RADFORD PUBLIC LIBRARY 30 WEST MAIN STREET RADFORD.

A moment to unlock a door for a stream of frantic eighth graders or to cheer for an injured football player. A moment to listen to the eerie hush of the empty halls during classes, or to catch the beauty of a cloudless sky in early spring. A moment, please, to consider yourself as an in- dividual and to bring the myriad threads of your personality together. A moment to see yourself as what you were, what you are, and, perhaps, what you will be. A moment, please, to believe in yourself and to hope for the future. 4 A MOMENT, PLEASE 5 6 x i ■ Mlinw TiW III fllr _ t | . I |i 1 JM.J ij IJ; ll, • 1 I i. f i I i iu rt Too numerous to count . . .

Janet Goode 7 They built a great stone wall around the house Just to keep all those little unwanted children out. They sure know how to let you know who runs the place Should a little hand reach up and try the gate.” Merlin M. Shorb 8 Peering over (he rim of her glasses, she follows the movements of the unsuspecting intruder. Slowly she removes the glasses from her steady blue eyes. I must be teaching in Grand Central Station,” she remarks as she absently chews on the tip of her glasses. To many students at Radford High School she is admired for her subtle humor, her determined, ”never-give-up” attitude, her constant willingness to help, and a smile that expresses understanding. Those who know her find that the lively interest and the boundless enthusiasm that she transmits to her students comes straight from her heart. The 1972 Oak Leaf spotlights Mrs. Reese Goldsmith. 11 WORDS CAPTURE CREATIVE I can ' t find my pencil, complains Mr. Waterworth. Bill Rockwell, Sylvia Scott, Mary Todd Anfin, Jon Lightner, Tim Nester, Jenny Cook and Walter Graham participate in a Contemporary Literature play, A Rose for Emily. Within the privacy of his own mind the RHS En- glish student encounters life in other places and at other times. He scrutinizes the world through the eyes of a novelist. He examines intrigue and assas- sination while involved in a Shakespearean play. He searches for hidden meanings in an old English ballad. Whether he is analyzing a short story, de- veloping a thesis sentence, or explicating a poem, the English student is on a roadway into another world. 14 FRAGMENTS OF THOUGHTS Do I need a corridor pass for The Road Not Taken ? inquires Robert Frost. All right, who broke my chalk? demands Mrs. Heinline. 15 Tom Green will go lo any extreme to get the right shade of red for his p ainting. 16 CREATIVITY IS KEY TO CHARACTER This is without a doubt one of the strangest sounding words I ' ve ever written, muses Anthony Mclver to Robin Brightwell. An artist ' s ambition is to create something that is his alone — art is individual and art is self sufficient. Art changes concepts, thoughts, and ideas into concrete, visible showcases of creativity. To think, to plan, to assemble; these are the steps in experiencing art as a means of expression. Above all, art gives a person an opportunity to de- velop a style of communication that is his very own. 17 WE STUDY WHAT WAS LIVED; ' Round and ' round and round she goes and . . grins Vaughn Stone. Now how in the world could she think of a question like that? ponders Abie Williams. Situations, ages old, leap from the pages of the textbook and create a collage of events in history student ' s imagination. Heroes, battles, and docu- ments spin through his mind as he questions their importance. What does the past have to do with the present? Hesitantly, his concentration moves to the blur of the rapidly moving world around him. Suddenly, as the motion slows, he brings today into focus. He sees heroes, battles, and doc- uments, much the same as he saw in his textbook. The picture is clear. He finally realizes that the success of tomorrow depends on what is learned from the mistakes of yesterday. Mr. Chairman, the state 1 of Washington passes, voices Tim Nester. WE LIVE WHAT WILL BE STUDIED POLITICAL PARTIES I believe they’re on the wrong road, thinks Mary Todd Antin. So what if I don ' t look like President Nixon, quips Bruce Jones. And just think, another whole hour until lunch, laments David Bondurant. 19 PACE IS FAST IN THE Hands are poised and ready to strike. Chairs and typewriters await next victims. 20 BUSINESS DEPARTMENT The typewriter at the sixth desk, third row, takes a break from its strenuous work out. The RHS business student learns the basic ideas that shape our economic situation today. He dis- covers the relationship of supply and demand and that this concept is a necessary part of our every day lives. As he becomes an actual working part of the business machine, he gains valuable knowl- edge of proper business procedures and how to apply this knowledge in actual situations. Biff Medlin listens attentively and discovers that his typewrit- er is out of tune. 21 Mr. Kerr reviews some basic formulas in physics. This looks like a physics test to me, moans Sharon Garth. A spell of silence falls over the science lab as Mr. Roberson asks a question about his lecture. 22 UNDERSTANDING OF SCIENCE IS UNDERSTANDING OF LIFE Abie Williams, and Murray Agee seem to have something heavy on their minds. Peering into the unclear regions of a mysterious microscopic world, the science student attempts to focus his eyes and his mind on the very essenc e of life itself. He sees the small and the tall, the long and the short, the life and the death of every- thing around him. He -learns to relate facts, theories, hypotheses, and laws of nature to his own surroundings. He begins to realize that the understanding of science is actually the understanding of his life, his environment, and his world. 23 RHS CONDITIONS BODIES Okay, let ' s do leg-lifts! Whistle slapping against his chest, a physical ed- ucation teacher strides down the ranks of groaning students. Come on, get ' em up. Hold ' em! An eternity of twenty seconds passes. The teacher picks up a basketball and practices some shots from the half court. Hey! I gotta cramp! My shoe ' s untied. May I be excused? Why do we always have to do leg-lifts? DOWN! What do you mean square dance or ten laps! exclaims an eighth grader. 24 Oh, no, somebody stole my socks! AS WELL AS MINDS Simon says, Put your hands up The locker room is momentarily at peace. 25 HANDS ACROSS Bridging a gap: Latin, Spanish, French. ' But Mrs. Pritt, I don ' t even like French fries! exclai Nancy Crawford. Communication — that is what it is all about today. Can people of different ages, races, and cultures communicate with each other? Can thoughts and emotions be expressed accurately enough to be understood and felt by others? Our communication today is often confronted by obstacles, appropriately called gaps. There are gaps of distance, generation, and language. But as f Katl,or(l High School language student de- velops a knowledge of life and culture in another country he takes steps to bridge the gap created by nationality. However gradual it may seem, it is with each of these steps that our world is made a little smaller. 26 THE WATER Come on, we can ' t do that, shout Latin students. 27 MATH OFFERS A FASCINATION Math students compute the velocity of the Big Blue Cannonball. ' My answer was just a hair off, explains Ben Amonette. Edie Barnard pinpoints the answer. 28 OF FACTS, FIGURES, AND FORMULAS David Bondurant thinks he deserves a pat on the back Let ' s see, the interpolation of a log . . figures Brent Lambert. As the RHS student enters the world of mathe- matics, he realizes that there is far more involved than he had ever dreamed. He learns that the essentials of mathematics will be a necessity in a world of facts, figures, and formulas. Finally, he learns that the goal of mathematics can be reached — the goal of reason and logic, even though infinity may never be reached. For boys only, declares Steve Beasley. 29 Preparing for the future by actively participating in the present, the vocational student learns a skill that will serve as a foundation for his future. He learns to handle many types of equipment with safety and care and familiarizes himself with the terms of his chosen vocation. 30 “WORK AND LEARN” STUDY PROMOTES PRODUCTIVE VOCATIONS “Eddie, would you mind telling me the next time you run a nail through my hand? complains Ricky Painter. Jed DeHart peers through his bifocals at two jungle snakes. Connie, do I hear something ticking in this bag? asks Mrs Moore. 31 DIRECTION IS SCA AIM Row One: Bill Brown, Dave McCardle, Ralph Fisher, ).B. Collins, Vaughan Stone.

The boys begin the season by running one to two miles a day and at the end of the season they are running six to ten miles. The boys run approximately 800 miles total. Success, as in all sports, comes as a result of talent, hard work, and determination. The Bobcats climaxed a successful first year by capturing sec- ond in the District meet.

The top three players of the racket crew were Mike Johnson, Jon Lightner, and Tim Nester. Others who played in the top six were Tommy Simpson, David Cochran, Steve Sheckler, and Abie Williams.

The seasons remain as dim reminders of an intangible past. Time drifted slowly. The years melted confusingly together. Driver ' s Ed? Sure, you remember, but was it before or after the fire? The year ends, and with it the most rewarding time of your lives. The past is obscured by a fog- bank of time which rolls in slowly. Your achieve- ments, your failures, your joys, and your heart- breaks all remain as ghostly partners of your recent past. A moment, Seniors, to look to the future, the shadowed hall that is your destiny. The locker door that would never quite close, now slams, and sharp footsteps recede down the corridor. Five years of your lives are now memories. The future is written with the ink of yesterday, yet it lives to be rewritten in what you envision for your tomor- row. 146 SECURE IN PAST Verner Plott, president J.B.

A Junior is a class ring, or so you thought when you received yours. Yet that ring is a symbol, a symbol of the hours that you worked on a term paper, of the grueling ordeal of college boards, and of that glorious, never-to-be-forgotten night of Prom. Truth, Honor, Wisdom — the inscription on the ring. After all, isn ' t that what your year was all about? In every Junior ' s mind, there exists an abstract definition of these inscribed words. Each of you has his own foundation for truths, his own code of honor, and his own source of wisdom. The bright luster of your ring may have dulled and the stone may be chipped, but you wear it with pride because of another inscription — Radford High School, the place where you have spent four of the most memorable years of your life. A moment, Juniors, take a good look at that ring and be proud. You ' ve earned it. 176 ON THE MOVE!!

It ' s a little unreal, isn ' t it? Caught in a maze of sophistication, you consider yourselves too mature to be identified with the lump of underclassmen, yet you feel too insecure to emerge as an upperclassman. You know that to- morrow you will have conquered the battle within yourselves, but for today you float in a kind of limbo. Suddenly, your situation doesn ' t seem so hope- less. You realize that you have a special security as a Sophomore. You have escaped both the pressure of underclassmen and the responsibility of upperclassmen. You have time to evaluate yourselves, to find your strengths, and to form concrete plans for your future. More importantly, you have discovered the key word: pride — pride in your school, pride in yourselves, pride in every- thing you do. That is what it ' s all about. 186 YOU GOING?

This has been a year of firsts . . . and of lasts. You have become an integral part of the machinery which makes our school what it is. You are no longer the uncertain, bumbling, confused person that you were; you are aware, alive, and concerned with your future. You have established a firm base, and now you are looking ahead, perhaps with direction, or perhaps with uncertainty. No matter what your ideals are now or what they will become, the future is what you make it. A moment please.

You found yourselves last in everything — last to eat lunch; last to be dismissed from pep rallies. You experienced frustration which you tried to hide by acting casual-casual, like running into the wrong class room, late. You were pushed in the halls, sent to the office, and made to run innumerable laps around the gym. Then something clicked and you no longer needed that confusing map you were given. You sat in the student section at games. You knew you were a part of what was happening. You entered into the activities with the true spirit of Radford High School, bringing your fresh, youthful ideas. A bell rings. You pick up your books and walk to your next class. Confusion, adjustment, awareness — this year — just another step. 202 Ricky Weyer, president Susan Rockwell, secretary Phillip Young, treasurer Mike McCardle, vice president WHAT RHS PRIDE IS ALL ABOUT 203 THEY ENJOY MEMBERSHIP Rhonda Akers Sherri Akers Wanda Akers Debbie Alderman Donna Alderman Kathy Altizer Mark Amonette )ay Angle Cary Artrip Joe Baka it is Susan Barton Vickie Benson David Bernier Elizabeth Bird Michael Bishop Brenda Blake Cheri Boggess Randy Boyd Vicky Boyd Steve Branch William Brooks Pat Brown Donnie Bugg Larry Caldwell Oh no, peanut butter again! moans Bobby Swindell. 204 IN THE FAMILY OF RHS Tony Calfee Danny Carden Nicky Carden Perry Carter Victor Carter Scott Cary J.C.

Almost before you realized what was happening, your tomorrows became todays and your todays faded into yesterdays. Many moments have passed, sometimes slowly and sometimes much too swiftly. Are they gone or do they remain in your heart, too precious to be erased by time? Do you remember: Smile buttons — Irving Howard Hughes — Memphis State — POW ' s — Carole King — China Ping-Pong — the Shag — a Summery Winter — the Birds — Busing — State Championships — Hot Pants — Recycling — Rays — Superstar? Take a moment, please, to reflect, for things change. . . in a moment, you will change, too. 2 58 239 RADFORD PUBLIC LIBRARY 30 WEST MAIN STREET RADFORD. VA 24141 540-731-3621
