LEEWAY 75, Vol. 16 Robert E. Lee High School Staunton, Virginia 24401 CAUTION human beings here CF Construction Is Theme Of | 74-V5 Leeway i 8:25-Monday; August 26,1974. The first bell of a new week announced the beginning of a three year construction project for ‘i 298 sophomores. The final plase, begun in 1972, was also instituted for 306 seniors. The projected building plans for 354 juniors were accomplished and phase two was be¬ gun on the said date. Various methods of construction were employed rang¬ ing from athletics to academics. Local I materials were used extending in size d from three feet to seven feet. Colors included black, white, yellow, and red. The personality of the materials gave the building a unique taste ranging from contemporary modern to medieval gothic. Work at the site was directed by construction crew fore¬ man, Mr. Charles Kurtz. Construction was designed to continue from Lee i into a normal life span. The building was planned to be one of an ingenious design. Understanding, like a warm ray of light, floods the blind paths of knowledge leaving Kathy Garris in the shadows of its immensity. Signs of the times invade a classroom with a warning reminding all onlookers of other peo¬ ple ' s membership in the human race too. Brotherhood and friendship circulate through the halls of Lee, as the students find out that a little smile from your friends always helps. Straining every muscle, Phil Andrews, John McPherson, and Billy Sowers really turn on the heat as they run in unison towards the finish line. I ' ve got you covered! Paul Edwards keeps a watchful eye open for intruders entering the bandroom with a warning to stay clear. Wary of hidden monsters lurking in the dark, a Leeman cautiously peeks in before he de¬ cides the way is clear and entering is safe. Sophomores get a small taste of student life as Mr. Charles Kurtz and the SCA officers pro¬ vide ideas and policies of high school living. Scattered, spread, and ready for the organiza¬ tion the construction process entails are the materials of which the future is built. Building of Ingenious Design—3 I Humor is sometimes a strange thing. Joey Hodges acts as a prompter to insure that an unsure au¬ dience laughs at the right time. Tingles of excitement eventually lead to a slow smile as Brenda Wilkerson relaxes, while the team pulls out of a sticky situation. It ' s been a hard week. Tucker Smith escapes to the safety of a doorway with a last sign of relief that it ' s Friday. Mixed emotions greet the entrance of a shy Lee¬ way photographer into a sociology class in search of reason and some understanding. A Variety Of Involvement, Apathy Join To Form A Leeman what is a Leeman? Disillusioned or apathetic persons calmly shunned any connection with the term or simply endured the years until graduation. School spirited people labored at making posters, promotion, selling. distributing, and simply participating. Time passed and the great variety of the two extremes rubbed, mixed, and jelled. The final product was a Leeman. ! 4—A Building of Ingenious Design Endless long hours of hard practice reflect the determination to succeed and win, paying off not only in actually winning, but in pride. Longing for another weekend, Lynn Stoops daydreams over past memories and present thoughts as she prepares to face a new Monday. Rapid absorption through osmosis gets the studying done as senior Ann Wilson demon¬ strates a new unique method of cramming. A Building of Ingenious Design—5 1 straining his ears to detect the possible footsteps of Boise Taylor, Robert Price waits apprehensively as Levis Brown sits calmly by. Can you identify these men? The big three, Brent Fielding, Chris Folweiler, and Richard Knuckalls line up for the mug-shot. Flashing a toothy smile at the photographer, Mark Tinsley takes time out from studies to just sit back and relax in economics. A Leeman Is A Small Part Of The Whole what is a Leeman? Varieties of emotions, attitudes, beliefs, personalities, and thoughts, got up early, reported to homeroom, went to classes, ate lunch, and finally either went to work, home, practice, or meetings. All had a common goal, to graduate. Each in his own way contributed something simply because he was there. Some did more, some didn ' t bother. But to take a piece from the whole was to find a Leeman. Once third quarter is over, band members fin¬ ally get to devote their entire attention to the field, and Robin Knopp is content. Right at home, secure, and comfortable, senior Diana Creger turns to make sure all passengers have everything and are ready to go. Finding time to catch up for sleep missed after writing a term paper all night, Debi Eriksen dem¬ onstrates a school tradition — sleeping. Unable to decide if either a big smile or hearty frown is appropriate, Scott Schoenhut just leaves it as a middle ground smirk. A Building of Ingenious Design—7 Although they weren ' t able to particpate in the meet, the girls of the cross country team avidly cheer on their fellow teammates. Clowning around in the halls is a common pas¬ time and Jimmy Jones, William Crawford, and William Harden are experts on the subject. Joking comes naturally to Thayer Phillips as he introduces the Lee Tradition to newcomer Vicki Valz, who easily catches on. Friendships Develop During School Year Strange faces became not so strange as the early weeks of school flew by with new friendships growing and the steady daters becoming known. Smoking buddies raced out between classes to share a last few drags before dashing back in. Overloaded lockers spilled out books every time the door was opened as people seemed to gravitate towards one locker between classes. Eventually that certain place to meet everybody else at the last bell, lunch¬ time, and mornings was discovered and from there on acted as a magnet the rest of the year. Every minute was spent in reaching out. 8—A Building of Ingenious Design With hot dogs for ears how can Pam Rexrode help but listen better. Maybe a little catsup and mustard will help the concentration. As his concentration slips away from the art ex¬ hibit, James Taylor glances over another interest¬ ing subject, Sandy Middleton. ' It won ' t fit! bellows Kim Burton, as the color guard tries to squeeze the flag through before the bus leaves for Harrisonburg. It ' s only puppy love, but boy, does it feel good as a visitor at Lee just can ' t make it through another crowded hall without help. Fun Loving Students Test Teachers Superfunablissability slowly oozed out on the usual rainy Monday mornings or just landed in huge clumps at unex¬ pected times. Fun loving groups and individuals kept students and teachers on their toes with strange antics and organized jokes and initiations. The purpose? A smile. Seniors swarm around Mrs. Becky Harvill when the final number in their assembly is over. Is the fun ending or just beginning? Playing peek-a-boo with the cameraman, senior Chris Moyers finds it impossible not to take a quick glance from behind the stand. Finding Jeff Brooks ' nose irresistible, senior Donna Corbin takes time out between classes to practice with her private punching bag. Giving the band a refreshing break, Rodney Huffman rests his weary feet after a long parade and grabs the first available seat. 10—A Building of Ingenious Design Demonstrating that there is more than one way to eat a fruit cup, Dan Yeago finds the drinking technique more to his liking. Not too many people can actually get in a locker but photographer and cave explorer Dike Rice finds the position almost comfortable. Thespian initiation influenced strange costumes and weird stunts such as Terry Pierce reciting the pledge to all in the cafeteria. A Building of Ingenious Design—11 Tennis crosses the paths of many students, but whether in p.e. or for pure pleasure, it is a sport enjoyed by all who try it. Our nearly empty hamburger joint awaits the onslaught of famished students as they come to rehash the big game and satisfy appetites. Fads are raging at all schools everywhere and Lee is no exception as noted by a pair of sporting, ragged jeans and two-toned shoes. 12 A Building of Ingenious Design High soles and classy knee socks adorn the legs Pictures and slogans turn a drab locker door of Leewomen as they casually inch up the old into a collage of popular fads to brighten mo- pants legs for viewers to admire. ments and for a wakeup before school. Students’ Dress Displays Individuality Excited basketball coaches gazed at wonderful height striding down the halls only to experience a big let down as students proudly displayed multi-inched, multi-colored platform shoes, and mod bear traps. Madly designed apparel distinguished every¬ one ' s individuality with a new any length, color, or style goes concept of dress. Eventually those spots to head for after the big game for hamburgers, pizza, or beverage became the meeting places for buddies on Friday nights. Sonny J., the Godfather, rock stars on the top forty , the bump, soul hand shakes, earth shoes, painting jeans, multi-hair lengths, and multi-interests, collectively made for a new way of life. Football talk flows from Sonny ' s number 1 fan, Judy Bonin, and Bob Griese ' s fan, Carol Butler, as to which is the best quarterback. A Building of Ingenious Design—13 Cooperation Proves Key To Success Eventually the words — student, teach¬ er, and administration began to inter¬ mingle as each realized the necessity of working together. Fund drives, journal¬ ism deadlines, dances, and decisions brought the three into contact. Some differences were compromised and the walking was made smoother. Joint efforts sometimes produced trophies and high honors, other times a simple handshake. Interdependence some- ; times brought intimacy, other times j sheer dislike, but the encounter was | made; thus, marking a beginning. Future Business Leaders of America Pam Wimer and Gail Faught count money from fund raising projects under advisor Mrs. Sue Wilson. Carefully examining a layout for the annual, Susie Miska and Debi Eriksen figure out how they can squeeze in just one more picture. Senior class council meets during activity period . with their class advisor, Mrs. Becky Harvill, to j discuss the business at hand.

Accuracy is of utmost importance when keeping statistics at a game, which Mr. Ernest Holley well knows as he awaits the game ' s beginning. Whether discussing a sports event or school activity, vice principals Delmer Botkin and Alphonso Hamilton welcome a break in their day. Curlers and bobby pins wielded by the steady hands of Carol Kerrigan help transform Bev Smith into the innocent farmer ' s daughter.

A Building of Ingenious Design—15 16—Materials 1 Students Show Potential In Construction With the students or materials supplying the substance of the building, construction at the site proceeded with no lack of general potential. Sophomores mixed and poured a variety of subjects and activities to establish a solid foundation for later additions and future construction, juniors erected walls on their foundation and embellished the building with new life and confidence. Reaching the final stage of this part of construction, seniors gradually finished their roofs and anxiously prepared for the changes and a new design to come after graduation. Materials—17 i ' j • ' MAS VRY i. ‘‘Advisorless” Sophs. Carry On Business Without an adviser, the sophomores had to acquire responsibility quickly. Sandy Bonin, president, put forth much effort to lead her class through two major projects. Vice-president Allison Havill, secretary Terry Grant, and treasurer Terry Lafon worked eagerly to help. Joining with the SCA, the sophomores held a magazine drive and made $1200. Lee Summers, Kathy Mizzi, and Eric Todd were awarded prizes for selling the greatest amount of magazine subscriptions. Sophomore girls were not estatic after being bombarded with eggs during the powder-puff game. Losing with a score of 22-0 didn ' t help either! The sophomore class was a melting pot of students from Shelburne and John Lewis junior Highs, working together to complete their first year at Lee High. Stacks of cement await the beginning of con¬ struction for sophomores as they prepare to lay a foundation for another two years at Lee. 18—Pouring Concrete Cheryl Agnor Kathy Armstrong Mike Barnett Johnny Alexander Steve Armstrong Mitchell Beard Debbie Allen Robert Ashby Debbie Benson James Altizer Debbie Back John Benton Grace Andersen Ruby Balser R.

Debbie Back and Cheryl Agnor braved the cold to take part in marching band activities. JV football caught the energies of R. J. Blincoe, Mike Barkley, and Robby Ashby. Nature beckoned Chipper Benton through the Outdoor Club while Betty Armstrong got some fresh air via Powder Puff football. Teresa Blum found self expression in the Peacock Ice and Mitchell Beard turned his interests to the wrestling team. Basketball takes its toll on the players after the struggle for the lead, and Rita Miller takes a break from “combat.

Marty Brannock, Charles Burnette, and Tony Cicirette breathed football for an entire season while Carol Bostic dumped basketballs through hoops for the JV girls. Lee Benefits From Sophomore Talent Pouring Concrete—21 Sports Draw Enthusiasts Of Both Sexes Dribbling the ball for the JV Participation was high in sports. JV football attracted Dennis Cobb, Jim Digges, Victor Douglas, and John Duncan. Pam Doyle and Emerson Deitz made their presence known on the football field during the Marching Leemen half-timeshows. Girls got into the football act too as Margie Flanagan, Heidi Doak, and Cathy Crone played on the powderpuff team. Crystal Dunnings was elected to the homecoming court as well as being a sensation on the jV basketball team, juelene Crawford and Karen Dunnings added their talents to the team, too. basketball team were jimmy Cook, Matt Corten, Jim Digges, and Victor Douglas.

Pep club members Heidi Grasty, Rob¬ in Hall, Diana Jack, and Allison helped to cheer for the likes of Gary Haston in football, Andy Guertler in wrestling, and Gary Hart in cross country track. Majorette Cheryl Garrison marched to the tunes of Alan Harvis, Ricky Huff, Tami Harris, and Anne Henderson of the marching Leemen. Pam Good, Le- wana Harlow, and Joyce Hensley were very active in AFS while Patty Holsinger participated in the SCA.

Wrestling Is Outlet For Energy Managing the wrestling team of which Steve Kluge and Dari Laidman were a part, occupied much of Victor Knicely ' s time. Discovering the great outdoors proved to be challenging to Linda Koogler and Beverley Masin- cup through the Outdoor Club. Music seemed to be a specialty with band members, Debra Krisher, Carol Jordan, Lynn Lichtfuss, and Rusty Malcolm. A liberated sophomore, Sally Lowe, took up cross-country running with a team composed largely of males.

He was also active in AFS and debated. Musicians Bruce Stanley, Cathy Stanley, Robin Stanley, and Eric Todd played in the Lee High band. Dean Roberson, also musically inclined, sang for the Lee High Choir. Being physically active attracted many people into sports. Donald Roby and Howard Sharp played for the jV football team as Coe Truslow managed the varsity players. Robert Stuart played for the jV boys basketball team while Debbie Titchenell played for the girls ' team. Cross country and indoor track attracted Lee Summers and Gary Toles.

Mrs. Vicki Shiflett advised the class on how to promote a successful prom while the juniors assisted her with a party for the VSD children. Sharon Baker, Sonja Scott, Dee Flavin, and Dean Kurtz led their class through bake sales, candy sales, candle and stationary sales, and the Tom Watt sales project. Many juniors showed up with brooms and eager smiles to clean the stadium during football season on Saturday mornings. After endless decorations meetings, satisfaction reigned over the junior class as they enjoyed the royal dance with their upperclassmen. Excitement filled the halls as the juniors prepared for their upcoming privileges as top classmen. sturdy foundations support strong walls as juniors add on to the structure in preparation for the finishing stages of the senior year. 34—Putting Up Walls Tina Acord Kathy Ambler Sara Anderson Daphne Andrews Mark Anthony Lynne Armentrout Thelma Armstrong Allan Ballenger Sara Baker Sharon Baker Larry Barrett Lee Beam Ann Beard Kathy Beathe Millie Becks David Bell Roberta Berry Max E losser Jrs.’ Interests Prepare Them For Sr. Year “Busy was the word for Sharon Baker, as she led the junior class through the year, and divided the rest of her time between jV cheerleading and the band.

The Leeword benefitted from the hours of Brian Butterfield that were not sp ent doing homework. Tammy Chittum spent many of her free hours practicing routines with the other Lee High majorettes, while Chrissy Cash and Cindy Clemmer spent theirs practicing with the drill team. School demands didn ' t stop Milton Brown from giving extra time to the SCA as treasurer. Sports beck¬ oned Gregg Clatterbaugh as a golf team member. David Chaffins played varsity basketball and Robert Carper on the varsity football team.

Robin was also a DE student along with classmates John Rusnak, Sue Runyon, Rachael Rodgers, and Barry Powers. Exercising those muscles and running seemed to captivate track team members, Bobby Rhea, Michael Reed, Mike Pilson, and Donald Rice. Donald Rice really got in shape as he doubled as president of the Outdoor Club along with junior member, Paul Rimel. Paul Rimel dedicated many hours to the school choir and so did Charles Richie, Stephen Race, Sarah Perkins, Sharon Puffenbarger, and Kathryn Peeler.

Putting Up Walls—51 Class Gift Emerges As Seniors’ Main Goal Seniors began the year with a few money making projects. They sold Fighting Leemen license plates and pencils in order to secure enough money for a class gift. President Anthony Hamilton worked with vice- president Paul Edwards, secretary Sharon Harman, and treasurer T. G. Mace to plan senior activities. Class adviser, Mrs. Becky Harvill enjoyed learning the bump at the senior Christmas party, while some students preferred playing ping pong and basketball. Seniors entertained. the student body and faculty with a Christmas play. Students trans¬ formed into sugar plums, snowballs, Hershey kisses, a grinch and jolly old Saint Nick through the spirit of Christmas.

Academics and combinations of sciences, languages, histories, and mathematics provided the unanimous choice of a solid foundation. Natural aptitude came into consideration as the building began to take shape and rise. Adaptation and utilization of talents broadened the potential of the materials. Interaction and participa¬ tion on all levels from student govern¬ ment to extracurricular activities developed the well roundedness of the material. Athletics encouraged through teamwork and training was still another form of development for the materials. Completion of each stage of construction brought a time in which to reflect and once again set new goals. The knowledge of achievements and defeats provided the impetus for new beginnings and perhaps the basis of even higher achievement. Methods of Construction—69 Being attentive in class is important in retaining information for tests as Susan Bottenfield and Robyn Bridges experience this discovery. Relaxation and laughter replace good old fash¬ ioned hard work for Mike McLear and Sylvia Stewart as they temporarily forget about biol¬ ogy. Concentration is mirrored in Melissa Sower ' s face as she ponders the world of plants, animals, and insects in her science class. 70—Methods of Construction .1 Smelly Halls Are Result Of Soph. Biology Strange smells pervaded the halls as sophomore biology classes viewed the innards of the animal and plant worlds through dissections, and as chemistry classes observed reactions while performing experiments. Various physics students were thought to be reverting into a second childhood as they happily combined work with play while experimenting with pulleys and slinkies while studying energy and force. New chapters introduced the uses of calculators, scalpels, microscopes, cassettes, tubing, formulas, films, and a great variety of media and materials available. Biology takes on numerous facets for 3rd period individuals as they engage in talking, clowning, or even studying while awaiting the bell. Essential to tackling the tough problems that arise on chem. test such as chapter 29 is the skill of a well prepared chem. student. Silent war rages.

Methods of Construction—71 Math classes work on constructing careers re¬ lated to geometry after being inspired by the display that the teacher put together. Absentees hamper a good session in a classroom, and Mr. James Christy seems to have more than his share during 3rd period geometry. Mathematics Encompass Numbers,Theory] Surrounded by numbers, polygons, and theorems, the 1974-75 session at Lee involved many students in various branches of mathematics. General math students learned the basic techniques, while geometry students memorized theorem after theorem. Logarithms and binomials captivated the brains of those who studied algebra trig. A real challenge was faced by the Lee students who chose to continue their math fields by taking analysis, and finally the ultimate ... calculus. Math teachers used visual materials and other problem-solving instruments. Some students made it, others didn ' t, but there was a general satisfaction among the determined mathematicians when grades appeared each six weeks. t 1 72 — Methods of Construction Notebooks, textbooks, absentee sheets, planning schedules, and others, all unite teacher and stu¬ dent with a common headache of homework.

French and Spanish students taking second or third year concentrated on speaking the language and learning the culture. As extra projects, students worked on literary reports, drawings, making flags, maps, and foods of the different countries. Advanced students tuned in to the closed circuit television sets to produce programs, soap operas, and commercials.

Hosted by the Stanley Cline family, Arild arrived in the summer to get acquainted with his new home before classes opened. With the opening of school came a chance to meet new people and get a first hand look at student life and culture in America. Unfamiliar customs were a major hurdle but the AFS club got orientation off to a good start with a covered dish supper honoring both Arild and his new family. During a Christmas assembly, Arild was pre¬ sented a ring by the senior class. Sec¬ ond semester rolled around and Arild found himself deluged with invitations from schools and civic organizations to speak on his homeland. Lee High opened its eyes and took notice as Arild made a lasting impression on the school and community of Staunton. Senior class vice-president, Paul Edwards, pre¬ sents our foreign exchange student, Arild Jo¬ hannessen, with a class of 75 school ring.

All FCA conversations aren ' t that deep as trea¬ surer Larry King and advisor Mark White will profess. FBLA, FHA, FCA, Media Aids Give Services Reactivating the FBLA club into a productive chapter took a great deal of work. Acting as the advisor to the club, Mrs. Sue Wilson with the aid of officers Pam Wimer and Billy Atkins got the club involved in several service projects. Providing fantastic refreshments for SCA func¬ tions was just one of many activities of the FHA. Led by Cindy Casson and Susan Collins with advice from Mrs. Dorothy Wood and Miss Marietta Bever¬ age, the club also gave a food basket away at Christmas time. The FCA under the leadership of Paul Ziccardy con¬ tinued their tradition of service oriented projects such as Christmas caroling to shut-ins.

Drill Team Helps Band Entertain Fans At Half-Time Routines and dances were performed by the drill team as they entertained the crowds during half-time at the football games. Mrs. Carolyn Kinzie advised the twenty girls on which way to wave their flags and where and when to shake their pom-poms. The girls led by co-captains, Ginny Byrd and Karen Wagner, proved that they had school spirit by showing up for forty-five minute practices every morning before school and during the summer. Carrying out many money making projects made it possible for the drill team to perform with the band at Disneyworld in Florida over Easter.

Color Guard, Majorettes Keep Busy Participating in countless pre-game and half-time shows and numerous parades, the color guard and majorettes had plenty to keep them busy. Head major¬ ette Melanie Liskey led the corp of twirlers in routines that brought fire batons to Memorial Stadium at spec¬ tacular half-time shows. For both groups, going to Disneyworld with the band proved to be a high point of their year. 124—Methods of Construction 1 Energy is scarce after walking five miles in a pa¬ rade so the color guard members found that flags and rifles held a body up very well.

Homework is a part of almost every course, and Mr. Fred Cook takes time to explain to his DECA students this evening ' s assignment. Service with a smile describes Mrs. Eleanor Sanger, school nurse, as she awaits students. Now do you understand? Mr. Richard Carson applies his interest and his patience in teaching distributive education classes. DE Teachers, Custodians, Nurse, Dietician, Keep Busy Advisors Mr. Richard Carson, Mr. Fred Cook, and Mr. Harry Lunsford kept a healthy glow by pursuing hobbies in the great outdoors, hunting and fishing being the two main attraction s. School nurse Mrs. Eleanor Sanger administered aspirin and bandaids to ailing Lee students, while custodians Mr. Paul Jordan and Estelle Walker kept the halls and classrooms fit for human habitation. Appeasing the appetites of some 980 students kept dietician Mrs. Elsie Fry busy throughout the year. i Always bright-eyed and cheerful, Mr. Harry Luns¬ ford takes time out from one of his lectures in DECA to joke around with the class. Planning the balanced lunches and catering to the students ' needs are school dietician Mrs. Elsie Frye ' s concern. School janitor Paul Jordan pauses to take a breather from sweeping the cafeteria floor after a messy lunch hour.

Lunchtime provides students with nutritionally sound lunches as well as a time to converse with friends or just sit and look. Sanding the side of a partially finished bookshelf, Andy Guertler applies practical knowledge to the reality of construction. Construction Crew—211 212 — Zoning and Planning Seniors Unite As One, Then Become Many Each day of construction brought the material closer to the time in which they would come together as a whole, and then again diversify into separate entities. The end of this stage was met by seniors with graduation, and the decision of simply choosing what new blueprints were to be drawn with a basis of past instruction. All were confronted with the challenge of zoning and planning the site for future construction, additions, renovations, and demolitions. i Zoning and Planning — 213 Empty halls, locked doors, and silence greet a lone club member heading back to her locker for books after an after school meeting. Lunch breaks and study halls are a great time to sneak out for private chats as Laurie Combee, Karen Noffsinger and Sharon Dodson discover. Chief Big Rock and his band aren ' t in sight but a lone cowpoke from Thomas Jefferson Elemen¬ tary takes a last look before heading on. Students Are Caught Up, Regain Control, Construct Time rolled by as each found himself caught in the web and current of things. Often inexplicable somethings and meaning rose from the roar. Brief re¬ spites provided a time to once again place oneself in control. Utter chaos intermingled with these periods and humdrum times of nothingness. To zone and to plan was to take each and to add on to the construction. 214—Zoning and Planning Open windows beckon junior Terri Manley to look outside and view the ongoing world with mixed emotions and a semi-grin. Versatility of materials being studied enables one of Mrs. Pat Gantt ' s English classes to yield to the impulse to go outside and work. Dexterity and capable hands, along with inge¬ nuity enable junior Bobby Cleveland to create out of a pile of sticks a wor k of art. Speeding lights whizz by with amazing velocity as time alternately hesitates and continues carry¬ ing some and leaving others behind. Intent on simple capturing The Preacher on film, a picture taken finds much more in a glance as Preacher Maddox reveals his inner self. Eight words describe it all with Pigpen embody ' ing a basic philosophy that everyone has a dis¬ tinct and unique purpose in life. Each Student Works, Strives To ‘Become’ Becoming became a goal for everyone. Work experiences, odd jobs, career day, college days, and a wide range of sub¬ jects all helped each to discover that special what-to-become. Interaction with faculty often proved to be a prime source of advice. Interaction with fellow students eventually revealed the someness of the situation for all, and then became a source of comfort. Field trips and mock events brought reality somewhat closer to home. Different and unique methods of discovering allowed the building to assume multiple facets. Solemnly escorting the bride to the altar, ' ' father David Huffer feels the pangs of dadhood on the occasion of the mock wedding. Playing a game with friends and a miniature foot- football during lunch provides action and ex¬ ercise after sitting in classes all morning.

Quiet sunset and oncoming darkness end anoth¬ er day with the promise of rain sometime soon as clouds gently obscure the light. Alone at last. Solitude and peace are finally caught on a window ledge as a Leeman escapes for a bit of study and reflection.

The crazy antics, the quiet tears, hours of endless work that one tackles, the impossible one question test, smelly frogs waiting for dis¬ section, the desperation shot at the end of the quarter. A warm smile that hangs over on Saturday morning. Sneaking out to Hardee ' s. The BIG snow. Tramping up three whole flights of stairs in 20 seconds. Meeting that special person after class. Looking out and seeing the first buds. The dark halls. Enthusiastic pep pals. Term papers. Long, long hair turned shorts. To build on was to recall past construction, and proceed. Hastily deserted stands and chairs in an empty bandroom echo the sounds and people in quiet disarray and reflection after the bell. Proudly waving his earnings from a tough job is Cameron PrKt as he ' s dazzled by mean mama Tucker Smith during the Xmas assembly. Hard earned spending money doesn ' t come very easy but Jay Thompson feels fortunate be¬ cause he ' s secured a job unlike many others. Style, determination, and good old fashioned ef¬ fort all combine for the winning service of Myra Ralston as she glides through a winner. Zoning and Planning—219 During a lull in the decorating, several of the workers rest and talk so that they have energy to finish in plenty of time for the dance. Refreshments are more appetizing when the table looks elegant, so Cathy Olmsted and Beca Cowan decorate before the caterers arrive. Organization takes a small turn for the worse, and Jill Rigby stands with arms on hips wishing she knew what was happening next Hanging paper flowers on the wall, Lani Harris and Becky Langfitt help transpose the Armory into a dance hall for the prom. i ! Jrs. Prepare Armory For June 6th Prom With a little over 24 hours to turn the Armory into a beautiful ball¬ room, the juniors had their hands full. Doves and streamers had to be hung, flowers mounted, and a rainbow positioned on the backdrop giving everyone who came plenty of things to do. Music and chatter filled the air but no hands remained idle for long. As the time approached, the armory was cleared i and the task was accomplished. The 1975 jr.-Sr. Prom could begin. Holding the roll of paper, Todd Combee keeps it steady so that Sharon Baker can cut the ' cloths for the tables. Stages for bands take patience as well as con- I structing and decorating as Alan Shull and Karen Goode find out Thursday night. Streamers flow from the center of the floor to the walls. After all the hard work, the construc¬ tors take a break before starting the rest. Zoning and Planning—221 Pictures, pictures,... the king and queen pause from their dancing so that Bob Tavenner can flash another bulb and capture happy moments. Receiving her crown of daisies from Mr. Charles Kurtz, Sandy Middleton smiles happily and king Jose Gomez grins with his crown atop his curls. Even couples to the right, odd couples to the left ... The senior court forms on both sides of the dance floor in the Armory. 222—Zoning and Planning Prom Theme Is ‘A Whiter Shade Of Pale’ Traditionally dressed in long flowing dresses and sandals, the junior and senior girls cajoled their dates into tuxedos despite the money crunch. Couples danced in rhythm to the music of Sandcastle . Large paper flowers and streamers harmonized with the theme A Whiter Shade of Pale . Crowned king and queen were Jose Gomez and Sandy Middleton. Bob Tavenner captured the night on film for the couples. When the band took a break, the dancers paused for food and punch from the colorful refreshment table. The prom was a great finale to another school year, and the end of twelve long years for many. Last year ' s prom queen, Cindy Coffey, stands with Mr. Charles Kurtz and the reigning Icing and queen after giving her crown to the new queen. Senior couples who have already been an¬ nounced wait patiently as the rest are awaiting their turn during the senior court at the prom. 1975 king Jose Gomez is congratulated by Cindy Coffey as the queen, Sandy Middleton, awaits her crown from the principal. Football season ' s end was a long time ago, but Jose Gomez still seems to know what to do with a pigskin thanks to all those practices. Srs. Hold Last Informal Get Together Before Graduation Chicken, potato salad, and all the trimmings glorified the senior pic¬ nic held at Hoy ' s Farm on Saturday, June 7th. Graduating seniors assembled to spend one last fun filled day as a class, enjoying the sun and fun while playing football, frisbee, and horse¬ shoes. Some seniors like Larry John¬ son enjoyed the privilege of going swimming even though they weren ' t dressed for it. After the picnicking and activities, seniors departed, looking forward to tomorrow — graduation. Dr. Pepper stock goes up at the end of thb year when the seniors get together for their annual picnic and drink gallons of D.P. Defending her choice of attire, specifically her shorts, Tammy Atkins is comfortable although others are wearing jeans and jackets. 224—Zoning and Planning Supervisors for the outing at the Hoy ' s farm seem to have faith in their charges so they sit on blank¬ ets and enjoy the year ' s end. Seniors congregate around the food table as chow time draws nigh at the senior picnic to celebrate the end of school. Staying in water below his nose, Mike Garst plays it safe since the inner tube doesn ' t have the appearance of being very stable. I I 1 Zoning and Planning—225 High School Ends For 270 Seniors With Commencement Twelve long but memorable years were over. Encouragement from the com¬ mencement speaker, the Reverend Temple Myers, was well received. Then one by one the 270 seniors with 41.8% as honor graduates were called to the podium by the principal, Mr. Charles Kurtz, to receive that hard earned di¬ ploma. Many were happy but still many were saddened as they looked around and silently said good-bye to their many friends and acquaintances on that cool June night. Then it was over and tassles were flipped as bulbs flashed to immortalize the graduates as they stepped into the future. Relief after twelve long, but fulfilling years are expressed in the antics of graduates Jimmy Jones, Bob Grover, and Tom Tullidge. Commencement speaker the Reverend Temple Myers encourages the 1975 Lee graduates with enlightening thoughts about the future. Commencement presiders, Mr. Charles Kurtz, Mr. T. C. McSwain, Rev. Temple Myers, and Tony Hamilton listen to the valedictory address. 226—Zoning and Planning Glancing around at the camera, Arild Johannes- sen joins in graduation in a foreign country where he spent his last year in school. Smiles brighten the faces of graduates as they sit, diplomas in hand, hardly able to believe that this is really happening to them. Mixed emotions follow high school graduation when girls are happy to be done but sorrowful about separations through different colleges. Zoning and Planning—227 Baby chicks and Easter eggs mark the beginning of warm weather and nice vacation time, along with early signs of acute spring fever. In between tardy bells, students run through a side door, squeeze in a quick smoke, throw a few snowballs, and scoot back into class. Fiendishly grinning Mr. ]ack-0-Lantern patient¬ ly lights the way for all darers to come up and trick or treat for some goodies. Abundant Precipitation Plays Havoc Deluges of snow sent unexpected vaca¬ tion happy Leemen home for hours of sledding and romping while city snowplows tried to clean up the streets enough for a return to school. Unfort¬ unate baseball and tennis players made up postponed game after game while spring rains poured on, often covering entire streets with inches of water. As the months passed seniors with mixed emotions prepared the annual Christmas assembly and senior party, then headed for the senior day, picnic, and graduation exercises. Spring fever epidemics hit the school as some gladly, some tearfully, awaited departure from Lee for three blissful months of summer vacation. 228—Zoning and Planning Spring may not be here officially yet, but with the creek trying to melt the snow, how can it help but be just around the corner. Dogwood petals unfold, as do our high school friendships; carefully they bloom — most radiant when opened to their full extent. Christmas officially comes to Lee with the arrival of Karl ' ' Santa Lawhorn to bring the Christmas spirit to Mark Papa Sterrett. Zoning and Planning—229 r jp VI %.%t , i f Dancing to the finale, Thayer Phillips gamefully accepts the teasing eyes of his peers in producing smiles and fun for all. Students Stand Tall Amidst Gains, Losses Wins, losses, passes, failures, and gains; all mattered. But something else crept into the whirl of construc¬ tion, a kind of standing tall. As athletes, debaters, public speakers, scholars, future homemakers, and all the rest dealt with time limitations, mountains of work, and opponents, it was there, despite the outcome. Heartbreak, nervousness, fear, exhilaration; the richness of experi¬ ence added to the process of learning to stand alone and tall. Walking tall through the large and the small, and the thick and thin, Lee students attempt to grasp a part of the flow of knowledge. Standing by oneself sometimes is a part of the responsibility of class president, and Tony Hamil¬ ton accepts without reservation. 230—Zoning and Planning Friends, faculty, and cheerleaders conglomerate on Shelburne hill, proving that people really do come to see cross country meets. Composure and self assurance flow from a calm Richard Farrier as he crosses the mats to meet his opponent before the match. Sun and warmth brighten up the December chil¬ ly halls as Robin Baker breaks away from the noisy routine for a brief quiet interlude. Jubilation can ' t help but bubble to the surface for Carolyn Hamrick when the team ' s winning and the crowd ' s noisily supporting them. Zoning and Planning—231 Varying senior moods are clearly expostulated as a tr icky photographer captures some con¬ trasts with Peggy Buchanan as his subject. How do you feel about finally graduating after twelve years? Senior Chris Moyers relates his feelings in a simple facial expression. Class rings are proudly displayed by juniors and seniors after all of the years of waiting to finally say ' ' I will be graduating. Turning the mike over to John Dickie, the new SCA president, Thayer Phillips completes the final act of his presidential rein. 232—Zoning and Planning Spring warm air and sunshine all tempt senior Richard Knuckalls enough to head outside and take the long way to his class. Rocky Raccoon peers from his miniature world wondering what those odd things on two legs do in a world of no visible bars. Another year ending means the tallying of ab¬ sences, and for some the process seems rather prying as their illnesses are screened. Signs warn ail prospective parkers to move on¬ ward and search elsewhere rather than stay and take any consequences; the inevitable ticket. Underclassmen Remain, Seniors Decide To Move On Last days of May and early June brought heat soaring into the 90 ' s, sweltering all who entered. Underclassmen envied seniors exempt from exams as they sweated out test after test. New meetings setting plans and blueprints for next year made seniors feel sud¬ denly old and no longer really a part of things. As the last day of scheduled building approached, all were unanimous in that it was time to move on.

And this giving will become your offering To whatever goal. It does not matter Except tor the fact that you give And learn to take Graciously if possible, It makes the process smoother 3 And in this Remember what you and they Had it builds Like a ladder rising Without end. Each rung vitally important Leading to the next 4 Perhaps Someday After all of this building. Understanding will come and will be good. But for now, just accept Do, go on too The procession really is beautiful And for us has been long And will be longer 5 But in It you wilt know That in reaching for another You have built on And made the journey shorter Susie Miska — class ot ’7S BASEMENT MECH.
