Its direction and course are shaped by ourselves and all that we hold to be true. We seek out the weak and strong points of those who have gone before us and then rebuild and rechannel their ideas to meet our changing times. Each seeks to express his own opinions and then moves out into a streamlined, fast-paced world to deal with life in his own way. In 1976 the new 55-mile-per-hour speed law slowed down not only our driving speed but our lifestyles as well. As we traveled our roads, we took time to better know our country in its 200th year and more importantly, our- selves. -- ■ ■ « V ' 1. « Opening • 5 he slowed “Men may be hemmed in geographically, but every generation stands on the frontiers of the mind.” — M.

More and more students left Rolla to live on their own during the summers and breaks. evertheless, school brought us home again, and from Hillcrest to downtown, the Friday night “cruise” strip to the surrounding foothills, Rolla became the focal point of our years and activities. 8’Opening the monotony of school days and gave'way to expressions of self awareness. “Breaker, Breaker, Convoy” rolled up 1-44 and hit the charts for weeks, ten-four! Shorter skirts were replaced by more practical lengths, and comfortable became the trend in fashion footwear. Jewelry went in and out again with “mood” rings and turquoise and puka shell necklaces worn by guys and girls alike. From silk shirts to feathered hair, no longer did the designers dictate styles as students set their own fashion news. Diet, the “Hustle, and throw- ing peanut butter balls were the things to do and jeans and overalls still the things to wear.

Be it skipping out on a warm spring afternoon or club initiations, traditions remained a part of the RHS scene. 12 Opening he carefree days of summer gave way to a brilliant fall. With the onset of mounting activities and responsibilities, winter crept into the picture. Seniors anxiously awaited the spring and graduation, putting behind them three years, twelve quarters, three Christmas holidays and two summers. Everyone experienced the wonders of the Missouri foothills in whose changing faces were clearly depicted the passing days. Each year, each month, each day seemed to pass more swiftly than the previous ones. L±lJ eritage '76 — this was the year that Rolla High saw Rolla growing and expanding to meet her needs. Views broadened and new businesses became a vital part of her commerce. McDonald’s was a new attraction in December and became a regular stopping place for students. The completion of the 1 Oth Street overpass brought increased traffic to the high school cam- pus, and the “crossing lady was introduced to remedy the pedestrian cross- ing problem. Mysterious disappearances and kidnappings filled the news as “Interroga- tion and Investigation became the key words on the national scene. Stu- dents became involved in the upcoming election and also joined in efforts to celebrate the country's 200th birthday. Even though nuclear detente and inflation were ever present and discussed, it was a time for looking ahead to new horizons. Flershei; „ shr 1 ' ? eritage '76, a road of renewal, change and revolution. It was made up of all the direc- tions we took, all the answers we sought.

Now we look to the future, basing our values and beliefs on the trials and errors of our past. We have developed our own standards that will prevail for our lifetimes. We have set our goals, aiming for a dream, reaching out to grasp our new roles.

V V ' A Life’s Seasons There's a season for beginnings when the world is fresh and new, when we shape our dreams of all the things we plan and hope to do, A season for maturing when we think and work and grow. And a season for the har- vesting of all we've come to know. And each successive season grows still richer than the last as treasures of the present add to memories of the past. — Karen Ravn 18 • Sculptors of Our Future A sculptor once with Chisel in hand set out to sculpt a Rock of the land. His heart and talent designed that Stone. Then He left, but one day did return. And alas! He found Sun, Rain and Wind had glorified what was done by Him. like the sculptor, each teacher of RHS set out to develop their students. Theirs was not to make a person, but rather to lay the groundwork, design the blue prints and or paint to back- ground with the learning process. It was then the individual person would emerge, ready to be shaped by his own hands. 1. Faculty, janitors, administrators and students seem engrossed in an assembly. 2.

(6) 20 • Academics (2) U, here was an atmosphere of closeness within RHS that could be found in few other school systems of its size. Here, most teachers climbed down from their inhuman pedestals, proving that they did pos- sess emotions, intelligence, skills and other “people characteristics. The students dis- carded their antique roles as receptacles — containers existing only to be filled with knowl- edge — and became young adults who deserved recognition. Friendship began to bud as teachers became club sponsors — and got involved. Before school and at lunch, students piled into various classrooms to just sit and chat with friends — and the teachers. Coaches became the ath- letes’ best friends. And when Spirit Week came along, many of the teachers joined right in with crazy hats, blue clothing and hillbilly attire. Mrs. Susan Chamberlain summed up school life by saying, “Teaching means sharing; shar- ing good days and bad days, happiness and depression, accomplishment and frustration. Teachers and students share the same feelings in the same class. Some days a student's cheer- fulness can brighten a teacher's day, just as an enthusiastic class session or a good grade can 'make the day’ for a student. Academics • 21 igger and better pathways were traveled by the communica- tion skills department in 1976. Making the schedule were such unusuals as Bible as Literature, Faster Reading, Poetry and Popular Song, Remedial Reading and others, with the trend away from book English. Foreign languages ran basically the same road as in years before, with minor deviations. The French room still echoed with “C'est une bonne idee, Latin classes sat around munching ancient morsels of delight and the German room was once again occupied by Gummy Bears. And the learning process was forever present. Speech and drama classes were as productive as ever, with many students receiving honors in both categories. The communications courses were creative because students learned to express themselves on stage, before the camera and on paper, and practical because effective communication is vital, Jennifer Ailor, journalism teacher, said. 1 A (5) 1.

While this teacher was waiting patiently amid the confusion, a voice from out of the noise yelled at him, ‘Hey, Mr. ___________, do you got good grammar?'

Helping peo- ple help themselves through their own efforts, taking time to listen, learning from previous experiences and becoming involved. Art Smith — Speech, Radio and TV, Debate It means a personal committment to being involved with helping kids discover themselves and life. Lola Howe — Reading I have always regarded teaching as an opportunity to work with students and to help them grow in knowledge. “The bells rang and I ushered my first hour class to the south hall and prepared for the tornado drill. I even sent Coach O'neal's class to the basement. Suddenly I heard a disgusted voice say, 'Mam, this is a fire drill.' Renee Ross — Drama, Speech “It can be pure hell ... or you can have the time of your life. It's long hours grading papers, making out tests, grades, passes, tardies, excuses, lists and deficiency notices. It's also being greeted by a bevy of students at your door each morning, learning of their passionate but brief love affairs, becoming the victim of practical jokes and jumping the gen- eration gap to firm friendships. Teaching is giving your all in the hope that the eyes of your charges will be opened to new horizons and finding your own blindness dissolved in the process. Jennifer Ailor — Journalism, Publications Peggy Croom — French In teaching a foreign language the whole approach had changed from just translation to include also speaking and comprehension. Eva Penico — German It is the most interesting, challeng- ing and rewarding profession that there is. It links the past with the future, analyzing the past and giv- ing meaningful direction to the future. Nancy Beveridge — Latin, Word Study, Mythology Teaching means helping students in learning to think and write, to appre- ciate other cultures, to find out about what great and interesting things have happened in the past. Communications-Longuoges • 25 1 here are paths to the future and paths to the past. The world of social sciences at RHS delved into both. With such classes as Colonial American History and Winning the West, students backtracked into a concentrated study of American history. In the fine arts field, both art and craft classes produced exceptional results. Talent also abounded in RHS's musical quarters. Band, choir and symphonic band, among others, revealed the excellence which comes only from diligent work and above-average instruction. The social studies department probably offers a greater variety of courses than many colleges. The teachers volunteer to teach a new course and if the course is approved the students decide whether it will be taught or not by their enroll- ments. Thus there is a continuous rich variety of courses offered by a lively staff of varying temp- eraments and styles which hopefully accommo- dates all students at RHS, Mrs. Peg Bobbitt, department head, said.

In the last analysis, there is no free lunch, and the only valuable learning which takes place is when the student is giving something.

Students learned everything from shorthand and typing to sewing and power mechanics. With an offering of 24 courses, practical arts had one of the most varied selection of classes at RHS. Its purpose was to give students immediate training in vocational skills. Mr. Charles Marcott, head of industrial arts, commented, “We have approximately 175 high school students in the shop classes alone. We're letting students explore the areas that might be in their vocational inter- ests. Many students excelled in their special fields and went on to win awards — as well as getting a start on their life-time careers. Practical arts were appreciated by most stu- dents involved. Perry Harris, senior, stated that the industrial arts program, “gives me something to fall back on later in life.

The main objective of the math department, according to department head Don Priest, was to stimulate the intellectual activity of students and to give them the basic skills needed for jobs and Iviing. With more students enrolling in math courses, there proved to be a problem that was not limited to the math department — lack of space. With math courses spread out over the second floor of high school as well as in the Administration Build- ing, teachers and students experienced hassles. The science department prepared students for life in tomorrow's modern world. Exploring differ- ent scientific areas stimulated students to think about solutions for the problems of today and tomorrow. According to department head Bill Brent, The science department is trying to provide a program for those students who are planning careers in a science-related field as well as for those students who take science for general interest purposes and background information. We believe we now offer some science courses that will be beneficial to everyone. (4) 34 • Science-Math 1.

The administrators were well a ware of RHS’s problems, and they did what they could to try to solve them. Probably the main concern of the administra- tion in 1975-76 was promoting the bond issue for a new high school, “the school board went about it well. They did a good job of planning it out, RHS principal Jerry Thornsberry commented. Yet despite extensive campaigning by students, fac- ulty, and administrators, the $2.2 million bond issue placed on the April 6 ballot failed. Administrators initiated a new attendance pol- icy, but like last year’s, it was not faultless. Assist- ant Principal Robert Ballenger recognized the problems but said hopefully, I look for some changes next year. Also assisting in the direction of the school were the counselors, who handled various tasks including personal problems, to college and career planning, taking care of student records and scheduling. “The overall attitude of the student body is commendable,” Mr. Ballenger said. Overall, it has been a good school year. Administration • 39 either rain, sleet, snow nor hail kept some of the most impor- tant RHS staff away from their varied jobs. From dawn to dusk, the RHS janitors diligently swept floors, emptied trash cans and cleaned up. And yet more often than not these loyal janitors had to put up with a lot of garbage from the stu- dents. Always busy, RHS's polished set of secretaries were seemingly in perpetual motion. Signing tardy slips, keeping books and trying to locate missing students were among some of their favor- ite pastimes. “Answering 20 phone calls an hour is a lot of phone calls,” Mrs. Shannon Barton explained, as she corralled another student into Mr. Ballenger’s office. Finding one book out of 9,649 was made easy by master librarian Mrs. Jean Christenson. Like- wise, school nurse June Harper watched over the health of RHS junior high and freshman high stu- dents. Cafeteria workers served an average of 700 lunches daily to a sometimes complaining student body. But Mrs. Don Meyers, who assisted in the cafeteria, took all compliments and com- plaints about the cooking in stride. “Squirrels, squirrels, squirrels! she teased while handing three hot dogs and four milks over the counter. 0) 1.

As a jun Tor, you were no longer a rookie but lacked the prestige of a senior. And as a senior you were cool, you knew exactly what you could and couldn't get by with, you were THERE. Twelve years of school proved a long road to travel, and exams, tardies, pass slips, unexcused absences and formal assemblies made it seem all the longer.

When you get to be a jun- ior, things start looking up, and you hold your head a little higher. But when you step into the honorable state of sen- iorhood — you’re there, baby! The school you were once the king of in September sud- denly turns into an immense, book-filled prison with innu- merable tortures. Screaming teachers, pacing principals, reproducing homework — and all the while, sun-filled freedom calls you from the window. When you’re a senior, the teachers get smaller and the eyes in back of their head disappear. The writing on the bathroom walls is branded on your memory. Your locker is red, and it sticks. You can almost get away with murder — and you sometimes do. But faced with leaving this secure little world for the unknown —well, it’s enough to frighten anyone. But you're a senior and you’re proud of it. After all, anyone who can make it through 12 years of school deserves recognition. And praise. And graduation gifts. And understanding. And maybe some more graduation gifts and a little more understanding.

They were led in their efforts by Aline Rollins, president; Debbie Mercier, vice- president; Lisa Kietzer, secretary; and Beth Null, treasurer. '77's power was again felt during Spirit Week when junior skills in car cramming, wheelbarrow racing and egg tossing “spirited them away to first place. Spirits remained high through the prom, but the pace then slowed as juniors reflected on the year's achievements and looked ahead to the road to '77.

Mike Sandifer ‘‘We’re too old to be considered soph- omores, yet too young to have the advantages of the seniors.” Beth Null ‘‘You’re kind of in the middle.” Kathy Markworth ‘‘Being a junior is being one step from a senior.” Kathy Carroll ‘‘Being a junior is a time of decision, because being in the middle, you can see both sides . . .

But to RHS it meant something more. It's realizing you’ve got responsibilities now, Randy Provat said. Meeting new people, trying new things, hav- ing more fun, turning 16 and knowing you've got only two more years left!” Sandy Ross added. Sophomores found they were traveling a new path that led them nearer and nearer to gradua- tion. They made a giant step from freshman high and started molding their future. As apprentices, they learned the tricks of the trade from the juniors and seniors and blamed mistakes on inexperience. As part of RHS, they elected Pat King presi- dent, Jennifer Brent vice-president, Carrie Miller secretary and Tim Tinnin treasurer. Being involved was a typical characteristic of the class. Clubs such as Equestrian Club, Pep Club and RHS Marching Band, were dominated by sophomores, and many sophomore physiques were seen in football, track and basketball. Being a sophomore is the gateway to newer and better things, Mark Hauth said. ( ) 76 • Sophomores 1.

For example, Letterman’s Club and Pep Club produced a spirited Christ- mas Dance while Key Club sponsored the annual Sweetheart Dance plus a new activity, a car rally. Quill and Scroll published the ingenious Ink Slinger and Publications held bake sales, car washes and a chili supper to finance color in the yearbook. Student Council improved the school envi- ronment with vending machines, brooms for the football field area and door numbers. And there were many, many more club endeavors. Together the school clubs carried out an important school function — they got things done. As groups, they charted new dimensions that individ- uals lacked the vision to see or the ability to reach. ome work and some play made FFA a club with a lot to offer for students interested in vocational agri- culture. The school year found them busy with a fall rodeo, basketball games, trips, tours and contests. During Ag Day, awards were presented to some of the FFA members, and Peggy Vessell was crowned FFA Queen. On the state level, two state farmer’s degrees were conferred to Doug Gall, chapter president, and Doug Mel- ton. Rolla's chapter also received a first place in farm mechanics and sixth in livestock judging at state. A tour of the MFA Research Farm at Mar- shall was also taken and a Food for America” program was presented to fourth grade stu- dents. With our new adivsor, Mr. Graham, we enjoyed a really successful year, Doug Gall, president, said. We had fine leadership from our officers. 1.

Next year should prove to be even better because we have another year’s experience behind us, club historian Kathy Sliger commented.

Club officers attended a state convention in October and then launched the 40 members into cadet teaching and reading buddy programs in which the future teachers observed, taught and tutored children. Members partici- pated in a multiple schlerosis money drive and enjoyed a carry-in banquet at the home of one of their sponsors, Mrs. Thelma Cave. As FTA opened its members' eyes to the realities of teaching, college-bound students were able to plan a more fulfilling future as teachers.

It gives you a chance to do things you nor- mally wouldn't or couldn’t do and also an oppor- tunity to get out of Rolla, Neal Farrar added. The Adventure Conservation and Education Club increased in popularity in the '75- 76 year with approximately 30 members. Better float trips, backpacking, tests on area streams for pol- lution and a spring cleanup in the works were among the club's activities. Originally organized to encourage interest in backpacking and rock climbing, the club also became involved in such controversial topics as the Meramec Dam issue. According to President Greg Lefler, ACE gives people a chance to be with friends, doing the things they want to do. 98 • ACE Club 1. Darcy Cunningham takes a rest stop and grabs a bite to eat. 2.

President Dennis Goethe claimed that FMA has put me in fellowship with other people who are going into medical allied fields. The feature of the year was an April 23 tour of Barnes Hospital in St. Louis, where, among other things, they observed a living kidney.

Other projects included a benefit Key Club vs. Kiwanis basketball game — proceeds going to Mike Peplow, a student injured in a diving accident. The movie “Live and Let Die” was shown as a benefit project for cystic fibrosis and the year ended with a new project for Key Club — a car rally. Said President Mike Muhlbauer of the year, “I guess you could say we were more active in the things we did. We had a lot of new projects. I think they were worthwhile, but our biggest problem was membership. We wanted to have a big club. V % 3 106 • Key Club 1.

At the formal initiation, a dozen new members learned more about the club and received their bronze pins and lifetime membership cards. A new activity for MMM was the concession they ran at a local auction.

We learned very well this year, as we brought home several trophies from just about every tour- nament, Bob Heller said. For those students interested and who were planning to enter the field of marketing and dis- tribution, DECA was the club for them.

Gretchen Long was selected outstanding Pep Club member for 1976, and Cathy Bertnolli was elected for most leadership, Amelia Munger for most contributions, Beaver Moss for screamin’ sophomore, Sara Viessman and Kathy Owens for jumpin’ junior and Kelly Pratt for super senior.

Other activities included a night of French games when “Victoire! was shouted instead of the tra- ditional Bingo! ; a recreation night; and atrip to St. Louis where everyone shopped and then vis- ited de Bergerac's, a French restaurant named after the famous novel.

Along with their annual sales of gummy bears, the German Club frolics also repeated last year’s schedule by caroling at the Soldiers Home during the Christmas season. Another fun-filled event for the club was the State Missouri Federation of Students of Ger- man Convention (MFSG) which took place in March. At the convention, general workshops were given including cooking marzipan, a Ger- man candy, as well as folk dances and a cof- feehouse. German Club students also met and talked to Heinrich Boell, a Nobel prize winner. The club ended their eventful year with a language fair in Columbia and indoor picnic. Commenting on the year, Andrea Green, Ger- man Club president, felt that “The year had been a great success due to the many activities and events planned. (2) German Club 119 1.

The biggest event of the year was, of course, the annual slave auction. Dressed in tunics, first year Latin students were sold to the established members of the club. Slaves were then forced to perform several embarrassing tasks including grape stomp- ing. In the spring, a musical version of ‘‘The Aeneid was presented by the Latin III and IV classes. Senior Gary Smith wrote the script and lyrics, and the play was scored by John Crowley. April found the club in St. Louis touring the old cathedrals. For the gourmets, there was a dinner at a fancy Italian restaurant, then shopping on “the Hill. “It was a year filled with work, parties, and cele- brations, but mostly work. Yet experiences gained made it all worthwhile, Jeanie Baird commented.

The club attended two Uni- versity of Missouri football games and excited the entire high school by co-sponsoring a Christmas dance with Pep Club. As in past years, being a member of Letterman's Club was something of an honor, even though the club was relatively inactive. The Letterman's badge signalled athletic achievement while the maroon and gray jacket branded its wearers as Rolla High jocks. Letterman's Club wasn’t quite as involved this year as I wish we would have been, but I believe we boosted our school spirit greatly, president Jim Lee said. Letterman's Club • 1 23 ooperative Education, better known as COE, was a work experience program designed to give on-the-job training to students who had jobs relating to their future vocations. Its 35 members held jobs ranging from appren- tice carpentry to automobile bodywork to cooking in restaurants. The students were supervised by Mr. Howard Roberts, who retired in May after 20 years of service. But COE was not all work and no fun. Included in the year’s activities were an informal meeting at Pizza Hut, a Christmas breakfast with DECA members and the formal employer-employee banquet at the Manor Inn in April. According to COE member Jack Butler, ‘‘It’s a pretty good program. It gives you a chance to do what you’re going to do in your work. You also decide if it's really what you’re cut out for. 124 • COE 1. Mr. Howard Roberts gives his farwewll speech at the COE spring banquet, ending 20 years as its director. 2.

Traditional activities such as Homecoming and Spirit Week, as well as support of the bond issue, combined to make it an acitve year for student government. House of Representatives played its traditional role, aiding StuCo with Homecoming and providing such improvements as a rubber Bulldog stamp and brooms for football bleacher cleanups. Confidence in Student Council was expressed in May when all of the council members running for re- election were returned, and junior rep Mike Parry was elected president. Newly elected vice-president Fred Mathis, citing red-neck support as responsi- ble for his victory, outlined the lengths to which StuCo might have to go to serve the students. He declared, ‘‘School strikes may be necessary to achieve our goals, after all, the end justifies the means. $ House-StuCo-ICC • 127 V ' •'« 128 • Activities ond Sports -----he days were filled with laughter. Whether shuffling down the halls of RHS, riding a pep bus to a ballgame, or practicing the “Hustle” at Homecoming or the parties afterward, we were contin- ually refreshed by school activities. Branching from the academic road were the pathways of sports events, dances and intramurals. Through involvement in these events we learned as much if not more about ourselves than through our structured studies. Such diversions helped break the routine of RHS life and made the road a little easier to follow.

Undaunted by a soggy sky, RHS students assembled in football jerseys, clown outfits, band and pep club uniforms and more, anxiously awaiting the time when their hours of hard work would be rewarded. They were accompanied by a number of visiting bands, five lovely queen candidates riding “MG- back, and a multitude of flamboyant floats echoing the theme How Sweet It Is. Despite the moist weather, crowds of onlookers gathered along sidewalks to view the parade — not one of the driest parades in RHS history, but cer- tainly one of the best. Parade router Amelia Munger sighed, It was A LOT of work and a lot of praying that it wouldn’t rain. (2) 132 • Homecoming Parade 1.

So popular were the new discoveries that the dancers up front by the band, Central Blue, were referred to as the RHS Chorus Line. The coffeehouse was nearly as popular as the dance itself. Outstanding acts such as Kelly Pratt and Bill Broaddus singing If,” Kathy Puckas and Jenny Brent on guitar and vocals and the comedy routine of Pumpkin and Beauford by Clay Sim- mons and Phil Eudaly drew many viewers. “Everything wasn’t as rushed as compared to last year, and we didn't get screwed on the float judging, senior Clay Simmons said. The dance was a fitting conclusion to a memo- rable Homcoming that began with a riotous pep assembly. A roaring bonfire fired up everyone’s spirits for the parade and a resounding 35-24 vic- tory against Camdenton. Spirit, victory, romance — who could ask for anything more? $ (6) (5) Homecoming Dance • 1 35 136 • Homecoming Queen ijmnmmting (fumt att6 Qlourt was a season of optimism and togetherness. And it showed. For the first time in 12 years, the Bulldogs posted a winning season. The 6-4 record hardly reflected the oneness of the team, however, a togetherness best illustrated in the Waynesville contest which ended with a 10- 0 Bulldog victory. But it wasn't just another win. The Bulldogs’ spirits were clouded by the unfortu- nate death of senior tailback Jim Lee’s father. Lee played the game because “that's the way his father would have wanted it.” He rushed for 124 yards and scored the game's only touchdown. “It was a spirited effort, defensive line coach Dan Heitert said. “I think it was one that both the players and the coaches will remember for a long time.” “We worked hard this year but have to work harder due to the loss of the seniors,” junior defensive back Eddie Bober said. Next year the Bulldogs will try to improve their winning season, not an easy task for the Bulldog coaching staff with the loss of 15 starting seniors. 138 • Football 1.

Football •141 - 142 • Cheerleaders 975 brought changes to the cheerleading squads as they did away with the old varsity-J.V. set-up. Football cheerleaders also cheered for girls’ basketball, wrestling and track while a second squad cheered for the remaining sports. “It was a good way to cover all the sports,” Chris Lavino commented, “but it was really too much of a hassle. I liked the old way better. Cheerleaders • 143 I Bany changes were made in band in 1975, and the biggest change was in directors. After Bert Stanley resigned. Bob Drummond was hired as band director. Throughout marching season, there were diver- sified half-time shows. Led by Drum Majorette Tina Carter, high-stepping members traveled to other towns to compete in marching contests for the first time and took second place in Waynes- ville. Marching was not the only band activity. Mem- bers could join Jazz Band, Brass Choir or Pep Band. All members were in Concert Band, which participated in the yearly contest at UMR and at various school activities. Opinions were divided on band's new face. One senior commented, He’s building on our bad points, but not extending on our good points. But, many young members seemed to like band’s new image. 1.

The key to their successful season was a fierce intra-squad competition, with each runner pushing to beat another’s time. Also contributing to the bright record was the performance of talented sophomores Bob Parry and Eric Fowler. As the year went along, everyone's times became closer, pushing the person ahead to do better. This helped us to improve as a team. The most improved and consistent runner would have to be Fred Lamar. He improved gradually and had his best race at the conference meet. He was consistent and didn't have a fast race,” Bob Parry said. “I was pretty well pleased with the outcome of the season. We had a young and inexperienced team, but we had the best class of sophomores since I've been coaching. They did a good job, Coach Chet Saladin summed up. Cross Country • 147 lthough the girls’ tennis team went winless, with a 0-5 record, the season was not a total loss. A few doubles teams (Robin Lisenbe — Lynette Law and Kate O’Keefe — Cathy Bertnolli) and individuals (Elena Robles, Lori Williams, O’Keefe and Bert- nolli) did win a match now and then, and those who lost showed future promise. “Most of the girls that went out just started playing this year,” junior Kate O’Keefe com- mented, “but next year we should be better. Assistant Coach Joyce Knoderer also noted the value of the meets. “The girls learned a lot this year and had fun while gaining experience. This experience will help next year's team to be a lot stronger. And the '76 season did look promising with the loss of only three seniors and return of seven underclassmen. 148 • Girls Tennis 1.

Although it was their first year, the girls showed enthusiasm and hustled their way to a 500 season, winning three while dropping the same. Junior varsity also finished at a 500 pace, winning and losing pairs. Though it was not a bad tally for a first-year team, the girls were in every game until the end and, had all the breaks gone their way, could eas- ily have been undefeated. “The enthusiasm displayed by the whole team was a key to our season, Coach Bob Stoltz com- mented of the 35 squad members. “This year we lacked the practice time needed to get the teams together,” junior Sharon Engelke said. Next year we will start when the football guys start their season. That will really help out.” 150 • Girls' Softball 1. Peggy Vessell throws her warm-up pitches between innings. 2.

The 0-8 record did not reflect success, but the girls on the squad would agree that being on the team was exciting and a valuable experience. From the start of the season, the girls played as a team, with no one individual standing in the limelight. As team captain Pam Smith put it, No one wanted any glory for themselves. Each game was a team effort, and this helped our morale throughout the season. The team for '76 lost five of the six varsity start- ers, but the junior varsity gained valuable experi- ence and should be able to fill the role. Team member LeeAnne Ogletree summed up the team's attitude: “Playing on the volleyball team really helped me to get along with people . . . I will miss it. 152-Volleyball 1.

Ed Farrar was not the only man to receive hon- ors. Bill Arthur accompanied Ed to the state meet after qualifying in district and regionals. Three other wrestlers, Jim Harris, Rusty Carnahan and Mike Brisbin, also qualified for regionals. Assistant Coach Jim Walsh put his feelings about the team into words. “These guys are a great bunch to work with. They really deserve every bit of attention and success they receive, he said enthusiastically. 166 • Wrestling 1. 1975-76 Bulldog Wrestlers — see Club Index for names. 2.

The play centered around a strike for a 7Vi cent raise by the employees of the Sleep-Tite Pajama Factory. The new superintendent Sid (Rob Barefield) finds he is torn between his loy- alty to his boss, Mr. Hassler (Pat King) and his love for the head of the grievance committee Babe (Aline Rollins). The real memories of Pajama Game,” however, for the cast members lay in the mis- takes, headaches and idiosyncracies that brought them together. As Puck Pukas put it, “Being a cast member in a play is a lot of work as everyone found out but the hard work was paid off a thousand times over with the great memories. 1. Rob Barefield quickly sneaks a peek from his script during a Pajama Game rehearsal. 2. Building pyra- mids is just part of the fun for cast members in Once a Year Day. 3.

Consisting of about 1 50 members, Mixed Cho- rus, Concert Choir and Girls' Glee worked hard preparing for various concerts and contests. Eight students competed in district contests, and Bill Broaddus, Kelly Pratt and John Francis went on to state competition. John Francis also placed in National Choir. Kelly Pratt expressed her feelings about the vocal class: You not only learn how to use your voice, you learn to care and give the group your best. Bob Cannell had similar feelings: Amid the work and study the students still enjoyed themselves; although many don't realize we do work hard and if you enjoy singing you’d enjoy the classes. The director of RHS' sounds of music summed up the year: I sense more enthusiasm for choir music than I felt last year. I just hope this enthusi- asm and pride within the groups keeps going in the future. (4) Choirs 171 floor is littered with papers and books heedlessly stepped on by countless feet. Sketches of weasels and moose decorate the chalkboard on which can often be found discussions on sex education. The walls reverberate as a radio blares Led Zeppelin and Dan Fogelburg. No, this was not a scene from “Welcome Back, Kotter. It was merely the journal- ism-publications room. Nor was this room devoid of people. Such famous characters as Ogie, Twink, Hotlips, Nadawi, Shaved Duck and the Darkroom God threw paper wads, broke staplers and linked paper clips in true journalistic fashion. Despite this apparent havoc, much was accomplished. No one knew better than Growler editor Tracy Thomas what went into a year- book: The chili suppers, late work nights and endless stacks of photographs. Echo Editor Kathy Sorrell likewise discovered that putting out a monthly paper was a challenge. If I learned nothing else from putting out nine issues of the Echo, I learned patience, Kathy commented. Keeping everyone sane in times of stress was advisor Ms. Jennefor Ailor. She could be counted on to lend a dime to a needy student or print that one last photo- graph to fill an empty space on page seven of the Echo. At the end of school she and students labored to finish the last few pages of the yearbook. And then. Room 112, cluttered but silent, was left to the janitors. 1 72 • Publications 1.

Publications • 173 whole school was blue, but spirits couldn't have been higher as RHS kicked off its 1976 Spirit Week celebrations. Dressed in blues from head to toe, students left their lunches to compete in the car-cramming event Monday. Strangely enough, it was a three-way tie, with 16 bods to each car (which goes to show you don't get fatter when you become a senior). Tuesday was Hat Day and pyramid build- ing, won by the seniors. Bicentennial Day followed, with whellbarrow races won by the juniors. Thursday was just as good a day as any to dress up like a character — and that’s exactly what everyone did. Such wellknowns as the Riddler, Aunt Jemima, Clint Eastwood and Abe Lincoln walked the halls of RHS. The tug-of-wars were won by the sophomores — who were also the ones who kept breaking the rope. Sadie Hawkins Day, Friday, wound up Spirit Week with people throwing eggs at one another. The juniors won this contest also, which left the week's score with juniors in first place, seniors in second and sophomores in third. It's a good chance for everyone to dress up like they'd like to every day, Nadia Adawi said in evaluating the week of spirit. 1.

This year’s dance was held in the RHS cafeteria, which Key Club- bers lavishly decorated in pink, red and white. The 166 attending students danced to the music of The City, a rock group from St. Louis, and enjoyed punch and cookies for refreshments. Candle-opera set off the coronation ceremony. The queen and her court included: sophomore Lorna Turner with escort Mike Perry; juniors Debi Mercier with escort Tim Howell and Melinda Scott with escort Kevin Scott; seniors Andrea Green with escort Jeff Stampfer and 1976 Queen Patti Weart with escort Steve Hunter. Retiring Queen Laura Tryon and escort Mike Muhlbauer were also present. Senior Kathy Sorrell commented on the dance, I had a good time, but they didn't play enough slow songs. Other comments included, “The most fun part was tearing down the ceiling and “The dance was really well organized. 1. Beth Null is slightly amused at Tim May’s style at the 1976 Sweetheart Dance. 2.

We had a lot of inexperienced people, head coach Scott Rust said. “Our inexperience really showed up in the field where we had trouble scor- ing all year. Although the team never took top honors at meets, they did capture three second place fin- ishes at Camdenton, the Jeff City Triangular and the Rolla dual meet. Of the 17 lettermen this year, 13 will return. We should be much more competitive next year if we get all our people out again, Rust com- mented. The traditional end of the honors were handed out again in 1976 with Jim Lee and Tom Wassilak voted team captains. Bob Parry picked up three honors, most valuable, most outstanding and best team spirit. Vic Davolt was honored as most improved while Wassilak walked away with the most individual points, 88. M) Boys' Track • 179 he 1976 cin- derwomen added a ray of sunshine to an other- wise lackluster year of girls' athletics. While they did not win conference, they did finish a strong second to Mexico. Track was improved because the team had more enthusiasm and coaching was better,” Tami Vickroy said. Several girls turned in outstanding perform- ances during the season, with junior Sara Viess- man representing RHS at state level in the 880- yard event. Other standouts were Stacy Huffman, 100-yard dash; Tami Vickroy, hurdles and 440- yard relay; and Bonnie Campbell, discus. An early injury to senior Karen Lewis was costly to the Bulldogs and no doubt affected their total yearly point count. But overall the 1976 girls' track team turned in several excellent perform- ances and were expected to be even better next year. (5) 180 Giris’ Track 1.

Returning almost the complete starting nine from last year, much was expected from the team, but it did not turn out that way. The team ended up with an overall record of 11-9 while compiling a 4-4 tally in conference play, dropping to third after two straight years of holding the champion- ship. “We all expected a lot to happen this year, pitcher Dave McCaulla commented, but it just didn’t turn out that way. Despite the conference showing, four Bulldogs received All-Conference honors: Bill Bryson, Dave Spencer, Tim Lenox and Dave McCaulla. But the season was best described in one word, disap- pointing. 182 Baseball (7) 1. Senior Greg Strotman can’t believe it. He's up with the bases loaded and two outs again.

Doss has been our most con- sistent golfer throughout the year, Coach Chet Saladin noted. Doss and George Lorey were both members of the All State golf team. The other two state com- petitors, Paul Melson and Greg Holman were both 1976 team captains. Next year’s team should be strong depending upon the improvement of this year's J.V. team to take the place of four graduating seniors, Geoge Lorey commented.

The boys showed considerable dedication and spirit consid- ering the fact that they really did not have a coach, although they were sponsored by Coach Bob Stoltz. The team consisted mainly of seniors, but also had a few underclassmen who promised to keep the spirits up in '77. Though the loss of top play- ers John Myers (team captain), Kurt Hilsabeck and John Crowley would hurt next year's squad, the void would be filled by returning lettermen Steve Franz, Will Cone and Dwight Look.

In flag football, there was a certain amount of conflict as to who won the championship. Accord- ing to one source, the Rednecks won, but others said a team called Buzz captured the title. Your guess is as good as ours. Basketball also ended in a controversy with a tie for first between the Crammin' Mongols and the Inertians. Steve McDonald competed in two events, the ping-pong singles against Mr. Bob Ballenger and the free throw contest against Dr. Jerry Thorns- berry. Ping-pong doubles had Mr. Dwayne Miles and Coach Chet Saladin against Mr. Ballenger and Mr. Drummond. Intramural bowling closed out the season with the All Pros clinching the first place title. The girls had an overall good response with approximately 65 competing in the intramural program of bowling, ping-pong, tennis, volleyball and gymnastics. According to intramural sponsor Mr. Wayne Jackson, “Our program is getting big- ger and better every year. So get with the pro- gram next year. (5) Intramurals 191 1.

Everything was painstakingly taken care of, right down to such small details as the rose-decorated cake and punch. The band “Sky High played a variety of songs, including Color My World and some Elton John hits. Up in the gymnasium, the coffee- house was also a huge success for those who wanted to rest their heels awhile. Among the more outstanding acts were some easy-listening music by Steve Hardesty, and some key-board arrangements by David Snoe, and Kurt Hilsabeck and some Coach Hinze originals.

To some, it’s the Liberty Bell whose sound is one of freedom. To others, it’s the door to the unknown, inviting fear and caution. But to all, it is a symbol of the breaking of the old and development of the new. Graduation and the presentation of awards for tasks well done were the plateau at journey's end. They were the golden prize long sought for and at last reached. Reaching the Plateau • 197 1.

A mother’s arms no longer sur- round you, and you are expected to walk on your own two feet. Here at RHS, graduation began with Baccalau- reate May 23 when the road to commencement was paved with words of guidance. And the end and beginning came May 27 when 285 seniors received their high school diplomas. Because of rain-drenched skies, commence- ment exercises were held in the gymnasium. After the invocation by John Myers and the pledge of allegiance by Janet Park, seniors listened to speeches by Bob Heller, Mike Muhlbauer, Patti Weart, Marc Shelton and Tom O’Keefe. Cathy Pyron and Dana Ward were named as co-valedictorians and Marc Shelton as salutato- riam The ceremony concluded with the presenta- tion of diplomas and the benediction by Brenda Brookshire. And so the class of 1976 graduated. They had reached their plateaus. They had undergone the change from the protective world of high school to the more competitive world outside. And they graduated from seniors to adults. Graduation • 199 COMMENCEMENT PROGRAM Processional. . . Pomp and Circumstance . . . Symphonic Band Invocation . . . John Myers Pledge . . .

John Francis won all-state choir honors last year by auditioning for judges along with many other hopefuls from around the state. He then went on to win a spot in the National Choir which toured Europe in the summer of '76. Kathryn Dawson gained praise for her writing ability when she won a national writ- ing contest in Guideposts magazine for her story, “A Different Kind of Homecoming. Another story was also published in the Mormon magazine, The New Era. Another whose name was before the pub- lic, this time for a much sadder reason, was Bev Comte. Bev's tragic death came as a shock to the entire school, especially those students and teachers who had known and worked with her. (2) I will not be there When the sun begins tomorrow.

Honors 211 Here are approximately two things you can do when it comes to your community: either sit back with your feet propped up, your eyes, ears and mouth shut, letting the world submerge you or you can get involved. It is not as hard as you think. In fact, many of the Rolla merchants became involved with their community by simply purchas- ing an ad in this yearbook. It might not sound like much, but it was. Supporting the yearbook was supporting the students — the future popu- lace of the world. Those who involved themselves with their school, their community, their world — became involved with life. And they deserve gratitude beyond words.

They were, like most school organiza- tions, a body of diverse personalities from mature to ornery to just plain weird. But together these fledging journalists took on the collectivism of a band of sojourners. They embarked on a nine-month journey to new horizons. Their purpose was to tell the story of a year, 1975-76, and a school, Rolla High School. Their records, the ECHO and GROWLER, symbolize the new trails they blazed and the hori- zons they reached. They traveled on —and hoped their readers would do the same.

We gain a new insight that no longer allows us to go on as we have before. Each must pick a road to follow. The choice is our experiences and is regulated by our values. The pathways we choose will be paved with our hopes, dreams and aspirations and will determine the direction we take on other, more important roads in the future. So for now we must take time to reflect on the yesterdays . . . dream of the tomorrows and then . . .
