Why do you look at the world as you do ? Why do you feel this world is at an end, When there ' s a new hope for this old world right around the bend? You sing of hate and violence and fears. But this new peace is coming and will prevail for years. So change your song to one of peace and love. And live with a prayer that will be answered from above. Little boy dead, Little girl gone. You ' ve died and left me with no more than a song. A song for peace that ' s coming tomorrow To do away with hate and prejudice and sorrow. But this world is imperfect — I know it ' s full of flaws. So, ask me not why we must all sing, I ' ll softly answer because . . . just because Kathy Wall 7 We are different yet alike — at least in the time and place of here and now. We drift together then apart — only once or so do we make impressions which will last beyond time. And yet, we touch each others ' lives — if just for a single moment — by being who we are US and being where we are HERE and being when we are NOW and being why we are — why? WHY are we we ? because . . . just because Jean Lightner It started almost like any other day — but something made this day different or maybe even better. You were waiting for that first long clanging of that familiar bell — the bell that would begin a year of memories. You were thinking of the summer days and nights, which fled by so rapidly, so unnoticed, yet so full of unforgetful moments. Then, the bell rang, and you entered the door. A new school, with polished tile floors, was waiting to be trampled through by hundreds of dirty feet. The new lockers, with befuddling combinations which so often offered excuses for being late to class, were waiting to be stuffed with books and coats and to be banged upon and kicked at. The faculty and administration were waiting and hoping that the confusion which reigned supreme in the past years would be overcome by the new school building. You were waiting through that day (and that year) with mixed feelings wondering, hoping, growing until suddenly — as if a balloon had burst and you fell — it was all over. You took a good, long look at yourself. Am I different than I was that first day ? You have changed; things have changed. And something makes you realize that you and all those things will never be the same — The same as they were on that first day — The same as you were this past year. But something did make this year different or maybe even better perhaps the best. But you don ' t know why, and neither do I. But, maybe it ' s because . . . just because Kathy Wall A Friend Why does he begin his day before we awake and end his day long after we leave Why does he care about the people at RHS as if each were his own child Why does he always do more than just the required Why does his simple smile transmit enough happiness to permeate an entire school Why is he so thoughtful of our needs while we take his deeds for granted Why does he make a special effort to be there when you need him Why does he care for a building as if it were an old friend Why is he a friend to everybody on the hill Why is it that once you get to know him you also come to love him Why does the 1 973 Oak Leaf spotlight Mr. John Lee maybe because . . . just because . 10 t ip wym folk feS to fiv ? m mm because there is no action with thought, and life is subservient to action we seek to better our minds. ;; . ; : education Art And Home Ec. Express Man ' s Strongest Motive — Life One thousand one hundred ninety-three, one thousand one hundred ninety four . . . only four hundred three more freckles to go, thinks Tim Griffith. Everytime the recipe called for something that I didn ' t have I just put in a little — hiccup, smirks D.R. Meridith. Art Art is having your art teacher put your picture on display when you haven ' t even finished it. Home Economics This sewing machine is stuck, and lo, I guess that means I cannot sew. If I can ' t sew, I can ' t finish this dress. Well, I guess th at ' s okay, ' cause it is a mess! Yes, I know that bugs are bad, Ronald. Just throw it out the window, says Mrs. Davis. 14 Hi! My name is Alison. I walk, I talk, I cry, I even . . . well, you now, reiterates Alison Belt. Ugh! Who stuck bubblegum on my mouthpiece? wails Robert Hinkley. Music Holds A Key To Expression Chorus To describe the chorus I ' m at a loss for words. They yodel, they sing, and warble like birds. Their songs are so pleasant that all love to hear For they seem to fall sweetly upon any ear. One thing would we change, and only one thing, We wish that someone would teach them how to sing. Band A-one and a-two and a-three and a-four, Set your instruments up, we ' ll play it once more. Golly, durn, shucks, and confound, You blew it again, put your instruments down.

Double trouble Who do you think you ore, throwing that spitball at me? demands Timmy Weikel . Math Presents Puzzling Problems Who me, glasses? jokes Martha Tilley. Mathematics builds on knowledge gained the year before with the knowledge one gains now. If one should use this knowledge after leaving school, he becomes known as the aftermath. Does your mother know that you carry pictures like this in your wallet? accuses Donna Mills, as Karen Patton stands awe-stricken. i 18 Lab Activities Test Stomachs ' y Miss Jennings seems happy that some of her students show extra inter- est in biology. Why didn ' t somebody tell me that we are having a measle demic? complains Walt Simmerman. Two cork stoppers wait to demonstrate a scientific property. Frogs and formulas and lab work galore. There are what sciences are studied for. Dissecting worms right after lunch And learning those formulas bunch by bunch. With our teachers to guide and show, We ' ll learn what we need to know.

Back in the year 1421, Somewhere, somehow, some battle was won. Or was it instead in 1423 ? Oh darn, I ' ve forgotten my history. I wonder why that flag only has 47 stars, contemplates an American history student. I don ' t even know these clowns, insists William Ratcliff, as Mike Mauck stabs John Corn s bubble. 22 Did you ever wonder why the library got so popular all of a sudden? New Library Aids Psychology Students In Studying Behavior Theron Calfee finds that the new library is an ideal place to write and read and study and do homework and . . . What do you mean go? I don ' t even know what do, says a befuddled psychology student as she tries her hand at mirror drawings. The mind is its own place And among the sciences of the human race It is only a thing of biology. But, for the person of normal face The mind has another place. For these and only these, The mind is a thing of psychology. 23 I Students Seek Career Insight I had no idea that they were that opposed to ten minute writings, frets Mrs. Chappell. 24 I just know that that alarm is about to go off and I haven ' t even finished ' Dear Sir, ' thinks a frustrated Randy Soucek. t ( Look out, Coach!

The ' 72 Bobcat track team won the New River Dis- trict, Region IV, and State AA Championships en route to an undefeated season. Coach Norman Lineburg ' s thinclads also captured the Buena Vista, All-American and New River Valley relays. Unlike most other track coaches, Lineburg places emphasis on team unity instead of individual glory. Lineburg ' s thinclads have won eight titles over the last two years. Ability and team unity have combined to make the RHS track teams the best in the state. 71 ' How can I clear the bar when I can ' t even see it? queries Shannon Elswick.

Although the team was only in its first year, the girls did quite well. This was true not only in district competition with other teams in the New River District, but also in state competition as well. The girls compete in almost all of the field events that the boys do; however, the pole vault is not held while the shotput is slightly lighter and discus is smaller. The mile and two mile runs are not part of the events, but all the other running events are the same as in male competition. There are no qualifications for the team and even though the girls did not go undefeated this season, this is the goal that the coaches, Mrs. Sandidge and Mrs. Gallimore are going to strive for in the future. 75 Cross Country Gains Support In Second Season l L i ' JS ' 1 L ' M ' I First Row: Wayne Myers, Bobby Smith, Bobby Turk, Walt Simmerman, George Davis, Reed Lambert, Danny Reed.

The cross country team, only in its second year at RHS, faced a tough schedu le including several dual meets, the district and regional meets as well as the Marion and V.P.I. and St. Univ. Invitationals. The Cat runners began hampered by injuries to the two top runners, Brent Lambert and Jim Dickenson, but they grew stronger as the season progressed. Lambert finished seventh in the regional meet at Marion, the final competition of the season. The 1972 team was enhanced somewhat in appearance by the addition of a female branch. The gals competed against Blacks- burg, the only other girls ' team in the district. Eat your hearts out, fellas, smiles Bobby Smith. I know that we ' re expected to be able to run around obstacles, but I ' m not jumping over any streamers, refuses Ray Hoyt. 76 Golf Team Swings Through ' 72 Season Zh jp Craig, Jim Callaway, Norman Lepchitz, Tom Camp, Donn Cary, Herb Smith, Mel Lester.

The golf team ended its season with a 2-6-1 record. After a bad start with two losses, the linksmen bal- anced their record with two victories over Carroll County and Floyd. The following match resulted in a tie with Giles. The season came to an end with the linksmen playing the top teams in the district for the last four matches. The team consisted of several young golfers and only three graduating senior golfers. So, from the experience gained last season, this year should prove to be a better one for the RHS golf team.

The 1972 tennis team captured the New River Dis- trict Championship for the sixth straight year and the Region IV title for the fourth year in a row. On the play-off level the Cats advanced to the state finals before losing to Harrisonburg. The team extended their N.R.D. winning streak to well over fifty matches. Leading the Cats were seniors Mike Johnson, Tim Nester, and Jon Lightner. Rounding out the top six players were Tommy Simpson, Steve Sheckler, and Abie Williams. Women ' s Lib (or is it lob?) also hit the tennis team in the form of Jean Lightner, Maria Hondras, Jenny Haas, and Vicki Christian, the first girls to compete on the varsity level for RHS. The year 1972 also marked the debut of a new coach, Buddy Martin, who actually learned a thing or two about the sport. Losing five of the top seven players, the Cat tennis team faces a rebuilding year in 1973, but has hopes of extending its remarkable record. Baseball Cats Post 4-4 Season Record It would be easier if you ' d use a bat, Noel ! advises Jan Fisher Hey, somebody ' s taking our picture, Jackie! exclaims Lynn Al- derman. The Bobcat baseball team concluded the 1972 cam- paign with a district record of four wins and four losses. Under head coach, Frank Beamer, the Bobcats defeated Galax, Floyd and Narrows, and they ended seasonal play with an upset victory over arch-rival Dublin. The 1972 team was comprised of the follow- ing members: Noel Slone, Jan Fisher, Robby Wright, Mike Mauck, Steve Cloyd, Jackie Kiser, Bruce Craw- ford, Kenny Alderman, Dave Simpkins, Eddie Rich- ards, Lynn Alderman, Steve Hypes, David Young, Sammy Pugh, David Keller, Donnie Franklin, Mike Smart, and Randy Martin. The team was led by coaches Frank Beamer and John Waterworth. 79 Eighth Grade Bobcats Gain Experience For Years To Come The eighth grade Bobcat football team, under head coach Jack Johnson and assistant coach Dennis Sayers, concluded the ' 72 season with a record of four wins and three losses. After dropping the first game, the Little Bobcats responded with four victories in the next five games. They shut out Christiansburg, Floyd County, Narrows, and Carroll County. The Little Cats showed improvement with every game while dis- playing the R.H.S. spirit and pride. Little Bobcat scrambles for extra yardage.

The last game of the season loss to Dublin resulted in a four wins and three losses record for the Junior Varsity squad. This potentially strong team will provide the Varsity team with quite a few good players in the years to come. he J.V.

Although experiencing a losing season, the Junior Varsity basketball team improved its record of the previous season by two victories. Coach Dennis Sayers saw his squad win seven games in twenty outings. At one point in the season, the Little Cats won four of five contests. During that period they upended Floyd, Christians- burg, Wytheville, and Giles. The J.V. players moving up to the Varsity next season will play an important role in its success. Radford High ' s eighth grade basket- ball team concluded the ' 72-73 season with a record of three wins, four defeats. The Baby Bobcats, directed by Coach Carroll Purcell, posted vic- tories over Dublin and Auburn. The Cats dropped a pair of games to both Pulaski and Wytheville. Despite their record, the eighth graders developed their talents while gaining experience for Junior Varsity competition. 93 Great Team Effort Highlights Regular Season Play Varsity Basketball — First Row: Beaver Young, David Ingram, Noel Slone, Roger Hughett, Steve Reeser, Dickie Saunders, Brad Roane, Tom Green, Biff Medlin, Mike Mauck, Robby Wright, Donnie Franklin, Steve Sowers, Mike Hammond.

The 1972-73 Varsity Basketball team enjoyed another outstanding season, capturing the New River District regular season championship while compiling a 20-1 worksheet. Coach Buddy Martin ' s Bobcats f opened the campaign with three straight triumphs, 7 before bowing to Blacksburg. However, the Bobcats . promptly reeled off a 17 game winning streak, which E included a 14 point win over the Indians in a playoff l game for the regular season title. In the District tour- r nament, R.H.S. earned second place honors. The Bobcats were a well-balanced team. Seniors Biff | Medlin, Mike Mauck, Tom Green, and sophomore j Roger Hughett all averaged in double figures. Robby !■ Wright, the fourth senior, became a starter midway | ' through the season and performed steadily. I 94 ' Last time he did that he hit his head and was out for the ■est of the game, sighs David Ingram. Oh, no! Noel ' s shooting, I can ' t look, groans Biff Medlin.

I guess you ' re wondering why I called this meeting, explains Noel Slone. The Bobcats won the Group AA Region IV tour- nament for the second consecutive year by defeating Marion, the Southwest District champ, 54-45 in the Virginia Tech Coliseum. R.H.S. jumped out to a 6-0 lead and Marion spent the rest of the night trying to catch up. Radford led 15-6 at the end of the first quarter and 33-25 at halftime. The Hurricane challenged once in the third quarter, cutting the gap to 40-33 late in the period. However, the Bobcats upped it to 42-33 at the end of the frame, then stretched the bulge to 46-33 early in the final quarter. After that, the outcome was never in doubt. Mike Mauck and Biff Medlin scored 18 points apiece. Roger Hughett contributed 16. In the opening round of the two-day tournament, R.H.S. clipped the Graham G-Men of Bluefield, 72-58. I ' m getting out of here before Thomas lands on me! exclaims Roger Hughett. Mike Mauck is informed by a friendly Marion player that he is pointed the wrong way. 98 -- = r -- z?

The years have dulled the image That once sat cherished in my memory. I used to know you so well, or so I thought. You were my home when I wasn ' t home. You somehow protected me And sheltered me from what the outside world expected of me. I never really realized it all then. Only now, so long after, do I really comprehend. I remember the night we said good-bye. I couldn ' t really understand why the tears filled my eyes. So often had I imagined your going That I couldn ' t believe a mere thought had become a reality. I watched, awe-stuck, as you died. I realized my tears came not from the smoke And my hot cheeks came not from the fire. I realized then, too late, I loved you.

Why do you feel you entered the wrong door into a strange new world? Why does the exit to reality somehow elude you? You are here, a part of RHS; yet you feel lost as though a part of you fell somewhere on the way. You have a home here, but somehow it seems to lack a touch of security. Why? You wonder why, Junior Freshmen? Why do you feel on the bottom of a pyramid stacked against you? Why do you at times desire to be an ostrich and bury your head in the sand? You will grow; and as you grow, you will learn. Your time is here; it, too, will grow — seconds to minutes, minutes to hours, until — your day has come!

Some live long and lead futile lives, But a few die young and, yet, they have accomplished more than most only dream of. Some live lives darkened by hates and prejudices, But a few light the way for others and help the weaker ones to their feet. Some die before they begin to live, But a few are reborn in death. Death offers no end, only life anew, But while on earth, make the best of all you do. Live and love and help your brother, Because there is but one life here — you ' ll not have another. For death in youth may come, young man, So live your life with an outstretched hand. Death offers no reason.

Could I hold my lamp up higher and light the way for you? Could I offer you my hand to help you o ' er the stones? I tell you, I cannot, for Life is a road to be begun alone and finished together. You have but begun — and I am far from done. I have no one to guide me — I can thus not guide you. Life is such — I know not why Life has such laws.
