TAYLOR MEMORIAL LIBRARY 4205 Victoria Boulevard Hampton, Va. 23669 Another Year in School O n the first day of school, whether we were running around going crazy, or just sitting quietly and talking with our friends, we were already starting to put US back in Phoebus! Phoebus isn’t just any school—it’s our school, and we make things happen. We are a school that gets involved. We do certain things that all schools do, like the Blood Drive, but we also do things that nobody else has thought of. We are unique, a breed apart, and we show it in the things we do. For example, Stand Up for America, which is an annual march on Flag Day to show our patriotism. A school is only a building until you put people in it, but then it becomes something much more. Our school is spe¬ cial and we know it. That’s why we’re putting US back in Phoebus! —Suzanne Willis— veiling Section We’re Putting Back in Phoeb Senior Scott Robert and junior Stephanie Gray provide entertainment at the induction ceremo¬ ny for the National Honor Society held in the auditorium May 23, 1983. The Phoebus High School students show their loyalty for their country as they participated in the “Stand up for America” festivities held May 2, 1983 at tne National cemetery on County Street. On April 22, 1983, Phoebus High School spon¬ sored a Blood Drive. Our original goal was to donate 250 pts. of blood, but we fell short by one pint. Shown here, senior Kenny Snyder gives his expression towards the procedure of donating blood. 3 Opening Section Seniors Stacy Schmidtman, Jeanne Glabus, Laura Wingate and Lisa Reamer admire some paintings at the Bay Days festivities. Bay Days was held Sep¬ tember 16-17 in downtown Hampton. Color guard members Isaac Perry and Joe Weis stand at attention during the ceremonies honoring the veterans of foreign wars. The parade ended at the National Cenetery on County Street in Phoebus. The commencement exercises for the Class of ’83 were held Tuesday June 14 at 2 o’clock in the Coliseum. Here, the seniors move their tassels which means they are official graduates of Phoebus. The football team runs on the field for the opening game with arch rival Kecoughtan. Unfortunately, the Warriors prevail ed 14-7. 4 Opening Section We’re Putting Back in Phoeb A Blue and Gold Celebration D o you know what we’ve got at Phoebus? We’ve got spirit! Lots of spirit — and it shows in everything we do. Where else do you know that peo¬ ple dye their hair in the school colors for Spirit Week? Also, look at our football team. So maybe we don’t have the best team in the district, but our guys get out there and give it their best shot. It takes more spirit and determination for a team to keep trying when they are not doing so well than when they are always winning. And what about our cheer¬ leaders? They always sound as if t hey really believe that we are the best school around. Spirit is important to a school, and we’ve got lots of it. It’s just another way that we’re putting US back in Phoebus. —Suzanne Willis— 5 Opening Section Floyd Showalter leads the Phoebus High School football fans in singing the National Anthem at the Kecoughtan game. Floyd, a senior was select¬ ed to the 1982-83 Honors Chorus which was held in Roanoke, December 1-3, 1983. Keyette officers Mary Jo Dorsey, Helen Sadler, and Suzanne Willis help prepare refreshments for teachers, students, and parents at the awards night assembly held in the theater May 19, 1983. Cadet Commander Joe Parker, Ricky Whyte, Paul Fequiere and Rod Moore, lead the Phoebus High School Marine Junior ROTC marching unit dur¬ ing the Phoebus Day parade. Later that day Phoe¬ bus was honored to be awarded best civilian marching unit. 6 Opening Section We’re Putting Back in Phoeb We Are Not Just a School W hat is a school? A school is just a building—until you bring in the people. People give a school its character—its uniqueness. However you have to get the people involved in the school for them to contribute to its character. One of the ways that Phoebus goes about trying to ac¬ complish this is by having a “Back to School Night”. On this night various classes and clubs make displays to show their activities and accomplishments. This is done with the hope of showing new students what is available and also to show the parents what their kids do. By getting the parents involved we bring more people into Phoebus. It’s just another of the many ways in which we’re putting US and the community back in Phoebus. —Suzanne Willis— Chris Malloy, a member of the Marine Corps Ju¬ nior ROTC shows parents to their child’s classes during the Back to School Night held September 27. Back to School Night was an effort by the administration to get more parents involved in school activities. It proved successful because 50% of the parents came. The Color Guard kicks off the Stand Up for America parade held May 2, 1983. They are fol¬ lowed by teachers, majorettes, the flag corps, the band and the remainder of the student body. The march originated at school and proceeded to the Veterans National Cemetery. 7 Opening Section mmmsmmmm a V® s V ,V e w vvO f , Ae - 1 1 svO 6 � V e oe 6 ’ o et „ tfv® ocS w 0 et o «c aft CA 6 -a 0 a .

During Homecoming week, we united and captured our first spirit stick. The high spirits and excitement throughout the school during homecoming week, helped us to overshadow the fact that this was to be our last football homecoming. As spirits and excitment from homecoming week ended, and winter approached, we were plagued with the worry and frustration of col¬ lege applications, term papers and ordering of caps and gowns. Spring fever set the stage for preparation of the Prom. It also threw us into a whirl of last minute preparations for class night and com¬ mencement exercises. As exam time approached and the year came to an end, decisions had to be made. The major choices were college, trade school, armed ser¬ vices, or work. When our decisions were made and we went our separate ways, we left know¬ ing that we were a part of the fantastic 1984 SENIOR CLASS. —Floyd Showalter— David Fahrenkrug President Doug Davis Vice-President Lynda Conner Secretary Teresa Russell Treasurer 10 Seniors IBBBBMg Foley Age Angela Aman Mark Arnold Brenda Banks Roger Barnes Sandra Bennett Victoria Berkley William Blair Kenneth Boone Annie Borer Inez Breazell Vincent Breedlove Bryan Brendle Michael Brodie Jacqueli Brown Jeff Brown Karen Brown Michael Brown Michelle Brown Otha Brown 11 Seniors THE DAY was capped a cptTf T A r T TT A U BY FIREWORKS A Ul JCjLj 1 V_J U JL .tv WH!CH pr T.e EVENT by Christine Wallio O n September 17, the Hampton Bay Days took place in downtown Hampton. During this day many activities took place. This year Hampton Bay Days and Fair Day were combined to form one day filled with crafts, paintings, rides, and a variety of shows and demonstra¬ tions. Faithful Key Clubbers and a few members of the Kiwanis, including our sponsor, Doug Somers, arrived at 8:00 a.m. and set up the food stand. The Kiwanis supplied our Key Club with popcorn, drinks, and Halloween candy, all which they were reimbursed for. From 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. the Key Club worked in shifts. Early in the day Shannon Sealey and Joe Rowe competed in the Bay Days 10K road race. The day ended with a spectacular fireworks display — one of the best seen in the Hampton area. Linda Darnell, Christine Wallio, and Shel¬ ly Hodges work at the Bay Days held Sep¬ tember 16 and 17 in downtown Hampton. They are members of the Key Club, which is sponsored by the local Kiwanis Club. Joe Rowe warms down after finishing the 10K road run. The race started and ended at Darling Stadium and went through downtown Hampton. Joe finished 4th in the 17 and under age group with a time of 47:32. 12 Hampton Bay Days I Richard Bryer Annette Burns Debra Burson Paul Burton Desiree Cantonwine Kristina Carnegie Tammy Carrington Tracey Carruthers Timothy Casey Efrem Chandler Wanda Chandler John Chapman Mary Christian Christopher D.

It requires at least one carpenter, a couple of design¬ ers, several “body builders”, a garage lender, but most of all, many and I do mean many, flower makers. Although there were only a few truely dedicated seniors who helped every day, there were many who participated in the making of the flowers. Even some teachers cooper¬ ated by allowing a few minutes in class for flower “fluffing”. The float committee met every day after school at 3:30, and even worked on the weekends. For the most, quitting time was 5:30, but again, there were a couple who worked on through the rest of the evening. Without those extra hours, the float would have never been fin¬ ished by the day of the parade. Yes, it took a lot of dedication and a tremendous amount of hard work. Even so, it proved to be worth every minute of it, because, on October 8, when the float rolled down Mellen Street in the Phoebus Day Parade, the seniors had something to be proud of!! John Thomas, Paul Begansky, David Fahrenk- rug and Phil Hunt spent most of their spare time making flowers for the float. Every now and then others, including sophomores and juniors would come by and lend a hand. Lynn Usry, John Thomas, and Helen Sadler are putting the finishing touches on the Phan¬ tom Their efforts won the senior class $75 for the best float. 15 Float James Glass Kimberly Goodman Carla Greene Shimel Gupton Rebecca Hall Kevin Hamby Deborah Harrison Harold Hartney Schatzi Hawthorne Tamara Haynes Marion Higgins Rodney Hill Jinnifer Hilliard Charles Honaker Lorie Hosey William Houpt Garfield Houston Hannibal Howell Tasha Howell Isaac Hudgins 16, Seniors Gregorv Pugh, Mala Freeman, Wen¬ dy Podmenik and Louise Purdy came to decorate Phoebus on a Sun¬ day afternoon before Homecoming Week.

HOMECOMING WEEK— IT CERTAINLY WAS VERY DIFFERENT by Paulette Parise T he most exciting week for most high schools is the Foot¬ ball Homecoming Week. Phoebus celebrated its 1983 Football Homecoming dur¬ ing the week of October 3rd thru October 8th. Both the students and the teachers participated in the following calendar of events: Monday: Pajama Day Tuesday: Mix-Match Day . Wednesday: New Wave Day Thursday: Toga Day Friday: Blue and Gold Day During each of the fun filled days, a contest was held in the auditorium, and all of the costumes were judged by the faculty The participants were judged on creativity, presentation, and spirit. The most successful days for participation were Pajama Day and New Wave Day. Each of the winners re¬ ceived a yearbook courtesv of the S. C. A. Courtney McNair, Leslie Stewart and Cora Burton head for class on Pajama Day. Many students final were on time as they didn’t requi as much dressing as usual. 17 Homecoming Week Waynette Swain protrays the Phoe¬ bus Phanton at the football Home¬ coming pep rally. She skated around the gym in hopes of boosting up the sophomores spirit. IF ANYONE HAD COME IN AND SEEN US DURING THE WEEK THEY WOULD HAVE FREAKED OUT T A Tednesday after school, the mall area shook with the sound of New Wave music, while the punked- out students danced with a sudden outburst of energy. On Friday, all the Phan¬ toms, dressed in blue and gold, gathered in the gymna¬ sium for the loudest pep ral¬ ly of the year. In a spirited way they showed their ap¬ preciation for their school and their football team.

Lyndy had to make a dash to get to school in time as she also participated in the Miss Phoebus pag¬ eant held at the Chamberlain Hotel on Fort Monroe. Anthony Lee and Linda Pleasants dance to the music during the Friday night dance. The dance took place after the traditional bonfire. music was supplied by DJ., Michael Jay, and he brought with him a great variety of music. Over all, it was a week of fun, ex- citment, and lasting memories. Cheerleaders led the activities at the bonfire as students and local residents turned out to see the “roaring” fire. Precautions were taken to insure the fire stayed under control. 20 Homecoming Myra Lewis Robert Lloyd III William London Naomi Lovette Jay Lundgren Cathy Mack Kenneth Mann Trygve Matsuda Claudia McConnaughey Sonya McIntyre Costina McQueen Rita Meadows Margaret Melton Teresa Miles Michelle Mills Susan Milteer Glen Mingee Patricia Mitchell Rodney Monk Helen Moore Sandra Moore Tammy Morton Nelda Newkirk Constance Nottingham Sonji Nottingham Tammy Orthman Karen Osborne Brenda Outlaw Christee Outten Tracy Padgett 21 Seniors Gene Paranuk Paulette Parise Charles Parker Joseph Parker Karen Parker Scott Parks Robert Patterson James Penn Jr Isaac Perry Debra Pierce Pamela Porter Pricilla Powell Michelle Pugh Jody Puhlman Anthony Raboteau Lisa Reamer Kimberly Reilly Annie Richardson Charlene Richardson Donald Richardson 22 Seniors CHRISTINE WALi r by Teresa Russell TO THE PL SCARED TO DEATH O n October 7, the “Miss Phoe¬ bus” pageant was held in the Virginia Room at the Chamber- lain Hotel. There were a total of 26 girls who participated in the beau¬ ty contest. The girls were judged on personality, poise, and beauty. The preliminary judging was done at a luncneon held at the American Le¬ gion Post 48 on the first of October. This was the personality portion. Each girl was given two questions by the judges to answer with a 3 minute time limit. Rehersals were held in the Virginia Room on October 6. Contestants were given the opportunity to get the feel of the walk they would take the following night. The girls got together for an im¬ promptu luncheon at Chi Chi’s Friday afternoon.

Teresa Russell: Oh no, I have to go to the bath¬ room. Nancy Morelli: It’s a little to late for that, the pageant is beginning. All the girls looked great in spite of their nervousness. Our congratulation to Jeanne Glabus the 2nd runner up. Phoebus alumnae also did well with Doni Cole 1st runner up and Rose Sanzo “Miss Congeniality”. With pleasant memories of the night before, the girls rode in the Phoebus Day parade, perhaps thinking about next years pageant. The contestants anxiously await their turn to take that long walk into the room and down the aisle by the judges. Christine Wallio steps onto the platform and models her outfit to the judges and spectators. Judy Powell turns to cast a smile in the direction of the judges. The event was hosted by the American Legion Post 48 of Phoebus. 23 Miss Phoebus Yong Richardson Kathleen Riley Eric Rivera Scott Robert Edward Robertson II Beverly Russell Lee Russell Helen Sadler Carrie Saunders Stacie Schmidtman Thomas Scott Shannon Sealey Stacey Shelby Floyd Showalter Karen Shuler Tracy Sigler Timothy Slade Raymond Sloan Leneicia Smith Mark Smith 4 Seniors IT WAS A GREAT WAY TO BEGIN THE FESTIVITIES FOR PHOEBUS DAY by Schatzi Hawthorne A s spirit week came to an end, there also came a new begin¬ ning. Phoebus Day, which was on Saturday, Oct 8, was a day not only for Phantoms, but also for other schools in the area. The morning started with a parade and Phoebus High School could be seen as the first school approaching the reviewing stand. Phoebus’ Banner was proudly marched forth and was followed by the majorettes, band, flag corps and cheerleaders. The music be¬ gan to fade away as the convertibles followed the marchers. The first con¬ vertible contained our past and present principals. The second convertible contained the presidents of Phoebus’ S. C. A., Senior, Junior and Sophomore classes. The third convertible which displayed the 1983 Homecoming Queen, Lyndy Conner, slowly passed, and the crowd enthusiastically cheered the new queen. The cheering soon died down, and all eyes were on the beautiful float created by the senior class. It was followed by the junior and sophomore class floats. Though the un¬ derclassmen tried very hard, the senior class won the $75 prize given by the S. C. A. for the winning float. Some other honors that we won for the day were the Civilian Marching Unit Award and the Marching Unit Award which was given to the M.J.R.O.T.C. Both of these awards were given by the judges at the reviewing stand. Tim Baxter warmed up for the 10K road run with a short one mile run. The one mile race was open to anyone who wanted to test his ability to go that distance. The band, wearing their Phoebus 1 hats marched in the parade. The march route took them down Mellen Street onto County Street and the reviewing stand. Crystal Cooper and Cathy Mack represented the S. C. A. during the parade. Different organiza¬ tions sold various things to raise money. 25 Phoebus Day THE SENIOR CLASS FLOAT HIGHLIGHTED THE PARADE A s the parade neared its end with participants from other high schools and organizations, Phoebus Day still was not over, for the rest of the day was celebrated by festivities which continued throughout the afternoon. The day finally ended lat¬ er that night with the football game with Menchville. The Homecoming court was presented while the band played a number in honor of the Queen. Principals past and present were represented in the parade. Mr. Clayton Washington is our present principal, Dr. Donald Musselman is now the Superintendent of Schools, and Mr. Harry Dyche left us this year to become Direc¬ tor of Instruction for Secondary Education. Theresa Kinzie, holding the gift, was one of many students who viewed the festivities during the day. Here she watched the R. O. T. C. units march by. 26 Phoebus Day Patricia Smith Kenneth Snyder Elizabeth Soltys Patricia Soltys William Stanley Jr Alice Starcher Brian Staton Mona Stensrud Mary Stevens Shelia Sutton Shelly Sutton Keith Tate Truman Taylor John Thomas Marty Thomas Anne Thompson Dale Thompson Angela Tibbitt Beverly Toliver Aretha Towns Norma Trader Dung Tran Elconde Tucker Luther Turlington Alvin Turner Karen Turner Cassandra Tynes Lynn Usry Linda Vickery Lena Vines 27 Seniors ELIZABETH SOLTYS: I FOUND THE YEARBOOK WORKSHOP TO BE OF GREAT VALUE.

For them the year had not quite ended. On Sunday the 19th they pulled back out their pens and note pads and went back to class. No, these were not math and English classes, but a yearbook workshop at Longwood College. Although the classes at the four day workshop were not on typical subjects, they contained all the elements of a typical class. The instructors lectured and the students took notes. There were class discussions and homework assignments. However, instead of do¬ ing math problems, these students were writing copy and doing layouts. The lectures were about raising money, copy fitting, and layout design, among others, as opposed to science or social The Soltys twins, Elizabeth and Patricia, work on f their layout design as Suzanne Willis contem¬ plates her next move. A layout design was re¬ quired from each of the participants at the work¬ shop. studies. On top of classes there were many other things going on. There were new people to meet and yearbooks from other schools to look at, and on the last night there was a dance. Even though they had to come back to school, most thoroughly enjoyed the workshop. So, if you attended and are asked what you did this summer, you might reply, “I went back to school.” Suzanne Willis, Patricia and Elizabeth Soltys en¬ joy a few moments of relaxation between classes. Classes lasted from eight in the morning until ten at night. 29 Longwood Workshop ANNE THOMPSON: THE FOOD HERE IS GOOD BUT VERY UNHEALTHY OUR FOOD DOESN’T CONTAIN ALL THIS SUGAR.

Mona Stensrud is eigh¬ teen and lives in Norway’s cap ' tal, Oslo. In Hampton she resides with the Mahon¬ eys in Mill Point. Mona is very active at Phoebus, she played on the tennis team, sang in the small vocal en¬ semble, and was an honored member of the Foreign Lan¬ guage Club. Mona was a se¬ nior this year, but when she returns to Norway, she has to finish her last year of school. She plans to attend college after she finishes school in Norway, and there is a slight possibility that she might at¬ tend a University here in the United States. Anne Thompson is six¬ teen and is staying with Judy Coons in South Hampton. She lives in a small town in Norway called Tvedestrand. Like Mona, Anne also played on the tennis team and was an honored member of the Foreign Language Club. Anne is also a senior. She is easily recognized by IT OFF her fantastic personality and she is a very outspoken per¬ son. Anne and Mona arrived here August 9, 1983. They were previously informed by their “house-mothers”, that there were two other Norwegian students coming to the same general area. Mona and Anne were a little skeptical about meeting the other Norwegian students, but when they met in a New York airport, they “hit it off”. The other Norwegian stu¬ dent resides in Newport News. Mona and Anne really ad¬ justed well in their new life styles. They look and act like the normal American high school females. Mona and Anne returned to their Country in June. Although they have some complaints, such as the food has too much sugar and is very fat¬ tening, I am sure they will leave with some good memories. We have enjoyed Mona and Anne, and they will be greatly missed. Anne and Mona found time to view the Miss Phoebus pageant where fifteen Phoebus girls were partici¬ pating. The event took place at the Chamberlain Hotel on Fort Monroe. Anne Thompson and Mona Stens¬ rud collect tennis balls after an afternoon of tennis practice. ' Both girls became active in school activi¬ ties. 31 Foreign Exchange Students CHRIS COLEMAN: ALL I COULD DO WAS STAND AND STARE IN DISBELIEF by Suzanne Willis I t’s third down and goal to go. The ball rests on the Bruin 4 yd line with 54 ticks left on the clock. The Phantoms trail the 4 rated team in the State, Bethel, 7—9. Simon “Goo” Toliver, takes the snap, drops back and fires a pass in the end zone. The pass is de¬ flected and intercepted by a Bruin defender. Bethel goes on to run out the clock. In a matter of seconds, feelings switch from an emotional high to a valley of depres¬ sion. Todd Lattimore shows his disap¬ pointment over the loss. Todd is a senior offensive and defensive tack¬ le. Bethel senior Terry Vann, cousin of Todd, tries to console Todd after the disappointing loss. The crowd and players alike experienced a feeling of disbelief—this couldn’t have happened! To play your hearts out and dominate a game only to lost by one field! However even after falling behind, the team cou¬ rageously came back against one of the best defenses in the State. There will always be people saying, “You should have done this, or you should have done that,” but that doesn’t matter. One can only swallow the hurt and get ready for the next game. Time heals all wounds. Yet, even in losing you gain respect. The oppo¬ nent breaths a sign of relief in pulling out the game in the last seconds. Everyone can hold their heads high knowing they gave it their all. Comments from the stands reflect the views that you are a good football team and can play with anybody. You, the football team, made us proud to be Phan¬ toms and, even in losing, you helped put us back in Phoe¬ bus. 32 Student Activities Chris Coleman stares in disbelief and Tim Casey (21) wonders wheth¬ er this really could have happened. Chris intercepted a pass and re¬ turned it 34 yards for a touchdown early in the first auarter. This score held up until Betnel kicked a field goal with 4:11 left in the game. Senior Rodney Douglas, although not a starter, feels the agony of de¬ feat. He felt the team worked hard for the victory, only to have it taken away in the last minute. Leslie Stewart and Karen Turner console each other immediately after the game. “We should have won,” said Leslie. “It was very dis¬ appointing — and very emotional.” Karen and Leslie are members of the Varsity Cheerleading Squad. 33 Student Activities Each class entered a float in the Phoebus Day parade. The SCA sponsored the competition between classes and presented the class with the winning float $75. Take It To The Top T he class of ’85 has almost made it to the end, this is their junior year. Some say it is the worst year, but most feel it is the best. In some ways maybe it is bad. For the first year one really knows a lot of the seniors who will be graduating, and the thought of one’s own graduation is starting to become a reality. Yet, to most, the junior year is the best. One is no longer the new kid on the block. As a junior one knows the school and most of the teachers, yet the real pressures of graduation have not yet set in. The junior year will long be remembered as the year we finally got our class rings and spon¬ soring the Junior Senior Prom. Putting on the prom is one of the ways in which the junior class helped to put US back in Phoebus. —Suzanne Willis Caroline Bohi President Quoc Tran Vice-President Wanda Bailey Secretary Roger Williams Treasurer 34 Juniors Glen Adams Timothy Allen Phillip Andrucci II Evan Arguello Darrin Artis Robert Baird II Craig Baker Margaret Baker James Banks Sheila Banks Jewel Barnes Lauri Barthelmes Michael Batten Timothy Baxter Jeffrey Beasley Tamatha Beckett Timothy Beckwith David Bellamy Veronica Bellamy Hiroshi Bizyak Hugh Black Antonio Blackley Chermon Blackwell Monica Blair Andrew Blizzard Lashemia Blue Colesta Boals Christopher Boyce Robert Bramblet Dawn Britt 35 Juniors Karen }.

As the Band, ROTC, Post 48 flag bearers, and spectators waited for the proces¬ sion to begin, people could be found huddling together in an effort to keep warm. After a short wait, Mrs. Anna Gear, recently elected President of the Na¬ tional Organization of the American Legion Ladies Auxiliary arrived. This day marked the official return to her home for the first time since the Au¬ gust election. Friends and members of the local community turned out in celebrating her return. Mrs. Gear arrived at 12:40 p.m. with approximately 178 out of town guests from across the nation. They came as members of the Ladies Auxiliary to help in the celebration of the recent election. The parade, honoring Mrs. Gear, be¬ gan and proceeded to American Legion Post 48 Lodge where there was a short flag raising ceremony. The party then went inside where Mrs. Gear presented awards to Phoe¬ bus High School, the band, and ROTC units on behalf of the local Post 48 Lodge. Mr. Clayton Washington, princi¬ pal, accepted the award for Phoebus. Phoebus was recognized for being named High School of the year in Hampton for 1983, and also for its orga¬ nization of the Stand up for America Day—an annual event to show student patriotism. Mr. A1 Morris, band director and Ma¬ jor Carter Valentine along with Cadet Commander Joe Parker, received the award for their units. The ceremony ended with refresh¬ ments being served to all who partici¬ pated in the event. ¥ ; A 11 l 11 i ti j 11 t f? 1 : J The American Legion Post 48 color guard mem¬ bers lead the procession with the band behind them.

Toys for Tots was started by the Marine Corps. The Marines used the donated money to pur¬ chase toys for underpriveledged children. First period teachers were asked to have students donate money for the cause. By the end of the two weeks, four hundred dollars was collected and given to Major Valentine for Toys for Tots. Showing their Christmas spirit, Tammy Welch and Lisa Reamer en¬ ter the gym for the Christmas as¬ sembly. There were popular Christ¬ mas selections sung and played by the band and chorus. 39 Toys for Tots XX GOING TO COLLEGE? by Cherie Furlow unr he representatives were very informative and interesting,” said Susan Milteer, about the College night held November 11. Over 100 colleges came with forms, pam¬ phlets, applications, and various items describing their college in detail. Students from Hampton, Bethel, Ke- coughtan, and Phoebus swarmed through the school gathering informa¬ tion. “It helped me narrow down the long list of colleges I was considering going to,” said Kristina Carnegie. “I will now apply to three.” The evening started at 7:30 p.m. with sessions going on every twenty min¬ utes. The sessions ended at 9:30 p.m. In each session a representative from a college would speak on what their col¬ lege could offer students, if they go to their college. Many students stayed a little longer to talk with representa¬ tives from various colleges. “THE REPRESENTATIVES WERE VERY INFORMA¬ TIVE AND INTERESTING.” —SUSAN MILTEER “I learned that taking the SAT is very important if you want to attend a col¬ lege,” said Sonya McIntyre. This year was the first year College Night was held at Phoebus High School. Sheila Sutton and her mother, Mrs. Shirley Sut¬ ton, talk to Mr. Andrew C. Warren, representa¬ tive from Randolph Macon Womans College. Sheila was there seeking information about var¬ ious colleges. She plans on attending Va. Tech next year. Laura Wilhelm takes a moment to look at a bulle¬ tin from North Carolina Wesleyan College as re¬ presentative Mr. Steve Lancaster looks on. Col¬ lege night gave students a chance to view various colleges and college representatives the opportu¬ nity to influence students toward their institu¬ tion. 40 College Night Sandra Hughes Jeffrey Humphrey Joyce Jackson Vernita Jackson Porter Jenkins Anthony Jennings Carson Johnson Juli Johnson Lori Johnson Angela Jones Kathleen Jones Sylvester Jones Tina Joyner Bryon Katrovitz Kenneth Kea Rachel Kee Robert Killen Dennis Killens, Jr. Joseph King Earl Kirkendall Mary Koch Cynthia Lassiter Jeff Laster Lori Lawwill Christopher Leatherwood James Lee Karen Lee William Lee Lanni Lindsay Brandi Liscum Timothy Logan Felicia Mackey Mary Mackin Rhonda Magee Christopher Malloy Jean Martin Shawn Matthews Ronald Mayo Amy McDonald Tony McEachin Kae McGee Ray McMains 41 Juniors WHO WOULD EVER HAVE THOUGHT THAT WE WOULD BE ON TV Early morning practices became common place as the team prepared for their upcoming matcn against one of Norfolk’s private schools. Paul Begansky and Chris Freeman confer on a question during the practice sessions. Jeff Harris, John Thomas, Kenneth Mann, and Paul Begansky find a moment to relax and confer with each other before the actual compe¬ tition with Norfolk Collegiate. The taping took place September 26 in Norfolk. by John Thomas K nowledge in different academic fields and an ability to respond cor¬ rectly in a “rapid fire“ situa¬ tion are the qualities that were considered in choosing this years Tidewater Chal¬ lenge Team. The Tidewater Challenge is an academic competition produced by WHRO-TV that matches teams from Tidewater Area High Schools in a quiz show format. This year’s team consisted of Sophomore Jeff Harris, and Seniors Paul Be¬ gansky, Kenneth Mann and team captain John Thomas. At 7:30 a.m. each school day, the four team members along with alternates, Senior David Fahrenkrug, Juniors Suzanne Willis, Christopher Freeman and Sophomore Ju¬ lie Antolick, practiced the skills needed for participat¬ ing in an academic quiz show. Norfolk Collegiate was the team’s opponent on the Sep¬ tember 26 taping of the show which aired December 12. It may have been the cameras or simple inexperience but Phoebus didn’t win. “They didn’t ask the right ques¬ tions,” said Jeff, “they should have asked more about geog¬ raphy.” Geography was Jeff’s specialty. “We did our best,” said Paul, “but we made some bad mistakes, we were real¬ ly close on some of the missed answers.” Kenneth saw the experience as a memorable happening. “Who ever imagined I’d be on T.V. It was fun, but I’d feel a lot better if we’d won.” Mr. Neil Cox and Miss Bonnie Tingle, the faculty sponsors look to next year and the experience of the four returning team mem¬ bers.

It requires hard work and many hours. For a successful production, team work, devotion, and determination are in great demand. The process begins with the director selecting the play he wishes to use in the performance. He then confers with the set designer. A stage manager is se¬ lected to assist the director. The stage movements need to be planned so actors and actresses can be¬ gin working movements and lines to¬ gether, this helps to make their move¬ ments seem real and natural. Auditions are then held. The direc¬ tor selects the cast and technical per¬ sonnel. For each technical crew there is a crew chief who keeps the director informed of the progress or set backs of the crew. A production calendar is planned; this gives the dates and times of re¬ hearsals and the technical assign¬ ments. The castmembers learn their lines and movements, referred to as block¬ ing. They then use rehearsal time to toy with and learn the character they are trying to portray. The lighting crew must aim and fo¬ cus the lights. Necessary colors must be set up. Sound effects need to be planned; and essential sounds need to be record¬ ed. Construction for the set is a large task. This requires obtaining materials, building, and painting. Promotion is done through publicity. The methods are decided upon, (school, radio, television, newspaper, flyers, etc. . . . ) and put into action. The tickets are printed, distributed, and later accounted for. The program for the show is written, typed, printed, and later dispersed by the house manager. Dress and technical rehearsals are the final preparation for the play. All that is left now are hopes that all this work will result in a successful show. Mary Mackin demonstrates the lighting to Steve Galla, Grady Brown, Bryan Gray and Steve Mann, while Mr. Neil Cox observes. The crew had to be alert during the plays to get the correct lighting for each scene. Brian Staton helps prepare the props for the pro¬ duction. Props had to be moved between acts to insure the right scenes. 45 Drama THE FALL PRODUCTION CONSISTED OF FOUR ONE ACT PLAYS by Colesta Boals T he fall production consisted of four one-act plays “Nobody Sleeps,” “Sorry Wrong Number,” “The Hitch-Hiker,” and “No snakes in This Grass.” Three of these were produced entire¬ ly by the acting classes. For the stu¬ dents, the performances were a class grade. This concept took academics be¬ yond the classroom. The other play was cast primarily among students that were not in the acting class. Open audi¬ tions were held. Every day the acting class would divide into three sections to practice lines or rehearse. Somewhere in the distance one could hear Linda Darnell singing, “Come on, come on get happy. Come- on to Bennigan’s”, or maybe one would see Donald Richardson lying down on a row of chairs. When a few people from the produc¬ tions were asked for reaction on these plays they give these replys. Michael Brown, Karen Talbott and Chrissy Weih perform in “Nobody Sleeps. An unfortunate burglar creeps into the wrong house, where he is disgraced at his profession. Perry Davis as Adam and Pamela Stephenson as Eve from “No Snakes in This Grass,” find trouble in The Garden of Eden. “I ENJOYED MEETING ALL THE STUDENTS AND AD¬ MIRED THEIR WORK, BUT I WOULDN’T WANT TO DO IT AGAIN”, MR. CLAYTON WASHINGTON. “I enjoyed meeting all the students, and admired their work,” said Mr. Clayton Washington, “but I wouldn’t want to do it again!” Chrissy Weih commented, “I think the best part of working for our produc¬ tion was the friendships I have gained and of course I could not leave out the pleasure of hearing Michael Brown telling his witty jokes or doing his Billy Joel imitations.” “Working on a production takes dedi¬ cation but it also enables us to become better acquainted with our fellow classmates.” replied Karen Talbott. Shawn DaCosta reflected that, “put¬ ting on the production was fun but the party afterwards was even better.” “The most exciting aspect of the Fall production,” said Mr. Marvin Sylvest, “was hearing the acting class produce plays for a public audience.” Michael Brown said, “My most en¬ joyable experience from this produc¬ tion was working with five beautiful young ladies: Colesta Boals, Jackie Gause, Chrissy Weih, Karen Talbott and Melanie Blume.” On the final night of the productions the cast showed their appreciation by presenting the director, Mr. Marvin Sylvest with roses. 46 Drama Sharon Smallwood Aaron Smith Bradley Smith George Smith II James Smith Kyong Smith Shannon Smith Kendra Sneed Kathy Spratley Jason Stanbrook Tracy Stanius David Starling Pamela Stephenson Leslie Stewart Jeffrey Stokes Desiree Summers Anna Taylor Jonathan Taylor Matthew Taylor III Timothy Taylor Bernice Terrell Angela Thomas Teresa Thomas Steve Thompson Simon Toliver Patricia Towns Kevin Turner Sandra Tweed Pete Veneris Jon Vogel 47 Juniors MOST OF THE ORGANIZATIONS JOINED TOGETHER TO HONOR THE TEACHERS by Suzanne Willis uring American Education Week, Phantoms joined with other stu¬ dents across the nation to show teachers how much they are appre¬ ciated. Schools throughout the country were on display through visitations and open-house activities November 13-19. This annual recognition of the importance and necessity of public education is reflected in this year’s na¬ tional theme “A Strong Nation Needs Strong Public Schools.” The ’83 cele¬ bration is being co-sponsored by the National Education Association, the National Congress of Parents and Teachers, The National School Board Association, the American Legion, and the U.S. Department of Education. Different organizations had various activities going on during the week in recognition of this event. On Monday the SCA and PTA com¬ bined to provide snacks and coffee for the teachers in the SCA room. Tuesday the administration pro¬ vided coffee and doughnuts. Wednesday, which was the official Teacher Appreciation Day, the Sopho¬ more Class provided cake and coffee, while the Junior Class gave each of the departments plants. FBLA had a draw¬ ing with candy prizes, and the Drama Club wrote poems for the teachers. The Keyettes provided balloons and the Key Club placed posters in the Teach¬ er’s Dining Hall. Thursday, the Varsity Cheerleaders donated cupcakes and coffee. Friday, the Senior Class placed cakes in the teacher work rooms. Cake and coffee were contributed by the J.V. Cheerleaders, and HERO put cupcakes in the mailboxes. Also the Foreign Lan¬ guage Club provided cards and kisses for each teacher. Through these efforts the clubs and organizations have shown that, al¬ though it is not always expressed, teachers truly are appreciated. vativxrlanD Shanda Crawford places cupcakes in the faculty dining area as the cheerleaders brought in break¬ fast for the faculty Monday morning. Mrs. Bar¬ bara Harris, Mr. Marvin Sylvest, Mr. Wade Trayn- ham, Mr. Neil Cox, Mr. Charles Cherry, Mrs. Paige Archer and Mrs. Brenda Fraser came in to sample the food. Key Clubbers, Caroline Bohi, Jay Lundgren and Carlo O’Keefe place pictures in the faculty din¬ ing area to spruce up the room. Most clubs hon¬ ored the faculty in some way. 48 American Education Week Benita Walker Christine Wallio William Walton Donna Wampler Tammy Ward Camelia Washington Benjamin Watson Janet Watt Lee Watterton John Weaver Chris Weeks Christine Weih Tami Welch Leslie Wellons Neville Wells Tracy Wemyss Steve Whitehead Vivian Wilhelm Rose Willett Kelvin Williams Pam Williams David Willis Suzanne Willis Lisa Wills Ronald Winder Becky Windsor Monique Winston Donovan Wise Ellen Wolfe Amy Young 49 Juniors JUNIOR ACHIEVEMENT PROVIDES STUDENTS WITH AN OPPORTUNITY TO SEE HOW BUSINESS WORKS IN THE REAL WORLD by Caroline Bohi A large number of students partici¬ pate in extracurricular activities outside of school. One example of this is Junior Achievement, com¬ monly referred to as “J.A.” By partici¬ pating in Junior Achievement, stu¬ dents gain business experience and knowledge by setting up and running their own companies. Each company manufactures its own product such as picture frames and insulated cups and markets them. The companies are to¬ tally self-sufficient and function like real companies, even selling capital stock and preparing for financial au¬ dits. The success or failure of each com¬ pany depends on quality merchandise, good management and of course, con¬ vincing salespeople. Each J.A. member is rewarded for their hard work and dedication by earning a salary and sales commission. There are sales com¬ petitions within the company and against the other companies. Each member thus develops a sense of pride and loyalty to their organization. Without the help of professional businessmen, Junior Achievement could never exist. Three advisors from such corporations as VEPCO, Newport News Shipbuilding and Noland Com¬ pany are assigned to each J.A. company. They assist in all areas of the company: from straightening out financial re¬ cords to solving production problems and should be praised for their pa¬ tience and assistance. One of the important jobs of the company officers is keeping the books. Caroline Bohi, Vice Presi¬ dent of Financing is busily at work balancing the Clearview company budget. unior Achievement Avital part of the Clearview company is the pro¬ duction of plexiglass picture frames. Jeff Brown is shown measuring plexiglass as Pam Williams supervises. The U-Tote-Um company produces log carriers made of canvas and rope. Elizabeth Sawyer and Vanessa Shaw are pictured as they attach rope to the canvas carriers. The Thermco company was very successful in its production and sale of insulated mugs. Two com¬ pany members, Mark Dunford and Sheri Mitzel worked very hard to produce a finished product. 51 Junior Achievement The Sophomores gave out balloons to the crowd of people that lined the streets for the Phoebus Day Parade. Each class entered a float in the competition.

Oh, it looks easy enough from the outside . . . your average large high school. Brown brick. No sweat. There are millions like it in the world. What could be simpler? One step inside told the sophomores that many things could be simpler. One thing the sophomores did not count on was symmetry. How could anyone find his way around a school that has identical sides? The sophomores tackled this and other prob¬ lems with determination and a lot of hope for the best. But all the confusion and hard work was worth the satisfaction of finally becoming a full-fledged Phantom. As the year went by and things fell into order, the sophomores took their rightful places as such. They went out for the various clubs and sports activities and oth¬ erwise made their presences known. The soph¬ omores definitely made it clear that they were part of the “US” in Phoebus! —)ulie Antolick Johnny Walker President Michael Davenport Vice-President Sophomores J Shalizar Abdul-Musawir Donnell Allen „ W David Alston r Amy Angle M Julie Antolick Tammy Askew Glenda Atkinson Carla Austin Penny Baker James Barker Jeffrey Barnes Rossalind Barnum Jay Bassett Mary Beck Michelle Belanger Beatrice Bennett Joann Berkley Phyl Billington Mitzi Blume Henderson Blunt William Bowers David Boyd William Braxton Bonnie Brown Doris Brown Edwin Brown Grady Brown Bryan Burch James Burt Cora Burton 53 Sophomores SCHOOL SYSTEM HONORS CITIZENSHIP by John Thomas G ood citizens please step forward! Twenty four students were se¬ lected this year to participate in the citizen of the month luncheons held from September to May. The lun¬ cheons began in 1981 to honor out¬ standing citizenship of students in the Hampton City Schools. “IT IS QUITE AN HONOR THAT MY TEACHERS CHOSE ME.” — PHILIP HUNT The luncheons are sponsored by pri¬ vate organizations and are endorsed by the school system. They are held at the Chamberlain Hotel. Teachers are asked to nominate stu¬ dents and a committee meets to select the three students from Phoebus who will join honorees from other schools at the banquet each month. “It is quite an honor that my teachers chose me” said Philip Hunt, who has been chosen as citizen of the month in 11th and 12th grade. “I was surprised,” said David Fahrenkrug, a senior, “but I’m happy that they chose me.” Senior Shandra Fields (wearing the carnation) listens to the question and answer session which followed the dinner. Three students from Phoe¬ bus were honored by the School Board each month. Anna Taylor (wearing the carnation) was one of the November honorees. Students were taken to the Chamberlain Hotel at Fort Monroe where they were rewarded for being chosen by their school. 54 Citizen of the Month Verrenies Burton Todd Caldwell Ezequiel Calero Emanuel Carter Lynda Carter Paul Carter Victor Carter Julie Cerve Marnie Chambers Margueritte Chandler Robert Chandler Joann Chenoweth Tonya Christian Kenneth Christopher Willie Climes Lisa Coleman Derrick Cooper Richard Cosby Judd Cranfill Patricia Current Michael Davenport Renee Davenport Barbara Davis Kelley Davis Kevin Davis Mike Dean Johnathan Deane James Debaun Darryl Dixon Anjnette Dozier Zachary Duncan Margie Dunford Nancy Eason Chenelle East Author Edmon Hillary Edwards Jason Edwards Randy Ellerbee Gerry Ellington, Jr. Carolyn Ellis James Ellis Brian Endres 55 Sophomores Tommy Fair Jr. Karen Fairchild Shannon Faulkner Stacy Faulkner Marla Fields Alfred Finch Doris Finn Ursula Fletcher Gail Foster Jennifer Foye Mala Freeman Tina Freeman Alissa Galloway Brita Gatling Gina Gibbons Katrina Gilchrist Julie Glass Tina Glover Lester Gordon Troy Gordon Monica Grady Michelle Grant Kyle Graves Brian Gray Barook Greene Mack Greene Tina Griffith Robert Hall Ann Hannah Brian Harmon 56 Sophomores Rodney Dozier, Ronald Johnson, Isaac Hudgins, Garfield Houston dress up for opposite sex day — a few of the fellows had fun dressing up as fe¬ males. STUDENTS GET IN THE MOOD FOR HOMECOMING BY DRESSING by Elyzabeth Soltys uring the basketball Homecom¬ ing Week, students showed their school spirit by participating in the different activities. Monday was Opposite Sex Day where guys dressed up as girls and girls dressed up as guys. The girls who dressed as guys wore outfits that ranged from quite normal to the ex¬ treme. Some came dressed in baseball outfits and army fatigues. Others came like construction workers, Boy George, and Adam Ant. Many of the guys just wore dresses, but some guys went all out and wore make-up, nail polish, bras, wigs, and high heels. Glen Adams said, “Dressing like a girl gave me a lot of respect for women. It was painful walking around in heels and wearing all that make-up.” Brian Staton stated, “I don’t see how girls can wear bras. Mine’s killing me.” Shanda Crawford, Tasha Howell and Veronica Bellamy participated in the little “kiddie day”. If you would have walked in school that day you would have thought that you were in an elemen¬ tary school. Ed Turlington, and Isaac Perry assume the GQ look as part of Tuesday’s dress-up day. The GQ look has become a popular look around school this year. 57 Homecoming Week OUR LAST HOMECOMING QUICKLY CAME TO AN END T uesday was GQ day where people dressed in their best clothes. If some one came into school they would have thought that there was a Prom going on because students were well dressed. Thursday was Nerd Day. Fonzie wouldn’t have wanted to be at school on this day, because there were so many nerds. The fashion for this day consisted of mismatched clothes and taped glasses. To finish off the week’s activities was Blue and Gold Day, a pep rally. Then the Basketball game. After the game there was a dance. Even though the Varsity Basketball team was defeated by Warwick, the team showed that It’s not whether you win or lose, but how you play the game that’s important.

Nerd Day was the last day that students dressed up before the pep rally and the Homecoming Game Friday. Chris White, Crystal White, LeRon Gilchrist, Ka¬ ren Turner, Tim Casey, Mona Stensrud, Teresa Payne, Linda Carter, Connie Moss, and Rhonda Magee were called in front of the student body during the pep rally the morning of the Home¬ coming Game. They were the nominees for the Homecoming Court. This was the first year that both a king and queen were elected. 59 Basketball Homecoming FINALLY IT CAME TIME TO CROWN THE F or the first time, a Homecoming King was chosen along with the Homecoming Queen. Seniors Tim Casey and Karen Turner were chosen as the 1984 Basketball Homecoming King and Queen. At halftime, the King and Queen were revealed. Tim Ca¬ sey anxiously awaited as David Fahrenkrug muffled and delayed the opening of the envelope. “Homecoming Week was so full of excitement and sus¬ pense that the waiting on Friday’s decision put a tremen¬ dous amount of pressure, not just on me, but on everyone involved in the ceremony. To be crowned the King was quite an honor, but could never have been accomplished without the support of the students,” said Tim Casey. And so Phoebus finally had a King and Queen. Tim Casey and Karen Turner were so crowned at the Homecoming Game against Warwick.

Each thing we do brings us closer to that big day. Mrs. Beverly Amante’s voice rings in our ears, “Have you paid your class dues? Let’s get them all in.” Stand straight. How much do you weigh? Hold your head straight. Mea¬ surements for cap and gowns were fi¬ nally over. Graduation invitations? How many? What style? Don’t forget the thank-you notes and the memory books that will be cherished through the years. Through all this we have to remember to keep our grades above the passing mark. Just to remind us there is a future after graduation, we attend college night to help us on our way. We learn how to fill out college applica¬ tions and how to get financial aid. The countdown is nearly finished — class night, baccalaureate, and gradu¬ ation nostalgia overwhelms us. The bitter sweet waiting is over. Our mis¬ sion has been accomplished. Mrs. Beverly Amante receives payment of class dues from Lee Russell. Senior dues must be paid before seniors can graduate. This payment helps pay for cap and gowns as well as the Senior Prom. Teresa Russell measures Rodney Garman for his cap and gown. Measurements and fittings are done before that final day of graduation. 63 Graduation Preparation Mr. Rick Navickas supervises Cary Christian, Emanuel Carter and Luther Turlington as they unload mulch. The beautification committee has been busy trying to make the school look other than a prison. Harry Golden and Jimmy DeBaun prepare the ground for the planting of a tree. Over 100 trees were planted to help improve the looks of the grounds surrounding the building.

The first committee laid the ground work for the committee. They made plans which were acted upon during this school year. The committee consists of the SCA, the student body and is under the su¬ pervision of Mr. Ross Kearney and Mr. Rick Navickas. They are responsible for the planting of trees and shrubs around the school, and the painting of trash cans and the pillars. Mr. Navickas stated, “The appear¬ ance of Phoebus has improved slowly but surely. It is directly attributed to the work of the students, the SCA, and the Senior Class.” He went on to add, “I’d like to thank Donald Carson, presi¬ dent of the committee, Mr. John Lock¬ ett who made the Phoebus stencil, Bill Johnson, who was responsible for the upstairs painting, and the many others who helped to beautify the school. Down the road, the ultimate goal of the committee is to make this the best¬ looking school in the State.” 65 Beautification Committee Ross Kearney, David Quinn, Alvin Hudgins, and William Johnson join together with other high school choirs to support the Daily Press Christ¬ mas Fund Campaign. Almost $3,000 was raised through the efforts of the Hampton bands and choruses. Suzanne Rishell, Key Club member, tallies up her collection box. The Key Club and Keyettes collected from the people that attended the free concert. CHRISTMAS FUND CAMPAIGN BRINGS by Cherie Furlow JOY TO MANY “IT’S AN HONOR TO PREPARE OUR STUDENTS FOR THE CONCERT.’’ MR. WILLIAM F. CRUMP P hoebus High School played an im¬ portant part in the Daily Press Times-Hearld 55th Annual Christmas Fund Campaign. Certificates were giv¬ en to families named by social service workers, and these certificates were re¬ deemable at selected cooperating stores throughout the Peninsula for toys or clothing for each child. Phoebus High School participants included the band, chorus, Key Club, and Keyettes. All the schools of the city of Hampton joined together in voice, song, and in spirit to put together the most profit¬ able Christmas concert ever. The City of Hampton Public Schools raised $2,984.86 to contribute to the fund. Along with the other Hampton City School Bands, our band played three or four pieces of Christmas music. The Ensemble and A Cappella Chorus joined in with the other city school choirs to sing six pieces for the concert. The Key Club and Keyettes participat¬ ed in the program by passing out pro¬ grams and collecting the funds. Choir director Mr. William Crump said that, “It’s an honor for me as choral director to prepare our students each year to perform for the concert. Especially re¬ alizing how many people are helped by such a noble gesture.” Karen Talbott Yicki Talton Gregory Tanner Christie Thomas Dennis Thompson Luther Thompson Vonley Thompson Edith Thornton Stacy Tillman Robert Tinder Lisa Tolbert Brian Toliver Stephanie Traynham Darren Trice Chau Truong Sarran Turlington Sonya Tyson Latera Walker Vernon Walker Tonya Walters Whitney Wampler Richard Washington 66 Sophomores 67 Daily Press Christmas Fund Marc Watson David Watts Larry Watts Sheila Weatherford Saundra Welch Bey Timothy West Diana Williams Donna Williams Jonathan Williams Kevin Williams Robert Williams Shawn Williams Erik Winslow Curtis Wompler Bernethea Worrell James Wright Michael Wydra Gershom Wynn Sarah Yi Stephanie Young 68 Sophomores Carolyn Pope and Rod Hudson spend a few mo¬ ments relaxing before first period. Some students get to school early and find a little time to catch up on their homework or catch up on the latest gossip. THERE’S ALWAYS SOMETHING TO DO BEFORE by Patricia Soltys B efore school, many students spent the time from when they entered the building until their first class in a variety of ways. Many students could be seen in classrooms or in the cafeteria putting the final touches on their homework before going to class. For some, the time was spent relax¬ ing with friends and getting caught up on the latest gossip. These students could be found gathered in classrooms or in the cafeteria. SCHOOL Others enjoyed strolling the halls with their boyfriends or girlfriends. Most who were found in the halls did this because their friends had separate classes and they usually don’t see each other most of the day. For a few who didn’t make it on time to school, the day started out in the Dean’s office or they just came late to class. However the time was spent, most enjoyed the short break before classes began. Kenneth Mann could usually be found in me computer room before school. Many students could come to school early to get some computer time in as it was hard to get on the computers during class time. Some students always found time to get to¬ gether and socialize before classes. Glen Adams, Elyzabeth Soltys, Michelle Mills, Patricia Soltys, and Rose Willet found Mr. Servais’ classroom a meeting place each day before school. 69 Before School Colesta Boals models her mini-skirt which was sent to her from Germany. Colesta also kept up with men’s fashions as she spent much of her time working at DJ’s men’s clothing store. THE LOOK OF THINGS COME by Reinier Cruz rom jeans to Izod sweaters, fash¬ ion at school ranged from the mel¬ lowed liberal look to the extreme¬ ly conservative. But it was everything in between that remained all fashion¬ able. Nothing was off limits as the stu¬ dents experimented with government issue, fashion and name brands. Many guys associated with govern¬ ment issue field jackets, pants, and caps. Whereas others were into leather and Black Flag. “I like the jackets be¬ cause they are comfortable, as to the music I listen to, it is just another way of releasing adolescent tension,” re¬ plied Tracy Sigler. Some students took a more nonchalant attitude and wore Gentleman’s Quarters Finest. “I like to dress with style and a bit of finesse be¬ cause it enhances my personality,” stat¬ ed Senior LeRon Gilchrist. Among females, mini-skirts were all the craze as Tammy Ward commented, “It’s just different.” The ever-popular ankle boots and knickers took second and third respectively in popularity. Last but not least there were the pre¬ paratory enthusiasts (or extremely conservative) who enjoyed the izod alligator and JC Penney fox. The stu¬ dents’ lifestyle reflected their personal taste, but it was apparent that neither sex lived in fear of being “out of it”. Tammy Ward models her mini-skirt during school. The mini-skirt proved to be the most pop¬ ular dress for the female sex this year. Stanley Johnson assumes the GQ look. The GQ look, complete with arguille sweater was popular among the males. 1 70 Fashions Naomi and Ronald Lovette get a chance to talk during one of the fire drills at school. Students were often seen around school in balloon pants. Tina Griffith pauses to get her books in prepara¬ tion for her next class. Tina was often found dressed in her mini-skirts. Chris Freeman strolls down the halls attired in his leather jacket. The leather look proved to be popular among a section of students. 71 Fashions FOR THREE DAYS STUDENTS GOT THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE WHAT IT WAS LIKE TO RUN A MODEL UN by Suzanne Willis he seventh annual ODU Model UN was held February 2-4. The delegates stayed at the Holiday Inn Scope for the duration of the con¬ vention. Each school was assigned countries based on the number of participants they sent. This year Phoebus repre¬ sented two countries — Thailand and Nigeria. Members of the Thailand delegation included Danny Miller, Larry Cox, Courtney McNair, Chris Malloy, Mary Mackin, and Namphon Saendguenchai. The Nigeria delegation included John Thomas, Janet Watt, Stephanie Gray, Doug Davis, Michelle Dixon and Suzanne Willis. Each delegation was divided into three parts: Concurrent General As¬ sembly, Economic Social and Special Political. The Concurrent General Assembly included Chris, Mary, Janet and John. In this committee, they listened to and made general policy statements. They discussed decolonization and UNC¬ TAD. The Eco-Soc Committee included Danny, Courtney, Michelle and Su¬ zanne. This committee tried to offer so¬ lutions to the world economic and so¬ cial problems. This year they dealt with world hunger, refugees, polution of the water way, desertification and deforestation. Special Political delegates included Namphon, Larry, Stephanie, and Doug. This committee worked on the major political problems of the world. They dealt with the problems of Chad, Nam- bia, Antarcticia, civil aviation, outer space, and problems in the Middle East. As Stephanie put it, “It was a reward¬ ing, but frustrating experience.” Stephanie Gray, Michelle Dixon, Doug Davis, Su¬ zanne Willis and Janet Watt attend the banquet which was held the final night. They were mem¬ bers of the Nigeria delegation. This is a view of the Board of Officers for the whole convention. Students from area schools were represented at the convention and the offi¬ cers were ODU students. 2 Model UN Namphon Saendguenchai and Stephanie Gray work on resolutions in a Special Political Com¬ mittee meeting. They were members of the Nige¬ ria delegation. Both are sophomores and hope to return for another session next year. Mary Mackin and Chris Malloy look over resolu¬ tions during a committee meeting of the Concur¬ rent General Assembly. Mary ana Chris are both Juniors and this was their first experience at the Model UN meetings. 73 Model UN TWICE A YEAR STUDENTS MUST ENDURE THE RIGORS OF EXAMS In an effort to find out what students think about exams, the following ques¬ tions were asked. WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT EX¬ AMS? Shandra Fields: “They bring the pupil’s semester average down in some in¬ stances and they really don’t show how much a student has learned because many of the teachers teach at their own pace and then try to ‘cram’ the informa¬ tion into the students’ minds the last few weeks of the semester.” Julie Antolick: “Although exams are nerve-wracking, I think that they are a good idea because they reinforce the semester’s information. I think I would remember less of what is covered if it weren’t for exams.” Monique Winston: “I think exams are a good idea, however, I would agree more on just having a big nine-week test.” Helen Sadler: “I don’t mind the exams themselves, but I do not like the fact that the exams are standardized throughout the city. All teachers don’t teach the same way.” Tina Joyner: “I feel exams are good in a way, but they’re not really fair because there usually seems to be something on it which you never learned. That does lower your grade and make you feel discouraged.” Brenda Furgal: “Exams are two-hour semesters that leave your mind ex¬ hausted.” DO YOU SPEND MUCH TIME STUDY¬ ING FOR EXAMS?” Teresa Russell: “Yes I do spend a lot of time studying. Although I do spend more time on some than others. Some¬ times it doesn’t matter whether you study or not. You get the exam and some of the questions you get you don’t remember ever seeing. This could real¬ ly discourage a person. But, what can you do — the exams count one-fifth of your grade. In some cases this could help or hurt a person.” Brenda Furgal: “Sure, a whole hour be¬ fore the exam and fifteen minutes the night before.” Monique Winston: “No. I think that studying a lot leads to confusion. If you pack everything in while it is taught, then you do not have to spend much time on studying.” Helen Sadler: “Depends on the exams!” Sophomore lames Timmons liked studying in the library where there is some peace and quiet. Here, he prepares himself for Mr. Boyd’s history exam. Rick Cranfill, Todd Caldwell, and Keith Phillips find a little time to study while eating luncn. Exams are standardized throughout the city and last for two hours. 74 Exams Kellie Flint, and Melissa Cruz spent their lunch hour studying in Mrs. Fraser ' s room for their Ju¬ nior English exam. Exams counted one-fifth of the grade for the semester. Sometimes studying for exams can be tiring. Lena Vines takes a moment to rest as Jackie Brown looks over “Macbeth” in preparation for their English exam. Ti ASSISTANT PRINCIPALS: Mr. Robert H.

Neither is new to the Hampton School System but this is a first for Mrs. Williams as an administrator. Mrs. Williams taught government at Pembroke High for nine years and was the SCA sponsor. Mr. Washington be¬ gan his career in Lawrenceville, Virgin¬ ia, teaching social studies and coaching football and basketball. He then taught physical education at Syms, became as¬ sistant principal at Thorpe, and then principal at Syms and Spratley. Feeling welcome and proud to be here, both Mr. Washington and Mrs. Williams enjoyed the friendliness. Mrs. Williams would like to further expand the computer program, while Mr. Washington said he would like to know each student as an individual and con¬ tribute to their success. After the first nine week grading period, the Li¬ brary staff held a reception honoring students with all A’s and B’s. Certificates were given and refreshments were served. Mr. Clayton Washing¬ ton hands a certificate to Lori Lawwill as Mrs. Ashby Williams and Mrs. Martha Woods look on. Mr. Clayton Washington had a chance to meet and talk with some parents at the Math Honor Society induction ceremony. Mr. Washington came to us from Spratley Junior High where he served as principal. 77 Administration HISTORY DEPARTMENT: Front Row—Mr. Paul Rizzo, Mrs. Carol Riley, Miss Bonnie Tingle.

Each department was required to become ac¬ quainted with the school computers. IT LOOKS LIKE THE TEACHERS ARE TRYING TO BECOME WHIZ KIDS O ne of the three main school goals was to in crease the computer lit¬ eracy of both students and teach¬ ers. Math teachers were required to de¬ vote one week of their teaching time to introduce the history of the computer and how to operate it to their classes. Interest in computers increased so much among the faculty that a course in programming was introduced after school for interested teachers. The class was quickly filled and for a brief time each Wednesday afternoon teach¬ ers became students. Knowledge of computers varied greatly in the class as some had taken classes before and some had never turned on a computer before. Mrs. Barbara Thomas, teacher of the course replied, “The response from our school was so overwhelming that we had to limit the course to eighteen of our teachers.” The course was to be available to any teacher in the city, but was quickly filled by Phoebus teach¬ ers. Reactions to the class were favor¬ able. Mrs. Sylvia Thomas, English teacher, replied, “I have overcome my computer anxiety. Before this course I felt overwhelmed, intimitated by com¬ puters. This class had also given me a chance to know my co-workers better.” Foreign language teacher Julia Turner said, “I must be understanding some¬ thing about computers now, since I can now ask an intelligent question about them.” The teachers were required to write and trace programs. Who knows, may¬ be they will be able to catch up with all the computer whiz kids. 79 Faculty SCIENCE DEPARTMENT: Front Row—Mrs. Suzanne Simms. Mrs. Anne Tucker, Mrs. Mary Berg.

Mr. Boyd had Mrs. Joanne Via’s math classes the first nine weeks. Mr. Jim Sherrard demonstrates the catenary shape of a raw egg by standing on it. This was one of many demonstrations he showed his Physics class. vSS? CRUSH AN EGG W ho said the chicken isn’t very smart? A chicken egg has a catenary shape which enables it to support a tremendous weight. “That same shape is used in the con¬ struction of bridges and arches,” re¬ plied Mr. Jim Sherrard. On Tuesdays and Thursdays Mr. Sherrard visits ele¬ mentary schools giving science demon¬ strations. “It’s a nice change of pace” he said. “The kids are so enthusiastic—if I ask for a piece of paper I get one from each child. If I ask a question, every hand goes up—it doesn’t make any dif¬ ference if they know the answer.” “These demonstrations are to hope¬ fully get elementary students more in¬ volved in science. If we can get them more inquisitive and not stifle their imagination, we can develop some good, creative thinkers,” commented Mr. Sherrard. “It has been great fun for me, and I wish every secondary teacher had the opportunity to do this” he concluded. 81 Faculty SPECIAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT: Front Row — Mrs. Donna Winter, Mrs. Sonia Smith, Mrs. Suzanne Gabriel.

Mrs. Harris offered the course to any student in¬ terested in improving their reading and compre¬ hension level. MINI SPEED READING C T 1 T T T7 NT HT Q COURSE OFFERED TO O 1 LJ 1 O by Elyzabeth Soltys F or the second year, Mrs. Barbara Harris offered a mini-speeding class after students expressed their desire to improve their reading and comprehension rates to help their SAT scores. The course was held for approximately one month from 7:45 to 8:15 each morning and was available to anyone interested. While in the course, students spent five minutes doing “eye exercises” to strengthen the muscles of the eyes thus enabling students to read faster. The remainder of the time was used to do reading assignments. Mrs. Harris en¬ couraged the students to utilize their speed-reading abilities in school as well as on the PSAT’s and SAT’s. Students who signed up for the course were invited to a breakfast ban¬ quet in their honor. At the banquet, the students who attended the class for the entire month received certificates of completion. 83 Faculty • ' GpJ • ' Uj- ' tj- v e tv 6 ©T es ; v a ete l e s o e ° e td° up otv cA wete 6 .ntf 5 ®’ .V « tv 5 ‘“’ vC v u ' Ae ev C N c ° tS ee s V 0 e ? d 10 N v t V e. ?f ° s ' 0 V V oT C C I rC T s etv . e d 10 x x ° y e ° ■ js tfV 1 „ e tv° l •9 a G ‘ v° x de s s During the Christmas band and choral presentation, the foreign lan¬ guage classes were allowed to sing their versions of “Jingle Bells” in their appropriate languages.

William Parker and Minnetta Wright take aim at the target at the 50 ft. small bore range at the Hampton Institute ROTC rifle range. Qualifying with a rifle is a part of the ROTC curriculum. 86 ROTC PASS IN REVIEW MGySgt Edward Baines: “How long have you had this hat?” Jeff Brown: “Two years, Sir.” MGySgt Baines: “When was the last time it was washed?” Jeff Brown: “A year ago, Sir.” T his is part ot tne question and an¬ swer session that takes place when the ROTC classes are in¬ spected in full uniform each Wednes¬ day. Students are expected to be well groomed, have their shoes and boots highly shined and their uniforms must conform to the standards set up by their instructors. Students in the program study mili¬ tary history, qualify on the rifle range, spend many hours drilling and take a one week trip to a Marine Corps train¬ ing base. From classroom instruction to per¬ forming in parades, the ROTC program offers students an insight into the mili¬ tary, should they decide to either enlist or enroll in a ROTC program in college. Jeff Brown, Joe Weis , Antonio Blackley, Dwight Harrison, Paul Fequiere, Rodderick Moore, and William Blair draw their swords at a staff re¬ hearsal for the upcoming football homecoming. The staff presented the court to the student body at halftime of the Menchville game. MGySgt Edward Baines inspects Jeff Brown as Efrem Chandler looks on. Uniforms were worn each Wednesday and inspections during those days frequently took place. 87 ROTC PREPARE THE MENU, MAKE THE FOOD, SET THE TABLE, CLEAN UP — ALL THIS GOES INTO FOOD SERVICE by Elizabeth Soltys I n the food service class students learn all about nutrition and prepar¬ ing food. The students work for the Blue Phantom Inn, a restaurant for the administration. Students are in charge of preparing the menu and making meals. This service allows the students to get the feel of “the real world.” Positive Student Influence (PSI) is a course of¬ fered to a small group of seniors. In PSI the stu¬ dents do a variety of things such as: making clothes out of newspaper, to see who has the most creative design and to teach students how to work as a team; having a “secret pal” for a week, where a person has to do something special for him everyday; and acting out skits to show their values. Dale Williams, Jeneen Cotton and Jim Watson discuss their plans for the weekend. Lyndy Conner discusses her plans with Jeanne Glabus. Tony McEachin, Becky Windsor, and Regina San- tiful clean up after a day of preparing meals. They were students in the food service class. O m 83 Food Service—PSI Charlene Richardson, Lynette Montanz and Vic¬ toria Berkeley take the children of the Sugar and Spice Nursery School trick or treating through¬ out the school. The class is a two year course in which juniors and seniors can participate. Tonia Fogget and Brenda Outlaw prepare their outfits which were a requirement for the Home Economics curriculum. The course taught stu¬ dents how to do basic household chores. 89 Practical Arts PE CLASSES AND STUDENTS JOIN TO DANCE FOR HEART by Patricia Soltys A long with other changes, the Physical Education Department has done more than just teach. The first Dance for Heart competition was held on November 23, 1983. The “It was a lot of fun and for a very good cause.” —Courtney McNair dance was sponsored by the Physical Education Department and endorsed by the American Heart Association. Twenty-nine students participated in the event and raised a total of $491. Students who participated and raised thirty-five to seventy-nine dollars re- cieved a T-shirt and leg warmers. Courtney McNair, a participant in the dance “felt that it was a lot of fun and for a very good cause.” The top two fund raisers were Colesta Boals and Shelly Hodges. Miss Reatha Montgomery, the orga¬ nizer of the event “was pleased with the response of the students.” She also commented that “students here are heart warming and caring.” Jeff Barnes runs the shuttle relay as part of the physical fitness test. PE courses have been changed from a nine week period to a semester. PE courses provide students with an opportunity to try new sports and stay in shape. 90 PE Twenty nine students put on their dancing shoes for the first Dance of Heart Marathon, earning a total of $491. The dance was held during school on November 23 and was a fund raising project for the American Heart Association. Theresa Payne, Lynda Carter, Brian Staton, Mike Kane and Mike Parise do warm-up exercises in their Typing I class. Many students take business courses ana there is a job program available for advanced business students who may desire a job in the business field. 91 Business Lori Lawwill is shown discussing her project which was the Declaration of Independence. She made a model of In¬ dependence Hall. Listening to her are Vanessa Shaw and Tami Welch. In the background are Lynn Parker and Todd Arguello, while Gene Martin, Shelia Banks, Rush Cole, and Tracey Stanius listen from the front. Brian Cummings shows his findings of the thirteen British colonies to the class. The projects were a part of Mr. Harold Watson’s American History class and were done to make the topic more real. 92 Social Studies ENDLESS OPPORTUNITIES EXIST FOR THOSE INTERESTED IN SCIENCE by Philip Hunt S tudents have an excellent oppor¬ tunity to learn from the offerings of the science classes. “The oppor¬ tunities are endless,” said the chemis¬ try teacher, Mr. Charles Norman. He also feels that if students are to work up to their potential, they must be willing to devote time and work to this field of study. Mr. Norman states, “Phoebus has many good science teachers willing to help the students.” Mr. Norman’s chemistry classes en¬ joy writing computer programs appli¬ cable to chemistry, doing experiments, and watching Mr. Norman attempt demonstrations. Every year many students enter their science projects in a local science fair. Students with the most outstanding projects apply for admittance into the Virginia Academy of Science (VJAS), a prestigious event in which students orally describe their projects to science professors. Last year five students re¬ presented Phoebus at VJAS. “This speaks well for the students and the science department as a whole, consid¬ ering only twenty students are selected for each category from the state,” com¬ mented Mr. Norman. The science curriculum offers a unique course titled Science Seminar. This is an advanced course of the inde¬ pendent study nature in which stu¬ dents research a particular area of in¬ terest and write a paper on their find¬ ings. A science club has also been started under the direction of Mrs. Mary Berg. This club goes on science field trips and invites guest speakers who share with this group their science knowl¬ edge. Those students that are willing to put forth a little extra effort will learn a great deal in their science classes and from their science teachers. Quoc Tran, Tim Baxter, Percy Phillips, and Anna Taylor perform one of many experiments in their Chemistry class. Experiments help students in¬ vestigate many of the lessons they have learned and thus reinforce their learning. 93 Science A select group of students look on as Michael Parrent performs. The library invited Mr. Par- rent to visit and perform. He came as a part of National Library Week. Michael Parrent, a nationally acclaimed sto¬ ryteller visits the student body. Here, we have Mr. Parrent dramatizing one of his works. 94 Library HOT OFF THE PRESS — GET YOUR COPY OF THE by Cherie Furlow T he newspaper staff was composed of eleven writers who were ad¬ vised by Mrs. Linda Smith. They strove to get the best news stories and scoops to suit the public. The Phantasm, a student produced paper, was published five times throughout the year at a cost of 25 t per issue. The paper featured many inter¬ esting and involved material. Some of the regular features were the editori¬ als, the who’s who page, and sports. Journalism is part of the Enlgish cur¬ riculum and students receive an elec¬ tive credit for producing the paper. Sonya McIntyre works to meet the deadline for the Phantasm. The newspaper staff members had to write articles and work on their assigned pages. Tammy Welch sells a newspaper to Shelly Hodges. In the background, Shelly Sutton lets Leslie Stewart glance over a paper while attempt¬ ing a sale. 95 Phantasm AFTER MANY YEARS fOR CHANGE by Patricia Soltys T he new English curriculum is bet¬ ter than the English curriculum of previous years. It provides the students with an opportunity to learn a variety of subjects, instead of just limit¬ ing the English course to two subjects of the students choice. Besides providing the students with an opportunity to expand their English knowledge, the classes are taught by grade level “which provides students of each grade level an opportunity to equally compete with each other,” said Elizabeth Soltys. Like all new courses, only time will determine if they are truly effective. It should prove to be a worthwhile course because “it provides a more sta¬ ble form of educating students in the English language, literature, and gram¬ mar usage,” commented David Fah- renkrug. Richard Bryer and Roger Barnes discuss an up¬ coming class project. They are in Mrs. Brenda Fraser’s class and were preparing themselves for a small skit presentation. 96 English Wanda Bailey, Tim Baxter and Angela Davis read their Christmas poems that they composed for Mrs. Barbara Griffin’s class. Their readings were taped and shown on Channel 29, the Hampton School System’s station. Seniors Shawn DaCosta, Carolyn Phillips, Perry Davis, Steve Johnson and Rodney Monk interpret the theme of a poem by acting it out in a skit. They were in Mrs. Brenda Fraser’s fifth period class. 97 Englisn BAND AND CHORUS A TTTQTr COMBINE TO MAKE OWwJJ lVlUOlvj ££ r y three years here in the | choral program have been • - good ones. This year espe¬ cially, we’ve really worked hard in small vocal ensemble in hopes of doing well in the Mid-Atlantic, festival,” said Floyd Showalter. Mixed chorus, a capella, and small vocal ensemble are the classes offered in the choral department. The mixed chorus is open to any student while tryouts are required to get in a capella and the small vocal ensemble. Fourteen students, LaFawn Davis, Michelle Mills, Leslie Wellons, Casan- dra Tynes, Leslie Stewart, Jeanette Showalter, Floyd Showalter, Martin Jennings, Rod Hudson, Michael Brown, Keith King, Robbie Lloyd, Steve John¬ son, and David Quinn, were named to the District VIII Regional Chorus. These students were individually re¬ quired to sing a prepared piece before two judges. The choral department along with the band took their spring trip to Ossi¬ ning, New York as part of an exchange program with Ossining High School. Each school performed for the other and the members spent the nights with their host families. Members of the different choral groups can be heard at various times around school performing and rehears¬ ing. Sheri Mitzel, Lynn Usry and Monique Winston perform at half-time during the Bethel football game. The band performed for each of the home games during the football season. 98 Band James Williams plays his tuba during the Christ¬ mas concert performed before the student body. James has been a member of the band the past three years. He is also a member of the All-City band. Steve Johnson, Leslie Stewart, Michael Brown, Wanda Bailey, Lynda Conner, Teresa Payne, Mi¬ chelle Mills, Keith King, Cassandra Tynes, Floyd Showalter, Robby Lloyd, LaFawn Davis, Rod Hudson, and Mona Stensrud, members of the Soundation Sensation, perform at the Christmas assembly to the student body. It proved to be a busy day for the singers. After the assembly, they went caroling throughout the school and then they went and made their eighth appearance on Conversation. The show was aired Christmas Day on TV Channel 13. MAJORETTES: Stephanie Young, Linda Plea¬ sants At halftime of the Bethel game the band cleared the field when an unpleasant odor filled the air. Kenny Snyder and Scott Robert suspect the smell to be coming from the tuba. Kenny Snyder carefully lifts the tuba as Scott Robert checks to see what seems to be coming from it. It’s the Bethel Bruin! James Williams holds the Bruin for all to see as Scott Robert collapses on the ground. Those two, along with Kenny Snyder and the band, poked fun at Bethel during half- time of the game. The skit was an unusual sur¬ prise for the spectators who were used to the hand playing songs at halftime. 99 Chorus Dawn Chandonnet and Theresa Payne act out a short skit in Madame Sandra Durr’s French II class. In the skit, Theresa is conducting a man on the street interview. Wanda Bailey and Ned Robertson perform a news broadcast in their French II class. The play is an important part of the curriculum as it gives students a chance to use their knowledge. 100 Foreign Language ARCHITECTUR AL R AjA ' I N G BUILDING HOUSES by Patricia Soltys u r � t hen I sit down and draw, that’s all I’m thinking of. It puts my mind at ease and I can really get into it. It’s a good way to start the day.” replied Rush Cole. Many of Mr. Thompson’s students feel the same way about his classes. Architectual Drawing and Engineer¬ ing Drawing are only two of the several Industrial Arts classes offered. Archi¬ tectual drawing provides students with the opportunity to learn about the prin¬ ciples of architecture and related draft¬ ing techniques. Engineering Drawing gives students the opportunity to be¬ come familiar with the graphic lan¬ guage of industry for engineers, manu¬ facturers and technicians. It also allows the students to experience drawing problems and techniques. The classes are also taught in an un¬ usual manner providing the students with special priviledges. One of the pri- viledges is having an assignment given with no set due date, as long as it is completed before the end of the nine weeks. “It is not a duty to come to my architectual drawing class, it is a privi- ledge and an honor.” said Doug Davis. “This class is the best part of the day and out of all my years of schooling, I’ve never looked forward to going to class until this one,” said Gene Par- anuk. Mr. John McDaniel shows his students in Graphic Communications the operation of the printing machine. Mr. McDaniel spends much of his time printing material for school and the school sys¬ tem. Gene Paranuk works on his house plans in his Drawing class. The plans for a house is one of the projects the students were required to finish for the first nine week period of school. 4 101 Practical Arts THE PENINSULA VO-TECH CENTER OFFERS INSTRUCTION TO STUDENTS INTERESTED IN LEARNING f you are interested in programs ranging from Air Conditioning to Welding, then Vo-Tech may be for you. The school is located off Aberdeen Road near the Industrial Park and of¬ fers diversified programs that develop skills, abilities, work habits and knowl¬ edge. Courses offered at the center are determined by student interest. The course carries 3 credit hours and stu¬ dents attend classes at their high school and are then bused to the center. Vo-Tech offers a two-year course for students not planning to continue their education by entering college. These courses at Vo-Tech give the student the ability to enter the labor force upon graduation. A TRADE Mrs. Sonia Smith, resource person at Phoebus, commented that, “It offers vocational skills for students who get both practical skills as well as theory. The teachers at the Vo-Tech center are pleasant and are truly concerned about their students. The students appear to be interested because they are actively involved in their chosen area.” Students are expected to know what area they wish to become involved, but if they find difficulty in that area, they are counseled and are possibly changed to a different area. The pro¬ gram offers a vital alternative for stu¬ dents who wish to join the labor force after graduation. Ray Sloan works in the advanced metal shop at Vo-Tech. Ray is a Senior and is learning to oper¬ ate the various machines. Exams are a trying time for most students. Exams in Hampton are city-wide and students at each school take the same exam. Here, Pre-Calculus students endure the rigors of a two-hour exam. 102 Math—Vo-Tech Senior Scott Parks turns a part on the engine lathe in his Machine Shop class. Students learn the various machines they will be using if they get a job after high school and get valuable expe¬ rience with practice. Nancy Parham, Roberta Mosley and Lauri Barth- elmes go over the parts of the body using a model. They are in the Health Services class and hope to pursue a career in a health-related area. If you like working with wood, then carpentry may be a job area worth looking into. Rick Shep¬ herd is enrolled in Carpentry at Vo-Tech and is shown laying out his wood project. Rick, a Junior, is in his first year of what will be a two-year course. 103 Vo-Tech , iff $ $ c ° ' ot «0 V ?« v ° ° °% V®!vV e 6 t cN’ o - v V e ° e ' Jv 0 ° e t e tot c ° VV vV cO°’V V% v 0 -cA .- X° S ., s V o V V ' v v ° jv ' ii ' S° $v Simon Toliver sweeps right end on a quarterback keeper early in the game against Warwick.

There wasn’t time for any¬ thing else once I dedicated my life to cheerleading. Since the seventh grade, my summer vacations have been shortened because it is necessary to stay in town to attend cheering practice. During the summer the cheerleaders practice three days a week to prepare for summer camp. After camp we usually enter a competi¬ tion so that we can show the public just how good we are. After school begins I have to be a wizard to attend band and choir rehearsals, Key Club and S.C.A. meetings, maintain a 3.3 average, keep a boyfriend and cheer. In fact much of the free time is spent doing something per¬ taining to school, and my so¬ cial life lacks severely. Three days a week, I have cheering practice. There is little time to socialize because I have to get dressed out for practice. Practice consists of pep talks, stretching, perfecting routines, dances, cheers, chants, and creating new routines. As a captain, I am supposed to set an example for the other girls and this can be very difficult. Many times I have to bite my tongue. It is hard not to get angry when a girl has to con¬ stantly leave practice early to get to work on time, or when someone can’t seem to sharpen her movements. Pa¬ tience is very important. During football season our games are played on Friday nights, Saturday afternoons and evenings. It is always exciting to cheer, especially the home games when we have our band and enthusi¬ astic majorettes and flag twirlers backing us up. It really doesn’t phase me when I am teased by stu¬ dents at other schools about losing a game as long as the girls on the squad cheered wholeheartedly, I feel great. Perhaps one of the reasons for this is because the cheer¬ leaders are very close to the football and basketball play¬ ers. We are like a family, and we appreciate each other for what we are. And so ends the pom-pom routine at halftime of the Ferguson football game. Every now and then the cheerleaders perform a coordinated dance routine which is practiced each day after school for two weeks to insure perfection. Rena White, Karen Turner and Kris¬ tina Carnegie find something to cheer about during the Warwick game. This is Rena’s first year on the squad while Kristina and Karen have been members for two years. 106 Varsity Cheerleaders Karen Turner checks herself out be¬ fore having to cheer in front of the crowd at the Kecoughtan basketball game. This was the first basketball game of the season and Lyndy Con¬ ner is helping to insure that Karen looks her best. The squad got involved in the paint¬ ing of posters in the hopes that this would help student spirit and get students to come to the games. Shanda Crawford and Pam Porter paint signs during their sixth period as part of the effort to let students know about the upcoming game. 107 Varsity Cheerleaders Angie Davis, Pam Porter, Rhonda McGee, Terry Dysick show the stu¬ dent body just what “Hard Times” really are at the basketball home¬ coming pep rally. It was just a Thriller. Already upset because the team was losing, Leslie Stewart got even more ferocious when the referee made a bad call. Varsity Cheerleaders: Pam Porter, Michelle Brown, Rhonda Magee, Shimel Gupton, Terri Dysick, Angie Davis, Kristina Carnegie, Shelly Sutton, Leslie Stewart, Karen Turner. 108 Varsity Cheerleaders “CHEERLEADING SHAPES AND MOLDS YOUR PERSONALITY -Karen Turner- E ach year midway through basketball sea¬ son I feel like quitting the squad. Band, church, and cheerleading begin to interfere with my social life, my grades are temporarily neglected, and I grumble that cheering isn’t worth it. Ironically each April when I hear the announcements for tryouts, I change my mind, try out, and make the squad. I guess I do this because cheerleading is a part of me. I enjoy all sports and when¬ ever I see a game, whether on television or live, I cheer for my favorite team. I can’t help yelling, or jumping while watching a game; after five years of cheering it be¬ comes quite natural. When I began cheering at Spratley, I did so because I wanted to get in the games free, but now I realize that cheerleading is a sport — a year round sport. Cheer- leading shapes and molds your personality — it builds leadership qualities. I am certain that I wouldn’t be as outspoken and responsible if it hadn’t been for cheerlead¬ ing and the guidance of my sponsors. Shanda Crawford, Michelle Brown, Kristina Carnegie and Wanda Bailey cheer for the Football team during the game with Warwick. Unfortu¬ nately, the team lost to the highly regarded Raiders. The cheerleaders formed a pyramid for their special attraction during the basketball homecoming. After forming the pyramid, they col¬ lapsed the pyramid to the surprise of everyone. 109 Varsity Cheerleaders ALL THE PRACTICE T OMP QT? A COM THEY DO MAKES FOR A LU1 VJ uJjAuUl Wanda Hodge, Penny Peoples, Tra¬ cy Muscar, Lisa Coleman and Shawn Williams stand in disbelief as Warwick defeated the JV Football Team in their second game of the season. Warwick scored a 7-0 win over the Phantoms in what was to turn out to be a long season for the team. P ractices, pom-pom rou¬ tines and pep cheers be¬ gan early for the junior varsity cheerleaders, whose tryouts began immediately following the spring break last year. A clinic was spon¬ sored by the veteran varsity cheerleaders in which the girls learned cheers, chants and jumps. They were also given tips on techniques for the effective execution of these movements. Judging was finally held and ten spirited rising sophomores were chosen to the squad. They soon found cheerlead¬ ing to be a year-round un¬ dertaking. The cheerleaders prac¬ ticed twice a week during the summer in preparation for a National Cheerleader Association camp at Old Do- minion University. The camp was held from August 2-5, and the cheerleaders did an outstanding job against sixty squads from across the state. Throughout the school year, the girls practiced after school to prepare for the football and basketball games. During football sea¬ son, the girls cheered for the JV game on Saturday morn¬ ings as well as backing up the Varsity squad at their games. Basketball season proved just as exhausting, with two games a week. The year, which began as a learn¬ ing experience for the soph¬ omores had turned them into experienced cheer¬ leaders with a feel for the sport. Although the year was a prosperous one, the girls ad¬ mitted that it was not always easy. Diane Williams summed it up by saying, “al¬ though we had our ups and downs, we stayed with the team no matter what.” — Rhonda Magee — 110 JV Cheerleaders The squad cheered on Saturdays at ten in the morning for the JV games. Here, they show their spirit in hopes of a win against Warwick. Penny Peoples and Wanda Hodge appear intense as a member of the girls’ basketball team goes to the foul line. The JV Cheerleaders cheer for the JV basketball game and half of the girls’ game. Lisa Coleman, Penny Peoples, Wan¬ da Hodge and Tanya Christian cheer the team on against archrival Kecoughtan. The games started promptly at 4:30 and were followed by the girls’ and varsity games. JV Cheerleaders: Front Row — Virginia Kim, Nikki Jackson, Tracy Muscar, Lisa Coleman, Minkie Williams. Back Row — Shawn Williams, Penny Peoples, Wanda Hodge, Tanya Christian, Katrina Gilchrist, Sharon Thornton. 111 JV Cheerleaders -SE? NOTHING COMES EASY by John Thomas A n impressive showing against Bethel and a lopsided victory over Denbigh, highlighted this year’s football season. Although not winning as many times as wanted, the team made every game ex¬ citing. Senior, Steve Johnson dazzled the fans with many long runs and returns. Un¬ fortunately, quite a few of those runs were called back because of penalties. Good Quarterback Simon Toliver turns the corner against Hampton in the game won by Hampton. Simon, only a junior, gained much valuable ex- E erience as the starting quarter- ack. Leatiing above Raider defenders, Bobby Willis makes a successful catch. Bobby also played defensive back. 112 Varsity Football performances and bad mis¬ takes seemed to characterize this year’s campaign. Every time something good hap¬ pened, fate reminded every¬ one that nothing is easy. Many outstanding indi¬ vidual efforts were the high point of a see-saw season that had an unfortunate number of low points. Senior defensive back, Dominic Walton wasted no time showing why he was so heavily recruited by col¬ leges by picking off two passes against Kecoughtan in the first game. “The sea¬ son wasn’t as rewarding as we expected in the begin¬ ning but even though our re¬ cord didn’t show it we all gave 100 percent,” com¬ mented Dominic about each individual’s dedication. Chris Coleman, defensive linebacker, was instrumen¬ tal in 3 interceptions, two of them being returned for touchdowns. Todd Lattimore’s tena¬ cious play on the line, Nor¬ man Cunningham’s efforts as a tight end, Steve Thomp¬ son’s powerful runs, and spirited performances by many others gave the fans much to cheer about all sea¬ son. Steve Johnson turns the corner in the game with Warwick at Todd Sta¬ dium. Steve was the teams leading pass receiver and kick-off and punt returner. Dragging down a Denbigh Patriot senior defensive back Dominic Wal¬ ton, had a successful season. Domi¬ nic was an honorable mention All- District defensive back.

Tony McEachin makes a difficult eaten over his Kecoughtan defend¬ er. Although it was a gain of 12 yards the Pnantoms were unable to score on that drive. Todd Lattimore and Earl Kirkindall attempted to block a Warwick pass on 3rd down and 7 yards to go. The pass fell incomplete and the Raiders were forced to punt. 14 Varsity Football PLAYING IN GAMES IS THE EASY PART by Dominic Walton F ootball is a sport of hard-knocks and bruises. It takes a great deal of time and energy. Peo¬ ple only view the final pro¬ cess of this sport. Behind the scores there are things that eyes can’t even behold. Conditioning begins in June, with running, calis¬ thenics, and other various drills. Then that dreadful day rolls around called Au¬ gust 10th. That’s when the men are separated from the boys. For the next three and a half to four months the players become the prop¬ erty of PHOEBUS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL. Practicing twice a day, six days a week, is the easy part. The hard part comes in put¬ ting on the same sweaty, smelly practice uniform. Some days a stuffed up nose would help. The locker room has a scent that can’t be ex¬ plained. But, I will say, that a skunk may find it pleasing. On the practice field there is a great deal of hitting and pain. Being yelled at be¬ comes a way of life. Football is time consum¬ ing. It takes a great deal of skill, and determination. Will power is a good word to describe what it takes to play the game. A kick in the butt, forearm to the side and head and being knocked to the ground are some of the things a player must endure. In the end it is good to look back and see the team’s pro¬ gress. Giving up is the easy way out, but to those who last through the season comes a feeling that they gave their all for Phoebus High School. Chris Coleman (76) and Dominic Walton prepare to take on War¬ wick’s offensive attack. The Raiders picked up 5 yards but were unable to capture a first down. Tony Ebron runs up the hole against the Bethel defenders. With success¬ ful blocking from his teammates, he picked up a first down. Phoebus eventually lost 9-7. 115 Varsity Football DESPITE THEIR RECORD THEY WERE EAGER TO LEARN by Chris Coleman W hen August 10 rolled around and the sea¬ son began, there were but a few players at practice. Because of the limited number of person¬ nel, the first days of practice were a little unsuccessful. As the week progressed and more players attended prac¬ tice, they began to learn the fundamentals of the game. Even though the team was young and lacked experi¬ ence, they were eager to learn. The team was under the direction of new coach, Ben¬ jamin Johnson, who worked with the players to improve their fundamental skills. Al¬ though the team improved as the season progressed, they were unable to capture a victorious season. The attitude of the players was very positive, as they constantly helped each oth¬ er on the field and off. Pat Coleman said, “I felt that if the team had not kept a posi¬ tive attitude, then we would have been finished before we started.” Assistant Coach Mike Brown said, “Despite the inability to win, the team was constantly striving to improve.” The team finished the sea¬ son with a 1-7 record, but the record was no indication of the talent on the team. Brian Jackson, Ronnie Washington (33), Carlon Brown (41) close in on Warwick’s halfback during the 3rd quarter. Robert Williams (66) is coming in to help out on the tackle. Warwick won 7-0 as both defenses played well throughout the game. Scrambling to avoid tacklers, quar¬ terback Luther Thompson tries to complete a pass down the field. The pass was incomplete. 16 JV Football Charles Brown runs around the end on an option play, for a pick up of 5 yards. He was elected by the team as most valuable player. Luther Thompson attempts a pass that fell imcomplete as the line holds out the Warwick rush. Hillary Edwards (79), Johnny Walker (67) and Jimmy Ray DeBaun (65) block for Luther.

The Lady Phantoms, un¬ der the leadership of Laurel Baldwin and captains Cherie Furlow and Theresa Kinzie experienced a diffi¬ cult season. Due to overall court inex¬ perience, the girls did not fair well in district team competition. One of the highlights of the season Brenda Furgal and her Menchville opponent take a short break be¬ tween games. Brenda, a junior, com¬ peted this year for the first time. Coach Laurel Baldwin gives point¬ ers to Michelle Dickens during her match with her Menchville oppo¬ nent. Michelle played at the No. 6 position for the team. came against Denbigh. The match was tied at 4 and the number three doubles team of Michelle Dickens and Amy McDonald were play¬ ing for the team victory. Mi¬ chelle and Amy prevailed in straight sets 7-6, 7-6 to in¬ sure the only team win of the season. The Lady Phantoms, how¬ ever, were well represented in the district and regional tournaments. Seniors Cherie Furlow and Karen Shuler teamed up to get to the semi-finals in the district tournament. Cherie went on to become the district sin¬ gles runner-up, and ad¬ vanced to the regional tour¬ nament, where she lost in a tough second round match to Laura Shifflett of First Co¬ lonial. “The team had a lot of potential and we should have won more matches,” replied Cherie Furlow. “I was glad to participate in the Regional tournament, since this was my last year in high school competition.” Cherie Furlow returns her two- handed backhand against Mench- ville’s Sharon Hardwood. Cherie was runner-up in the district tour¬ nament. 118 Girls’ Tennis Theresa Kinzie hits a short ap¬ proach shot against Kecoughtan’s Denise Yangert. Theresa won in straight sets.

Fortunately Dale was not seriously in¬ jured. In fact, he went on to capture 5th place and more spectacularly 14th place in a tough State Championship field, earning him All State Honors. The entire cross-country team made a respectable showing this year under new coach, Toy Carpenter. They were victorious against Warwick and rival Kecoughtan. Another bright spot was the running of senior, Bren¬ da Outlaw. Brenda took 5th place in the regional meet and went on to state compe¬ tition. Dale Williams is only the second person in the school’s history to earn All- State Honors. Dale Williams: “As a whole, we did fairly well over the season. Inex¬ perience hurt us, but Coach Carpenter had us peak for the District Meet. I feel very fortunate that I was able to place 14th in the State Meet.” Cross-Country: Front Row—Michelle Leonard, Luther Parker, Dale Wil¬ liams, Brenda Outlaw, Joe Weis, Dean Rust, Yong Sam Richardson, Steve Galla. Back Row—Joe Parker, Darren Trice, Isaac Perry, Curtis Wampler, Donovan Wise, William London.

Maintaining contact with tne lead runners usu¬ ally insures a good finish for run¬ ners. Here, Furguson and Phoebus runners begin a 3.1 mile run. Fergu¬ son won the meet 32-23. The low score wins the meet. Dale Williams is far out in the lead at the 2 V 2 mile mark in the Ke- coughtan meet. Dale finished a suc¬ cessful season by placing 14th in the State Meet. Donovan Wise and Brenda Outlaw pass the 2 mile mark against Fergu¬ son. Brenda placed fifth in the Re¬ gional Meet at Mt. Thrashmore. William London showed promise early in the season, but an ankle in¬ jury hampered him throughout the season. He was also a starting guard on the basketball team. Yong Sam Richardson enjoyed a good race against Ferguson. This is Sam’s second year on the cross¬ country team. 121 Cross-Country Steve Whitehead putts on the prac¬ tice green before a round of golf. Steve, a junior, wins the second Lest golfer on the team. W. Scott Lee practices a bunker shot on the eighth hole of the Hampton course. Scott, a junior, was the low scorer for the team this year. FOR PAR GOLFERS AIM by Tami Welch P reviously a spring sport, golf is now a part of the fall line-up. The head coach, Mr. Newell, adds “The warmer weather makes it easier to practice unlike last year.” The team practiced everyday at Hampton Golf Course, play¬ ing nine holes or eighteen if time permitted. The team was composed of eight play¬ ers but only six can play in a match. The team participated in five matches against the eight other area high schools that make up the Peninsula district. W. Scott Lee was the medalist player for the team, shooting his best, an unbeat¬ able score of 69 at the Hamp¬ ton Golf Course, during the first match of the season. Like Scott, players shoot for two goals—to have an in¬ dividual low score, and to have a low team score. This is determined by the four lowest scores of the six play¬ ers. “Phoebus has got the best golfing trio” coach Newell said. W. Scott Lee was the lowest scorer with an aver¬ age of 77.25, Steve White- head was next with 84.25, followed by James Scott Lee with 92. W. Scott Lee along with Steve, represented Phoebus in the regional tournament held in Virginia Beach. Coach Newell said “This year’s team showed a lot of enthusiasm towards the game of golf.” He went on to say that “competition was keen and the low scores were on target.” Coach New¬ ell hopes next year’s team will be as good. He is looking forward to coaching the same team members as well as new ones. GOLF: Coach Richard Newell, Steve Whitehead, W. Scott Lee, James Shep¬ pard, Chris Laskowski. James Sheppard practices a long bunker shot on the Hampton course. The Hampton course was the team’s home course.

The win evened the team’s record after an open¬ ing game loss to Ferguson. 4 Boys’ Basketball IT WAS A SEASON OF UPS DOWNS D espite a disappointing season of close losses, the basketball team continued to improve. The high point of the season was the defeat of Hampton by 28 points. Although the team was relatively inexperienced with only four players that had returned from the pre¬ vious season, the fans had good things to say about the team. Shannon Sealy stated, “We had a good team this year, but we always seemed to lose at the end. The games were close. Next year we should have a good team, but too bad I won’t be here.” A varsity cheerleader said, “We had a good team. There was also poor officiating at the games.” When asked what he thought about the games, Bryon Wampler re¬ plied, “We had the spirit but it wasn’t enough.” And the game is underway. Tim Beckwith tips the ball to David Watts as Bobby Willis looks on. The tip started the game with Prince George which was won by the Phantoms 72-66. Paul Begansky, Tim Logan (30) and Tim Beckwith (32) fight for the re¬ bound with a Prince George player. This was Paul’s second season as a member of the varsity squad. Tim Logan ties up the game with Prince George as he converts from the free throw line. Phoebus went on to capture the game. Paul Be¬ gansky and Tim Beckwith prepare themselves for the rebound. 125 Boys’ Basketball TEAM FINISHES SEASON WITH T hirteen players started the season and nine finished. Poor grades (VHSL rules require that an athlete pass 4 subjects to be Simon Toliver gets an easy two against Hampton. Simon was one of the leading scorers on the team the first half of the season. NINE eligible to play) and disci¬ plinary action taken by Coach Killen reduced the team from its original cast of thirteen. Tim Beckwith drives the lane for two against Kecoughtan as Tim Lo¬ gan looks on. Tim transferred to Phoebus this year from Ke¬ coughtan, where he was All-Dis¬ trict as a sophomore. Bobby Willis, Kendall Fox (20), Tim Beckwith (32) and Paul Begansky (42) put up a sticky defense against Warwick. Warwick, ranked second in the District, took a close 60-57 win from the Phantoms. 126 Boys’ Basketball Tim Beckwith makes the score 17- 12 early in the game with Prince George. Phoebus went on to take a 72-66 decision. Tim Logan casts a short jumper from the side against Hampton. In one of the better games played by the team this season, Hampton was defeated by 28. This win avenged an earlier defeat by Hampton in the Ft. Eustis Christmas Tournament.

SEASON GIRLS’ BASKETBALL TEAM SPLITS by Theresa Kinzie A fter a poor start, the girls’ basketball team managed to pull to¬ gether and finish with a 10- 10 record. During the sea¬ son, the team worked hard, practicing nearly two and one half hours every day. The girls strove to better their record, even though they were outsized in every game.

Coach Tallon called Sharon one of the better guards in the league. Terri Williams fires up a short shot against Kecoughtan. Kecoughtan was one of the pre-season favorites in the league and they barely got by the Phantoms with a score of 49-48. Cassandra Tynes, Pauline McAden, Theresa Kinzie, Tiki Joyner, Teresa Miles, Sharon Freeman and Jerri London listen as Coach Mike Tallon goes over pre-game strategy before the game with Ferguson. Ferguson went on to defeat Phoebus by 60-44. 129 Girls’ Basketball LACK OF SIZE HAMPERS TEAM P hoebus was the small¬ est team in the district, but overcame this prob¬ lem with hustle. The team was coached by Mike Tallon and had only four returning seniors. Teresa Miles was the team’s leading re- bounder and scorer, Casan- dra Tynes was the second leading rebounder. Sharon Freeman and Chubbie Wil¬ liams accounted for nearly all the remainder of the points scored. The team fin¬ ished the season in fifth place. Chubbie Williams shoots from the corner against Hampton. Chubbie was a guard on the team. 130 Girls’ Basketball Teresa Miles goes to the floor for the ball as she gets tied up with a Ke- coughtan player. Team hustle kept the games close and Phoebus nearly came away with an upset. Cassandra Tynes shows excellent form on a jump shot as the Phan¬ toms went on to defeat Hampton 55- 49.

Besides being a team sport, it is the individual that advances past the District tournament to Regionals and State. With most sports dominated by big people, wrestling offers an opportu¬ nity for a person of any size and shape. With thirteen weight classes ranging from under 98 pounds to over 185 pounds, wrestling affords an opportunity in sports that few others can offer. Senior William Stanley was one of the more success¬ ful wrestlers. William placed second in Districts and third in Regionals at 132 pounds. “If you try real hard, and be physically as well as mental¬ ly in shape, you can come out on top. I feel this is the main reason why I’ve gone as far as I have,” said Wil¬ liam. Senior Glen Mingee, who came out for wrestling for the first time this year stat¬ ed, “It’s really too bad that wrestling is being oversha¬ dowed by most other sports. I feel that the athlete who succeeds in wrestling is su¬ perior to most other athletes who succeed in other sports. Wrestling is much more than going out on the mat and try¬ ing to beat up on your oppo¬ nent. It’s not Mid-Atlantic.” Second year wrestler Ken¬ ny Pierce agrees. “If people would only come out and watch, they would find out what wrestling is really like. I feel that the team did fairly well considering the lack of participation and support that we received.” Next year presents a new opportunity for students to get involved in sports. Coach Tyrone Jones is again look¬ ing forward to the opportu¬ nity of working with these students. Isaac Perry puts a headlock on his Tabb opponent. Isaac was later re¬ versed and lost the match. Isaac, a senior, came out for wrestling for the first time this year. William Stanley works to control his Tabb opponent. William went on to pin his man in the second period. William went 12-0 during the regu¬ lar season and finished second in the District meet and third in the Regional meet. Brad Waters tries for wrist control on his Tabb opponent. Brad, a se¬ nior, has been wrestling the last four years at Phoebus. 135 Wrestling IF NOTHING ELSE SWIMMING IS GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH by Kenny Mann he swimming team started its season in November and ended in February. Although the team did not have the greatest season, team mem¬ ber Tim Baxter made the statement, “We’ll definitely win one next year.” The team practiced Monday through Friday at either the Holland pool at Hampton In¬ stitute or the Hampton Com¬ munity Center. Meets were held at the Community Cen¬ ter with the exception of one meet at Williamsburg. A nor¬ mal practice consisted of stretching exercises before entering the water and a combination of laps, sprints, or individual practice on the following strokes — free¬ style, backstroke, breast¬ stroke or fly. Commented David Willis, “We didn’t lose because we were bad, we lost because of the lack of participants.” Team mem¬ bership was low which ac¬ counted for a less than memorable season accord¬ ing to some of the members, but there’s always another year. Jimmy Sackett and Andrew Fah- renkrug (lanes 1 and 3) leave the blocks while starting out in the fifty meter freestyle against Hampton. Although the team never won a meet, they received several first and second places in their events. Tony Russell swims the butterfly against Hampton. He took second place in several of the meets during the year. 136 Swimming The swim team cheers on Cheryl Fahrenkrug as she swims the breast stroke against Hampton. The team never lacked spirit even when they were behind by several points. Julie Glass waits to find her time after finishing first in the meet with Hampton. She finished first in all the meets except once when she finished second in the Kecoughtan meet. Steve Thompson does a front IV 2 dive as the team looks on. He fin¬ ished second in the meet.

When asked why they went out for baseball, here were some of the an¬ swers: “I want to try to earn a scholarship and be part of a winning tradition.” Tim Baxter. “It’s fun and I love being part of a team that wins.” Todd Arguello. “I need a varsity sport to go to the Naval Academy.” Larry Cox. “Personally, baseball has been my life. I have played for thirteen years and this year is going to be the deter¬ mining factor of whether or not it is going to continue.” Tim Casey. “For the past eleven years I have spent more than half of my spring and summer on a baseball field. For this rea¬ son, baseball has grown into me as I have grown. Frankly I can’t imagine a spring or summer without baseball.” Doug Davis. j ; ' ssm f Lfnai S, J a; Doug Davis delivers a pitch during batting practice early in the pre-sea¬ son. Doug was an All-District pitch¬ er last year for the Varsity. As a sophomore he was undefeated dur¬ ing the season. Doug also plays Le¬ gion ball during the summers. Paul Begansky squares around to bunt during a practice session. Paul, a senior, has played centerfield for the varsity the past two seasons. 147 Varsity Baseball HARD PRACTICES PAY OFF AS TEAM GETS OFF TO A FAST START By Doug Davis E ight returning starters from last year’s team formed the nucleus of this year’s squad. With prac¬ tice starting on February 20, the team worked on fielding, hitting, and pitching — the fundamentals of the game. After practicing six days a month, the Phantoms opened the season with Bru¬ ton, a AA team from the York River District. The team re¬ corded a 21-3 win with Mark Dunford getting the win. The Phantoms then played pre-season favorite Ke- coughtan and suffered a 2-1 setback. The next road trip was more productive as La¬ fayette fell 6-4 in extra in¬ nings. Mark Dunford got the win as the Phantoms moved into a tie for third in the Dis¬ trict standings. An 8-8 tie with Warwick and a 14-4 loss to Bethel brought the team record to 3-2-1. A healthy at¬ titude and a desire to win were some of the attributes of the team. The first half of the season found Phoebus in second place, one game be¬ hind league leading Hamp¬ ton. Mark Dunford warms up as Tim Ca¬ sey looks on. Mark relieved Doug Davis in the top of the seventh ana recorded the save as Phoebus de¬ feated Menchville 4-3. 148 Varsity Baseball Tim Baxter waits on third in the bottom of the seventh against War¬ wick. He reached first on a bunt sin¬ gle, stole second and went to third on a fielder’s.choice. He scored the final run on Tony Russell’s triple to right center field. The game was called after eight innings with the score tied. Brian Harmon leads off the fifth in¬ ning with a single in the Warwick game. He later scored on a hit by Doug Davis to give Phoebus a 7-6 lead. The game was called after eight innnings because of darkness with the score tied at 8. Doug Davis stretches for the throw from second baseman Norwood Williams for the second out in the top of the seventh against Mench- ville. Menchville scored twice in the inning but came up one run short in a 4-3 loss. Danny Miller, pinch running for Tony Russell, slides home with the sixth Phoebus run of the Warwick game. His score in the fourth inning gave Phoebus a 6-5 lead after being down 5-0. 149 Varsity Baseball Cheryl Gibbons fields a grounder at third during preseason practice. Cheryl was a member of last year’s team but broke her ankle midway through the season. Theresa Kinzie throws the ball to first from her shortstop position. Theresa played catcher and short¬ stop on last year’s team. Tiki Joyner leads off third during a practice session. Terri Williams, playing third, prepares herself for the next pitch. Gina Gibbons and Shanon Faulkner await their turn at bat during the afternoon practices. Batting prac¬ tice takes place toward the end of the practice session. 150 Softball SOFTBALL - IT’S AN EASY WAY TO MEET PEOPLE - Cheryl Gibbons H ere are some of the re¬ sponses when mem¬ bers of the softball team were asked why they were playing softball: “I’ve been playing softball for about five years now and I like being a part of a com¬ petitive team that works to¬ gether and tries to do well. It’s also an easy way to meet people.” Cheryl Gibbons “I am playing softball be¬ cause I thoroughly enjoy playing it at the high school level. I have played softball and or baseball nearly all my life and I might have a chance for a scholarship. I enjoy the competition and the exercise.” Theresa Kin- zie “I have been playing soft- ball for about four years. My family is really involved in sports, and I have liked growing up with sports. I played slow pitch, and just last year I came out as a ninth grader and played fast pitch. I have always enjoyed sports, especially softball and basketball.” Tiki Joyner “In the last four years, I have played a combination of slow and fast pitch soft- ball. During this time I have improved and achieved a better knowledge of the game. Most of all I just enjoy working together on a team and having fun at the same time.” Stephanie Traynham Stephanie Traynham takes batting practice during one of the practice sessions. Stephanie, a sophomore, played first base on last year’s team. Terri Monk, playing centerfield, catches a ball hit by coach Trayn¬ ham. Terri played catcher and left- field last season.

Various clubs sent representatives to as¬ sist in the concessions. banquet for the teams at the end of the sport’s season. For their help, each club that assists in the Rodeo, receives some money for their club. From 5:30-11 pm Friday and Satur¬ day and from 12-5 pm on Sunday the groups prepared themselves for the crowds of people that would pay to see the Rodeo. There was the selling of programs, manning of booths, and end¬ less walks up and down the aisles of the Coliseum selling lassos, pennants, hats and other memorabilia. “My feet were killing me after all that walking” replied Linda Darnell. Suzanne Rishell said “It was boring walking around selling,” so she went down to the booster club headquarters and stuffed programs for the next day’s activities. Mrs. Joyce Dorsey, who headed the Booster Club operation replied “It isn’t much money for all the work we put into it, but at least it is a way of making some money.” AIASA: Front Row—Mr. Harold Hinebaugh, Theresa Kinzie (Secre¬ tary), Mark Dunford (Vice-President), Bruce Neel.

Some people get their first taste in their elementary classes. Such was the case for Larry Cox and Ronn Mayo. Ronn played the role of the brave Captain Toothbrush. Other people such as Elizabeth Saw¬ yer became interested in drama during the junior high school years. Practical¬ ly everyone has had some taste of dra¬ ma through their English classes. But how do people get involved in theatre? Some people get the first experience in high school. They take a class such as technical drama, Acting I, Acting II or a Directing Class. Many go into these classes with closed eyes. They do not realize what exactly is expected of them or what will take place. Many people find they enjoy the theatre and their interest increases. Some people like the unity one gains working on productions while others strive on the achievement. Nonethe¬ less an interest in the theatre is begin¬ ning to show more in our school. The number of people coming to auditions for a production or to sign up for a tech¬ nical position is increasing rapidly. Many people involved in the drama classes came to auditions. They had found theatre fascinating and challeng¬ ing. Other people came to auditions be¬ cause a friend had mentioned the pos- siblity of performing in a production. They found this an experience they wanted to share. A few came to auditions for the sole purpose of signing up to do technical (backstage) work. They read lines just for the heck of it, then received a role in a play. Then there are the people who are daring. They hear an an¬ nouncement or see a poster saying au¬ ditions are going to be held. It is some¬ thing new so they get involved. Whatever the case, more people are beginning to take part in the drama program.

V TELL ABOUT EXPERIENCES IN 1 ilHlllY Ll U LJ 1 1 i I by Theresa Kinzie T he Foreign Language Club meets on the first Wednesday of each month. The officers conduct the meeting with the help of their sponsors and it consists of cultural talks by per¬ sons who have visited other countries, tasting foreign foods and discussions by foreign exchange students. Alonso Rey and Mona Stensrud conducted the January meeting. Alonso is a temporary exchange stu¬ dent from the Spanish-speaking coun¬ try of Colombia, South America. Even though he has only studied English for a few months, he presented himself very well. The difference in cultures between the United States and Colom¬ bia was a major item in his presenta¬ tion, but at a later interview, he talked about himself. His stay here consists of going to school, the movies, watching television and doing odd things with his American family. At school, Alonso takes six classes: English, Spanish, German, Computer Math, Art and Dra¬ ma. Surprisingly, his favorite class is German and he has been studying it for eight years. “I like the people from this school, they are very friendly and the teachers, I find the teachers very nice because they help me with my Eng¬ lish.” He also likes television and his favorite show is “The Pink Panther.” “When I watch TV, I understand the films not by their talking, but by their actions.” Living with his American family, he noticed that, “Families are not close enough here. People have too much liberties — they do not have the special union as Latin families.” Mona Stensrud is from the Scandan- avian country of Norway and has been here the full school year. Her discus¬ sion at the meeting consisted of her country’s culture, her life and her friends. The major differences in the life styles are equality of women and religion, she noted. “We have more equality of rights in Norway — women and men have to be paid equally and people in this country go to church more than we do.” Mona is very interested in languages and speaks three different languages. Here she takes English, French, Gov¬ ernment, Chorus, Health and History. She has been studying English since the fourth grade and in Norway it is mandatory. She also has taken French for three years, but here her favorite class is Chorus. We have been honored to have these two visit our school and hope that they will take a little American culture back with them to their own country.

A competition was held between the first period classes to see which class could bring the most dona¬ tions; the prize was a dollar to each of the students in the first period class. Mrs. Ernestine Thomas’s first period class won th e competition, and each student donated their prize money to the Salvation Army. The classes col¬ lected about 500 canned goods and $342.50 for the Salvation Army. “The Salvation Army was very pleased with the amount of canned goods donated, and surprised with the money dona¬ tions,” says Mrs. Barbara Thomas, Keyette sponsor. Roger Williams, Andy Fahrenkrug, and Nam- phon Saengduenchai place their can food in the collection box. Over 500 canned goods were col¬ lected for needy families.

TWO . . . one BALLOONS AWAY B ombs away! That was what it was all about December 8 as the Math Honor Society discovered the aerodynamics of a balloon. The object was to take a balloon with a given di¬ ameter and devise a method to have it drop the fastest from a height of about thirty feet. The balloon and materials could weigh no more than 20 grams. Each group had fifteen minutes to make their balloon bomb. The launch- “It hurt when the balloon popped in my face.” — Lynn Usry ings took place and Shandra Fields and Tammy Carrington were the winners. Doug Davis commented that “it helped us to understand airflow around objects.” Vu Phan said, “I had no idea that it would fall faster with the pointed end up. It seems it would have gone faster pointed end down.” Lynn Usry was heard to say, “it hurt when the balloon popped in my face.” NAI sONAL HONOR SOCIETY: Front Row—Shandra Fields Laura Wingate, Lynn Usry.

The staff be¬ gan working on this year’s book last year. They learned about making layouts, writing captions and copy, and other aspects of making a yearbook. During the summer some members at¬ tended a yearbook workshop which was held at Longwood College. There they attended classes to learn even more about putting together a book. To compile this year’s annual, mem¬ bers of the staff have worked after school, during their 6th period, and even during Christmas break. Teresa Russell came during the evenings to catch up on the typing. When it comes time for the staff to meet deadlines, they’ve been able to hear Mr. Sherrard say, “We’re not going to make this dead¬ line,” but somehow the staff manages to get things done. When the first proofs came back, the staff was pleased with their appearance. Floyd Showalter summed up their feelings by stating, “I think we’re going to have an¬ other good yearbook this year.” Elyzabeth Soltys spent much of her Christmas vacation in the yearbook room finishing up the Jan. 1 deadline. Staff members had to give up much of their free time to meet deadlines and produce a book in which they could be proud. Reinier Cruz was the main photographer for the staff. His efforts required nim to attend most school functions and spend many hours in the darkroom meeting the staff’s demands. 169 Yearbook Index A JL ,A.bdul-Musawir, Shalizar — 53 Adams, Glen — 19, 35, 69 Age, Foley — 11 Allen, Donnell — 53 Allen, Timothy — 35 Alligood, Rebecca — 19 Alexander, Rick — 144 Alexander, Mr. Richard — 80 Alston, David — 53 Angle, Amy — 53, 164 Aman.

Remember the football game against Kecoughtan when it poured down rain? Then there were Homecomings, the prom, Class Night, and all the various activities that came in between. Although the end of the year brings joyful anticipation of things to come, it also brings with it the realization that many will not be returning to Phoebus next year. It is to these people in particular that we would like to say — Thank you for all you did to help put US back in Phoebus. —Suzanne Willis— Isaac Perry, Gene Paranuk, and Teresa Kinzie pull the Junior class team in the chariot race. They were on the Spartan team. The other Junior team, the Doggers, won the overall competition. This was part of the Almost Anything Goes day sponsored by the SCA. It was held on Friday, June 3, 1983. Rod Debrew shows that you can’t break an egg by sitting on it. This demonstration was given in his Physics class. mm 175 Closing Section We’re Putting Students are leaving the final pep rally of the 1983-84 school year. The seniors will have the memories of these pep rallies while the juniors and sophomores will have more to look forward to. Back in Phoeb F0R jess RETURN T his is a tribute to all of those people who, for whatever reason, will not return to Phoebus next year. Although not every¬ one can be top in their class, or a star athlete, everyone who walks through these doors leaves their mark on Phoebus in one way or another. Everyone shall be remembered by someone for something he or she did to help put US back in Phoebus. —Suzanne Willis— ’84 Spectre STAFF.
