Patrick County Days Taking notes on the experiment and results was tougher than expected, as Vivian Joyce, Donna Pendleton, and Carolyn Pilson found out. Supervising the guinea pig was Gregg Clifton. Helping out in their own special way, Gary Penn, Tommy Strothers, and Scott Morgan worked on a project for Patrick County Days. WiS? Owls, and birds were Debra Clements’ fav¬ orite project. Patrick Coun¬ ty Days was a treat, as usual! This was the time when students showed their pa¬ rents just what they did in class. Everyone was asked to dress up crazy one day, and neat the next. In the year 1974 the girls had to do whatever the guys told them to do. This year in 1975-76 it was vice-versa. In art class, people make sculptures to put on display. Making their project more like fun was Tracy Puckett, and Carolyn Pil¬ son.

Tennis Team Team — Very Competitive THE 1975 GOLF TEAM: Coach Bill Pons, Jeff Turner, Ricky Ward, Tom Burnette, Eddie Burnette, and Matt Corbett. (Not pictured - Cabell Staples.) The 1975 Golf Team was indeed very competitive. The guys j.stacked up a 4-7 record, and had their best season ever. Th e Tennis Team played well for their first year of com¬ petition. The team was led by Joe Hiatt, Martin Clark, and Denise Foley. It was a young team. It should fare well in the future since all members but Martin Clark will be returning. They had tough competition, but the players played well. The highlight of their season came when the P. C.H.S. Golf Team defeated the Bassett team in a very close match. The Most Valuable player of the team was Tom Burnette. Throughout the season, he played well. Tom ended the season with the best average in the Piedmont District. He represented the District in Regional Competition and then in State competition. Since only Cabell Staples graduated, the 1976 team should compile an even better season.
