We still place em- phasis on respect for authority, for others, and for property. We fur- ther believe that proper dress and behavior reflects the pride we feel in ourselves and our school, and this really shows our class when we are compared to other schools. Our class is also demonstrated by the outstanding achievements of our students in academics and athletics. The attitudes and achieve- ments of RWA students are repre- sented by the cover of this year- book. Like the colors of a rainbow. each individual student makes his own unique contribution, but the over-all impression that is given by our student body is one of real class. And despite what some peo- ple may think, CLASS COUNTS! by Jan Murray A very important part of Richard Winn Athletics is the values the coaches instill in their players. The JV football team, like all of our teams, repeat the Lord's Prayer before the game at Long Cane. Remembering to show their appreciation to the individuals and businesses who helped make Las Vegas Might a success. Rose Owens, Jan Murray, Angi Atkerson, and Greg Castles write thank-you notes for the Senior Class. 2 OPENING THEME Rose Owens, Teri Barefield, and Paul Patrick exemplify the RWA emphasis on proper dress as they wait for the beginning of Hamlet at USC. Allan Turner and Doug Raley work on a research project in the library. Achievement is important to them as it is to other RWA students. Eagle sportsmanship is apparent is Dean Branham (32) con- gratulates a Robert E. Lee player who was also named All-Tour- nament. Mrs. Amy hunn made a special necklace for Sally Hinnant'S tooth that she lost at school. This is only an example of the special treatment teachers give to stu- dents to make them feel important. The way students respond to other students is a mark of RWA's class, here Be- linda Surratt and Janet Spencer show their concern as Danielle Dunn explains her problem to them during break. OPEniNG THEME 3 Being a relatively small school where all grades are on one campus, Richard Winn provides a unique opportunity for all students to excel in one way or an- other. All students are made to feel that they are im- portant and are a part of Student Life at Richard Winn. 4 STUDENT LIFE DIVIDER Student Life Senior Allen Mattox enjoys reading a chil- dren's story to several First Graders in- cluding Peter Pyon and Bert Rexrode. This assignment from speech class gives older students an opportunity to interact with younger students in a meaningful way. Exhibits Class STUDEMT LIFE DIVIDER 5 EAGLE Our Eagle mascot symbolizes our pride in Richard Winn. We show our pride by the enthusiasm we have for events that are held throughout the school year and the way we represent Richard Winn. Our school spirit was at a peak during Spirit Week. During this week the cheerleaders came up with ideas for the students to show their en- thusiasm. They sponsored Dress Up Day, Camouflage Day, Sweat Clothes Day, and the most spirited day. School Colors Day. On this day the students dressed in blue, white, and gold, and attended a large pep rally where the Homecoming Court was introduced escorted by the football players they were sponsoring. Although school spirit was at its high during Spirit Week, enthusiasm can be seen throughout the year by the excellent support our teams receive both at home and on the road. This is one way we show our RWA pride. by Eran Jolly JV football manager Joe Renwick takes time out from his duties for a little fun. Too young to play he volun- teers his time to help the team. Travis Kingsmore shows his spirit by getting all paint- ed up on Camouflage Day. During the Conference Basketball Tournament at Calhoun Academy, our students and parents show strong and loud support for the Eagles. ENTHUSIASM COUNTS 6 STUDENT LIFE JV Football players Cal Caldwell, Jef Raley, and Bubba Surratt good naturedly pose as the Holly Hillbillies during a pep rally. Lead by Brad Brantley the Varsity football team shows its spirit by doing their “big fat lady'' cheer. i W :w The JV football cheerleaders keep spirit alive at Long Cane. Jonathan Burroughs, Bubba McLean, and Jason Robinson really enjoyed Camouflage Day during homecoming week. This eye-catching bulletin board, guarded by the Eagle, was created by Mrs. Martha Ladd and the Art Club. STUDENT LIFE 7 The sixth period P.L. class, made up of ninth Graders, is all mixed up in their shoe styles, nike, Reebok, and Converse tennis shoes and high-tops are just a few of the brands that are popular with them. Lower school students are also fashion conscious. Coca Cola and other sweatshirts are colorful and comfortable and make Jessica Da- vis, Brinkley Stone, and Sally Hinnant feel like fashion models. Senior Ashley Wilson dons his Ha- waiian print fishing hat and Ray-ban sunglasses to complete his casual look as he leaves campus. Jan Murray and Leigh Richardson love their Teddy Bear sweatshirts and appreciate their warmth on a windy Autumn day at the Senior yard sale. £ w 8 STUDENT LIFE FASHIONS The Great Cover-up The students at Richard Winn were right in step with the lastest fashions. Some of the more popular fads included acid-washed denim - jeans, jackets, skirts, shirts, and even shoes. Coca-Cola and Teddy Bear sweatshirts were big with the girls as were mini-skirts. Colorful accessories accented these stylish clothes. Swatch and Coca-Cola watches, colored high-top tennis shoes, and different styles of boots gave just the right look. Wayfarer and Rainbow sunglasses were in as well as sporty hats. However, the most popular head cover remained the baseball cap. To top off their look, most students chose rath- er conservative hairstyles. The girls liked a shoulder-length cut with soft curls or a short bob. The guys mostly sported the classic clean-cut look, although a few daring athletes got Mohawks in the Fall. Also, few spiked styles were seen here and there. These fashion conscious Eagles thought of school as an event - a chance to show off their great cover-ups! By Angi Atkerson Add-washed denin pocketbooks and mini-skirts put Be- linda Surratt, Angi Atkerson, and Elizabeth Eiledge right in step with current fashion. Dawn Cunningham and Kelly Baker, like most RWA stu- dents, own at least one denim jacket. Blair Feaster, Jessica Davis, and Jackie Williams stick a pose in their mini-skirts, colored stockings, boots, high- tops, and Reeboks.

Spring Fling The warm days of March brought a Senioritis epidemic and gave all the underclassmen the itch. Thoughts of lazy summer days could not be crowded out by the reality of term pa- pers, exams, and grade point aver- ages. The only things that saved us and kept us in touch with school were plan- ning for the prom, participating in spring sports, and looking forward to graduation and the end of school. We used school only as our contact for our social life. by Jan Murray Hbith the spring comes one of George Kings favorite chores- cutting the grass on the baseball field. STUDENT LIFE 11 After School Life When the final bell rings at the end of the school day, students go their separate ways. Many Richard Winn students participate in after school activ- ities. One of these activities is athletics, not only football, basketball, base- ball, tennis, and golf, but also gymnastics and tap and ballet dancing. In fact, many of the lower school girls have won gymnastics awards. Outdoor sports such as hunting is another favorite pastime for Richard Winn stu- dents. Other students can be found at Lake Wateree skiing, even in the win- ter. Many upper school students have part-time jobs after school. These include working in local fast food restaurants, grocery stores, downtown stores and offices, cutting grass, and babysitting. Some students are involved in church youth groups and volunteer work in the community such as the Youth Soil Conservation Board. This group is responsible for planting the trees and bushes around the school as well as other community projects. All of these activities help the students develop their talents and char- acter all of which are important in becoming a well-rounded student, by Rose Owens and Jan Murray Kerri Weed takes her turn at bat in a pick-up game after school as Bill Dove gives some expert advice on how to hold the bat. Sara Boyd Amette, Oini Startsman, Frances Brown, and Erin Weigle have a quick snack after school as they wait with Katherine Brown to go to dance class. 12 STUDENT LIFE Gina Robinson and other members of the Youth Conserva- tion Board are involved in community projects such as planting trees at Richard Winn, Several Richard Winn students, including Teri Barefield, make extra money by working part time at Winnsboro's new McDonald's. Betsy Kinley enjoys her part time job at the new Fagan's Pizza. She works mostly week- end hours so her job doesn't interfere with her school work. STUDENT LIFE 13 Working for the Weekend After studying ail week at school, the Richard Winn stu- dents look forward to the weekend. As Greg Castles puts it, Weekends are for doing exactly what I want to do. The high school students usually spend their week- ends around Winnsboro or in Columbia with their friends or dates. Some of their favorite hangouts are Melton's Mar- ket-EZE and Manhatten. With the opening of McDonald's, RWA students are usually found there grabbing a bite to eat. Some students spend their weekends at the lake skiing while others use their weekends for relaxing and watching tv. Many of the lower school students spend their time with their families or their friends. Mo matter how they spend them, most students live for the weekends, by Jan Murray All dressed up, Janet Spencer is on her way to Columbia to see the play Hamlet at Longstreet Theater on the USC campus. Martha Stevenson, Caroline Wilkins, Bryant Gaddy, and Elaine Mann enjoy cake and ice cream at Caroline's eighth birthday party. 14 STUDENT LIFE Philip Wilkins and Justin Wilson take a break from swimming at the Fairfield County Country Club to snack on ice cream and cupcakes. Getting an energy boost after partying all weekend. Hall Sprott, Joe Brown, and Reid Patrick plot their next move. Anxious to get their weekend started, Ben DuBard and Ken DuBard wait impatiently for their ride which was late on Friday. Ballgames are an important part of weekends. Ten Barefield and Paul Patrick make plans for after the game. STUDENT LIFE 15 Parents Key Our Success What would we do without our parents? When we need them, they are always there, and we owe much of our success to them. They're at all our athletic events, spelling bees, beauty pageants, and recitals rooting for us, celebrating with us when we win, and cheering us up when we lose. Our parents also get involved with school and in- dividual class projects such as bake sales and other fund raisers. This year the Senior Class Parents spon- sored Las Vegas night to raise money for the Senior Trip. A number of parents volunteer regularly to work in the concessions at all home ballgames. In addition, several parents have contributed greatly as coaches. Although we often take our parents' support and help for granted, we do appreciate it. They continually show their class. by Jan Murray Dr. Phil Wilkins enjoyed the snow days in January almost as much as the children. He is seen here with Logan Doty, Julian Doty, Philip Wilkins, Robert Doty, and Caroline Wilkins. Mrs. Candy Kingsmore shows her excitement and pride after Angel Kingsmore was named All-Tournament in basketball. Mrs. Irene Mattox waits to add her congratulations.

Here Mrs. Ann Pope gives her son, Ed Pope, a smile as she rides up. Mr. Heyward Burley helps out in the canteen during the football games. He and a number of other Booster Club members volunteer this service at all home games. odd Childers and David Scott show their appreciation to Mrs, Peggy 4 en who provided a pre-game meal for the football team. It has become iradition for parents to do this.

Jennifer Lubic, Tearn Sweetheart, and Allyson Sanders, homecoming Queen, regain their composure as they begin their ride around the football field in a convertible. Senior Brad Brantley was sponsored by Ally- son Sanders, also a Senior. Senior Mack Johnson was sponsored by Jen- nifer Lubic a Sophomore. Senior football players and their sponsors are Allyson Sanders for Brad Brantley; Rebekah Douglas for Todd Childers; Elizabeth Ellege for David Scott; Teri Barefield for Paul Patrick; Jennifer Lubic for Mack Johnson; Retta Mel- ton for David Goudelock; and Gina Robinson for Paul Gardner. 18 Homecoming Brings Spirit to a Peak Although spirit was high every week during football season, it reached its peak during Homecoming week. The excitement was due in part to wondering who would be elected Homecoming Queen and Team Sweetheart. However, most of the en- thusiasm was generated by the hard-working cheerlead- Mr. F. Carroll Taylor gives his congratula- tions to Jennifer Lubic after she was crowned Team Sweetheart. ers who on each day of the week called for a special dress to show our unity and support of the Eagles. For instance, one day was ''camouflage'' day which turned out to be very popular with all students. The Junior Varsity cheer- leaders led a spirited pep rally to bring the week's activities to a climax. by Tran Daniels Junior football players and their sponsors are Kay Gustafson for Guerry Hensley, Susan Mattox for Jody Wingard, Elliott Hicholson for Doug Ra- ley, Emily Black for Rion Burley (absent from picture), Louise Cathcart for Freddie Glenn, and Dawn Lee for Brad Douglas. An excited Allyson Sanders is presented a bou- quet of red roses from last year's Homecoming Queen Rana Weed. 19 Head basketball coach and athletic director Mike Robinson ex- plains strategy during the Tournament championship gameagainst Robert E. Lee. The athletic program at Richard Winn Academy is really unique. It provides an opportunity for stu- dents to participate in sports activities - opportunities they may not have at larger schools. In addition, at RWA athletes are encouraged to go out for more than one sport. The all-important experience of being a part of a team is not denied our students.

Lead the Class SPORTS DIVIDER 21 Eagles Reap Individual Honors Before the season, many people doubted the Eagles' ability, but dedication, enthusiasm, and togetherness earned them a record of 8-2. All-Conference players David Goudelock, Brad Brantley, Todd Childers, Paul Gardner, Mack John- son, Paul Patrick, David Scotland Rion Burley all played a major role in the team's success.The team was lead by Ernie Hughes who was named Conference Coach of the year. The Eagles dominated their first four opponents: King, Sloan, Catawba, and Hol- ly Hill. Hot only did they win, but held each opposing team to under 7 points. For the next game, the Eagles trav- elled to Orangeburg where they chal- lenged the Orangeburg Prep Indians and slid by them 21-19. This no doubt may be termed the most exciting game of the sea- son. The Eagles went on to beat Calhoun and Thornwell by scores of 47-7 and 54-14 respectively. Their winning streak was broken when the Eagles were halted by the Stallions from Williamsburg. The game was score- less until early in the fourth quarter. Be- cause of the many mistakes made by RWA, Williamsburg edged by with a 6-0 victory. The homecoming game was another nice victory with a score of 25-15 over the Cavaliers of Robert E, Lee from Bishopville. The Eagles ended the 1987 football season with a 15-14 loss to Jefferson Davis. Unfortunately the Eagles didn't qualify for the play-offs due to a complicated point system.

The coaches were proud of the progress that was made and the effort put forth by the team from week to week as they took on what always seemed to be larger teams. Much improvement was observed during the season as the players gained valuable experience and confidence. All the games were close and exciting. It was felt that with a couple of breaks, the JV Eagle s record could have easily been just the opposite. by Coach David Porter The 1987 JV Football team: (Bottom) Jonathon Burroughs, Palmer Nicholson, Greg Clowney, Mi- chael Dickerson, Ryan Bond, Brent Kelly, and manager Benjamin Porter; (Second Row) John Le- grand, John Martin, John Lewis, Jarrett Douglas, Robbie Davis, Bill Dove, manager Joe Renwick; (Third Row) Matt Renwick, Cal Caldwell, Jason Burroughs, Coaches David Porter and D.

In this game, the Eagles faced men bigger than they and this would only be the first of their taller opponents. However, the height dis- advantage did not deter the Eagles. Solid inside play by Dean Branham and Scott Douglas helped set up the outside game for their leading scorer, Freddie Glenn. In addition. Bo Wil- liams and Brian Bonds made their presence known after returning injur- ies. Brad Douglas directed the offense from the guard position. A win over Sloan in Columbia be- gan a three game winning streak for the Eagles which was broken by a one point loss to Catawba.

Coach Deborah Russell's varsity girls' basketball team lost in the first round of the State play- offs to Laurence Manning. Our team had fin- ished the season tied with Calhoun, but a loss in the finals of the conference tourna- ment put us on the road to start the play- offs. LMA proved too much for our young team which graduates only one player, guard Retta Melton. Despite this loss, the girls had every rea- son to be proud. Several of them gained in- dividual honors at the close of the season. The team's leading scorer, Elizabeth El- ledge was named All-Conference and All- Tournament. She was chosen to play in the State All-Star post season game. Senior Retta Melton was named All-Conference for her consistant play all season. Sophomore center Angel Kingsmore was also chosen All-Tournament. Joining Elizabeth Elledge to represent Richard Winn on the State All- Star team was Junior guard Gina Robinson. Other players who saw plenty of action this year were Sophomore Rebekah Doug- las, Freshman Ann Marie Burley, and Fresh- man Millie Mincey. Junior Janet Spencer and Sophomore Beth Douglass received valu- able experience which will pay off in the fu- ture. Coach Russell was proud of the team's accomplishments this year and believes they will again be a contender next year.

They defeated Robert E. Lee in the first game and then lost to Cal- houn in the championship game. The team finished a strong second for the year in the conference. For some of the girls it was their first year playing basketball. The team ranged in grade from sixth up to the ninth. Most of the girls had valuable playing time that helped them gain the experi- ence they will need in future sea- sons. The two leading scorers for the season were Ashlee Spires and Keleigh Hughes. Also contributing to the team were Michele Davis, Emily Black, Jacqueline Case, Hannah Rambo, and Nicki Hum- phries. Defense also played an im- portant role in the JV Girls' record of 10-7. The team was coached by Deborah Russell who stressed the fundamentals of ball-handling and team play.

Our group was represented at the SCISSA general meeting and the fall convention. Also as a part of SCISSA, the Stu- dent Council participated in Student Exchange Week with Washington Avenue Christian School. This program allowed several students from each school to attend classes at their partner schools. At RWA the Student Council sponsored Safety Town for grades K-3on November 17. SafetyTown is a program presented by the Missing Persons Infor- mation Center. The program tells children what to do in the event they are separated from their parents at busy places. The council also sold carnations and bal- loons for Valentine s Day and started the Student of the Month program. They attended the Spring SCISSA convention at Myrtle Beach where several our our stu- dents ran for a state office.

They all agreed that the school does exhibit class, but they cited a number of different ways. Their responses are revealed beside their pictures, by Elliott Nicholson and Beth Douglass Individuals 42 PEOPLE Mrs. Joy Taylor's computer class created programs that involved number games for lower school students.

They help develop the whole child. by Beth Douglass FACULTY 45 Students Visit Washington, D.C. The study of our nation's history took on greater meaning to middle school students this year when they went on a 3-day trip to Washington, D.C. in April.

Carroll Taylor is very proud of Richard Winn Academy. Although all private schools are striving for the same goals of preparing students for college, he feels that a better facility, more pride, and a conscientious staff set us apart, Mr. Taylor further believes that the young peo- ple who have come through Richard Winn and have continued their education to become respectable citizens make all the effort worth it. Another aspect that he believes adds class to RWA is the impression our students give to others when we participate in sports events, chorus trips, bees, etc. by Elliott Nicholson Ms. Bobbi Stevenson teaches typing and is school secretary.

Later, after a study of local govern- ment, Sheriff Bubba Montgomery came to speak to the class. The class also went on a trip to the Fairfield Coun- ty Museum. The ultimate field trip was taken in April when the class and some parents spent three days in Washington, D.C. A highlight of the year came when the class became a part of Project Business.

As a part of Confrontation Point Ministries, she joined other youth in a special proj- ect to add a room to a needy family's cabin in the Tennessee mountains. In July the group of young people camped for six days where they were divided into groups that took turns cooking, cleaning up the campsite, and planning worship services. When they were not working, the teenagers went swimming, hiking, and even repelling offa natural rock bridge. Kathy hopes to participate again in a similar project. Not only did she feel that she had done something worthwhile to help others, but she really enjoyed the close friendships made last summer. by Greg Castles Kathy Leitner does her part as she and her friends work on a spe- cial youth project in Tennessee last summer.

Although each member of the class has a different person- ality, they all enjoy one an- other's company. They have fun eating, vacationing, and study- ing together. Last summer most of the girls went to the beach together as a group. Myrtle Beach may never be the same.

Junior Year Is Busy One We Juniors had our hands full this year with academics and numerous extra-curricular activi- ties. In addition to trying to raise enough money to sponsor a super prom, we were active partici- pants in sports, clubs, and Student Council pro- jects. If that wasn't enough, the teachers kept pour- ing work on us as if there would be no tomorrow, Mr. John McSwain's high expectations of his chemistry and Algebra III students put pressure on us and made us old before our time. Writing the term paper for U.S. History was no breeze either. Mrs. Murray couldn't understand why we didn't have time to read five long novels along with all of our other work. Mr. Stogner never let up on the homework or the pop tests. Mrs. Bil- Iingsly required all of those journal reports month after month after month. It was pretty evident to us that these teachers sometimes got their priorities mixed up! by Aimee Price Danielle Dunn Elizabeth Elledge Freddie Glenn Kay Gustafson Guerry Hensley Jennifer Hunt Betsy Kinley Susan Mattox Ed Pope Required book covers are soon covered with grafetti that reflects the student's interests. JUNIORS 77 Juniors Profit with Games In the fall, the class participat- ed in Family Day at Drawdy Park. They provided a football toss in which prizes were awarded to the lucky winners. Later that day a dart throw was added to the fun. Be- tween customers the Juniors tried to show their expertise in throwing the football. This game was a big hit, and the Juniors made a nice profit on this project. At homecoming the Juniors were again busy. They sponsored the traditional dance after the foot- ball game. Seniors Todd Childers and Scott Peak helped out by pro- viding the sound system and act- ing as DJ's. During the winter months the class continued to add money to the treasury with several other projects. A candy-filled pumpkin at Halloween and a box of candy at Valentine were raffled as well as a stereo at Christmas. All of these projects helped make The Time of Our Life” a re- ality at the Prom where Formula 7 entertained, by Aimee Price The Junior Class officers are Fred- die Glenn, Secretary; Ed Pope, Treasurer; Brian Bonds, Vice-Presi- dent; and Dean Branham, Presi- dent.

JUNIORS 79 Class of 1988: A Winning Team The Seniors of Richard Winn Academy are winners! Almost everyone has set goals for the future, and we all are determined to meet them; but, more importantly, we have developed win- ning friendships that will last a lifetime. Most of us have seen Richard Winn rise to the great institu- tion that it is today. We all shared tears when we saw it fall in the 1984 tornado. We all thought, I was there just four hours ago.” Sharing the sad times and the fun times at Camp La Vida and the Old Armory made us closer. 1 guess in a way the tornado was good for us because that's when we became the close fami- ly of friends we are today. We have some great memories of our years here- our dreams, our schemes, our plans, and our secrets. We have defi- nitely made our mark on Richard Winn, no matter how smart, how athletic, or how rebellious we all may be, we are very glad to be the class with character, and we will cherish our memo- ries. Our achieving may not all be trophies and awards, but our own individual qualities and friendships make us winners. by Lori Atkerson Lori Atkerson believes that where she lays her head isn't as im- portant as just being with her friends at the beach. Getting to leave school for lunch is a Senior privilege that Mack Johnson makes the most of. As long as they keep their grades up, the Seniors have thirty' minutes to make a quick trip for fast food.

Recuperating from a football injury, Paul Gardner is cheered by a “Country Bear ' a gift from some of his friends. Like most teenage girls, Angi Atkerson finds that there is something special about having a teddy bear for a friend. One Last Game To Remember My friends and I were all excited about the last football game of our Senior year at Richard Winn, We thought we'd have one last big win that we would never forget. However, winning or losing became the least of our worries. During the second quarter of the game at Jeffer- son Davis, we were winning seven to nothing when suddenly I heard unusual yelling on the football field. Someone shouted Paul is hurt! For a minute no one said a word. We were all in shock. Then peo- ple started running out on the field and motioning for the ambulance. My heart dropped to my knees as I remembered how excited Paul Gardner and the other football players had been about the game. In about ten minutes he was in the ambulance. Still not a word had been spoken in the crowd. I could see the worry on the faces of the other football players. Later that night we found out that Paul Gardner had a compound fracture in his left leg and would go to surgery as soon as possible. The other players told us that Paul had joked I'm glad they're filming this; I wouldn't want to do this again. He didn't need to worry because we would never forget that night. by Jan Murray Participating in two sports each Paul Gardner and Retta Mel- ton are MOST ATHLETIC in the class. Both are team leaders and outstanding players.

After about two months at the station, Ashley was given his own program playing country music hits for five hours a day. Ashley really enjoys his job and even ad- mits that country music is beginning to grow on me. During his time on the air he sits in a room covered with posters of country music stars. In front of him is a table full of switches and knobs for playing records which are cod- ed for easy selection. In addition to providing music for a 22-mile radius of Winnsboro, Ash- ley reads over twenty commercials a day. This senior seems to be a natural for this unique job and plans to study mass communications in college. So, one day in the not-too-distant future, that familiar voice heard on the top FM station may be none other than Richard Winn's own Ashley Wilson. by Allen Mattox Color coded record jackets make selection quick and easy for Ashley Wilson as he plays country music on WIMF, His smooth, deep voice make him DJ material. Christian Leitner Allen Mattox Retta Melton SENIORS 87 A Day in Boy's Life Allen Mattox was surprised that he had to wear a yellow chicken hat when he was chosen to be an ex- tra in the movie Boy's Life. Me was chosen to be in the movie after his mother filled out a card with his description and provided picture for the people selecting the movie's extras. A few weeks after applying, the wardrobe manager called Allen to come to her office to try on clothes. Later Allen was sent to Drakes Duck-In Restaurant in Co- lumbia where a scene from the movie was being filmed. In this scene, Allen had to sit at a table in the background and goof off with the waitresses. Along with the chicken hat that had a beak and a red fur ball on top, Allen also wore faded blue jeans, old tennis shoes, and a worn-out shirt. Allen said that is was exciting, but he felt a little dumb in the chicken hat. by Jan Murray Greg Castles and David Scott assist Todd Childers in doing an outline for extra credit in Economics before homeroom. Movie star, Allen Mattox, chills out while he reviews his script for the movie Boy's Life in which he appeared in two scenes. 88 SENIORS Pain Is Gain for Goudelock Does bodybuilding really work? Ask David Goudelock, Four years ago people wouldn't have believed that David would be a great football player. However, he has been named All-Conference twice and All-State. He has accom- plished this through weight lifting. David started lifting weights in the ninth grade. Three years ago he could bench press only 100 pounds; now, he presses 240, which is almost twice his weight. He has grown two inches taller and has gained twenty-five pounds. His exercise routine requires no special diet, and David does not take vitamins, but he has taken amino acids. Hot only does David lift weights to better himself in football, but to improve his appearance. This physical accomplish- ment has carried over into his personal life and has given him self-confidence. Today, David continues to lift weights three days a week for an hour and a half because he plans to continue football in college. However, he recommends weight lifting to everyone because he sees the benefits it has given him athletically and personally. „ . , by Ten Barefield Weight lifting has really paid off for David Goudelock who has developed his body and talents to become an All-Conference and All-State football player.

Brandon Propst Philip Rambo Leigh Richardson SENIORS 91 Melton Saddles Up Rhett Melton, a senior, has chosen iorses as his hobby. He competes locally n various races and shows. The type of radng Rhett mostly does is barrel-racing, ie has competed in the S.C. State Fair here he placed second and fourth. This is the third year that Rhett has seen involved in barrel-racing competi- khi, which is a rodeo sport where a horse s ridden around a clover-leaf pattern, and tie winner is determined by the one who las the fastest time. Penalties, such as mocking over a barrel, can cause a de- duction of five seconds from the official ime. Barrel-racing takes time, dedication, and money. Rhett spends time every day deeding and exercising his four-year-old quarter-horse, Sassy. In order to pay for some of the expenses involved, Rhett jives riding lessons to children after school. In addition to barrel-racing, Rhett is interested in other activities that involve horses. Some of these activities include participating in various horse shows, and helping Ellen Acres provide horses for dif- ferent movies. Rhett receives his information about norse shows and races primarily by mail, he says it is not much trouble to prepare :or these events if you take good care of your horse and familiarize it with the dif- ferent racing techniques.

Class Favorites The 1988 Aerie Staff took a poll with the Class of '88 to find out about their fa- vorite pastimes, favorite people, and even their advice to the underclassmen. In this poll I found that the Seniors love to watch TV, especially the soaps and the comedy shows, and that most of them spend our weekends with their friends. Also many Seniors enjoy eating junk- food, especially pizza and french fries. The favorite movie by far is Dirty Dancing, which probably was chosen because of the girls' fantasy boyfriend, Patrick Swayze, and the favorite singing group is the Eagles. The advice for the underclassmen is to study, study, study and to make the most of the years at Richard Winn - they won't last long. by Jan Murray Advice to underclassmen: Study.

Scott Douglas 126 SENIOR BABY PICS Recording a Memorable Year The job of recording this school year began last summer when Leigh Richardson, sponsor Mrs. Caro Lynn Murray, and 1 went to yearbook workshop at Wofford College. There we began planning, drawing layouts, writing copy, and working on our theme for this year's book. We chose Class Counts as our theme because we think that Richard Winn is made up of peo- ple who continually show their class by keeping their standards high when the popular thing to do is not to care so much. We believe that class still counts in today's world and that it does make a difference. We wanted to produce a classy yearbook because our students deserve the best Tor this reason we have made several changes to up-grade our book. We added more copy (stories), used more explicit cap- tions (picture identifications), added an index, and produced almost all of our own pictures. Much of this was made possible by using a new computer that Leigh and I learned to use at yearbook workshop and then taught other staff members. Producing this book has cost many hours of hard work, and I thank the staff for sacrificing their week- ends when it was necessary. We hope this yearbook is pleasing to you our readers for that will make the hard work worthwhile. Editor-in-Chief Aerie Business Managers Leigh Richardson and Fran Jolly are responsible for Keeping financial records and laying out the ad section. Proofreading computer print-outs of pages is only one of Jan Murray's responsibilities as Editor-in-Chief. Beth Douglass and Elliott Nicholson work together on the class and faculty sections. Ray Gustafson and Aimee Price, the Junior Editors, create the Sports and Organizations sections. 128 CLOSING WALS WORTH PUBLISHING COMPANY MAHCELINE. MISSOURI 94� 5fl
