MIX AND MINGLE With The Big Kids It’s me.” “No, he’s waving at me.” The younger generation had an interesting view of the older students. Juniors and Seniors were idols, friends, and yes, even gods to the elementary. While walking down the hall, most “big kids” were bom- barded by “Hi”s from the “little kids.” You know how it is; on your way to the gym you have sud- denly walked right into third grade P.E. An ensemble of all sizes, shapes, and colors pile on you as you search for your escape route. But relationships with older and younger people were a part of life and there was always a feeling of love. When you’re 3'2 to have the 6'1 Senior wave at you ... that’s what it was all about. £ While other Anchor members sing some all time favorites, Stacy Ray presents a birthday cake to the two birthday resi- dents at the Gadsden Nursing Home. V Opening All You Do Is STIR IT UP To Make It Blend It could have been just an- other year, but it wasn’t. It was special. Whether you had been at Munroe for twelve years or two, you knew what to expect when you walked in those double doors. There would be a “First Day” assembly to get into the swing of things, and you made it first on your list to make those new faces feel right at home. There were new subjects, books, even new teachers to get used to. Excite- ment seemed to fill the air, as everyone shared their summer romances, disasters, and new friendships. In the next few weeks eve- ryone joined together in the “We The People” celebration. Before you knew it everything new and old began to go through the blender.‘2 While on a field trip to Panacea, Bi- ology II students, Karen Hayes, Jenni er Smith, and Pat Boykin observe such sea life as horseshoe crab.

PUTTING IT TOGETHER Is The Only Way Growing up all your life at one school, or just coming in at seventh grade, you feel a cer- tain closeness and intimacy with the miniature crowd in a small school. New students be- came good friends in a short time, and when troubles arose in games, jobs, and homework, friends were just an arms length away. Any problems that came up were solved in the wink of an eye. Friends, as well as teach- ers, were always willing to help out any way they could. After all, pulling together has proved to move mountains, and at Munroe it was very easy to accomplish.‘a “When I say number, you say one!” High school fans show their spirit at the Homecoming game pep rally. That night, the Bobcats defeated Charlie Fowler 69-0. 6 � Jif Opening THE SECRET INGREDIENT Was there ever any free time? Taking advantage of free time ith the many school projects by going to a dance or just having and practices, how could there some fun at school were all a part be?

After hours of memorizing and hard work, the Munroe Chorale gives a solid performance for the lighting of the Courthouse Square. 10 Student Life - Song and Dance Combine To Make The Season Bright Christmas seems to come ear- lier each year. In November the familiar sounds of Christmas car- ols filled the air. After Thanks- giving, most found themselves shopping, wearing Christmas sweatshirts, humming “Jingle Bells”,and making our lists and checking them twice. The annual Christmas Vespers performed by the Munroe Cho- rale helped boost the spirit, while Dianne Spooner’s narration of the Christmas story reminded us of the reason for the season. On December 14, the older kids got a chance to watch their lit- tle brothers or sisters show their stuff as the elementary put on the play, Angels, Lambs, Ladybugs, and Fire- flies. The costumes were an outstanding part of the pro- gram. It was new! It was exciting! It was the Christmas Dance. On December 12 the Varsity Cheerleaders held a dance at the Sawano Club. Dancing in a “Winter Wonderland” seemed to make the season bright for cou- ples or just friends. While the styles of dresses varied, colors were mostly traditional red and green. Black and winter white ran a close second. By the time December 18 rolled around, we all seemed to be over- flowing with Christmas spirit. Everyone was exchanging gifts, smiles, “Merry Christmas” and writing “Ho Ho Homework” on their papers. Students and teach- ers agreed, however, that it was easier to be in the Christmas spir- it at home. The Elementary program, Angels, Lambs, Ladybugs, and Fireflies , complete with the 1st grade ladybugs” and 3rd grade lambs promotes excitement the week be- fore the holidays. While Lindy Beverett waits for Miss Allison to demonstrate how to attach her angel's head. Anna Thomas continues the 6th grade tradition of making angels, which her mom used to decorate the piano. Christmas 11 Just before calling it a day, Debbie Foley serves her last customer of the weekend at McDonalds in Tallahassee. A job doesn’t always have to be grueling work: Mary Katherine Gregory has fun af- ter school at Day Care as a “patient.” 12 Student Life - If You Want It — You Gotta Pay the Price It’s That Ugly Four Letter Word — Work If you want it you have to work for it. You want money and your parents shudder when you so much as whisper the word. What to do? Get a job! Whether it was chasing chil- dren, or service with a smile, many students had after school jobs. Of course, certain jobs were better than others. Some babysat, others had seasonal employment like mowing lawns. Katherine Hinson, Aundrea Downs and oth- ers worked at Day Care after school. Mark Brown and Gil Chason had Saturday hard- ware jobs. Was a little extra cash worth a Friday night of babysitting or getting up at ridiculous hours on Saturday mornings? Could you stand sacrificing the soaps for that after school job? When would you find time for friends, sports or homework? Well ... Those new Guess jeans and sweater were calling you. You had to have a new dress for the dance, and Mom wouldn’t hand over the credit card, plus gas money was at a crucial low. It was worth it when the pay- check was cashed. But there were other benefits of working. Maybe you met a lot of people, a great new guy or girl or maybe you gained experience in the “real world.” Since you were working and had the money for all the things you wanted, when were you sup- posed to go buy them? Well, we could make time for that. A va- cation maybe? A part-time job means big bucks for Clay Tullos, who spends his afternoons and Sat- urdays at Crouch’s doing a variety of jobs including inventory. Jamey Worrell uses a Saturday afternoon lull at the cash register to price items at Bradley’s IGA in Chattahoochee. Jobs FASHION 14 Student life Drake Flournoy and Mary lack Higdon have fun show- ing off the new colors for Guess jeans. Mary Katherine Gregory in her Liz Claiborne outfit and Laura Irwin in her jeans display a casual, hut fun look, both in the hit of the year — turtlenecks. Hard Rock Cafe shirts and sweat- shirts from everywhere, were still a popular item as dis- played by Mike Mock, Jason Layerd, Teri Armstead, and David Chi tty. Forenza sweat- ers rom The Limited, worn by Ina Munroe, Mark Brown, Karen Hayes, Heidi Pickels, and Rebecca Edwards, were a good beginning for fashion in the winter. Gucci watches and clothing, Guess on anything rom shirts to socks, and Keds in every color or design made the top of the sporty list. Little kids David Rogers, Fletcher Finn, and Jeremy Romeiko show their love or converse high tops in any shade; and big kid Angel Whiddon joins in. Brown leather accessories such as belts, flat shoes, short boots, and watches were the look of the year. It’s What You Make Of It! The year's newest mixture of colors — black and white — are worn by Katie Hook and Jeanie Ziegler. Andrew Hood, Melissa Alexander, Adam Burns, Jay Brooks, Bethany Bostick, and Lara Leigh Wil- liams show off the year’s newest look in acid washed jeans. Wendy Bannister, Lau- ra Alexander, Tracy Worrell, Sunshine Gauss, and Beth Thomas model Outback Red’s four button shirt. Liz Claiborne purses came in every shape and color and were filled with anything rom hairspray, money, gum, and keys to hairbrushes, makeup, and nail files. Old names! New looks! Fashion for the year brought us no new names, but old names with new ideas, new colors, and new ways to be worn. A new idea for jeans was acid washed which old favorites like, Lee, Levis, and others soon adopted. Guess took on new colors such as black, beige, and white. Out- back Red remained a leader and provided new looks like a four button shirt and a Forenza sweater in every im- aginable color. The look for accessorizing was brown leather belts, purses, and shoes worn with anything from jeans to skirts. Silk scarves and brown leath- er watches were added to the list. Gold and silver jewelry were both worn, but not heavily. Liz Claiborne led the way for “toting” around one’s possessions. The year went on to bring a new mixture of colors. Black and white stripes, polka dots, and checks were seen on eve- ryone, and the McKids clothes became an instant hit with the younger crowd. Casual and contemporary, but yet bold and bright cloth- ing is what made the year. Everyone had their own way of wearing each, and had fun mixing and matching.

Teenager’s Best Friend Cruisin’ Cats What’s on teenagers’ minds? Running a close second to “other eenagers” are CARS! The ultimate dream: Waking ip on the morning of your six- eenth birthday, and finding a :hampagne colored Porche larked in your driveway. Some were lucky enough to lave new cars. There were Grayson Munroe, in her Honda RX, Jennifer Smith and Cammie schroeder in their Honda deludes, Charlotte White in her Ford Festiva, Drake Flournoy in “The Porche”, Gil Chason in his Blazer, Johanna Gumanis in her Subaru, and Frank Ven- try in “The B.M.W.” Clearly each was in an enviable po- sition. Several had some sort of car to call his own, even if it wer- en’t the hottest item on the street. Stephen Gauss in “The Warp Drive”, Angel Whiddon, Amy Benedict, and Rachel Romeiko in their “Cruzers”, Kevin Godwin, Molly Wilson, Kevin Drake, and Susan Wood- bery each at least had wheels. There were some who still got stuck driving “the family car”. But whether you drove a 1988 Honda CRX, or a 1957 Chevy Bel — Air, a car continued to be ... A Teenagers’ Best Friend. After school, Bill David Strauss gets com- fortable as he waits for Heidi Pickels to take him home. Cars 17 Homecoming Excitements Young and 01 Celebrat The halls were crowded with “nerds”, “twins”, and people turned “backwards”. Spirit week gave the students a good reason to clown around, refuse to speak, and break some fashion rules. Kena Maxwell, Charlotte White, Grayson Munroe, and Laura Alex- ander all managed to get through the day as they waited for the long six periods to end. Varsity cheerleaders led the crowd at the pep-rally, with “We Are Un- stoppable.” The elementry grades en- joyed using the pom-poms. The cheering continued at the game against Charlie Fowler. During half-time, the crowd rushed to get hot chocolate and coffee and still make it back in time to hear Coach Hodgens announce our Homecoming Queen. As family and friends waited anxiously, Grayson Munroe was crowned. The class attendants, freshmen, Mary Bryant Hinson and Stevie Scruggs; sophomores, Michelle Irwin and Kevin Godwin; and jun- iors, Karen Hayes and Tanny San- tos congratulated Grayson Munroe. Later, at the Homecoming Dance, students celebrated the victory. They rocked to old and new songs from the Beatles to Tif- fany, where Coach Wilder and Lisa Lewis as chaperones danced along side the younger crowd. At 12:30, the students left for home and the excitement died down. The day was over, but the mem- ories would live on forever. The fish dinner sponsored by the Boos Club, is enjoyed by Andy Oliver and I mother, prior to the Homecoming game 18 Homecoming contestants and their fathers: Kena and Mr. Walter Maxwell, Grayson and Mr. jack Munroe, Laura and Mr. Go Alexander, and Charlotte and Mr. Massey White. Student Life Grayson Munroe dons the crown as Homecoming Queen while friends rush to congratulate her with hugs. As the Homecoming contestants are introduced, former queen, Laurie Woodham and sophomore Mike Bau dree get ready to pass on the crown. Attendants, Michelle Irwin, Karen Hayes, and Mary Bryant Hinson anxiously await the announcement. Ready to chow down a booster hamburger, Laura Irwin and Mary Hilliard McMillan hurry back to the bleachers before kickoff. The cheerleaders and Miss Holly show their appreciation to Molly Wilson for helping with their dance routine for the Homecoming pep-rally. Homecoming 19 Joe’s Place provides a wide selection of appetizing snacks for Jeremy Romieko's after school hunger pangs. Magazine winners Billy Slranee, Brian Edwards, Clark Odom, and Asnley May not only take in some of Quincy's finest food, but the trip also affords music videos to eat by. 20 Student Life ----- Students Will Do Anything For A Quick Fix Of JUNK! Junk Food 21 rus on the way home from school. The local restaurants couldn’t live with, and couldn’t live with- out students. The trash they left was atrocious, but kids spent big bucks. “What do you mean you forgot the coupons!” was the lone cry upon pulling into the Pizza Hut parking lot during exams. At home, watching the Guiding Light was another good place to inhale a bag of Doritos. The “something green and good for you” routine was always a fail- ure. Possibly if Mom changed it’s appearance, or called it some- thing interesting, or forbid kids to eat it ... Everyone would have a “good balanced diet.” Seniors and Freshmen mingle outside the restaurants on Tennessee Street after watching the F.S.U. production of Guys and Dolls. Mrs. Holly's fall carnival booth for the libe- rary hits the spot with Mary Bryant Hin- son, satisfying her need for junk. Milk Duds, Reeses, Milky Way, Doritos,... and Squash! Food was separated into “good food” and “junk food.” “Good food” was al- ways nutritious and never looked or tasted good. “Junk food” was good ole McDonald’s or a piece of chocolate. “Junk food” was al- ways preferred. It was a statistical fact that kids never liked to eat E- i things! Sweets and fast were simple, fast, bready, allowed mounds of katsup and could be repeated in an hour. Eating was always a favorite pasttime for students, no mat- ter what the price. Munching on a left over snack in class could cost students an hour on a Wednesday after school with a favorite teacher. Pride never got in the way if the problem was hunger pangs. “Can I bor- row two dollars?” was the cho- Miss Munroe, - Carnations -----------------■ and Luv-a-grams Make Valentine’s Day A Real Heartstopper Valentine’s Day by itself was enough excitement, but Miss Munroe added to it was too much! Spirit week kicked off a week filled with activities, from sweatshirt day to detective day. In the pep rally on Friday, the Varsity girls and Varsity boys had a “shoot out.” After an ex- citing competition, the boys won, and Laura Alexander smeared a pie in Coach Morris’ face. Each contestant represented a specific organization. The reigning 1987 Miss Munroe, Grace Ramos, crowned Kena Maxwell, who was escorted by Daniel Mitchell, the 1988 queen. Grades 7-12 topped off the eve- ning dancing to the latest hits blasted out by the Music Ma- chine. The evening ended early, but the spark of excitement still lingered. After all, Valentine’s Day was only two days away. 22 Student Life The Miss Munroe contestants: Represent- ing Paw Print, Laura Alexander: Journal- ism, Johanna Gumanis; Beta Club, Kena Maxwell: Key Club, Charlotte White: and Student Council, Clarice Munroe.

Between classes, Michele Irwin patiently waits on Tina While and Ina Munroe at the crowded locker scene. 24 Student Life Lockers A Special Combination Totally Trashed or Squeaky Clean What do schoolpapers, old notes, and squished lunches have in common? They can all be found in lockers. This was the second year that we were able to use “real live lockers”, and for some it was a “real live horror!” Jennifer Smith could be seen kneeling at her bottom locker or- ganizing her paraphernalia, while dodging falling Algebra and History books from above. On some mornings, the sounds of frantic students could be heard, when everyone’s locker Taking advantage of their senior privilege of staying in their homeroom during break, Ed Hinson and Billy Blilch wait until the halls are less crowded to get their books. After lunch, Daniel Mitchell gets an early start on getting his books, to avoid being tardy for fifth period. was locked, and no one knew their combination. Some thought that it was a waste of time to even lock their locks, “who would want to steal schoolbooks?” There were a wide variety of locker personalities. Kathy Dowling kept hers decorated with “the hunk of the week”, while others stuck their’s with “smiley faces.” Still others had football helmets,basketballs, or cheerleading megaphones taped to the fronts. There were some packrats who never cleaned their lock- ers. Drake Flournoy’s, Kevin Reynold’s, and Trey Fletcher’s each took on a life of its own. Papers could be seen slowly creeping out. There were a few exceptions who did keep their lockers look- ing very tidy. Ben Lindquist kept his spotless, while Rachel Romeiko organized hers accord- ing to classes. It didn’t matter what your lock- er looked like. What mattered was whether Mrs. Bassett found “stuff” on top of, or on the side of, the gray monster. Recovering items was always met with a lec- ture. One thing was certain ,it was yours for the year, and that was that!

But for others it meant that a dream would become a reality. Mrs. Bassett’s dream came true when she and her daughter went to Hawaii on their dream vaca- tion. She took hula lessons, picked “boxes’’ of pineapple, found a pearl in an oyster, went on a dinner cruise, and even tried some raw fish. What she enjoyed the most however was the danc- ing and the music. With so many races and cultures Hawaii “truly is a melting pot.” Coach Wilder dreamed of the adventures the Appala- chian Trail offered. He hiked one hundred and ten miles of the trail “because of the chal- lenge.” His original goal was two hundred miles but he says, I got lonely. It was like going back in time to the frontier.” While Coach Wilder enjoyed the adventures of the outdoors, several students enjoyed the adventures of traveling abroad in Europe with Mrs. Lasseter and Mrs. Woodward. They vis- ited Paris, Amsterdam, Swit- zerland, and Germany. While eating European food was a treat, Me Donald’s still re- mained the all time favorite. “We were so sick of bread and rolls after the trip; every day we ate bread!” The American girls made a big impression on the Frenchmen while taking a boat ride through France. But, no va- cation is complete without some- thing going wrong; like the time they were almost left on the train, and in an effort to get off quickly, threw their luggage out the win- dows, using the excuse that someone was hurt to stop the train. Each vacation fulfilled a fan- tasy as well as educating each person. By experiencing other lifestyles and learning things about themselves students and teachers make the special blend that makes Munroe so unique.

Summer 27 The newly formed high school elective, art. attracted many students such as Scott Melvin who Mrs. Lindstrom instructs in the drawing of “junk.” New students. Rocky Agbung. Ben Lindquist, and Stephen Lane are just a few of the many new high school students honored at the Stu- dent Council's Luncheon. 28 Student Life What’s New Classes, People,and Trends Always Grow Old and Comfortable “Who’s the new student?”, “Have you heard we're having a new Christmas Formal Dance?” The year brought new students, new trends in clothes, new tapes, and even new classes. New students are always ex- pected, and the Student Coun- cil had a luncheon to welcome many of the over forty new students. Giving the school a new look was an “over Christmas” proj- ect. The walls were repainted and the teacher’s lounge re- ceived carpeting. Mrs. Bassett moved into her new office, complete with a fancy waiting area, during early February. Other remodeling news in- cluded the announcement of air conditioning for the main building. Art became an added elec- tive class, taught by Mrs. Lind- strom. Over twenty students enrolled and several entered county and state wide contests. Anything from perspective drawing and “junk” sketches to printing their work gave each new appreciation for creativity. School was not the only area bombarded by an array of new and interesting ideas. Nerds ce- real could now be found as a part of one’s well balanced breakfast. 7-Up now included a cherry fla- vor, and was classified as “cool” and pink”, and Diet Sprite intro- duced a new look with a green and white can. New, old and comfortable. The Christmas Dance became the “first annual”, the new faces grew familiar, the paint lost its odor, and art became an accepted and appreciated hall display. Tiffany tapes, Lollery tickets, and “Colors” perfume by Benetton are just a few of the must-have” items on fashion- conscious students bulletin board.

Setting up this year was a little easier because of booths and games borrowed from Sun- land, Inc. of Marianna. Every- one had their fingers crossed and prayed that the rain would cease before nightfall. It looked hopeless, but after a while it did stop. It was a wonderful evening and everyone especially en- joyed a new attraction — the Moon Walk which was provid- ed by the Kindergarten classes. They were the leading money- makers for the evening. The Booster Club’s annual pilau and hamburger suppers provided par- ents an option to cooking. The M M Guess sponsored by the Beta Club was won by Cody Vanlandingham who guessed 1988. At the Cake Walk Juniors played M.C. on the microphone. There wasn’t a talent show this year, but the new attractions seemed to fill the void. The kindergarten's addition of a Moon- walk to the Fall Carnival's attractions ap- pealed to many students and was one of the largest money makers of the evening.

When You Look The Wrong Way Whether its breaking your pen- cil during a big test or totaling four mother’s car, it happens, iveryone has experienced some tvpe of mishap. Accidents were placed on earth to build character through pain, suffering, and hu- miliation. They come in every size, from Mrs. McKeown’s broken little toe, to Angel Whiddon’s smashed car. Athletic injuries topped the chart of causes, with Katie Pointevint, who as a result of her astounding gymnastics, had ankle and knee injuries, and David Gregg, who broke his arm in a confrontation on the football field. The most dangerous type of accident usually involved au- tomobiles. Mary Katherine Gregory’s was in Tallahassee. This was not her fault since a reckless driver pulled out, and she had no time to avoid the col- lision. Fortunately, everyone was wearing a seatbelt and. no one was injured. Another victim of reckless driving was Bill Higdon. As Bill was leaving an intersection, an- other car ran the red light and smashed into the front left side of his Mustang. The fifth grade’s trip to Tifton ended in the emergency room for some when a driver coming to- ward the row of returning Agrirama “farmers” hydroplaned into its lane as they traveled South. No matter what you are doing, or where you are, accidents hap- pened when you least expected them.

Another priveledge was at as- semblies when everyone re- mained standing until the seniors were ready to be seated. Other priveledges included go- ing to the parking lot and getting out of school two weeks ear- lier. With all of these priveledges came many re- sponsibilities. It was important to set an example for younger students. There was also the poetry project and economic reports. All in all, the priveledges definitely out- weighed the responsibilities. Billy Blitch and Tom Bauldree lake ad- vantage of their free time during lunch to check out Mrs. Lasseter's selection of cat- alogs. The Senior Class awaits the arrival of the second half so that they can all be seated in unison for the assembly program on patriotism. Drake Flournoy, Daniel Mitchell, Mark Branson, and Frank Ventry take advantage of their priveledge to eat lunch inside on cold days.

Seniors ‘it' 41 A lack of sitting in Mrs. Blilch’s con- dominium left some to gather in the hall- way to talk and cut-up. Cory Hill leases Charlotte White during a Senior get-together on the last night at the Pinnacle Inn. Wild Times and Wipeouts The senior trip to Beech Mountain, N.C. could have been mistaken for a tour of all the Hardee’s restaurants in the Southeast. Upon arrival Seni- ors made snowballs. Putting their snowballs to use Grayson Munroe, Laura Alexander, Melissa Alexander, Johanna Gumanis, Katie Hook and Charlotte White cooled off hot- tub bathers with a sudden sur- prise. Their surprise came when they were “arrested” by a Pin- nacle Inn security guard because of six complaints within 15 min- utes. On the slopes things moved even faster, too fast for some like Dianne Spooner, Kathy Dowling, and Mrs. Allison. Coming down the intermediate slope teaches Jamey Worrell more about getting up (hen skiing down. 42 ® Classes To slow down you assumed the fledgling position of pigeoned feet, knocked knees, outspread arms, complete with an open mouth and screech. The stopping manuever looked more like a landing albatross. You simply went limp from the knees down and prayed you didn’t hit any- thing. The more talented skiers behind you would pick up all your missing parts for you. However once you developed your own method, skiing was a blast! After a cold day on the slopes the hot tubs, steam rooms, and pool sounded great, even for Kena Maxwell who was very unwillingly thrown in the pool by Cory Hill, Mark Brown, and David Gregg with all her clothes on! When Saturday rolled around seniors and chaperones especially were ready to call it quits and head back home. By the end of the 12 hour bus ride students were ex- claiming they never thought they would be so happy to see Quincy again!

Making it to Friday without acquiring any re- strictions for the weekend was the goal. Weeknights for Melissa Alexander, Tom Bauldree and Ed Hinson were spent at basketball, softball, baseball, or football games but were limited by laborous homework. When Friday finally rolled around it called for a celebration. Taking advantage of parents leeway and free from the pressures of school, seniors were able to kick back and relax with friends at Chandler’s and other hot-spots around town. Talla- hassee offered more diversity with its array of movie theaters, bowling alleys, malls, “Teen Nights” and concerts to which Molly Wilson, Jamey Worrell, Debbie Foley, and Sharon Sum- merford were attracted.

Some juniors decided to take action and found the true meaning of the word. A few of them decided to join the Paw Print or Journalism staff. They knew very little about what lay ahead. Deadlines! For the Paw Print staff a deadline meant waiting in line for a computer, or running around getting last minute birthdays and scores. Journalism definitely taught responsibilty to those who took it. Although meeting deadlines was harder for some than others, after a lot of work and little sleep deadlines were met. Those who were not involved in either organization tackled after school jobs. These jobs included chasing kids, checking the soil, or billing customers. The juniors learned responsibilty in many different ways. Just how well they learned it could not be determined yet. Their new found responsibilty would be tested with many important decisions next year. But why worry now? After all, they have the summer. Gil Chason 9-6 Amy Curry 8-21 Aundrea Downs 11-18 Kevin Drake 1-9 Trey Fletcher 3-7 Mary Katherine Gregory 4-26 Paper, Pileau, and Parents Make Prom A Reality Boom! Another door slammed in your face. Guess they don’t want any wrapping paper. Huh? Selling wrapping paper was just the beginning of money- making projects. Everyone seemed to keep in the back of their mind that April 23 would make it all worthwhile. Was it really worth all the slammed doors and rude refusals? Cleaning chickens proved to be an interesting experience for Cammie Schroeder and Julia Jones. The suggestion was made by a wise mother that they might want to “push up their sleeves a little”. However, a few of them never missed out on a perfect opportunity to have a little fun. While others mixed the cabbage with mayonnaise and pickles, Jennifer Smith and Gil Chason found it looked good in her hair and all over his face. Maybe their parents did have enough wrapping to last until Christmas 1999 and enough frozen pileau to get through a famine, but the parents came through with their support and help once again. With all the money, support, and help the prom couldn’t miss, or could it? Either way time would tell.

Juniors V 49 Indecisive But Ready to Face The Future “If anyone is dating in our class it won’t last long!” is how Emily Woodham described the dating situation in her class. The sophomores had a knack for dating this one or that one. “Who is it this week?” was a popular question. Going against the “sophomore odds” is what Christi Adams, Kevin Godwin, Michele Irwin, and Shanna Smith attempted to acheive. Ready to face the road is what many had on their mind; and when the day came to finally get the old license, mom’s car was never seen again. Sophomores could be seen driving everywhere. Up a road and down a road three or four times. To get ready for the “special” day Mike Bauldree, Ina Munroe, Malissa Sasser, Randy Skipper, Shanna Smith, and Bryan Ramos took driver’s education over the summer at Shanks. Florida State football games were a favorite for most of the sophomores. Every Saturday many of them could be seen cheering for the Seminoles. With all the excitement and fun, sophomores still took time out of their busy schedule to hit the books and prepare for the future. A Valentine’s Day parly provides one more diversion in an already busy day of sportsmates, opening Valentines, and carnations. Katherine Hinson breaks from Geometry to sign a yearbook.

Playing rough, getting dirty, and learning technique gave Jody Beane, David Boyd, Shaun Foley, and Wade Jackson an exciting year on the football field. Playing golf, softball,or Fun and Volunteerism Combination basketball was also on the sophomore interest list. Keeping the grades to play, inspired some to achieve better and landed them in the Beta Club. No matter what the sport, a Sophomore was sure to be playing. They were well represented in extracurricular activities and proved that the sophomores were a well rounded class.

I’ll pay you back! I promise.” Sure ... in a few weeks maybe. Monev wasn’t the only dilema for the freshmen. Science was more than just rock formations and evaporations. Mrs. Van’s pop tests were a true incentive, because with each pop test came the desire to work harder. Some girls found it hard to stay within their age group and loolced upward for Doyfriends.

Andrea Parramore broke her leg while water skiing in October, and Scharla Frazier had a “run in” with a four wheeler. She claimed she didn't feel it due to being “numb from the experience.” With only a few mishaps, constant claims of studying late, every sort of after school practice and expanded social lives, freshmen balanced the various aspects of a complicated year with humor and maturity.

Relaxing On the Weekends or After School Evens Things Out Everyone knows what they did during school, but not many people know what they did after school, and on weekends. Whether basketball or cheerleading, most of the girls stayed after school for practice, Those who were free to just go home caught up on soaps, homework, or satisfied their after school appetites. Most got rides home from an older brother or sister, but some had to ride the bus. The common activity though, was going home, having a snack, and then turning on the T.V. Only after all the best shows had been seen could homework be completed. The time spent going to school in the morning was a good time to finish any extra assignments. The weekends were spent doing what every normal teen- ager does. Hanging out! Whether at home or with friends, it was the best way to relax after a hectic week at school. All in all, resting after a hard day’s work came in different ways. Some chose to continue the work by completing homework and playing afterwards, while others decided to play first and work later. Anyway they did it, they got the job done and still had time to unwind.

This year they welcomed Rocky Agbunag, Chip Baily, Chris Baily, Michelle Gordy, Andy Huggins, Beth Thomas, Bill David Strauss, and returning Brian Edwards. All welcomed the new faces, and were glad to have Brian back. Many of them played little league football, and Jason Mahaffey was brave enough to play Varsity football for the Bobcats! Report card time brought many moans and groans, and was usually dreaded. One adventure that was looked forward to was the long awaited trip to Washington D.C. They held a hoagie and black bean supper to help raise money for the excursion. As the year came to an end, students realized that the days of “goofing off” were over, because for the next four years, the classes would really count!

Getting into trouble was no problem for quite a few of them. In Coach Hodgen's homeroom Brian Gregory had to sit in the corner by himself, due to excessive chattering. In Mrs. Gregory’s homeroom Ricky Drake had to sit on the porch. As a whole, the class had play time during Science when Mrs. Van wasn’t looking. Growing Up? The seventh grade still took time out to be serious and devote themselves to school and other activities. Devoting some time to Junior Varsity basketball is what Mandy Bedenbaugh, Becky Chester, and Carrie Hubbard had in mind. Others enjoyed City League baseball, softball, and Little League football. Being forced to grow up and enter the world of junior high didn’t stop the seventh grade from having fun. Loaded with books and other paraph analia. Tricia T.and Kim M. review Dizzy with Disney .

Mrs. McKeowen could be heard saying to the Juniors during homeroom. Only warnings were hand- ed out to first offenders, with the threat of an hour of detention for the second. Once again the rule of no food in the halls still stood. Students could be seen hiding drinks in their jackets, stuffing sandwiches back into lunch sacks and ducking into the ever pop- ular Journalism room for a quick es- cape from Mrs. Woodward and her stick. But Mrs. Gregory it's not gum, it's just one little Skittle! Mrs. Gregory look over Mrs. Ford's reputation of giv- ing out the most detentions. They were also given for eating in class, which was an almost daily oc- curance in the Juniors’ third period Chemistry class. School wasn’t the only place to receive some type of restriction. Mom or Dad could dish out their own brand at home. Bad grades, neglecting chores, staying on the phone too long, and coming home late on Friday or Sat- urday night could result in any- thing from a week without the phone, six months of no going out, or grounded until further notice! Rules seemed to put a damper on the teenage lifestyle. They had to learn to either straighten up and fly right or don’t let ’em catch you. Live Entertainment Tallahassee has been treated with fine entertainment. There’s been something for everyone, from country to rock. Expose got some “Exposure” when the Miami trio appeared with Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam at the Civic Center. The fact that the three ladies of F .- pose were from Miami ,nd FSU was playing Miami the next day didn’t seem to bother anyone. It was an evening of music, dancing and even a little advice from Lisa. Kenny Rogers and Ronnie Milsap filled the Civic Cent- er. The performance made it worth while, even if Kenny Rogers did forget the words to a song. The Civic Center also scheduled the Statler Broth- ers, YES and Aerosmith to keep everyone dancing the aisles. The Musical Moon re- turned with a new name. The Moon brought Sawyer Brown and others to Talla- hassee. Concert was a hot word that spread fast. Everyone was always ready to race for tickets to the latest show, whatever it was. AIDS You can’t get AIDS (Acquired Immune De- ficiency Syndrome) from casual contact. But you can get it, and the threat is frighten- ing. According to an ar- ticle in Seventeen , more than 50,000 cases have been diagnosed, 28,000 people have died, and experts be- lieve that as many as 1.5 million people have the virus. Misinformation has led to panic, which has led to advertisements about how you can get the disease and how to protect yourself. But some find the advertise- ments offensive. Is it a question of mo- rality or education? Some say people need higher standards; oth- ers say honest answers are required. In re- sponse to the issue, Mrs. Johnnie Melvin, a nurse from Florida State Hos- pital, was invited to speak to the high school. She explicitly and informatively dis- cussed AIDS and how it can be transmitted. One way or the other, society must face up to the AIDS crisis. It’s something we can not afford to ignore.

People don’t remember us by name. They remember us as a game. Trying to figure which one’s which, guessing and guessing is the only hitch. “Waif, don’t tell me” is what they say. But we know they will get it wrong anyway. So we go ahead and tell them our name, so they won’t be a failure at the game. There are two others. Cal and Jay. But they don’t look alike anyway. Sarah and Macall are identical, too. And they look as much alike as we do. I don’t see why people make such a fuss. The only thing different is there are two of us. Abby, Amy, I answer to both names. Because people think we are the same. Mini Mag 63 Battle of the Bulge Guys Fight it Too! “Man, I need to get rid of this gut!” “Yeah? Me and you both” This conversa- tion could be heard on al- most any day between any number of guys walking around campus. Some people had no prob- lem with the situation while others had to work to keep that old friend away. There were various paths to follow to attain the goal. Some people liked to run to stay fit, but most people saw no rea- son to run unless they were being chased or were chasing something. A different approach to solving the problem was weight lifting. People put forth the effort, and watched their middle swell reduce. They could see their muscle tone be- come more defined. A second form of weight lifting would usu- ally take place in the home about 6:00. Every- body would sit down and start lifting some sort of good tasting weight from the table, to the mouth. As this would soon take its toll, many embarked on a diet. With the ever- present tempters around, it seemed that one need- ed every bit of will power to stay away from the fridge. After you get rid of a few pounds and get back into last year’s jeans you invariably decide to hit the long awaited “seefood” diet; if you see food, eat it.

She says, Writing comes naturally to me.” She is on the honor roll at school. Her favorite class is Spanish, and she is now in her fifth year. She says she has most of her classes in the morn- ing, then at noon she does “One day I would like to record al- bums in a foreign language.” her homework and later works at the studio. Also, in the future she would like to win one or two Grammys and record a “hit” duet with her fa- vorite star, Billy Joel. TOTALLY AWESOME Tubular, Bogus, Great, Narly and Dude, all words widely used in the unique under eighteen group. Teenagers use words without any one particular meaning. “Sure”, could mean “that’s what I’d expect from a ‘geezer’ like you,” “you don’t know what you are talking about,” and last but not least, Teens have “escape” words and great punctua- tion. “Yeah” can mean “great”, but the shortened version of “yeah” doesn’t mean “great” at all. Al- though the way teens think they all mean, “you’ve ru- ined my life!” So for the normal teen it would be “GREAT” (SLAM), “SURE” (STOMP), and “YEAH” (ABRUPTLY TURNING ■? “you’ve ruined my life”. And of course, we can’t ignore their own style of emphasis by which the meaning of the word is indicated. Tone and pitch as well as the duration of their inflection carries its own special meaning.

Tag day proved profitable for Katie Poitevint, who was awarded candy by Miss Holly. Hard work and the ability to sell magazines paid off for the sixth grade, who sold the most. An air conditioning system was promised if enough magazines were sold and with the help of Adam Thompson, Katie Poitevint, and Mary Hilliard McMillian, the top salespeople, this promise was upheld. A busy and exciting summer is what got tnem ready to face the new vear. Amanda Helms visited Mt. Vernon, and Katie Poitevint went to space camp for weightless training. Participating in everything, and giving their “all” is what the sixth graders had planned for the year. Everyone participated in a scary story contest sponsored by the Tallahassee Democrat. Adam Thompson, Trent Carter, Ashley May, Clark Odom, and Steve Fruzan gave their all in little league football; and Ranie Suber, Mary Hilliard McMillian, Kim Presnell, Amanda Helms, Charity Stewart, Carolyn Sapp, Lindy Beverett, and Laura Linch did their part in playing prep league basketball.

But Having Fun The Right Way The fifth grade takes time out of their usual schedule to do some coloring. “Child’s play!”, said Matt Bell, is what Trick or Treating is. Many of the fifth graders agreed they were getting too old for Halloween, but just the right age to have a “real” party. A year without a few injuries is just no fun. Over the summer Grant Geyer got stung by a jellyfish and during the year Cheyenne Lolley broke his finger. Injured or not the fifth grade went ahead in full force to tackle the Joey Bauldree and Miss Bunny discuss hoiv to put a disk in the disk drive; while Patrick Fletcher.

The year went on to have the fifth grade faced with another play — the Christmas play. Although the fifth grade got “too old” for some things, they had fun learning new things and being on the top of every Laura Irwin, Claire Rogers, and Abrey realm of school.

Despite this rude awakening, new students Dennis Gordy, Alyssa Thomas, Katie Suber, Ronnie Miller, and Stephanie Miller were excited to be in a new school and they “liked it a lot.” The whole class showed their school spirit, during the magazine sales, by raising $2,024 in tne first week! They came in second overall with over $4,000 to put toward air-conditioning the “big school”. In addition to supporting the school’s efforts, they also showed their pride in America on the Bicentennial of the Constitution, by pledging allegiance with the rest of the nation. Pride in their school, and money raising efforts paid off as their class trip to St. Augustine got under way. The class raised money by selling boiled peanuts and lemonade. Other money raising efforts provided services for the public, with such efforts as collecting food, clothes, and money for a needy family at Christmas. From first to last, the days had passed quickly due to the accelerated school workload and money-making efforts. Polly Bohannon and other fourth graders search for ossils on a class field trip.

They worked hard on magazine sales but didn’t share the candy bars with Miss Debbie. The top salesman was Ralph McCaskill, who sold 35 magazines. New students included Daisy Scott, Ralph Nellas, Mehnaz Hyder, Phillip Brown, and William Huggins. They had many tests throughout the year, which always seemed to come on Fridays! During Halloween, things such as brides,ninjas, horesmen, and bumblebees could be seen coming out of the third grade room. Music, computer, Bible, P.E., and lunch seemed to be high on the fun list for the majority of the class. More enjoyable activities included the Fall Carnival. They liked the cotton candy, moon walk, and received a hamburger supper for bringing the most to Country Store. As the pee wee cheerleaders Heather Hamilton, Jennifer Shelfer, Emily May and Sarah Johnson, cheered loudly, the year ended with a “Leap!” Trying to ignore Ian White's antics, Jen- nifer Shel er volunteers to answer Miss Debbie’s question about Scotland.

As August 24 rolled around, it was time to settle into a routine, and “buckle down”. Learning to “borrow”, “carry”, multiply, and write in cursive, were only a couple of the new things they learned. The computers provided a new dimension in learning, while Mrs. Lindstrom’s Art room gave them a chance to express their hidden creativity. Dictation was an almost daily occurrence, that they had mixed feelings about throughout the year. During Yearbook Week, Rebecca Edwards was tickled to see Stephen Gauss “playing a lady” in the play. Complaints of too much homework could be heard from Darla Weber since she had to have her’s finished, so she could watch Alf on Mondays. As the year concluded, they couldn’t wait for summer to arrive, so they could once again sleep until they were ready to get up!

Lawson Miller Maxwell got a football button with Chris Smith on it, and Allison VanLandingham had Cory Hill on hers. These were compliments of Miss Holly. Adam Benedict liked Lee Anne Thompson “sometimes”, when not hanging around with his buddies Ben VanLandingham, who didn’t like girls, and Keaton Goreau, who couldn’t even remember his girlfriend’s name. During Spirit Week, they were things from Pee Wee Herman, to “Bee Bops” on Fifties Day. All were in agreement that first grade was different from K- 5. “This is Big School now”, and they’ve got one down and eleven to go.

That’s what one might have thought while traveling through the K-5 room. Everyone had their own stained glass fish, which hung in one of the windows, while paper mache whales hung overhead, as to inspect the on going Open Court work. A gift of three turtles, one of which accidentally disappeared, gave each student the experience of taking care of a pet. They wrapped up their studies of the ocean with a feast of shell pasta, and moved on to dinosaurs. A collection of dried chicken bones was used to recreate a dinosaur skeleton. Field trips expanded the farm experience, some of which included Mr. Forest Davis’ grape orchard and Jimbo Douglas’ Dairy. With K-5 coming to an end, the “Big School” was right around the corner.

The two classes learned nursery rhymes, made modeling clay, and literally ate their letters, when they made pretzel B’s. For some, this was the year of “the first bus ride”. Most thought it was exciting. They took field trips to the fire station, where they learned to “stop, drop, and roll”, the pumpkin patch, and the dairy farm. For Halloween, dressing up in the latest costumes filled many minds. Showing off for the “Big School” was an exciting debut. During the Christmas season, they enjoyed decorating the tree and the walls! Even with John Robert Chandler giving himself his type of mohawk, (on the day before school pictures), they managed to make it through the year.

A performance in the puppet stage, do- nated by Stewart T.V. and Appliances, takes on a life of its own with colorful stripes replacing the Frigidaire logo. 82 Classes Dedication Makes For Wonderful Surprises First it was a classroom, then a science building and library, next came the beloved air- conditioning, and finally a new kindergarten building. All of these could be credited to Mr. John Allen Blitch, better known as “Uncle Johnny”. When Miss Marguerite’s closed, three year olds “didn’t have a place to go.” The need was there, but the money wasn’t. So, “Uncle Johnny” sur- prised the Board with enough money to start work on the Developement Center. Where did the money come from? How did he do it? “I just ask my friends,” he said. There were many contributors, as well as fund-raisers. The auctions and magazine sales added to the thou- sands of dollars that were col- lected to finance the project. “Uncle Johnny” not only raised money for the school; he was al- ways a willing participant in school activities. He trekked to St. Augustine with the fourth grade, Washington D.C. with the eighth, and the Jacksonville Zoo with the kindergarten’s 5 yr. olds. When asked why he did it, he said, “I do it for the school and for the kids.” He added, “It makes it worthwhile to walk down the hall and have the kids say, ‘Hey Uncle Johnny’.” He has been featured in the Tallahassee Democrat and other publications for all of his work with the Quincy Music Theatre on the Leaf at Centenary Meth- odist Church, and at Munroe. Recognition and appreciation, for his ideas and boundless energy could never be fully expressed. He affected the lives of countless Gadsden Countians, and won the hearts of each group he touched. Anytime someone needed, or wanted something, they knew who to call. They knew that John- ny Blitch would get the job done. Another of his countless fundraisers; for this one Mr. Biitch must raise $400 to bail out of the March of Dimes jail.

Joey Spooner Some people think that Eas- ter is just the Easter Bunny. But is really Jesus dying on the cross and rising from the dead. I like Easter because Jesus showed he loved us by dying on the cross. Jesus could have saved himself, but instead he decided to suffer on the cross. Jesus also showed that he wanted to suffer to save our sins. Spring Spring has sprung; So has fun, it has yet begun, fun for everyone, Spring has sprung!

Then he lost control of the truck and hit us on the left side. We spun around and went in a ditch. We would have hit a tree if we hadn’t gotten stuck in the mud. Everybody was scared. Laura, Ken, Marc V„ Joey, Claire, and Maria were in the back. I was in the front. Six cars were involved in the wreck. The red truck hit the car we were in. The other cars hit each other trying not hit us. Patrick was asleep in the back of a Jimmmy, and a car hit the back of it, and the windows caved in. He came out without a scratch. Marci sprang her neck, and Adam has wiplash, but other than that everyone was fine.

Someone tapped me on my shoulder, And I turned around. There stood the most wonderful sight I had ever seen. The Master stood there. His hair all a gleam. I fell at his feet and wept. He said, “Rise, and I will take you home.” So, I rose and he took me home. Now, I’ll live in happiness forever more. Melinda Michael Some people think of the Constitution as an old piece of paper. We think of it as America all in itself. When we read the Constitution it gives us a feeling of security — security that no one can ever take away our rights as American citizens. The Sixth Grade Wine Coolers Lead Kids To Drink Wine coolers are drugs, and most kids don’t rec- ognize that fact. You can’t taste the alcholol even though it’s there. The first time you drink a wine cooler you may not know it’s there because you taste the fruit flavor and sugar. Everyone tells you they are O.K. but they’re more potent than beer. The packages encourage minors to buy them because they’re ad- vertized like soft drinks. Kids, don’t give your support; wine coolers are drugs.

Sports 91 Cats Scratch Out A 7-2 Season (( W ith the way the schedule ivas. I had hoped we could break even. Anything above that was a bonus.” — Coach Lou Etison All County Of- fense: Mark Brown, Jeffrey Rushing, Chris Smith, Lamar Taylor The Bobcats had a tough schedule, as they joined in the district race. With thir- teen returning Seniors, there was experience on the team, which helped make up for the loss of several starters from the previous team. Despite the large number of Seniors, the team had lit- tle depth because there were only ten underclass- men. The lack of people made it difficult to scrim- mage at practice. Coach Lou steadily intensified the practices to strengthen the players who played both of- fense and defense. The Cats opened up with a win against Greensboro to get a tough season off to a good start. Most of the op- ponents proved to be little trouble against Coach Lou’s strategy, especially Charlie Fowler, Munroe’s Home- coming opponent, who bit the dust at 69-0. The two dissappoint- ments of the season were the losses against Chatta- hoochee and Wewa. These two games kept the Cats from winning the district ti- tle. Front How: Wade Jackson, Ed Hinson, John Barrow, Brad McCown, and David Boyd. Middle Row: Bill Higdon, Frank Ventry, Shaun Foley, David Gregg, Billy Biitch, Jeff Bedenbaugh, Jason Layerd, Lamar Taylor, Gil Chason.and Drake Flournoy; Back How: Jeffrey Rushing, Asst.

Ste- phen Gauss The Chattahoochee game was the only loss at home. Running back, Cory Hill, was out with a knee injury. David Gregg was in the backfield for Cory when he broke his arm. This put the backfield in serious trouble, and the Cats suffered their first defeat. The team still had one chance to win the district. But they had to beat Wewahitchka to do it. The game was up and down, marked by many fumbles which hindered the Munroe scoring drives. The Cats were down 21-20 with 3:14 left on the clock. The of- fense drove the ball to with- in field goal range after tak- ing over at their own 3 yard line. With time left for only one play, the Cats tried for a field goal. The kick was tipped and sent the Cats home, out of the district race. The season closed with a big win at home against Car- rabelle. This final game brought the record to 7-2, and Coach Lou’s R.F.M. ca- reer record to 16-3. The race for the title was hard fought, and though it elluded the Cats, the two years with Coach Lou had given each player something he would always carry with him. It had been instilled.

Un- der the direction of new head coach, Bob Wilder, the girls proved they could cut it by coming out with a win- ning season. Much of their success was due to the return of four starters, Marjorie Gregory, Samantha Johnson, Allison Drake, and Wendi McDaniel. Staying after school , the girls had tougher practices which consisted of running “the hill,” working on pass- ing, dribbling, and shooting. Harder practices resulted in winning their first three out of four games. The foe of the year proved to be a quicker Howard Middle School team. Their biggest win of the year was against Grand Ridge, when Marjorie scored twenty points. The team celebrated a winning season with a ham- burger cookout at Glen Ju- lia.

At Bethlehem, the Cats knew they were in trouble when they walked in the gym and to their amazement saw “NO TOBACCO IN GYM” signs and fell victims to bad officiating in an over-time loss.

They then rolled off seven straight victories before being denied 20 wins on the season by Poplar Springs. The leading scorer on the team was Morris Suber who hit 382 points, Stevie Scruggs led in steals, and Randy Skip- per dished out assists, while Jason Shelfer owned the boards.

With help from students and their families, fund raisers cre- ated by the Board, continued to raise money for much needed fa- cilities. More computers and soft- ware were always welcome, as well as equipment for the athletic department. There were several other changes, the facilities were im- proved when Mrs. Bassett re- ceived a new office and Coach Wilder finally got an office with a door. The privacy was welcomed by both, and stu- dents could be seen inspecting the changes. Bill Higdon’s comment said it all, “The more trouble you’re in, the more comfortable the chairs.” An- other change came in the form of a name change. Coach Wil- der finally tied the knot with Lisa Lewis. The most important addition was announced during the as- sembly. Air conditioning was finally going to replace the fans. On the hottest days, when gnats plagued everyone, air con- ditioning would come in handy. The students cheered with “Uncle Johnny’s” news. With students and Board mem- bers, like Mrs. Judy Gregory, Mr. Jack Harnett, and Mr. Adrian Fletcher, working together, tasks were completed in no time. With a little bit of give and take from students, Board members and the administration made and perfect- ed rules. The school was made more comfortable for all, and once again, the Board was cred- ited with the welcome changes.

Board 135 From Stick Figures to Charcoal Sketches Takes More Than A Flick Of The Wrist Looking at the drawings of Mrs. Lindstrom’s second period art class at the beginning of the year, you would easily have mistaken them for second and third grade work. However, most people stop drawing pictures at that age so their maturity level, as far as drawing is concerned, stops at that level also. At the end of the year, the difference between the class’s first drawings of “popsicle houses, lollipop trees, and stick figures” and their last work, was remarkable. Mrs. Lindstrom ex- plains her technique, “I hang it Crealing the folds and creases of model Malissa Sasser’s clolhing, or Jim Boyd and Jeffrey Rushing, requires (he assistance of Mrs. Lindstrom. In the final stages of making a print, Scott Melvin and Kevin Drake press ink on to their hand carved prints to form a re- versed image on paper. (their first drawing) up with their final work, so they can see their progress. They don’t realize how much they’ve im- proved over the year they just think they’re battling me!” Mrs. Lindstrom has estab- lished six art progams in the different schools in which she has been. She met with some resistence from time to time, from people who seem to think that art class is only for those with exceptional talent. “What they don’t understand is that everyone can eventually draw.” Aside from offering a new course, Art also opened up new career prospects to students, gained recognition for the school by way of exhibits at fairs and local businesses, and added a cer- tain sophistication to the hall. Mrs. Lindstrom’s class was based on the Chinese proverb: I hear 1 forget, I see I remember, I do I understand. The class agreed with Kevin Reynolds when he summed up their reactions by saying “I honestly think I have been inspired. Seriously!” 136 Academics Using an improvised easel, Patrick Fletch- er works in oils on his afterschool art pro- gram project. Concentrating on proportion, Kevin Godwin and Kathy Dowling begin working with meas- urements to recreate pencil sketches. Art 137 School’s not everyone’s favor- ite way to pass time, but a good education is essential. There are several necessary components of a good education, and students acquired most of them. Teachers had to go to school, too. They even went over the summer. Several teachers took courses at Disney World. Mrs. McKeown and Mrs. Munroe took classes in “marketing your school” and additional subjects. Along with gaining knowledge came tours of Disney World that added excitement to their trips. As part of an Enrichment program offered by parents every other Friday, Adrian Wimberly and Amanda Helms, along with other able elementary students, work with Mrs. DiSalvo to create color combinations for buildings on the Square of Downtown Quincy, as part of the Mainslreel project. An added dimension to Spanish II is en- riching eiemenlary students; Christi Ad- ams uses a felt-board to quiz the second graders on the Spanish word for lips, los labios. Components Come Together The Result: Well-Prepared Students Many students opted for up- per-level classes. Lamar Tay- lor, Michelle Johnson, and oth- ers in tackling both Advanced English and Pre-Calculus; these along with Spanish and supplementary courses made students well prepared for continuing their education. Outside learning at FSU’s Sat- urday Morning Physics added to the experience of several Chemistry and Physics stu- dents. Standardized tests were an important preparation. Stu- dents were required to take ei- ther the SAT or the ACT and en- couraged to take both. The NEDT and ASVAB were also offered. These tests often led to scholar- ships and college entrance. As a result of his score of over 1300 on the SAT, Stephen Gauss was se- lected as a National Merit Schol- ar. The classes, teachers, and the tests were good equipment to build an education, and they of- ten led to a good finished prod- uct, the student. 138 Academics On the final evening of the seminar, Communicating Disney Style” at the Magic Kingdom, Mrs. Williams receives her diploma and a congratulatory hug.

Excellence in Education 139 From computers and calculators to protractors and rulers, they came in every shape and color. What were they? Tools of the trade. Little things in life that made the school day easier. Why type something in a com- puter if you don’t have a printer to print it out? The computers were an added help for high school stu- dents typing term papers, reports, or long critiques. Moving a para- graph or changing a word, was as easy as 1,2,3! Not only were the computers a hit for the older crowd, but the elementary students got a dose of The first grade makes continuous use of the television in the Little Red School House which works as a VCR and computer to help with outlaws and improve enrichments. Making use of the school computers and the Apple Writer Program, Mary Katherine Greg- ory and Amy Curry put in some extra time to complete a Paw Print deadline. Tools of the Trade Needed to Aid Students of All Ages fun with them too. They could play games such as “Parachute” or “Baseball”, and even learn parts of speech and arithmetic abilities with “Beat The Clock.” An added help for advanced math was a calculator. Why use your head or paper to find an answer that could be found by simply pushing a few buttons? Only one slight problem still re- mained. Some who used calcu- lators found that the ones that looked more professional, were actually harder to use. Who wanted to take a crash course on learning how to use something that was supposed to be beneficial? Overhead projectors were also used by many teachers. They elim- inated the messy side effects of chalk and cleaning erasers. The on- ly problem with using water based pens to write on them with, was experiencing the joy of “blue hands”. Many devices were used around the campus to make life at school more bearable. They made math quicker, letters ledgible, outlaws memorable, and movies education- al, but could never take the place of a quick witted teacher with a new assignment. 140 Academics Stephen Gauss and Coach Wilder precar- iously perch on the extention ladder, in an effort to install a new rope for the flag pole.

Mrs. Lasseter congratulates Amanda Helms following her correct spelling of the final word to win the School Spelling Bee. 142 Academics The Difference Between Win, Lose, or Draw Is High Performance Speaking, writing, and rehearsing led to several opportunities to take a bow. Talents, sometimes unknown, were displayed through the often time dreaded assignments. Rocky Agbunag was selected as the High School representative for the Gadsden County Times involving “What a Newspaper Means to Me”. In his essay he spoke of the newspaper as a val- uable link to his country, the Philippines. His winning article was published in the Times , and he received a free subscription and a dictionary. Hard work paid off for sev- eral Juniors as they took high honors in the county. The Ex- change Club’s Patriotism Speech Contest took Jennifer Smith to the State Finals in Vero Beach. Cammie Schroeder, Tanny Santos, and Ben Lindquist competed in the County Soil and Water Con- servation Contest. Tanny went on to compete in the Area Con- test in Chipley. Ben and Cam- mie came in second and third respectively during and after- noon in which RFM was pitted against six other speakers. Newspaper Award Winner, Rocky Aubunag displays a comfortable adjustment to his newfound friends and changed environmenl. They each received a cash award along with experience. Acting talents were exposed when the Sophomores performed several One Act plays. Richard Rivera’s computer fell in love with him in “The Lovesick Com- puter”, and “The Two Lunatics” (a.k.a. Lance Johnson and Christi Eggersdorf) kept everyone chuck- ling. Several students were found in unexpected roles, but all did well. When speaking of the per- formers Mrs. Lindstrom said, “They all changed so much from when they started.” All of the re- hearsing made for fabulous shows. The Gadsden County Spelling Bee was Amanda Helms’ compe- tition. She took third place after missing the word p-u-n-c-t-u-a-1. She said, “I will never forget that word.” It may have been a hassel to complete the assignment, but the results made it worthwhile for most students. Everyone loved a chance to show off. Showing Off 143 Procrastination and Boredom Lead t Strange Ways of Dealing Wit The dreaded “H” Won Night after night of homework led people to develop habits for making their tiresome task more enjoyable. For some that meant no homework. However, for the majority it meant having a radio or a television on. “I have to have noise” said Joey Blitch. Terry Armstead admitted “I don’t really listen to the radio, because I’m concentrating unless, of course, a good song comes on.” Talking on the phone while working was al- so popular, especially with Kim Godwin and Sunshine Gauss. Lying in bed with the radio going was a favorite way to do homework for Scott Melvin and Ed Hinson, as well. During the winter you could find Adam Thompson wrapped in an electric blanket, or by the heater doing his homework. Usually, Beth Thomas was in front of the mirror fixing her hair, as she studied for a test. Going to bi with unfinished homewo sometimes meant getting up i hour earlier before going school. For more carefree sou homework was saved specifical for the car, or bus ride to schoo or even the period before tl class the homework was due fo But, among all these strange hal its, according to Ina Munro “Doing your homework is tl strangest habit!” 144 Academics referring a more social environment than the seclusion of his bedroom, Randy kipper hits the books while watching Night Court”.

Homework Habits 145 The End Is Near, Or Is It Term papers. Poetry papers. Would they ever end? It began in third grade with an around the would trip and snow- balled into a three week project. Some juniors definitely thought term papers would never end. Julia Jones said she wasn’t sick of reading “yet”. After only one month of lugging those plas- tic boxes around, Heidi Pickels asked, “Would it be okay if we just brought the cards?” This Ed Hinson gels a head slarl on his T. S. Eliot poelry paper during spare moments in the computer room. Just Beginning wouldn’t end soon, however, because next year offered an- other “endless project”. After term papers and speeches, the seniors were supposed to be the “old pros,” right? Wrong. Debbie Foley commented that, “The Poetry project was rough, but it wasn’t as bad as term papers.” “Three weeks sounds like a long time, but when you’re do- ing a paper, it’s nothing,” were the words of wisdom from Di- anne Spooner. The papers were handed in. Whether on time or late, they were finished. Not everything en- ded completely though, memo- ries of late nights, the sounds of a pencil scratching thoughts on pa- per and the typewriter’s constant click would linger in the minds until the next paper began.

Endless Projects W 147 New Twists Of Everyday Type Stuff Make Enrichment Anything But Enrichment ... It wasn’t just Scholastic magazines, newspa- pers, and guest speakers. New Wave Enrichment consisted of untold new possibilities such as Joey Blitch bringing his skate- board, Melanie Morris pledging the flag in sign language, Adam Thompson’s showing of his per- sonal scrapbook, and interesting stories told by Rocky Agbunag, about arriving in the United States from The Phillipines. During the course of the year, Nancy Reagan was mailed a get well note, and the class actually received a reply! The sixth, seventh, and eight graders went to the Greek Food Festival at the Orthodox Church in Tallahassee, where they sampled the food and the delicious pastries. Enrichment offered students learning that wasn’t limited by textbooks. Each person also Ordinary! taught a lesson from a calendar, catalog, map, dictionary, or mov- ie. Before exams, they collected and discussed subjects they’d studied from the newspapers. The students had nothing to compare to this New Wave En- richment. But, then it needed no comparison, even if they did have to dig deep for replies to Mrs. Smith’s famous “Let’s expand on that.” T-shirls make all sorts of statements, from polilical views to support of unding events, from commercia comments, to expressed loyalties. Pheobe Cox's speaks for itself.

Enrichment W 149 From Disecting to Dirt Science Provides Fun for Some And a Queasy Stomach for Others “Scalpel, scissors, tweezers.” “Oh, how revolting!” Whether you were disecting frogs, crayfish, or pigs, familiar words and smells filled the Bi- ology lab. Descriptive words from students with weak stomachs ex- pressed their distaste for disec- tions, while the smells of the pre- server challenged even the bravest of biologists. There were those adventurous people who enjoyed getting their hands into the project-literally. Kathy Dowling, Jennifer Smith, and Scott Melvin didn’t bother to use plastic gloves. They were thrilled to have the experience of finding out what really made those pig’s hearts tick. Then there were the pale, shaky students. The ones who wore double layered plastic gloves and touched their spec- imens with arms stretched as far as possible. A warning to those types came from Mrs. Gregory early in the year. The weak stomached had strong ideas, and believed they could stand it. Little did they know that it was easier to say it, than to mean it. Before you even walked in the room, the pungent aroma surrounded you. A feeling of quick nausea swept over you as you tried to ignore it. Un- fortunately, a smell like that lasts for weeks. If disecting didn’t excite you, there were other aspects to sci- ence. From physical and earth science to chemistry, there was a type for each budding scientist. Challenging the laws of gravity and air pressure, along with dis- covering photosynthesis from closed experiments and the green house effect, helped make sci- ence more interesting for those who weren’t as fascinated with animals. The best part of the experi- ments was being able to clean up all utencils and pans and rid yourself of any smell or hardship. Unfortunatly, the aroma of alco- hol followed you around for weeks. Karen Hayes, Molly Wilson, and Kena Maxwell readily let Jennifer Smith do the dirty work on the cow’s heart, while they ward off the odor of alcohol as best they can.

Howev- er, as many students find out, it’s more than just a convenient entertainment between first and second period. While most other classes educate us about the world, our past, and the basics for possible careers, elective courses are geared more toward individual talents and interests. For artistic people who wished to enhance their talents, Art was the obvious choice. Mu- sically inclined people who en- joyed singing and productions brought their talents from the shower to the school chorus, where their singing was enjoyed at Christmas and May Day pro- ductions. Creative journalistic abilities ranging from reporting to picture developing, were ap- preciated on the Paw Print and Journalism staffs. Computer Programming was offered for people who enjoyed modern technology . The main attrac- tion of electives was that they involved things people enjoyed doing. Electives were far from easy “crip-courses” because tal- ents were important. We were doing something we liked learn- ing in the process.

They went first to FSU. Here, they lost to two teams and de- feated six. However, they didn’t make the final four. The team traveled to Perry for the third annual Big-Bend High School Bowl sponsored by the Tallahassee Democrat. Here, they got off to a bad start because the team was “not in focus.” As a result, they came in 13th out of twenty-four teams. The team didn’t come away empty handed because Ben Lindquist learned the art of aggression from Maclay’s “be first to buzz in after the question is read” strategy. Af- ter lunch the team took a trip to Wal-Mart. While separated from their sponsor, Mrs. Gregory, Bry- an Ramos took Hugh Van- Landingham for a ride in a shopping cart. Hugh, armed with a frying pan, blanket, horn, and sunglasses, rode all over the store beeping at cus- tomers. The rest of the team, not wanting to be left out of the fun, threw little red balls at each other. A great way to un- wind after a long day of an- swering toss-ups and bonus questions. Their chance to redeem themselves came at the Beta Club District Meeting with The Beta Bowl. Here, they were determined to win, and Ben Lindquist used his new strategy, “buzz before you think.” Ironically, new mem- ber, Jamey Worrell, wanted to “lose the first round, so we can go eat lunch.” After being in a tie with the other team, Ben Lindquist answered the last question, “What was the Har- lem Globetrotter’s theme song?” correctly. The team left for lunch humming the win- ning tune, “Sweet Georgia Brown.” Wendy’s was quite surprised when the van pulled up at the Drive-Thru window. As a result of winning, the team got a chance to travel to Orlando and visit Disney World. Preparation included watching Humanities films and reading books. The Junior Brain Brawl team fared well against the Senior team in their practice round in front of the school. The members put forth the extra time and energy it took to be on the Brain Brawl team.

Brain Brawl ‘li 157 Excused Absences Make Hard Work Pay Ofj Even though keeping up grades was tough, the trips and getting out of school made the work pay off. The first of these was a trip to the Kindergarten to help carve pumpkins. They even entertained the kids during snack. In the place of M M guess they had the softball throw at the Fall Carnival. The most interesting trip was to Beta District meeting at Chipola junior College. They stopped at Hardee's in Chat- tahoochee for a mid-morning snack before a long ride to Marianna.

He made good use of a hollow tree stump in the woods. “Miss” Beverly was embarassed to say the least. The Junior Beta Club had a new sponsor, Mrs. Cheryl Smith. Her suggestion to have refreshments after induction was one that members thor- oughly enjoyed. The trips, projects, and laughs shared by all members made it very clear that all work and no play makes for a boring time.

Stepping Into Familar Shoes Student Council started off by working the week before school began. They stepped into the comfortable shoes of previous members by painting the parking lot spaces and lending a helping hand to the parents and teachers, who were also loaded with more than their share of work. A luncheon was provided in the library to welcome the new students. Stephen Lane,new tenth grade student, said, “It gave me a chance to meet some new people.” To change the tradition some- what they decided to hold Home- coming at The Legion Home, rather than the Sawano or Coun- try Club. Junior, Angel Whiddon said, “Because it was an easier location, it made everybody want to go more”. For the Fall Carnival, members hammered in the stakes and fit- ted the boxes together to create the famous tunnel crawl. The Christmas tree was a big hit in the auditorium. Amy Benedict’s comment, “The tree looked better this year because we bought new lights, and for once Cory Hill cut it straight, summed it up. On February 11, Mrs. McK- eown, Christy Hill, Michele Irwin, Christi Adams, and Ka- ren Hayes decorated for Miss Munroe, which was held at the Swano Club the following eve- ning. As tradition would have it, Valentine’s Day carnations were sold and delivered. Several projects throughout the year were priorities. Litter control and student responsi- bility were among them. Di- anne Spooner said,“It’s a lot of Sampling Mama’s brownies Amy Ben- edict, Karen Hayes, and Amy Curry set up the buffet to welcome new students during the second week of school. Excused from fourth period, Michelle Irwin works as a Student Council rep- resentative attaching love notes to the carnations for Valentine's Day. work, but the results are worth it.” Mrs. McKeown was sponsor for her fourth year, and prob- ably her most trying year! The pre-dance alcohol problem during the Miss Munroe fes- tivities created, not only a dis- cipline problem, but concern for the future dances. The pos- itive results of a serious stu- dent assembly were experi- enced at the prom. Paving the parking lot was “money well spent” in the spring. Elections brought about enthusiastic campaigns and a roster of willing, able of- ficers. The last bell brought cheers of relief, but also the knowledge that the parking lot would need new paint in just two and half short months. Annual preparation of decorating the Christmas tree means Mrs. McKeown must search the boxes and bags for anything that might be re-used.

Anchor 165 Unique In Every Way With every staff different each year, the Paw Print changes style and technique. Not being able to take Creative Writing two years in a row meant that every staff had a style of their own. Only one senior, Laura Al- exander, chose to battle out deadlines during her last year. Laura and Ben Lindquist were the editors and they did their best to see that everyone had every article and poem in on time. Jason Arnold and John Charles Harnett could still be seen sitting at the computer during any spare minute they could squeeze from classes along with staying after school on some days. One catastrophe struck when the copier in the teach- er’s lounge was out of order and pages had to be run off in time to pass out the issues. They were late but they got out. An extra long issue was released one month when the one before wasn’t passed out. Sitting on steps, benches, or the ground, in every nook and cranny, the Paw Print staff was spread all around the school campus composing their final poems. The fresh air and sun- shine provided the best creative ideas. The Paw Print gave each mem- ber a chance to write about what they believed in or felt. John Harnett wrote about war and the feelings of a sargeant towards his troops in one issue. Mary Kather- ine Gregory told teens to stay out of cars if they had been drinking because of the serious effects it had on family, friends, and your- self. Ben Lindquist’s “Been Jam- min” appealed to the skateboarders of the generation and everyone had the chance to submit poetry of their feelings. The Paw Print went through a few struggles but still managed to make the issues of 1987-88 some of the best. The stone benches by (he school are home to many Paw Print members, including Jason Arnold and Ben Lindquist.

The chorus boys “swab the deck” for Miss Crystle as they perform “A Whale of a Tale. Chorus 169 Chorus Lives In Miss Crystle’s Magic Kingdom “Are you going to take chorus this year?” “No, I don’t think so.” “Come on man, It will be fun.” “O.K., but I better like it.” This was the conversation heard be- fore many people ever decided to step into Miss Crystle’s chorus room. Although many joined on this basis, there were no regrets. Chorus was packed with excite- ment, and there was always something going on. Even Miss Crystle had to work with a busy schedule. She had enrolled in F.S.U. and had to go to Tallahassee every morning be- fore coming back to school to teach her own class. This had both good and bad effects. Miss Crystle had to study when she had a big test coming up. On the other hand, when no one wanted to work, she would tell the class to get on the ball. “If you think you have it rough, wait until you get into college.” Between Miss Crystle’s classes and everyone else’s ex- tracurricular activities, the class managed to put on fine shows. The first exhibition was at the Square in Quincy at Christmas time. Several chorales caroled on the Court- house steps. Mr. Bevis gave a speech to fit the occasion of the lighting of the Courthouse. The second show was the Christmas Vespers. The Munroe Chorale shared the stage with church choirs. The practice went on for months before. Christy Hill and Ram- sey Curry were always run- ning off sheet music in the of- fice and Bill Higdon was creating a musical disturbance with the new instruments. Even with the distractions, the Vespers was one of the best ever. The grand finale was May- day. This involved not only singing but dancing as well. The chorale boys sang “Davy Crockett” and “A Whale of a Tale”. The girls vocalized “He’s a Tramp” and So This is Love.” The final entourage consisted of the elementary and high school chorus mem- bers singing “It’s A Small World”. Members of the Mick- ey Mouse Club divided up and led the younger chorus mem- bers in the grande finale that simulated a kaleidoscope.

Gil Chason headed up a com- mittee to work on the first proj- ect, which was to mount a bul- letin board in the auditorium. The boys breathed a sigh of relief as the last screw was turned, but the work wasn’t over yet. They then had to find people to change the announcements. Coach Hildebrant found a quick solu- tion to this problem by deciding that anyone who ate with the Ki- wanis Club had to change the an- nouncements. Eating with the Kiwanis club was one of the benefits of Key Club, and the boys were always trying to get a meal of steak, spa- ghetti, or barbecued chicken. When Coach Hildebrant found out how good the food was, he decided that bulletin board du- ties were not enough, so he added the job of handing out chicken and sandwiches on Tuesday and Thursdays. The next project was the Blood Drive. Coach Hildebrant’s ideas never en- ded, and teachers from one end of the school to the other were asked to donate. All the blood given was donated to the Robert F. Munroe account, and anyone in need of blood who was associated with the school could draw from the account. The Key Club held their an- nual Faculty-Key Club basket- ball game, and were beaten once again. Although the club lost, they still came out on top by donating $300 to the Pres- ton Spooner Memorial Fund. The Key Club was always thankful for the help given by their sponsors, the Kiwanis Club. In order to show their thanks, they helped Kiwanis deliver the fruit which they sell every year, and also helped out on the annual Ki- wanis softball tournament. The Key Club was more ac- tive than ever, and was always there to lend their helping hands. Becoming more service oriented gave an added dimen- sion to the value of being a responsible part of the commu- nity.

Mrs. Bassett tries out a “hog as an alternative to the sleepless night ahead. 174 W Spring Activities No Prescription Required Just Take One, and Call Home if Possible When school was getting really intolerable, the prescription was ...a field trip. Whether it was local or long-distance, it was nec- essary. St. Augustine provided the much-needed break for the fourth grade. They toured a lot of the old buildings, and to provide more excitement the girls dec- orated “Uncle Johnny’s” van. Treatments go wrong some- times. The fifth grade learned this while returning from the Agirama in Tifton, Georgia. Luckily no one was seriously injured in the collision which involved three of the cars car- rying fifth graders. Prior to this, they plowed fields and cooked their own lunch. Even kindergarteners need a dose of relaxation. Their order was filled at the Jacksonville Zoo. They viewed monkeys, elephants, giraffes, other ani- mals and birds. They chartered a bus which was exciting for most of them. Seniors requested the max- imum dosage after numerous research papers and tests. They hit the slopes at Beech Mountain, North Carolina, to relieve their school tension. During the zoo lour, kindergarteners listen to the guide discuss (he danger of monkies despite their deceiving ap- pearance. The time finally arrived for the eighth grade to follow doctor’s or- ders. A long bus ride to Wash- ington D.C. was enlivened when Adam Thompson locked himself in the bathroom. A brief sepa- ration at the Tomb of the Un- known Soldier wasn’t a problem for veterans Mrs. Bassett and “Uncle Johnny”. The bus driver made their trip even better when the boys were allowed to rap on the microphone. The Pottery, a shopping center, proved to be the biggest attraction for most chaperones. Once medicated, students could return to every-day school- life. But everyone waited for the next expedition, because some- times refills were required for the illness to heal properly. ■ Making Changes: — There's Always Room For Improvement Because No Body Is Perfeci Whether students were getting into shape or staying in shape, a lot of time and effort was in- volved. Among other things to spur them on, were pride in themselves and, more important- ly, those approving looks from someone special. Sports played a major role in the fight for fitness. From football to track, to tennis, to cheering, practices increased endurance, improved agility, and built mus- cles. Extracurricular activities in- cluded weightlifting, swimming, aerobics, and jogging. If the guys had some spare time and nothing pressing to do after school, they headed up to the weight room to work out. As a part of staying slim and trim the girls headed to “The Exercise Barn” to work out in an aerobics class two or three evenings a week. Still, others took up jogging or walking in the evenings and on weekends. Strolling up and down King Street was a pop- ular form of excercise for many Quincy residents. Those who preferred privacy ex- cercised at home to work off extra calories and tone mus- cles. A healthy body deserved a healthy glow to complete the effect. Earning that tropically savage tan meant “laying out” for hours at the beach or at home. Another alternative was the quick and easy tanning booths. Although fitness was a long hard, and sweaty job, the benefit) reaped outweighed the negatives Therefore students continued their struggle for the perfect body.

Wondering if that “special” person would send a “special” Valentine brought goosebumps along with excitement. Thanksgiving festivities began with the fifth graders play, and on Halloween the elementary tra- ditionally dressed up in costumes and paraded through high school lunch. Halloween for some high school students meant a “toga” party Halloween night. On Valentine’s Day, the office was overflowing with balloons and flower arrangements to be sent to students. At Easter, el- ementary students went on Eas- ter Egg hunts at different places, and on Halloween the kindergar- ten searched for the perfect pumpkin in the pumpkin patch. A holiday could be anything from eating Thanksgiving dinner, trick-or-treating with your little brother, or searching for lost Eas- ter Eggs before the ants found them. No matter what the hol- iday consisted of, the days never seemed to last long enough. Culling and pasting lakes on new dimen- sions for a kindergartener as she designs Valentine hearts.

Their excitement dwindled as Mrs. Woodward re- minded then they could still be counted tardy, if they were late. Maury Hodgens, Gil Chason, and Mary Katherine Gregory don’l waste a second of the music, despite the heat of the Swano Club. Pizza and doughnuts boosted spirits as the Juniors built pyr- amids, drew heiroglyphics and dressed their mummy. Putting palm trees together was tough- er than expected. The guys used a minature gold pyramid for a glove as they played base- ball. Miss Terrie and Mr. Larry Benedict provided helping hands while building the giant walk through pyramid at the entrance into the prom. After dinner at the Silver Slipper or Steak ‘n’ Ale, couples arrived all decked out to have their pictures taken in front of the pyramid. They rocked to the sounds of the Deejay from At- lanta. The side porch was a pop- ular escape from the watchful eye of chaperones and the heat. Students and their dates were treated to a breakfast at the Flournoy’s. By that time their at- tire had changed somewhat. The boys loosened their ties, and the girls shed pantyhose, shoes, and crinolines. The night ended early in the morning, but the magic didn’t. Visions of pyramids, palm trees, and a mummy helped students to still ‘Rock on the Nile’. Giving a palm tree the final trimmings.

Beta Club’s Jamey Worrell won runner up at the State English Competition, and represented the state of Florida in the National Competition. The Brain Brawl team went all the way to the Florida Beta Convention, where they placed second and earned the right to compete in the Nation- als. The team then went to Lit- tle Rock, Arkansas, where they represented Florida, and achieved fourth place status nationwide. Sports achievements came in large loads. Jeffrey Rushing was awarded MVP in Varsity Football, while Wade Williams had the most free throws in Boys Varsity Basketball. The athletes of the year were Tom Bauldree and Sharon Sum- merford. Academic Achievement Awards were given out to grades 2-12, as were those for perfect attendance. Those student who maintained an A — average each semester, received an award in that subject. Individuals that hadn’t missed a single day of school got perfect attendance. Some students demonstrated school spirit, and received awards for two, three, even six years of perfect attendance. Elementary and high school students demonstrated intelli- gence and athletic ability, which gave the entire school a reason to be proud. Belh McCown, Michael Mann, Shaun Foley, and Lance ohnson receive certifi- cates for showing outstanding ability on their N.E.D.T.’s.

Every year grandparents, parents, friends, and students join the festivities. A special tribute was paid to the late Walt Disney. The chorus program opened with Laura Annette” Alexander and Mark “Jimmy” Branson from the Mousekateer Club as they be- gan to tell the history of Dis- ney. Then came approximately forty dwarfs dressed in rags and felt hats singing “Hi Ho, Hi Ho” on their way. Snow White and her Prince walked arm in arm off the gym floor and so began the May Day program. Followed by all of Disney’s best: “When You Wish Upon a Star”, “Supercalifragilisticex- pialadocious”, and Winnie- the-Pooh, the show proved to be one of the best. Even though the program looked like it was no trouble, the chorus practiced long and hard. Teachers relunctantly ex- cused the members to go and practice. But the hard work paid off with thundering applause and “congratulations”. After it was over, a party was held during the last part of the day for chorus members. They celebrated one more success. On Grandparent’s Day, stu- dents got to spend time with their grandparents and friends during lunch. Entertainment, good food, along with great company made for a special day to always re- member.

How- ever, for most it began earlier since class time was spent en- visioning the beach, soaking up rays and partying. Unfortunately the first weekend was mostly spent watching television shows, like Sparticus Atticus and Michelle Johnson’s favorite. The Big Valley . As the weather cleared,so did the houses. Everyone ven- tured out to the beach to bask in the sun and swim in the Gulf. At night everyone headed to Panama City for entertain- ment. However, while cruising “the strip” one evening Dianne Spooner, Debbie Foley, John Bar- row, and Brad McCown were left stranded in Panama City when the fan switch in Dianne’s car broke. By the end of the week most everyone had their limit of sun and were tired out from the cons- tant action and lack of sleep. Af- ter a week of being together all the time everyone was ready to head for home, maybe even pre- pared for another stretch of school.

Rainy weather had been ignored in hopes that field day would or could be held “in the gym.” Students had left books at home and homework unfin- ished. Monday arrived only to find the seniors would be late be- cause of a “Hamlet” test. The juniors and sophmores had their hands full setting up. The enjoyment of the kids was obvious. There were at least four hanging on to your hands or shirt, which by the end of the day was a “one size fits all.” All, at the same time that is. There were moments of pain and defeat. Sliding stops were popular in the scooter race. The 40-yard dash had its share of close finishes. By noon the excitement had died down. The field was clear, and the sound of laughing kids was faint, but the memory of the wipe out was still vivid, just as vivid as the blue of the ribbon with your name on it. After a first poor throw at the lire, the second hits the mark guaranteeing a blue ribbon.

David Gregg's first solo attempt keeps the audience entertained, while the Senior boys sing the refrain. 190 Spring Activities Seniors Bow Out And Bid Farewell With “Happy Trails” From the moment the first bell rang at 8:22 a.m. in August, the Seniors anticipated the day when they would walk down the aisle and receive their diplomas in front of family and friends. On May 26, girls in formal dresses and guys in tuxedos were introduced before singing, danc- ing, and remembering. Class President, Dianne Spooner, recit- ed the class history of the thir- ty-nine students. Beginning with the old and ending with the new, along with the antics and special memories, they had a chance to relive their years. Vice-President, Cory Hill, gave the class prophecy. Every graduate would remem- ber Kena Maxwell’s ill-fated contact with a condor bird, and Wade Williams’ replacement of comedian David Letterman. Lamar Taylor read the last Will and Testament of the class. Drew Bostick willed Adam Burns hair since Adam seemed to be missing some of his. After the girls sang “Yakety- Yak” and “Lollipop, Lollipop” and the boys sang “Happy Trails”, with a solo by David Gregg, the class walked out of the gym singing “We Go Together”. The next night, the real excite- ment hit. They snuck upstairs and put on their caps and gowns. Afterwards, more tears and hugs were seen throughout the gym. The Seniors had graduated and were getting ready to face the world and meet new challenges. Drake Flournoy enierlains with his antics in exit to the tune We Go Together .

Either Dancing Feet, or an Empty Stomach Is the Best Way to a Person’s Purse Have you ever had to go to a basketball or football game and on- ly had thirty minutes to get there without having had supper first? Well the Booster Club solved that problem. The Booster Club always manages to have golden fried fish or hamburgers before important games. Brownies, Snickers, M M’s, cokes, pizza, and popcorn were also available at the concession stand. Fans could be seen lined up to the bleachers as they prepared to purchase their food. Not only did the Booster Club serve food at games, but also at the annual Fall Carnival. Chicken pileau along with desserts of all kinds were ready to choose from. Booster Club met several times over the summer to plan in advance the concession stands for football and basket- ball games. The long games were harder to get through without the help of a little “pick-me-up”. On those cold, winter football nights, a cup of hot chocolate or coffee warmed the hands and the stomachs. Kids ran around begging for a quarter, dime, or even a nickel, anything to help tend to their appetites. Even grown-ups liked to have fun too! The Booster Club rolled up their jeans, put on poodle skirts and bobby socks and danced all night to classic fifties songs. A Back To the Fifties Dance for the par- ents, sponsored by the Booster Club, helped parents give off a lit- tie steam and have a lot of fun! While the parents were out having fun, their kids enjoyed having a quiet night to themselves at home. Being in the Booster Club wasn't always fun and games. Hard work went into preparing the many ac- tivities they did. Without the Booster Club, many important things would not get done. Frying fish is an art and Mr. Mac McCown and Mr. Bo Chason get plenty of practice at the pre-game dinner sponsered by the Booster Club at the Homecoming Game. 200 Ads Before the Homecoming Game, Mrs. Linda Ventry sets up the Booster Club booth at the fish fry, ready to serve with a smile.

After highschool lunch time Snicker’s wrappers, Grand- ma’s cookie bags, loose Cheetos, and Coke pop tops could be seen in the grass, under tables, around the trashcan, and on top of the pay phone. From afar, one might think they were looking at some sort of abstract art collage. When Mrs. Johnson was on lunch duty, her fifth period class could always look forward to missing the first part of English picking up the “left over gar- bage”, if it was Mrs. Wooward’s day, “the stick” could be seen threatening anyone who looked guilty of discarding their trash in an inappropriate place. Careless students could spoil not only the look, but also the smell of the eating area. Rotten banana peels, brown apple cores, Threats of assigned sealing encourage Lance Johnson and others to set a good example, and save his freedom lo eal where he chooses. squished grapes, and curdled yogurt could stimulate even the stongest of stomachs to writhe in discomfort. Who wanted to pick up yucky gar- bage anyway? “It’s not my trash, I didn’t even sit there!” Some effort was put into try- ing to “clean up” the problem. Individuals were chosen by the teacher on duty to “be in charge of the area.” This never seemed to work, and Woodrow could still be seen picking up trash here and there. Tough teachers and harsh threats wouldn’t solve the problem, only the students had the power to do it. 216 Ads In a rush to make it to 5th period class, Aundrea Downs and Kathy Dowling hurry by the trash can after having been reminded by student council to clean up their mess. Several eyesores require clean up after the long awaited air conditioning installation is completed. The ever dreaded lunch duty is better known as “trash patrol .

During the First Presbyterian Youth Groups' ski trip, it is obvious that some are more adapt at skating than skiing. First Presbyterian Youth Groups' new idea of selling hot chocolate, hot dogs, and chili on the square as a money raising project for the yearly ski trip, proved to be prof- itable. m m m. 232 Ads ---- Projects Attract Additional Members to Share in the Work and Fun Church youth population has in- creased more and more every year. This was partly due to the fact that a larger number of kids and young adults needed to learn about Christ and the Bible, but at the same time still “wanted to have fun. Kids were faced with more severe problems than in the past. Most kids in youth were just be- ginning to drive, date and be ex- posed to peer pressure. Because of these problems, most people needed someone or something for answers. Church youth leaders and youth programs provided these answers. Not only were questions answered, but fun activities were always planned. Trips, dances, hay rides, and games were only a few of the events throughout the year. Fund raisers were an important part also. On December 1 the First Presbyterian Youth group sold chili, hot chocolate, and hot dogs on the square to raise money for their an- nual trip to Beech Mountain in North Carolina. The Baptist had a Prime Rib dinner in which the Youth members were waiters and waitresses. Another of the Presbyterian’s money raisers was a “Fifth Quarter Dance which was held November 20 after the last home football game. Ski trips were part of the Centenary Methodist Youth and the Presbyterian’s Youth groups year. The Methodist and their Youth leader, Cheryl Smith, went to Sugar Mountain. It was an experience having jason Shelfer and Hal Fletcher teach every- one to ski. The Baptist Youth took a trip to Chop Bottom Hollow, Kentucky. They held a Backyard Bible Club for the children there. When they left, the children were looking forward to their return visit this summer. Today even the older kids are be- ginning to see that Youth wasn’t just for ‘‘little kids. The fun, projects, activ- ities, fellowship and friends made Youth groups more popular. Lisa Lewis and Coach Wilder laugh at their cooking difficulties in the cramped kitchen on the ski trip. Ramsey Curry chooses to balance on the outside rail of the rink rather than fighting the crowd on the ice. Church Youth 233 Gadsden Office Equipment Co.

It doesn’t always work that way, though.” Tommy Skipper sponsored the basketball team, Skipper Survey- ors, because “I enjoy basketball. There are so many kids all over that don’t get a chance to do this sort of thing. 1 think Susie Morris is doing a great job.” Coach Mor- ris started Prep Leaque basket- ball four years ago and in her Lillie league cheerleader. Leah Edwards roots for the Kiwanis city league football team un- der the supervision of REM Varsity Cheer- leader's Kena Maxwell and Grayson Munroe. During time out with his Gadsden Enter- prises team, Mr. Kimmel discusses stategy against Skipper Surveyors for the second half. efforts to start a basketball program, she has spurred Gadsden Christian and Aucilla Christian into start- ing similar programs. Chuck and Gay Powell coach the Chandler’s little major league baseball team, “I played when I was little. That’s why I coach. We’re coaching to play, I guess.” Starting off young opened up many opportunities for these kids. The league in- troduced them to different sports at a young age therefore, provid- ing, better future players on high school teams. So, for both kids and coaches the frustration was worth the effort. 248 Ads Coach Morris's awards day is the highlight of Prep League season. Coaches feff and Tracy Faircloth and Mrs. Bonnie Williams watch as outstanding players are being recognized.

CALLS FOR LEADERSHIP In Large Amounts The upcoming blend was prepared painstakingly with serious, as well as silly activ- ities. Elections and final show offs all worked together in an effort for leadership to be claimed. After all, being at the top was what it was all about. Posters, tags, and political strategies were put into action to win the votes of the student body. When ballots were counted, winners anounced, and skits and term papers com- pleted everyone felt like a win- ner. The new leaders would make a difference. The taste just kept getting better.

After days of tests, assemblies, and last minute completed proj-- ects, it was time for either summer freedom or summer employment. Students of all ages looked forward to mental relaxation and an oppurtunity for a full night of sleep. Strained brains now had three months to recover. Whether they were spending their sum- mer in the sun, in front of the tube, behind a desk, or in a field of plants, at least no teacher could give them an as- signment. Farewells to friends and plans for beach trips and vacations were the natural in- gredients necessary for con- tentment. £• A( (he Bela Convention in Orlando, Florida, Ben Lindquist and lamey Wor- rell spend free time between rounds of competition and big bucks” a!
