AERIE 1978 RICHARD WINN ACADEMY WINNSBORO, S.C. VOLUME XII I’m sailing away An open course is set for the virgin sea For I’ve got to be free Free to face the life that’s ahead of me On board I’m the captain So climb aboard We'll search for tomorrow On every shore And 111 try, oh Lord, I’ll try To carry on — I look to the calmness of the sea Reflections in waves spark my memory Some happy, some sad I think of childhood friends And the dreams we had We lived happily ever after Or so the story goes But somehow we missed out On the pot of gold But we'll live best that we can And try to carry on . , . A gathering of angels appeared above our heads They sang to us a song of hope To be free and happy is what they said . . . 2 THE GOOD LIFE. . .4 THE MANY FACES. . .10 THE FUN TIMES. . .44 THE WINNING TEAMS . . .58 THE HARD WORK. . .84 THE CITY MERCHANTS. . .98 3 4 “To be free takes all we have to give — Its reward is all we hope to have.” — Kathe Daniels 5 Faculty SARA R.

To Andy Ligon, Carmen Glenn leaves a bus driver’s handbook in hopes that he will use it for the protection of the riders. To Alex West- brook and Bill Goudelock, she leaves a pin cushion, a wig, and a teddy bear in hopes that they will find these useful substitutes for her during classes next year. To Cynthia Lever, Linda Faile, and Mark Gustafson, Carmen leaves her bubbling personality and charm and her ability to talk people’s ears off. Sallie Traylor wills to Helen Matthews and Smut Plampin her fellow Kissettes, one badly warped record of “Gonna Put My Old Blue Jeans On’’, and a place on the bench to Wfeep warm during basketball season. To Deanie Collins, she leaves four new tires, a driver’s handbook, and the hope that he will put both to good use. To Mrs. McNeely, Sal leaves four grease pencils, which are now nubs, a new cropper, which she never learned to use, and three bottles of Bayer Aspirin, which she can share with the 1979 editor. Billy Yongue leaves Andy Ligon a pair of prescription sunglasses in hopes that he can keep the bus between the ditches. To the riders of that bus, he leaves enough blindfolds to go around. To Mrs. Turner Mike Taylor leaves a huge sign with “GET” spelled on it for future classes and a box of Rolaids so that she can spell “relief”. To Allyson Lewis, he leaves his locker and his Algebra 111 book in case she plans to broaden her mathematical background.

Wes Teal leaves his ability to worry about homework and tests to George Jeter. To next year’s Senior Class president, he leaves his superb ability to make a million. Wes leaves his thermos to Carolyn in hopes that she won’t waste her money buying drinks every day. Let's see: .25 x 2 is .50 x 5 is $2.50 every week . , .So WASTEFUL! To Mr. Strickland, Alan Reed wills his winning smile and his ability to make people goof up. To next year's Beta Club president, he leaves a large bottle of tranquilizers and the hopes that he can get more work out of the Betas than he could.

To Crystal Haynes, she leaves her pillow in typing in order that she might be able to reach the type- writer next year. To Bill Strickland she leaves an IOU for the purpose of having surgery done on his left hand to install the first built-in hand cal- culator with matching accessories. To Woody Kelly, Brett Collins leaves his basketball ability in hopes that he may learn to dribble and chew bubble gum at the same time.

To next year's Physics class, Helen Phillips leaves the habit of always forgetting to charge her calculator before a test and having it die on problem number “2”. To Mr, Strickland, she leaves her habit of being cold, even if it’s 99 degrees. She also leaves her 1001 dumb questions for him to answer. To next year's English IV class, Helen, Sallie, Vera, and Louise leave one word of advice: Don’t type your own term paper if you’ve only had six months of typing!” Keith Humphries leaves Mr. Hudson a Record Bar gift certificate, good toward a Jerry Clower coon hunting tape. Karen Miller leaves Kim Douglas her parking space and one extra large dent remover. To “Smut” Plampin, she leaves her ability to come back from Myrtle Beach with an Arby’s Roast Beef and a rash. To Con- nie Pope, Karen leaves four inches of her height and her ability to stay out of trouble. To Julie Brooks, Harriet leaves with a song in her heart. To Lee June Bug” Dorrier, she leaves her favorite word “droop” in hopes that he will use it wisely. To Jeff Clyburn, Harriet leaves her “PoohBear so that he will have something to snuggle with, her tennis ability, and her ability to stop at red lights. To Woodward Peay, Judy Mattox leaves her ability to distinguish between the brake and the gas pedal and also one can of defogger for his glasses. To the Senior Class of 1979, she leaves Mrs. Beach's revenge. To all people 5 feet or shorter, she leaves all the “short peo- ple” jokes, a shorter rostrum, and shorter desks so that their feet will touch the floor. Louise Ferguson wills to Helen Matthews and Carolyn Teal her ability to completely understand and draw perfect parabolas. To Laurie Ste- phenson, she wills another necklace so that Poopsie can have one, too. Louise leaves to Ray Gardner her ability to get along with the typing teacher because he needs all the help he can get. To Lee Dorrier, Gene Dixon leaves the ability to tell Bobby Giles how to be an official. To Sheryl “Cutie Cartwright” White, he leaves a lifesized poster of himself, the key to a certain room at Winthrop, and a phone number and very important address in technicolor.

Brett and Gene leave the new seniors the ability to use Senior privileges when they don't have any. Terrie Faulkenberry leaves Mrs. Beach a bottle of valium in order to help her recuperate from Sallie and Debbie’s arguments with Brett and Gene. To Jackie Cathcart, she leaves her great intelligence in hopes that maybe someday she will graduate. To Mr. Strickland, she leaves one brand new violin and a giant box of Kleenex. Peter Reeves wills Kim Douglas his red boxer shorts, although they probably won’t fit. To Beth Branham, he leaves his ability to fight the moose at Almost Nuts . . . and WIN! To all of the hearts he has broken, and to all the people he has offended, Peter leaves his favorite expres- sion: “EXCUSE MEEEH” Linda Ashford leaves Cynthia Lever the patience to drive a load of screaming kids to school without having a nervous breakdown by the end of the year, and a car with a radio that works. To Gene Haskins, she leaves the ability to ask “Can I Have A Ride?” at the last minute and get it. To Crystal Haynes and Helen Matthews, Linda and Carmen leave the talent for being the first to abuse Senior privileges. To Amy Robinson, Debbie Robinson leaves the task of carrying on the ROBINSON name at RWA in hopes that she will faithfully live up to it as well as the others have! To Mrs. Beach, she leaves enough nerve to take the Psychology class to the State Hospital and the hope that she will be able to return with the class. To Debbie Plampin, Debbie leaves her prayers for safety when riding the bus to school. Bobby Bass leaves George Jeter, Mike Good, and Deanie Collins his knack for doing almost everything and getting away with it. To Mrs. Beach he leaves alt the homework sheets he never got to do and all his excuses for missing school. To the faculty, Bobby leaves the unexpected knowledge that he DID graduate. To the next Algebra II class. Tommy Mattox leaves his book of answers and dirty sayings with the hope that whoever receives t will use it to the fullest. To the seventh grade foxes. Tommy wishes he were in the seventh grade, but he would have to compete with Keith and Peter which wouldn't be fair. To RWA, in a sad note. Tommy leaves with this statement: “LONG LIVE ELVIS!!” Lee Estes leaves Richard Winn . . . happily. To Miriam Stewart, she leaves the ability to keep her sanity for two more years. Ape leaves to all those coming along his ability to get along with the history teacher. Third period study hall (Sallie, Louise, Harriet, Carmen, Helen, Vera, John, and Keith) leave Mrs. Matthews two cotton balls for her hearing problem, a bottle of Dristan for her nose problem . , . and a pair of “hush puppies” for sneaking up on future third period study halls. To Joe John Stephenson, John Ruff leaves his position as guard on the football team, which he wanted so badly. Also to Joe John he leaves a copy of the latest Charles Atlas diet plan, in hopes he will reach the 100 lb. mark by next football season.

Ec whenever in a crowded room or sitting all alone, •ven someone calls your name out loud or gives a giant moan, ell think of these precious high school years, -emembering the laughter as well as the tears. ' s hard to think that it's time to part vth friends that will always be engraved on our heart; -nd though we’ll miss these times whether in this town or another, One thing is for sure — Most of all — We will miss each other! — Sallie Traylor USHERS (Not Pictured): Andy Ligon, Debbie Plampin, Chris McMeekin, Helen Matthews.

Four classes received certificates for 100% participation. Six new members were inducted into the club at Awards Night. OFFICERS: Vera Haskins, Sec. Treas.; Alan Reed, President; Helen Phillips, Vice-President. Aerie Staff Sallie Trayfor, Editor, and Carolyn Teat, Assistant Editor. This year the Aerie staff has worked very hard.

The Literary staff has struggled to meet deadlines and to take the best pictures. Of course, Mrs. McNeely was always there, behind the scenes, pushing us to fin- ish everything on time! Thus it js with great pride that we present to you our attempt to capture the happenings of this year — Aerie 1978. (Front Row) A. Lewis, L. Estes, L. Ashford, H. Phillips, C. Glenn, V. Haskins, C.

The Letterman Club consists of girls and boys who have partici- pated in athletics. The function of the club is to help promote and work with the intramural sports activities of the lower school. Booster Club The purpose of the Booster Club is to sponsor and promote the entire athletic program of the school. This year, it helped to initi- ate a football team; and although the season was not a winning one, the football program was highly successful. At the close of the sea- son an appreciation dinner was given by several of the parents assisted by the Booster Club. Char- lie Rizzo of the Citadel was the guest speaker. Other projects sponsored by the Booster Club were the Alumni Bas- ketball Game, concessions at home games, and a Beach House Raffle. 94 Fund Raising Many fund raising projects were organized and supported throughout the year by parents, teachers, and stu- dents of R.W.A. These include maga- zine sales, a bazaar in the fall, and the selling of cookbooks. 95 In Appreciation CANTEEN WORKERS: Mike Taylor and Brian White.

PTO The purpose of the Parent-Teacher Organization is to promote communi- cation and harmony among the fac- ulty, parents, administration and board of directors and to assist in the promotion of the general welfare of the school. Since its organization in May of 1977, the PTO has grown to include 182 members representing 110 families. The group met four times during the school year and undertook three highly successful projects: a bi- monthly newsletter to the parents, the publication and sale of a cookbook, and an Awards Night program. Chorus The Chorus Club under the direction of Mrs. John V. Nicholson, Jr., performed twice during the year. In Decem- ber the group presented a program of familiar Christmas Carols at Sion Presbyterian Church, after which they caroled at the homes of several shut-ins. In the spring the club pre- sented a concert of popular songs also at the Presbyterian Church. In .addition, the Boys’ Octet sang for the Beauty Contest. With meetings held twice a week during activity period and occasionally during lunch, this has been one of the most active and enjoyable clubs.
