Bookkeeping comes easily after lots of practice. From the Minor to the Extreme Problems Exist, But Prove to Be NO PROBLEM Problems. Everyone had problems, right? Of course problems ranged from the minor to the extreme. For seniors, the rewards after the problems were many. The first row of the student parking lot was reserved for the class of ’88, as well as smoking area privileges. The senior play was viewed by many to be the best student pro¬ duction ever given. However, the prob¬ lems and gripes did arise with upper¬ classmen who were complaining about the new absentee call-home policy, the loss of the “senior picture” in the back of the yearbook, and arguments over class statistics. Although seniors could repeatedly be heard saying, “Why are the class colors blue and white?” the class realized that when the year was over, their entire high school careers were over also. With that thought in mind, the class joined to¬ gether to overcome the many obstacles of the final year and were given the ultimate reward — graduation. No problem. For the underclassmen, challenges were created and met including the Jun¬ ior Class’ search for an awesome prom theme, the sophomores’ attempt to de¬ stroy the driving range before obtaining their licenses, and the subfreshmen’s and freshmen’s attempts to simply sur¬ vive and become a part of the active high school life. Students were rewarded with a beautiful gym on an April night, the little cards with plastic covers that gave freedom to drive, and friendships that would last a lifetime. No problem. With no problem at all, students chose goals and reached them. Whether the goal was a date with a special person, a new car, or a college scholarship, stu¬ dents chose not to dwell on these present stumbling blocks, but to look forward to the accomplished dream. No problem. MB’! IH 19(11 Summer breeze. Tamika Brown and Julie Reynolds find a slight breeze between the open door in the library and the fan that is blowing high speed. Opening n t) Student Life Divider 4 . 4 Student Life Divider No problem. So the tardy policy changed, challenging students to become even more responsible in getting to class on time. So the smoking regulations prohibited all but seniors the “privilege.” No problem, be cause changes meant progression, improvement, growth. And without growth, there would be stag¬ nation. So changes were expected. They came as no surprise. But, no problem. The students adapted with ease and an under¬ standing that more changes would take place as the years passed. They knew all along. Changes happen. No problem. Since the arrival of the movie, Witchboard, sales of the once popular Ouija board have increased. During weekend leisure time, Leon Simmons and Jay Young toy with the board in an attempt to test its ability. Finding something to do is no problem for Senior Jimmy Cockram and his friends. Local parks with basketball courts are an attraction for many students. While on their way to an assembly, seniors take advantage of their upperclass status to monopolize the space in the courtyard. During the back-to-school assembly, seniors were allowed to parade around the gymnasium so that they may be identified by the remainder of the student body. Student Life Divider 5 1 The Heat of Summer SIZZLING HOT! A round the beginning of June, stu¬ dents and teachers anxiously awaited for the final bell to ring at 3:02. Everyone was on the edge of their seats . . . their eyes were watching the clock and suddenly, Ring!! It’s summertime!! Students went racing out of the class¬ rooms, while teachers, with three more workdays to go, sat back and breathed a sigh of relief. Summer vacation held different op¬ portunities for everyone. Many of the seniors went on the traditional beach trip and caused a commotion at the ocean. Others chose to spend their sum¬ mer playing sports, attending camps or just loafing around the pool at DeHart Park. Those who weren’t soaking up the sun, shaping up in sports, or snoozing in the shade, were working at summer jobs. These jobs were as varied as the rec¬ reational activities. Some jobs included lifeguarding at the pool or teaching ten¬ nis lessons. Other summer jobs were not quite as enticing. Many students worked in fac¬ tories, supermarkets and restaurants. Other people put in several long hours working in tobacco and cabbage for local farmers. As the summer came to a close in late August, students had to stock up on school suppl ies and get back into the groove of school. Many of the graduating seniors packed up their belongings and moved into college. For them, the fun was just beginning. § MNfs While airbourne, Bert Stanley anticipates Being a lifeguard is a hot job, but Tara Mas- two points.

Summer 7 i School starts with HOT TIMES A s the mercury in thermometers began to creep up to the mid 90’s, the beginning of a new school year was right around the corner. Within the first few days of school, students could be seen fanning with school calendars or standing in front of fans in the class¬ rooms. Faculty found it hard to con¬ centrate on lessons with constant thoughts of being home in air condi¬ tioning. Sitting in class became a sweaty chore in the sweltering heat, but ulti¬ mately the solution was shortening the school day. Shorter days began almost immediately after the school year start¬ ed. Lasting through the heat seemed to be the first thing on everyone’s mind and school work was the last. Thoughts of icy mountains or cool streams soothed minds throughout the school until the following week when temperatures dropped almost twenty de¬ grees. Wardrobes changed from shorts and t-shirts to bulky sweaters and jeans. With the sudden chill, fans were put away for a short time for more warm weather was expected after only a few weeks respite. Despite the daily heated doldrum evening hours the early morn¬ ing coolness hinted of fall weather, with¬ in two months, schools were closing for a different reason — snow and ice! The heat does not appear to restrict Michael Gilliam from catching a few winks in study hall. In the heat of the day, Jeff Houchins finds refreshment in his Diet Pepsi. I 8 Heat The quiet halls create a cool atmosphere for this student to work on a test. Heat 9 Talented Ladies Bring Culture Home E veryone had special tal¬ ents ranging from visual and written art to academic and athletic ability. Accord¬ ing to many students, simply staying awake in class was a talent. However, several stu¬ dents took their natural tal¬ ents and produced class acts to watch. With her flawless skin and reed-slim figure, Tori Hylton attended modeling schools and seminars during the sum¬ mer months. In addition to modeling in national Seven¬ teen shows at neighboring malls, she also participated in pageants. During one pag¬ eant, Tori won a Gucci watch. “1 love my watch,” she said with a bright smile the cam¬ era loves. “Nothing makes me hap¬ pier than performing. I love bringing smiles to people’s faces.” For senior Bethany Tenman, singing and bring¬ ing smiles became a way of life. From county and state fairs, to Lakeside, to the world’s leading furniture market in High Point, NC, Bethany performed anywhere and everywhere she was sum¬ moned. Bethany was also one of the select group of young American vocalists selected to tour Australia and New Zealand. “Australia was so beautiful; I would love to re¬ turn there one day,” she said. Although Bethany’s first love was singing, (she won the state 4-H share-the-fun con¬ test at age 15) she also chore¬ ographed 4-H talent and school shows in past years. When asked about the band with whom she performs, Bethany stated, “Body and Soul is a jazz and contem¬ porary group with me as lead vocalist. We played regularly throughout thi s year.” In another spectrum of per¬ forming arts, dance was a ma¬ jor part of Kara Grifith and Dee Wood’s year. With seven years of dance training be¬ hind them, Kara and Dee per¬ formed in various dance com¬ petitions including Showstoppers in Lexington, VA. Showstoppers was a na¬ tional competition held in various cities throughout the country. The two juniors re¬ ceived honors in three catego- y ries of tap dancing, including character, novelty, and reg¬ ular tap, and also were named top duet of the day. The duet began participa- , tion in competitions through the 4-H club, and performed in the share-the-fun contest for their seventh year. Ac¬ cording to the partners in dance, “dancing has opened a lot of doors for us and has given us the opportunity to perform at different places and meet new people. Basi¬ cally it’s really fun.” As her voice fills the room, Bethany puts her heart into the song “Sister” at the High Point furniture market in NC. A winner of student and 4-H talent shows, Bethany has now turned more professional in style. 10 Student Talent II Dee Wood and Kara Griffith prove The photographer catches Tori that seven years of dance training Hylton’s natural beauty and grace, helps make professionals.

Student Talent 11 f The Excitement of PC Fun for Everyone Dreamland Week W here could one have found Kyle Petty, a demolition derby, a bevy of beautiful girls, Grandpa Jones, square dancing, and all the games and rides anyone could ever want? At the annual Patrick County Agricultural Fair, of course. Sponsored by the local Rotary Club, the fair was once again a huge success for the county, bringing in extra income for local businesses. The opening night of the event played host to the Miss Patrick County Fair Pageant. Senior Tammie Greer won the pageant and went on to represent the county at the State Fair. Tuesday was a busy night for the fair. Local 4-Hers showed off their handi¬ work in a fashion show, and county bands and dance troupes provided en¬ tertainment throughout the evening. To top the evening off, Kyle Petty, driver for the local Wood Brothers’ racing team, was on hand to sign autographs for his many adoring fans. Even though the rain poured on Wednesday, inclement weather did not stop people from playing the games and viewing the exhibits. The rain also did not inhibit local dare-devils from com¬ peting in the smash-em-up demolition derby. Friday night was a treat for senior citizens with square-dancing and the ap¬ pearance of Grandpa Jones from the CBS television show “Hee Haw.” A rousing fireworks display closed the fair Saturday night and brought to a finish week for all. A young local boy summed As the swings go round and round, Mike Pen¬ dleton smiles at Teresa Conner. Teresa’s eyes are closed — possibly in fear? up the fair with a simple sentence, “Mama, I have to go to the fair — it’s everything!” The bright lights of the fair give an illusion of another world. And for one special week eve¬ ry year, the dream of fair-land becomes re¬ ality.

PC Fair 13 oJL Faculty Play Snoopy i DOG-GONE GOOD “What’s up in those clouds anyway?” Mr. Moore as Linus waves at Goliath in the sky. CC ... waving at me, what do you see?” That one line from a song in the faculty presentation of “Snoopy” caused approximately 1200 students to laugh hysterically for two assembly pe¬ riods. That was quite a feat, considering that the singer was agriculture teacher Mr. Nelson Moore as he performed in the role of Linus. The faculty presented a comedy-musical in the Spring that was well-choreographed, humorous, and judging from the applause, was success¬ ful. Who could have resisted Mr. Arnold Kloock running around as the down¬ trodden Charlie Brown? Or Ms. Brenda Martin hopping up and down on a dog¬ house flapping her wings as she per¬ formed as Woodstock? Or even Mr. Donnell rolling around in the grass as the all-knowing Snoopy? “Snoopy,” a two-act play, was con¬ densed into a variety of sketches and was presented to the student body in May. The play, in its entirety, was later presented during a public performance. The cast included Mr. Donnell as Snoopy, Mr. Kloock as Charlie Brown, Mr. Moore as Linus, Ms. Bidgie Bu¬ chanan as Lucy, Mrs. Mary Jane Taylor as Sally, Mrs. Jane Akers as Peppermint Patty, and Ms. Martin as Woodstock. The chorus for the play included Mrs. Jo Moricle, Mrs. Janet Moore, and Mrs. Illene Pons, with Mrs. Rendy Williams as pianist. Under the direction of Mrs. Maria Oden, the faculty and educational staff members of the community joined to¬ gether for their second annual presen¬ tation. According to Mr. Donnell, “The play was a great opportunity for faculty who never sees each other to come to¬ gether. It gave students a chance to see teachers in a different light which teach¬ ers and students enjoy.” “What do you mean, that’s not the right an¬ swer?” Mrs. Akers, Mr. Klook, Mrs. Taylor, Mr. Moore, and Miss Buchanan study hard in class. 14 Faculty Play The cast of “Snoopy” gathers for the final production number of the comedy-musical. As Mr. Donnell, portraying Snoopy, looks on, Ms. Buchanan as Lucy, once again chastises Charlie Brown, played by Mr. Kloock. Faculty Play 15 Special Olympics Creates Special Events For Special People S pecial people gathered from all over the county April 10, to participate in the annually held Special Olympics. Sponsored by the Monogram Club for the ninth year, the games began with an Olympic march and the recitation of the Special Olympics creed, “Let me win, but if I can’t win, let me be brave in the attempt.” Brave was certainly one word to de¬ scribe these participants. Additionally they were hard-working, heart-warming, and especially fun-loving. Everyone had fun with the Special Olympics activities. Even though the Olympions received the ribbons and certificates, Momogram Club members received rewards that on¬ ly come from unselfishly helping others. The Monogram committees were headed by Wendy Law, who with other Special Education teacher, Mrs. Melinda Comer, Coach Astrop, Chevonda Nowlin, Jesse Dollarhite, and Charles East gather for lunch after a hard morning of activity. club members and Coaches Mr. David Clement, Mr. Gerald Culler, and Mrs. Lisa Astrop helped to make the games possible. Several high school students competed in the games. They included Kim Ray, Frances Pritt, Jesse Dol¬ larhite, Cindy Penn, and Chevonda Nowlin. According to Monogram Club members Heather Hill and Dee Wood, “The day gives the kids a chance to broaden their horizons.” As Lisa Handy looks on, Kim Gunter and friend enjoy the sun. “What do you mean I look like a horse?” Charisse Hill and special friend Michelle share in the fun of Special Olympics. 16 Special Olympics “Wow!

I Special Olympics 17 A Week of Fun Sparks HOMECOMING SPIRIT Homecoming Week is one that students and teachers alike look forward to. It is a time to boost school spirit and to show eve¬ ryone’s creativity. As the week started out, everyone knew it was a Monday by the weird hairdos and neon clothes seen sported by students. When Tuesday rolled around the neon changed to rainbows. Fifties clothes had also been pulled from the backs of parents’ closets. From Tuesday to Wednesday, the times jumped 20 years. Polyester and bell bottoms once again became popular, if only for a day. By Thurs¬ day, students had perfected the wardrobe of their favorite teacher. The jewelry was also piled on heavily. Friday was to be the day to show the most spirit by dressing for either “College Day” or “Spirit Day.” Between all the odd clothes, students were also gathering money, taking collections, and scrounging for pennies to buy spirit links. Over $1,000 was raised during the week. The honor of the longest spirit chain had for many years, been traditionally won by the seniors, with the junior class occasionally pulling through with a win. The freshman class overcame that tradition, raising over half the money for the SCA through spirit links. According to Greg O’Bryan, ninth grade English teacher, “They began collect¬ ing well in advance of Homecoming Week. When the idea came up that they could beat the upperclassmen, especially the seniors, they just went to work.” Students weren’t the only ones dressing up for Homecoming. Mark Donnell, one of the more creative teachers, shows off one of his Homecoming outfits. As always, the cheerleaders work hard to boost the spirit. Connie Bird and Jennifer “Cougar” Moran show their spirit by yelling cheers to the students. “We’ve got the beat. We’ve got the beat .. .” A pep rally wouldn’t have spirit without the pep band. It’s members fill the gym with Cou¬ gar pride. 18 Homecoming It has always been said that a picture is worth a thousand words, Cyndi Crissman’s excitement can’t be put into words as she is announced Homecoming Queen ’88, but her reaction says it all. Although he didn’t get to play in the game because of an early season injury, Timmy Barnwell watches his teammates. He was a loyal member and fan to his team for the entire remainder of the season. SPIRIT (con ' t.) I The freshmen celebrated their victory at the pep rally where the results were announced. Their spirits were high, but I the freshman spirits weren’t the ony ones. Everyone was excited about the upcoming game with Tunstall Trojans. Friday night finally rolled around. By half-time, Tunstall was ahead, but the fans were still in high spirits. The half¬ I time activities were dominated by the crowning of Cyndi Crissman as the new Homecoming Queen. Her senior court consisted of Marla Cassady, Kim Reyn¬ olds, Wendy Law, and Shannon Martin. The remaining members included jun¬ iors Mendy Coason and Kelly Handy; freshmen Tiffany Lawson and Shannie Shelton; sophomores MaryBeth Martin and Katina Plasters; and sub-freshman Tracie Hardin and Cheryl Lawless. During the last two quarters of the game, players pushed hard for the vic¬ tory, but were disappointed with a score of 7-14 in favor of the Tunstall Trojans. The game crowd dissipated, and the students quickly reorganized at the dance. The homecoming spirit had fi¬ nally dwindled down to couples on the dance floor. As the last notes faded, only the memories remained along with hopes of great future homecomings. Homecoming 19 Couples Feel Heavenly “Surprise!” David Hill points out a photographer to his date, while Scott Martin looks on. At the W hen spring rolled around, so did the excitement and intensity of the junior-senior prom. While the juniors were brainstorming and pre¬ paring ideas, the seniors were anticipat¬ ing that “special night.” After the theme was chosen, the hard work began. Meet¬ ings were held and committees were or¬ ganized. The week before the prom proved to be the most hectic. It seemed as though everything that needed to be done would never get done! Finally, after many long days and nights of work, results became evident. Having previously tried on their dresses ten times, the girls were still found getting ready three hours before their dates scheduled arrivals. However, the guys were concentrating mainly on getting that car clean, while leaving their Stairway moms to do the pressing of the tux. After dinner and some special attention, cou¬ ples arrived at the prom ready to catch a glimpse of everyone else and to have a great time. The wide smiles and “oohs” and “ahhs” showed everyone’s approval. Amazement was seen in every eye when the “Stairway to Heaven” came in to view. The rest of the evening was spent dancing the night away on that special cloud and making memories to last for¬ ever. “What kind of dance?” Tal Swails looks puzzled at his date Andrea Witt, as she suggests a new dance. 20 Prom f •Exemplifying his shyness, Clay Cassell shows his smile without looking at the cam¬ era. These students seem to be showing off their souvenirs as well as their attire. While in their own little “heaven,” Bert Stanley and Jenny Redmond pose for the photographer. lb Biggs Brings Basketball BACK A fter coaching for fifteen years and playing basketball since early high school, one could say that Coach Grandy Biggs knows almost everything about the sport. He proved his knowl¬ edge and experience after taking over the boys’ varsity basketball program this past year. “It was a complete change in the basketball program,” said Coach Biggs. Indeed the “turn-around” was a success; the team completed one of the most outstanding seasons in years. For such an achievement, Coach Biggs was the recipient of the Coach of the Year Award. Although the award was quite an honor for him, it came as a surprise. Biggs said that the award could have gone to any of the coaches; how¬ ever, his qualifications seemed evident. Mr. Biggs attended high school in Jacksonville, Florida and later attended a junior college. There he played on the team which ranked third in the nation. He continued playing basketball at Ap¬ palachian State University until he be¬ came a teacher. His love for the sport has brought him much success. It serves as an integral part of his seasonal coach¬ ing techniques. Accounting is but one of the many chores of physical education teachers. Prior to health class in Room 22, Mr. Grandy Biggs tallies money from the sale of gym suits and the collection of book fees. The smiles tell all! After receiving their awards for basketball at the Athletic Banquet, Mike Hall and Freddy Lee stand proudly with Coach Biggs. 22 Coach of the Year Athletic Banquet To be a tennis player takes a lot of skill and hard work.

These are the necessities needed in being a good wrestler. Wrestlers Robbie Mitchell, Randy West, and Kenny Bird, along with Coach Redden, showed these qualities by becoming Regional competitors. Many of the teachers take t ime out of their busy schedules to coach or help with a team. Discussing fall and winter sports, Mr. Biggs and Mr. Savedge go over the schedules for the basketball and football teams. Coach of the Year Athletic Banquet 23 1 Please send me some information.

After College Day, the Future LOOKS PROMISING C ollege day brought the future closer for many juniors and seni¬ ors on September 22. Representatives from colleges, universities, technical schools, and armed forces arrived to set up their displays. Four-year and two-year schools were represented as well as nursing schools, medical schools, and military service programs. Students met with these peo¬ ple in hopes of discovering the school they would be attending in years to come. Students inquired about courses of¬ fered, tuition, locations of schools, ath¬ letic programs, and student loans. Seni¬ ors received information from the schools of their choice. They were also found leaving the cafeteria and library with brochures, applications, phone numbers, and an occasional guarantee of admittance. College day aroused interest in many, discouraged a few, and took juniors and seniors out of class. Whether they were lured into the gathering to seek the school of their favorite college team, or missing that dreaded history test, stu¬ dents were beginning to put the pieces of their future together. Do you offer scholarships for academics? Keysia Conner and Andrew Valentine con¬ sult with this representative about courses, location, and student aid. We offer a variety of four-year courses.

W ith the air still nippy, students loaded the big chartered bus March 21, for the Senior Beta convention. Excitement and apprehension were felt by everyone including sponsors Mr. John Halsey and Mrs. Jo Moricle. Will this year’s club members behave? Will the water fights get us kicked out of the conference? After arriving in Williamsburg and standing in line for hotel room keys, club members gathered to campaign for our state Beta vice-president candidate, Amy Hopkins. As state Beta president Andy Shelton presided over the convention, members at¬ tended conferences and lectures. A panel of Patrick County students came in fifth for the entire Commonwealth of Virginia in the written quiz bowl competition. “You caught me with my mouth full!” Derina Hylton chomps away during one of the many pizza feasts at convention. After voting for state Beta officers, the club viewed a talent show, and many mem¬ bers attended the dance afterwards. Ap¬ proximately 45 local students attended the convention, making our Senior Beta di¬ vision one of the largest represented groups in the state which represented a driving force at the conference. Amidst the backdrop of the hotel room, Revonda Barbour, Ginny Williams, and Shannon Martin pose before attending the convention dance. During a free moment from the conference, Cyndi Crissman, Kara Griffith, Amy Hop¬ kins, and Connie Bird show their smiles for the photographer. For these young ladies, the memories of state Beta convention will last forever. “Are you sure my ear won’t fall off?” After just having his ear pierced, Junior Cassell examines the work. 26 Senior Beta Convention FWsiwSlMG3 Scns mn i$ “I heard it through the grapevine!” The choice of the “Grape” generation for state Beta vice-president was Amy Hopkins.

I didn’t get home from work until 10 o’clock, and then I had an essay to write.” That student took the test and passed — just barely. For all the busboys, wait¬ resses, cashiers, and gas station atten¬ dants that work after school and on weekends, homework sometimes came in second on the priority list. Why would students put their grades in jeopardy for just a 25-30 hour job? The reasons for after school employ¬ ment were as diverse as the employees who obtained jobs. Many were simply enjoying having a little extra money to spend for anything that came along. Other students saved their checks to prepare for life after high school, wheth¬ er for college or for a family. Other sav¬ ings included the dream IROC Z fund or the stereo system of a lifetime. However, the majority of students go to bed without finishing homework and sleep in class in exchange for that extra cash on weekends, and when asked, all the after-school employees stated that the money was surely worth it. With no problem at all, Beverly Cassady adds up a list of prices after the cash register breaks down. Beverly, along with others, works until midnight at E-Z Stop. “Is this what you need sir?” Mark Hooker, an employee of Western Auto, is one of the many students who leave for work release. 28 After-School Jobs “This cart-load of gloves isn’t going to get me down!” Esther Hanchey carefully prices items for sale. Esther is one of several students employed by Sky City. As he rings up $50.00 worth of groceries, James Nunn manages to keep his cool when a customer only has a $20 bill. Lowes Foods offers good wages and job ad¬ vancement, according to their employees. Kevin Rorrer answers a customer’s question concerning camera equipment. Kevin, anoth¬ er work release student, is also one of the many Sky City employees. After working several hours, Sonya Fain can still smile as she attaches that all-important receipt to the packages. Most students who work with the hard-to-please public after school still manage to create a happy atmo¬ sphere.

No it wasn’t as grand as Ma- cy’s Day Parade, but for the spectators, it was a delightful way to spend an af¬ ternoon. With the boisterous honks from antique cars carrying such honored guests as Governor Gerald Baliles and Senator Virgil Goode, the parade was underway. Representatives from the school par¬ ticipated in the event. The Patrick County Cougar Pride Marching Band Followed closely by his limousine, Governor Gerald Baliles, native to Patrick County, pa¬ rades slowly down Main Street, Stuart. played selections of Christmas music, while FBLA and Spanish club members walked in clown attire or in street clothes. With cheers and carols, the JV cheerleaders added spirit to the festival. As candy was tossed through the air, several students rode on skillfully and artistically designed floats, while others hitched rides on the back of fire engines or horse drawn wagons. However, whether parades were invited guests or people reaching out for attention, the crowd was enlightened by the occasion. A chilly day for the parade. As a member of the marching band, Tal Swails fights against the cold as he prepares to play in the Christ¬ mas parade. As one of the many floats that participated in the parade, this one shares with the crowd what is soon to come. Christmas Parade 31 Goode enough says . . . WE THE PEOPLE P atrick Countians celebrated the bi¬ centennial of the Constitution with ringing of bells, the playing of patriotic music, and speeches praising the doc¬ ument which has been a framework for 200 years. The Colonel Abram Penn Chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution sponsored a bicentennial assembly, with State Sen¬ ator Goode as the guest speaker. Senator Goode gave the same message to a gym¬ nasium full of students and teachers, that he gave to the small crowd that gathered in front of the baptist church in Stuart. Goode said, “The Constitution is one thing all Americans have in com¬ mon, even if they speak different lan¬ guages, come from different ethnic back¬ grounds, and have different religions.” Goode said the Constitution was amended by the ratification of states in 1971 allowing 18 year olds to vote. Leg¬ islators, sheriffs, and other government officials take their oaths of office by swearing to uphold the Constitution. The assembly was led by R. Todd Joyce, president of the SCA. The in¬ vocation and benediction were given by the Reverend George Stewart. The pres¬ entation of the colors was given by mem¬ bers of the Civil Air Patrol, C 2LT Jon¬ athan Clark, Jimmy Clifton, Carson Collins, and Arnold and Steven Overby. Goode received a standing ovation from the students. Mmmm Goode!”, said these students as they showed Senator Goode their support. Senator Goode expresses words about the Constitution as he talks to the entire student body at the Constitution Assembly. 32 Constitution Assembly ‘ oh sc n a r c GOODF ; “God bless America . . .,” sings Bethany Turman as she serves her country through music. “All rise!”, the Students stand to show re¬ spect for the U.S. flag. “Hut 2, 3, 4 march!”, expressed the four ROTC officers as they presented the flags to student body. K Senior Class Presents a Comedy FULL OF SENIORS I t is usually difficult to distinguish twins, but the Senior Play pulled it off with flying colors. “A Comedy of Errors,” directed by Mr. Michael Larson was the production presented by the Class of 1988. The main plot of the play was the mistaken identity between two sets of twins; Milo I, Milo II, Lucy I, and Lucy II. Milo I was played by Larry Wray. Larry said, “I liked the play mainly be¬ cause the character was basically the same as myself.” Milo II, played by Todd Joyce, did an excellent job staying in character. Todd said, “The hardest thing about the pro¬ duction was making the audience un¬ derstand it. It was fun, and all the time we put into it paid off.” “Todd Joyce and Larry Wray were the major characters, and they did great jobs playing the roles as twins,” expressed Mr. Larson. Other members of the cast included Bethany Turman who played Adriana. Adriana’s character was an obnoxious, illusive woman who cared for nothing except herself. Bethany explained, “I thought it had a lot of humor, and I enjoyed my character because she is a lot different than me.” Adriana was Luciana’s sister. The sister was played by Revonda Barbour. Luciana was the exact opposite of Adriana very sweet and innocent. Revonda expressed, “There were no problems for me, and putting on the play was the most enjoyable thing I’ve done in all of my years in high school.” Another member of the cast, Diana Turner, played the doctor who had to straighten out everything. Diana said, “I enjoyed being in the play, even though it was hard finding the time to practice, but overall it was a pretty good play.” There were four productions of “A Comedy of Errors” — One for the teach¬ ers, a public performance, one for the seventh graders, and one for the student body. With the help of Kim Reynolds, Stephanie Wimbush, and Margaret Mitchell working behind stage, the per¬ formances ran smoothly. “The show was just fabulous!” says Kim Reynolds as she sits down chatting with members of the cast after the seventh grade production of the Senior Play. “I can’t believe we pulled it off,” say mem¬ bers of the cast after a play production for the student body.

If so I’m available!”, says Ann Wyatt as she goofs off before a production. “I’m really proud of you guys,” says Mr. Larson as he silently expresses his feelings on the great job the seniors did in presenting the play. Friendship Days BEAT THE BLUES “Can I have a ride to school?” “Sure. No problem.” “I’m so sick of this cold. I can’t wait for the beach.” “I know. I’m just glad we can be to¬ gether.” “I really don’t know what I would have done without all my friends this year.” That conversation, typical of both seniors and underclassmen, could be heard almost each day. As the boring days of school frazzled nerves, friends leaned on each other for moral support and entertainment. The frequent sight of hugs and laughter in the halls showed the fact that the buddy system worked. According to subfreshman Julie Reyn¬ olds, “Everybody needed a friend to lis¬ ten to, to tell their problems to, and to be there for them.” Senior Ronald Penn added, “Without friends to help you at school, you would crack under the pres¬ sure.” From finding the correct homeroom on the first day of school, to cramming for midterms, to searching for the per¬ fect prom dress, to sharing secrets about a special girl, friendships were developed stage by stage into life-long bonds. All relationships had their ups and downs; however, the true friendships lasted through the hard times and be¬ came stronger. Although friends would move away for college or for other rea¬ sons, students knew the ties would never be broken. Senior Terrie Dillon summed it up when she said, “Life would be noth¬ ing without my friends.” Forever friends. Beach plans on their minds, seniors Terrie Dillon, Bethany Turman, Gin- ny Williams, and Shannon Martin share a special moment before first period. Comical companions.

They give diversity and add expe¬ rience to the group as a whole. Belonging was just as important as main¬ taining individuality, and in a group, in¬ dividuality was sometimes misplaced. No problem though. Everyday socialization with friends, clubs, and classmates give the school an atmo¬ sphere. Everyone contributes! No problem. Everyone needs a little time to themselves. While enjoying her music, April Hill relaxes and fo¬ cuses on the school day ahead of her. |l “It’s going to look great!” Connie Bird assists Leigh Boyd as she anxiously awaits her turn in front of the camera. Many students show their per¬ sonality by the way they dress. While discussing the previous weekend, Sharon Hubbard is making the fashion statement that says she is in with the new trend of blue-jean wear.

With the class size of 215 students, the only appro¬ priate song was “Up Where We Belong.” The class mas¬ cots were Beth Sawyers and Burkhart, and the theme was “As we grew, we grew togeth¬ er. Our memories are in our hearts forever.” Later in the year the class met to discuss procedures for ordering announcements and other items. The date came for ordering and tassels and memory books were passed. With memory books in hand, everyone knew the end of the year was near. Promises were made along with plans for the future. Fi¬ nally, graduation came and the seniors were ready to go their separate ways. Although the 1988 senior class was wild and crazy in their own way, their family¬ like relationships and their good nature made them last¬ ing impressions on those left behind.

Doing If And Doing If Righf Are THE ROOM MOTHERS When it came to taking care of the seniors, nobody did it better than the room mothers. They fixed food for the senior picnic and for the graduation party at Sport- slanes in Martinsville. This was what they did for the se¬ nior class as a whole. They also offered guidance and un¬ derstanding to the individual students, as only a mother would. The room mothers were elected by the seniors in the fall as part of the many class decisions. Many mothers were nominated, but only twenty could be chosen. Eve¬ ry mother wanted to be a part of their child’s senior activ¬ ities, despite the sad feelings they had of seeing their sons or daughters graduating and growing up. Whether or not the seniors were behaving, the room mothers seemed to always have total control. With ap¬ plause at the senior picnic, the seniors showed appreci¬ ation for the yearlong organ¬ ization and dependability of the room mothers! 42 Seniors ] JOHN S. BOLES JR.: VICA 11-12.

Seniority Takes Priority With The NEW SENIOR PARKING LOT No more running! No more pushing and shoving! No more fighting to get to a car! All of these things ceased be¬ cause of the designation of a new senior parking lot, which was enjoyed for the first year. Seniors were given the privilege of the entire second row for their cars only. In¬ cluded was the right to leave ahead of the underclassmen. Teachers enforced these new rules as well as the old ones, including not being at the school until 8:30, and no sit¬ ting in the cars before school. Seniors weren’t exempt from these rules; however, the parking lot added to fun of being a senior! 44 Seniors CYNTHIA LYNN DALTON: Band 8-11; Health Careers 8. TERRY DILLION.

That ' s What Makes A Good 8CA PRESIDENT There were many student leadership positions available in the high school, but the one with the most prestige and responsibility was that of the SCA president. When Todd Joyce received the title of SCA President, he had an idea of how tough it would be. He began his duties in the summer by working on such projects as reorganizing the Freedom Shrine Wall and making out the new school calendar. He was also respon¬ sible for having the senior parking lot designated. With the help of Miss Bidgie Bu¬ chanan and the other SCA officers, Joyce remarked that his job was made easier. When asked what was the hardest thing he had to do, he replied by saying that “getting up in front of eve¬ ryone at assemblies was the hardest!” Some other duties to which the president diligently at¬ tended were the preparations for assemblies and dances, and taking care of the student body. One duty example was Joyce’s involvement in the es¬ tablishment of a Youth Coun¬ cil. The Youth Council was formed to smooth out disci¬ plinary problems among the students through open stu¬ dent discussions. Although his position was tough, Todd Joyce had many successes and also attained good grades. To sum up his year as SCA president, he graciously commented “The teachers and students have supported throughout the year which motivated me to do a good job, and I’m glad I had the experience of respon¬ sibility because I think it will help me in the future!” The duties of the president never end! Taking a break from his hectic schedule, SCA President Todd Joyce finds time to take a short nap. A good leader always finds time to help out others. President Todd Joyce makes sure that eighth-grader Jamie Clark knows and respects the rules. Seniors 47 Allowances and Odd Jobs Help to Defray THE COST OF BEING A SENIOR Annuals, pictures, an¬ nouncements, caps, gowns — the list goes on and on! These were just a few of the items that made being a senior EX¬ PENSIVE! However, many seniors tackled the problem of money by getting part-time jobs. That way, parents couldn’t keep saying, “How much now?” Some parents still helped pay for part of the expenses, because when you’re a senior, nothing could be left out. Included with the caps and gowns were diploma covers, memory books, t-shirts, mugs, and jewelry. All of these items together left a big dip in everyone’s wallet. SAT’s, college applications, and the prom were also the major necessities of seniors. By the end of the year, par¬ ents were glad to see their children graduate. Oops! We forgot about the BEACH TRIP!

The hang-out not only attracts high school students, but many older people as well. Movin ' , Cruisin ' , To The New HOT SPOT In the past, a common sight on weekends was eve¬ ryone cruising around Tex’s Drive-In to see friends and just “hang out.” However, since Tex’s closing, teenagers had no place to go except to school-related functions. Finally, a new place right across the street from the previous hot spot was opened. The Ice Cream Churn grad¬ ually became a place where people crowded to shoot pool, play video games, and most importantly to eat! The park¬ ing lot was constantly buzzing and so were the voices of friends. Not only did the stu¬ dents have a new place where they could socialize, but they also had a new tradition!

Although the senior class officers were inexperi¬ enced in procedures, they made up for their lack of knowledge with creativeness an d ideas. Since there was more than enough money in the senior account, graduation and oth¬ er related activities were more easily planned. The of¬ ficers met with Chairperson Mary Jane Taylor several times to discuss agendas and make preparations for class meetings. The officers were also a part of the senior steer¬ ing committee which made decisions about graduation announcements, caps and gowns, t-shirts, and the painting for the senior wall. The senior class was able to pay for half the cost of the diploma covers, and the other half was included with cap and gown prices. When asked what it was like to lead the senior class, Wendy Law replied by saying, “I think it was a great honor to take on the responsibility of the seniors.” Whether it was together in a group or an individual effort, the senior class officers made it a year to remember.

By the time most seniors graduate, they have already decided on what the future will hold. There was a varied number of di¬ rections in which the seniors were going. For some, only the imme¬ diate future was at hand, so the plans for the beach trip was their main concern. For those whose minds don’t touch the future until it ar¬ rives, what was to become of them after high school re¬ mained uncertain. Only a few people antici¬ pated marriage and family life. Several, however, had prepared for the working world in either local jobs or training in the armed forces. The most part of the seni¬ ors had planned to attend a particular college or univer¬ sity of their choice. Since many didn’t know which ca¬ reer they would pursue, gen- eral studies was their “major.” Whichever path the stu¬ dents chose, it was certain to be a success!

Putting the future aside, Ann Wyatt :oncentrates primarily on the present task at land. To achieve personal goals, students must work diligently and apply themselves well. While reading Macbeth , these students prove their application and their ability to strive for good grades. Seniors 55 i A D on a paper and an F on a project means it ' s time to STUDY QTUDY QTUDY Study time took up most of the students’ daily time. They sat in classrooms for six hours a day and then were expected to go home and study two or three hours more. The average student spent ten to fifteen hours a week on homework alone, which in the course of the year, really added up. With this time devoted to school, there was very little time for socializing or for watching television. The students involved in extracurricular activities dis¬ covered troubles when it came to homework. They had to find time in the mornings, between classes, during lunch, or even on the bus to complete the work because of lost time by staying after school. In addition, there were those who had part time jobs and found very little time to spend on their studies. But on occasion, teachers compromised and did not as¬ sign the fifteen chapters to read or the fifty problems to work, for they understood the appreciated break.

The class officers were Me¬ lissa Hill, President, Amanda Cassell, Vice-President, and Kelly Handy, Secretary. All of the positions took a lot of time and responsibility. Pres¬ ident Melissa Hill expressed, “Being president gave me a good opportunity to practice public speaking, meet the stu¬ dent body, and it helped me to better my class in school and in the community.” There is little time to relax when you’re a junior class officer. Pos¬ ing on the school van are Pres¬ ident Melissa Hill, Vice- President Amanda Cassell, and Secretary Kelly Handy. There’s always a time for work and a time for play. Making sure that they have a sufficient amount of play are juniors Neil Robertson and Brad Clontz. 58 Underclassmen I Glenn Blackburn (11) Stephanie Blake (8) Polly Blankenship (10) Kathy Bocock (10) Timothy Bohan (9) Denise Boles (10) Billy Bowers (9) Jeannie Bowers (8) Michele Bowers (8) John Bowles (9) Lee Bowling (9) Ronald Bowling (9) Amy Bowman (9) Chadwick Bowman (8) Clyde Bowman (11) James Bowman (11) Jeffery Bowman (9) Kara Bowman (11) Larry Bowman (9) Lewis Bowman (10) Lynn Bowman (8) Lynnette Bowman (11) Michelle Bowman (11) Renee Bowman (9) Rhonda Bowman (11) Rita Bowman (8) Roger Bowman (8) Ronnie Bowman (11) Tracey Bowman (9) David Boyd (11) Gregoey Boyd (10) Karen Boyd (11) Lee Boyd (8) Melinda Boyd (9) Melvin Boyd (9) Nancy Boyd (10) Nash Boyd (8) Rebecca Boyd (8) Ricky Boyd (10) Stacy Boyd (11) Traci Boyd (11) Jamin Brackett (10) John Brammer (10) Nathan Branch (9) Cornelious Brim (10) Fionn Brim (11) Vonita Brim (8) Robert Brown (9) Tamika Brown (8) Stephanie Bullington (10) Candice Bullins (8) George Burgart (11) Angel Burnette (8) Micheel Burnette (8) Sabrina Burnette (9) Ruby Campbell (8) Charles Cannady (8) Jake Card (10) Donald Carter (11) Roger Carter (10) Tony Carter (10) Tracy Carter (10) Tyron Carter (8) I Underclassmen — Blackburn-Carter 59 Bill Carter (10) Amy Cassady (11) Barry Cassady (10) Beverly Cassady (11) Malissa Cassady (10) Mary Cassady (10) Scott Cassady (11) Thomas Cassady (8) Amanda Cassell (11) Gary Cassell (8) Monique Champion (10) Robbie Chandler (8) Tammy Chaney (11) Timmy Chaney (10) Shannon Childress (8) John Chitwood (9) Mary Clanton (10) Andrea Clark (8) Anthony Clark (9) Chris Clark (10) Deborah Clark (11) Jamie Clark (8) Jonathan Clark (10) Joseph Clark (8) Lisa Clark (10) Nichole Clark (11) Rhonda Clark (11) Joy Clement (11) Sandy Clement (11) James Clifton (10) Scott Clifton (9) Craig Clontz (9) Brad Clontz (11) Mendy Coalson (11) Chris Cobbler (8) William Cobbler (9) Penelope Cobler (9) Barry Cockram (11) Billy Cockram (8) Janice Cockram (9) Rebecca Cockram (10) Stephanie Cogar (8) Amy Collins (8) Carson Collins (11) David Collins (9) Gearld Collins (10) John Collins (9) Mark Collins (8) Mark Collins (9) Marla Collins (8) Melanie Collins (10) Scott Collins (11) Susan Cillins (9) Timothy Collins (10) Tracy Collins (9) Gary Conner (9) John Conner (9) Michael Conner (11) Tammy Conner (8) Jamie Cooper (11) Christy Corn (11) Angela Corns (9) Kevin Corns (9) 60 Underclassmen Carter-Corns ■ Some You See. Some You Don ' t. TALLS AND smalls IN HALLS Everywhere the halls were filled with eighth, ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth graders. Some of the students were 4 feet “small” and others exceeded 6 ' 6 . How did it feel to be so short with some eighth graders taller than you? Marla Cassady answered. “Being 5 ' 1 and in twelfth grade doesn’t bother me be¬ cause it’s not how tall you are but what you can do with what you’ve got.” Another small person is Amy Collins who is 4 ' 4 and in the eighth grade. She is also a J.V. cheerleader, so being short doesn’t bother her on bit. Some smaller people have certain advantages, while tal¬ ler people have other advan¬ tages. Mike Hall, a 6 ' 6 junior, is the tallest guy in the school. He use his height on the bas¬ ketball court. He said, “I like being tall. I always seem to get the full picture.” He also said, “I’d rather be tall than short, and it really doesn’t bother me.” It really doesn’t matter if you’re short, middle height, or tall. We can all set goals, accomplish them, and walk away proud. Heights in the halls are varied from tails (Patricia Hylton), to smalls (Chastidy Moles and Adam Wright). “Are you sure you go to this school?” Amy Collins explains to Mike Hall that she has just as much right to walk the halls as he does.

It’s 7:00 and a Monday morning. Great. You roll over and slam your hand down on the snooze button to stop the constant beep or perhaps you just give the clock a fling. Your eyes feel like a sandy beach and then suddenly your brain clicks and remembers the English term paper that’s due TODAY! Oh well, just an¬ other typical Monday morn¬ ing of a teenager. For some, Mondays are just as terrific as Fridays. These people are usually the ones who want to go to school and see that special guy or gal. Or maybe they just want to go and show off a new outfit. But for most, Mondays are considered to be D-days. D-days have different meanings for different peo¬ ple. For some it could mean getting back a Chemistry test with a “D” on it or it could mean that they have P.E. that week. Though Mondays are enjoyed by a few and dreaded by many more, as the week comes to a close, a fa¬ miliar phrase can be heard by students.

But whether they saw the grounds lightly covered or five to ten inches of snow, inevitable, schools were to have surely been closed. Radios were quickly switched on and anxious ears awaited that famous confir¬ mation, “There will be no school in Patrick County to¬ day.” With this announcement, pillows were fluffed, covers rolled back, and the decision to sleep in for the day was made, or TVs were turned on. Books were also opened to the assignments not finished the night before. Later, some caught up on soap operas, cleaned the house, or just sat around talking on the phone. Whether students missed t heir opportunity to give book reports, turning in re¬ search papers, or missed that dreaded history test, the short vacation was enjoyed by all. Time to go back to bed. Another day is missed due to nature’s white blanket. As alarms sounded early those cold winter mornings across the county, many stu- Rather have this than school? Awakening to this sight means school is definitely closed. ■■■ Corinna Gregory (8) Stephanie Gregory (8) Christy Griffin (9) Amy Griffith (9) Brian Griffith (8) James Griffith (11) Kara Griffith (11) Talley Griffith (10) Angela Grogan (10) Marcia Grubb (8) Ronnie Grubb (8) Jennifer Gunnell (8) Chris Gunter (10) Daren Gunter (10) Kim Gunter (11) Lori Gunter (9) Ramona Gunter (11) Tammy Gunter (10) Janice Haden (10) Shelly Haden (9) Wendy Haden (10) Underclassmen — Gregory-Haden 65 Go Ahead. Smile. YOU ' RE ON CANDID CAMERA! “Stop! Hold that pose. No, no, don’t look at the camera. You’ll ruin everything.” Many students heard this as they walked the halls or sat in classrooms. Loaded cameras were worse than guns when pointed in the direction of camera-shy people, yet when bold students were the sub¬ jects, the camera was a mere toy. With the utmost discre¬ tion, photographers focused and prepared to snap the pic¬ ture. Just as their presence was known, students turned towards the camera with ob¬ scene gestures or they ducked under coats. These responses left annual staff members helpless. Pictures of headless people or inappropriate poses could not be taken and in des¬ peration the quest for good pictures went on. “Take this picture, and I’ll hurt you.’’ Glenn Blackburn hides his face and joins the club of “Camera Shy People.” “Don’t mess with the ‘Ugly Pa¬ trol’.” Lee Kahan, Scott Stanley, Chris Kandies, and George Sloan display their badges as they roam the halls. These guys aren’t cam¬ era shy. “Smile? How about this face?!” Bert Stanley and Kirk Gray find a place under the bleachers to get away from the crowd, but they are not able to get away from the camera. 66 Underclassmen l Mr Carolyn Hagwood (10) Corey Hairston (11) Diane Hairston (8) Leona Hairston (9) Montia Hairston (8) Alison Hall (9) April Hall (11) Bryan Hall (10) Darlene Hall (8) Jerry Hall (8) Joey Hall (11) Kevin Hall (11) Kristi Hall (10) Mike Hall (11) Michael Hall (9) Natalie Hall (8) Patrick Hall (11) Robert Hall (11) Selena Hall (11) Sherry Hall (11) William Hall (10) Tonya Halsey (11) Greg Hamm (11) Jennifer Hamm (8) Kim Hamm (10) Tammy Hall (11) Johnny Hammond (8) Esther Hanchey (11) Kristy Hancock (8) Tonya Hancock (9) Cheryl Handy (10) James Handy (9) Kelly Handy (11) Kenneth Handy (10) Kevin Handy (9) Lisa Handy (11) Sherry Handy (11) Douglas Harbour (11) Tracy Hardin (8) Sara Harnsberger (9) Jeanne Harrell (10) Jeffery Harris (9) Julie Harris (10) Lisa Harris (11) Christine Havens (8) Jennifer Hawks (8) Kristi Hawks (11) Steven Hayden (8) Bruce Hayden (11) Brad Haynes (11) Elizabeth Haynes (10) Lori Haynes (8) Shani Haynes (9) Tracie Haynes (9) Amy Hazelwood (11) Chris Hazelwood (11) Leonard Hazelwood (8) Todd Hazelwood (8) Jennifer Hearl (9) Joey Hearl (8) Amanda Heath (11) James Heath (11) Melanie Heath (11) J Underclassmen — Hagwood-Heath 67 Senioritis leads to V ABUSE “The front office? Yes, it’s down the steps to your right.” “Excuse me, but this is the Senior Table!” These are just a few exam¬ ples of the typical abuse given by the seniors each year to the sub-freshmen, commonly known as “greenies.” It’s not that eighth-graders really deserve any torture, but it’s just that this is an annual event, and seniors seem to look forward to it. Some seni¬ ors pick on greenies to back some of the abuse they re¬ ceived when they were eighth-graders. Others just enjoy deceiving and fretting the greenies, probably to live up to the mighty senior im¬ age. This is not to say that all seniors take part in this abu¬ sive action, but unless you do this just once, you never re¬ ally can feel like a “Mighty Senior!” “We’re not really all that bad,’’ says senior R. Todd Joyce to Doug Richards. “Greenies will take any attention they can get. Quick, Doug, grab his feet!” “Smile when you say that,” says senior W. G. Easter to eighth- grader Robert Worley.

This was also their last year of fund raising which gave them the money needed for the prom and graduation.

And then there was the guy who thought his desk was a snare drum even though he was not in the marching band. These habits, among others, were a frustration for teachers and classmates alike. Often, the act of sitting in the classrooms seemed to ac¬ tivate these sounds. Whether it was before taking the mid¬ term exams, or during the teacher’s lectures, there was a certain unconscious relax¬ ation found in these motions.

Are They Just Facte Or EXCUSES, EXCUSES! “The dog chewed it up!” “I left it out in the rain and a car ran over it.” “I just forgot to do it because I had a ball- game.” These a re just a few of the excuses teachers got from students when they had for¬ gotten to do their homework, or they forgot to bring their pencils, pens, paper, and books to class. This type of thing has probably been going on since the beginning of school time. Students never fail to say something that they hope will given them a couple of more days on an assignment. Some teachers may have been le¬ nient, but others took no “excuses” and gave the orig¬ inal zero. Why the excuses? “Because I can’t face the con¬ sequences of my actions, and to avoid punishment,” said senior Ginny Williams. Ex¬ cuses seemed to be the only way out so that’s why stu¬ dents did it.

Did you ever find yourself buying a Spuds Mackenzie shirt, or a pair of acid washed jeans? If so, you were just keeping up with the new fash¬ ions. Denim seemed to be the major fashion in a group ranging from dresses, to foot¬ wear, to accessories. Guys with earrings and girls with longer hair were also widely- sported fashions among the students. However, most peo¬ ple dressed for their comfort, not necessarily for the style. Many students also dressed according to their moods. “If I feel lousy, I dress in faded blue jeans and a large t-shirt and if I feel good, I dress up,” said senior, Ann Wyatt. Jun¬ ior, Freddie Marshall summed it up by saying, “One thing is for sure at this school, ANYTHING GOES!” High school is a time for self- expression and finding oneself. While on his way home, Phil Lawson expresses his new style with an earring.

Feet placed casually in the empty seat in front of you. Back slouched only to a slightly reclined position. Head gently rested on the desk behind you. Ah!, a com¬ fortable position. Too bad it took the entire period to find it. Many students innovative- ly searched for ways to be comfortable in the classroom. Whether the desks were too hard, classes too long, or any other excuses, there was usu¬ ally constant movement among the students. Desks became footrests, pillows, and occasionally rocking chairs. And with “class clowns,” desks were used as props in their daily escapades. Although students found no complaints with their style of sitting many teachers asked the pupils to sit “in the desk properly.” With both feet placed level on the floor, for those who could touch, and hands settled on top of the desk, the question still re¬ mained, “Why can’t we be comfortable?” Allen Tatum (8) Angela Tatum (8) Bessie Tatum (11) Cicely Tatum (10) Kevin Tatum (11) Rachel Tatum (10) Jinna Taylor (10) v -V • !

Class rings! Glory day finally arrived for the Juniors around mid- October. The excitement and pride that they felt showed on their faces and these feelings carried them all the way down to the football field. The traditional class ring ceremony was altered in some ways for this class. They were allowed to have a pizza party at the football field, and af¬ terwards, rings were given out. The next half hour or more filled with talking, laughing, and of course, showing off the class rings. Why did the Juniors make such a big deal about getting their rings? Because it WAS a big deal. Class rings are im¬ portant to most people be¬ cause rings are personalized with names, academic and ex¬ tracurricular achievements. Class rings are not only used to symbolize these personal achievements, but are also given as a symbol of “going steady.” Junior, Michelle Bowman summed up the exciting event when she said, “We FINAL¬ LY got our class rings!” 84 Underclassmen Vansutphin-Vineyard F A Kristy Vipperman (9) Sheila Vipperman (11) Barry Vippermin (9) Brian Wade (10) Timmy Wade (11) Angela Wagoner (9) Amy Walker (8) Dale Walker (10) Joey Walker (10) Kristin Walker (11) Melanie Walker (10) Sharon Waller (11) Mathew Weiss (8) Tony Weiss (8) Gayle West (9) Jennifer West (10) Randy West (11) Toni West (8) Richard Willard(8) Carloyn Williams (11) Erik Williams (10) Mine is an April stone, what about yours?

Their first pri¬ ority is to complete assign¬ ments so they won’t get be¬ hind in classwork,” explained Mr. Clement. The system was set up in a more organized manner. Not all students were put in In-School Sus¬ pension. Some may have been sent home, but most of the time the length of punish¬ ment for a single violation. Mr. Clement said, “The stu¬ dents may have a habitual problem, and for many others it’s a first offense.” After a long day of studying this student takes a break. In-School Suspension is located in the Band room. Underclassroom — Woodward-Young 87 Administrative Personnel Keep School Running Smoothly With Changes Leaving NO EMPTY SLOT With eight years of expe¬ rience at the high school, As¬ sistant Principal Bill Dillon had become a familiar sight to students. However, Dil¬ lon’s transition to Woolwine Elementary School as Prin¬ cipal did not leave an empty slot in the office. Mr. John Shore, an already well-recognized figure in the county school system, felt at home with his new position as Assistant Principal in charge of discipline and at¬ tendance. He spent two years at Woolwine as Assistant Principal, teacher and coach, and, later taught three years at the high school while serv¬ ing as athletic director and coaching baseball. Mr. Shore’s educational service continued in the county with a five year prin- cipalship at Red Bank Ele¬ mentary School, and nine years of teaching experience at Patrick Springs Elemen¬ tary and Stuart Elementary Schools. Shore received his bachelor of science degree in physical education and education from Milligan College in Tennessee and his master of science in physical education from East Tennessee State University. Additional administrative personnel included Mr. James K. Hiatt, Dr. Sally Rodgers, and Mr. Mike Mor¬ rison. As principal, Mr. Hiatt served as the instructional leader of the school in charge of administration. He also su¬ pervised all programs related to the high school. Dr. Sally Rodgers, Assis¬ tant Principal of Instruction and Secondary Supervisor was responsible for the im¬ plementation and evaluation of the academic instructional program. In addition, she provided assistance to teach¬ ers when needed. Mr. Mike Morrison, Vocational Direc¬ tor supervised the activities and programs in the voca¬ tional building. MRS.

Meetings and Memos Keep Department Heads ON TOP OF IT ALL Preparing goals, fixing the budget, at¬ tending meetings and conferences, pre¬ paring for inventory, and implementing curriculums. These duties, along with another long list were the various and demanding duties of the department heads. These were teachers who coor¬ dinated the activities of each academic department in the school. Although an extra planning period was given, work often lingered into teachers’ free time. The responsibility and experience that was required came with the dedication of each person who headed a particular department. Most of the department heads had the job be¬ cause of their previous involvement and leadership within the department. Phyllis Eastridge, English department head stated, “It is very demanding and stressful at times.” “I relay from the Administration back to the teachers in the department,” said social studies department head Rachel Williamson. Despite the hard work, all of the de¬ partment heads teachers kept up-to- date with their jobs both in and out of the classroom. Most of the teachers who have served as a department head have held the position for more than four years. Faculty 91 ■ Results Are Obtained As If By Magic When Supporting Staff Members Work From BEHIND THE SCENES Throughout the year the supporting staff played a vital part in keeping the school wheels rolling. The custodial and cafeteria employees worked each day behind the scenes to help create a better school environment for stu¬ dents. Each day Mr. James King and others could be seen ready to take care of any emergency that arose. The custodial staff was on duty around the clock, with Ms. Alma Ruth Hill, and Mr. Harry Mengelt arriving each morning at 4:00 to prepare classrooms for students. Throughout the day the workers swept the floors twice a day and did all minor repair work. When students were able to bask in the sun of summer vacation, the staff was just getting started. According to Mr. King, “We refinish every floor and use between seven¬ ty-five and eighty-five gallons of wax. We complete all re¬ pair work and go over every foot of the school.” According to Ms. Hill, “I like my job because I like the students. They’re very sweet.” The cafeteria workers pushed themselves each day to meet the demanding schedule of school lunch. Serving over seven hundred pizzas along would have caused many people trauma, but the ladies in the cafeteria handled that and much more. From making homemade des¬ serts to putting up stock, to dealing with rampaging, hun¬ gry students, the staff took each task one at a time. According to cafeteria manager, Mrs. Pearl Turman, “The school lunch was a good one. It gave the student the energy to continue the day.” MR.

During her stay, Ms. Goette dispersed her talents and relieved writers’ blocks for many people. Numerous workshops, during or after school, were held for stu¬ dents, while several teachers spent Saturdays with the writer. Through her workshops, Ms. Goette constructively cri¬ tiqued pieces of original work written by the participants. Students were given the op¬ tion of arguing if there were any objections. However, with Ms. Goette’s comments, there was the discovery of a creative writing ability which many never felt they held. Af¬ ter hours spent in these work¬ shops, writing skills improved noticeably for the writers. A great deprivation was felt by those who had the oppor¬ tunity to become acquainted with her.

C ontrary to popular beliefs, students with high I.Q. scores to not always wear but¬ toned up oxford shirts and pocket calculator protectors. Another myth that could be shattered by the bright stu¬ dents of Patrick County was boredom. For students in¬ volved in the Gifted and Tal¬ ented program, activities and excitement were abundant. Over the years the G T program has been offered as a pullout program, an after¬ noon program, and an inde¬ pendent study program, as well as a combination of some of the before-mentioned pro¬ grams. Throughout this year, G T students participated in after-school workshops, sum¬ mer workshops, AP classes, math competitions, Odyssey of the Mind (OM) competi¬ tions, and contests. In addi¬ tion, independent study op¬ tions, parade entries, dramatics, the Brains and Brawn competition, and field trip options were offered. Keeping track of all the ac¬ tivities and the seventy stu¬ dents that qualified for the program was a task delegated to the G T sponsors who in¬ cluded Mrs. Brenda Hopkins, Mrs. Maria Oden, and Mrs. Betty Kirkpatrick. Mrs. Kirkpatrick also organized the monthly newsletter, which featured upcoming events. Criteria used to consider students for eligibility in the program consisted of aca¬ demic grades, achievement test scores, I.Q. test scores, and a recommendation checklist. Specific areas of ability such as art, music, or dramatics were also consid¬ ered as areas of talent and eligibility. Although a student’s grades played a vital role in the program, a straight “A” student may not have qual¬ ified for the program. It took a combination of all compo¬ nents to determine eligibility. Once eligibility was deter¬ mined, various workshops were offered. All workshops covered topics chosen by the majority of the G T students through surveys. According to G T coordinator Mrs. Hopkins, “We feel that through this multiple ap¬ proach that our G T program is offering the gifted and tal¬ ented students the enrich¬ ment they need and will use in becoming outstanding stu¬ dents and resources of our country.” Now do I get my cookies?

Gifted and Talented 99 ONE YEAR TRADE Patrick County Hosts Student from West Germany ou’re from where?” I “Frankfurt, West Germany,” Sonja patiently answered. “A whole year in a strange place, away from home. Sounds like a great idea to me!” With hopes of discovering and participating in a new culture, seventeen year old Sonja Wiesmayr arrived in Virginia in mid-August to stay with Lee and Dawn Law- son of Claudville. As part of a student exchange program, Sonja was given many places from which to choose. But be¬ cause she wanted to get out of the “big city” for a while, she While attempting to prepare an¬ other masterpiece, Sonja concen¬ trates on every detail. explained that somewhere in the country would be nice. She enrolled to be part of the senior class and English 11 and 12, Art, US History, government, PE health and driver’s education made up her schedule. After Sonja was settled, she realized how different things were going to be. For exam¬ ple, in West Germany, “the teachers don’t care, but here they are more human,” she replied. Coming from a school where they did not take ex¬ ams, Sonja realized how much easier things were in West Germany, but she did not let that discourage her. “We don’t have as much em¬ phasis on school competi¬ tions. We don’t use cheer¬ leaders either,” answered Sonja. “But we do play some of the same sports.” She ex¬ plained that they didn’t have spectators sitting in the bleachers for games; instead, only athletes attend. Sonja described her favor¬ ite rock groups, U2 and Depeche Mode, and stated that the music here was al¬ most the same as at home. She relayed the differences between American and Ger¬ man dating. In West Germa¬ ny, dating was more casual and they usually went out in groups. Sonja did not under¬ stand why Americans saw one person for so long and why there was such a commitment tied with dating. Her friendly disposition and understanding allowed her to make many friends. “If I could, I’d take everyone back with me.” Sonja stayed several weeks longer than she had first planned and began making arrangements to visit again. Regretting her leave, Sonja said she’d like to come back in a few years and work. Sonja took a taste of Amer¬ ican culture with her, just as she left a small part of Ger¬ many with Patrick County. 100 One Year Exchange ■ “You mean you don’t have cheer¬ leaders!” Martha Prillaman in¬ terviews Sonja for the Archive.

That tough question, along with many more were asked during the SCAEL competi¬ tion at Feildale Collinsville. SCAEL, Academic Excel¬ lence League, was a type of quiz bowl program that chal¬ lenged the bright minds of students. Academic teams I competed in categories of math, science, literature, so¬ cial studies, and in the all¬ round category. Mrs. Elizabeth Warren, lit¬ erature team coach, stated “We had a dedicated group this year. The teams were strongly motivated to succeed and were willing to invest the amount of time necessary to do so.” Mrs. Warren added that the literature team was extremely capable and that the members sincerely liked each other. That feeling clearly showed in their matches, making the litera¬ ture team one of the very bright spots of the SCAEL competitors. Members of the science team had a broad knowledge of chemistry, biology, and physics. Mr. Arnie Kloock said that the science team members had a strong inter¬ est in the subject, and that the matches were an enjoy¬ able experience for all those involved. The math team had three returning seniors along with fine new members. Mrs. Ma¬ ry Jane Taylor stated that she was pleased with the stu¬ dents and she felt their pres¬ ence gave Patrick County hope for a winning team this year and in years to come. She added, “The math team was fortunate this year to have Mr. Chip Graves as one of the coaches. He brings with him a wealth of knowl¬ edge and experience in math¬ ematics and will contribute to the team.” The social studies team was coached by Mrs. Rachel Williamson. Practice for academic com¬ petitions began in the fall and continued during January, February, and March. The teams’ drilled review prob¬ lems and questions using the buzzer as in regular compe¬ tition. The teams competed against schools in Henry County and later in the SCAEL Tournament held at Ferrum College, Ferrum, Va. According to team member Jeramiah Baldwin, “This was my first year.

As she continued the excerpt, Tonya became the elegant lady whose lover had been killed. With each distinct syl¬ lable, Tonya brought life to the poem. Tonya was one of the many talented students who participated in the foren¬ sics competitions. The general purpose of the competition interschool was to motivate participation in and improve the level of fo¬ rensic activities among Vir¬ ginia high school students. Forensic activities were close¬ ly rooted in the instructional programs and were related to curricular offerings through- Six Men and an Elephant. No it’s not a knock-knock joke. Kirk Gray interprets his selection for Boys’ Poetry. out Virginia High schools. The forensic meets held in February consisted of indi¬ vidual contests in boys’ and girls’ extemporaneous speak¬ ing, original oratory, prose in¬ terpretation, and spelling. The purpose of the extem¬ poraneous speaking event was to encourage students to combine clear thinking, good conversational speaking, and interesting presentation to establish a definite thought in respect to a current fact and opinion on a contemporary source. The topics were phrased as questions and were not made known to con¬ testants before the contest. After receiving the topic, con¬ testants had 30 minutes to prepare a speech to stimulate, to convince, to persuade, or to influence the audience. The winners of the extemporane¬ ous speaking category were Janice McAlexander and Randy West. Students participating in the original oratory contest were urged to present speech¬ es intelligently and truthfully, on any worthwhile topic suit¬ able for a public speech. In addition, students were to present the speeches in an in¬ teresting and original man¬ ner, direct and conversational in delivery, and clear in ar¬ rangement. Jenny Foley and Ricky Kreh won the contest with original speeches on Vi¬ olence in music and censor¬ ship. The objectives of the oral prose and poetry interpreta¬ tions included appreciation of the full meaning of the print¬ ed page, and the oral com¬ munication of that meaning to others with apparent spon¬ taneity, directness, simplici¬ ty, and sincerity. For the con¬ tests, students must have had an intelligent comprehension of what they interpreted, as well as an appreciation of the work. Winners of the poetry contests were Mike McColl and Tonya Halsey, with Charisse Hill and Cornelius Brim winning the prose in¬ terpretations. In the final category of spelling, students were dictat¬ ed words and then they wrote the correct spelling. Kara Griffith won the contest with Kristi Hawks as alternate. All first place and second place winners in the contest were eligible to compete in district and regional meets. 104 Forensics .. yellow brocaded gown . .

The records spinning were not the Beastie Boys, Pink Floyd, Bon Jovi, or Hank Williams Jr. Instead, traditional suqare dance music, with fiddles and banjos, prompted couples to “all join hands and circle left.” Of course, this unit was not only for fun, but it fulfilled one of the many objectives in the Standards of Learning for physical education estab¬ lished by the Commonwealth. Usually the dance unit lasted two weeks, but because schools were closed due to in¬ clement weather, these plans were shortened. Still, the tenth graders had one day un¬ der the instruction of Prin¬ cipal James K. Hiatt in ball¬ room dancing. The time spent away from daily exercises gave students time to relax. Physical edu¬ cation instructor Mr. David Clement commented, “The dance unit is a very enjoyable unit to teach. I look forward to teaching it every year.” Head ladies do-si-do.

Sly Richard then con¬ vinces Anne to marry him. With information from Shake¬ speare’s play, Dr. Rex Stephen¬ son and Dr. Scudder enact the lives of Richard III. With his ring Richard bonds a reluctant Anne to a troubled life. She soon regrets her decision. ACT IT OUT Students See A Different Side of Richard III A s approximately 50 stu¬ dents sat entranced, Richard III came to life right before their eyes. With Dr. Rex Stephenson of Ferrum College portraying Prince Richard, “The Glorious Son of York” was presented for the advanced English and drama classes in late January. The objective of the produc¬ tion, other than giving the background of Richard, was to demonstrate the relation¬ ship between the history of literature and reality. One of the purposes of the production was to raise issues of political power, historical truth, and literary method. Also, because of the project’s contrast of personal, histor¬ ical, and literary views of the same person, it involved the audience in questioning of other characters. As the production pro¬ gressed, Richard III, the only dead English monarch since 1066 that denied a royal tomb, was explored. Using in- formation from Shake¬ speare’s plays and other his¬ torical documents, Dr. Stephenson and Dr. Janice Scudder of Wytheville Com¬ munity College enacted pop¬ ular scenes of Richard’s life. Afterward, Dr. Micheal Al¬ exander, historian from Vir¬ ginia Tech, held an open floor for questions and comments on the production. Dr. Jody Brown, Shakespearean of Ferrum College, gave back¬ ground information on the era and the rulers of the time. According to Dr. Brown, “Richard III was a character we could love to hate, similar to the modern antihero.” Ac¬ cording to several students after the production, Richard III was a play they loved to watch.

For many students in¬ volved in extracurricular ac¬ tivities or working part time jobs, study hall was held as a true asset. When a book re¬ port was due in two days and you still didn’t have a book, study hall meant a time to check out the library, and for a U.S. History test sixth pe¬ riod, second period study hall gave an opportunity to mem¬ orize some important dates. Although some students used the time to write letters to friends or to read comic books, other students were found diligently working, math problems or memoriz¬ ing poetry. Not all students do study. They decided to work in the office, clinic, or library. P.E. assistants were needed so a few students spent time in the gym. With much work to be done, SCA officers stayed in the SCA office, and pho¬ tographers for the yearbook took and developed needed pictures during study hall. Mrs. Cleo George worked to achieve organization with study halls whether they were held in the library, cafeteria, or auditorium.

The camp was a four-day concentrated effort on marching and playing. During the approximately ten hours spent in the hot sun each day, the band designed their seasonal drill and worked with different instructors to perfect their performance. The musical selections the band chose included, Off the Line, London Derriere, Rockin Robin, and Funk Strut. The hard work did not end after camp. Practice makes perfect, or according to band director Mr. Bill Pons, “Perfect ( practice makes perfect,” and the band continued practicing nights and week- ! ends. All of this “perfect practice” came in handy in the competitions the March- I ing Cougar Pride Band attended and 1 placed. The band placed first in the Bue- 1 na Vista, VA competition, third in the Lynchburg Classic, and third in the Wales Forest University Tournament of Bands. Drum major Larry Holt was also honored at the Wake Forest competition with a first place award for all classes. The continuing “perfect practice” proved to be no problem for the band. Their commitment to excellence was recognized by other bands in Virginia, and the Patrick County Marching Cou¬ gar Pride Band was selected as one of the two bands in the state to travel and perform in Florida. The band performed at the University of Central Florida and at Watermania. In between the perfor¬ mances, band members still had time for fun and visited Disney World and Epcot Center. To top off the excursion, the band was able to take an ocean cruise. Although the band as a whole was recognized many times throughout the year, several band members were also given individual honors. Jennifer Inman and Mark Helms were accepted to the All District Junior and All District Se¬ nior concert bands respectively. Six members traveled to Orlando, FL over the Christmas holidays and performed in the Citrus Bowl Parade. They in¬ cluded Michelle Reynolds, Larry Holt, Todd N. Joyce, Melissa Hill, Allison Hall, and Dale Brown. For all of the honors and hype, the band still performed every Friday night during the football halftime on the hum¬ ble cougar field. The humble cougar fans showed their pride in the Cougar Pride with their applause and cheers. Accord¬ ing to Mr. Pons, “We performed as much to our potential as we could. The home support gave us a great feeling each Friday night.” Performing the tune “Rockin Robin,” these band mem¬ bers give their all in a competition for the hopes of a first place trophy.

Band 115 INNOVATING ROUTINES They Put the P in Pizzazz “The Flag Corps is the only activity one can participate in regardless of si e and without years of practice” ... Mr. Mark I)onnell, director of Hag corps and majorettes. The Flag Corps began training during the summer with a camp just for the auxiliary band (drum major, majorettes, (lags, and guns) at Ferrum College. The corps returned a week later with the entire band for another lour days of marching and sweating in the sun. When the group first arrived at camp, they were told that they had the wrong equipment. With the efforts of the band boosters and loyal parents, the corps had entire new flags within the week. How¬ ever, with the weight of the new poles, a few (lag corps members were slightly in¬ jured. According to Mr. Donnell, “the (lags can really be dangerous.” After camp, the Flag Corps continued their activity and included innovative ideas into their routines. With the pur¬ chase of new multicolored flags, the corps provided a visual background for the band and also accented the music. Flag colors were changed to go with the music, soft colors for soft music, and brassy colors for the more snappy tunes. The Flag Corps also involved more danc¬ ing into one of the most difficult rou¬ tines the group ever had. A typical practice for the corps began with aerobic activity and a flag drill. Marching with the band followed and then an hour of individual routine prac¬ tice. According to Mr. Donnell, the group would spend two or three days on just one song to perfect the moves. Throughout the year, the Flag Corps logged over two hundred hours in band activity. In addition to the halftime ac¬ The wind can’t get these ladies down!

These performances were chore¬ ographed by captains Karen Boyd, Kris¬ ti Roberts, and Joy Clement. Mr. Donnell stated, “This is the best Flag Corps we’ve ever had. They picked up on information and remembered it well. They made a hard activity look easy. I’m proud of them.” “Tammy is probably the unsung hero of the band. If the flag corps gave two hundred hours, then she gave 250.” When describing majorette Tammy Greer, Mr. Donnell, as well as everyone in the band, could find only nice things to say. All of the routines Greer per¬ formed she did independently. Several members of the band noted her self dis¬ cipline and never-ending drive. Mr. Donnell summed it up when he stated, “She is simply super.” With Todd Joyce and Tim Shough standing in the foreground, Tammy Greer prepares to begin her routine.

Only students that had lettered in a sport or worked as a manager were invited into the club’s membership. In November, several Monogram club members attended a Virginia Tech foot¬ ball game in Blacksburg. Club members sold kitchen accessories for funds that were used to purchase team banners for the gym and to help with new athletes’ letter jackets. However, most of the fundraiser went to help the Monogram Club’s major ser¬ vice project — the Special Olympics. The Special Olympic games were held in the spring, and the responsibilities were shared enthusiastically by everyone in the organization. The Cougar mascot raises everyone’s spirit!

These high achievers were in the club’s membership. Only juniors, seniors, and second semes¬ ter sophomores with a 3.5 grade average were invited to become members. The Betas that were chosen partic¬ ipated in at least three service projects. These projects included serving as guides at the parent-teacher confer¬ ences, maintenance of shrubs around the parking lot steps, helping senior citizens in the community, and of course par¬ ticipation in the ever-popular Krispy Kreme doughnut sales. The money from doughnut sales helped pay for the expenses of the Se¬ nior Beta Convention in Roanoke. In addition the club donated honor cords to graduating Betas, and honor stoles to the seniors with the top ten academic averages. Another organization that honored academic excellence was the Junior Beta Club. Any subfreshman, freshman, first semester sophomores, with 3.5 averages were inducted into Junior Beta mem¬ bership. With approximately 50 mem¬ bers, the Junior Beta prepared young achievers for future activities. Both clubs represented the top of ac¬ ademic society and were active forces throughout the year.

Led by President R. Todd Joyce, the SCA established new ideas and created changes within the school. He was joined by fellow officers Jenny Foley (Vice-President), Susan Lawson (Secretary), Talley Griffith (Treasurer), April Reid (Historian), and Lee Bowling (Reporter) in many endeavors. Summer planning sessions were held in which school calendar was completed, the senior parking lot was established, the Freedom Shrine wall was completely renovated, and a new theme was created: Where paths are chosen and dreams are reached. The paths set by the SCA were pos¬ itive, unified, and school spirited. As with any true student leader, Todd and his team of officers worked towards im¬ proved relationships among high school students, built self images, involved stu¬ dents more in the planning and follow through of projects. This had been stronger and more successful because of an increase in Inter-Club Council meet¬ ings; secondly, committees were formed and worked on such major projects as an anti-drug and alcohol chapter, an out¬ side recreational leisure area for stu¬ dents, and the reestablishment of the Youth Council. These new projects along with the an¬ nual dances, club meetings, assemblies, Distinguished Patrick Countian Award, Senior Honors Banquet, fundraisers and field trips kept the school year filled with excitement, pressures, smiles, and tears. But it was all worth it. When students worked together and achievements had been made, the feeling of satisfaction was abundant. Talent! Betsy Layman, ICC member, has it.

PLANNING AHEAD Preparation for the Future For those future engineers, astro¬ nauts, and archeologists, the Science Club offered information in all fields of science. Each month club members were introduced to the latest advancements in the science world. As one club member remarked, “It’s really exciting finding out what’s out there.” In March, the Science Club sponsored the Patrick County Science Fair, a new event for both school and county. The club members traveled to the Moorehead Planetarium at Chapel Hill, NC in April. According to several mem¬ bers, the trip was both fun and inter¬ esting. The Health Careers Club was a small organization, but members helped the community throughout the year. The 16-member club sponsored the annual bloodmobile drive in October and helped the county Red Cross chapter to collect 37 pints of blood. The club also gave help to needy families during the Christmas season. After selling candy for a fun¬ draising project, Health Careers mem¬ bers traveled to Baptist Hospital in Win¬ ston Salem. According to club president, “The club gave members a sense of ac¬ complishment and pride.” Without donations, blood is very scarce.

Alice Barnard jokes with these other Latin-French club members after business has been finished in this club meeting. Foreign Language Clubs See ft All Que Pasa? For the foreign language clubs a lot was happening. Through field trips and dinners, the Spanish Club and Latin French Club were able to expe¬ rience more than grammar and vocab¬ ulary. The authentic meals and shows gave the members a true sense of the cultures. The Latin French Club members gave a faculty luncheon in November that gave the teachers who attended a taste of Ancient Rome and France. Members also organized a bake sale during the Christmas parade. The cold wind did not stop those dedicated members from bringing out those cookies and brownies for raising funds. According to secretary Susan Turman, “My hands almost turned blue, but I would probably do it again for the club.” When the snow and ice were over, club members participated in the Surry For¬ eign Language Festival at Surry Com¬ munity College near Mt. Airy, NC, and attended a play in Roanoke, VA. Ac¬ cording to Latin French club reporter Kristi Young, “This year was pretty good. I wish we could have had more participation, but those who were in¬ volved really did their best.” “I love Spanish. I love the language, the culture, and I love the club,” says Jennifer Moran, Spanish Club presi¬ dent. For those Spanish students, who can speak only in Espanol during class, the Spanish Club provided the chance to catch up on the culture of the country. Spanish Club members traveled to Sa¬ lem College in Salem, VA and saw the Spanish dance “bon Quijote y La Tuna.” The club was also active during the Christmas season. In addition to col¬ lecting money for the needy, club mem¬ bers decorated the Christmas tree at the Reynolds and performed as clowns in the Christmas parade. Both of the foreign language clubs provided its members the chance to ex¬ perience international bits of life.

USING TALENTS Art Club and Cougar Review Provide Creative Expression Whether a student’s talent was in Journalism or visual art, he could have found a creative outlet in the Art Club and Cougar Review. For those students who wished to ex¬ pand their understanding of arts, the Art Club provided freedom of expression. The artistic members displayed their works in the halls throughout the year. Members sold Valentines for their mon¬ ey-making project and also attended a calligraphy workshop. Another organization that allowed students to express their creativity for everyone to see was the Cougar Review. The school newspaper included several innovative ideas in the publication, in¬ cluding a Graffiti page, where students wrote their own special messages. Unlike other organizations, the Cou¬ gar Review was not a club and did not have a money-making project. The staff raised funds through advertising sales and paper sales. The staff of only nine students with one advisor worked throughout the year to publish five is¬ sues, making the year busy and pro¬ ductive.

Mem¬ bers of the club were required to have taken at least one business course. FBLA membership included approxi¬ mately eighty-five students, making the club one of the largest in the school. FBLA activities started early in the fall with a Virginia Tech Fall Regional Workshop in September. Twenty-nine members and two advisors attended the workshop and enjoyed the Va. Tech- Syracuse football game afterwards. In October, the club began selling items from Pennington Distributors and began the Outstanding Business Student project. Later in the season, FBLA members prepared Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets for needy families in the community. The club’s activities cont inued in Feb¬ ruary and March with Vocational Ed¬ ucation Week participation, a fashion show, and Project ASK. Project ASK joined both the school and community for the promotion of t he Association of Childhood Cancer. In April, several club members at t end¬ ed the Spring Regional Competition in Roanoke, and participated in state com¬ petitions for business education. The year proved to be interesting and busy for the FBLA chapter. According to sponsor, Mrs. Judy Pollard, “FBLA is the best club because of the dedicat ion of the officers and members.” I I Okay, okay. You mean I have to sell twelve more items!

FFA and FHA Prepare for Tomorrow. Throughout the year, the Future Farmers of America and Future Home¬ makers of America were active club forc¬ es. The FHA promoted better living and was organized of students with the same future interests. The club members sold candles in October and November for a fundraising project. The club also dec¬ orated the Christmas tree that was dis¬ played at the Christmas dance in De¬ cember. In the cold winter of February, club members delivered favors to the nursing home occupants in Stuart. With the be¬ ginning of spring, the club held its an¬ nual Mother-Daughter banquet in April and traveled to Kings Dominion amuse¬ ment park near Richmond, VA. Accord¬ ing to FHA president Kelly Handy, “All of the members had a great time, and the club gave us a chance to just be our¬ selves.” Along the same lines, the FFA helped promote leadership, sportsmanship, and patriotism. Members involved with the club were interested in agricultural skills and developing futures in the agricul¬ tural field. Club members participated in eight projects including federation contests in forestry, tractor driving, leadership, creed speaking, parliamentary proce¬ dure, public and extemporaneous speak¬ ing, and dairy judging. The winner of the tractor driving contest was Kirk George, and the forestry team consisted of Eddie Harris, Bradley Slate, Brian Worley, W. G. Easter, Kirk George, and David Dod¬ son. For their fundraising project, FFA members once again sold fruit cakes. Later on club members participated in the FFA parent-child banquet, FFA con¬ vention and FFA camp. FFA vice- president Eddie Harris said, “The FFA gave me the information I needed about agriculture, and it taught me about lead¬ ership.” FRONT ROW: Lori Hughs, Teresa Lawson, Connie Belcher, Amy Griffith, Melissa Mar¬ tin, Tammy Chaney, Angie Woodward, and Kelly Handy.

VICA club was subdivided into Auto Mechanics, Cosmetology, Building Trades and Electronics which meet sep¬ arately throughout the year, while the whole group meets about three times a year. The auto mechanics section provided the service of aiding motorists on school grounds during school hours. Through¬ out the school year, auto shop workers could be seen with their jumper cables and t ire jacks helping those in need. The electronics division of VICA pro¬ vided stage crew services for various community groups throughout the year. Electronics also participated in the ed¬ ucational exhibit at the PC Fair and the District III, VICA Fall Rally and Skills Competition. Cosmetology VICA worked with Spe¬ cial Educat ion class from t he high school and Stuart Elementary on their hygiene and appearance. Cosmetology VICA members also participated in a social service project to help underprivileged persons in the community feel better about themselves. Building Trades VICA Participated in many activities in the community. They included contracting a single family dwelling on Route 682 near Wayside Park. They also built two ticket booths for the Rotary Club. The DECA club was for the students who had taken Distributive Education courses. One of their community service projects was collect ing food and clot hing for the needy people. The club members also attended an officer training con¬ ference and the fall DECA rally, and attended the DECA District Competi¬ tion and the DECA State Leadership Contest.

Involvement in this organization gives special education students a chance to become more involved with school and community activities. In the fall, club members traveled to Old Salem, NC, and later in the spring to the Natural Science Center in Winston Salem. The club sold flower bulbs to raise funds and planned to donate a bench for the upcoming non-smoking area. Another organization that planned to donate money to the non-smoking area was the Library Club. Members of the club help to keep everything in the li¬ brary orderly. Without their help, a great loss in the library would be felt, accord¬ ing to many faculty members. The Library Club attended A T Uni¬ versity in North Carolina because many members were interested in the college. The club also had a productive candy sale, obtaining funds needed for service projects. The club promoted the reading of all literature, and to help increase interest in reading, members drew posters to rep¬ resent National Reading Month.

New Horizons 137 BEING THE FIRST We Bring New Heights to the phrase NO PROBLEM “Where is the cropper?” Martha asked. “Just what is a cropper?” Marla coun¬ teracted. “Ginny, you can’t put the story in this amount of space. There aren’t enough picas,” Ms. Dillard said. “Picas? Charisse, what are picas?” Ginny wondered. “Look, you can put 24 picas in four inches,” Charisse patiently explained. “Look, two more pages,” Amy chimed. “Uh, Ms. Dillard; you know that roll of film on the home game, uh, well, Jay lost it,” Paul said as he hid. “I didn’t, Ms. Dillard. You see the way Paul was showing me, and I didn’t un¬ derstand, and I still don’t,” Jay babbled. “Hey Paul, what about my cheerlead¬ ing pictures,” Kim piped in. “Uh well.” “Hey people, remember we’ve got 70 pages due in seven days,” Ms. Dillard announced. “No problem!” everyone shouted. For the entirely new yearbook staff, the “No Problem” theme became a goal. The staff began early in the summer selling advertising space to local busi¬ nesses and raised over $3,000, the largest ad sale ever for the ARCHIVE. Martha Prillaman alone sold over $900, forcing the staff to add extra space in the year¬ book. The staff decided not to designate anyone as chief editor. That way the tremendous load of the book would not fall on one person’s shoulders. Everyone took a huge part in the development of the ARCHIVE. This was a tremendous task for the staff, which consisted of eight members, two of whom were pho¬ tographers. “I thought the annual staff was going to be a study hall. But I found out fast it’s a lot of hard work. People just don’t seem to realize how much work goes into the ARCHIVE,” said Kim Reynolds. With staff working after school and on weekends, the ARCHIVE proceeded to come together. Their commitment to seeing the book published on time car¬ ried the staff members through the ar¬ guments, lost copy, and the cramped fin¬ gers from typing. When the staff finally saw that cover with the awesome color contrasts, they all agreed that the work was definitely worth it and was after all no problem. “We’re a first,” says Marla Cassady, “and we know it.” “What do you mean we still need ten pages!” Th e tension of winter deadlines shows clear¬ ly in the faces of Martha Prillaman, Amy Mitchell, Jay Young, Paul Vivier, and Charisse Hill. 138 Annual Staff No Problem.

Annual Staff 139 Sports 140 Sports Divider So we lost a game or two. The season wasn’t over and there was always next year with new budding talent to supplement the experience. Anyway, each and every game was a teaching experience for the coaches and a learning ex¬ perience for the players. No problem. So the track team lost a meet. Team totals were based on the sum of individual perfor¬ mances, so there were winners all along. It was one of our athletes who claimed the state high jump record and team members traveled as far as New York to compete. No problem. Maybe the wrestling and golf matches didn’t all go as planned, but the time spent on the course and on the mats in competition provided experiences not obtained through practice. No problem. Awesome. As Tracy Reynolds re¬ leases the ball, the Carver play¬ ers anticipate an additional two points on the scoreboard that will decide the game. The Fosbury Flop.

I Sports Divider 141 Enthusiasm, Improvement, and great accomplishment were Tracked to Cougar Pride With Coach Nelson McConnell and his assistant coach Melinda Hawks, the boys’ and girls’ track teams were able to accomplish many things. “There was a better number of previously experienced competitors, and a majority of the team showed a lot of enthusiasm and inter¬ est,” said Coach McConnell. This season, six athletes advanced to state competitions in Harrisonburg, Vir¬ ginia, and two advanced to the AAU Junior Olympics that were held in New York. This was the largest number of students to ever go to a state meet. Mike Wimbush and Jimmy Cockram were the only two boys to attend. Cockram set a new state record in the high jump. This record added to the other seven records that were set by Cougar athletes during the regular season. Tara Massie, Diana Turner, Margaret Mitchell, and Alice Barnard were the four girls who went to the state meet. Mitchell placed seventh in the interme¬ diate hurdles, while Barnard was the on¬ ly Cougar ninth grader to compete. Tara Massie placed sixth in the high jump at state, and advanced to the AAU Junior Olympics along with Diana Turner. “Tara and Diana were the only two who entered the national; this was a great honor for Patrick County,” explained Coach McConnell. Although the remainder of the track team did not advance to state, “they showed good evidence of improvement and interest in the program,” said coach McConnell. Most team members ex¬ ceeded their goals and continued to work toward new ones. A yell for victory is given as Kirk Gray cross¬ es the finish line after a very close race that gave the boys’ track team points to win.

The Lady Cougars finished in second place in reg¬ ular season play. They won the Pied¬ mont District Championship after they defeated Tunstall for the first time in the entire season, since Tunstall had de¬ feated the Cougars twice. “The girls’ attitudes were super, and they got everthing together and they started producing as a team,” explained coach Bill Pons. He also said the team was better because more people were on it, and they gave a better view to how people looked at them. The lady cougars also had very strong leadership. Mr. Pons as head coach and Mrs. Sandy Tobler as his assistant. Still the team was lead by Kathy Hiatt, San¬ dra Woods, and Amy Burnett who all shared the leadership role of captain. Through it all the team held together and became champions which was a great honor for Patrick County. “A team has to work together to accomplish a goal this big and in this case they did,” coach Pons expresses, “Our people han¬ dled themselves in all sports, not just girls’ softball, as a class act. They rep¬ resent the school well, by dressing up and keeping the best attitudes, and this makes a good impression on Patrick County.” FRONT ROW: Donna Joyce, Sara Harn- sberger, Anita Vipperman, Sandra Woods, Amy Burnette, Cherly Bingman, Melissa Hill, and Lori Rorrer.

Softball It’s Not Whether You Win or Lose, What Counts is FIELD SPIRIT Little did the varsity baseball players know that all their practice and ded¬ ication would give them an overall re¬ cord of 10-9-1 and a strong chance at the Piedmont District Tournament cham¬ pionship. The season opener with Car- roll County led to a tie with the score 2- 2. The following game with Drewry Ma¬ son, one of the Cougar’s toughest op¬ ponents, gave Patrick County a chance to put their experience to work. The diamond was left with the scoreboard indicating an 8-14 Drewry Mason vic¬ tory. The Cougars did not let this upset their spirits as they triumphed in the following games. With several wins and losses behind them, mid-season brought the varsity players up against Laurel Park at the Cougar playing field.

After condition¬ ing throughout the winter, the players were ready for any opponents brought up against them. Any loss did not bother the determined players, for tight defense was played along with good defense. The season not only met team goals, but individual ambitions were achieved. A total of eight home runs brought Cou¬ gar spirit onto the field. The team bat¬ ting average was .337 with best indi¬ vidual averages being: John Hopkins — .444, Doug Perry — .400, Ronnie Wil¬ liams — .412, and James Smith — .381. The team was led by sophomore stand outs Brian Turman, Ronnie Williams, Jason Keesee, Doug Perry, and J. L. Griffith. An unforgettable year in J.V. baseball led the Cougars to a chance at winning the district title, but three one-run losses ended their chances. Coach E. G.

With much determination, the tennis team spent hour after hour practicing different plays and moves. Their hard work, willpower and, of course, their skill, took them down the road to suc¬ cess. With a 6-1 record, a second place win in Districts, the team advanced to the Regional Semifinals. The team was victorious over Brook- ville in the semi-finals and moved on¬ ward to the finals. The team put forth their best, gave it their all, and although the team did not win Regionals, two individual team members reached heights of excellence. The team of Lee Kahn and Randy West won the regional doubles match and Kahn went on to capture the re¬ gional singles title.

Mr. Gerald Culler, the team coach said, “The team improved greatly, especially toward the end of the season.” The members included J. L. Griffith, John Hopkins, Chris Hopkins, Kevin Hall, Daren Gunter, Chris Gunter, Eric Williams, and Jonathan Vaughn. Ac¬ cording to Mr. Culler, two of the team members made great individual accom¬ plishments. John Hopkins finished ninth in the district tournament. Both John and Chris went to the regionals and shot 87 and 90, respectively. Although golf is not often discussed as much as the other sports, these young golfers gave Patrick County a reason to be proud. When golf season rolls around the members who plan to participate will also be “teed off’ for a season that is filled with victories.

During the summer, Bert Stanley spends many hours practicing for the season ahead. Scrimmage, the best preparation for the game. Cougars pose a challenge for the op¬ posing team at this pre-season scrimmage. 154 Varsity Football II While pools were open, the football team was HARD AT WORK The 1987 varsity football season did not start with the first game. Instead, it began late in the winter of 1986 when as many as 40 students attended a con¬ ditioning program consisting of weight¬ lifting and running. Throughout the spring, candy bars were sold to allow 30 players to attend football camp at Ap¬ palachian State University. In early August, when pools were open and various other activities were going on, the football team was hard at work practicing five hours a day. After open¬ ing the season with a scrimmage at Lex¬ ington, players realized that there was a tough season ahead. The following scrimmage against Alleghany brought life to the Cougars. As school began, the team played North Stokes and won the close game. A poor first half against Carroll County psyched the Cougars up and they began to show their pride as they dominated the second half and took the victory. Next came the game many had been waiting for — Martinsville. Coach Rich¬ ard Savedge commented, “The game seemed closer, than the final score in¬ dicated. A lot of fears were overcome. We could score and move the ball if we wanted to.” Mid-way through the season, Patrick County faced Tunstall on the field at the Cougar homecoming. The team played with determination, but Tunstall took the victory. The players traveled to Drewry Mason and held the Spartans to score in the second half. The end-of-season came and with it, a victory. During the second to last game, against Stoneville, the offensive team rushed for over 350 yards and passed for 90 more. Five pass interceptions and re¬ covered fumbles held Stoneville, and Patrick County walked away with the 24-13 victory. The Cougars were represented by three All-Piedmont District players: Bobby Bird (defensive end), Ricky Kreh (offensive tackle), and Bert Stanley (defensive back). Varsity Football 155 JV Football Players are BRINGING BACK THE The Junior Varsity Football team brought back the fun of football. Although the team did not win any games, they persevered and played for fun. “The team goal was to play good, hard football and bring back some respect to the program that had been lost over the years,” explained Coach Mark Gammons. This was the first year that Gammons coached football in Patrick County, and he really showed interest. He was assisted by Mr. Bob Burnette (Special Teams Coach), and Mr. Craig Smythers (Defense Coach). There were 15 players on the team. Coach Gammons expressed his feeling about the small number of players when he said, “With the number of players we had, each game was a team effort. It’s not easy to play 32 minutes of football with 15 players. The individuals who participated should be recognized for this great accom¬ plishment.” The team leaders were captains Keith FUN Gray and Derrick Williams. “All of the players were dedicated and hardworking, and improved with each game. The only thing that was needed was more athletes,” coach Gammons said. “For the football program to get better, we, as a school, need the involvement of more athletes. With a school of our size, we should have 30 to 40 players at the J.V. level. Our players will continue to have difficulties if we only have 15 players each year,” Gammons add¬ ed. Even though the team did not win, the players had fun participating. In his clos¬ ing remarks, Coach Gammons summa¬ rized, “I would like to thank the J.V. play¬ ers for the efforts they made, and I also would like to thank the cheerleaders. I know it’s not easy to cheer for a team that loses each game. With hard work and de¬ termination, we hope to improve to seven wins, with zero losses for the next season.” RECORD PC 0 Laurel Park 18 PC 0 Drewey Mason 36 PC 0 Martinsville 36 PC 0 Bassett 14 PC 0 Franklin Co. 16 PC 0 Drewey Mason 24 PC 8 Carroll Co. 28 “When are we going to play?,” ask the play¬ ers as they wait for Coach Mark Gammons to give them instructions for the game.

Basketball teams exploded this year with a number of victories. Coach David Clement ex¬ plained, “Members of the teams had the same goal that they wanted to accom¬ plish this year; that goal was to win the Piedmont District Championship and then play in regional competition.” The girls were very excited and “the young ladies worked very hard in preparing for each contest.” The varsity girls who finished with eight wins and fourteen losses, and fourth in the Piedmont District last year, finished this season with eleven wins and eight losses. “We finished 7 wins — 3 losses in the regular season in 2nd place in the Piedmont District,” said coach Clement proudly. The team consisted of 11 players; one freshman, four sophomores, two juniors, and four seniors. “Tiacy Reynolds and Kathy Hiatt had a very good senior year,” explained coach Clement. Tracy and Kathy were named to the Piedmont All-District Team. Tracy was named to the All-Regional Team for the second year, and Kathy received Honorable Mention for the All-Regional Team. In addition to the players who met goals, Coach Clement received Co- Coach of the year in the Piedmont Dis¬ trict. This leadership led the girls to a second place finish in the regular season. According to Coach Clement, the girls’ basketball program (Varsity and J.V.), had a very successful year. “That was due to the time and hard work all the ladies put into improving their game. The coaches on my staff, Mrs. Lisa As- trop and Mr. E. G. Bradshaw, deserve a lot of the credit for all the work they did for the total improvement of the pro¬ gram,” said coach Clement. “Put your hands up, guard them!” is exactly what Susan Turman and Julie Harris do while guarding their opponent as she tries to score.

Varsity Girl’s Basketball 159 ' A Mid-Season Spurt Allows the JV Girls to BOUNCE BACK For the second year in a row, the Jun¬ ior Varsity Girls’ Basketball team ac¬ complished the number one spot in the Piedmont District. The J.V. girl’s season ended with a 10-4 overall, and a 5-1 in the district. The girls in the beginning were losing, then a spree hit them and they “bounced” back. Kathy Penn, point guard for the team had an excellent sea¬ son. She scored most of the team’s points along with Penny Marshall, Jan¬ ice McAlexander, and Montia Hairston. All of the team members were outstand¬ ing, but Kathy Penn received Player Of The Week, and moved up to the varsity squad at the end of the season. The girls were led by Lisa Astrop, who did an excellent job in coaching these young ladies. She is a strong part of the reason the J.V. girl’s season was so suc¬ cessful.

Girl’s Basketball 161 Varsity Athletes Are Just “TOO TUFF” For the first time in a long time the boys’ varsity basketball team beat the Martinsville Bulldogs and held on the first place in the district. “The team had continued with that success and had gone even farther. Their overall record was 13-5 and they won the Surry Central Holiday Tournament in Dobson, NC,” explained Coach Grandy Biggs. The team consisted of four seniors including Jimmy Cockram, Freddy Lee, Robin Penn, and Bert Stanley. There were also seven juniors. The Team cap¬ tain was Jimmy Cockram, and the co¬ captain was Freddy Lee. The head coach was Grandy Biggs, and the assistant coaches were: Mark Redden, Craig Smythers, Bob Burnette, and Jim Saw¬ yers. “All of these coaches assisted the varsity program during games, as well as scouting our opponent,” explained Coach Biggs. The team made many accomplish¬ ments this past year. “We had a lot of great times, but the biggest was the 100- 82 win over Martinsville. Jimmy Cockram had a personal best of 34 points in that game, as well as Brian Turman with 18 points. Mike Hall set a school record by scoring 46 points against Bassett High School. Also we were rated in the Roanoke Times News¬ paper. We have also been rated as high as sixth place in Timesland. This was a first for Patrick County,” said Coach Biggs. All of the players made the team a great success, but Jimmy Cockram, Freddy Lee, Mike Hall, Brad Clontz, Robin Penn, and Brian Turman showed exactly how “tough” they could be. “Jimmy Cockram, who was averaging 20.3 points a game, was tremendous. Jimmy is a leader by example. Mike Hall was great, he averaged 25.4 points a game. Mike really took a physical beat¬ ing in every game we played. Freddy Lee was a big bonus; his quickness along with his rebounding and his much im¬ proved shot added tremendously. The play of Brad Clontz was great, his floor leadership at guard improved over last year. Robin Penn added so much with his quickness and enthusiasm of the game. Brian Turman was, by far, the most improved player on the team. The remainder of the team and their love for the game was great. I love coaching and I loved the entire team,” exp ressed Coach Biggs.

The boys’ junior varsity basketball program made a tremendous improve¬ ment this year. With Coach Steve Hen¬ derson and Assistant Coach Bob Burnette, the team was able to have an 11-5 seasonal record which improved the 1-19 record from last year. “This was the first winning record for JV’s in a long time. We won several district games al¬ so,” explained Coach Henderson. The team consisted of ten players, in¬ cluding Mark Hiatt, John Hopkins, Joe Soyers, Ricky Vernon, Dwayne Wood, Eric Thomas, Eric Williams, Tyrone Wooley, Blake Shepard, and Greg Meade. “They put forth a tremendous effort and it really paid off,” said Coach Henderson. The junior varsity will obviously be “moving on up” in the future. According to Coach Henderson, “It was a joy to work with such a good group of young men. Their dedication and hard work turned them into winners on and off the court.” “Take the time to do it right,” says John Hopkins to Tyrone Wooley as he shoots his foul shots. J.V. Boys’ Basketball I 165 ■ I Volleyball Had Girls SPIKED FORA CHANGE “Curious, apprehensive, yet excited,” is how Coach Sandy Tobler described the first year girls’ volleyball team. Coach Tobler along with Assistant Coach Maria Oden were able to choose 13 girls to participate in the new pro¬ gram. “We had over 30 girls to show up for orientation and in the summer we had four to go to camp,” explained Coach Tobler. The team consisted of seven seniors; two of the seniors, Betsy Layman and Amanda Joyce served as captains. There were also two eleventh graders, three tenth graders, and one freshman, Sabrina Reynolds. Before the season was half over the girls’ volleyball team ranged 3-2 in the Piedmont District and 6-3 overall. “Being our first year, our record was very good. Hopefully we will continue to be as successful as we progress in the years to come,” expressed Coach Tobler. “We’re already in the lead,” says Coach Oden to Coach Tobler while they and the rest of the team awaits the outcome of the game. “Jump? That’s what I’m doing,” says Kathy Hiatt as she prepares for the oncoming volleyball. “I got this spike!” says Leigh Boyd as she plays to win along with her teammates.

Wrestlers End IJp With A PERFECT MATCH “Dedication, determination, and hard work summed up the Wrestling team which gave a record that was the best in the history of the school,” expressed Coach Mark Gammons. The team finished in the third place for a district finish with eight wins and three losses. Coach Gammons, along with assistant Coach Steve Henderson and the three senior captains, Chris Handy, Tony Handy, and Robbie Wil¬ liams led the team to a successful season. “The athletes wanted to build a very strong program, and the team goal was to improve with every match,” explained Coach Gammons. The team goal was accomplished because nine of the wres¬ tlers were regional qualifiers. They in¬ cluded Kevin Lawson, Sam Jackson, Chris Handy, Tony Handy, Randy Knight, Robbie Williams, Mike Fain, Adam Martin, and Randy West. The team will have only four seniors next year. Coach Gammons said, “My first year as head coach was an enjoyable one. Patrick County has some good talent in the wrestling program and hopefully with a litle work, the team and indi¬ viduals will get better. Within a few years we will contend for the district championship.” Wrestling 169 Sara Harnsberger and Caroline Pack show off their cheerleading skills by performing a stunt. They were J.V. Cheerleaders. “I don’t know what to do with these things!”, says Connie Bird while practicing varsity football cheerleading.

The Boys’ Basketball Cheerleaders include: To¬ ry Hylton, Tracy Boyd, Tina Bowman, Jennifer Moran, Wendy Law, Allison Belton, Dee Wood, Monica Belcher, and Mascot Kim Gunter. 170 Cheerleaders “I must be an angel!”, says Tory Hylton as Jennifer Moran supports her for the “Angel,” a cheerleading stunt. Power and Spirit is What KEEPS THEM 0 THEIR FEET “We got spirit, yes we do ...!”, “C-0- U-G-A-R-S ...!” These were just some of the shouts of the almighty cheer¬ leaders. There were six squads of cheer¬ leaders. The varsity football cheerleaders, sponsored by Mrs. Lisa Martin, con¬ sisted of 11 cheerleaders and the Cougar Mascot, Jennifer Moran. “The cheer¬ leaders worked very hard to support the football team. They served breakfast to the players on home game days and sold over 2,000 spirit ribbons,” explained Mrs. Martin. The varsity football cheerleaders also traveled to Virginia Tech to cheer at the Tech-Syracuse game. Also, the squad re¬ ceived second place honors at cheer camp at Radford. The varsity girls’ basketball cheer¬ leaders, sponsored by Mrs. Phyllis Kodenski, consisted of eight cheer¬ leaders and the mascot, Tangie Setliff. “The heat in some of the gyms was al¬ most unbearable; it was so hot. As the season progressed the problem was al¬ leviated. Cheerleading for a winning team was what kept the girls going,” said Mrs. Kodenski. Mrs. Kodenski also sponsored the boys’ basketball cheerleaders. The squad consisted of eight cheerleaders and the Mascot, Kim Gunter. “The girls were really interested in the program. For many of them it was their second time cheering,” explained Mrs. Kodenski. The junior varsity cheerleaders are important to Patrick County because they support the upcoming athletes. There were three junior varsity squads, J.V. girls’ basketball, J.V. football, and J.V. boys’ basketball. Each squad con¬ sisted of ten cheerleaders, and the Mas¬ cot for the winter squad, Natalie Hall. “Their dedication to cheering is very great, they spend a lot of time learning all the new cheers,” expressed Mrs. Rendy Williams, the sponsor for all the J.V. squads. “This was the first year for three squads. It has been a lot of hard work, but it does allow for more girls to be able to participate. Hopefully these girls will be better prepared for the var¬ sity program,” explained Mrs. Williams. “All cheerleaders who participated supported their teams. Their spirit re¬ ally helped the players and kept them going,” explained many of the athletes on the teams. The Football Cheerleaders include: Kara Griffith, Mary Beth Martin, Connie Bird, Wendy Law, Kim Gunter, Melanie Heath, Monica Belcher, Cindy Crissman, Charisse Hill, Angie Vaughn.

Local and Long Distance Hauling Ads 205 After All, It Was NO PROBLEM Everyone had problems, right? For some, problems consisted of meeting the challenges of AP tests and Shakespearan plays. But, students overcame those ob¬ stacles, and many became active in fo¬ rensic and academic competitions, put¬ ting unused brain cells to work. For others, the dreams of athletic greatness clashed with the reality of “no pain, no gain.” However, athletes gained and gained until the Cougar name was one to be reckoned with. Although many problems seemed triv¬ The ten yards left posed NO PROBLEM for Bert Stanley as he runs the ball down the field for a touchdown. Make-up tests are one of the many problems for students who are absent from class. Tony Pack tries to remember the facts he learned weeks ago. ial, students faced tragedy when senior James Hamm was killed in a car ac¬ cident. Fellow schoolmates chose not to remain in the sadness of his death though. Instead, they remembered the student as a friend and classmate who contributed to the strength and char¬ acter of the class. Students weren’t the only problem- facers. For one entire week teachers and faculty became nervous as a visiting committee reviewed the curriculum, Southern Association for Accreditation. After the review and committee meet¬ ings were over, the high level of tension lessened. Although possible problems lurked in every corner, the words “no problem” echoed in the halls. For both students and faculty the phrase remained long and after the halls were left empty. No problem. After the induction ceremony for new Senior Beta Club members, Dean Utt, Regina Ep¬ person, Tal Swails, and Kirk Gray find NO PROBLEM with accepting the honor. 206 Closing “Let me think.” Mrs. Mary Jane Taylor searches her mind for the correct answer to Mrs. Jane Akers’ question. Almost never wrong, Mrs. Taylor delivers the good with NO PROBLEM at all. “They’re here!” Mr. Nelson Moore jokingly refers to the visiting committee as alien vis¬ itors. “That was really smart,” says Wayne Dries to fellow game-watchers Jennifer Spencer and Michelle Vogi. “That steal sure wasn’t a problem for the other team.” Closing 207 II “It looks easy — putting together a yearbook while maintaining grades in other classes that are required instead of elective. It looks easy. It’s not. Organ¬ ized chaos would be more like it with an emphasis on ‘organized’ and ‘chaos.’ But it gets done; it’s an ‘annual’ event and the only way it gets done is through ded¬ ication, perseverance, long hours and a compulsion toward perfection. There are no compromises in publications be¬ cause what is submitted to the printer is typeset as a tangible piece of this school’s history. No problem.” Paul Vivier Autographs —
