sity we became Meade County, Catho- lic, Henderson County, Apollo, etc. and every other team our varsity played. We prepared our varsity for the challenges they encountered each Friday night. They were the epitome of Iayvee football players because they were willing to do anything that was asked of them to make the varsity a better team, said Schmied when explaining this year's team and their job. Their job wasn't an easy task as eight sophomore played varsity ball. The team was required to know 30 defenses as well as over 200 offensive plays. The coaches were given very little opportunity to work with funda- mentals and develop the players.

Ti W KX. SER Winning is the name of the game. At least, that is the game that Keith Augenstein has been coaching for the past 18 years. The 1978 season marked the end of an 18 year reign as a tennis coach at OHS as Augenstein retired from the game - a winner. What's in a name? For Coach Augenstein and the tennis team it means a long string of victories and almost complete dominance over the region. The boys' tennis team boasts an 83 percent winning per- centage with seven undefeated seasons. There have been 12 regional singles champions among the boys and also 12 runners-up. The doubles championships have been won 10 times by OHS with four runners-up. Highlights include a 45-game winning streak that just ended with a loss during the past season. Earlier in his career, Augenstein posted a 41-game winning streak. One player, David Schell, reached the semi-final of the State Tournament in 1973. The girls' team edged the boys slightly in winning with an 87 percent winning mark. Accomplishments for the girls include six regional singles championships and six runners- up. There have been five regional doubles championships with one regional doubles runner-up. The girls presently boast a string that includes four unde- feated seasons. In the past, Martha Bastin was runner-up in the state tournament, while doubles partners Martha and Nell Moore reached the semi-final of the tournament an- other year. What is the secret to Augentstein's successful game? In his career, Coach Augenstein has found that two im- portant factors have most helped him create winners. One factor, claimed Augenstein, is general athletic ability. If a kid has that you can teach them to do anything. Augenstein continued by saying that attitude is the most important factor. The kids know they are expected to win, and it makes a difference. Coaching is more than winning, though. He has a goal - to develop as good a team as I can. Winning isn't every- thing. I go by the book morally, etc . . . My players develop into young men and young women. No one in the past has disappointed me. , That past began when Keith Augenstein came to OHS as a teacher and was offered the job as a tennis coach. He had played tennis in college and had also coached baseball and basketball. At the time, tennis wasn't too accepted in high school. For many years there wasn't a girls team because not enough girls were interested enough to form one. Now tennis, ac- 10 XA Tribute To Keith Augenstein cording to Augenstein, is much more interesting and'pop- ular. I watched the region grow from six teams to 24 teams. This year I had to limit the tennis team to 20 members because of court space. For some coaches their philosophy would be it is not whether you win or lose - it's how you play the game. For Keith Augenstein, his philosophy can best be expressed in a comment from one of the mothers of the players: He is a winner and he makes winners out of all of his players. - By Cindy Richards 'The Winner' Boys Girls Won Lost Won Lost 1961 - 10 1 1961 -- 1 O 1962 - 11 0 1962 - 1 O 1963 - 12 0 1963 - O 1 1964 - 12 O 1964 - 0 0 1965 - 5 7 1965 - 1 0 1966 - 8 6 1966 - O 0 1967 - 8 5 1967 - 0 O 1968 - 12 2 1968 - 0 0 1969 - 8 6 1969 - O 0 1979 - 11 O 1970 - 0 O 1971 - 17 3 1971 - O 0 1972 - 13 3 1972 - 2 2 1973 - 12 O 1973 - 0 3 1974 - 10 4 1974 - 4 2 1975 - 13 2 1975 - 10 O 1976 - 13 0 1976 - 12 0 1977 - 15 0 1977 - 10 0 1978 - 13 2 1978 - 12 O Totals 203 41 Totals 53 8 S gr Vs N R S r mm 5 u- A ,W ,N . af r- S-it X 1 sr .sa .t we i t X 5 ra ,v .- it - . lf- W tT'E'a'fT f . ..

We had some misfortune as our relay teams dropped the baton a few times, we hadn't done that all year, and I feel our relay team had a good chance at state, but we just came up with some bad luck, said jury. Sophomore Diane Depp, a standout all year, won the high jump in the regional. Wendy Morton came through in the 440 and the 440 relay team, composed of Melanie Hum- phrey, Nadine Riley, Linda Winstead and Barbara Hinton, and also won a first place finish in the regional. The state tournament was held at the University of Kentucky and Diane Depp finished second in the high jump with a height of 5'4 for the only points for OHS. In the regular season, the girls opened up with Madisonville and came away with a 72-42 victory as Diane Depp won both the long and high jumps. Stacy Humphrey fin- ished first in both the 110 and 60 hur- dles, and Karen Daniel the 880 and the mile. OHS beat arch-rival Apollo 72-46 as a tune-up for the City-County meet. In the City-County meet, the girls edged Daviess County 58-57 and Apollo was third at 42 points. The Big 8 was held at Henderson County and the girls finished fourth.

Coach - Bill jury Girls' Track! lnjur, P When talking about the 1977 girls cross country team one thing comes to mind - injuries This was a year of injuries, said fourth year coach Bill' Jury, as he dis- cussed the cross country season. For example: Sophomore Cindy Richards, expected to be one of the top runners this year, had anemia throughout the season, Lisa Dewitt, an eighth grader had 40 stitches in her leg, and senior Charise Lord seperated her shoulder. This, plus a rash of sprained ankles, hampered the suc- cess of the girls. At the regional, the girls were beat- en by Apollo and eventual state champ Daviess County. Even though the team didn't make it to state, five girls qualified: Karen Daniels, Lisa Bittel, Julie Smith, Na- dine Riley and Sara Wade. Daniels placed seventh at state. She placed fifth in the Big 8 and fourth in the Christian County meet and was the outstanding runner on the team. - By Nicky Nicholas Sprained Ankles, Other Injuries ' Hamper Girls Louisville Invitational - Eighth Place Daviess County Duel Meet - Last Apollo Duel Meet - Last Covington Catholic - Eighth Place Owensboro Invitational - Eighth Place David Lipscomb Invitational - Fourth Place Old Hickory - Sixth Place Big 8 - Last ' Christian County - Seventh Place Regional - Last Coach - Bill Jury l'0ll OHS runners Julie Smith, Karen Dan- iels, Lisa Bittel,.

IIIllI'I'I'l Ii IIS FIIII Il OHS Boys' Cross Country team consisted of several newcomers and were not really expected to have an outstanding season. But everyone, including Coach Mickey Mundy, was surprised when Buddy Vanover and Marvin Jump led the team to an outstanding first place finish in the regional meet held at Hillcrest Golf Course. We had a very young team, commented Coach Mundy, but we also had some good runners, although we were not expected to win the regional. It was the first year in OHS history that the boys cross country team had had two pairs of brothers. The Laws - Bruce and Byron - and the Vanovers - Buddy and Larry - were among the ten members of the team. Byron was a junior and Bruce was a sophomore. Another unusual feature of the team was that Larry Vanover, brother of senior Buddy Vanover, was an eighth grade' student at Estes and Coach Mundy tagged Larry as the most impressive eighth grade runner in the state. After the regional meet, Coach Mundy was hoping the team would run as well in the state meet as they did in the regional, but they did not quite reach the top as they finished in the fifth position. Marvin Jump led the team in the state meet and placed tenth overall. - By Scot Gaither This was the first year in OHS history that the boys cross country team had two pairs of brothers.

The Devils were fourth in the state. We were just one point from being in third place and 17 points from second, stated Swim Coach Joe Iracane. The Red Devils were also the highest non-Louisville team at State, finishing behind champion St. Xaiver, Trinity and Ballard. The snow hampered much of Owensboro's season as the only other meets the team competed in were the Western Kentucky meet and the City-County meet. In the Western Kentucky meet, OHS finished a strong third behind Christian County and host Bowl- ing Green. In the City meet, OHS displayed their strength as they beat rivals Apollo and Daviess County. OHS had a total of 245 points while Apollo was a close second with 225 points and Daviess County, a poor third with a total of 24 points. Iracane couldn't single out one most valuable player. He included his top six as most valuable. Seniors Bleckley Dobbs, Brian Bastin, Bob Baker and Juniors David Dobbs, Jim Wofford and Tom Mullikin made up that list.

That question was asked to a cross- section of people who have long fol- lowed OHS sports. They responded with a variety of names. 0 Fred Reeves, 9-10 Center princi- pal, believes that Harold Pugh was the greatest. He was so excellent in ev- erything he played. He could take a game like bowling or tennis that he never before played and in minutes be quite proficient at it. He had all the instincts, he was quick with good co- ordination. 0 Herb Parker, former Messenger- Inquirer Sports Editor, believes that Cliff Hagan is the sports standout in OHS history. He achieved more than any other athlete in OHS history. He scored 42 points in a State Tournament, from there he went to the St. Louis Hawks and made all-pro. 0 Joe Brown, former OHS principal and coach, believes there are several standouts. There are about six athletes that I think are really great: Harold Pugh, Charlie Sturgeon, Mark Rickard, Bob Watson, Bob Cravens and Ted Smith. They could play everything, they had the ability to play every sport. 0 Lawrence McGinnis, former OHS athletic director and coach, named five athletes that he believes are the great- est: Cliff Hagan, Jack Jean, Lee Tru- man, Bobby Watson and Charlie Stur- geon. They had good records in high school and were successful after high school also, said McGinnis. 0 Bill VanWinkle, 11-12 Center principal, commented: There are so many great athletes through the years at OHS, that I'd hate to single any one individual out. Some of the greats have been in football, Bob Cravens, Dickie Moore, Lee Truman and Isaac Brown. In basketball, the standouts were Cliff Hagan, Kenny Higgs, Charlie Taylor, Jerry Thruston and Bobby Watson. Standouts in baseball were Richard Anderson, Mark Rick- ard, Bobby Woodward and Dave Wat- kins. Track and golf standouts were Frankie Ballard, Daryl Remole, Jeff Miller, Bernie McGill, Jim Vincent 114f The Greatest? Jimi Cliff Hagan led Owensboro High School to the State Basketball Championship in 1949 and went on to star for the University of Kentucky and the St. Louis Hawks in the pro ranks. He is now athletic director at the University of Ken- tucky. . l . f 5 s ri, -.flag ' Harold Pugh is regarded by many as the best athlete in OHS history because of his all- around ability in baseball, basketball and foot- ball. and Bernie Strawn. 0 Bob Laswell, chairman of the Owensboro Board of Education, feels that Cliff Hagan is the greatest athlete that OHS has ever seen. Hagan's record was more out- standing than any other athlete. He went further than anyone else after high school. His achievements have outstripped any of the other athletes. 'Athletic Director Jack Hicks nar- rowed his choice to four athletes: Har- old Pugh, Bobby Woodward, Bernie Strawn and Mark Rickard. They were all-around athletes, they started in all the sports they par- ticipated in. They were also a part of winning teams and that's important. 0 Gerald Wellman, 9-10 assistant principal, named Harold Pugh as the greatest. He could do all the sports and do them well. If he had just specialized in one sport like some of the other ath- letes, there was no telling how good he could have been. He was the great- est all-around athlete. 0 James H. Johnson, assistant su- perintendent of Business of the Owensboro Public Schools and a for- mer OHS coach, believes that there were too many great athletes to nar- row it down to one. We had so many great athletes throughout OHS history . . . so many of them continued with their sports success after high school. Some of the great athletes through the years at OHS were: Hump Tanner, Tom Bartlett, Henry Wilson, I.M. C1ipe, Henry Snoddie, Lee Truman, Tom Fil- lian, Charlie Sturgeon, Isaac Brown, Richard Anderson, Lawrence Smith, Dickie Moore and Bob Cravens. 0 In women's athletics, Jo Fowler, 11-12 Center physical education teacher, believes that Pat Ward was the best. She came in when women were just being able to play. She was fan- tastic in track and softball and had we had a basketball team, she would have been great in that, too. She was a dedi- cated athlete and the greatest woman athlete OHS ever had. - By Marsha Tanner THE LETTERME :1 1 Plaques in '77-78 VARSITY FOOTBALL - Ted Belcher, Phil Hyland, Kerry Nelson, Sonny Jackson, Bob Ba- ker, John Anderson, Chris Finnell, Mark Rick- ard, Odis Wilson, Gerald McKenzie, Robbie Holder, Byron Midkiff, Duane Kirkendoll, Scott Stafford, Rayvon Reynolds, Bobby Meeker, Bryant Scott, Tim Ecton, Jerry Prather, Robin Owens, Donnie Howell, Robbie Puckett, Talmage Hocker, Tony James, Jeff Ruth, Thomas Johnson, Terrence Thompson, James McFarland, Sammy James, Tom Aaron, Dwayne Harris, David Posey, Sam Dixon, Chuck Riley, Rick Neel, Mark Hazelrigg, Todd Lighten and QHonorary Lettermanj John Blewer.

The Lettermen! 5 SUWSKEFQCEN RWD Wi 'Swift Cast Members Played Major Roles In 'Out-of-school' Sports While many OHS students participated in organized school sports during 1977-78, an even larger number of students played their favorite sports activities on play- grounds or backyards away from the school grounds. Some students participated in organized sports activities away from school, but the largest number of students took part in some type of sports activity for personal fun and exercise. For still another group of students, sports meant watch- ing or listening to their favorite team on radio or television. While pro football ranked high on the most watched list of OHS students, the event that probably captured the most looks was the University of Kentucky basketball team enroute to the NCAA championship. The most popular participant sports among OHS stu- dents for 1977-78 were football, basketball, baseball and tennis. Bowling was also a popular sport among many OHS students as they participated in leagues at the two bowling facilities all-year around. Many OHS students enjoy sports such as boating, camp- ing, hiking, fishing, hunting, sailing and roller skating. The weather had a lot to do with sports in the 1977-78 school year. During the winter, students had to move in- doors to play basketball, racquetball, bowling and various pinball activities. . The warmer temperatures brought out the softballs, ten- nis balls, jogging uniforms and the golf clubs. Motocross is a growing sport and many OHS students participate in motocross races throughout the south. Horseback riding is big in Kentucky and some OHS students have their own horses and enjoy a nice ride for fun and excitement. Others have horses that they enter in com- petiton. Racquetball is a growing sport and was a real favorite at the YMCA from December through February. Swimming is a favorite activity in the spring when the warmer temperatures hit and the sun is hot. Swimming was enjoyed at the Chautauqua Park, the Sportscenter, area club pools, backyard pools, Trail-Away and Miller Lakes. Swim- ming is a fun activity that usually relates to the desire to get a good sun tan, but is also a competitive sport at many clubs in Owensboro. OHS students also found out that you can get a lot of exercise and enjoyment by jogging or bicycle riding.

TOM BROWN - fSeniors Senior ancy Jenkins Flips Over Her Job Gymnastics is her hobby, gymnastics is her job. That's the story on gymnast Nancy Jenkins, a 1978 graduate. She has taught tumbling and bars in various places for eight years. The Owensboro- Daviess County Family Y, The Gymnast, joy Iohnson's Dance Stu- dio and Maryville, Tenn., are the places she has been employed. Nancy is a born acrobat. She has never had a lesson in her life but does daring stunts without any difficulty. On the un- even parallel bars she first makes a sole circle with a half twist and hits the low bar, she then straddles over it and does a backflip off the high bar. Nancy per- forms more difficult stunts than any of the students she has taught. A round-off back flip is one of her tricks and might help her at tryouts for Western's gymnastic team. She hasn't decided if she wants to continue her ca- reer in college. Nancy and her students practice all year for their last recital. They per- formed on stage in the Daviess County auditorium in late June. - By Kathy Kunau TRACY L. BROWN - Student Council 2, 3. DEBRA BRUNER - NHS 4. KATHY D. BRYANT - DECA 1, 2, 3. ROBERT S.

Seniorsf125 Perfecting The Game Of Strikes And Spares Football, basketball and baseball standouts are always well-known on the high school scene, but OHS has four senior standouts from the sport of bowling - Steve McIntyre, David Faith, Bo Oliver and Danny Wigginton. Steve and David combined to win the 1977 Ken- tucky State Doubles Championship. They com- bined for a 1,218 handicap score. You have to have an inner confidence in your- self and a deep concentration completely on the game, said Steve. He has been bowling since he was four. Steve claims a high game of 253 and a high series of 594. David carries a 158 average and has been bowling two years in competition. Along with the State Doubles championship, he came in second place in the singles competition of the1AJBC league. David holds a high game of 244 and a high series of 594. Oliver has won three state titles and five city titles. He has won 20 tournaments with 45-50 tro- phies to his name. Bo has been bowling since he was four. My dad got me interested in bowling. He used to work in a bowling alley and he used to take me with him. Bo averages 195 with a high game of 265 and a high series of 688. Wiggington has been bowling the shortest time of the group. He has only been bowling four years, two of them in competition. Danny has won two state titles and three city titles. Danny bowls about 35 games a week. He averages 197, claiming a high game of 288 and a high series of 703. - By Marsha Tanner BLECKLEY DOBBS - NHS 3, vice- president 4, JCL 2, 3, 4, Swimming 2, 3, 4, National Merit semi- finalist.

This is one of the common ques- tions that students ask the college re- presentatives that come to Owensboro High School. Every year atvariety of college re- presentatives come to the OHS 11-12 Center to give the students up-to-date information on such things as finan- cial aid, classes, scholarships and to answer any questions that they may have about the college. Some of the colleges that annually visit OHS are Owensboro Business College, Kentucky Wesleyan, Univer- sity of Kentucky, Eastern Kentucky University, Murray State College, Brescia College and Western Ken- tucky University. According to Tom Ash, senior counselor, the main value that stu- dents get from talking to a variety of college representatives is getting the information which will allow them to compare the various colleges and for the students to get an idea of which college is made for them. While the graduating seniors are the focal point of most college recruit- ers, they also talk to many juniors in an effort to get them to think about the college of their choice. - By Pam Abrams ALISA PIERCE - MARK E, PIERCE - RAY S.

PAM RUSSELBURC - Seniors! DONNA G. RUSSELL - Spanish Hon- I O I Come Along With The prospect of going to summer school isn't always a thrilling one. But when Joanie O'Bryan and Wendy Winston found out that most of their summer was to be taken up with French lessons, they were delighted. Why the joy? Ioanie and Wendy studied the language in the native country of France. The two seniors were part of a University of Louisville tour group that consisted of 60 French, Spanish and German stu- dents. The students all spent their time abroad in further study of their respective languages. Ioanie and Wendy did their studying at the University of Boutennett in Montpeiler. They lived in the dormitories, at- tended classes daily and even faced the daily chore of home- work. At first the school was really difficult. We weren't used to being taught in straight French all the time, but then we got used to it, said Wendy. While the students were in Montpeiler, they were adopted by the mayor of Montpeiler. These families would take us out and show us a good time, they were really nice, said Wendy. France wasn't the only country that the two got to visit. The tour group provided the girls with the chance to visit London, Belguim and Amsterdam. Paris was another big stop on the tour. It was so fantastic, said Joanie, speaking of Paris, Every- thing I had seen in my French book was standing right in front of me. Europe presented them with culture shock as they experi- mented with new foods and got a look at the everyday life of Europeans. The food was okay most of the time but they drown every- thing in olive oil, reflected Wendy. And they just guzzle wine down with every meal . . . But it's always real dry wine. or Society 4, Spanish Club 2, 3, vice president 4, Band 1, 2, 3, 4, All-District Band 2.

She never got a chance to meet the famed singer before Presley died on Aug. 16, 1977. l've idolized Elvis as long as I can remember. l-Ie's always been a part of my life, said Janet. I-ler idolization of Elvis is obvious in her room. Her walls are covered with 50 pictures of him. She collects his tapes and has a stack of magazines about him. Janet claims to have seen all of his movies three times. Her favorites are Viva Las Vegas, Blue Hawaii, and When he died l cried for three weeks. Everytime l heard one of his songs or saw a picture of him l would start to cry. M I felt like I lost a special friend, said Janet. Even though he's dead, he'll always live on to me. His music will live on for generations, concluded Janet. - By Marsha Tanner A iiifi isf in X Y K fig? 1 Y fam, E J Charlotte Blan A J J ' A Bud Blanford , ' -. P ,..f 1 . 'Q Q 'L 2 it rf' 1 .. . .,..

Juniors Move Prom To The 'Big E' Junior class officers had a new dimension added to the planning of the prom. The location was changed. In past years the prom has been held in the Sports center, but this year the prom was held in the new Executive Inn Rivermont. The change in location gave an extra challenge to the planning and deco- rating of the annual social event. Ray Reynolds fleftj headed the junior class and Bea Brown served as vice-president. Ann Porter held the job of historian, Kelly Satter- white was secretary and Linda Star- ling, the treasurer. - By Marsha Tanner A x g it A at if he Scott Christian 1 A , at-,f f , - S 1 Q Q Tammy Church V Y , 3 J 5-J A 'N J 'f f-- '12 - 1 f K T , .

Pam reigned as Queen of the Senior Babe Ruth World Series held in Owensboro Aug. 19-26. She was Prin- cess to the team from San Gabriel, Calif., which won the series, making her Queen. Seven other OHS girls served as Princesses and Sweethearts: Benita Black, Robin Fisher, Allison Horrell, Jackie Mayfield, Leigh Ann Rhoades, Marsha Tanner and Desla Turner. The duties of the Princesses and Sweethearts ranged from tour guides to frantic fans. As soon as their team arrived the girls became a part of the team, at- tending every function with them. The girls sat with the team during the games and cheered them on during the series. Another duty of the girls was to give them an educational in- sight into Kentucky. -- By Marsha Tanner 3 Laura Hanberry 5 R at . . .. M QQ , Q . Tim Hardin 1 .

K t J Second Runner A trip to the Kentucky Miss Black Expo pageant proved to be more than Linda Winstead expected. The junior came back from Louis- ville as the second runner-up in the pageant and the owner of the third place award in talent. But along with the awards and prizes came another benefit of being a beauty contestant. While competing for the state title she met world heavyweight champion Muhammed Ali. It was all really great, said Linda. They had a lot for us to do and we had a good time. The 30 girls that competed in the pageant met Ali at a dinner held in ' A ' 1. ti 'Q 5 i 'ei 'S Vx VQQ?

L . 4 junior Lori Jordan Is Cousin Of The New 'King' In the fall of 1977 an event occurred which shocked the whole world and sent rock-and-roll fans, young and old, into mourning. In honor of his idol, an unknown song writer strummed out his tribute to The King, Elvis Presley. This one song made Ronnie McDowell a star, and made a certain junior at OHS very proud. Junior Lori Jordan is a cousin of McDowell. Since Ronnie's hit record The King is Gone, made it big in the top 40, Lori has been bombarded with questions from hungry fans concerning the star. Have you ever kissed him? . . . Does he have a girlfriend? Can you get me an autograph? These are the questions most asked the 16-year old. Lori's monotonous reply is always the same, Yes, l've kissed him. No he doesn't have a girlfriend, but he does have a wife and two little girls! On Oct. 22, at the Owensboro Sportscenter, before a crowd estimated at 3,000 fans, McDowell performed his tribute amid the tears and cheers of Elvis fans of all ages. Somewhere in the audience, stood a very proud teenage girl holding a neat and carefully folded paper towel with the words, cuz, Ronnie, written on it.

Their father, Henry Thompson, is their geometry teacher. lt's pretty nice to have your father as a teacher, said Bon- nie. i'Even though it means that your parents always know ' your grades. To Mr, Thompson, having his twin daughters in class isn't that much of a novelty. Two of his sons have also had classes under him. A I've taught my children all my life. Having Bonnie and Connie in my class doesn't bother me a bit. He's not hard on me and he doesn't pick on me just because I'm his daughter, said Bonnie. He treats everybody the same. But sometimes, when students find that Bonnie is Mr. Thompson's daughter, problems can arise. Some students think that he shows favorites, but he doesn't, insisted Bonnie. If they need my help on homework, all they have to do is ask, said Mr. Thompson.

Ever since I was a little girl, I wanted to play the harp, explained Cindy, but no one ever took me seriously. Then I found out that there was a harp teacher in Henderson. I set up lessons and then got a harp. It took the place I ordered it from six months to get the harp to me, but there was one firm that said it would have taken two- and-one-half-years to get one to me. That's how hard they are to get, Cindy went on to say. Despite the illusion some people have heard of harp players, Cindy says they can- not be weaklings. Harp players also can't be dainty things some people think they are. Lots of people think of harp players hav- ing long slender fingers and delicate hands, but your fingernails have to be kept cut short and calluses will develop on your fingers. You have to have strong arm muscles to play well. When you're playing the harp you have to support a lot of weight. I have to do hand exercises with a rubber ball to strength- en the muscles. Cindy's harp, which is 6'1 tall and weighs about 100 pounds is 11 inches taller than her and outweighs her by five pounds. - By Sondra Loyd p Mike Bennett Lee Berry Leisa Best David Bissmeyer Dwi ht Blanford nnis Charlene Blay Valarie Blevins Susan Blewer ,Bernard Boling 'K S hris Boone Roger Bostick Kandi Bowman Tammy Bradley Sheila Brigance David Bristow Tammy Brooks Anna Brown Cathy Brown Connie Brown David Brown jennifer Brown Joe Brown TBFBFGM Keith Brown it -..'

Kathy works as an assistant in a dentist's office. Her job consists of working at the front desk and aiding the dentist. Learning this job took Kathy time and a lot of practice, but she claims to have become an efficient little nurse. First she prepares any supplies and equipment needed. Then she oper- ates the aspirator, a vacuum-like instrument, while the dentist is working on a patient. Kathy plans to enter into the field of dentistry as a dental assistant and this job is giving her good experience. She likes the job and thinks it's fun because it gi-ves her a chance to work with people. So, while other people get nervous about going to the den- tist, Kathy gets paid. - By Cindy Richards E at f ti 3, . W! , f , Open wide and say 'Ahhh , . .

The annual 9-10 Center A. Powder Puff game proved to carry on the tradition of Sophomore victories as the class of '80 pow- dered the Freshmen, 6-0. Even the rain that drenched Powder Puff players couldn't dampen the powder of the victorious Sopho- mores. Holding the Freshmen scoreless throughout the 32 minute game, the Sophomores made their only score of the game in the first half for a 6-0 victory. 1 Sophomore Quarterback Melanie Humphrey made the touchdown with a ten-yard run. Eniertaining the crowd with their comical gestures were cheerleaders Jeff Millay and David Noble. Al- though an egg bombing was expect- ed, 9-10 principal Fred Reeves put a halt to that and was booed for his efforts. One player, freshman Terri Hayes, suffered a broken arm in the game. No Powder Puff game was played at the 11-12 Center, although the idea was tossed around in fall conversa- tion.

My ll riff pg 3 rams , L XA Ginny Stiles and Susan Blewer take a trip down memory lane as they rum- mage through souvenirs from their trip to New York. A These Barefoot Hillbillies re Glad To Be Home Ginny Stiles and Susan Blewer traveled to New York City in early January as part of a Wesleyan College class and came back star struck. While on a tour of Whitney Museum of American Art they ran into comic Steve Martin and got his autograph. Ginny recalled the events that led up to the autograph. We were standing around and Mrs. Ann Hartley came up and asked us if we'd seen him fSteve Martinj. So we started going over the museum trying to find him and when we saw him we went up and asked him for his autograph. We never had seen a star. They told us we might see celebrities in New York and we did! said Susan. Ginny and Susan were kept busy while in New York They visited museums, the Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty. The Wiz, The King and I and A Chorus Line were the three Broadway musicals they enjoyed. After seeing The Wiz they walked to a nearby restau- rant for dessert. A bowl of ice cream cost 54.50 because of a cover charge for not ordering a full meal. Also visited was a store of wallpaper and fabrics. It was really neat because they had wallpaper that cost S500 a yard, said Ginny. There was this one piece of fabric with real gold spun in it. Ginny also talked about the people of New York. We'd say two words and people would ask us where we were from. People actually thought we went barefoot be- cause we lived in Kentucky. Ginny and Susan both agreed that they had fun, but Susan summed it up in an old cliche. It's a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live 0 .3 Q 5 W L 3 .1 - :Sz-'14 k i Diane King Helen King Lisa King Mary King Becky Kirby Lisa Kirby Robin Kish there! - By Karla Weller ..

WH, McCrady and the Evolutionsn is the name of the musical group that involves four members of her family and a close friend. About six years ago, when her parents were in a group, she would get on the drum and start playing. That is how she got start- ed. She has been playing for half-a-year. Kim feels that by playing in the school band and a musical group at the same time she has learned a lot that betters her in both Tammy Price 'Ti g ' ig i Connie Pruden , 'B Melissa Pyle . Dorthy Quigg ly John Quiggins fr ,, Y , .Iii activities. lt's much different playing in front of a crowd of 50-76 than playing while marching. It makes you feel like everyone is watching everything you do. The Evolutions play a variety of places in town in Owensboro and the surrounding area. Kim definitely plans to arrange her future around music. She thinks that someday she would like to be a drummer in a big group or even start her own group. - By Carol Nicholson 1 few sm. wsrxff.

Joe was runner-up in his age divi- sion in the National Basketball Asso- ciation's Midwest Division. He repre- sented the Indiana Pacers in the com- petition held Jan. 7-8 in Indianapolis. On Dec. 21, Joe and his brother John competed during the halftime of the Pacers-Atlanta Hawks game. Both won their age division and the honor of representing the Pacers in higher competition. The Hot-Shot shoot-off works like this. Each player gets 60 seconds to shoot the ball from five designated spots oh the floor. Points are awarded for each basket. Each player has three one-minute rounds and is awarded a total score for his work. The player with the highest score wins. Joe plays on the OHS sophomore team and hopes to continue his career of basketball at Owensboro High School. Joe wasn't the only Owensboro re- presentative in the Hot-Shot tourna- ment. Mary King, a sophomore at OHS, competed with joe in December in the girl's competition. Mary placed second in her age division, eleminat- ing her from advanced competition. - By Marsha Tanner Sophomoresf 9 BCI-!5LELlDl,Q Shelley Slaton Leisha Smith Randy Smith ggtt Smith Jackie E Mary Beth Sorrells id Spurrier Jef ta ings Rho Tim St. Clair Mary Stiff Ginny Stiles Danny Stinnett Ricky Stinnett Danny Sto ner Lil y Stogner Allyson Straney Stephanie Strehl Ikygflmger Paige Strin er u re urgeon Sydell Sturgeon Bill Sullivan Glenn wi r oe Tate Kent Taul Todd Taylor Da Sarah Thompson Thompson Karla ruston Lisa Tignor Beth Timbroolf Theresa Tinsley Lori Tipton Beth Tomes Gail Tomes Margaret Triplett Tracey Trodglen Scott Tucker Tina Vandiver Eric Vanover Loretta Vanover t Leslie Vaught Donna Vincent Sue Vowels -?..., 17OfSophomoresy , errr f , f .

Black Sabath is six feet long, three feet tall and weighs 135 pounds. He is also one of many Great Danes in the United States that are solid black, except for a white spot on the front paw. Sabath's ancestors can be traced back to 1900 and his record has been traced back for six generations. The giant dog towers above his owner and he eats about as much, as he consumes 20 pounds of food a week. - By David Noble Down, boy!

She has mastered the ice and skates in free style competition. Gliding over the ice and performing a few fancy figures hasn't been all smooth skating for Mischelle. She began at the age of 9 and now puts in 12 hours of practice a week. She has won two trophies in free style competition at the Owensboro Sportscenter. One trophy was won at the age of 10 in a preliminary contest and a second place trophy last year. She also performs in the shows given at the Sportscenter annually. Mischelle has been put to the test in her figure skating and ice dancing skills. She has advanced to a pre-silver merit in figure skating and a bronze in dance. The OHS freshman claims that ice skating is her favorite sport. I like the feeling of flying and the freedom you get on the ice.

Talmage Hooker, an OHS sopho- more, started skiing in the third grade and after eight years has acquired ad- vanced skills in the sport. He hits the slopes in Aspen twice a year, at Christmas and in March with his family. P l really like skiing. It's one of my favorite sports. It's exciting because there's always room for improvement. It's challenging. Ginny Stiles, another OHS sopho- more, hasn't broke a leg yet, but she broke into skiing at the age of eight. In her annual trips to Aspen in De- cember and February, she has man- aged to lift her way onto the diffi- cult slopes.

I J erial Gardens' Five OHS Freshmen, dressed in white, performed their duties as Junior Hostesses at Owensboro's annual Charity Ball in mid- February. The five Freshmen were Susan Kelley, Janet Crooks, Carla Schertzinger, Susan Newberry and Robin Fisher. Dana Lambert was the only OHS Sophomore to serve. Long formal dresses were required along with shoes and gloves, and they all had to be white. Among their duties were handing out programs and showing guests to their tables. Midway through the night, the girls were introduced and spot- lighted with their fathers. Then they danced the traditional waltz with Dad. The Charity Ball was held at the Executive Inn Rivermont and the theme was Imperial Gardens. 178fFreshmen - By Karla Weller .F K Y 5... f . ax X . Xxx , s tt , 'll ii. t Si! J KA-.

That's exactly what Freshman Mary Beth Tichenor is doing as she puts bandages on girl's basketballer june Harris. Mary Beth is the fourth and last of the managing Tichenors' at OHS, Tichenor The IV Keeps Managing 'In The Famil ' The 1977 yearbook headline read: Graduation marks end of Tichenor managers. That was before women's lib took over. Now another Tichenor is a part of the managing scene at Owensboro High School. Freshman Mary Beth Tichenor kept the tradition started by her brothers alive by being a manager for the OHS girls' basketball team this year. l didn't really get interested in managing until last year when I went with Eddie, explained Mary Beth. Now I'd rather be a manager than a basketball player. Her brother Eddie was manager last year and was the last male student in the Tichenor family. Mary Beth not only inherited a tradition but a few tips from her brother Eddie, who was elated that his sister got to manage. Eddie, along with brother Mike and Rusty, were all man- agers at OHS. Tichenor the fourth can truly be called the end of the line as she is the last child in the family. - By Cindy Richards Freshmen! 'Babies' Of The 'Bab Devils' Julie Ann Beckhart is the youngest student at Owensboro High School. She holds the honor of being the baby of the Baby Devils by a mar- gin of 60 minutes over Susan New- berry, another OHS freshman. Both girls were born on Dec. 31, 1963, but Julie was born an hour earli- er than Susan at 12:48 p.m. Julie and Susan both got a head start on school as they were four months from their sixth birthday at enrollment. Julie started early because she didn't want to get left behind by her friends, while Susan took a test that proved she was ready as ever to tackle school. Even though both girls will be the last to be able to get their driver's li- cense, they claim there is no great dis- advantage in being the youngest. Despite the fact they are the youn- gest freshmen at OHS, Julie and Su- san claim to have equal advantages and no communication gap with their elders, - By Cindy Richards X,- llm Pulliam , D ' ,,,,,,. , ,.,, , , ,. , - ' .,F'am 's TlNPurCe 1 M v ,TEV :VV V , c P P it .L .fm Ly Vi . ,.., . 1210169 Pyland ,, ' . - Elaine QM ' i in a - .

Troy has been getting his wheels a rol- lin' during the school year three miles every weekday to and from school, except in the snowy weather. Summer jobs have aided him in paying S95 for his wheels He continues to make im- provements but instead of investing in snowtires, he buys blades. These are attached to the board and used for skateboarding on ice. Troy would like to get a convoy of wheels going and would like to get a skate- boarding team started at OHS. Skateboarding is one of the fastest-grow- ing sports in the world with an estimated 20 million teenagers zipping around on their skate wheels. An effort is being made to get the sport recognized for Olympic competi- tion. - By Cindy Richards Freshman! 5 1 f 5 New Q3Xcxq'mc5 3 Sg mm fmmaim Qemwmw w f gall'- ' 'snar casn. .mu-'l'nrminn nn Weekdays? 5 nmnmmmmm mQ e 'Weade , ' teacher ' ' . xncxpal - , . . .

Maybe not. Many of the classmates of the present OHS administrators probably didn't think of Bill Van- Winkle, Fred Reeves, Gerald Wellman, Joe Penrod, Whaylon Coleman, or Don Netoskie as ever becoming school officials. However, all six of the OHS administrators were high school athletes and now they occupy a position behind a desk at the two OHS centers. 0 11-12 Center Assistant Principal Whaylon Cole- man was the standout athlete as he was an outstanding basketball player in both high school and college. Mr. Coleman was added to the University of Idaho Hall of Fame in 1975 for his outstanding college play. Mr. Coleman lettered in basketball for five years at Western High School and four years in college. 0 11-12 Center Principal Bill VanWinkle was elected to the second team of the Western Kentucky Confer- ence All-Star football team his senior year in high school. During high school, he also lettered in basket- ball and baseball two years and track one year. Mr. VanWinkle also played one year of football at George- town College. ' Don Netoskie, director of student relations at the 11-12 Center, was selected for the All-State football team his senior year in high school at Martinsburg, West Va. ln college, Mr. Netoskie lettered four years in football at the University of Kentucky and one year in track. 0 Fred Reeves, 9-10 Center principal, was the captain of the 1958 OHS football team. Mr. Reeves also partici- pated in the track program. He lettered in both pro- grams at OHS for three years. 0 Gerald Wellman, assistant principal at the 9-10 Center, was captain of his football and basketball teams in 1958 and lettered in four sports. In high school football, he was elected an All-Conference play- er and selected as a Courier-Journal Player of the Week. He played football for one year at Western. 0 Assistant principal Joe Penrod played on the 1949 State Championship basketball team his sophomore year at OHS. Mr. Penrod lettered three years in both baseball and basketball in high school. At Kentucky Wesleyan he lettered four years in baseball. - By Marsha Tanner is - .'.'.'.

The guidance program at OHS underwent a major change in 1977-78 by switching to a rotat- ing counselor system. In this system, a counselor is assigned the students on a par- ticular grade level. The counsel- or stays with that class until graduation and then they are reassigned to the new Freshmen class. Dr. Roy Woodward, coordina- tor of counseling, said, I think this rotating counselor program will serve the counseling service more effectively than the pro- gram in the past, because it en- ables the counselor to become more significantly involved with a greater number of students. The 1977-78 counselors were: Linda Henderson, freshmen, David Logsdon, sophomores, Jean Williams, juniors, Tom Ash, seniors. A new Career Day arrange- ment was instituted in 1977-78 that brought all the Juniors and Seniors from OHS and the other local schools in Owensboro and Daviess County together for a one-day session that started with a talk by former Olympic star Wilma Rudolph. After the talk, students ven- tured to career sessions which were offered in almost every type of job. - By Stacy Elliott Dr. James Hilliard has been superintendent of the Owensboro Public Schools since 1968. While many stu- dents don't know what he looks like, he is a frequent classroom and cafeteria visitor at both centers. The Unseen Hero The superintendent is just like Charlie on 'Charlie's Angels You hear about him, but nobody sees him. That was the comment of one OHS 9-10 Center student about Dr. James C. Hilliard, superintendent of the Owensboro Public Schools. Students heard Dr. Hilliard's name on a number of occasions in 1978 as his name was usually associated with the announcement that no classes will be held in the Owensboro Public Schools today during the snow and cold weather in the month of January. I get up at 4:30 in the morning to drive and 'walk around town to see the road conditions and then I make the decision. It's never right. If I say there will be no school, I get calls from mothers who have no babysitters. If I say there will be school, I receive complaints from students, said Dr. Hilliard. The city school superintendent said that while he's not recognized by many students, he pointed out that he is at the 9-10 Center nearly every morning. I ride my bicycle down here and run around the track nearly every morning, ex- plained Dr. Hilliard. - By Sondra Loyd -A f w - if k.., . .

Though it sounds a little strange, methods like these are popular at OHS. Social Studies range from American Government to Wild West history to Juveniles and Law. It is one of the most diverse departments in the school. One of its focal points this year was a one-of-a-kind field trip for a group of juniors and seniors, OHS had 47 students to board a jet plane at Evans- ville early one morning in November for a quick trip to Washington, D.C., and returned late that evening. The group combined the age-old tradition of field trips with the marvels of jet-age flight. The students got the chance to witness government in action, said Tom Kurz, 11-12 social studies teacher. They watched congressional proceedings from the floor of the Senate, something that not everyone gets a chance to do in their lifetime. While juniors and seniors saw government in ac- tion, sophomores and freshmen experienced law in action. The 9-10 Juveniles and Law classes engaged in mock court trials giving those students an idea of courtroom situations. The class elected the students to play the roles of the defendant, witnesses, judge, jury, etc., and they even selected the crime for which the defendent was to be prosecuted. The two attorneys then built the entire case and it eventually evolved into a true-to-life situa- tion. 11-12 Government classes reinstated an old tradition in their daily routines. Some of the students pressed for the Pledge of Allegiance to return to the classroom. A group of government classes then began reciting the oath at the beginning of the class. Social Studies provided a little of everything for OHS students. From basic to advanced, from World War II to Civil rights, the department provided an insight for those who believe that the past is only a backward look at the future. - By Judy Kirk Mar Ann Bolin Col.

Many OHS students broke the monotony of a regular school day by going to new surroundings at one of the two vocational schools. At the vocational school, students learned a skill that will help find a job or help them with their career choice. The new 3.1 million dollar Owensboro Vocational Technical School was finished in 1977-78. The Daviess County Vocational Technical School was also used by OHS students. Owensboro students had the broadest selection of vocational classes offered in the state. They were: carpentry, communi- cations, electronics, home enter- tainment electronics, heating and air conditioning, health careers, practical nursing, machine shop, masonry, nurse assistant, office machine repair, plumbing, sheet metal and welding. The Daviess County Vocational School offered business and office machines, drafting, cosmetology, childcare, food service, distributive education, welding, graphic arts, auto body repair, auto mechanics, diesel mechanics and small engine repair. Nursing and welding were the most popular courses at the voca- tional schools. The Health Career Program is the only one in the state that is offered to high school stu- dents. - By Stacy Elliott A W' 1 i'i' 3 ',.,. 2 T Z .ii K. -..s ' . A' s rr ' .

Many classes are included as English credits such as: Poetry, Research Tech- niques, Composition 1 and 2, Bible Lit- erature 1 and 2, American Novel, Mod- ern Poetry and Songs, Wide World of Sports 1 and 2, Creative Writing, Word Power, Short Stories and Plays, Mytho- logy, etc. A new class was added to the English Department this year called Practical English, which is designed to teach stu- dents how to apply English to everyday life. Some phases of it include vocabu- lary expansion, application forms, short compositions, business letters, short lit- erary selections, correct spelling, punc- tuation and grammar. Other classes which fall under the heading of English Department but are not actually counted as English credits include Drama, Speech and Mass Com- munications. Drama is the study of the basic ele- ments of theatre, play production, litera- ture and acting. Speech gives students the opportunity to develop correct voice usage, breath control and to practice public speaking. Mass Communications involves work on the student newspaper, study of pho- tography, advertising, radio and televi- sion programs and the production of the yearbook. OHS had two students to win the Na- tional Council of Teachers of English Achievement Award in Writing. Seniors Aimee Newberry and David Head were selected along with 12 other Kentucky students as Outstanding Eng- lish Students. Suzanne Willis is chairman of the English Department and Sandy Spice- land is in charge of English at the 9-10 Center. - By Kelly Keohane OHS's Ernest Hemingways, Aimee Newberry and David Head, were named as two of only 14 Kentucky high school students to win the NCTE Writing Contest.

Connie Durbin and Woodie Pierce were married in a mock wedding ceremony during their 11-12 Center Family Living class. The wedding details were all planned from a shower to a honeymoon spot and housing after the marriage. Home Ec teacher Sandy Cornett said, The students really took it seriously. They didn't fool around and make a big joke of it. Woodie, the groom, was so nervous that he couldn't get the ring on Connie's finger. The attendants for the wedding were Renee Haney, maid- of-honorg Dianne Harris, bridesmaid, Zanea Ashley, flower girl, Mike Knight, best many Rudy Johnson, groomsman and usherg and Larry Millay, ringbearer. 9-10 Center home ec classes had boys and girls cooking and sewing together. Home Ec teacher Virgie Hill said that the boys did as the girls. The 9-10 classes also had a highly suc- cessful cookbook sale. And, for the first time, the 9-10 home ec department had a student teacher, Polly McGraw. Child Development classes at the 11-12 Center practiced the La Maize method of childbirth. They also watched films on actual childbirths. - By Stacy Elliott l now pronounce you, man and wife . . .

Third, there is the student who just wants the dis- count on insurance. I have more problems with students who already have their license than with the students who just have their permit, commented Driver Education teacher Grant Talbott. Whatever the reason for taking the course, all stu- dents go through three distinct phases of driver educa- tiong classroom instruction, simulation and in-car in- struction. The classroom phase explains the procedures of driving. The simulation phase teaches the student per- ceptive driving. The in-car phase gives the student actual driving experience.

Where can you toss horseshoes, play badminton, throw a fishing line, swing a golf club or tennis racket and even square dance? These activities are offered in the 9-10 Physical Education program. The 11-12 Center PE program consists of more field trips for such sports as tennis, ice skating, roller skating, swimming or bowling. It is all part of a program that concen- trates on carry over sports. Io Fowler, 11-12 PE teacher, feels that by the time students are at the 11- 12 Center they are young adults and ready for more field trips. The 9-10 Center labels its pro- gram life time activities. It con- sists of a large variety of activities that students are able to do later on in life. The two year-old lifestyle program was started in an attempt to solve problems with people not dressing out. It has developed into, according to Don Schmeid, 9-10 gym teacher, One of the best Physical Educa- tion Departments in the state. Learning how to do the activities is stressed rather than actual com- petition. Schmeid feels the rewritten cur- riculum this year was helpful. The reason for this new system is the learning of lifetime sports is a better way, said Schmeid. The activities are beneficial throughout a lifetime because the body can adapt to these skills better than team sports. These skills are also good leisure time activities and much more interesting. - Cindy Richards Taking Careful aim, 9-10 Center PE STUCl9I1fS techniques as part of their lifestyle program, learn to apply their skills with good gun safety Square dancing is a popular lifestyle activity in 9- 10 Central physical education classes.

OHS offers courses in Latin, Spanish, French and German in which students learn the grammar and how to speak the language. They also study the history and culture of the people in that country. Some of the other techniques that are used in the foreign language departments are having guest speakers, using filmstrips and tapes, translating stories, playing games and using a textbook. The Spanish department had two exchange students from Columbia, South America. Maritza Freydell and Stella Lequerica stayed with OHS students during the 1977-78 school year. The main goal of the Foreign Language department is to enable students at OHS to communicate with persons from another country. - By Pam Abrams A broad horizon of classroom expressions are pictured in one of the 9-10 Center typing classes.

Secretarial Pool: CBVE In 1978 the business education department started a new program of studies in the co-op office practice class. It was called Secretary and was part of a State Department of Education vocational program of Competency Based Vocational Education QCBVEJ. Other vocational areas have CBVE programs. The secretary is divided into 62 modulars of study. A modular is a small number of tasks to be studied, practiced and learned. A check out activity is used to see if the student has accomplished the objective for the modular. If the student is competent, then the next modular is started. If not, then the student reviews the tasks and tries again. Equipment and materials were provided at no cost to the school system by the State Department of Education. This year, OHS received a filing cabinet, cassette recorderfplayer, a slideftape machine and reference materials. Beginning typing remained the most popular class among non- required courses.

Music-making Devils Pla Different Tune Owensboro High School's music department involved a large part of the extra-curricular activities that took place in the everyday lives of the cast of characters. OHS had three award-winning choirs in 1978. The 9-10 beginning choir and the 11-12 advanced choir, which contained 90 members each, joined with the Chamber Choir, which is made up of 26 auditioned chorus members, to form the OHS choral groups. Thomas Pope retained his role as choral director for the sixth year. OHS had 11 students who were se- lected for All-State Chorus. They were: Seniors Ernie Adams, George Case, David Head, Jeff Leach, Terry Prater, Jim Remole, Carol Smith, Con- nie Whitmer and Doug Young, jun- iors selected were: Laura Hanberry and Tina Miller. Seniors David Head, Doug Young and Junior Laura Hanberry received perfect audition scores to win the top place in their respective voice divi- sions. The highlight of the year was the annual tour to Atlanta, Ga., during April. Members of the chorus partici- pated in various fund-raising drives in order to pay for the trip. The OHS Band had a year of chang- ing directors. The August resignation of David Shaner started the problems. Interim band director J.B. Trout- man, a graduate of OHS, held the reigns until the new director, Jack Za- chery, could take over midway through the first grading period. Two students from the woodwind section of the band auditioned for and were selected for the All-State band.

Quad State members also had the same let down after rescheduling couldn't be arranged, again due to weather conditions. Douglas Kellner, Orchestra director and string program coordinator since 1971, submitted his resignation to the board in August, which left the school system without a string teacher. Harriet Heacock was named to the position and conducted the string en- semble. Two students were selected from the orchestra program to participate in the 1978 All-State Orchestra. : ' ' . ..,.

What group of students went to the state tour- nament in basketball and won the first round, then lost by two points in the second round? What group of students also helped out in the Head Start program at Goodloe Elementary school and raised enough money to take a class trip to Six Flags. Special Education students, who are often ste- reotyped since grade school days, are trying to break away from the long-held labels of the past. Students qualify for the special education pro- gram if they are not achieving at the same level as other students. Special Education classes concentrate on basic skills and work on job skills such as filling out applications, operating a cash register and other areas of learning related to the everyday func- tioning in life. An effort is being made to get students to take an outside class such as physical education, ROTC, choir, industrial arts, art or home eco- nomics. Mainstreaming, the practice of put- ting special students in the regular classes, is designed to help the students socialize and allows competition with other students. Special education students are breaking down barriers in other ways. They get a chance to help other people when they work with the Head Start program, explained 9-10 teacher Sally Ru- disill. Hiring themselves out for jobs enabled the class to earn enough money to take trips. The students also participated in an organized sports program.

Joe Medley Ar ROTC 'Don't Know Much bout Biolog ' Science classes at the 9-10 Center and 11-12 Center are distinctly differ- ent. Most 9-10 Center classes in science are nine-week mini courses while the 11-12 Center classes are usually year-long courses with more laborato- ry and research work. The mini classes at the 9-10 Cen- ter are designed to give students a va- riety of options in the science area. These courses consist of both biology and physical sciences. Rocketry is an example of a 9-10 center mini-course. Students in the class make rockets that shoot for the moon. Aviation science is along the same lines as rocketry, but instead of building rockets, students build mini airplanes. Earth sciences such as astronomy, geology, meteorology and fossils are among the courses offered. Physics was offered at the 9-10 Cen- ter for the first time in 1978. Dissecting, raising plants and studying the human body were all part of the biology classes. Genetics is another biology class that is offered at the 9-10 Center. Fruit fly breeding is one of the projects studied by the class. Evolution classes study Darwin's Theory and take a look at both the pros and cons of evolution. Science classes offer students the chance to study chemistry, physics and biology in an advanced class that goes into much more detail than a general science class. Chemistry is offered at the 11-12 Center. Classes spend time in the lab applying what they are learning out of the textbook. In 1978, the advanced chemistry spent more time in the lab than in the past. They performed approximately 25 labs, according to Beverly Chel- gren, chemistry instructor. The chemistry department also had a deluge shower installed in 1978. The shower was also to be used by other science classes in case of emergency. The shower was added to insure better safety in the labs. Problem solving and labs are the theme of physics and advanced phys- ics classes at the 11-12 Center. In the advanced biology classes at the 11-12 Center students do a lot of research work on their own labs, and there are no tests. One proiect of the class was to disect a mouse and then put it all back together. Science classes at both centers are not all textbook work. Every OHS sci- ence class emphasizes lab or some kind of extra project. - By Stacy Elliott and Karla Weller 'wwf' M ' . s ' ,xi 34. 1 198fSupporting Cast Sandra Meschko iH5 ,V V3.1 2 -lean Miller Latin WWW ,.,,, Biology teacher Gerald Poynter demonstrates a dis- secting technique to one of his 11-12 Center classes lntently watching the class demonstration is Dawr Marsh Kseatedj. la Q' 2 Af lj ., .wr James Mills RLarry Moore Science Driver Education Don't know much about Geome- WY, Don't know much Trignometry, Don't know much about Algebra, I don't know what a slide rule is for.

Even if you don't know much, you at least have a wide selection of classes to choose from, as 14 differ- ent math classes were offered at the 9-10 Center and eight were taught at the 11-12 Center. A new class introduced this year was Basic Geometry. It was designed for the non-science or non-math ma- jor who wanted to go to college. Another different type of class for many students was Consumer Math. Among the things taught in the class were how to plan a vacation, Christ- mas shopping, etc., and all the more practical uses for math. we Demonstrating what a student would do in an emergency situation is 11-12 Center chemistry teacher Beverly Chelgren.

The plastics came in various forms, such as liquids, powders, granules, beads, solids, pastes and molded with either heat or chemicals. Various class projects were making balls, wheels, coin purses, funnels, lighters, embedded paper-weights, boomerangs, bowls and letter open- ers. Students in Mr. William Roach's 9- 10 Center metal work classes made an assortment of items. Some made nap- kin holders, tool boxes, planters, tongs, door knockers, foot scrapers, lathes, center punches or even minia- ture cannons. Second year students made objects such as lawn chairs and a drill press vice. A new look in a 9-10 Center hall was the display case constructed by woodwork teacher Kim Reed. The case displayed wood sculptured can- dle stands and graphic designs. - By Suzie Bartlett At the beginning of the 11-12 aviation classes en- deavor to build a flying machine, the project was just a frame with a few boards attached.

They give stu- dents the chance to learn the business of horticulture. Students stay active all year in the horticulture classes at OHS. During the fall and spring the stu- dents take care of the yards around the school. In the winter they come back for the classroom side of horti- culture and work in the winter greenhouse. The work on the greenhouse consists of taking cuttings from the plants in stock and making more plants. They also transfer plants to keep them healthy, and plant thou- sands of seeds for a spring sale. Another active part of horticulture is a landscaping crew that works on yards around the city. The Horticulture class at the 11-12 Center meets two periods a day, earning the students two credits. Horti- culture at the 11-12 Center is a vocational course.

DE is open to sophomores, juniors and seniors. Seniors earn two credits in DE, one credit in the classroom and another credit is earned by actual job experience. The student is re- quired to work a minimum of 15 hours a week to earn the credit. Distributive Education is an active class. They prepare for the business world by participating in exercises that deal with advertising, salesmanship, human relations, consumer math, economics, cashier work and job interviews.

Doing More Than Assigning Homework OHS teachers are involved in a variety of projects within the school that many students are probably not aware of. A committee of three 11-12 Center teachers, along with several other teachers, redecorated the teachers' lounge at the 11-12 Center. The committee made plans and completed the re- decoration of the lounge by putting in new furniture, decorating the walls, putting in smoke glass mirrors on one wall and parti- tioning off the Coke machine. The redecora- tion process lasted from the fall of 1976 through the summer of 1977. A lounge that used to be a women only lounge on the second floor was also redecorat- ed into a place for teachers to congregate. Staying in shape and not getting enough exercise after a long day in the classroom are common problems to OHS teachers. Many of the teachers solved that problem by getting together on Wednesday nights and sometimes Sunday to play volleyball in the 11-12 Center gym. Approximately 14 teachers fmale and fe- malej from both centers got together for the games. The teachers got more than physical bene- fits out of the program. 11-12 Center industri- al arts teacher Roger Worth said, It's so hard for teachers to get to know each other. It helped me to get to know other teachers better on a social level, rather than a professional level. They are entirely two different things. Teachers at the 9-10 Center were also busy with projects in 1977-78. Faculty and family members gathered at Le- gion Park in October for a picnic sponsored by the teachers. The teachers also organized a joint lunch with the 11-12 Center during one of the Saturday in-service days. During the fall of 1978, the teachers at the 9- 10 Center made plans for re-decorating the lobby at the 9-10 Center. The teachers hope to put in a planter like the ones at the mall, repaint the walls with more attractive colors and put some artwork on one of the walls.

Libraries Are More Than Books Have you read Carrie, Jaws, Roots, Hatter Fox, The Awakening Land, or Tes- timony of Two Men ? Maybe your tastes are more like Charlie Brown or the writings of I.R.R. Tolkien like The Hobbit, The Fellowship of the Rings, and The Simarillionf' Those were the most popular books in the OHS libraries last year. Mrs. Marilyn Hamilton, 11-12 Center librarian explained that students would see interesting movies and then want to read the books. Mrs. Helen Smith, 9-10 Center librarian, said that most students read the Charlie Brown books for pure pleasure, but the Tolkien books were mature fairy tales that were filling the void of not having fairy tales read to them as children, due to television. Not only are certain types of books popular, but certain sizes are also. Mrs. Smith pointed out n X i r ,5iflii.E.I.Qflf English 204fSupporting Cast ' n that paperbacked sized are in de- mand. When the two centers were formed, they received about 1,000 books from Southern. We are get- ting 52.50 per student for equip- ment, but with a discount our books cost about 56 each, said Mrs. Smith. Federal funds totaling 54,000 were given to the 9-10 Center me- dia center last year. Before spending the federal money, the 9-10 Center media center had 5,796 books, 70 maga- zine subscriptions, 2,770 visual- audio items and 174 pieces of audio-visual equipment. The 11-12 Center media center had 11,558 books, 75 magazine subscriptions, 3,999 audio-visual materials and 136 items of audio- visual equipment. - By Suzie Bartlett 1 3 Yvonne Thomas English Grant Talbott CHS' 'Heroes' Deserve Uscars Custodians, secretaries and lunchroom personnel performed many behind the scene tasks at Our High School, 1978. These people do not take the bows for applause, but they keep the show on the road. What if the custodians played hookie one day? The school would not be unlocked for the students and faculty. Custodians not only lock and unlock the school each day but, they sweep, mop, dust the desks, get chew- ing gum off the floors, doors, walls and halls. They also supply paper towels and toilet tissue, items that are always taken for granted. What if the secretaries in the office decid- ed to take a day off? The pupils who were really sick and missed school would never be recognized because no absence sheet would be made for that day. Late check-ins and check-outs would pose a problem without a secretary at the front desk. What would the teachers do with all the money they collect in home- room with no one to handle the bookkeep- ing. Administrators would also have trou- ble in getting out correspondence as well as would guidance and library personnel. If students ran to the cafeteria at lunch- time andthe lights were all out and no food had been prepared because all of the lunch- room personnel decided to take a skip day, the students would surely be up in arms. Clean plates and some food to put on them is essential for the cast members and it also provides them with something to fuss about each day. You might call this group - custodians, secretaries and lunchroom personnel - the unsung heroes of the supporting cast, the ones that deserve a standing ovation from the entire Cast of characters. - By Kathy Kunau t 3 ri +7 it 7 X -e::.tz1.-to l ',...,- it N-af X .4 j Don Wathen Librarian Henry Thompson Mathematics Secretaries at the 11-12 Center are ffrorn leftlz Tommie Horn, Nancy Purdy, lseatedj, Peggy Head, Nancy Troutman and Peggy Duckworth.

Fewer students would probably attend if that outing was to watch the sun rise over Elmwood Cemetary. 9-10 Center teacher Martha Snyder tries to take a few of her Gothic literature students to the cemetary every semester. After about an hour of examining tombstones and walking through the dew-soaked ground, the students, teacher and chap- eron Ms. Ann Boling went to Sambo's for breakfast. From the experience, the students were to write a descriptive paper of a cemetary scene. - By Suzie Bartlett Sophomores ffrom leftj Randy Miller, Scott Tucker, Lynn Riggs, Jackie Somerville and Roger Bostick waih an open graveifrom a dTsfance a etary. .. . ,.' 5 5. . , 1 1. fo' Sophomore Suzie Bartlett reads the date from a tombstone as the sun is just beginning to rise above the fog mist hanging over the cemetary.

Our High School has closed for the season. D No more daily dress rehearsals . . . no mc--e rushing ti get ,to the set on time . . . no more hassle to learn lines or parts . . . no encores. Each one of the 2,129 cast members had a special role to play in Our High School, 1978. Each individual was like a piece in a puzzle or link in a chain . . . without the .n the year and OHS wouldn't have been the same. It's not as if this is the last showing of Our High School. Without a doubt it will continue to run for years and years. However, the date and names of the stars will change. New names and faces will assume roles that seniors left behind under- st ,idy cast members will move up the ladder to stardom . . . fresli, inexperi- enced actors will come to Our High School to grow and learn. But never will another year hold exactly the same experiences and surprises as did 1978. Even though its over now, there will always be the memories of the thrills that were shared in victories and the agonies that came with defeats . . . the spice that kept OHS going during the year . . . and all the show- biz buddies and helpers that shared, in the spotlight, the tradition and achievement that makes every senior proud to say, I graduated from Owensboro High School. - By Brent Price Finale! 4 'Our High School, 1978' Program Specifications The 248-pages of this book form the program for the 1977-78 play -- Our High School.
