Fans are a big part of the Potomac Panther’s suc¬ cess. Loyal crowds shared in Panther victories as well as in their defeats. ipite all the many things that a high school lent has to do, some still find time to read. Jill ;;y looks interested as she reads the summary ie of our library’s many books. vl I Mr. Qualls, the Athletic Director at Potomac, pays a visit to the football field to check it out before a game. Parents play an important role at Potomac, Here Mr. Emmons observes the baseball team that he supports wit! dedication by attending all games. 2 Opening s Shock Rbsorbers Mr. Kite prepares to hand out the tests that he knows his students are eagerly awaiting for. Mr. Kite is also the announcer at most Potomac sports events. Even though students were in the spotlight, there were many other impor¬ tant people who helped them to shine. There were the people in school, which in¬ cluded teachers and administrators, and there were the people out of school, the parents. Both were of equal importance to a student’s high school life. The parents of Potomac had an essential role in our school and shared a big part in all of its activities. It was the parents who were the volunteers at Potomac. The duties they performed ranged from conces¬ sion stands at football games to pulling schedules for the new school year; from chaperoning dances to organizing clubs such as the Booster Clubs. Parents could be compared to cheerleaders. They loved you when you did well and even when you didn’t. The faculty of our school was definitely one of a kind. They lit up students’ lives by challenging their minds and making sure the school ran smoothly. The teachers aid¬ ed the school by encouraging and helping each student to reach his highest potential. In addition to teaching, our teachers coach¬ ed sports activities, chaperoned dances, and sponsored clubs. The administrators were the foundation of our school. They organized and supervized all the opera¬ tions of the school and made sure that every student stayed in line. Our school is made up of many people. In order for it to run smoothly and for everyone to receive all its benefits, we must work together. The faculty and parents of Potomac showed this every day by giving it their all to make Potomac Totally Electrifying. Many teachers, besides teaching, also coach sports ac¬ tivities. Here, Ms. Barnhart, the girls’ track coach, records stats for her team. For Mr. Ferrebee, Potomac is a new school. But even though he hasn ' t been here long, he was glad to speak to the class of ’83 as they graduated.

Opening mr T4T LHrHrsi When Potomac High School first opened its doors in 1978, the class of ’83 was in control of the future of our new school. When the class of ’84 arrived, an in¬ separable bond was formed between the two classes. But while the class of ’83 was in the limelight, the class of ’84 lurked backstage. When the class of ’83 moved on in their lives, it was time for the class of ’84 to take charge as seniors. It was our turn, and it was time to hit the lights as we became the leaders of Potomac Senior High School. We had always been second to the class of ’83, but as seniors, we had the power to uphold the tradi tions and good name of Potomac. No school is complete, however, without the help of the freshmen, sophomore, and junior classes. The freshmen had their usual trouble of trying to find their classes, while we all had trou¬ ble getting through the crowded hallways. The juniors got their class rings while the sophomores counted down their second year of high school. When we were all thrown together into one big building, it may not have seemed like we had much in common. But Potomac’s pride has always been in our togetherness and ability to cooperate with one another. With the same pride, spirit, and respect for one another that we ' ve seen throughout the history of Potomac, this year has proven to be Totally Electrifying. Susan Bahorich seems excited as she walks into the auditorium with all of her classmates. The highlight of every student’s high school experience is gradua¬ tion, and last year was no exception. Tim Vinson, who is a major contributor to the cross country team, tries his hand at tennis. Qi -dale To succeed in any sport, you must practice. Matt Pope, David Norton, Danny Raley, Bryan Luedtke, Mike Hargrave and Rodney Emmons show their devotion and enthusiasm for baseball all year round. Opening Happiness is having a close friend in study hall. Not only do Bo Colcombe and Paul Tiede work well together on the field, but also in the classroom. One of Potomac’s star baseball players, Danny Raley, contemplates the game during a brief respite. Out of Life Student Life There are some interesting things you can find under the microscope. Shawn Meade and John Jackson puzzle over what they could possibly have discovered in biology. Panthers get a real charge out of life at Potomac High School. Full of spirit, they make the most out of every moment of their lives. Over the summer, Panthers were seen prowling at camps all over the state or just lazing about at home soaking up the sun. Occasionally, you could even spot one at a summer job. When school started, Panthers hit the books and started participating in after¬ school activities. All this they did with fervor. That is what makes a Panther so special — everyth ing he does, he does with enthusiasm. This has become a characteristic of Panthers which gets them recognized everywhere. Student Life THE END ... OR JCJSl After graduation in Holland in 1982, Wies Vink became part of the foreign exchange program and graduated again as a student of Potomac. Overcoming her initial nervousness, Heather Hinkamp was the first student to speak as she delivered her Salutatory Address. Members of the National Honor Society were in¬ dicated by the wearing of white pendants with the N.H.S. emblem, like those worn by Stephanie Sebren and Shelly Seitz. Entering to the traditional playing of “Pomp and Cir¬ cumstance’’ were Valedictorian Lisa Margheim and David Bates. Both were members of the National Honor Society. Toni Malanka looked proud as her twelve years of schooling came to an end. But it was also the beginn¬ ing of a new adult life for the first graduates of Potomac. Among the students upset by the change of gradua¬ tion location were Kevin Anderson and Steve Amidon. Because of rain, the event was held in the gym, and many visitors had to be turned away. Student Life THE BEGINNING — 1 ——— Graduation was a time of mixed emo¬ tions. The graduates were happy that they had finished high school and were going to go on to bigger and better things. But they were also sad to be leaving friends and memories that they had made over the years. There was also a fear of whether or not they could survive in the “real world.” This feeling was soon conquered and graduates began to look optimistically into the future. Jo Baker, former principal of Potomac, and Reverend Blalock were the guest speakers. Also giving speeches were Valedictorians Cheri Mandrgoc and Lisa Margheim and Salutatorian Heather Hinkamp. Among other things in life, graduation is surely one of the most anticipated events in one’s lifetime and was the highlight of high school. By becoming Valedictorian of the class of ' 83, Cheri Mandrgoc fulfilled the promise of ‘‘Most Likely to Succeed.” Photos by S. Kurt Araujo Student Life 9 Stairway to the Stars On May 21, 1983, the tradition of a Junior-Senior Prom began. This event had been anticipated by many since they started high school. Getting a date with that special so¬ meone, dressing up in a tuxedo or gown, and dinner at a classy restaurant were all part of the pre-prom ritual. The class of ’84 worked diligently to raise the funds in order to have the prom at the Sheraton Inn. The hard work was paid off with smiling faces and happy memories. The “Daylighters” was the band chosen by the class of ’84. The band played a variety of music which seemed to please everyone. The theme was “Stairway to the Stars.” Students and faculty felt that nothing could compare to the excitement of the first prom. The prom theme was “Stairway to the Stars. Tony Thomas and Margaret Fullem were one of the many starry-eyed couples who went to Potomac ' s first prom. When students weren’t dancing, they were seen socializing with their friends. This was the last big high school event for the seniors, next to graduation. Nancy Barber and Rob Cameresi danced to the music of the Daylighters. The music was diversified and drew a large crowd to the dance floor. Allison Stewart and Marisa de los Santos stole a moment away from the prom in order to show off their beautiful gowns. Each and every girl was at her loveliest. A lot of students went to parties or breakfast after the prom, like Robert Zacharias and Lisa Hayes who went to breakfast at Dave Snyder’s. 0j Student Life Chosen as Potomac’s first Prom King and Queen, While her escort, Doug Wilson, took a break, Jen- pride was reflected on the faces of Clyde Turner and nifer Colletti shared a dance with friend Kurt Farber. Josee Dionne. Christa Vernarelli and her escort Jeff Lippert have one last dance before the prom’s end. This was an un¬ forgettable night for many.

Vice-President Mark Turner was presented the award by Principal Ferrebee during halftime. The 1983 Homecoming Court consisted of: Queen, Katie Homan; Senior Princesses, Shawn Purcell, Teri Carter, and Marisa de los Santos; Junior Princesses, April Koontz and Gina Bolk; Sophomore Princesses, Staci Crawford and Heidi Hinkamp (not pictured); Freshman Princesses, Lisa Bolk and Angie Wheeler.

Being congratulated by former Fall Festival Queen, Kelly Trainor, was Potomac’s first Homecoming Queen, Katie Homan, as her parents and Mr. Fer rebee looked on. Below After being crowned, Katie was escorted off the field by her proud parents. And the Winner Is • • • Potomac’s first Homecoming was a great success. It was an opportunity for graduates of ’83 to return and visit with friends and former teachers. The freshmen class selected Lisa Bolk and Angie Wheeler as their princesses. Staci Crawford and Heidi Hinkamp were chosen to represent the sophomore class in the royal court. Returning to their roles as princesses of the junior class were Gina Bolk and April Koontz. There was a tie in the seniors’ selection of princesses, so there were four — Teri Carter, Marisa de los Santos, Katie Homan, and Shawn Purcell. Last year’s Fall Festival Queen — Kelly Trainor — returned for the honor of crowning the first Homecoming Queen. Ms. Trainor was escorted onto the field by Principal Robert Fer- rebee. And the first Homecoming Queen of Potomac was . . . Katie Homan. The Rifles, Flags, and Marching Band dedicated the song “We Can’t Help Falling in Love with You’’ to her. The climax of the evening came in the last seconds of the game as Sheldon Simonovich intercepted the football in the end zone. Potomac won a victory of 13 to 8 against H.D. Wood- son High School. The Homecoming dance had a big turnout, and many former alumni welcomed the chance to attend. Sleeping Beauty was the theme of the enchanting junior float, which won second place. Michelle Kanche was the beauty awakened by the kiss of prince Doug Misenko. Summer Fun Is for Everyone Summer is for students to do with as they please. Although the majority of the students spend their summer relaxing and soaking up the sun’s rays, there were some who spent their summer constructively. Seniors usually had jobs to keep them busy. Dedicated students and athletes spent a week or two at summer camps, which can be as enjoyable as it is helpful. Some began their summer with a celebration trip to King’s Dominion. For the second year in a row, Senior Sheila Neary chartered a bus for her fun-loving friends. Virginia Beach and Ocean City were also popular hot spots. Those who didn’t want Taking the opportunity to show off their tan lines are Bill Chapman and Tony Nattania. to spend a lot of money just went to the beaches in Montclair. Montclair Day was a big occasion with something for everyone. The festivities in¬ cluded everything from concerts to the clown dunk to sand skiing. Students could be found all around the world vacationing with friends or families. Ms. Cash, along with Ms. Droves to add even more excitement, took a group of students to France for the time of their life. Whatever we chose to do over the sum¬ mer must have been something special because as always, as soon as school starts again we can’t wait until the summer. Taking it easy, David Shive passes his time by play¬ ing tennis. During the summer, many students find the chance to catch up on old pastimes. Student Life Spending their summer constructively, Richard Lori Conatser and Michelle Theriault have a coke DuBreui! and Dennis Gallagher work as lifeguards at and a smile on Montclair Day. Many students turned the beaches in Montclair. out for the events which included various tour¬ naments and relay races.

Renee Voegtly and Ms. Thompson were regulars on Mrs. Holcombe’s infamous hikes. A nature lover, Mrs. Holcombe found the time to take Potomac students on these excursions. Montclair Day was attended by many who showed up to join in the festivities. This group of students seemed to enjoy watching the sand skiing. Student Life 15 The Class of ’84 has long been known as the Class with Class. However, it has always been overshadowed by the Class of ’83 because that was the first graduating class of Potomac Senior High School. This year, the Class of ’84 final¬ ly had the chance to prove that it did, indeed, have class and took charge of the school. At pep rallies and sporting events, Seniors were always there cheering their team on. They were almost unequalled in spirit; rivaled only by the Sophomore Class of ’86. In fact, even when the Sophomores proved to be a force to be reckoned with dur¬ ing Spirit Week, the Seniors’ enthusiasm and energy towards the school never diminished. Academically, the Seniors have excelled, with more members in the National Honor Society than ever before. Therefore, the Class of ' 84 has well deserved its title and Potomac Senior High School can always remember them with pride. During the taking of senior portraits, Hollie Hargett helps Wes Brown prepare himself for the camera. The Sociology course was said to be the class closest to a college course. The class not only taught about human behavior, but it also prepared students for college. Taking a break from her role as yearbook photographer, Susan Ariola has a rare chance to be on the opposite side of the camera. Seniors Kelly Beckman, here with friend Mark Kitta, was just one of the many students who made the class of ' 84 — The Class With Class. In order to be a successful teacher, one must have a good rap¬ port with students, as Mr. Kite shows with Scott McKenzie. Mr. Kite worked hard as senior class sponsor and also made seniors work hard. Stretching out before cross country practice is Tim Vinson. Many students were involved in various sports, all which helped to make Potomac 1. Panther supporters, like Doug Johnson, showed up at games and meets to cheer their team on to victory after victory. Lockers are like a Catch 22 you can t live with them, and you can’t live without them. Lockers were not always easy to open, but there were the lucky few who had no problems, like Doug Wilson. Seniors Potomac at Its BEST The Class of ' 84 nominated and voted on many students for the Senior Superlatives. The categories varied to satisfy most seniors. Once the votes were turned in, they were tallied up and the winners were kept secret. Surprise, seniors. Here are the results! Studying is how to “get the smarts,” and Teri Carter and Bapi Bhattacharjee have them. They were voted MOST INTELLECTUAL seniors. Where will most seniors be ten years from now? Who knows? But one thing is for certain; Teri Carter and Mike Selgelid — the MOST LIKELY TO SUC¬ CEED — will be on top. G.Q. and Cosmopolitan will be thrilled when they take a look at Katie Homan and Mike Dillon, the BEST LOOKING seniors. Keeping up with the quickly changing styles and fads is hard, but somehow Katie Homan and Wes Brown do it well enough to be voted BEST DRESSED. They should be in the zoo, but they were too good to be caged up. The senior class branded Jennifer Bowser and Bobby LaFleur MOST MISCHIEVOUS. l E id 1 ! 18 Seniors Greeting you at the end of Potomac’s red carpet are Dawn Bullen and Bo Colcombe, Potomac’s FRIENDLIEST seniors. Potomac’s MOST ATHLETIC are seniors Diana Jones and Wayne Gilbert. They participate in such sports as football, volleyball, basketball, baseball, and softball. AH the best qualities of Potomac ' s student body are seen in MR. and MISS POTOMAC. This year, the titles go to Teri Carter and Bo Colcombe. They’ve got spirit and so should you. Cheering Potomac on are Tonni Austin and Danny Raley — the MOST SPIRITED seniors.

So, with the first senior class, a special section of the yearbook was set aside just to honor those seniors that have performed above and beyond the call of duty. The coaches and sponsors of different varsity activities have chosen the 1983-1984 school year’s “Super Seniors.” Not Pictured is Wayne Cornwell for Marching Band. Steve Greer — Tennis Wayne Gilbert — Football Seniors 23 SENIORS AT WORK AND PLAY Chorus is a subject many students enjoy but do not always have room in their schedules for. After mak¬ ing a recording, Mike Johnson listens as it is played back for him to hear. Staticians Joell Wiggins, Ashley Lehman, and Jewell Jennings brave the cold winter night to record stats of the evening’s football game. Stats are an im¬ portant part of many sports. 1 Br 1 i j|, w Jar Finally able to walk through the halls without feel¬ ing like sardines are Pat O’Hara and Joe Devaney. Potomac’s crowded halls became an infamous and much talked about subject. Taking her turn at the board during her English class is Terri Gilliam. Terri always has a friendly smile that would brighten up anyone’s day. 24 Seniors During Football camp, Scott Griffea refined his skills and put them to good use during the football season. Scott is also a valuable member of the track team. Dan Mancuso is caught in the act by Mrs. Secord as he playfully teases Kelly Beckman, much to her dismay. Homeroom is a time to socialize with friends before beginning the schoolday. New to the school this year, Scott Francis soon felt right at home after making new friends and getting used to his family’s move to Virginia. Not only a time for eating, lunch is also a time to chat with friends or catch up on homework as Eric Ruiz demonstrates. An alternative to lunch is going to the library where it is much quieter. Pretty as a picture. Sarah Davis displays her charm during a mock photo session. You would be surprised at the things students do to get their photos taken. Seniors 25 The Class With Class Throughout their years at Potomac, the class of ’84 had seen many tables turned and changes made. The class was originally spon¬ sored by Mr. Cummins and Mr. Eaton. With their leadership, the class of ’84 sponsored the first Spring Dance and worked on the school dedication ceremonies. Joined by Mr. Kite their junior year, the class sponsored the first Junior-Senior Prom of Potomac. Seeing the class of ’83 leave with many valuable people, the class of ’84 work¬ ed hard to follow in their footsteps. Last year, Teri Carter took office as the senior class president. Richard DuBriel, her right hand man, served as vice-president. David Secrist suffered from writer’s cramp as the class secretary and “money-happy” Julie Slade was the treasurer. Paul Tiede, Kathy Smith, Mark Henshaw and Rob Crichlow shared responsibilities with the class officers. The foursome served as the Board of Directors. Last year was the first time the senior class had a Board of Direc¬ tors, and it proved to be a success. The class officers and the Board of Direc¬ tors combined to make the class of ’84’s senior year their best! Sometimes being a class officer is fun and games.

Lynn Maruschak does her share of it with total concentration. Seniors A senior has almost completed life’s “Basic Training, claims Bryan Sims. The prestige of being a senior sets them above the underclassmen. A Senior. . . — has accomplished a lot and should be proud of it. — is a nut at football games. — shows his spirit better than the rest. — is a leader — is well respected and looked up to. — is a trend setter. — is ready to face the world. — to be brief, is a massive partier. — is the cream of the crop (creme de la creme). — is totally awesome, so awesome. — is the tops. — will always be “in the mix.” — is what all underclassmen want to be. — causes fear to the freshmen. — has almost completed life’s “basic training.” — is a person who takes on maturing as a mask, much like an actor. — is terrified of being on the bottom again next year. — as Doug Johson would say, “is a God like creature who flawlessly floats through the halls of a high school, and is warranted to do almost anything he or she desires. Another point that is to be emphasized is that they are the supreme beings of the school and are held in high esteem, much higher than the lower juniors, sophomores and freshmen.” Ray Bronkema Katherine Burke Wesley Brown Pamela Burchard David Burk Lisa Bryant Sharon Burdette Gina Burleson A senior is someone mature enough to be a leader, smart enough to know when to follow, and daring enough to lend a hand. 28 Seniors As editor-in-chief of the newspaper , David Snyder spent many long hours after school working to make deadlines.

A poll was taken, and it was exciting to see what the students of this class had planned for their future. Most of the seniors were planning to go to a four year college close to home. Virginia Tech, Old Domi¬ nion, George Mason and GVa were the most popular colleges. Many students wanted to go into law; government, lawyers, representatives and even the presidency were among the top choices. While some seniors want to be making laws, others plan to enforce them. The FBI, CIA and other organizations will be excited with all the new recruits. The medical profession was very popular too. With so many potential doctors, this world will soon be a better place. Aside from the professions, many students plan on marriage in the future, but not any time soon. “I want to have fun for a while” seemed to be a frequent quote. Well, these are the class of ‘84’s plans, dreams and hopes. We’ll find out what really happens at the reu¬ nions. Good luck, Seniors!

Our Next President? Last summer, seven young men from Potomac spent a week at Boys’ State, located in Lynchburg, Virginia. The week was filled with the sounds of governmental practices born at the state and national level. The seven students, Jon Davis, Mark Henshaw, Nolan Malone, Paul Tiede, Bill Chap¬ man, Richard DuBreuil and John Baldwin were all instructed in the basic principals behind the ideals of state government. Although the lectures were long and the temperature was hot, a good time was had by all. And the lessons learned were greatly beneficial in helping to understand the required government classes of PSHS.

He has been an active participant in musicals and various plays in the community and school. He was in a four month run of “Kismet” at the Lazy Susan Inn Dinner Theater. Mike studied music under Cathryn Fraizer-Neely for 2 years. His senior year he joined Potomac’s musical program as o ne of the Camerata Singers. During 1983 he was an alter¬ nate for Kings Dominion’s Mason- Dixon Theater. Having been a member of the “Back Stage Dance Company” he was able to perform at various places such as the Washington Sheraton. After high school, he plans to fur¬ ther his education at the Shenandoah Conservatory of Music in the Music Theater Program to earn a bachelor of music degree. Mike’s ambition in life is to appear on Braodway sometime in the near future. As a member of the chorus in “Kismet,” Mike Kvenberg displays his theatrical talents.

A serious skate boarder rides on ramps, in empty swim¬ ming pools and in drainage ditches.” What Allen Chaney was referring to is his favorite sport and hobby-skateboarding. Allen has been skate boarding for nine years. Allen was ranked number one in Prince William County and was fifth in the State of Virginia. He generally has competed all up and down the East Coast. Allen was once on the 7-Up Skate Board Jeam. The team traveled to a contest on Emerald Island on the coast of North Carolina. There, he won every event and won the overall championship. Skateboarding is much more difficult than most people realize. Anyone can stand on a skateboard, but it takes skill and a lot of practice to ride one. The skateboarders that compete work hard to improve their style, and form. In competition, skateboarders are judged on style, the difficulty of their tricks, the number of their tricks and the crowd’s reaction to the skateboarder’s perfor¬ mance. One trick that stuns a crowd is called the “Ca¬ nyon Jump.” Most skateboarders feel that this is the most difficult trick. This feat is accomplished by jumping across the entrance of an empty swimming pool. Sounds Hard!! Seniors 39 Shonda Lowe Donald Lowry Bryan Luedtke And Here She Comes Here she comes, Miss Josee Marie Dionne, Winner of the first annual Miss Potomac Pageant! The pageant was held April 15, 1983, and was sponsored by the Key Club. The girls competed in categories of poise and grace, and in an interview situation. The girls paraded across the stage in their gowns to the enjoyment of a full house. Their brightly colored dresses carried the theme of “Kaleidescope of Colors.” After the ten semi-finalists answered impromptu questions, the finalists were chosen, and the winner was announced. Third runner-up was junior Denice Thorlton. Second runner-up was junior Marisa de los Santos. Senior Gloria Ferren was the first runner-up. Tara Wilson was chosen Miss Photogenic. It was another first for Potomac High School, and another chance to be proud of the lovely ladies who attend.

Going, Going Gone “i think it’s great! It gives students the chance to get a head start in col¬ lege or even in the business field.” What senior Jackie Sizemore was referring to is the early release pro¬ gram offered at Potomac. Only seniors could leave school early because of a shortened schedule. The seniors who left early had to have a job or attend college during the remainder of the school day. A few students, like Jackie, at¬ tended Northern Virginia Community College. They took freshman English, history and a variety of other courses. While some students were racking their brains and studying hard for classes, people like Kasey Swecker were ‘‘bringing in the bucks!” Kasey found a job working for the IBM Com¬ pany in Manassas. Programs such as this were set up by the ICT and DECA organizations.

Both Scott and Wally have presented the morning announcements for the past year. Who, What, When, Where, Why? “Who are those idiots?” “Will you shut up?” “Is this really necessary?” These were the questions that swirled ar ound in the minds of students as they sat in their homerooms listening to the morning announcements, waiting for yet another day of education to begin. The answers to those questions are: seniors Scott Stirling and Wally Edwards, no and yes. The morning announcements were received each morning with a surprising level of enthusiasm, as students waited eagerly for the gleaming pearls of information dropping from the P.A. system. “Courtesy of Wally Edwards” Seniors 45 Steve Shaeffer takes a stab at playing Risky Business” on the tennis courts.

The Governor’s School is a special program tailored to meet the needs of ‘‘gifted and talented’’ students. In order to be selected, the prospective candidates had to go through a lengthy process that consists of an essay of at least 4,000 words and an application form that left most of them wondering whether Governors School was worth all the trouble. However, after they finally got all of their work in and had a few weeks to contemplate their chances of being accepted, they began to realize the trouble was worthwhile. Because no grades were given for any classroom work, the program afforded the students the chance to learn for the sake of learning — a rare opportunity. All the participants felt that Governors School was definitely worth giving up a month of the summer for. They had some very special times and came home with memories that will last them a lifetime.

Again students were making a come¬ back with the fashions of new wave and punk. There were parachute pants with zippers or snaps for those students who were airborne and wanted to take off. Spiked hairdos, birdnest hair styles and true tribal mohawks became a common sight. Mini¬ skirts, checkered and polka-dotted shirts and mus¬ cle shirts were now making a scene. From those who wanted to hide from the world, camouflage fashions were worn. All these outfits came in wild and brilliant colors. All were true attention getters. Aside from all the wild, crazy and bizarre fashion of punk and new wave were still the students who remained wearing clothing that fit their personality and taste. Some students still preferred the look of Ivy League (prep) which included anything from green- eyed Izod alligators to topsiders and Shetland sweaters. Jocks and jockettes had their own fashions too. They wore styles to fit the individual sport. Puma, Nike, and Addias became everyday names. Rugby attire, ocean wear and sweat suits were often seen. Other students still preferred the casual, even comfortable, look of denims, plaid shirts, t-shirts, hiking boots and a wide variety of hats. Last but not least were the students that liked to dress up. They wore anything from designer jeans to dressy pleated pants. The girls topped their slacks off with crisp ruffled blouses or colorful sweaters. Oxford shirts were worn by all in colors from pastels to striped. One of the newest fads is wearing an earring. Jimmy Carson is a perfect example of how it is worn. All enjoyed seeing the changes in styles and par¬ ticipating in the different fads that came and went. What will next year have in store for us?

Katie Homan was voted Potomac’s very first Homecoming Queen. The song “Isn’t She Lovely?” was played at the Homecoming Game as Katie Homan’s election as Homecoming Queen was announced. The answer to the theme song’s question is — Yes, Katie is lovely, and so were the senior princesses in her court. Included in the group of Potomac’s prettiest were Marisa de los Santos, Shawn Purcell and Teri Carter. It was an exciting occasion for all as past and present Panthers celebrated Homecoming on October 14th. The Homecoming football game was played against H.D. Woodson, and the Panthers were in command. They came out on top with a score of 13-8. The following day, the junior class worked hard on the decorations for the traditional Homecoming Dance. Katie and her court were escorted by their dates and presented to all in attendance. Katie was then seated on her throne and the dance floor was reserved for the court to begin the festivities. Potomac’s first Homecoming was a real success and will be remembered fondly by all in the years to come.

We’ve watched as wars broke out and innocent people were killed, countries continued to quarrel and fight over issues such as borders, and occurrences of years ago, hostages have been taken, and even threats of nuclear wars that could destroy entire countries or even the world. But those years haven’t been totally violent. Many things happened that were happy and put smiles on faces. There were times when two coun¬ tries came together and joined forces in peace to search for wreckage and loved ones; there were new presidents and prime ministers taking office with op¬ timistic views and ideas, “fairy tale” courtships, royal weddings and eventually royal births, discoveries and advancements in space, medicine and technology were made, giving us hope for the future. We’ve learned what to expect in the future. By watching, studying, learning and understanding the events of the past we can better the future and learn from the mistakes others have made to prevent past tragedies from occurring in the future. 52 Seniors Annette Williams Jeffery Williams William Williams Ashley Wiggins Tammy Whitmer Ted Wayne” Wilson Rene Woo Robert Zacharias Tim Anderson and Paul Theriault head for another day of football practice at summer camp.

Seniors are always overshadowing them; teachers have to worry about their recommenda¬ tions; Guidance has to worry about getting them into college, and there is little time left over for the rest of the student body. However, occasionally underclassmen pry everyone’s eyes from the Seniors and focus them on themselves. At Homecom¬ ing, the Freshmen stole the show with their winning float depicting Dumbo, the magical flying elephant. During Spirit Week, the Sophomores proved a for¬ midable opponent to the Seniors and, after a tremendous struggle, finally came out on top. The Juniors had their turn to shine when they held the Junior-Senior Prom, for which they had been working all year. And even if these brief moments of glory were not enough to satisfy the underclassmen, they always have their Senior year to look forward to when they, too, will have all eyes on them. As biology lab partners, Ray Terczak and Kevin Bella share the responsibility of completing the experiment. Another good thing about having a partner is having someone to blame if something goes wrong! 58 Underclassmen During Spirit Week, the sophomores proved they have the most school spirit in the entire student body. Even in the classroom, cheerleaders Ann Beamer and Andrea Tardiff showed their spirit. With intense concentration, Donald Tisdale listened to Coach Brown at summer camp. His concentration paid off on the football field. To most students, their Junior year was the most difficult, at least in English, because of the compulsory research paper that goes along with it. Finding information on the topic is usually the hardest part, as Todd Jenkins discovered. Underclassmen 59 JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS — Treasurer, James Miller; Secretary, Kim Feltault; Vice-President, Kelly Johnson; President, Doug Misenko. The Class of ‘85 went to great lengths to raise money for the Prom. Starting with almost nothing, the Junior Class sold fruit at Christmas, organized the Junior-Senior powder-puff game and gave the Homecoming Dance. They also held Potomac’s first MORP Dance and Val-O-Grams were sent on Valen¬ tine’s Day. These new fund-raisers added variety to Potomac and were successful in giv¬ ing a first-class Prom.

Heading for Success Photo session, runway, make-up and posture became everyday expressions for juniors Jenny Abel and Stephanie Berta when these girls entered the world of teenage modeling. Jenny and Stephanie began modeling in June of 1983 with no previous ex¬ perience. They took classes at Finishing Touches in Springfield, which taught them modeling techniques, walking and appearance. Their poise and grace showed that they had been well-taught. Even if they do not end up in modeling as a career, these characteristics will always assist these two charmers in anything they do.

A wide variety of ston e colors made class ring ! selections a difficult decision for many juniors. In September, the Herff Jones Com¬ pany distributed ring order forms to in¬ terested students. Since the price of gold had dropped in the past year, many found that they could afford the gold ring setting they preferred. Others discovered Ultrium, a metal alloy, as a less expensive alternative. The members of the Class of ' 85 received their rings at the Ring Dance, December 17. Most students participated in the tradition of ring turning. After having the ring rotated eighty-four times, they reserved the eighty- fifth turn for someone special. This procedure symbolized good luck for the future. Although many held on to their rings, some “loaned” them to their girlfriends or boyfriends. They were worn dangling from a chain or on their steady’s hand. Females resorted to a number of tactics to keep their boyfriends’ ring on their finger, while guys found that many of the girls’ rings would not fit over their first knuckle. All in all, the rings stayed special to whoever wore them. As the ultimate symbols of high school, class rings represented years of education and camaraderie with friends and classmates.

In order to prepare for the dread¬ ed SAT, students were able to take a preliminary test, the PSAT. This helped them to become more comfortable with the real thing. SAT’s caused much anxiety among the students because they determined, With furrowed brow, Tony Qualls concentrates with intensity. Preparation for the SAT ' s took total effort. College in large part, one’s academic future. A high score increased a student’s chance of getting into the college of his choice. Although a perfect score is 1600, the average score is 900. In order to help students prepare for these tests, after school SAT classes were organized and tutored by faculty members. Many students felt that the SAT test was the last big hurdle before graduating.

In 1980, Joe became interested in amateur radio braod- casts. After getting in touch with the American Radio Relay League, Joe took lessons. During the summer, Joe made his first contact over the radio with his teacher at WBUCZX, passed his test and earned his license. Unable to work at his radio over th e summer due to a near fatal acci¬ dent, Joe made contact with another ham radio operator in Pittsburg that fall. Since then, he has made 305 contacts in over thirty states. Not limiting his horizons to the United States, Joe has talked to people in England, Canada, the West Indies, Sweden, British Columbia, and other coun¬ tries. In order to communicate in a com¬ mon language, the overseas contacts are made in International Morse Code. Joe’s in¬ terests can truly be said to cover the globe. Sitting among his radio equipment is Joe Williams. Such a rare form of communication for a young man I makes him friends all over the world. 72 Juniors Thomas Smith Renae Smoot Angie Spooner Dan Stanley Steven Stanley Adam Stapor Nicoel Steagall Bobby Stefko Shellie Stennick Robert Sterbutzel Shawn-ta Sterns Raymond Storey Tim Sullivan Danny Sweeney Edward Sweeney Trade Sweeney Chris Szentas Dee Tainter Brannen Taylor Ernie Terrazas Michelle Therault Patricia Thomas Tina Thomas Jeanna Tillman James Trent Joanne Triano John Triplett Dennis Tucker Kim Turner Gene Turpin Running chains for the Freshmen and Junior Varsi¬ ty football games are Richard DuBreuil and Pete Pan- dazides.

Few people realize how serious it is to drive when drunk or how many people are killed each year by drunken drivers. One organization which tries to promote public awareness to this problem is Students Against Drunk Driving — SADD. A Potomac chapter of SADD was organized this year by Mrs. Peterson. She was responsible for sending Scott Dadson and Kelly Johnson to the Washington Regional Alcoholic Program. At this seven hour seminar, they were shown how to set up their own chapter of S.A.D.D. National Alcoholic and Substance Awareness Week was December 11 through December 17. Scott and Kelly began their membership drive a week earlier to inform students of the impor¬ tance of this organization. A week later, a parents’ meeting was set up to increase adult awareness about what was being done about drunk driving. The response was excellent. “We wanted to get the word out about S.A.D.D. in a way that teenagers would understand,” stated Scott. Plans were also made and carried out to expand the program to hereby middle schools. At a meeting in the library, S.A.D.D. sponsor, Mrs. Peterson, explains the purpose of the organization. Many students gave freely of their time and effort to make the group a success. 74 Juniors John Whirl Bobby White Brenda Whitmire Greg Wickline Anita Williams Doug Williams Jerry Williams Joe Williams John Willis Lee Wilson Scott Wilson Stephanie Wise Tammy Witherspoon David Wittig Wanda Wolfe Chris Wolter Conrad Woo Betty Woolfrey Head of S.A.D.D., Scott Dadson, discusses the issue at hand — drunk driving.

Juniors 75 The class of ’86 will always be able to look back upon their sophomore year at Potomac with pride in their achievements. They proved their spirit by working hard together during Spirit Week. As a result of this hard work, they received the “All- Around Spirit Award’’ at the first Homecoming Game. They were the first class to break the 1982-83 record in Spirit Link sales. Fondly, they will recall the outstanding quality of work into the hall and float decorating which depicted the theme of Walt Disney. With their team work and dedication to making Potomac Senior High School number ONE, the class of ’86 has proven that they have the “MORE” that makes the sophomore! The class was sponsored by Ms. Bates and Mr. Jones. Through their many ac¬ complishments, they have proven that the Class of ’86 will always be a strong, suc¬ cessful part of tomorrow’s future.

This time will be remembered, for a while, because Sophomores take Driver’s Education as a part of P.E. class. Driver’s Education or P.E. classes were taught by Mr. Sorrel, Mr. Gardzel, Mr. Qualls, Mr. Cameron, and Mr. Clarke. In order to take Driver’s Education a stu¬ dent must be fifteen years, eight months old and have a learner’s permit. The requirements for the Drivers Ed. course were thirty-six class hours, ten hours on the driving range, of which five were spent driving and five were spent observing. There was also on the road train ing which was four hours, while, on the road, students drove in various places such as Montclair, Woodbridge, Interstate 95, Highway 234, and Route 1. After successfully completing the Driver’s Education course, the students received a certificate of completion; this proves that the student has completed the course. Passing Driver’s Education was on¬ ly one-half of getting a license; the other half was passing the Driver’s test given by the Division of Motor Vehicles Department.

Steve March displays the many trophies and awards he has received as a result of his hard work. Champion skater Steve March, who started skating at age twelve, began com¬ peting when he was only thirteen. He skated first at his local rink. When he realized how much he enjoyed skating, he began taking lessons and is now taking lessons at a rink in Reston. Practice takes four hours on weekdays and eight on weekends. Steve has gone to many different places for competitions. He has skated in many locales on the East Coast and as far west as Nebraska and Texas. It has caused him to miss school, but Steve said, “It’s worth it!” His most recent success came at Virginia Beach where he took first place in Men’s Figure Skating. He and his partner, Marie Powell, also came in third in Danc¬ ing. After high school, Steve plans to go to college. Skating, then for the time being, will have to take a back seat to studies. If his coach approves, Steve may turn pro¬ fessional after he has completed college. Steve is a young man to keep an eye on. He has his sights set high and is sure to be 80 Sophomores a success.

Fox hunting was just one chapter in Tricia’s horse story. Every Fri¬ day evening, she headed for Warrenton where she spent the weekend with her riding coach, Devoe Sehnert of Hunt Coun¬ try Stables. There she divided her time bet¬ ween working in the stables, fox hunting, and schooling horses for competition in the larger horse shows on the Virginia cir¬ cuit. Just recently graduated from small, local shows at state and national level, Trish already had several ac¬ complishments under her belt. In equita¬ tion, she holds the Trallee Farms J. Frank Cockerille Memorial Challenge Trophy. also won the blue ribbon and trophy in me :k equitation at Showday Farms the first time she ever competed on a national lev 41 :. In November, she competed with Around adult riders and placed well during the day. In the coming year, she will compete on the junior level circuit with the Virginia Horse Show Association. Trish has been an avid rider since she began lessons at age five. She competed in her first show at eleven and got a pony of her own for her twelfth Christmas. She has worked hard, earning lessons from her coach by cleaning stalls, grooming horses, and cleaning tack. As an employee of Hunter Run Farm in Woodbridge, she cleaned stalls and fed horses every after¬ noon to earn money for entry fees at the horse shows. Trish summed it up cheerful¬ ly, “It’s been worth it. Someday I want to be a real part of the horse world. It’s a very exciting way to live.” Her future goal is to win the Medal Maclay Junior Equitation finals in New York. With her diligence, she is sure to make it. Displaying one of her many trophies, Patricia Dunlap stands next to her horse, Small Talk. This trophy is the first national trophy Trish has won. 82 Sophomores From the football field to the classroom Donald Tisdale does his best.

How embarassing! I’ve just been put on I.S.S. Now everyone will know I got too many tardies!” These famous last words were heard from the students when they took the alternative to out-of school- suspension. I.S.S., or In-School-Suspension was a unique form of school punishment because it allowed a student to “serve time” in school. This meant they could do their school assignments for that day and receive credit for them rather than the zeros they would get during out of school suspension. It also meant students stayed in school and worked rather than staying home to watch television. However, it was not fun. Students who had already experienced ISS were not too interested in going back, and the problems of tardiness and skipping decreased. Rules were strict and strictly enforced. Having an assigned seat was not too bad, but the no talking rule was difficult to observe. Lunch, normally a socializing event, was eaten after all lunch shifts were over, and the no talking rule was carried through even there. Students who did not complete their assignments during the I.S.S. day were required to return the next day until all their work was done. It was not the most enjoyable way to spend a day, but many students felt it was preferable to missing class assignments. However, few wanted I.S.S. to become their household word. Paperwork takes up much of Mr. Przybocki’s time. As director of I.S.S., he is responsible for making sure an I.S.S. student has an assignment for every class.

When the eighth grader first came to Potomac he was classified as a freshman. Some of the freshmen were very disoriented, but as the year progressed they started to find things faster, do things differently and make the impossible — possible. As the ninth graders go up the ladder of classification the next step is sophomore. These students have mastered skills like figuring out new schedules, and finding the class to match them. Two of the newer skills learned by sophomores are . . . doing reports in 24 hours or less, doing homework in homeroom and getting a passing grade on it. The junior year is somewhat more relax¬ ing, because there is no disorientation as there was the year before, a student simp¬ ly puts himself on auto pilot and goes. By now some students drive to school which means no getting up early to catch the bus. Because the typical junior is mature, he walks a little bit more proudly down the halls and into class. One of the highlights of the year was the Prom. It makes juniors dream of next year — the final glorious year of High School. When the glorious Senior year finally arrives they hold their heads up high, for they know that after this year they would not return to Potomac or drive up Four Year Trail as a student, but as an adult. Now back to their Senior year . . . they avoided getting caught on Senior Skip Day, they got their own private parking lot, their own lunch shift, and also looked down on underclassmen that will return the next year. Now these young eager adults are the future of the world, a shining example for young eighth graders to follow. Politely, Mark Anglin listens to the guest speaker, Mr. Wade who has come to talk about ICT in Mrs. Gavin’s class. ICT is a vocational course dealing with on-the-job training. 90 Sophomores Physical education tests students’ strength and endurance. A sophomore class shows what tough stuff they are made of. Ben Franklin invented the stove, but Ben Francois would like to know who invented algebra. The never-ending struggle to get good grades is an element in every student’s life. Jennifer Gonzales and Alison Goodrich work busily on an assignment in biology to reach that goal. Sophomores 91 Freshman class officers are as follows: Candy Covington, President; Rob Willis, Vice-President; Katy Hernandez, Secretary. Not Pictured: Wendy Alachnowitz, Treasurer At orientation, the freshmen got an idea of what to expect from the first year of high school. They were excited, yet ap¬ prehensive about attending a new school with many new people. After attending various middle schools, the first few days were spent getting to know each other bet¬ ter. Being the youngest students at Potomac, they realized that they would have to learn from the upperclassmen. By working together as a class and under their class sponsor, Miss Stultz, the freshmen did very well in many activities during the school year. They did well in sports and won first place and $100.00 on their float during Spirit Week. The freshmen also sponsored a successful dance in February as their main fund raiser for the year. With continuous effort and cooperation, the freshmen feel that they will hav e three more successful years at Potomac. Straining to complete a grammar assignment is Kim Little.

High on the list was having to ride the school bus. Most freshmen were too young to drive yet, and, unless they had older friends or willing parents, the morning ride on the big yellow bus was part of the daily routine. Having to wait at a bus stop for ten to twenty minutes in rain, snow, wind, storms and other uncomfortable conditions were just a few of the problems that had to be faced. Another were the irregular bus drivers who made their runs early one day but late the next. Somehow making it right on time to the bus stop was not part of the grand plan. It would be hard to find a freshman who was not ready and waiting for that special day to come when he was old enough to get a license and could make it on his own. Freshmen 95 Testing, Testing. . . “Oh, boy! No English today” was pro¬ bably the most common response to learning that DAT testing was to be given. This test, which is part of the standardized testing program in Prince William is routinely given to all freshmen in the fall of their first high school year. After awhile, however, it got to be somewhat boring filling in all the little circles and worrying about eye strain was an occupational hazard. The eight parts of the test covered every imaginable subject and or skill. Also included was a career planning questionaire. For many freshmen, this was their introduction to thinking about the future and wondering if there really was life after high school. A biology assignment takes a lot of concentration from Courtey Mooney and Tom Smith. Labs were definitely a hands on experience and a test of skill.

The freshmen prove that they are worthy members of PSHS. After a hectic and sometimes chaotic first month of high school, the freshmen were introduced to their first Spirit Week. Cinder the direction of Candy Covington, the frosh got right into the spirit of things. Tough competition throughout the week raged between the freshmen and sophomores as each tried to outdo the upper classmen. Spirit link sales were brisk and unique dress was the order of the day on Disney Day. As this was a first for the freshmen, it took a while for them to get going. They proved their stuff at the Homecoming Game when their float won first prize. The float, car¬ rying out the Disney theme was a replica of Dumbo, one of the most endearing of the Disney characters. It’s said that an elephant never forgets, and win¬ ning the float competition was an event that will make the ’83 Homecoming long remembered by the class of ’87.

Although going from being the head of the school to being a freshman was a real pride-breaker, most students anxiously awaited their first years of high school. Many students complained that the work was harder and the teachers more strict than in middle school. However, they felt high school was a challenge and soon adjsuted to the changes. 102 Freshmen Kathe Meary Shadon INejati Aaron Nelsen Kelly Newman Mick Nicolosi Fred Micolson Wayne O’Brien Brendan O ' Donnaghue Jeff O ' Hara Kara O’Hara Leslie Ohr Mike Orr Kelli Overholser Bob Owles Carrie Palm Peter Palmadesso Darrell Parker Peggy Pasek Sherri Patton Jeff Pauge Michelle Pearce Sharon Pearson Tim Pease Mickie Pegler Kathy Perry Mike Peverill Brent Phillips Derek Phillips Kelly Phoenix Sheri Pierce Keith Piirto Chrissy Pilkinton Kristen Pinckard Lisa Pittman Samantha Plaisted Annick Pontious With much concentration, Dion Gore listens to another of Miss Thompson’s lectures.

Compared to their former middle schools, Potomac was a much larger and more exciting atmosphere. Along with the new challenges of high school, the freshmen encountered many problems, most of them small. Among the difficulties faced by the new class were forgetting their schedule and learning how to use their lockers. The biggest problem that was faced, though, was finding their way through the halls and the crowds. However, in addition to their confusion, freshmen were also having good times. Over the summer, friends had lost touch with one another and the first day of school was like a reunion. Catching up with the latest gossip; getting over sum¬ mer boredom; and meeting new people a lso added to the excitement of the freshmens’ first day. The first year in high school carried many new responsibilities along with these, there came many lasting memories. With intense concentration, Cindy Stebbins works on an English assignment.

Candids 111 Part of what makes Potomac so unique is the comfortable relationship between its teachers and its students, as shown by Mr. Levine and three of his best students. The faculty of Potomac High School is an important part of the past as well as the future of our school. Our faculty includes the teachers and administration as well as secretaries, custodians and cafeteria staff. The teachers teach us the things we need to know for our future. By learning what they teach, we are the ones rewarded. The administration keeps the school running and makes sure the students are kept in line. Besides being important to the educational side of the school, the faculty par¬ ticipates in the social aspect as well. At school events, they collect tickets, handle money, plan, and act as chaperones. In their participation, they are sometimes the main event of fund raisers such as the Faculty Follies and the Fashion Show. Often we take for granted what is so readily given to us. However, without facul¬ ty members, Potomac would not exist. These people are the foundation of our school. Although many hours might be spent by students in completing their homework, teachers spend even more time grading it. Here, Mr. McCoart patiently checks through one of his student ' s work. Without secretaries, the administrators’ job would be vir¬ tually impossible. As Mrs. Lockett’s secretary, Mrs. Winebarger is kept quite busy with the business part of Potomac High School. In order to relieve the tedium of the faculty the week before school started for students, the administration threw a barbecue. For this, Mr. Outman spent four years in college! Not only do teachers teach, but they also sponsor stu¬ dent activities. As a coach of the football team, Mr. Maloney spent many hours after school working with the students. Mr. Cameron enjoys a cup of coffee in the morning to help keep him awake. Even P.E. teachers need a little boost of energy occasionally! Faculty 113 Typing skill is an important part of an administrator’s job. John Bass uses a whole hand instead of just one finger! Displaying his skill with a pair of scissors, Bill Brown proves there is more to be¬ ing an Administrative Aide than just disciplining students’ contrary to popular belief. v u U , -Q O ■ - O .c a. Although cooking skill is not a requirement for becoming an Administrator, Aaron Jordan found it very helpful when he played chef for the faculty during their cookout last summer. Paperwork comes with the territory of administration. Ann Lockett faces her share with a smile even though if she sees the top of her desk, she won’t recog¬ nized it! Jack of All Trades To most students at Potomac Senior High School, the name Mr. Ferrebee is associated with authority; he is the principal of the school and somewhat of a mystery. However, there is more to this man than most students realize. Mr. Robert Ferrebee spent his childhood on a farm near the beautiful Shenandoah River. His college career took him to Berea College in Kentucky where he earned his Bachelor’s degree in mathematics. He then moved on to Virginia Polytechnic Institute where he obtained his Masters degree. After graduation, he served in the Army for four years but decided this life was not for him. Following his wife’s suggestion, Mr. Ferrebee took up the teaching profession in 1970, alth ough he says he never really had and intention of being a teacher. For ten years he taught mathematics at Parkside Middle School before becoming assis¬ tant principal at Osbourne Park High School. Then, on January 4, 1982, Mr. Ferrebee became head principal at Potomac. His outside interests include darts, running, and even video and computer games. However, his biggest hobby, what he calls his obsession,” is computers; he could sit at the computer for hours at a time and never get bored. In fact, he has played a major role in the computerization of Potomac. His expertise helped get wrestling scores, the master schedule, parking stickers and locker assignments all onto the computer and into the school’s system. There is more to our principal than just authority; there is a per¬ sonal side as well. He really is a “real people” person. 114 Faculty Fran Bacon Special Education Carolyn Baker Guidance Gloria Barrett Science Math Tim Bass Science Jennifer Bates Math Jessie Blalock In-school Suspension Jean Cahall Distributive Education Pamela Cakora Foreign Language William Cameron Physical Education Ed Campbell Physical Education Dave Carr Distributive Education Pat Carter Bookkeeper Larry Casey Music Gloria Cash Foreign Language Ron Clarke Physical Education Claudia Cunningham Math Richard Dill Music Pat Droves Guidance Faculty 115 Many a dreary day of several students ' lives was brightened by the cheery smile of Mr. Gussie.

She was the recipient of the prestigious Agnes Meyers Outstanding Teacher Award for Prince William County which is sponsored by the Washington Post. Fourteen other teachers were similarly honored — one from each local Metro jurisdiction school system. Competition was keen, and it is certain that those chosen were as Miss Cash would put it, “la creme de la creme’’ of the teaching profession. Receiving an award for her teaching skills is not a new ex¬ perience for Miss Cash. She was named Virginia Foreign Language Teacher of the Year in 1977, and in 1978 she receiv¬ ed Prince William’ County’s “Teacher of the Year” award. Gloria Cash has been teaching in Prince William County for 17 years during which she taught at Woodbridge High School and Graham Park Middle. The last five of these years she has spent at Potomac where she is currently chairman of the Foreign Language department. The relationship between Miss Cash and her students is very special. Her innovative and unique teaching methods have pro¬ ven effective with all of her students. She has also organized trips to France for her students during the summer which she has chaperoned and which have brought her closer to her students. Teachers of Gloria Cash’s caliber are few and far between and Potomac is very fortunate to have her. Her award was Faculty 117 well-deserved.

Well-known not only as a teacher but also as a journalist and a former supervisor, James McCoart is a diverse and interesting figure at Potomac. Mr. McCoart moved to Virginia at fourteen and grew up in Alex¬ andria. He graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University with a Bachelor’s degree in Distributive Education and a minor in history. He then proceeded to George Mason for his Master’s degree. In 1955, Mr. McCoart joined the Marine Corps and saw active duty in Vietnam as an intelligence officer in the infantry. After twenty years of service, he retired and became involved in politics. In 1976, he was elected supervisor of the Neabsco district in order to help the people of the county. When he had a heart- attack in 1981, he decided a change of lifestyle was needed. At that point, he entered the teaching profession. Having always wanted to be a teacher, Mr. McCoart finds life at Potomac well-suited to him. He believes the students are “super intelligent,” with a lot of potential and are a joy to teach. Mr. McCoart is also a writer for the Potomac Mews. Because of his past experience in politics and his knowledge of the county, the newspaper asked him to write a column. Any subject could be covered in it with the only requirements being that he ensure ac¬ curacy and put some emphasis on the political happenings of the area. For one year, McCoart has been both teacher and jour¬ 118 Faculty nalist. However, the two activities never conflict because his ar¬ ticles run only once or twice a week, at his discretion, and only take about an hour to write. In addition, he is also the assistant coach of the Freshman basketball and football teams. Because he plays such an active part in life at Potomac and in the community, James McCoart has proven to be a very valuable asset to us all. Applauding after a terrific play, Mr. McCoart inspired the Freshman basketball team on to bigger and better things. His school spirit is always evident.

However, during the rest of the year her energies are devoted to her Special Ed students at Potomac. A Crusade to Haiti While other teachers were off taking a break from teaching last summer, Louevenia Quash was using her teaching skills in a unique way. For one week in August, she went on a crusade to Haiti to preach Christianity to the local communities. Although Mrs. Quash went alone on her crusade, she found some advantages to this. She was able to visit private and public schools and have a more personal relationship with the counselors there and the students also. The behavior of the students she worked with impressed her greatly; there were ab¬ solutely no disciplinary problems because school is a privilege there and the students were very respectful toward their teachers. She found them “eager, receptive, and willing to learn’’ which was a delight for her. Since 1972, Mrs. Quash has been a missionary and she has decided to organize her own crusade with a few other people to go to Haiti again next year. Through her hard work and devo¬ tion, she has achieved significant results, and Potomac can be proud of her.

Mr. Godwin and his cup are in¬ separable friends during these early hours. 122 Faculty Cafeteria workers are responsible for providing students with a wide variety of food for their dining pleasure. Mary Perkins is one of these dedicated people who perform this task. Not Just a Place to Eat Lunch was not just a time to eat. It was also a chance to escape the drudgeries of the school day and socialize with friends. Because of the manner of the lunch shifts, some students were even able to take a quick glance over the notes that they were in the middle of taking a test on. Students had a choice of either the a la carte line, where they could buy snacks, or the full lunch line. This year, the prices were lowered from 85C to 75 and meal tickets intro¬ duced to better accommodate the full lunch buyers. Cafeteria food has always been the target of criticism and sarcasm. Comments like “What in the world is that?!” and replies like “Mystery meatloaf.” are commonplace. However, somehow the food keeps getting bought and eaten every day. This year some new items were added to the a la carte menu such as yogurt and assorted ice creams. Pizza also started to be offered every day because of its popularity with the students. However, junk foods such as potato chips were taken off the menu. The custodians also played a major role in the cafeteria scene. Without them, students would have been wading through various items of garbage and rotting food shortly after the beginning of school. Fortunately, they are there to keep the cafeteria and school a pleasant place for students to enjoy. Smiling broadly, Alvin Howard seems to be enjoying his job as head custo¬ dian. He, along with the other custodians, is in charge of the maintenance of Potomac. Keeping the floors of the school clean is a huge task for the custodial staff. However, this thought didn’t seem to bother Willie Chavis as he goes about his job with a smile. Faculty 123 During the class play, Christy Mackey, David Snyder and Nolan Malone manage to display their ex¬ cellent acting ability. Their performance, coupled with that of the rest of the cast, make the play a great success. Exhibiting their extensive musical talents, Dean Furman and Mike Kvenberg run through another routine practice session. Contrary to popular belief, these “dry runs’’ serve a worthwhile purpose. Concentrating on something hard, Nicole Ro mano sits through yet another truly gripping science lecture. All ef¬ forts paid off in the end, as did those of her friends, Becky Sloan and Diane Forsythe. 124 Activities Academics Extracur — What? Yes, right! Extracurricular activities. Those things which you could partake in during what little spare time you had. But it did enrich your academic prowess. Yes, you too could become a member of a club, academically-minded organization, band or vocally-oriented group. Let me expand on this thought. Take, for instance, band. There were three bands and an orchestra to choose from. As for singing groups, there were again three to choose from, as well as the Camarata Singers. But let us not forget clubs. Potomac had the clubs to satisfy your every desire. These included Key Club, DECA, VICA, SCA Reps, etc. However, we have not lost sight of the importance of academics the very idea school is based on. Yes, as unappealing as it was, we must think of that. Without academics, think how boring the days would have been . . . An important part of the marching band’s talent is clarinet player Annette Widener. Perfor¬ mances of the band during half-time help to keep the stands entertained.

Keyed Up to Serve The Key Club had many objectives this year. One goal was to develop in¬ itiative and leadership and to prepare for useful citizenship. Serving the school and community plus cooperating with the principal were also important. Included in activities were selling mums for Homecoming, canned food drives for the Red Cross at Thanksgiv¬ ing and Christmas, donating clothes for A.C.T.S., a Dance-A-Thon and the Miss Potomac Pageant. There was also the Capital District Convention at Virginia Beach, April 6-8. The Key Club was led by Mr. Bass and Jon Davis — President; Mike Doyle — Vice-President; Kim Dowd — Secretary; Rob Dulin — Treasurer; Scott Molinari — Sgt.-at-Arms; Mia Alexander — Chairman of the Board; Ashley Lehman — Lt.

They participated in fruit cake sales at Christmas, sponsored a dance in conjunction with the Debate Club and prepared for, and attended, the District Convention. The club was sponsored by Ms. Fontana and was led by Mike Selgelid as president, Dane Puckett — vice- president, Michelle Kanche — secretary, Cory Puckett — treasurer, Tina Evans — sergeant-at-arms, Karen Waggoner — Chaplain and Allison Stewart — historian.

Students must not only have excellent grades but also display these qualities to be accepted into this very selective club. The process a student must go through to become a member of the Honor Society is more complicated than most people think. First a student must have the necessary grade point average, at least a 3.5 for juniors and a 3.3 for seniors. No sophomores or freshmen may be ac¬ cepted. Then, the teachers who know the student vote on whether they consider him to have the qualities to be a member of the National Honor Society or not. The votes are then screened by the sponsors, Mrs. Polk and Mrs. Emmons, and by Mr. Fer- rebee and the new members are chosen. All of this is kept top secret so that the tap¬ ping ceremony will be a truly special occasion. This year’s ceremony was held in the fall instead of the spring to give the seniors who were to be inducted the opportunity to have the Honor Society on their college applications and to give the juniors the chance to put the Honor Society on their class rings. Being a member of the National Honor Society is, indeed, an honor. It is a symbol of the excellence, both academic and extra-curricular, for which Potomac is rapidly becoming well-known. 128 NHS In alphabetical order: Tim Anderson, Tammy Armstrong, Susan Barger, Bapi Bhattacharjee, Kelly Beckman, Diane Benevides, Laura Best, Nicole Bryan, Bill Chapman, Bo Colcombe, Michelle Conley, Cindy Cunniff, Scott Dadson, Shannon Dadson, Sarah Davis, Derrick Dayton, Marisa de los Santos, Andy Dearing, Noel Dickover, Donna Dorton, Rob Dulin, Laurie Duncan, Brian Ervin, Kelly Fisher, Katie Flynn, Mike Flynn, Luz Griffin, Laura Hambrick, John Helsley, Katy Hernandez, Melanie Hernandez, Kelly Hilton, Laura Hudak, Kyle Jackson, Diana Jones, Alice Kalaskas, Bobby Kraus, Jim Lascady, Liz Lawior, Cindy Loveland, Thao Martine, Linda Maziekus, Alex¬ ander Melville, Christine Michelini, Liz Monroe, Bess Morris, Kim Morrison, Bryan Nelson, Dominic Nicholas, Caitlin O ' Leary, Michelle Olio, Brooke Pennington, Brent Phillips, Rosie Robinette, Steve Secord, Mike Selgelid, Joe Shearer, Brian Singstock, Elissa Singstock, David Snyder, Kelly Trumpower, Andra Touloumes, Peggy Wallace, Amy Wallich, Lisa West, Kevin West, Annette Widener, Christine Wolter, Rene Woo Bridging the Gap The gap between the student body and the administration is bridged by the Student Cooperative Association.

Sponsor, Miss Ginsberg, saw that all went well with productions and the Talent Show. The Club experimented with the idea of student directors. Letting students direct “A Night of Comedy — 3 One-Act Plays,” last fall. The Spring show also directed by a student proved to be very successful. The officers this year included Mike Kvenberg — President, Robby O’Neill — Vice President, Susan Barron — Secretary, and Jennifer Craig — Treasurer. The of¬ fice of Historian was held by Bonnie Reed and club photographer was Danny Lee. These people, along with members of the club, were active in stage managing, make-up, directing, lights, and sound. All members were more active than ever and brought a very productive year to the Drama Club of Potomac. The larger the smile, the brighter the day.

Passport to Learning An active year was programmed by members of the Foreign Language Club as they planned cultural activities for the students and their families. Meetings were held once a month during activity period and twice a month after school. The club officers were Richard DuBreuil — presi¬ dent, Lisa Londino — vice president, Chris¬ ty Mackey — secretary, and Suzanne Ter¬ razas — treasurer, with Mrs. Cakora and Mrs. Stone serving as sponsors. The club provided activities to educate the school and community and to create informal situations in which the students could share their foreign language and cultural knowledge. In the Homecoming Parade, club members placed third for their float, “It’s a Small World.” They sponsored the first annual Foreign Language Festival in the spring. In the club meetings, communi¬ ty citizens shared their experiences in foreign countries. Members of the club hope that, through their efforts, students come to recognize the need to learn and appreciate the language and culture of countries other than their own.

Students whose papers demonstrate creativity and originalty are submitted to the club, where they compose a booklet of exceptional works to be sold. The club is sponsored by Mrs. Moller and has, through much effort, established a memory for all students. The publication of this book by the “Out of the Blue staff has many steps.

The members decid¬ ed to focus on the forensics activities rather than their past debate format. Sponsors Mrs. Eden and Mr. Kite work¬ ed hard to get members ready for the competitive and eloquent art of speech, but the students gained most of their needed knowledge and experience at their first meet in Charlottesville in December. Club president Mike Selgelid has not only helped members of the club, advised the sponsors on certain matters, and been an active orator, bur also supervised many of the club’s fund raisers. The society hopes to continue its participation in forensics and gain the essential experience to become a major force among Virginia high schools in the art of speech.

At Potomac 4 classes are offered in Marketing and Distributive Education. Fundamentals of Marketing (DE I) was a basic course on DE for students with career interests in sales and marketing. Marketing (DE I) was a beginning cooperation program in which students combined class room instruction with supervised on the job training. All students were required to have 540 hours of work. Advanced Marketing (DE ... f III) was the advanced program in which i ■ £■ students dealt in depth the development of marketing competencies necessary for full time employment and job advancements. Finally, Fashions Merchandising was offered to studentw with a career interest in fashion merchandising. The class covered career possibilities, merchandising, and sales.

It takes commitment and training to become all the best you can be in all respects. That’s why students are getting involved in their own professional organization. That program is called the Vocational Industrial Clubs of America (VICA). VICA is a nationwise organization ser¬ ving the students of vocational education enrolled in a public high school and post-secondary trade, industrial, technical, and health occupation programs. VICA members know that their membership helps them to make a difference in their school, community and in themselves. VICA members were proud of what they were doing and were having fun while they do it. The Industrial Cooperative Training program (ICT) offered high school students the opportunity to receive valuable training in one of the many career fields within the areas of trade, industrial, technical resources of both the high school and the technical industrial com¬ plex of the community. Business, industrial and professional establishments provide part-time employment and supervised train¬ ing to ICT students during school hours, while the high school fur¬ nished the technical subject matter related to the student’s occupa-i tion and a coordinator for the program. The program’s main purpose was to provide each student with occupational experience and related instruction to prepare them to accept employment and be a productive worker. 134 DEC A VICA The purposes of DECA are symbolized by the four points of the diamond that Like most other clubs, DECA has officers who forms the DECA emblem. The four points represent Vocational Understanding, lead and represent the other members. The 1983 Civic Consciousness, Social Intelligence, and Leadership Development. 1984 officers are: President, Julie Gretencord; Vice President, Sean Ruf; Secretary, Rita Alston; Treasurer, Debbie Buckner; Photographer, Danny Stanley. n The Distributive Education Clubs of America (DECA) was a national youth organization for DE students. Through active par¬ ticipation in local, state, and na¬ tional activities, DECA members developed a better understanding of the business world. The DECA program included activities such as sales projects, banquets, recreational activities, district meetings and participation in com¬ munity projects and the DECA competitive events program. : , - ' VICA members listen intently to the speaker at one of their meetings.

Their sponsors Mrs. Fleming (FHA), Mr. Edmonds (AIASA), and Mrs. Haun and Mrs. Findley (FBLA) try to give the club members an in¬ teresting schedule of events and ac¬ tivities to attend and participate in. Among those planned this year for the FHA club were a Christmas Bake Sale, a Cookbook Sale in February, an Easter Bake Sale, a Mother-Daughter Banquet in May, and a trip to Kings Dominion in June. The AIASA club had a Valentine Dance in February, a car wash in April, and an Industrial Arts Display at Manassas Mall during Vocational Education Week from February 13 to February 17. This club also used its vast supply of energies and talents in the production of the Potomac Paw Power Note Pads. Not to be outdone, the FBLA club went to a workshop dur¬ ing a conference at Germanna Com¬ munity College, the regional competi¬ tion at Germanna, and the state com¬ petition at Roanoke. The students have received a great deal of worth out of these clubs and have learned skills that they will take with them after they finish high school.

Taking advantage of this, Jerry Hayes works with the computer. 138 Science Computer Club APPLIED SKILLS Boosting its membership up to 60, the Computer Club offered a variety of skills to be learned and applied. Mrs. Szady was the sponsor. The members were divided into three different groups: 1) No previous ex¬ perience, 2) some previous experience, 3) good knowledge of computers. They then learned to program by practicing during the activity periods. At the end of January, the club invited Bell Howell to be a guest speaker. They talked about computers and engineering : careers for interested members. In its first year, the Science Club be¬ came one of the most active clubs in the school. Mrs. Shipman was the sponsor. During the spring, the club brought about Teacher Appreciation Week, and during the winter they sold candy canes. The money was used for the Gas Chromatograph Science Department (Chemistry) and field trips. Besides sponsoring the annual Science Fair, the club had many guest speakers. The topics were on such subjects as Sur¬ vival After Nuclear War, Acid Rain, Evidence of Extraterrestrial Life, and In¬ frared Radiation.

The Photography Club photographed pic¬ tures and The Art Club painted and created them. The Photography Club at Potomac was headed by Mr. Kadis and aided by Mr. Prifti. The purpose of the club was to teach and allow students to process and develop their own pictures. Each student had to have access to their own 35 mm camera and was allowed to use all available school equipment for a $5.00 due fee. The Art Club at Potomac was headed by art teacher Mr. Outman. The club met during activity period and after school. Their main goal was to raise funds for new art equipment for the art department. Though this year it had few members, the Art Club is growing and expanding. PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB: Front Row: Christine Boeger, Mike Dean, Ken Yaeger, David Baird, Kathy Nicely, Charlotte Acker.

Art Club Photography Club Stroke of Endeavor For the past three years, Potomac crew has been working its way to becoming a competitive power. Of seven categories to race in, they have worked their way up the ladder from the bottom. Their biggest ac¬ complishment was their first win last season at the Occoquan Springs. Although that was their only win, they were able to compete in the nationals of the Scholastic Rowing Association. This year they moved up to the junior varsity level of competi¬ tion and travelled to Philadelphia for the prestigious Stotesbury Regetta. A change of coaches every year and equipment pro¬ blems have taken their toll on the team, but with the persistant efforts put forth by all members, crew received the recognition it so well-deserved. Row, row, row, your boat, but maybe not so gently. Brian Lee, Paul Edelstein and Andrew Jacobson have to row across the lake every day during crew season. As the tension mounts, Potomac’s Crew Team show their pride as they pass the judges in the T.C. Williams Invitational. Easy as it looks? It’s not. The Potomac Crew Team even spends Saturday during the season working out on the Potomac River. 142 Crew Autographs 143 Marching to Stardom Have you ever seen a halftime show? Then you know that it was mainly made up of our marching band. The marching band provided entertainment and led the stands in enthusiasm and spirit. The band was led by Mr. Dill along with the drum majors. It has come a long way in its short five year history. Each year, the band has progressed slowly but surely. The marching band has been faced with many problems, but this year the most po¬ tent was lack of experience. The band had no upperclassmen to learn from and im¬ itate. Frustration grew among the members, but they continued to work hard and diligently to make the band a success. And what a success it came to be! The marching band received a rating of “good” at state competitions which was a big ac¬ complishment for a group of their ex¬ perience. This year they travelled to ODCJ for a state competition and marched in several parades, receiving awards from both Quantico and Dumfries. The band consisted of 57 players, 16 bandfront members (Flags and Rifles), and two drum majors who were chosen by audition. All the members attended both games and practices. The latter were vital for them for they needed to get every note down; preci¬ sion was a great part of their performance. Parents also played an important role in their success. To raise money, they sold Band Booster buttons and provided both moral and financial support. Without the Flags, the marching band would not be complete. Lisa Pittman stands erect as she awaits the beat to raise her flag. Dazzling performances by Potomac’s majorette, Diane Biddle, at football games kept the crowds captivated. f � - ■ i ' . i N kSS Many honors have been achieved by the marching band. Members of the band prove these honors to be well deserved. An important part of participating in Rifles is keep ing in step.

These, in order, were Christmas pyramid concert, fall, prefestival, and Spring concerts. The or¬ chestra also performed at Festival. In addi¬ tion, students were selected to perform on May third and fourth at the James Madison “select string thing.” Hard work and extra effort paid off for the Treble and Varsity choirs as they per¬ formed successfully in the Christmas and- Spring concerts. The treble choir also per¬ formed at Festival and went caroling in Occoquan. Intense concentration is required to perform a successful Orchestra concert.

During summer camp, Faith Holcombe and six members of the Prowler staff (Susan Ariola, Dawn Bullen, Karyn Greisen, Lisa Hayes, Bev Manderville, and Alicia Toney) competed with forty-four other schools. Awards were given for en¬ thusiasm, copy, layoOt, theme, and best overall. After working hard for four days, the staff won the “Best Overall Award.” Kitzi Taylor and four members of the journalism staff (Chuck Crosby, Dave Snyder, Dale Triplett, and Rebo Zacharias) went to the Virginia High School League weekend workshop at the University of Virginia. They won a First Place ranking for the Potomac Messenger. Advisor Kit¬ zi Taylor left Potomac early in the year and was replaced by Penny Lake as head of the journalism department. In her third year as yearbook advisor, Faith Holcombe said, “It’s a hassle sometimes but I’m really pleased at the quality of the work the kids are turning out.” Assisting Diane Benevides and Dave Snyder is Kit¬ zi Taylor. She was later replaced as Journalism Spon¬ sor by Penny Lake. THE YEARBOOK STAFF Front Row: Lisa Hayes, Kelly Beckman, Shawn Sebren, Tom Corbitt.

When laying out a newspaper, one must be careful and precise, as Rebo Zacharias shows. He was News Editor for the Potomac Messenger. Newspaper Yearbook 153 A drama? A comedy? “Harvey” was a lit¬ tle of both. Not only did this production make us laugh at the little absurdities of ourselves but also, admire those of others. The play cast Nolan Malone as Elwood P. Dowd — and eccentric gentleman who is the only one able to see Harvey — a six foot white rabbit who seems to have the answer for everything. Valerie Manderville not only served as an inspiring director but played the role of Veta Simmons — Elwood’s estranged sister. The play re¬ ceived good reviews and provided its ac¬ tors the needed experience to perform on stage. The class of ’84 did an outstanding job in producing this play. Doctors, Chris McVay and David Snyder, try to diagnose Elwood P. Dowd’s situation while Gina Burleson and Christy Mackey assist. Exit Stage Left Elwood’s sister, played by Vai Manderville, explains to nurse, Christy Mackey that her brother really has some screws loose. Jay Johnson cunningly moves in on Julie Slade. All the actors in the play did an outstanding job. 154 Harvey Harvey, a play put on by the senior class, received many rave reviews. Nolan Malone, playing the lead, and I Donna Tiplady dazzle the audience with their superb performance.

Here Dawn Bullen, Julie Lamb, Nolan Malone, Toni Austin, and Michele Olio plan for a session on drug abuse. Made up of high school juniors and seniors, the Teen Counselling program is designed to provide positive role models for fifth and sixth graders. For half an hour every other week each teen counseling group conducts a session to their assigned fifth or sixth grade class. The reasoning behind the program is the concept that high school students can have a positive influence on elementary and middle school children. These children admire high school students and can relate to them more easily than they can to any other group older than themselves. This program is designed not only to provide information on subjects such as drug and alcohol abuse but also to give the students a chance to ask questions and ex¬ press concerns about growing up in general — things they may have trouble in expressing to their parents or teachers. Providing sound information and displaying a good role model for these children may prepare them for the time when they, too, will have to make deci¬ Front Row: Jon Davis, Yuri Lazar, Diana Jones, Cindy Cunniff, Shannon Matherly, Karen Spates, Mark Hen- shaw, Michele Olio, Beth Wright, Cathy Dutton, Julie Lamb, Katie Flynn, Vickey Owles, Cindy Babb Second Row: Brian Singstock, Traci Schrack, Val Manderville, Regina Martin, Bev Manderville, Kim Overton, Jenny Boyd, Sheila Griggers, Kim Sisk, Marisa de los Santos, Lisa Hayes, Toni Austin, Lisa Lascody, Lisa Zawoiski Third Row: Susan Barron, Cindy Loveland, Lisa Londino, Angie Peguese, Michelle Goodrich, Rene Woo, Nolan Malone, Sharon Arcaro, Kathy Smith, Richard Asbery, Scott Molinari, Dennis Otter, David King Fourth Row: Michael Cobb, Jennene Miller, Kim Britt, Stephanie Wise, Mylene Rowe, Amanda Gaddy, Kelly Johnson, Dawn Bullen, Mike Selgelid, Scott McKenzie, Scott Kujawa, Robert Semper, Mark Vowell, Scott Stirling Back Row: Glen March, Chris McVay, Christine Campbell, Christine Michelini, Kathleen Delmore, Kevin West, Tammy Valentine, Debbie Lough, Christine Malloy Not Pictured: John Baldwin, Diane Benevides, Sharon Bryan, Scott Dadson, Heidi Farber, Laura Hudak, Ashley Lehman, Sherri Marcini, Art Milbert, Maria Weis sions that will affect their lives.

Fun at the First Faculty Follies In March of 1983, the Class of ’84 spon¬ sored Potomac’s first Faculty Follies. The various skits were written by Robert Zacharias and Chuck Crosby. The event was directed by Julie Slade and Nolan Malone. Jill Holley was the emcee. The first scene was the “PSHS Faculty Symphonic Orchestra,” in which the par¬ ticipants played music in their own unique way. A record was played to make it sound authentic even if it didn’t look it. The class of ’83 wrote the mock ”9 to 5” scene, in which Mr. Freeze played a Dolly Parton look-alike. In the ‘‘Saturday Night Live” scene, Mr. Jenkins opened with a Chevy Chase-like approach. Then, Ms. Fontana played Ro- seanne Roseanna Danna, Ms. Haun did Jane Curtin and Mrs. Diloreto did Laraine Newman. Also shown were the famous “whiners,” two of which were Mrs. Stone and Mr. Cummins. Teachers were also encouraged to display the more serious side of their talents. Mrs. Bennett took advantage of the opportunity and sang two songs, much to the delight of the audience. “Kojerk,” a parody of “Kojak,” featured Mr. Kitchen as the skin-headed policeman and Mr. Jenkins as Left-Handed Looey, the One-Fingered Snitch. The scene was about a woman (Ms. Cash) whose body was found and it was later discovered that Ms. Fontana did her in, in order to get her job as Head of the Foreign Language Department. The Follies ended with a faculty can-can with all the participants dancing. The show was a big success and lots of fun for everyone. As Chevy Chase, Johnny Jenkins introduces the Saturday Night Live skit. Others in the scene were Ms. Fontana, Ms. Haun, and Mrs. DiLoreto. In the “9 to 5” farce, Mrs. Cakora welcomes the new “girl” to the office, a Dolly Parton look-alike played by Mr. Freeze. This scene was written by the class of ’83. 158 Faculty Follies The opening act was the “PSHS Faculty Symphonic Orchestra” in which the members had the opportuni¬ ty to show off their “musical talents. Later, Mrs. Bennett sang two songs on a more serious note. Left-Handed Looey the One-Fingered Snitch (Mr. Jenkins) gives Kojerk (Mr. Kitchen) the latest news for which he receives a lollipop. In this scene, the students acted out what they thought went on in the exclusive faculty lounge. Here, Debbie Scrogum, as Ms. Jones, tells Tammy Carter, as Mrs. Pearsall, all about her dog. In the “Kojerk” scene, Mr. Jenkins and Mr. Kitchen were joined by Mrs. Bennett as the Sergeant and Mr. Edmonds as the Lieutenant. The dead” body belong¬ ed to Ms. Cash, who was done in” by Ms. Fontana. The finale was a can-can in which all the faculty par¬ ticipants danced. A lot of the show was improvised and it was a big hit with the crowd. Faculty Follies 159 Lifting the Burden Lifting a burden can be a strenuous job. The Weightlifters and Teacher’s Aides both had their different weights to lift. The weightlifters worked out by “pumping iron,’’ and the aides took the work load off of the teachers. Aides were responsible for various duties. Some of the tasks the aides performed included recording grades, grading papers, running errands, running off dit¬ tos, and any other needs the teacher might have. The aides of Potomac were dedicated students and were very valuable asset to the faculty of our school. With any sport, dedication was the key to success. Often, athletes spent long hours practicing and training to perfect their skills. Weightlifting was one type of training that was beneficial to many sports. Runners and football players lifted weights to build speed while baseball players lifted to increase hitting power. Potomac’s weight room included Universal as well as Free Weights. Each machine was designed to build up a different muscle. Strict weightlifting programs that were design¬ ed for a particular sport were often followed by Potomac’s athletes and sometimes accompanied by a strict diet as with the wrestlers. All in all, weightlifting was one aspect of sports that people rarely consider. But without weightlifting, Potomac’s sports would not have been of the calibur that it is. Office aide, Mike The office of Potomac is responsible for, among other things, late arrivals and early dismissals. Johnson, records check-in and check-out times. Recording grades is one of the many jobs that an aide performs. Tony Manama records typing timings for Mr Freeze. 60 Aides Through expression, Richard Dubriel shows the strain and exertion that is required to manuever on the parallel bars. The parallel bars are only one of many exercises in the weight room. Grimacing because of the heavy weights, Sean Copley strains to lift his burden. Many Potomac weightlifters can lift up to 300 pounds. The weight room is not only open to students but to teachers also. Jeff Belcher and Mr. Freeze work out on available equipment. Weightlifting 161 The C’s Have It After high school, students have a wide variety of careers to choose from. Many students from Potomac have enrolled in a class known as cosmetology that will even¬ tually become their career. These students will, from this class, receive a license that enables them to be a cosmetologist. Even though cosmetology students travel to Gar-Field each day, the training that they receive is well worth it. There they learn the basic fundamentals of hairdressing and manicuring so that after high school, they can practice their profession. In the field of construction, there are many classes that are available to in¬ terested students. Such classes include housewiring, auto mechanics, and in¬ dustrial arts. Concentration is the key to success in any course. Shown here is Yvonne Thacker working diligently to finish her assignment. Even though students have to travel to Garfield, the benefits of cosmetology are well worth it. Here Princess Foster practices the new technique that she has learned. 162 Academics Some aspects of industrial arts can be dangerous. Here, proper safety glasses must be used by Terry Dixon while welding. Much modern equipment is available to the in¬ dustrial arts students at Potomac. The band saw is used by Jimmy Martin to finish his current project. Students Preston Stanley, Greg Hughes, Ricky Greshman, David Smith, and Joe Walker gather around a lawn mower engine to listen carefully to a lecture given by Mr. Greg Prifti. The class studied all different types of engines throughout the year. Industrial Arts 163 With intent concentration, Eric Ruiz tries out his prepared program. Some of these programs are quite lengthy, numbering up to 35 or 40 steps. Watching secretary Mrs. Murch program attendance into the computer is Jeanna Tillman. Computers are becoming a necessity at Potomac and in everyday life. In order to program computers, training is necessary. Advanced Senior Math is one of the classes that trains students, like Celeste Rogers, to work with computers. I 164 Academics ! Looking Into the Future Students have become aware of the future and what it has to offer. With this in mind, Advanced Senior Math and Advanc¬ ed Biology have gained popularity with Potomac Students. Advanced Senior Math students worked with computers, learning how to use and program them. Advanced Senior Math is a challenging class that uses the students’ natural skills as well as acquired ones. Advanced Biology is an extension of General Biology. The same concepts are used but on a much widened scale. An ex¬ ample of an Advanced Biology lab was the chicken imprinting or “chicken lab.” In this experiement, students were given a baby chick to psychologically imprint. The idea was that each student should be thought of as “mommy” to the baby chick. The final test was to see if the baby chick would come when it was called by its name. During the chicken experiment, students become quite attached to their baby chick. Carefully holding his new found pet is Chris Washburn. A major goal of the chicken experiment is to teach the chick new things. Julie Slade, one of Mr. Fulp’s Ad¬ vanced Biology students, patiently teaches her new chick. Academics 165 Panthers were prowling everywhere this year. At baseball games, they displayed their skill at the bat; at football games, they pounced on their opponents. Even in the stands, Panthers could be seen cheering their team on, full of the spirit and vitality for which Panthers are so well known. Whether playing in the actual game or sitting in the stands cheering the team on, the Potomac Panthers took part in all the sporting events of the year and proved once and for all that Panthers could, indeed, play and win. Laura Hudak is off and running to gather speed before her partner arrives to give her the baton. Timing is critical in a relay race; the runner must be in perfect sync in order for the baton to be passed properly. 166 Athletics The Panthers had an excellent volleyball team this year. Johnna Branham shows some of this winning style as her teammate Missy Cadigan looks on. The art of bunting, as displayed by Rodge Emmons, is a necessary element in the game of baseball and was well-used during the past season. Pouncing on his opponent, Lee Wilson brings him to the ground. Pete Pan- iazides watches closely to make sure he does not escape. Athletics 167 STATE CHAMPS The Virginia State Baseball Cham¬ pionship found a home at Potomac when the Panther Varsity Baseball team achieved possibly the greatest single feat in the school’s four year history by winning the state championship. Coach Jerry Gardziel stated, “There were no individual standouts on the team, and everyone contributed equally.’’ Dan Raley, with Tim Raley, led the team in batting, with averages of .565 and .530 respectively. Doug Johnson, Dan Raley, John Oravec and Bryan Luedtke led the team in homeruns with five each. Three of the players received college scholar¬ ships: Tim Raley — Wichita State, John Oravec — Ohio Dominican, and Bobby Patenaude — Edison Junior College. Over the course of the season, the team set many records. Among these were: Most regular season homeruns — 30, Most consecutive hits in one inning — 4, Most homeruns in one inning by a single player — 2 by Danny Raley, Most runs in a single game — 30, Most runs in one season — 204, First undefeated season in the Commonwealth District, Most hits in a single game — 26 in¬ cluding 9 homeruns, Most batters in a single inning — 19, Most runs in one in¬ ning — 15, Most “at bats’’ by one player in a single inning — 3 by Matt Schwirtz, Most runs batted in by a single player — 11 by Bryan Luedtke, and First undefeated freshman pitcher in the Commonwealth District — Greg Margheim. A .565 batting average made Danny Raley one of the outstanding contributors to the state Champions’ team. Raley, who doubled as both pitcher and shortstop, had a 6-0 pitching record. With a determined look, third baseman Doug Johnson rounded first base. His hit helped run up the score 29-1 against W. T. Woodson. Assuming a ready position, Bryan Luedtke prepared to line another basehit. As the designated hitter, Luedtke hit five homeruns during the season. 168 Baseball nt : • % Striking out another batter is pitcher Greg Margheim.

Baseball 169 In his final year at Potomac, Tim Raley was named to the first team All-District, first team All-Region and first team All- Metro. And to top all that, he was named the All-Metro MVP! The four year starting catcher netted a .534 batting average and four home runs in his senior year at Potomac, which earned him a scholarship to Wichita State University in Kansas. A scholarship to Ohio Dominican College in Ohio went to first baseman John Oravec. A four-year starter at Potomac, Oravec hit .349 in 1983 and had five homeruns with twenty- five RBI’s. He also had twenty-five walks and ten stolen bases. In the state championship playoffs, Oravec hit .455 (5 for 11) and had two game winning RBI’s. Starting pitcher, Bobby Patenaude received a full baseball scholarship to Edison Junior Col¬ lege in Fort Myers, Florida. Patenaude, a four- year starter at Potomac, ended his senior year with an 8-0 record. In the Regionals last year, Bobby pitched a two-hitter over Pulaski and was named to the All-Metro second squad. jKk r - ■ wjk , 1 ------ dfgSL Jj Ik flifi ■ f JrW ' Of a . Am, ' : Wm UNDEFEATED!

Stars of the Future “A hard working group of guys who never said, ‘Die’.” was how junior varsity baseball coach Will Kitchen referred to his 1983 team. Kitchen added, ‘‘We started out slow, peaked at mid-season, then somewhat leveled off and reached our potential.” The team ended the season with a 5-9 record which did not reflect the hard work put forth by each team member. Catcher Scott Johnson was nam¬ ed Most Valuable Player; he and Jeff Belcher were both responsible for home runs hit during the ’83 season.

The team captured the district title, but failed at attaining the regional award. The team finished regular season play with a record of 8-1, suffering its only loss to Courtland. The whole team put forth stupendous effort to make the team reach its fullest potential. The key players who led the team to their victories were Doug Trenor, Joe Devaney, John Hurst, and Mark Haygood. The MVP award for the team went to Doug Trenor. Doug finishe; second in _ districts, first in regionals, and seventh a £ in the state of Virginia. Over the sum- ( | mer, Doug qualified for several tour- | naments.

The team suffered their only losses to Stonewall and Fauquier. Several of their games were shut-outs, and on one occasion, a game ended in a heartstopping shoot out. The team ranked second in the district at the season’s end, and went on to play in the District tournament. Their loss to Stonewall came as a heartbreaking disap¬ pointment especially to the seniors on the team. Throughout the season, the team played exceptionally well. Some outstanding per¬ formances were turned in by Glen Gay, George Hayward, Junho Chi, and goalie, Andy Buckon. Scott Kujawa received the Most Improved player award, and Glen Gay was named MVP.

The 1982-83 Season was the first J.V. season for Prince William County High Schools. The J.V. boys’ soccer team at Potomac finished the season with a 3-2-1 record. Coach Levine stated, “It was an in¬ teresting and exciting season. The most memorable moment was the 2-1 loss to Woodbridge. It came to a double over time shoot-out.” Mr. Levine also had this to say about his young team, “Soccer players are definitely a different breed. In my six years of coaching different sports, this was the best group of individuals I’ve ever come across.” Award winners set the tradition for the new J.V. team. One of the awards, MVP, was captured by Mike Waniel. The Most Goals award was won by Greg Nielson. The Most Improved award was captured by Jimmy Coker. There was also a private award within the team that was called the 9-Iron Award, which was won by Mike Cobb.

Being a new school, Potomac was still full of firsts, and soccer was no ex¬ ception. Both girls’ and boys’ soccer ex¬ panded with additions to their teams. In the spring of 1983, girls’ and boys’ J.V. soccer was added to the list of sports at Potomac. The girls’ J.V. team was under the coaching of Eliana Walker. For its first year of play, the team did remarkably well. The girls finished the season with a record of 2-3-1. All the games were hard-fought, and many were very close. The team practiced every day after school with diligence and dedication to improve and perfect their skills. At the end of the season, and during the tournament play, several girls were moved up to the Varsity team. These in¬ cluded Sharron Bryan, Susan Luedtke, Giorianna Malloy, and Gnhui Chi. The MVP award for the team went to Giorianna Malloy, while the MIP award went to Katrina Maddigan. The team also gave out an award of their own for the most spirited player. This went to Sharron Bryan. A thletics 179 Riding Out a Tough One Off to a slow start, the girls’ varsi¬ ty soccer team nevertheless perform¬ ed well against some of the top teams of the district. The up¬ perclassmen, led by Captain Angie Prudot and Co-Captain Michelle Charters generally dominated the young team. But freshmen Maria Brown and Beverly Williams con- tributed significantly to the team. With this young talent, the girls look forward to future seasons. This season being a soccer coaching first for Mrs. Munnel, she was able to bring to the team a fresh variety of new ideas and methods. Senior Angie Prudot was named Most Valuable Player. The Most Im¬ proved Player was Junior Lynda Hustead. While the season was badically a defensive one, the girls learned a lot and they look forward to next year with enthusiasm.

Statistics are important to every team. Miss Barnhart keeps track of the in¬ dividual performances while Annette Williams and Danielle Smith wait for the next race at the District meet. The 1983 season was a good one for the girls’ track team. Many seasoned veterans returned to break school records, several at their first meet. Some of the outstanding runners who made significant contributions to the team were Danielle Smith, Mylene Rowe, Elaine Morris, Kelly O’Connor, and Lisa Lohman. The team’s overall record was 2-31-1, but included many Personal Bests. The Most Improved Runner went to Elaine Morris who held three school records in the discus, 800 meter run, and the 1600 yard relay. The Most Valuable Player award, which was given to the runner that exhibited both leadership and athletic abilities, went to Senior Lisa Lohman.

Bill Fiske, Art Milbert, Ricky Welch, Kurt Lewis and Scott Stirling upheld high team standards. Qualifying for Regionals were Scott Griffea, Art Milbert, Ricky Welch, Tim Vinson, Bill Fiske and Jerry Ledlow. Going on to State were Scott Griffea and Jerry Ledlow. Scott Griffea earned the title of Mr. Track and Field. The Most Valuable award went to Donri Roberson, and Tony Anderson was Most Improved. 6th Place — Prestigious Haringer Relays 3rd Place — Stafford Relays 3rd Place — J.M.G.’s Rotary Relays 2nd Place — Rappahannock Relays Dual Tri Meet Record — 4 wins, 2 losses 6th Place — District Meet Another first place victory is in sight for Tim Vinson.

Boy’s Track 183 ACHIEVING EXCELLENCE Since its creation four years ago, the 1982-83 Boys’ Tennis team has had only one goal. This goal was to win the regional title and reach the state meet. This goal was attained this year in one of the finest seasons the Potomac Boys’ Tennis team has ever had. Ending the season with a 7-0 record, two players ended up being the dominant factor on the team.

Montgomery pursurer, Scott Griffea strides toward the endfield. The Panther offense was augmented by strong runners like Scott who excell at outdistancing their opposition. This year Panther football had a slow start, losing to their non-District com¬ petitors, Anacostia and Hopewell. They managed to come back in their first District game and won against Stonewall Jackson. Although they lost to Woodbridge, the young Panther team sprang back with a triple-winning blitz against Stafford, North Stafford, and the Homecoming opponent, H.D. Wood- son. After a temporary setback with Gar-Field, Potomac returned to their winning streak by defeating James Wood. The climax of the season was their defeat of 1 ranked Fauquier, 11- 0. This victory made the team co- District champions for the second year in a row. At the football banquet in November, many football players were recognized and given awards. However, one stood out from the rest: Fullback Paul Theriault won the well-deserved Mr. Panther award. A play is called by Paul Tiede while the offensive line prepares to run over the defensive line. Paul quarter- backed the Panthers to another winning season. Varsity Football 185 Potomac and H.D. Woodson players converge in a fight to gain the ball and field advantage.

The girls en¬ countered their fourth coach in as many years. Despite this, the girls never lost the desire to succeed as individuals and as a team. The new coach, Mr. Jenkins, taught them a valuable lesson when he told them, “You can take all the tennis lessons in the world, but the desire to win has to come from inside.’’ By the end of the season, every girl had stepped over the hump of not believing she could win. Bulwark of the team were Katie Flynn and Julie Slade; Katie won the award of Most Valuable Player. Carrie Moss came through the season with an undefeated record. Lulu Tierney and Teri King were 2 doubles winners and are expected to be 1 next year. “I was very pleased with the mental attitude of the team at the end of this year,” said Coach Jenkins. With intense concentration, Katie Flynn watches as her opponent winds up for another serve. Her ability to pay close attention on the court made Katie a fine player.

Potomac Harri ers are always first in spirit! Potomac’s Harriers have established a tradition — A TRADITION OF TEAM SPIRIT AND SUCCESS! Potomac Cross Country is now a respectable force in the State of Virginia. Effort, determination, desire, motivation are all terms characterizing the Potomac Cross Country teams. Thirty young men and women strove for a common goal — State. The boys team placed 9th in the state of Virginia, and the girls placed two in¬ dividuals as state qualifiers. The girls’ and boys’ teams also gained third place in the District Meet, which the boys repeated again a week later in the Regional meet. Both teams placed well in Cross Country Invitationals throughout the season. In¬ deed, the girls tired of the unprecedented fourth place finishes they continuously won! The future is bright with such fine runners as Bill Fishe, Dave Shive, John Hanklaw, Sean Connolly, Raul De Lao, and Erik Anderson. The girls appeared awesome with returning Cindy Ruffner, Suzi Paszly, Kelly O’Connor, Amy Cassady, and Rachel Eccleston. Potomac’s Cross Country season of 1983 can best be summarized by Tim Vinson’s quote: “My accomplishments aren’t im¬ portant this year as long as we get a tradi¬ tion going!” Through the leadership of Tim Vinson, a very successful runner himself, Steve Schaeffer, and Susan Ariola, the Potomac Harriers realized a dream of fun, success, and team spirit.

With a great deal of pride and deter¬ mination, the PSHS Varsity basketball team found a ray of hope. The Panthers were vastly improved from the previous season. High scorers for the team were forward Doug Misenko and center Paul Tiede who both made the list of Leading Commonwealth Scorers. Paul Tiede was also honored by being chosen Athlete of the Week.

Against a stiff defense, outside shots were relied on to break through for points. Establishing good defensive positions are Bobby Kraus and Todd Jenkins. Being in the right place at the right time in basketball can turn a defensive position into an offensive one. Watching intently are the coaches ' wives, Mrs. Maloney and Mrs. Clark.

Cindy Marrone and Christine Sowala were major factors in getting rebounds and starting the J.V. Fast Break.

Girls Varsity Basketball 205 STRAIGHT Another victorious season was ex¬ perienced by the Panther wrestling team. This part of the athletic program had the largest participation in Panther history, and the participants brought with them a great deal of talent. More than sixty young men were inside the gym every day for wrestling practice, and most participated in tournaments on weekdays and weekends. Coach Cameron stated, “We have the ability to beat anyone we wrestle because wrestling is more mental than physical. Our team goals include District and Regional titles and a place in the top ten in State!” Mr. Qualls agreed with this, adding that he was very impressed with the Pan¬ ther team and happy with Coach Cameron’s work. He had great confidence in them. The team realized that the loss of their first seniors would not be discourag¬ ing but help make them tougher.

TO STATE strong bond among the entire group could be felt by everyone who came in contact with them, and this bond grew stronger with the pride of every victory. Many team members performed in an outstanding manner. One example, early in the year, was Richard Dubreil. Richard, filling in for injured Brian Luedtke, pinned the State Champ from Deep Creek in only fourteen seconds. This achievement earn¬ ed Richard the award of fastest pin of the season. Potomac’s Champion blood doesn’t run through the starting team only; all Panther wrestlers were capable of carrying out the threatening image of the Potomac wrestl¬ ing team. As one member put it, “To be a good wrestler, you must haveskill, dedica¬ tion, strength, and the will to win. To be a GREAT wrestler, you have to wrestle for Potomac! After receiving a medal, Travis Welpott rests and watches his teammates. Travis is a freshman wrestl¬ ing varsity and obviously has the potential for being a great Potomac wrestler. As the official raises his arm to recognize the win, another victory for Potomac is won by Jerry DeCarli. Potomac crushes North Stafford with little difficulty in this meet. 206 Varsity Wrestling At the North Stafford vs. Potomac match, Allen Tardiff triumphs over another opponent. Allen’s im¬ pressive skills, record, and reputation is sure to take him far in the future. Preparing himself for the upcoming match, Lee Wilson does various types of stretches. A junior, Lee’s experience in wrestling has already made him a great Potomac wrestler. Inflicting pain upon his opponent, Chuck Money at¬ tempts a pin . Chuck ' s wrestling career record is one of the top on the Panther team. Muscling his opponent to the mat, AAark Vowell makes good use of his legs and arms as a skilled wrestler should. Mark spends his summers wrestling in an Iowa camp, learning new techniques. This dedication shows in his exceptional wrestling record. Varsity Wrestling 207 f i Regional Champion, Mark Vowell, wrestles his op¬ ponent onto the mat for another pin at Brentsville Tournament. Mark went on to pin four out of five wrestled, winning all five, and helping the Panthers place first over six teams. Potomac exceeds the se¬ cond team by almost 100 points at the tournament. Virginia State Champion Tony Thomas graduated last year. Before leav¬ ing, Tony reached the ultimate wrestling goal by capturing the state championship in the 119 weight class. He became Potomac’s first state champion, and established one of the school’s most im¬ pressive records for the season. He is presently wrestling at Chowan Jr. College in North Carolina. 55 Potomac E. C.

Carrillo is one of the best heavy-weight wrestlers Potomac has had. 208 Varsity Wrestling Reverse, Pin, and Win, Under the supervision of Coach Carr, the J.V. wrestling season has been one fill¬ ed with enthusiasm and victories. Many people may have thought the J.V. team was second best, but this was the team that proved them wrong. Potomac ' s J.V. wrestling team’s record has gone without a blemish for the past three years. Their record at the end of this season brought htem to an outstanding 28-0. With Mark Riley, Teddy Joseph and Bruce Earnhart leading the team’s victories, what else could have been asked for? The Potomac Panthers wrestling team, J.V. or Varsity, obviously has shown a great threat for the future to other teams in this state. With great determination, Earl Newman achieves another point. Earl made a great contribution toward another victory for Potomac. On top and in control of the match, Teddy Joseph works his tired opponent until he has an opportunity to pin. Ready to throw his victim, Danny Dubrell plants his feet for balance. Returning to his upright position. Perry Schwab reverses his opponent for points.

This is her second year on the drill team. Performing one of the newest Pantherette routines is Gina Bolk. This routine, “Wood Choppers Ball,” was a big success with the home crowd. Pantherettes 211 Front Row: Tina Evans, Nicoel Steagall Second Row: Stephanie Boyd, Yuri Lazar, Lisa Cosgrove, Teri Carter, Christine Michelini, Tonni Austin Third Row: Mandy Gaddy, Jeannette Mullany Back Row: Kelly Johnson, Nancy Barber Tonni Austin and Teri Carter were chosen captains for the Varsity Squad. Teri and Tonni are the only senior girls to have cheered all four years at Potomac. Cheer¬ leaders Do It With a Scream Cheerleading, the easiest way to become popular, right? WRONG!! Aside from up to three nights of cheering a week, the cheerleaders were responsi¬ ble for making all the signs and posters that go up in the hall, special baking for team members, and preparing for com¬ petitions and pep rallies throughout the year. In order to buy their new uniforms and supplies, the cheerleaders must also take part in several fund-raising ac¬ tivities. All these things equal long, hard hours put in by the cheerleaders every week. At first glance, amidst the tumbling cheers, and stunts, it may have ap¬ peared that the PSHS cheerleaders had it easy. But when one looked closely, one saw hard work and long hours that went into these spirit leaders of Potomac High. The cheerleaders at Potomac work their hardest to promote spirit. Jeannette Mullany and Stephanie Boyd show their enthusiasm for the Co-District Cham¬ pions. “GO BLUE!” The energetic and enthusiastic way Lisa Cosgrove performs at a cold October football game helps boost spirit and motivate the Panther team. 212 Varsity Cheerleaders The Varsity Cheerleading Squad spends many hours after school working on their numerous activities. One activity is fund raising. Successful fund raisers help to support the expenses of new uniforms such as these. Cheerleading is like any other sport — exhausting. Here, Mandy Gaddy enjoys a break from cheering and relaxes with a cold Coke. MO Long hours of hard work go into producing crash-through signs. The girls prepare for the impact of the foot ball players running through. Enthusiasm, shown here by senior Yuri Lazar, warms up even the coldest football games. Her smile, encourages the Potomac Football Team on to success. Varsity Cheerleaders 213 Spirit keeps Ann Beamer jumping. Com¬ plicated stunts and impressive tumbling keep the crowd entertained.

Chrissy and Stacey were elected to be captains of their Junior Varisty squad. A “P” Everyone sees them at most athletic events supporting Potomac’s teams. If they’re missed cheering, that’s probably because they are selling programs, spirit ribbons and buttons. They are Potomac’s Freshman and Junior Varsi¬ ty Cheerleading Squads. A year as a cheerleader is no easy endeavor. These twenty-four girls, sponsored by Betsy Maloney, go through many things behind the scenes that usually go unnoticed. Precise and sharp motions help make a good cheerleader. Donna Dorton displays these qualities on the sidelines. “And that’s a fact!” yells JV cheerleader Caroline Holtzauer. 2 ]4 JV Cheerleaders Front Row: Jennifer Hoopes Second Row: Geanna Gomber, Christine Spade, Angelique Wagner Third Row: Candy Covington, Tammy Crawford, Erin Fitzgerald, Kim Little, Deanna Davis Back Row: Dawn Swecker, Selling programs on Friday nights at football Paula Hollar, Vicki Ellis games is a big responsibility. Angelique Wagner and Erin Fitzgerald enjoy the social aspect of this activity. Paula Hollar executes a perfect “Russian.” Few people realize just how much work it takes to make a stunt like this look easy. Freshman captains Deanna Davis and Dawn Swecker add sparkle to the new squad. Their tact and patience helped the squad work well together. “We’ve got soul!” exclaims Tammy Crawford. Learning the new routines takes energy and a good memory. Freshman Cheerleaders 215 ' ■ As one of the coaches of the football team, Mr. Prifti gets to do some pretty interesting things. During the summer, he participated in football camp at Saint Mary’s College, Emmittsburg, Maryland. hi f As the song says, “money makes the world go around.” While this point may be disputed, it may also generally be agreed that without money, not very much could be done. Potomac High School is no exception to this rule and in the course of the year the students had many fund raisers to obtain some of this precious material. Some groups came up with some very unique ideas of how to raise money, such as the band boosters’ selling pizza kits, while others used more conventional means, such as selling candy in school and holding dances. However they managed to raise it, the money they got helped to keep whatever group they were a part of afloat, and this was of major importance. Kerry White broadens her horizons and catches up on current events by leafing through the Washington Post in the morning. Classified ads were a new feature in the school’s newspaper, the Potomac Messenger. Diane Benevides and Cindy Cunnif display some interesting examples of these. 216 Ads Index Exhibiting great skill and dexterity, Kimo Buckon succeeds in keeping the soccer ball away from his opponent. It takes a lot of hard work and practice after school to develop such a technique. While the identity of the Varsity mascot may be a mystery to most, it is no mystery to its friends. Here, the mascot, Dawn Bullen, sheds her Panther skin to share some great times with her best friend, Kelly Johnson. The Seniors show some of the school spirit that won them the spirit stick at the second pep rally of the year. Don’t worry, your chance will come, Juniors!

At the end of its fifth year, Potomac Senior High School continued to grow and reach for its fullest potential. It has become well known throughout the county and has developed the reputation of one of the best schools around. The students, staff, and parents of Potomac all shared a special bond. When Potomac started, many people didn’t have high hopes for us. But we worked together, and showed ourselves and everyone else that Potomac was definitely a school that had the elements of success. Our teachers were the pick of the crop and gave Potomac its excellent academic name. The students showed enthusiasm and pride in everything they did. In victory or defeat, the electricity of Potomac students shone through. Parents were with us through everything. Their volunteering and dedication was a key to the success of our school. People looked up to Potomac with good reason. Potomac has come a long way in its short history and we still have a way to go. This year has brought its ac¬ complishments and improvements as will the years that follow. Now, at the end of the fifth chapter in the book of Potomac Senior High School, it is time for us to turn out the lights of another year. After finishing her math homework, Yuri Lazar works on another assignment. Such diligence helps students to be winners in the homework game. Closing 245 BLACKOUT When we look back on this year, it’s not what we remember that is impor¬ tant, but how we remember it. For some, this year was a beginning of the four best years of their lives. For others, it was the end of high school. But for all of us, it was a time of laughter and tears, celebration and disappointment, and growing up togehter. Whatever comes to mind when you think of 1984, remember that we accomplished it together. For togetherness is what truly made 1984 Totally Electrifying. Together, our first Homecoming parade was a success. With floats depic¬ ting Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Sleeping Beauty, Alice in Wonderland and Dumbo, the “Disney” theme was we ll-portrayed. Together, we travelled to Fauquier to beat our district rivals who were first then in the district foot¬ ball race. Together, we proved to Gar- Field’s basketball team that they were not our “Big Brother.” Together, we watched our second senior class graduate. And together, we are Potomac, and this was our year.
