Under a new co-prin- cipal plan, students had to learn the difference between instruction and administration to know where to direct their ques- tions. Even students who never before had been tar- lng into a classroom filled with the wrong people, only to rush out again after realizing that first period preceeds homeroom and begins five minutes ear- lier. The real test of the day came when lunchtime rolled around, now short- ened to 45 minutes. A few realized quickly they'd never make it to Hardee's and back, so they decided instead of eating out, they'd eat in. But the most popular part of the new change in pace, everyone agreed, came at the end of the day. For instead of life be- ginning at 3:21, the final bell rang at 3:10. Students could get an ll-minute head start on the best of student life. stan l l 04 fl UJUQ -9019 Wy, e. n 1 We HOU 'J UJGS d 4Fx?50ffl6'H,ll.flq,kj1CUd..f?Je U fhaq' his Us .6 Mutterlng under his breath senior GY GL -fy, ed -6 gou JY' J Andy Metcalf attempts a snfile despite 'Pnl Cfrlafy sarme 'fria' of th sweltering heat of band ca7mp. heave. 50-A' - Jalan f know 190+ IQLQLQL -f+:a,f .s la-ge is over, ,089 6OVV'lb'61l f9 Uf m 9 NNXX-N s I 33 l i 1 6 l l Johnson While sweetening lunior Todd Dettman's tooth, cotton candy sales ' also sweetened the band's budget at the annual August fair at City Lake.

Students entered dates on pocket calendars, made plans for Easter excur- sions, and readied themselves for their club's last bash of the season, all while thoughts of caps, gowns, and diplomas en- tered the minds of seniors. Mrs. jane Parvin, Mrs. Catherine Tedder, and Mr. Vann Cutts accompanied groups of students to Europe. The trip to Greece and Italy was great. Mrs. Parvin made it really fun! said senior Andy Anderson. When asked about the cuisine on the trip, senior Dan lobe replied, It was Greek to me, except in Italy, where it was Italian. Mr. Cutts also took a trip to Greece and Italy, exploring the ancient ruins and other attractions. Traveling to foreign countries is one of the most enlightening and inspirational experiences, stated Mrs. Tedder, who took a group to Italy, France, and England. Some people preferred to stay at home and relax during spring vacation. I really had a lot of sleep 'to catch up on, said Daisies do tell!

I had no choice -I had to stay at home because my mother wouldn't let me go out of town, senior Ioylette Whitaker said. On May 4 people had the opportunity to see how many people loved them, as the Latin club delivered May daisies with mes- sages to students and teachers. May daisies are the happiest things that happen at Senior High! They spread joy and love all over school! exclaimed Mrs. Nancy jones, Latin club adviser. As the year began to wind down, thoughts turned to graduation and that long-awaited moment. So many thoughts come into your mind when you cross that stage - it's incredible! alumnus Suzanne Dix reflected. It was just so sad seeing all of the seniors graduate. I felt like I was just get- ting to know them, junior Polly Winstead said. The last day of school officially ended the spring for students and began summer vacation. Seniors prepared themselves for college, juniors began to call themselves SENIORS, sophomores got excited be- cause they were no longer tagged baby sophs, and freshmen began to think of that dreaded first da at RMSH. - Cecily Xtfatson -il- e 1.

Spring activitie - 9 - Do wishes really come true? Seniors Iake Parrott and Lee Wimberly pause to chat beside the wishing Well in the park created by Mrs. Ann Ruggier0's homeroom. Their common wish is for a successful junior-senior prom. ight ma ic bit of card- b o a r d , s c i s s o r s , and a dab of paint chicken wire, greenery, and twinkling lights . . .

PRESTO- CHANGE-O . . . a canopy of green to catch the glimmer of the rotating mirror ball. A definite mood was created as Tight- rope performed everything from Beat It to Jailhouse Rock. The swing into spring was indeed a backwards one as gals invited guys to the social committee's annual T.W.I.R.P. Dance. I liked being asked to the dance because it just made me feel good, senior Matthew Westcott said. Another bit of magic occurred as inge- nious girls turned their mothers' attics in- side out for a truly classic semi-formal dress. Alumnus Beth Mauldin met her date in a pink, calf-length concoction that had served as her mother's wedding dress. 10 - Spring dances I found a beautiful dress in my grand- mother's attic, senior Rainey Astin said. Why waste money when these clothes are so much nicer than the ones available to- day? It took more than magic to turn the gym and student commons into a world of Fantasia for the junior-senior prom. Iu- nior class advisers Martha Lewis and Lin- da Williams joined forces with juniors and their homeroom teachers and, after more than 1000 man-hours, transformed bare areas into a fantasy world. When we first started putting up the decorations, I didn't think they would look too good, but that night they looked great, senior Donna Williford said. An arbor and tunnel of greenery and twinkling lights led couples to the dance floor. Three hundred brilliantly colored balloons, tied to the wrists of dancers, bobbed slowly or bounced crazily accord- ing to the tempo of the music. By Saturday morning all traces of magic had vanished. The clean-up crews de- pended upon sheer muscle power to roll up the parachute, pull down the murals, and clear the debris. Even Coach Bob Hud- kins panted after carrying his share of forty tables and 160 chairs back to the cafeteria. Even if the class of '85 did do it, that was the best dance I have ever been to! exclaimed one senior as he walked into his English class on Monday morning. A dozen voices promptly echoed his observation. All in all, spring nights offered various diversions . . . A bit of romance? . . . Maybe . . . A little magic ? , . .

Senior Kevin Hicks spends precious summer hours helping his mother with the household chores as twin brother Ken takes a camera break. Summer fun - inside and out or some students summer was a dream come true. For others, it was just two months of parties, work, late curfews, dates, the beach, and sleeping late. The beach was the most popular place for spending time. I spent most of my summer there, said sophomore Paige Par- ker. It was great. I went to both sandbar parties. I had a festive time with all my Rocky Mount friends and met some interesting people, senior joe Fish said. A few students traveled to France and Germany, but most stayed near home, going to King's Dominion, sleeping or watching soap operas. Sophomore Wendy Minor said, I went on the western tour and visited Las Vegas, San Francisco, and the Grand Canyon in Arizona. I spent most of my summer working at the Atlantis Seafood Restaurant serving shrimp and stuff, junior Lisa Cooper said. It was fun because many of my friends also worked there. While many chose jobs inside, a few served as lifeguards. My most rewarding experience was saving a little boy from drowning, said senior Mar- ti Mucci. The lower field and parking lot became practicing grounds for the number one band in the nation as they prepared to de- fend their title. As the opening of school drew near, senioritis struck, turning sophomore's lives upside down. Seniors taunted the baby sophs when they showed up at junior and senior parties. Although the con- tinuing tradition was all in fun, many of the sophomores were intimidated by the self-proclaimed Mighty Class of '85. As everyone eased back into school, summer vacation faded into a memory, and students found themselves back into the old routine. By the end of the first week, students were already planning for next summer. Kimberly Bulluck --1 Johnson Taking a break from their Bible study convention, Elizabeth Looney, jimmy Weeks, junior Keven Smith and senior Rainey Astin use volleyball to stay in shape physically as well as mentally. Sweltering heat and high humidity give juniors Mary Cerjan, Ashely Ayers, and Chantal Wright an excuse for a well-deserved break from band camp drudgery. Hiclg Summer ecti ities - 13 ITradition goes on he tradition goes on. The first day of school seniors putting the two together was explosive! Evidence of the new senior class showed every- where: Seniors dominate . . . Seniors do it right . . . Go home, sophs . . . '86 still don't mix . . . Class of 85 ..., all of these ex- pressions displayed on various banners around the school let everyone know who the class of 85 was. Choruses of I don't know, but I've been told ... and Seniors! ... Seniors! .,. were heard everwhere on the campus. Everyone in the vicinity noted that the seniors had truly arrived as parades of cars, pick-up trucks, and jeeps filled with seniors wheeled around Rocky Mount. Proclaiming their superioity, they yelled and screamed at the top of their lungs, while continuously taunting the lower classmen. Senior Sandra Powell felt a bit different- ly about the first day, describing it as mere- ly, Chaotic! Sophomores had to fend for themselves around lunchtime unless they happened upon a considerate senior who remem- bered how he felt as a sophomore. Most seniors headed for their favorite lunchtime munching spot. I was scared to death that I would not find a ride to lunch! exclaimed sopho- more Wendy Minor. I told any sophomores who wanted to ride with me to lunch that . . . they would have to sit in the back seat and be very quiet! senior George Brown said. The class of 86 showed that they were glad to be off the bottom rung of the Gryphon ladder. While the juniors made signs and showed a great deal of spirit, they left most of the yelling and screaming to the seniors. We had a great time decorating our cars and parading to school, but we tried to be cool about it so we wouldn't interfere with the seniors' fun. We just wanted to show everyone that we had some spirit too, but the seniors were much more enthusiastic about it! said junior Tonia Grooms. It was boring being a junior on that day. The seniors were so excited and were hav- ing so much fun! junior Ron Hamm said. By the second day, the uproar had calmed considerably. Tee-shirts, tuxedo tops, and banners found their way into closets, while sophomores learned to avoid the elevator and swimming pool. Everyone fell into the normal routine, but the impressions of that first day remained imprinted on the minds of all students. The traditions continue. .il Cecily Watson -'isfrry ------f A Looks like it might be time to call in the sophbusters if tenth graders make any trouble this year. Seniors Iodi Henke, johnnie Umphlet, and Peirson Lane will come to the aid at any time. 14 - First day of school Senioritis has struck again! Infected, obviously, are seniors Tanya Weaver, Antonia Fox, Shannon Gallagher, Kimberly Bulluck, and Alicia johnson. Screaming from the rooftop, members of the class of '85 do not yet realize that their real challenge comes when they have to climb down a rickety ladder. With a bit more sophistication and style than some of his classmates, senior Ricky Parks reveals how proud and excited he is to be a senior through his dress. The rest of the class of '85 choses to be a bit more casual in tee-shirts and shorts. courtesy 'W , ' , Yf L j ' -A fa V Q. 1 ,,, .

Enthusiasm and involvement at pep rallies exploded. The student body's enthusiasm and in- volvement was super, said senior Dean Beabout. At the beginning of the pep rally, the sophomores climbed to the top of the bleachers, the juniors stopped in the mid- dle, and the seniors cheered on the floor. Although the classes were separated phy- sically, all classes cheered together as one. The pep rallies this year have really been exciting because each of the three classes finally came together as one group to support our team, said senior Gwen Taylor. We finally pulled together as a school, senior Clay Wagner said. The involvement of everybody made the pep rallies complete. The cheerleaders do an excellent job at keeping the spirit up, said Clay Wagner. lt wasnit just the cheerleaders or the pep band or the crowd, it was everybody's joining together, senior Dean Beabout said. Totally awesome, extraordinary, beau- tiful, is what senior Greg Ezzell thought of the pep rallies. Passing out bags to pop and start the pep rally off with a bang, involving students and players in the skits, presenting the spirit stick to the most enthusiastic home- room, and dressing up before a pep rally kept everyone involved. This school can really throw down at pep rallies, said sophomore David Ess. I think the idea of dressing up on the days of pep rallies is a good idea. It puts you more in the spirit of what's going on, senior Cindy Williams said. lf the whole world were like an RMSH pep rally, it would be a better place in which to live, concluded senior Ron Whitehead. Pep rallies have one explicit purpose- to fire up the crowd and encourage the team. lt's no easy task planning something to please everyone and still accomplishing its purpose. Sometimes it seems impossi- ble and everyones ready to give up, forget it and go home and cry, but somehow it always seems to come together. It's that Gryphon spirit, I guess, pulling everyone together, varsity cheerleader Rainey Astin said. - Alicia johnson -li -.I TEA . 1- Seniors, are they?

Beyond the hustle and bustle of six classes, students looked for various forms of entertainment. For some, clubs, band, or sports added enough spice, but others looked further to find some exciting way to spend their 115 hours per week away from school. Attending a movie, always a popular source of entertainment, stretched the wal- let to the tune of 34.00 per ticket. But most students found room in their budget to see Prince's Purple Rain. I went to see Purple Rain because I wanted to see Prince perform. I wanted mostly to hear the great music, said junior Anita Pittman. Another option, Dandy's Game Center, provided fun, a chance to gossip, and an opportunity to play games with other classmates. I usually go to Dandy's when there is nothing else to do. I like it because it is a place I can go and see all of my friends. We usually leave from there and go to a party or something, senior Cindy Williams said. Still others often enjoyed a meal out at Mama Iean's or Hardee's. Even eating couldn't fill every weekend hour, so stu- dents sought entertainment elsewhere at times. Thirty rolls of Charmin', dark clothes, a strong arrn, and a fast get-away car pro- vided recreation for one certain group on several evenings. Yes, toilet paper pro- vided a source of fun outside the bathroom. When we woke up on Sunday morning, we thought we had been hit by a blizzard, but it was only a decorating job by the C.C. falias, Casual Clanjf' said Spanish teacher jane Parvin about the rolling job done on her house. Saturday, normally a day reserved for sleeping late, gave students an opportunity to relax and to participate in individual activities. On Saturday's I usually go to Chapel Hill to see my girlfriend and we go to a football game or to a party, senior Mat- thew Wescott said. Teacher workdays were always long awaited holidays. When they came on Fri- day's or Monday's students were able to enjoy a long three-day weekend. Some stu- dents just relaxed while others used the spare time to work and earn some money. Over the three day weekend in the fall, I rested and recovered from the first nine weeks of school. I also read a romance novel and played in the leaves with my niece, said senior Marcia Coleman. - Lea Daughtridge ll Deciding the stiff price is worth it, senior Tom Shannon and junior Kevin Cox buy their tickets to Prince's new movie Purple Rain.

Where do they all go? There are bun- ches of places to spend those big bucks in Rocky Mount lbelieve it or notj, whether they come from manual labor or mom's wallet. These tend to be the top things that stu- dents blow their dough on: PARTY FOOD: You know, after awhile, those pizzas, potato chips, and soft drinks really begin to add up. junior Pete Kobiel- nik figured that partying provided the big- gest student expense, commenting, On a good weekend, you can spend between S20 or S30 just on partying! CLOTHES: If you desire to be Vicki Vogue or Mr. GQ of RMSH, you will have to dish out some bucks! Sometimes it's just ridiculous how much clothes cost. When you go shopping, you spend about S50 to S100 just on a few things! junior Rita Tucker said. VIDEO GAMES: At a quarter a game, expect to throw some money down the tubes as you zap those aliens or eat those dots. I don't play video games much, but when I do, I throw a lot of money away on them, sophomore jay jolly said. DATES: Unless you have reached the sit-at-home-and-watch-TV stage, be pre- pared to spend some megabucks on mov- ies, pizza, Chinese food, or whatever tick- les hisfher fancy. When you think about how much a guy spends on you for a date, you notice that it's really expensive to go to the movies and out to dinner, junior Tonia Grooms said. GOING OUT WITH FRIENDS: Why don't places give groups such as these spe- cial discounts? Maybe it's because they know that where there's a bunch of folks there's generally someone in the group who can persuade everyone else to blow it all and pig out to the max! I don't mind spending a lot of money at all when I go out with my friends. It's the next day that I regret it! senior Tyrone Battle said. GIFTS: Every time you turn around, there's a birthday or holiday that you have to dig out the crumpled dollars for. I've always loved buying presents for people, but everything that you want to get for them is so expensive. And it seems like all of my friends' birthdays clump together with holidays! senior Dawn Turnley said. TRIPS: Students really like to spend their money away from Rocky Mount, too. Whether youtre heading to New York or for a cottage at the beach, those initial deposits are expected and tend to drain the funds considerably. 'fIt's unreal how much the deposits were for the trip to Italy and Greece last year! I thought I'd never get through paying them! junior Iohnnie Merritt said. SCHOOL SPIRIT SUPPLIES: We know that everyone wants to show his spirit with those great ribbons, buttons, and pom- poms, but you have to dish a lot of moulah out to flash all of that blue and gold around campus. Half the time I just use the ribbons from last year - it gets old very quickly buying all of that stuff every week! senior Richard Verrone said. - Cecily Watson ll Pigging out drastically drains the pocketbook, but at the moment, seniors Monica Card, Tonya Grant, and alumnus jackie Pratt don't seem 'Q to care as they leisurely enjoy their meal at Canton Station. 26 - D's ppearing dollars of 1 1-fi . i ,W 3 . if F Lv , - rift-.Q I .lv R' s- . - L .

Quite con- tent with her selection, she set out to face another day at school. 8:17 a.m.: Approximately three minutes before first period, senior Scott Tulloss rol- led out of bed. Grabbing for his duckheads, t-shirt, and dirty bucks, Scott headed out the door to try to make it to school before 8:25. I get up just in time to get to school on time. I just grab the first thing I see, Scott said. Obviously, fashion coordination ranked rather low in Scott's mind on those late mornings. leans, the hottest fashion, remained at the top of the scene for reasons of conveni- ence and comfort. They did, however, undergo major surgery - no more plain jeans! Faded out, striped-in-the-front-and- Q plain-in-the-back, cropped-at-the ankles, and buttons instead of zippers Such was the jean scene. Guess, Gasoline, Palamento, and Ketch provided the most popular leisure wear. Esprit dominated the fashion market. In a season such as winter, where grays and blacks were the norm, Esprit's bold, daring colors made a sharp impression, and stu- dents felt them a must. Everyone wanted the baggy, faded look, and Esprit had it! Occasionally one would find the male population pulling real fashion out of their closets. Among the tennis rackets, next to the ping-pong table, and behind last year's chemistry project, real fashion appeared. Argyle sweaters, plaid polo shirts, knit ties, and tweed jackets prevailed. Of course, one could always spot the favorites - rag wool sweaters, corduroy pants, pleated shirts, wool slacks, khakis, and button-downs. The clothes people wear tell a lot about their personalities, senior jennifer Gregg said. Kimberly Bulluck ll .! I 'YROIIUQYYQI Look Out! It's junior Sharon Pittman stepping out in style.

Tonight before I came to school to catch the bus, I went back to the stadium for a last look, to pray and to reflect on the last three years. I climbed the fence and walked out in front of the fifty to where the drum ma- jorbox had stood so many times . . . This was one of the few times that I have seriously prayed. I found that I was not praying to win, but that the band would reach its highest potential. I'm not scared of being beaten by a band that is better than us ... I'm scared of being beaten by ourselves.

As best as I can tell we are in Louis- ville, Kentucky. We are staying in another high school gym. It's your basic gym: four walls, six basketball goals and of course a hardwood floor.

We have adjusted to these long bus trips after so many . . . for some reason this second day has really been trying. In retrospect, today was dreary. The rain and clouds darkened the sky, setting a dreary mood. It's just one of those days we practiced until the band couldn't see me on the box. With only two days until the nationals, I think I'm scared. log 2.1 Friday 12:00 noon Things are going pretty good today. The band got up this morning at 6:30 am.

Tomorrow we need to know how to handle every situation that could arise while we are on the box. We must give total con- centration if we are to win. At the same time we must be a ham in order to have a chance at win- ning the Drum Major trophy. To win the trophy would be a dream come true. More hours of practice. All we do is practice. I hope it's worth all the effort. The practices are dead . . . It would be awful to lose by a hundredth of a point - I'm beginning to get scared. log 3.1 Saturday 9:00 am We had our first good breakfast of the trip. I had two ham biscuits and orange juice. I just finished practicing. We had a marching run-through, and I was pleasant- ly impressed. Emotions are swelling . . . . . . Last night they let us walk on the field. The judges were not supposed to let the band on the field, but it is hard to stop 176 band students once they get it in their heads they want to go somewhere When we were able to walk on the field, that huge dome lost its mystique. Now it is just another place to march. . . . The astro turf is slick and someone could lose his footing.

It's a great feeling to be a National Cham- pion - A REAL GOOD FEELING. Stephen Locke ig A mood for all seasons t always seems that the emotions of students change with every season. With summer comes the carefree, do- nothing attitude, while fall brings on feelings of anxiety and anticipation, there's winter with it's holiday spirit and fear of getting the flu, and then come the loving, excited emotions of the spring. Summer . . . freedom, late curfews, parties, and fun in the sun. Students wait with eager hearts for that last school bell to ring before summer vacation. As the schools are evacuated, those favorite summer spots begin to fill up with noisy, excited stu- dents. All of the emotions stored up inside are let out as people head to their special vaca- tion areas. Smiles and suntans are seen on every person's facep emotions are light and carefree. Suddenly, what used to be a school night is now a free night. In the summer, every night is a weekend, there may not always be some- thing to do, but there's always a night to do it! senior jake Parrott commented. But as always, the freedom of summer comes to an end and a new season begins. Fall . . . school, football games, new and old friends, and bright new outfits on cool autumn nights. Fall brings the opening of a new school year, and students start to re- member forgotten things like tardy bells and homework, while they become reunited with old friends and make new ones. The nights begin to get cool and football games provide the best place to spend them. Students bring out their new fall clothes and can not wait to get rid of those summer outfits. The excitement of pep ral- lies, new friends, and football games fills up every student. t'Fall is one of my favorite seasons. You can do so many things that you can't do in the summer, like play football and go to School is on the back of everyone's mind during a big snowstorm, as everyone heads home for a day filled with snowball fights, sledding, and snowcream. 32 - Season's moods school II really like thatlj and meet a lot of new peoplef' sophomore Matt Carey said. Soon, those cool nights begin to turn rather nippy with another change of season. Winter . . . hay rides, holidays, snowball fights, and hot chocolate. This new season brings lots of thrills to high school students as the weather brings about a definite change. Cold, blistery days are met with thick wool seaters and heavy coats and jackets, while snow means getting out of school, snowball fighting, and sledding with one's friends. Winter also brings holidays to mind. Christmas is a time when everyone has parties, exchanges gifts, and most impor- tantly, shares love. All eyes shine brightly and hearts are filled with joy. Hayrides are another popular event dur- ing the winter. Riding in a truck filled with hay and friends is lots of fun for everyone. After spending a cold evening in the hay, sitting by the fireplace proves to be a per- fect spot for that hot relationship. Spring Easter break, school's end, short sleeves, and getting back in the sun- shine. As soon as that thermometer hits 60 degrees, students drag out the cotton blouses and short sleeves and head out to soak up some long awaited sunshine, as they search for a new romance. Everyone anxiously awaits the beginning of Easter break, counting down the days months in advance. I just think spring is the most wonder- ful season! You can finally dump those tiresome winter sweaters and put on some new outfits and go out and enjoy the great weather! said junior Lisa Cooper. Summer, fall, winter, and spring . . . all of these seasons come and go with their own physical changes which sweep the school with changes in emotions. i...

With six classes a day, jobs, and various other activities, students found spare time almost non-existent. I've never had as much homework as I have this year. It seems to be never-ending, and I never seem to have any spare time, junior Amy Winstead said. I've forgotten what T.V. and recreation are this year because I have so much work to do, junior Kim Bunn said. f'Band leaves me with hardly anything else, sophomore Michelle Schiewe said. Although students found spare time rare, they made time for what they enjoyed most. I like to sit around eating and watching T.V., it's very relaxing, senior Sherry Andrews said. Eating, watching T.V., playing video games, cross-stitching, and enjoying the sounds of music, provided entertainment for some. Others enjoyed more vigorous types of Rare time entertainment. I like to spend time working out at the Nautilus, playing racketball, or lifting weights, senior Stephen Locke said. jogging, playing tennis, performing calisthenics, swimming, waterskiing, rid- ing horses, and white water rafting also provided forms of entertainment. Horseback riding gives me a chance to forget all my worries and appreciate na- ture, sophomore Phillip Lanier said. White water rafting on the Nantahala river gives us a natural high and the chance to experience the wonderful strength of nature, senior Alicia johnson and junior Holley Daniel agreed. I enjoy jogging because it helps me get rid of frustrations and also stay in shape, senior Marti Mucci said. Although spare time appears to be rare time on the surface, students seem to find time to do what means the most to them. 1 Kimberly Bulluck...i Marching to the beat of a different drum, junior Randy Taylor tries to protect himself from the ninety degree sun during summer band camp.

' Decisions, decisions, decisions! ecisions, Decisions, Decisions! As young adults, every sopho- more, junior, and senior faced several major and minor deci- sions each day. Seniors faced two of the biggest deci- sions of their educational careers. The choice of whether or not to go to college was a big decision, but which school to attend gave seniors the most trouble. There are lots of different aspects to consider when it comes to choosing a col- lege. I looked at the location, its fields of study, the cost, and of course the school in general. Choosing a college is a personal decision, because the decision is what is right for me, not my friends, senior Deb- orah Anderson said. Every day students made decisions about matters that had nothing directly to do with school. The big decision: Where are we going for lunch? A group of ten students entered the parking lot and in less than two minutes had to decide whether to go to McDonalds or Hardees. Because of indeciveness the group ended up at Wendy's. Lunchtime is always a problem for my friends and me. We can never really decide where we want to go. Since lunch is so short, we have a minute to decide, and then we have to jump in the car and go. We usually end up at some little snack store with heartburn, junior Anita Pittman said.

Some donned the latest styles even before fashion maga- zines hit the stands. Gold fingernails glit- tered from the hands of seniors Michelle Ellison, Pam Gregg, Michelle Vick, and junior Kim Weaver.

Mailing transcripts, keeping records, or just simply giving advice, the guidance counsel- ors William I-Iutchisson, Phyl- lis Horton, and Linda Taylor handled many of the important details of I'academia a la Rocky Mount Senior High. My relationship to the guid- ance department has been most useful and informing. Where else can you find someone to listen to your problems on the spur of the moment? junior Kevin Cox said. Another task often taken for granted is that of the librarians. Organizing books, keeping rec- ords, and just keeping the place in order proved a mammoth duty. If it were not for the spe- cial care of librarians Ella Davis, Barbara Edwards, and Sarah Newton, the library would not have been as condu- cive to studying as it was. Keeping a building in repair was no simple chore. Whether changing light bulbs, sweeping the hallways, or locking up the school, our staff of custodians was always on the job. Featur- ing such stars as Fred Dupree and Kenneth Smith, the custo- dial and maintenance staffs al- ways managed to keep things in order. The only gratitude most teachers received is perhaps a thank-you from a former stu- dent. Recognition was one area where Senior High was not lacking. Deborah Wilson, histo- ry teacher, received the Terry Sanford award for excellence for creative teaching while Catherine Tedder was selected as Rocky Mount's Teacher of the Year.

I feel like my Ray-Bans are a part of me. IfI leave the house without them, I feel naked all day, senior Kimberly Bulluck said. Sometimes a few people get carried away with the idea of outwearing their Ray-Bans. Last Easter we were begin- ning to wonder if Kimberly Bulluck even had eyes. She wore those ever popular glas- ses, senior Katurah Hartley said. Nobody really knows how long the Ray-Ban fad will last with the way times change so quickly. I surely hope they stay in style for a long time, especially when each pair costs about for- ty dollars, junior Holley Shannon Gallagher Daniel said. Even if the Ray-Ban fad does slowly fade away, these glas- ses will still be remembered just the same as penny loafers. Ray-Ban wearers include Mac MacAuley, Tom Shannon, Kimberly Bulluck, Cecily Watson, Eleanor Brown, Tonia Grooms.

Stacks of books! Tons of homework! Meetings every- day! Too much thinking! The-re's no way out! This is the desperate situation of typical juniors, especially those who find themselves involved in everything possible. The ju- nior year of high school is con- sidered the hardest year, and it is definitely the year with the heaviest academic work load. It was especially hard to keep up with the work in my after- noon classes during soccer season, but I managed to make it, junior Tim Crawley said. Afternoons were no longer time for extra-curricular acti- vitiesg instead homework had to be started immediately in order to get finished.

Maybe Sta- tus? Maybe What was it about a senior guy that made sophomore girls go crazy? There was something about a senior guy that, as in every year gone by, infatuated sophomore girls. Using a special built-in radar, female sophs quickly scanned the halls in Search of their prey. Many held on to the dream of being asked to the prom, out on that special date, or even being walked to class by a senior. Resentment even built up in the underclassrnen as the fa- vored boys of the sophomore and junior classes just didn't have the same impact on the ladies. Whatever caused the tradi- tion still held strong. --- Alicia Iohnson -'1 Bobb Hathaway Charlie Henderson Ronald Henderson Dustin Henning David Herman Kristi Herring Danita Hicks Iulie Hicks Melissa Hicks Miriam Hicks Denise Hig s Camille Hii Charlie Hinton Dean Hobbs Iohn Hohgood Kristin Holding Dean Holmes Tamm Hooker Michellie Hopkins Sonya Horne Tony Horne Anthony Horton Kim Horton Stacey Horton Brenda Howell Tony Howell Deronica Hudson Angela Hunter Wilbert Hunter Denise Hussey Tony Iacobs Arie Iames Clement Lay Iames Io nson Iohnny Iohnson Linda Iohnson Maggie Iohnson Ralp fohnson ' lay lvl ey ' Candy Iones Sophomores f 87 Sophomores David Iones Falice Iones Felishcia Iones Gilbert Iones Ienelle Iones Melissa Iones Paulette Iones Randolph Iones Shawn Ioyce Charles Ioyner Crystal Ioyner David Ioyner Everard Ioyner Felicia Ioyner Karen Ioyner Loretta Ioyher Tony Ioyner Rahman Karim Leo Kearney Mitch Keen Pat Kelly Steve Key Robbie Kibbe Elizabeth Kilgore Ioel Kirkham Winston Kirtz Andre Knight Iennifer Kobielnik Sunny Kumar Rodney Lamm Ruth Lane David Lawrence Rod Lawrence Iackie Leggett Sterline Lewis Tara Linder Tracey Lindsey Stephen Livesay Scottie Lloyd Lorenza Lodge Michelle Low Bill Lump Mark Lyncli Angie Mabry Beverly Mangum Renea Manning Tim Manning Pacquin McClain Robert McClain Rodney McClain Tecia McClain Amy McCurdy Ann McDonald Monica McDuftie Dwayne McElory Crystal McKnight Sumora Mercer Renee Metcalf Robin Michale India Miller Craig Ming Dianna Minnick Wendy Minor Lisa Miskelley Ellen Monahan Aja Moody Darlene Moore Kristie Moore Marvin Moore Tina Moore Iimmy Mooring Willie Morris Iohnny Moses Terry Moss Sarah Mullen Scott Naccarato Marsha Neal Charles Nelson Louis Nettles Ellis Neville W3 4 Ri' , I- . , ,. ., - asia, -5 f?

The sopho- mores, who had nev- er seen a tapping, sat staring as the president read out the names of the new members. The juniors, who had seen the tapping the previous year, sat hop- ing that one of the members would stop by their row and call their names. Parents, who had been secretly con- tacted and told that their son or daughter was to become a new member, sat in the back row of the auditorium to proudly watch as their child accepted the candle and went to the stage to take the oath. It was a time for happiness, rejoicing and amaze- ment for the junior who had made the Na- tional Honor Society. Being a member of the National Honor Society has its rewards. It gives me a feel- ing of pride, honor, and dignity. It's the type of recognition that makes you feel good about the school, senior jewel Sharpe said. .f . The juniors who did not make the Honor Society had a chance to be tapped in the spring of their senior year, providing they met the qualifications. In order to qualify for membership in the society, a student must have a high grade point average and exhibit leadership qual- ities, character, academic excellence and be involved in extra-curricular activities. The Wita Bond Chapter of the National Honor Society's main purpose was to help others in and around the community. They helped set up the blood mobile units for the Red Cross, sponsored scholarships and helped the House and Grounds Commit- tee. 'il am really happy to be a part of the National Honor Society. We do a lot for the school and for the community, and we have all become closer friends because of it. It is really a lot of fun! senior Kim Courtney said. The National Honor Society met every second and fourth Wednesday of each month. Also attending these meetings reg- ularly were the advisers, Mrs. Elizabeth Hardy and Mrs. Suzanne Sifford, who served as the backbone of the organization. 1-ll-Lee Wimberley -l- A day of roller skating at Sportsworld finds National Honor Society adviser Elizabeth Hardy requiring assistance from an employee. j National Honor Society S 97 .39 Gaining a new experience W ee,w , The two language Learning clubs at Rocky about Mount Senior High the different arethe French and - Latin clubs.

Members devoted the first half of the year to individual paintings, and the second half to a joint effort in designing silk screens for shirts for the various other clubs around campus. Creative input by the Art club members was also used in formulating ideas for social events and functions that the student body partici- pated in. Field trips to Washington, D.C. were part of the educational phase de- signed to teach the members the import- ance of modern art and art history. lt's a great feeling to be a part of an organization that enables you to think fast, and to solve the problems of designf' ju- nior Ierome Pittman concluded. - lim Horton -i- 107 - Phalanx 1 Art Club Building a career The Rocky Mount Se- nior High chapter of Health Occupations Students of America worked to define its purpose by developing volunteer programs that extended into the com- munity. Throughout the year, each of the members of HOSA worked on spe- cial projects to help locally and nationally. t'Our national project is to work with the Kidney Foundation, and locally we assist the Red Cross. In the past years we have worked for diabetes, epilepsy, and muscu- lar distrophy. We try to sponsor one major service group for two yearsg that way we can really help them, adviser Margie Brantley said. HOSA held its meetings the last Thurs- day of each month, following parliamen- tary procedure.

On November 5, some of the members of HOSA went to a leadership workshop at Vanceboro Community College in Hender- son, North Carolina. There were speakers, demonstrations, and a sharing time to get to know each other. HOSA is a great club to be involved in. It gives me a chance to work with different people and to exchange ideas. It also helps me learn more about nursing, my future occupation, senior Betty Barfield said. This year our theme is 'Dreams of today are realities of tomorrowf We all have dreams, and working with HOSA helps us achieve them, senior Rhonda O'Berry said.

Patience and responsibility were the key words used when referred to these people, yet chaos and confusion were often used, too. One morning when I was on my way to school, my bus ran out of gas, and I had to walk to school, senior Charles Williams said. The assistants also helped the school more efficiently. The office was an impor- tant position in the school. They typed the absentee bulletins, answered phones, filed, and checked students in and out of school. Being an office assistant gives me the opportunity to show others how responsi- ble I am, senior Dawn Turnley said. Rocky Mount Senior High also had va- rious other assistants such as: guidance aides, nurses' aides, library aides, assistant principals' aides, and teachers' aides.

The Hi-Noc-Ar staff thrived on the chal- lenges they encountered in the year. Being on the staff is a lot of fun, but you have to be ready to work at all times, se- nior Cindy Wise said. Not only did members master the tech- nicalities of yearbook journalism, but they also expanded their creativity and imagi- nation. All of this is achieved under the leadership of the adviser, Mrs. Debra Kin- cheloe, who instilled in the staff that in- dustriousness and ingenuity result in suc- cess. People do not realize how much time and hard work goes into building a year- book, editor Sandy Roberson said. The work that goes into a yearbook seems to be never ending, but the relief of finishing a spread and knowing you did it is worth the effort.

Being on the staff has been a know- ledgeable and very rewarding experi- ence, editor jake Parrott said. The paper depends on everybody's doing his part, said managing editor Eliz- abeth Cooper. The staff consisted of photographers, writers, organizers, and artists. The paper could not be published without the coop- eration of everyone completing his job to the best of his ability, whether it be in writ- ing or creating a layout. Most people think writing is the most important quality, but creative layouts are just as important because a layout is what first catches a reader's eye, said Elizabeth Cooper. The Gryphon won All Southern at the SIPA Convention in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina last March. All Southern is the highest award given to a high school pub- lication. Sometimes it doesn't seem worth itg all the last minute problems, the layouts that just don't fit, and the tempers that always seem to break when the going really gets tough, but when the paper finally comes out, that feeling of pride rising out of the pit of your stomach gives you an overall glow- ing and makes it all worth it and more, senior Rainey Astin said. . .iAlicia Iohnson il.

When a student enters high school, he often finds cliques around school. These were such students who have been through times, both happy and sad, who have shared tears over disappointing situations, and who have rejoiced in the thrill of victo- ry. I guess you could say the marching Gryphons are one of the biggest cliques at Senior High, senior Cindy Williams said. Whatever they were, the marching Gryphons made history. Invited to play for the inauguration of President Ronald Reagan as well as for that of Governor jim Martin, the band kept the buses rolling. The band boosters and citizens and businesses of Rocky Mount footed the bill. Although they did travel to Washington, D.C., Mother Nature kept them from march- ing in the parade. Sub-zero temperatures and a wind chill factor of 60 degrees below forced the cancellation of the Inaugural Pa- rade. Students did get to see the President and Mrs. Reagan in a special ceremony.

We grew with new knowledge and experience as we 122-A d learned. We were becom- ing adults. Room to room and sub- ject to subject, we went. Our teachers watched us and learned from us as we learned from them. Together, we all worked.

We all dealt with change in separate ways The differences that came about because of school had an importance of their own. The work we did to accommodate the academic side of life provided us with a sense of accom- plishment and pride.

Every person keeps a dream in his mind and works to acquire his aspira- tion. A good education helps pave the way to a successful life. The hard work of students and teachers alike make the American Dream more attain- able. The American economy is :based on the free-enterprise system. Many courses taught students to understand this system and use it to their advantage. Basic Business . gave a comprehensive study of finance. In late October, lSamuel Gray, Director of Hu- man Relations for the City of Rocky Mount, spoke to the class. The semester course, Amer- ican Economy, used one nine weeks for studying Amer- ican economic principles and the other nine weeks for role- playing. Students assumed economic identities to learn about budgeting and surviving on their own. Deciding how to spend money happens to be a prob- lem many newly independent people have to face. A few elective courses made this task easier. Home Ec 12 and Con- sumer Education and Manage- ment provide examples of such classes. These classes taught budgeting, money man- agement and other survival needs. Achieving the American Dream may be difficult, but it has yet to become an impossi- D LancasterlParks ble task. For the past two years, the marching band has proven this. Over 150 determined, well-drilled band students went out on a football field that November, performed to the best of their ability, and won.

A variety of electives were offered and, students selected from these. Vocational courses gave stu- dents a chance to work with their hands and to learn new abilities. Classes like cabinet making gave students very useful skills that could be used during a lifetime. Trade and industrial education classes often occurred in two levels. The first offered basic understanding and skills while the second further de- veloped abilities for the field. My auto mechanics class has helped me a lot.

These courses enabled the stu- dents of Rocky Mount Senior High to pursue their interests not only in the area of academics but in practical courses, also. Many types of educational programs enabled the students to gain on-the-job training while also earning a grade. Blueprint reading is an ex- cellent careeer opportunity and I really learned a lot. It will also help me with my future occupation, architecture, se- nior Brad Batchelor said. The need for basic mainte- nance skills has become im- perative in today's world. With wages ranging from ten to twenty dollars an hour for ser- vices such as auto repair, elec- tronics, and bricklaying, stu- dents had nothing to lose by taking one of these courses. Many business courses en- abled the students to also fur- ther their education in the work- ing world. Accounting will help me not only if I decide to work in an office, but it will help me with my own finances, senior Donna Bazzle said. I really have learned a lot in typing, just little things like how to type tables or para- graphs. I think it will be helpful when I go off to school next year, senior Dawn Turnley said. I took business law because I plan on majoring in criminal justice in college, and I thought it would be a great way to find out more about my future field of study, senior Kimberly Bul- luck said.

They stayed home on weekends grading students' tests, making out tests, or simply just planning a lesson for the next day. In Social Studies there is a continuous stream of essays and homework being returned to me. It is necessary to return papers, too, but at the same time keep on moving . . his- tory teacher Mrs. Fuerst said. Many teachers could not do all their work during their planning periods so they did it during lunch and at home. Meanwhile, there were still students who did not do their homework at all, and usually they remained in the same grade the following year. Melody Williams M . .

Distributive Education offered stu- dents a chance to study fashion mer- chandising, marketing, marketing and merchandising, salesmanship, and advertising. The students picked the course of study that they were in- terested in. Not only did they receive class instruction, but they also got a job that was related to the field in which they were interested. I got involved in DE for the excel- lent experience 1 would get and be- cause it was something I was in- terested in and I knew I would enjoy it, said senior DE member Angela Franklin. Industrial Cooperative Training, a two-hour class, offered classroom in- struction with work experience. Mr. Watkins worked with each student in order to prepare an individual training plan and then select appropriate mate- rials based on the students' occupa- tion. I got involved in ICT because I thought it would be a good experience, a challenge, and something I would really enjoy, said junior Georette Williams. Office occupations was another course that involved after-school jobs as well as class training. An after- school job was not required for the class, but if the students did have a job, they got an extra unit of credit. The class is fun and interesting. I am planning to go into the office occupations field after high school so the class is really helping me a great deal, said senior Rachelle Metcalf, The class helped with the magazine sale.

Hicks 142 - Academics f fe, Higmezqs, , s Walkerfharks sm N Will Making hurried notes esearch, research, and more re- search Students spent hours at local libraries investi- gating topics for term papers, essays, and other various writ- ings. Between choosing a sub- ject and copying a final draft, taking notes was probably the most time-consuming step in the entire process. Once a topic was chosen, narrowed down, and approved, sources had to be hunted. Sometimes a book sat on a shelf at home, but more often the material lay in a back corner of the library basement. With larger projects like term papers, students carried stacks of resources home to use. Of course the family set of ency- clopedias still got put to use as students looked for a general idea or fact for their papers. One of the most disappoint- ing occurences in doing re- search must have been the huge, promising volume that a person simply knew had a lot of information. After being lugged home, that volume turned out to have only one fact pertaining to the topic. Or even worse, the book did not have an index. A student spent hours skimming through hun- dreds of pages looking for notes. Ways of collecting notes dif- fered from student to student. One technique consisted of copying sentences and para- graphs directly from a re- source. jotting down phrases and words allowed students a quicker way to take notes. Some books were filled with pencilled-in notes long the margins, underlined or high- lighted material, and dog- eared pages. I always highlight. My book is a multi-colored rain- bow, said junior Holly . ,vi .4 Lancaster!Parks Daniel. Of course, many teachers re- quired that notes be written on 3x5 index cards. That method helped to lower disorganiza- tion. Once students finished all the research of a topic, they usually took a quick breath of relief and started working on an outline. Outlines organized information for one of the final steps in doing a paper, writing. Rough draft followed rough draft as students worked to- wards the final copy. All of the time spent collecting notes seemed to pay off. Last year, I was stuck in the library trying to put informa- tion on those little index cards so long that I forgot what the outside world was likef, said senior Debby Dixon. Melinda Everett li Gathering sources for research, senior joe Register pulls a book from the reference section.

Academics - 143 Filling in . . . the gaps cademics has always played an important part in the build- ing of a high school student into a young adult. The state school board decided a tougher curriculum would benefit the student as well as the community and produce a more rounded high school graduate. The graduation requirements changed from 18 units to 20 units beginning with the class of 1986. The addition of an ex- tra unit of mathematics and so- cial sciences completed the new curriculum. The lack of knowledge that many high school graduates have in these areas has contributed greatly to the changes in these poli- cies. Though several changes took place in the number of units required to graduate, some things will never change, such as the requirement of four units of English in order to re- ceive a diploma. Every student is required to take one unit of English each year. English is important because a student needs to be able to speak and write complete sentences and present himself so he does not appear uneducated. Reading, writing, speaking, and listen- ing are essential in our world, English teacher Ann Ruggiero said. A student needs to be able to communicate and under- stand the English language, English teacher Betty Hardy said. Students applying to col- leges may have found it diffi- cult to meet the requirements in the past, but hopefully with these additions this will no longer hold true. Most colleges require a registering student to have 4 units of English, 3 units of mathematics, 2 units of sci- ence, 2 units of social sciences, and 2 units of foreign lan- guage. By adding 2 units of re- quired academic courses, stu- dents will limit the number of electives that they are able to participate in. Sometimes there was so much to choose from, I didn't know which courses to take, but I think over all, the tough- est academic courses have ben- efited me the most, senior lake Parrott said.

Some students checked out books, stashed them in their lockers, or left them at homeg and some threw them in the trunk of their car until the end of school. Then 146 - Academics they hoped for a fine-free day before exams, in order to avoid large fines. Computer programming stu- dents had a different way of checking it out. They had to write a program full of com- mands and hope everything fell into place, since all phases of a program depended on each other. When I check out a pro- gram I feel bad because they are usually wrong when I write them, junior Steve Settle- myre said. The computer usually tells me in which line the error is, but it does not tell me how to write it correctly, sophomore Candace Jones said. The Health Occupations class was taught how to check it out, too. They checked heart rates to see if the heart was beating correctly. They checked blood pressure to see if it were high, low, or normal. This class was helpful to students who were interested in the medical field. As a volunteer project, the Health Occupations class helped the Red Cross when it came to Senior High. Health Occupations students checked the temperature, and pulse. But checking blood pressure was a little more difficult and a little bit more serious. Melody Williams . f' is , nv' gl K if wg l l ' J '-'Q'- '12f:' if f f A Q W .

Because these courses offered extra benefits to the students who took them, they required dedi- cation, motivation, determina- tion, and just plain hard work. They were more than just another course. Daily participation in such classes as art, drama, foreign language, or journalism had the ability to influence stu- dents in ways that may have an effect upon their future, as well as provide an outlet for creativity.

In these courses, stu- dents learned to key in infor- mation other than grades, such as students' names, addresses, and phone numbers. They also made schedule changes and distributed them throughout the school. Some program- ming students designed pro- grams to help the school run more efficiently.

These courses gave the student a firm sense of accomplishment. Students in Art I started out by learning the tricks of the trade and by putting them into action.

Several students could not rush home. Those were the students involved in activities such as Distributive Education and Industrial Cooperative Training. DE and ICT students had already left before 3:10 in order to reach their after- school jobs. Students in those courses were required to work 15 hours a week for at least 30 weeks at an after-school job that would prepare them for the working world. Students involved in jour- nalism had to work many hours after the 3:10 bell, too. The students had to work as long as it took to meet their final deadlines. Failure to do so could have caused the newspaper to come out late or the yearbook to come out in Iuly. Band members worked un- countable hours after school. In order to be number one, band members worked extra hours. If it were 1100 or -300, the marching Gryphons marched together up and down the field as many times as it took to reach perfection. Band is a great organiza- tion. You learn discipline and how to get along with others. These qualities and others, like talent and the will to work towards one goal, help put forth a great show. Band takes up a great deal of time, but it also helps you to learn to budget your time so you can do your homework and practice, also. The giving up of your time to practice pays off when we march on the field to com- pete. The competition is tough, but it feels great to be a winner, senior band member Katherine Wiggins said. All students in one of these courses were all willing to work hard and long hours, even if it demanded after- school hours, just to achieve perfection. Why did they do it? Why were they willing to work so hard for a course that was not even required? It was not because they were crazyg it was because they enjoyed a challenge. They were all in- terested in achieving a feeling of accomplishment.

The Gryphs also managed to break into the state polls for the first time since 1983. Baseball also kept its form as the Gryphs cruised to the second round of the state play- offs only to be beaten by the future state champions Rich- land Co. The wrestling team proved themselves the best in the conference by taking the team championship from Wil- son Fike. lt was the basketball team that broke with tradition. Plagued with disciplinary prob- lems and academic probations, the varsity basketball team suf- fered through a dismal season.

We surprised everyone by tying for the conference Their potent offensive attack, based on an explosive ground game and balanced passing, averaged more than thirty points per game. On the ground, freshman Steve Ricks kept the opponents' defense off balance by rushing for over 100 yards in each game. Freshman quarter- back Lee Bullock hooked up with ju- nior wide receiver Keith Moore for long gains and key scores. Although the outlook for success was not very optimistic at the beginning of the season, the IV Gryphs came very close to going undefeated. Their two losses were each by less than a touchdown. We sur- prised everyone by tying for the conference championship, sophomore Iohn Coley said. Carmen Coley-. . - Iohn Coley IV Football - 185 Gryphs plagued with lack of height I know it's been said before, but the lack of height hurt us, Coach Gerald Gosten said.

The Gryphons posted a 24-16 record but finished higher ll in conference stand- ings than predicted before the season. They thought we'd be last, but at least we beat Rose and Hunt twice, senior Terrance Dickens said. The Gryphons played without senior Ernie Griffin until second semester be- cause of academic ineligibility.

Griffin dominated the boards and be- came an inside threat offensively and defensively to other teams.

Well, where did the sterotype come from? Certainly not from Senior High. The twelve girls who made up the varsity cheerleading squad were far from airheaded and pampered. It took brains as well as nerves to whip out all those pep rallies, skit ideas, chants, cheers and dar- ing, crowd-catching stunts. The hardest part of being a cheerleader is facing a bored, listless audience. The best part is watching the crowd get fired up, said junior Rebecca Garrison. Throughout all the long practices, numer- ous games and extra activities, the girls remained good friends and experienced the joys of working together as a team. We got along very well and I became a lot closer to the members of thesquadj, said junior Kim Bunn. The squad always stayed up, ready to cheer the Gryphs on to victory.

Walker Cheerleading - 199 Tough and built to stay that way The wrestling Gryphs experienced another successful year. Becoming a great wrestler means many hard hours of prac- tice, working to increase your strength and maneuver new moves while skipping meals to enable yourself to stay at your weight class, junior David Livingston Sgjd, Becoming a great wrestler Meeting weight means many hard hours of prac- class was a vital fac- tice I i I tor to the wrestling - David Livingston team this year. We would have gone un- defeated if we had not experienced prob- lems with meeting weight class and obedi- ence, senior Matthew Westcott said. These problems were overcome by the time they went to the conference tourna- ments. The wrestling Gryphs won the con- ference tournament. Seniors Mike Webb, jerome Bulluck, and junior Cedric Mercer took first place in their individual weight classes. junior john Sharpe and sopho- more Marcel Wallace took second place in their individual weight classes. junior Otis Saunders took third place in his individual weight class. Senior Matthew Westcott and junior David Livingston took fourth place in their individual weight class. The fol- lowing weekend sectionals were held. juniors jeff Smith and john Sharpe, won second place. Senior Mike Webb and junior Cedric Mercer won third place. Senior jerome Bulluck won fourth place. The next weekend only one wrestler advanced. Senior Mike Webb placed fourth and advanced to state. He who loses, can at least say he tried. The loser may sulk, the winner shows pride. The loser's lost may not be known. After wrestling that hard, good sports- manship should be known, junior Ron Henderson said.

Good- sell, a 185-pound se- nior, would like to be a body builder in his near future. Goodsell's routine consists of workouts six days a week for one and a half hours a day. Each day, Goodsell alternates working out with his arms, chest, and legs on a daily basis. Tim uses weight lifting to fill the void left by the many team sports he used to play. Tim has become so successful in his hob- by that he conspires to compete in the Mr. Teen contest. 'I like weight lifting because success de- pends entirely on me, senior Tim Good- sell said. --ii Sandy Roberson ----1- ' 'I got my horse in 1 9 8 2 only after my par- ents real- . ized that I wasn't going to l o s e m y interest in horses, junior Dana Fortenbery said. Ms. Fortenbery had been riding horses for eight years when she received Pzaaz, her Ara- bian horse. The purchase of Pzaaz was rather quick and I found it hard to like him. Our relationship hadn't devloped yet, Fortenbery said. My devotion to horses has caused me to give up many of the things that most girls my age do. For example, I have given up Sub-Debs and even two prom invitations due to horse shows, Ms. Fortenbery said. The hours that I spend conditioning Pzaaz both inside and out could not be traded for the finest guy at RMSH, she added. The team of Pzaaz and Fortenbery have won the Virginia State Arabian Western junior Exhibition, the N.C. State Fair Re- served Champion Arabian Western Amateur, the All Arabian show Reserved Champion, Arabian Western junior Ex- hibition, Champion junior Exhibitor NCAHSA Reserve Champion High Point 202 - Individual Sports Showmanship for Class A Shows, NCAHSA Champion High Point Arabian Western for Local Shows, and the Gallant Storm Western Arabian Challenge Trophy. My most meaningful win was the Wayne Hawkins Memorial Trophy. Pzaaz was owned by the Wayne Hawkins family be- fore I bought him and Pzaaz had never won the trophy until this year, junior Dana Fortenbery said. -l Sandy Roberson l-11 My first year ever playing football was in the ninth grade. I spent two years on the varsity. In retrospect, my most memorable game was my eleventh grade year when we played Northern and I received the MVP award, senior Greg Ioyner said. At 6'2 and 220 pounds, Greg joyner managed to grab 49 solo tackles while mak- ing 21 assists. Greg also made both All- conference and All-area teams. joyner was heavily recruited but chose to stay close to home and play for Appalachian State. I chose Appalachian because of their academic program and the overall atmos- phere, senior Greg joyner said. In addition to playing football, Ioyner also ran track for the school. ---- Sandy Roberson Qi...- Senior Michael Doyle was selected to the all state roster after having an outstanding season this year. At 6'1 and weighing 185, Doyle made 44 tackles and 22 assists - good enough for all conference and all-area honors. Doyle rounded out his season with 5 interceptions and 17 receptions for 350 yards. Doyle plans to go to State where he adds he may walk on. According to Doyle his decision will de- pend on his perfor- mance in the East- West all star game to be played in july. Doyle was selected to the roster after being selected to the all state roster. I was honored to say the least, Doyle said. I was just lucky to be at the right place at the right time with a good team to make me look that much better, he added. I like to think of myself as a well rounded person -- Grades mean a lot to me, the all-state se- nior said. I plan to major in business nick, and psychology at State so my grades have to be there, Doyle said. I grew up in a house where academics was stressed and not athletics, so I really taught myself the basics in sports while learning the need to succeed in school, Doyle added. 1-1 Sandy Roberson ---'i- - N.

H e e n .f tered his first tour- nament in A u g u s t , 1983 and won the Men's Novice and Iuniors 18 and under competition. Powell was then intro- duced to Bobby Little, state champion of 1984, who became his coach. Bobby helped me work on better, more accurate shots, Powell said. Little also encouraged Powell and his sister to enter state sanc- tioned tournaments. Powell has placed in many tournaments in Men's C, Men's D, Men's Novice, Iuniors 18 and under, and Iunior's 16 and under. He will be going to the state championship tour- nament to be held in Charlotte. Powell is sponsored and sup- ported by the Nauti- lus Fitness Center. -1 Carmen Coley L Karate is basical- ly a mental sport that requires self disci- pline and concentra- tion, senior George Brown said. Brown became interested in karate last year after reading books on the subject and talking to an instructor at a lo- cal fitness center. A year's work has pro- duced a green top belt for George. Although karate doesn't take a lot of physical ability, I left weights and run to help my discipline. senior George Brown said. H1ckslParks Sophomore Iohn Coley placed fourth in the overall competition at the 1984 North Carolina Hunter Safety Shooting Tourna- ment. Over 800 students from 82 public and private schools competed in archery, riflery, and skeet shooting. Coley tied for first place in skeet shoot- ing with a perfect score of 200. He led his team to a seventh place overall finish. In 1983, Coley finished fifth in the state, and his team took second place honors. Be- cause Rocky Mount Senior High does not have a shooting team, Coley no longer com- petes, but he is still an avid hunter. My involvement with the shooting team came from my love for hunting, Coley said. -1i-- Carmen Coley ---l Senior Mona Powell is currently ranked first in the state in Women's juniors 16 and under Racquetball. She started playing ra- quetball about a year ago and has taken lessons from Bobby Little, the number one player in the state. Powell has placed in fifteen tournaments across the state, in- - Carmen Coley - cluding first place awards in Women's B, Women's C, Women's Novice, and 18 and under competitions. My parents have really supported me. Without them being at the tournaments, I never could have reached my goals, Powell said. Her goal now is to be first in the state in the Women's Open division. -- Carmen Coley - . no ' 'Fi - fi - Well, my father played high school ten- nis and I guess that's how I got interested in tennis, sophomore Thomas Tanner said. At 5'3 the high school junior has been playing tennis since the age of eight. Nine years of competitve tennis has been good to Thomas as he is currently ranked third in his division in North Carolina. Tanner is also ranked twenty-ninth in the Southern Tennis Association. This summer I had the opportunity to tour in Europe. I toured for five weeks in Germany, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Holland, and Au- stria, Tanner said. My most memorable experience was being able to play in the Junior Orange Bowl, Tanner said. I have also been able to play in tournaments in Florida, Washington, and Tennessee, he added. --l Sandy Roberson ------ Individual Sports - 203 Rocky Mount Chamber Choir under The Rocky Mount Connection uring 1984-1985 Rocky Mount pros- pered. With the addition of the new mall, Station Square, the downtown community re- ceived a new look. Perfor- mances in the Christmas Pa- rade and the Down East Fes- tival also added to the atmosphere of new life. Area businesses also con- tributed to the progress of the community. Hardee's made donations to the Mar- ching Band while Mama Iean's provided funds for the Hi-Noc-Ar and at the same time provided free meals for the football team. Guardian Care and Westgate Nursing continued to care for the elderly and disabled. Stony Creek Rescue Squad, in cooperation with area hos- pitals, worked to aid the health of the community. The new road connecting Sunset and 301 helped many businesses prosper and pro- vided easy access to businesses in the area. Cultural attractions such as the Children's Museum, the Community Band, Tank The- ater, Braswell Library, and the many parks added appeal to the community. In addition to cultural attrac- tions were community orga- nizations such as the Rotary Club, the Elks Club, and the Kiwanis Club. Boy and Girl Scouts, as well as members of the Iaycees, also provided services for the community. Throughout the years area businesses and organiza- tions have contributed to the welfare of the community. --l-- Larry Lancaster ---- performs its annual spring concert Evfwf-lllj Si v 'Wy-30,4 g -ful' P3010 MW!

An integral part of preparing for graduation, senior Keith Horton has his head measured by Mr. Warren. Enloying a spot of tea seems a bit out of place for junior David Livingston, and seniors Cindy Wise, Sandy Roberson, and Lou Ann Oakly. Mp. Inside out nother year, another class, another graduation - the ' cycle goes on. This year was special in its own way. It was . . . an inside-out year. Memories of decorating a Christ- mas tree in shorts, seeing our band in the National for the second year, hav- ing a woman run for vice president, remembering to go to first period be- fore homeroom, and having co- principals, when woven together, be- came an odd sort of fabric with our own special design. Our winter had us dripping with perspiration until only a few weeks after Christmas when temperatures dropped to sub-zero levels. From summer to winter in a week provided quite an interesting change causing mixed-up reactions. Our bright aspirations for the year faded as the year came to a close. But like a faded pair of jeans that became more favored with time, our school year was logged into memory pro- vided food for nostalgia.
