A Homecoming Dance, on October 4th, highlighted the football game. Everyone was doing his thing with music provided by Voyce. The DECA Club sponsored a sock hop in the gym to raise money for their organiza- tion. While they raised money, everyone else was raising ..... It proved to be a suc- cessful dance! It seems that every Junior Class lacks some money that they need in order to sponsor the prom and this year’s class was no exception. So to help themselves out a bit, the Juniors gave a sock hop which was DJ’ed by Darby James of W.R.E.L. Radio. The Parrimac staff presented a new type of dance; they called it the Necking Dance. Price of admission was the width of one’s neck times ten cents. Everyone then had to select his or her favorite paper tie before entering the dancing area. The students responded to the Rock-n- Roll music, danced their way through the fall, and proved that “the beat goes on”. You mean to say that he gets paid for that? he: ‘ae ee. @ eaeeoee® ies, Bag Soe aoa Happy faces reflect the mood of the dance. ge Le A C It’s raining, it’s showing! snowing, Annie’s petticoat is Page 2 News-Gazette, Lexington, Virginia Septe Black Paces Blues In Wan Over Wilson scrimmage to make Staton through the PAT ki After spotting Wilson Memorial a 7-0 lead, Parry McCluer used a swarming defense and the running of ‘Bruce Black to capture a 19-7 win Friday night at Fishersville. The win was the second straight of the year for BV and tied the Blues with Riverheads and_ upstart Natural Bridge for the Alleghany-Highlands lead, all with 2-0 marks. The script for the BVg conquest of the Hornets re much like last week’s 13 at Rockbridge. Black one score, caught a pa another and mystified Wilso the Blues rushing.

Black got plenty of h That also aroused the Blues Blues Halt by N-G staff writer It didn’t take Rockbridge very long to discover that being the defending cham- pion is a heavy load to bear. Saturday night on the Rebels’ field, Parry McCluer laid its claims to this year’s title by laying a 13-0 defeat on the 1973 title-holders. Hard-hitting and opening- game jitters accounted for generally sloppy offensive play, but solid defensive efforts by both teams and some wicked tackling provided thrilling action for perhaps the largest crowd ever to witness a battle at Rockbridge. This is the first time in recent memory that such a key game has come on the season’s opener for area schools, as the Allegkany- BMeghia Pe aR A Ee Black who crossed the goal line untouched. Barry Staton slugged the PAT through the crossbars for the 7-0 margin that was to be all BV would need. The game’s only other score came with 8:38 to play and was the result of a 41- yard drive following a Rock- bridge punt from the Rebs’ own nine. BV displayed the only consistent offense of the game on that short drive, getting two first downs and reaching the Reb seven. A bobbled exchange put the Blues back to the 14, but from there Bruce Black swept left end for the score and a 13-0 margin. Thé PAT was flubbed, but BV had the contest under control.

When they finally arrived you could see each face glow- ing with pride. It finally arrived; the day they had all worked so hard for ... The Prom.

The Sophomores are right in the middle of all activities. They put on a fine showing at pep rallies and in the hall decorating contests. Money-making projects including bakes sales, were very successful. Their responses are reflected in their smiling faces, jubilant voices and active participation.

The pride they have for their school really burst out when they won the Pep Stick four times, along with winning the hall contest. They planned well for the future while looking forward to the Prom by beginning to make money from Fruitcakes and Bake sales.

Now this isn’t history class but | have a date for you to remember; October 4, 1974. On this date the Fighting Blues of P.M.H.S. slaughtered the “Bisons” of Buffalo Gap and in doing so assured themselves of a Home- coming victory. Shouts of “we’re number one” came from the stu- dents and in truth were quite correct. The Fighting Blues went on to capture the District Championship title at the end of the sea- son and advanced to the Regionals in Saltville. The Homecoming court took the field during half- time of this eventfull night and Lisa Scott escorted by David Austin was crowned Homecoming Queen “74- Zoe Bo Bere Brystallation In previous years the installation of S.C.A. officers for the oncoming year has been held in the spring. Due to the lack of time, much con- fusion, and extreme controversy it was decided that it would be best to have the installations at the be- ginning of the ‘74-‘75 school year. The installation program got un- derway in a combination assembly given by the N.H.S. and S.C.A. on November 16, 1974. In the tradi- tional candlelight service, the old officers lit the candles of the new officers and then blew out their own. Each new officer signified his acceptance of his position in the ‘74-75 S.C.A. by repeating the oath of office. Leadership, scholarship, service, and character are the four qualities that are necessary in order for one to become a National Honor Society member. These qualities were ex- plained to the students and faculty at a combination assembly given by the S.C.A. and N.H.S. on November 16, 1974. After explaining the main features of the N.H.S., forty-one new mem- bers were “tapped in”. In conclusion the new members signified their new honor by pledging their loyalty to the National Honor Society. Janet says, “Come with me”, as she taps a new member.

Morris Fy Gass Moog By: Tennessee Williams Throughout the high school ; ; years willingly or unwillingly most A little bit of shakespeare students at one time or another are exposed to Shakespeare. Rarely do the students get an opportunity to view first hand a professional dra- matic reading of Shakespearian plays. Thanks to the combined efforts of the Drama Club and the English department, on October 24, 1974 the South Carolina Theater Touring Company presented “The Worlds of Hamlet and Macbeth.” It was a fine performance and when asked how they like the pre- sentation many students came back with the reply, “To be or not to be, that is the question.” Obvi- ously most students obtained some knowledge of a subject that they would ordinarily turn off to. lt was the Renaissance of Patriotism It isn’t often that a group of fourth and fifth graders can hold the interest of a high school audience. With the use of music, words, and film strips the presentation of “My Country Tis of Thee” did just that. We sat there astonished that these little people could not only educate us but move us to a deeper appreciation of “Our Country Tis of Thee”.

Here we go round in circles. The Christmas season is a time of merryment, misletoe, music and joy. This season all these things were put into a neat package and presented to the public as a Madrigal Dinner, presented by the P.M.H.S. Chorus, Concert Band, and other members of the school. As the Concert Band and Chorus played and sang their way into the hearts of the au- dience; unicyclists and acrobats provided some laughter and a different kind of entertainment while allowing the digestion of the delicious feast. Most everyone enjoyed the evening and after all, like the song goes ... “Tis the season to be jolly”. 51 Highlights Talent Mr. Temple does magical things with his wand. The Marching Blues were at it again, stunning the spectators with their super half-time shows, and hitting the streets in route to parade victories. They received many honors this year, one of which was a first place at the State Fair Marching Band Contest. The Marching Blues have become the Pride of the Commonwealth not only because of their hard work but also because of a mu- sic man who came here seven years ago to produce a super marching band. His dedication, concern, and love has allowed Mr. Temple to do just that. Mr. Temple wishes to pursue his musical career and thus will be leaving the Marching Blues this year. It will be a great loss to the kids who have served under him, but memories of his ac- complishments will linger in the air as again the Pride of the Commonwealth steps onto the field next year to begin yet an- other marching season. The Marching Blues begin their famed “circle drill.” The Pride of the Commonwealth Marches On What do you mean there is no half time show tonight? We practiced all week for tonight. Well what do you know, the Three Stooges are playing drums!! White Christmas ... The First Noel ... Joy to the World ... Two of the many Christmas Hall Decorations are displayed here. | told you | don’t want to be on Candid Camera! Jolly Ole St. Nicholas ... The S.C.A. wanted to get into the spirit of things and so the members decided that they should present something special to the students before the Christmas Holidays. This special something started with a Christmas hall decorating contest, ended with a sock hop, and in be- tween gave Santa a chance to get acquainted with the high school students. The Seniors received the $20 re- ward for the best decorated hall and Santa came around to all the homerooms distributing candy canes, taking Christmas orders, and spreading Christmas cheer on the day before the Christmas Holidays. The sock hop after school on that Same day gave the students a chance to get into the swing of the season. | gotta hand it to ‘em. These Juniors sure know how to mix their Pepsis!!

Many of us hit the dance scene and enjoyed the variety of music presented by some hot bands. The Foreign Language Club dance featured Voyce and taught the dancers some new ways of speaking the lan- guage of legs, hips and arms. Then there was the Ring Dance which the Seniors gra- ciously presented to the Ju- niors. The featured band called themselves Evel and their music was evilishly fun to dance to. To top off the winter danc- ing the cheerleaders spon- sored a Sweetheart Dance. The Group Fragile played some sweet music and the sweethearts in the bunch en- joyed every minute.

The West Virginia Tech Choral Dept. brought their talents to Parry McCluer in February of this year. Several numbers were presented by the Tech Choir and then the Tech Singers took the stage to present a variety of contem- porary songs. Several of the students marched around the auditorium to the tune of When the Saints Go Marchin’ In. There weren't too many saints in the group, but it was all in fun anyway.

We reached for the stars and found ourselves, Dancing in the Moonlight. We climbed every mountain and dreamed every dream and followed a few rainbows, only to find there was, No pot of gold. Our time, it was our time. We laughed a few laughs, shed a few tears, became individuals with our smoking and beer. We loved and hated together. We searched seeking truth and studied seeking knowledge, only to find that both existed to those who had already found them. Our time, it was our time. The memories linger as does the sweet smell of spring and we fade away from another, Go our separate ways— Goodbye my friends and remember, Our time; it was our time. -Charlotte Hedrick Carolyn Mae Black Rexter Ellis Black Cynthia Louise Brockenbrough James Cary Broughman 85 Katherine Marie Cash David Joe Campbell Jay Foster Brown James Mikel Clements Martha Gayle Coffey Cathy Ellen Chittum Michael Renee Carter Alicia Viar Coleman Donna Carol Coleman Yolanda Sue Coffey Carol Ann Ewald Joan Marie Fabrizio Sherry Gail Eakin MarVita LeAnn Flint Karen Lee Floyd Samuel Myrl Glenn III Deborah Elaine Greene Pamela Jane Hall Mark Andrew Hamric Linda Faye Hartless Dawn Elaine Hatcher Charlotte Ann Hedrick James Thomas Henson Charles Lee Hickman Steven Curtis Huffman Lewis Atkins Humphries Se David Earl Justice Mark Edward Justice 89 Deborah Doreen Martin Bernard Bernette Martin Susie Ann Martin Deborah Ann Mason Cynthia Kay Mays Michael McManamay Richard Ellis Painter Sarah Kathleen Radick William James Ridings Curtis Roberts Roberts Pep rallies couldn’t measure our spirit!
